There are 5894 hymns in Sri Guru Granth Sahib ji.
The Guru Granth Sahib was made so to guide all Sikhs to the correct way of life. It was decided by the tenth and last Guru; Guru Gobind Singh; that there would be no more human Gurus; the Guru Granth Sahib would guide people to the correct way of life.
The Guru Granth Sahib Ji contains prayers and teachings of the 10 Gurus. It is used in worship with a priest (called a 'Granthi') reading out of it. Guru Granth Sahib Ji contains teachings/prayers/hymns of 6 Sikh Gurus as well as hymns of 36 saints of other religions as well (Muslim as well as Hindu). To name a few.. Bhagat Namdev, Kabir Ji, Baba Farid... Guru Granth Sahib is considered embodiment of all Sikh Gurus and a living Guru, so no Sikh function of any importance is complete without Guru Granth Sahib ji's presence
