Why do Sikhs wear turbans? | Experts Explain 

One thing I salute Sikhs for is their system of serving free food to whoever comes to the temple.

My 89 year old Sikh Grandmother told me that back in early days of Sikhism, When India (India+Pakistan) used to be invaded by Mughals to capture the women, the SINGHS (the warriors) deliberately kept long hair to fight them back (to seem bigger and stronger), which also was in line with GuruNanak Ji's preaching. There is a saying that a Sardar [Captain - a Sikh man] goes crazy at 12am. This unfortunately turned into a joke in high schools, but the real reason behind this is that the mughals used to invade at midnight and the Sardars had to go all out crazy to protect their women and children. A true Sikh is honest, humble and will do anything to help others. Mess with them and they can tear you apart. I still ask my Nani (grandma) to tell me stories of GuruNanak and Sikhism and she enjoys it more than I do. Proud to be a part of it.

Very enlightening indeed and informative and well!

I'm a Muslim from Bangladesh. Once i had visited India including East Punjab (Serhind) i still remember their behaviour and gesture ❤️ really they are so kind and way better than other people of india❤️❤️❤️❤️

I’m a Muslim Arab American and I have to say Sikhs are one of the most kind and amazing people I met in life! I love you brothers and sisters no matter what religion anyone follows that’s part of their identity no discrimination

I AM MUSLIM FROM PAKISTAN BUT I LOVE SIKH PEOPLE AND THIER RELIGION

Sikhs are respected everywhere. It appears their spiritual ethos takes on the understanding that so many "reformations" have. And largely reverted to the original "God given" knowledge. Plus just a few worldly necessities. Beautiful and timely indeed. Virtually, if not all religion as it grows, diversifies, adds ceremonies and behaviors, sacrifices, pilgrimages and endless other nonsense. And often lead to hundreds of variants. For those that know, the pathway to divinity is quite simple. Time consuming yes. But how will you know? "The Truth bears witness of itself": one thing alone must be accomplished to establish "your first great step", and it is called "Illumination ". And you will really know when you have it from direct experience . All are capable of achieving it. Not even the worst sinner is barred ever.

Today I learnt lot about Sikhism ❤️. Beautiful religion 👍👍👍

Big thanks to you Sikh for the informations. We Christians are very curious about your religion. Maybe that's why some misunderstood because we were not taught how Muslim live their lives, traditions and everything. We are taught like 5% but not totally. So whatever we learn we thought it's the same as your way of life. Thanjs for understanding our curiousity.

Finally I know what is Singh and kaur ☺. Respect and Love from chennai 🙂🥰

Sikh with full beard do look handsome.

Sikhism is not part of Hinduism but is part of Sanatan with Hinduism,Jain, Buddhist.

I love and respect Sikhi surup 🙏

I am from Cuba. I would like learn the sikhism

I like such video themes, which help Singapore people to better understand and embrace our multi racial fellow country people.

I love Sikhs. My plumber was Sikh. He was such an honorable and good person.

I will always have respect for SIKH religion for one simple reason, they always believe in helping others. This is one selfless religion I must say. ❤️

So it's like spirituality but method of meditation and guided ways of living in life.

I am proud to be sikh

i like it when you say ,,with a beard person it is more handsome,,i think its true

I really like him please make more videos very easy to listen to and learn from

Beautiful people

"Waheguru ji ka khalsa, Waheguru ji ki Fateh"

Very interesting. And I concur with the gentlemen. Most men look better with beard.

Singh is King!!!

5:24 and in bahasa Melayu and in bahasa Indonesia, Lion is known as "Singa" thats why Singapore is natively named "Singapura" from sanskrit meaning Lion City named by king Parameswara from Sumatra (present Indonesia) during the Srivijaya empire..

There is a deep philosophy why we don’t cut our hair It’s related to spirituality the more hair you have the more you nourish the spiritual energy flowing through you 😊

I'm glad he agreed that there is no such thing as hell

Great share. Thanks.

Just nonsense the hair get dirty must be shaved Gru Nanak was Muslim but he changed

So Guru Nanak was born as an Hindu ???🤨🤔😊

Jo bole so nihaal sat sri akal

I feel so much peace when I wear my head turbans. Much respect and joy to you 🌻

Thank you for this!! , This was amazing

I'm white. And my father is in love with an Indian lady (it's been over 10 years, she's awesome and she's my family now) but she grew up sikh and she can make the best food ever. I just wanted to say how thankful I am for videos like these. They teach me how to respect the culture. ❤

May God guide everyone to Islam, the straight path❤❤❤❤

Many paths. Going to have to look into the Sikh system of belief. I may be a sikh and not know it

basic idea - good deeds & meditation

02:40 whattttttttt?? 😲😲😲😲😲😲

I've never met a sikh who is bad .till date .

With all due respect.I would like to ask a question with no disrespect intended.. About what happen today with myself and the Sikhs. May I ask?

I am a muslim In Islam it is mandatory to shave armpit hair and pubic hair for men and women after it has been 40 days. If you don't shave it for 40 days then it becomes impure

How do their hair grow if is always covered?

Im blessed to live in Canada where there are many hindus and sikhs in our communities. They make the world a better place ❤ I love them

In Islam for women they can shave their body hair pubic hair and armpit hair. For women they have to shave the beard and mustache to not imitate men

these are great questions

In Islam for men they can shave their unibrow mustache pubic hair armpit hair and cut their hair.

I like Sikhism way more than hinduism, there is a seriousness and structure to this religion unlike the chaotic hinduism that tries to be as random as possible.

I think it's barbaric to grow haire , uncleaned

And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: (Hebrews 9:27) The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. (2 Peter 3:9) I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. (Luke 13:5) And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: (Acts 17:30)

Thank you for letting us learn about you and your God. I really enjoyed learning and understanding your religion. Peace and love

Sashrical is what you say to them. It's the way of saying hello.

apna singapore da katong gurudwara

wow thats very interesting, i always wonder why they wear that. i just personally dont like hair if i could have laser to remove the hair in my boby i would. and my hair too. but it must be so hard to wear a turban. i mean would it be itchy? dang what dedication. and i never thought it was muslim.

Waheguru ji nice 👍🙏🙏🙏

Please don't tell false things man 5 pyare kon the Hindu the Sikhism is a part of Hinduism Banda Singh bahadur Please don't give false statements

I have always wondered why Sikhs do not cut their hair, and why there are all these rules about the hair (2 coverings, even sleeping with a turban, keeping a wooden comb in the hair, very long beard, etc), which seem to me to be extremely cumbersome and uncomfortable. Unfortunately, I did not find any answer to this in this video, other than "Guru Gobind Singh said so."

Except for the minor inconvenience of wearing a turban all the time, everything about Sikhism is helpful to become great men and women. I wish to follow this way of life, but then we should respect God's decision of sending us in a certain community. We can certainly have appreciation for each other's way of life.

Very hospitable people, very brave, like lion!

Keeping the hair is too remain a lion 🦁

Dhan Dhan Sri Guru Gobind Singh sahib ji Maharaj 🙏

🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 satnam waheguru g

I am a Sikh and I am proud of it!

The last 30 seconds hit me hard

❤️🙏

Satanaam Waheguru.

ਵਾਹਿਗੁਰੂ ਜੀ ਕਾ ਖਾਲਸਾ।। ਵਾਹਿਗੁਰੂ ਜੀ ਕੀ ਫਤਿਹ ਜੀ।।🙏🙏🙏

Wahe Guru ❤

Thanks for this!

We can’t cut our hair from any part of the body, wtf. What about-your pubic hair?

Waheguru ji

Satsri akaal. The Truth is great and undying.

Sing is king

I have heard that the Kirpan should never be called a dagger and Singh or Kaur can be anywhere in the Sikh's name. I feel that my path has drifted me towards Sikhism but a question is that I wouldn't feel safe in the UK as a white man to wear a turban but can one be allowed to wear a bandana to cover his hair and still be Sikh as I wear a bandana all the time?

I'm Pakistani muslim Skhism is interesting religion in Punjab India. I also like Sikh. I believe in one God.

Im a swiss/italian spiritual guy and came to wear a turban because of the chakra energy saving. People look at me strange and some are laughing.. crazy that theyre "allowed" to and i am laughed at.

Very educational

Can't remove the 5 k's from their body? What about a dagger through the airport security? Can they take the dagger onto the flight?

This video explains the rules for men. How about for women? Are they allowed to cut their hair? Why don't they have to wear turbans?

I have known so many Sikh friends and customers, most of them had their turban removed as well as hair cut which I don't understand why (but I don't feel comfortable to ask them this question)

At first I thought they worship God alone but in reality they worship others besides God.

Hi people Why do Sikh wear turban

ooooh. Don't know why random search about singh faith and ok, i learn something or two here. Thanks for sharing.

The jewely is what Indian tribes you are from and the hair is what occupation you are

Oh Sikas in the world,,, PLEASE , Pay attention to my sayings,, Hazrat Nanik was a great follower of school of Mulana Jalal Odeen Balkhi Rome,,, hazrat had no interest to Hinduisim at all,, hazrat never beleived in any of the Gods of Hindus with Ten Heads at All.. hazrat used to go tp Mecca to pay his respect to Prophet Mohamad.. when Hazrat said that God or the creator is every where you do not go to any where Hazrat got this teaching and lesson from the the school of Mulana Jallal Odeen Balkhi Romie,, Sikahisim was contaminted by interferences of Hindus , and Hindus faith.. Hazrat was completlely against the worshipping of one Millions gods..

I used to be friends with a lovely Sikh brother in highschool. He was one of the nicest and most polite people I had ever known.

Is SOND a sikh name I ask because my family GP is a Dr Sond he wares a Pagri

The triangle on top is a commandeer in the sink army and the black triangle is a pyramid

We cover our beard on the battlefield with shields

Yea im a sikhni and we can't cut our hair

I respect all religions all r saying one do good be good

I am puzzled, he said he can't remove and parts from his body, does he cut his fingernails ?

Thanks good understanding about sings.

I visited kartar pur sahib۔ great community۔

Can a bald sikh man skip the turban?

So even when Sikh people sleep, they wear their small turban. I am sorry for this question but they do take it off when taking shower and washing hair, right?

*Thats so stupid. Going to sleep also have to wear turban. Ridiculous*
