Well a Sikh must not be neccesarily a punjabi. There's a lot of confusion with who is a Sikh and who is a Punjabi, who keeps turban and who doesn't. Let me explain, Sikhism and punjabi who two seperate things. Punjab is a state of india like gujrat, maharashtra and others, its a hindu state and punjabi language is spoken over there. Punjabis living over there are hindus. Now in the time of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, a new religion was founded in india i.e: Sikhism. Now its like a coincidence the this religion was founded on the land of punjab and so naturally Sikhs from punjab speak punjabi. If it was founded in maharashtra or gujrat or Bengal then sikhs must be speaking different language. In nanded, Maharashtra, there are many maharashtrians who follow Sikhism, they wear turban and follow sikhism but speak marathi. So u see a sikh is not necessarily a punjabi, its a religion which any body from any state can follow and not necessarily be a punjabi or speak punjabi.
The Information provided was quite good.

ReplyDeleteThank you. That was concise and explained very well.
ReplyDeleteThank you. I was always wondering the difference of Bangali. Punjabi and Sikh. So Bangali & Punjabi are the place the people originate from and thus they are known as such and Sikh is a religion. Nice to know more about my fellow Malaysians since we all come from various parts of Asia actually...
