Turban (Sikhism) - Prohibition of Caps

Prohibition of Caps

A man born into a Sikh Family should only wear a turban. For sikhs the wearing of caps is prohibited. It is written in SGGS "Hoye Sikh Sirr Topi Dhare Saat Janam Kushti Hoye Mare" sikhs who wear hats, or caps have to be born 7 times as korris. Still many sikhs wear caps just for fashion despite of knowing this fact which is considered wrong by many Orthodox Sikhs.

Famous quotes containing the words prohibition and/or caps:

    During Prohibition days, when South Carolina was actively advertising the iodine content of its vegetables, the Hell Hole brand of ‘liquid corn’ was notorious with its waggish slogan: ‘Not a Goiter in a Gallon.’
    —Administration in the State of Sout, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    ... people were so ridiculous with their illusions, carrying their fools’ caps unawares, thinking their own lies opaque while everybody else’s were transparent, making themselves exceptions to everything, as if when all the world looked yellow under a lamp they alone were rosy.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
