Actually, I think a Sikh woman is more likely to preserve Sikhism when married to a muslim than vice versa.

Scenario: Its thundering outside and your child is having a nightmare...The muslim girl, would say "allah will not harm you, say mohammeds name, etc"...she will preach Islam to her child, and her child will turn toward Islam.

Same scenario, the Sikh woman would most likely calm her child in the religion she grew up in....saying waheguru etc, taking the kid to the gurdwara...she will expose Sikhism to her child without realizing herself.

Therefore, you learn most religious habits and values from your mother growing up....just a fact..

From what I know, the gurdwara does not issue a marriage certificate....I know that in Ontario, Canada - they don't if you marry a muslim. So eventhough this gurdwara, and it appears to be malton gurdwara...they would not have issued a wedding certificate.

They are most likely doing a nikkah as well, where they will get the certificate. In this case, it appears, the family just wanted the Sikh ceremony.

For general information:

There are quite a few interfaith marriages in which one of the partners is Sikh. And in many such cases (I would say almost all) they try to have two marriage ceremonies one each for their respective religion. It so happens that Sikh ceremony is conducted first (It perhaps creates the impression in the Sikh community that the supposedly Sikh partner has not converted to the faith of other partner).

The wedding ceremony according to the religion of the non Sikh partner is done after the Sikh ceremony. It is at that ceremony the Sikh partner officially converts to the faith of his/her partner. Other religions do not allow marriage ceremony according to their religion take place till the other partner converts (at least on papers) to other’s faith ( to non Sikh faith). That is why the second ceremony is always after the Sikh ceremony. So after the second ceremony, the previously Sikh partner is deemed to have officially adopted the faith of his/her partner. However in quite a few cases the men who were originally of Sikh faith may be able to wiggle their way out of the other religion and keep following most of the Sikh traditions. But it becomes very difficult for women to keep Sikh religious traditions. Islam, in particular, is very harsh on those who accept Islam as religion first, but then at some stage, want to change their religion to other faith or want to follow even some traditions of the other faith. In years gone by (and it may still be happening) any Muslim who changed his/her religion, most likely would have been tried according to Sharia Law and would have been given even the death sentence for abandoning Islam. For women it can also change their status from that of a married woman to that of a slave woman. In that status they can be sold as a commodity and may even be sold for pleasure in brothels. There are some stories of some Sikh British girls who married their Muslim boyfriends and converted to Islam, then had their status degraded to that of a slave - eventually ended up in brothels in Muslim majority countries.

In the U-tube video based upon which this thread was started, the following description was also given. Note that the Nikkah ceremony taking place one day after the Sikh ceremony.

--------

[[[ “Sameera + Jagan as Muslim and Sikh did just that. On July 8th, they had their Sangeet/Holud where their traditions were carried along with lots of dancing and performances.

On July 9th, both Sikh and Nikkah ceremonies took place at respective locations and both the couple and their families took part in them with love and respect”.]]]

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • 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.
