Whats with all the grooming gangs out there? No we are not. Of course we are really good friends without a doubt (Sikhs and Punjabi Muslims) but we are not one community, and we do NOT inter-marry. So you mean we wait until trouble knocks on our door?

Thanks, I'll make him aware.

Want to check for a friend. Has anyone traveled to Delhi via Paris on Air France? How is their attitude towards Sikhs in general, like do they ever/still ask you to remove your turban?

Who is asking you guys to read this thread, or even come to this forum for that matter? Move on with your lives and don't dictate to others what they should talk about or not talk about. We are NOT under ISIS rule (thank God) and are free to talk about whatever we want.

Sorry, I am no more fulfilling any responsibility on this forum which I used to earlier.

Everyone is feeling proud of Sardar Hari Singh Nalwa, but lets also remember what kind of high moral character and spotless integrity he had. The day we regain that level of high moral character and spotless integrity, glory itself will run to the feet of the Khalsa.

We will continue this discussion and we will continue to condemn their actions with every breath. The whole world will continue to pray for the safety of all those communities suffering because of the ISIS and also for the annihilation of that monstrous brigade from the face of the earth. Yes, we will continue.

It is used as a derogatory term referring to Muslims. The reason might be known to the ones who use them.

No they are not.

Then you do have a super-weight personality! :D :D

ਵੀਰ, ਇਤਿਹਾਸ ਦੇ ਫਲਸਫੇ ਕੁੱਤਿਆਂ ਅੱਗੇ ਪੜਨ ਨਾਲ ਕੋਈ ਫਾਇਦਾ ਨਹੀਂ | ਉਹ ਸਿਰਫ ਸੋੱਟੀ ਦੀ ਜੁਬਾਨ ਸਮਝਦੇ ਨੇ | ਨਾਲੇ ਅੱਜ ਸਾਡੇ ਵਿਚ ਵੀ ਕਿਸੀ ਹੱਦ ਤਕ ਓਹ ਗੱਲ ਨਹੀਂ ਜੋ ਪਹਿਲਾਂ ਸੀ | ਸਰਦਾਰ ਹਰਿ ਸਿੰਘ ਨਲਵਾ ਦੀਆਂ ਅਸੀਂ ਗੱਲਾਂ ਕਰਦੇ ਹਾਂ, ਪਰ ਇਹ ਭੁੱਲ ਜਾਂਦੇ ਹਾਂ ਕੀ ਉਹਨਾ ਦਾ ਕਿਰਦਾਰ ਕਿੰਨਾ ਉਚਾ ਸੁੱਚਾ ਸੀ | ਅੱਜ ਸਾਡੇ ਕੋਲ ਕਿਥੇ ਰਹਿ ਗਇਆ ਉੱਦਾਂ ਦਾ ਕਿਰਦਾਰ? ਪੰਜਾਬੀ ਗੀਤਾਂ ਤੋਂ ਚੰਗੀ ਤਰਾਂ ਪਤਾ ਲਾਗ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ | So I will repeat, ਜਿਸ ਦਿਨ ਆਪਣਾ ਇਤਿਹਾਸ ਸਾੰਨੂ ਆਪ ਚੇਤੇ ਆ ਗਇਆ, ਓਸ ਦਿਨ ਸਾਡੀਆਂ ਸੂਰਤਾਂ ਵੇਖ ਕੇ ਇਹਨਾ ਨੂ ਆਪਣੇ ਆਪ ਚੇਤੇ ਆ ਜਾਣਾ | Of course! Veer don't underestimate the power of our unity. We come with a package where we perform best when outnumbered. You know the history better. Chamkaur, Gurdas Nangal, Saragarhi, Amritsar 1984, we were a fraction of the foes we faced yet made them scream. If not a real battlefield, lets do the same in an economic scenario.

Then its about time we showed them the real deal "this is how Sikhs are". How many non-Sikhs have you put to shame each time they cracked a Sardar joke in front of you? How many have you smacked? The time has come to tell them we will not tolerate any more. They banned Kaum De Heere, you should promise yourself that you won't spend a single cent/penny ever again on an Indian movie. If economy is the language they understand, then lets hit them there.

See that is exactly the kind of mentality and attitude that is damaging us. We need to stop looking at ourselves like barking dogs first of all. Secondly, a Sikh is not limited to his/her sphere of action. If we resolve to do something we can do it anywhere, India or outside India. Everyone does, not saying to leave it all. The least we can do is atleast be firmly vocal in what we feel is right, and yes, I repeat, stay united. Don't rush at each other's throats just because we disagree.

Veerji, usually in such relationships one partner always tends to have a "heavier" personality if I may say. Its easy to say everything is equal but reality is different. Lets presume a Sikh man ends up marrying say a Catholic bibi. You and I will very much expect him to bring her to Sikhi. Now what if the reverse happens? What if her personality is "heavier" than his, and she has an impact on him causing him to quit being a Sikh? Unless and until he is a committed GurSikh (in which case he would have married a committed GurSikh Bibi), you have a 50-50 chance of her coming into Sikhi or him becoming a Christian. Thus the practice of a Sikh marrying only a Sikh, via arranged/love marriage. The worst part comes for the kids who don't know what to follow. Its easy to say "I will let my kids choose their path", but when the time comes, lol, trust me, most of us would think again Just my 2 cents, and please correct me wherever I might be wrong.

Khalsa jee! Only benti to Sikh qaum everywhere is PLEASE stay united at ALL times. Why do we always keep forgetting our might and end up making a joke out of ourselves? We are the same people who caused the world's "largest democracy" to change its decision about hanging Bhai Rajoana once we showed them our true orange colors of unity all over the globe. Every single Sikh with every breath protested Bhai Sahib's hanging, and here we are after 2.5 years, they are still slapping their foreheads wondering what to do. This is our might! Then why do we start acting like helpless victims and forget what we are made of? This is the kind of "broken backbone" mentality that has delayed justice for so long, and one of the main causes is lack of unity. ਕੋਈ ਵ ਗੈਰ-ਸਿਖ, ਭਾਵੇਂ ਓਹ ਇੱਕ ਜਾਂ ਇੱਕ ਤੋਂ ਵੱਧ ਬੰਦਾ ਹੋਵੇ, ਭਾਵੇਂ ਓਹ ਇੱਕ ਜਾਂ ਇੱਕ ਤੋਂ ਵੱਧ ਸੰਸਥਾ ਹੋਵੇ, ਭਾਵੇਂ ਓਹ ਇੱਕ ਜਾਂ ਇੱਕ ਤੋਂ ਵੱਧ ਸੂਬਾ ਹੋਵੇ, ਭਾਵੇਂ ਓਹ ਇੱਕ ਜਾਂ ਇੱਕ ਤੋਂ ਵੱਧ ਸਰਕਾਰ ਹੋਵੇ, ਭਾਵੇਂ ਓਹ ਇੱਕ ਜਾਂ ਇੱਕ ਤੋਂ ਵੱਧ ਦੇਸ਼ ਹੀ ਕਿਓਂ ਨਾ ਹੋਵੇ, ਕਿਸੇ ਦੀ ਔਕਾਤ ਨਹੀਂ ਸਾਡੇ ਨਾਲ ਉਚੀ ਆਵਾਜ ਵਿਚ ਗੱਲ ਵੀ ਕਰ ਜਾਵੇ | ਪਰ ਪੁਆੜਾ ਇਹ ਹੈ ਕੀ ਅਸੀਂ ਇਹੋ ਜੇਹਿਆ ਨੂ ਆਪ ਮੌਕੇ ਦਿੰਦੇ ਹਾਂ, ਕੀ ਆਜੋ ਸਾਨੂ ਆਕੇ ਛਿੱਤਰ ਮਾਰੋ | Where is that spirit of Bhai Bota Singh and Bhai Garja Singh which stood against all odds and defied the tyrant authority. ਲੀਡਰਾਂ, ਮੰਤਰੀਆਂ, ਤੇ ਧਾਰਮਿਕ ਠੇਕੇਦਾਰਾਂ ਨੇ ਭਿਖਾਰੀ ਬਣਾ ਕੇ ਰਖ ਦਿੱਤਾ ਜਿਸਨੂ ਅਸੀਂ ਬੱਬਰ ਸ਼ੇਰਾਂ ਦੀ ਕੌਮ ਕਹਿੰਦੇ ਹਾਂ | ਹੁੰਦਾ ਸਾਡਾ ਕੋਈ ਲੀਡਰ, ਜਿਹੜਾ ਇਹਨਾ ਨੂ ਕਹਿੰਦਾ ਮੂਹ ਤੇ, ਕੀ ਸਿੱਦੀ ਤਰਾਂ ਬੰਦੇ ਬਣ ਜਾਓ, ਨਹੀਂ ਤੇ ਬਨਾਉਣੇ ਵੀ ਜਾਣਦੇ ਹਾਂ, ਤਾਂ ਇਹਨਾ ਨੂ ਪਤਾ ਲਗਦਾ ਸਿਖ ਚੀਜ ਕੀ ਨੇ | ਜਦੋਂ ਦੇਖੋ protest, petition, march, ਹਾਂ ਠੀਕ ਹੈ ਮੈਂ ਇਹਨਾ ਨੂ ਗਲਤ ਨਹੀਂ ਕਹਿੰਦਾ | ਪਰ ਇਹ ਸਬ ਕਰਕੇ ਮਿਲਿਆ ਵੀ ਕੀ ਹੈ? ਇੱਕ UNO ਵਰਗੀ ਕਲ ਦੀ ਜੰਮੀ ਸੰਸਥਾ ਤੋਂ ਅਸੀਂ ਇਹ ਵੀ ਨਹੀਂ ਮਨਵਾ ਸਕੇ ਕੀ 1984 ਇੱਕ genocide ਸੀ | ਓਹਨਾ ਨੇ ਵੀ 1984 ਨੂ human rights violations ਕਹਿ ਕੇ ਗੱਲ ਰਫ਼ਾ ਦਫ਼ਾ ਕਰ ਦਿੱਤੀ | ਕੀ ਮਿਲਿਆ ਕਰਕੇ protest, petition, march? ਤੁਸੀਂ ਪਾਈ ਜਾਓ ਰੌਲਾ, ਕਿਸੀ ਨੇ ਨਹੀਂ ਸੁਣਨਾ | ਭਾਈ ਜਰਨੈਲ ਸਿੰਘ ਜੀ ਨੇ ਤਾਂ ਜੁੱਤੀ ਸੁੱਟੀ ਸੀ, ਗੁਰੂ ਸਾਹਿਬ ਮਹਿਰ ਕਰਣ, ਹੁਣ ਕੋਈ ਇਹਨਾ ਨੂ ਫੜ ਕੇ ਗਿੱਲੀ ਜੁੱਤੀਆਂ ਇਹਨਾ ਦੇ ਸਿਰ ਵਿਚ ਮਾਰੇ | ਇਹ ਨਜ਼ਾਰਾ ਰੋਜ ਮੀਡਿਆ ਵਿਚ ਨਜਰ ਆਵੇ, ਫੇਰ ਇਹਨਾ ਨੂ ਪਤਾ ਲੱਗੇ ਕੀ ਸਿਖਾਂ ਨੂ ਭਿਖਾਰੀ ਸਮਝਣ ਦੀ ਗਲਤੀ ਹੋਰ ਨਹੀਂ ਕਰ ਸਕਦੇ | ਮੇਰੀ ਗੱਲ ਨੂ mind ਨਾ ਕਰਿਓ ਵੀਰੋ, ਪਰ ਤੁਸੀਂ ਜਿੰਨਾ ਮਰਜੀ social media ਤੇ ਬੋਲੀ ਜਾਓ "ਅਸੀਂ ਤੁਹਾਡੀਆਂ ਧੀਆਂ ਬਚਾਈਆਂ, ਅਸੀਂ ਅਫਗਾਨੀਆਂ ਨੂ ਹਰਾਯਾ ਜੋ ਕਿਸੀ ਤੋਂ ਨਹੀਂ ਸੀ ਹਾਰਦੇ", ਕੋਈ ਫਾਇਦਾ ਨਹੀਂ | ਅਗਲੇ ਹੱਸ ਕੇ ਪੁਛਦੇ ਨੇ "ਸਰਦਾਰ ਜੀ, ਫਿਰ 47 ਔਰ 84 ਮੇਂ ਅਪਨੀ ਔਰਤੇਂ ਭੀ ਬਚਾ ਲੇਤੇ?" ਕੀ ਜਵਾਬ ਹੈ ਇਸ ਗੱਲ ਦਾ? ਕਾਫੀ ਹੋ ਗਿਆ, ਮੈਂ 5 ਸਾਲ ਪਹਿਲਾਂ ਵੀ ਆਹੀ ਸ਼ੋਰ ਮਚਾਇਆ ਸੀ ਕੀ ਜਿਹੜਾ ਤੁਹਾਨੂ ਮਜਾਕ ਸਮਝੇ ਉਹਦਾ ਉਹੀ ਹਾਲ ਕਰੋ ਜੋ ਹਲਕੇ ਕੁੱਤਿਆਂ ਦਾ ਕੀਤਾ ਜਾਂਦਾ | ਕਿਤੇ ਅਸੀਂ ਦੁਨਿਆ ਦੀਆਂ ਨਜਰਾਂ ਵਿਚ ਭਲੇ ਮਾਨਸ ਬਣਨ ਦੇ ਚੱਕਰਾਂ ਵਿਚ ਖੁਸਰੇ ਨਾ ਬਣ ਕੇ ਰਹਿ ਜਾਈਏ | ਜਿਹੜੀ ਦੁਨਿਆ ਸਾਡੇ ਜ਼ਖਮ ਵੇਖ ਕੇ ਵੀ ਪਪਰਵਾਹ ਨਹੀਂ ਕਰਦੀ, ਉਹਨਾ ਦੀਆਂ ਨਜਰਾਂ ਵਿਚ ਦੇਵਤੇ ਬਣਨ ਦੀ ਕੋਈ ਲੋੜ ਨਹੀਂ | ਹੱਥ ਜੋੜ ਕੇ ਬੇਨਤੀ ਹੈ, ਮੈਂ violence ਦੇ ਪਖ ਦੀ ਗੱਲ ਬਿਲਕੁਲ ਨਹੀਂ ਕਰ ਰਿਹਾ, ਬਸ ਛਾਤੀ ਠੋਕ ਕੇ ਉਚੀ ਆਵਾਜ ਵਿਚ ਸਚ ਬੋਲਣ ਦੀ ਜਿਗਰਾ ਰਖਣ ਦੀ ਅਰਜ਼ ਕਰ ਰਿਹਾ ਹਾਂ | ਤੇ ਜਿਥੇ ਲੋੜ ਪਵੇ ਉਥੇ ਪੁਰਾਤਨ ਖਾਲਸਾਈ ਇਨਸਾਫ਼ ਦਾ ਗੱਫਾ ਵੀ ਸ਼ਖਾ ਦੇਣਾ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ ਹੈ | Lets not put ourselves in a situation where our history becomes good enough only for books, museums and memorials.

Home Ministry has expressed reservation and serious concern over the contents of a Punjabi film on former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi's assassination and asked the Information and Broadcasting Ministry to take a relook at the clearance given to it. In a communication to I&B ministry, Home Ministry has said that Punjabi-language film 'Kaum De Heere', which is scheduled to be released tomorrow, may affect the communal harmony in Punjab and other northern states. Home Ministry told I&B ministry that some of the content in the film was "highly objectionable" and may create enmity between communities and lead to communal tension. Sources said that the film, which is reportedly based on the lives of the assassins of the late prime minister -- Beant Singh, Satwant Singh and Kehar Singh -- glorifies their act. There have been reports that Censor Board CEO Rakesh Kumar, who was arrested recently by CBI on corruption charges, gave clearance to the film after allegedly taking a bribe of Rs 1 lakh. The Punjab units of Congress and BJP have demanded a ban on the controversial film. The film's producer, Pardeep Bansal, has said that the film is based on true incidents, as per the findings of the Justice Thakkar Commission which had probed the assassination of Gandhi. "It is a completely balanced film wherein no religion or sect has been belittled. Some people are unnecessarily trying to create a controversy without watching the movie," he has said. The Censor Board passed the film with an 'A' certificate and it is scheduled to be released tomorrow in more than 100 cinema halls in north India. Gandhi was shot dead by her two Sikh bodyguards at her official residence in New Delhi on October 31, 1984. http://www.dnaindia.com/india/report-film-on-indira-gandhi-kaum-de-heere-to-not-release-on-friday-informs-information-and-broadcasting-ministry-2012622 Sikhaan nu joker dikhaao, all clear!

And so we find ourselves at the exclusive number one spot on the Billionaires Australia list of the greatest conquerors in the history of the world. And the man who resides atop of this list is Hari Singh Nalwa. The Greek writer Euripides is famously quoted as saying: Ten soldiers wisely led will beat a hundred without a head. Hari Singh Nalwa is a testament to this; the man defied the odds time and time again, affirming his reputation as a truly legendary military leader. There is a magnitude of reasons why he warrants the top place on this list and one of them is that he achieved so much with so little; whereas many of the aforementioned conquerors had the benefits of vast resources, Hari Singh Nalwa, part of the illustrious Uppal family, relied on ingenious tactics and unparalleled courage to defeat much larger armies. He lived from 1791-1837 and was the commander-in-chief of the Sikh Empires army. His military campaigns throughout the Middle East brought order to turbulent areas and suppressed various uprisings. Despite having much smaller numbers, he defeated armies across India and restored the territories to the Sikhs. Most famously, he became the only man in history to take the Khyber Pass the mountain path that connects Afghanistan and Pakistan. It is a truly remarkable feat that illustrates his strategic brilliance in battle. In 1804 Hari Singh Nalwa was attacked by a tiger while on a hunt. Refusing the help of any of his fellow hunters, the great leader tackled the beast with his bare hands and broke its jaw, killing it instantly and earning him the moniker Baagh Maar (Tiger-killer). There is not a military leader in the world that has not heard about and studied the exploits of Hari Singh Nalwa. He remains a revered military figure who defeated his adversaries time and time again without the help of a giant empire behind him. If youre intrigued to to know just how such a small group of men, lead by Nalwa, were able to defeat great armies, Billionaires Australia would like to invite you to learn a bit more about the strength of both mind and body that these men boasted. Nalwa was known for popularising certain martial arts which helped to train these men to be perfect warriors, with the discipline and strength to do anything they set their minds to. These skills have been passed through the generations and are still practiced today.

oh tuhada bhala hoje !!! Cairo: Here’s the latest wacky fatwa out of Egypt. An Egyptian preacher made headlines after he issued a controversial fatwa (religious proclamation) giving a man the right to peep on his future wife while she is showering before he marries her. Usama al-Qawsi, a salafist preacher, confidently stated in a video that it is acceptable for a man to “hide” while watching his wife-to-be shower as long as his intentions are “pure.” 'If you were really honest and wanted to marry that woman, and you were able to hide and watch her in secret, see the things that she wouldn’t usually let you see before marrying her, then it is acceptable as long as your intentions are pure," he said. In Islam, women are forbidden to reveal parts of their body other than their hands and faces to males, except to their husbands and direct family members. His provocative fatwa was quickly rejected by the Egyptian Minister of Religious Endowments Mohammad Mukhtar. "Where is the glory and masculinity in watching a woman shower? Would you allow this to happen to your daughter? If it was OK with you then it isn’t with the conservative, civilized Muslim and Christian societies – they disapprove of it. Besides, Islam preaches that modesty should be in our nature and all religions concur." he was quoted as saying by Al Bawaba, a Jordan-based English-language news network. http://www.sify.com/news/its-okay-to-spy-on-women-who-are-showering-egyptian-imam-news-topnews-oiulCdaihggjg.html
