Guru Gobind Singh Ji's Kabul Hukamnama


Recommended Posts

Dear All - WJKK WJKF. Just found this on www.sikhpoint.com

Just wondered if anyone has a copy of this in Gurmukhi ?? Or could someone let me know of a book that I could get a copy in.

(the English Translation from www.sikhpoint.com is given below):-

Thanks,

SRI GURU GOBIND SINGH JI’S ‘HUKAM NAMA’ FOR THE SANGAT OF KABUL

(Jeth 26, Sammat 1756 Bikrami) June 1699 A.D.

Translation of the above.

(Note: The word Kabal (as used by Guru Sahib) is also translated as meaning steadfast or capable. Which means that this Hukam Nama, which has been authenticated, could be for all Sikh sangats which aspire to belong to the Guru).

Ik Oangkar, Satgur Ji Sehaye

The Guru will be your support for ever. I am much pleased with you.

You must take baptism of the sword from the ‘five’.

Keep your hair (Kesh) uncut - this is the seal of the Guru.

Never be complacent about the shorts (Kachera) and the dagger (Kirpan).

Always wear on your wrist a steel bracelet (Kara).

Look after your hair and comb (Kanga) it twice a day.

You are never to take meat prepared from animals killed by being bled slowly.

Never use tobacco. Never have any connection whatsoever with those who kill baby girls or celebrate the cutting of children’s hair.

Do not ever sit in the company of secretive and corrupt priests.

Always read and recite the hymns of the Guru.

Meditate on the name of the wonderful Lord-God alone.

Obey the code as the Guru has instructed.

The entire sangat has my blessing.

This Hukm Nama forms the basis of the Rehat Maryada (Code of Conduct) passed at the Akal Takhat in 1941.

Waheguroo Jee Ka Khalsa!

Waheguroo Jee Kee Fateh!!

if guru sahib is saying, dont eat meat that has been prepared by being killed slowly, is it implying we can have it when its not killed slowly?

just a thought, dont want to start a controversy

i think guru ji meant that under no circumstance are you to eat meat of animals killed slowly, but in certain situations like, if you had no food at all except for a chicken, you are allowed to eat it as long as you dont make it suffer, and THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ELSE FOR YOU TO EAT in order to survive

Also..

THis is another way this can be interpreted:

Like we all know we are told to not fight other Sikhs. The tankhahnaama of Bhai Chaupa Singh Ji says that one Sikh shouldn't put his hands on another Sikh, but does this mean that we can beat a non-Sikh up without any reason? No..

We all know that we cannot harm any innocent, but over top of that we cannot harm another Sikh UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES..

Just like that we cannot eat meat, but over top of that, we cannot eat kutha maas under ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.

    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
    • Good way of putting it, bro. One of the ongoing themes of Gurbani is the fake saint. Whether it's fake babas in Punjab or English-speaking personalities in the West, it's an continuing problem of religion through the centuries (and it's not exclusive to us by any means, this applies to all human societies).
