Fariq Naik – Concept of God in Sikhism

00:00:03 --> 00:00:06

			Let's discuss the concept of God
and Sikhism.
		

00:00:07 --> 00:00:11

			Though Sikhism it is not a major
world religion, it has a huge
		

00:00:11 --> 00:00:12

			following
		

00:00:13 --> 00:00:15

			and it is an offshoot of Hinduism.
		

00:00:16 --> 00:00:20

			It was founded by Guru Nanak in
the late part of the 15th century
		

00:00:20 --> 00:00:24

			in the land of Pakistan and
northwestern India called Punjab
		

00:00:24 --> 00:00:29

			the land of the five rivers and
Guru Nanak Sahib. He was born in a
		

00:00:29 --> 00:00:32

			Hindu Satria family, that is a
warrior caste family.
		

00:00:33 --> 00:00:38

			And the Holy Scriptures for the
sixth is the Guru Granth side also
		

00:00:38 --> 00:00:39

			known as rd grant.
		

00:00:41 --> 00:00:45

			The word Sikh is derived from the
root word sisia, which means
		

00:00:45 --> 00:00:46

			disciple.
		

00:00:47 --> 00:00:50

			Therefore, Sikhism has got 10
gurus, the first and the founder
		

00:00:51 --> 00:00:54

			is Guru Nanak Sahib and the 10 the
Guru is Guru Gobind Singh.
		

00:00:56 --> 00:00:59

			Every Sikh according to Sikhism
has to maintain five Ks.
		

00:01:00 --> 00:01:05

			The first K is the case that is
the uncut hair which all the
		

00:01:05 --> 00:01:06

			Guru's keep.
		

00:01:07 --> 00:01:12

			The second K is the camera that is
a comb which is used to keep the
		

00:01:12 --> 00:01:13

			hair clean.
		

00:01:14 --> 00:01:18

			The third K is the color that is
the metal or steel metal, which is
		

00:01:18 --> 00:01:19

			used for strength.
		

00:01:21 --> 00:01:26

			The fourth K is the Kirpan, that
is a dagger which is used for self
		

00:01:26 --> 00:01:30

			defense. And the fifth K is the
catcher there is a long drawers or
		

00:01:30 --> 00:01:32

			underwear, which is used for
agility.
		

00:01:34 --> 00:01:38

			Every Sikh, according to Sikhism
has to maintain these five K's.
		

00:01:40 --> 00:01:43

			And if you ask any SEC regarding
the concept of God and Sikhism,
		

00:01:43 --> 00:01:47

			the best supply I can give you,
it's good to you the Mool mantra
		

00:01:48 --> 00:01:52

			the fundamental creed of Sikhism,
that is mentioned in the first
		

00:01:52 --> 00:01:56

			volume of the Guru Granth Sahib,
First Chapter, first verse that's
		

00:01:56 --> 00:02:01

			called the chapel G, that Almighty
God, His great and compassionate,
		

00:02:01 --> 00:02:03

			who's free from fear and hate.
		

00:02:05 --> 00:02:11

			The unmanifest form of Almighty
God and Sikhism is in Ankara. And
		

00:02:11 --> 00:02:17

			the manifest form is O'Gara. And
there are various attributes and
		

00:02:17 --> 00:02:21

			descriptions given to Almighty God
in the sacred scriptures of the
		

00:02:21 --> 00:02:21

			six.
		

00:02:24 --> 00:02:29

			It says that Almighty God is a
cult that is eternal, his cantar
		

00:02:29 --> 00:02:34

			that is the Creator. He said nama
that is the holy name. He is Sahib
		

00:02:34 --> 00:02:35

			that is the Lord.
		

00:02:36 --> 00:02:42

			He is perverted the God that is
the Cherisher he is Karim that is
		

00:02:42 --> 00:02:47

			the Beneficent. He is Rahim that
is the Merciful. He is Waheguru
		

00:02:47 --> 00:02:51

			that is the one and true Almighty
God. These are the various
		

00:02:51 --> 00:02:54

			descriptions given to Almighty God
in Sikhism.
		

00:02:56 --> 00:03:01

			Sikhism it is a strictly
monotheistic religion. It is
		

00:03:01 --> 00:03:02

			against idol worship.
		

00:03:05 --> 00:03:11

			Sikhism does not believe in our
tar, that is Almighty God
		

00:03:11 --> 00:03:15

			incarnating Almighty God taking
the form of human being.
		

00:03:17 --> 00:03:22

			And we know that Guru Nanak Sahib,
he was influenced by St. Kabhi.
		

00:03:23 --> 00:03:26

			And many students they learn the
famous couplets of St. Kabir in
		

00:03:26 --> 00:03:28

			their schools, and one of the
couplets they learn ah
		

00:03:30 --> 00:03:35

			took may summit and sub curry soup
maker and Joe sukma, salmon and
		

00:03:35 --> 00:03:37

			curry to Kai Hui.
		

00:03:39 --> 00:03:43

			That during trouble people
remember God but no one remembers
		

00:03:43 --> 00:03:47

			God during peace and happiness.
The person who remembers God
		

00:03:47 --> 00:03:51

			during peace and happiness, why
should trouble touch him? And a
		

00:03:51 --> 00:03:54

			similar message is mentioned the
Glorious Quran in surah xumo
		

00:03:54 --> 00:03:57

			Chapter number 39 was number
eight.
		

00:03:58 --> 00:04:03

			What either must sell in South
Florida or Bahu moneyman la Samira
		

00:04:03 --> 00:04:07

			Mehta bakufu, Pauline in neckerman

00:04:16 --> 00:04:20

			touches a man, he cries out to his
Lord asking for forgiveness, but
		

00:04:20 --> 00:04:25

			when he has peace and happy times
you forget Allah subhanho wa Taala
		

00:04:25 --> 00:04:28

			he forgets his Lord does
misleading others in the wrong
		

00:04:28 --> 00:04:29

			track.
		

00:04:31 --> 00:04:36

			So if you read the sacred
scriptures of Sikhism, you shall
		

00:04:36 --> 00:04:39

			understand the concept of God and
Sikhism
