Priests of holy room targeted and gun down

Report says, in Oak Creek Wisconsin, a gunman entered the Sikh Temple and open fire. First killing two outside the chapel and then entered the Holy Room. He apparently targeted the Priests, fatally shot four. In exchange with police the shoter became the victim Clearly the gunman knew that there was no God there standing by guard,  to protect worshipers from his bullets. Where was Allah/God at time of these grisly murders--Sleeping perhaps. Are the religious bibles fiction?
