Muslim Getting Married In Shepherds Bush Gurdwara This Friday

[Peezy1981]

This must not be allowed to go ahead. This is a direct contradiction to akal takht rules.

See attached invitation that someone messaged me. Friday 1st may at 9:30 am

Who's the brave guy/girl showing this wedding card but hiding the name

Contacted the gurdwara. The wedding is not happening,as it has been cancelled. Mission accaccomplished.

So if a muslim pakistani guy and a sikh girl gets married, its different from a polish Christian women getting married to a sikh man. Cmon, fix up... they are both void marriages, both parties are in the wrong. If they want both guys and girls from our community should get married in a registry office.

A Polish Christian will have no agenda in converting the girl to gain paradise and have access to 72 virgins in the after life.

The questions are:

Why did the Gurdwara commitee take the booking in the first place, when they know that this is violation of maryada.

Have they really cancelled the wedding ? Where is the proof ? Are they lying to play down the issue.

If the general sangat didn't find out, I.e: by the card being sent to people on the internet, the Gurdwara would have gone ahead with the wedding.

Outcome ? The committee of Sheperds bush Gurdwara are greedy and corrupt, only interested in generating money rather than satkar and maryada.

They should be reported to the main Sikh bodies and Sikh channels to ask the committee to explain their actions.

Understand family who made booking withheld groom's name. When Gurdwara found out cancelled. Groom was Somali Muslim. We can not blame Gurdwara if information is withheld.

Not limited to Sheperds Bush. Alice Way Hounslow Gurdwara frequently holds interfaith marriages. These committees are consumed and blinded by Maya. The only time the Gurdwara fills aside from one or two Gurpurabs or a 'famous' Sant/Kirtani in attendance is during weddings. Apart from the Gurughar in South Shields (Newcastle), I cannot think of many others that are not being run like a business. Someone has to pay for the upkeep of these Grand White Elephants..LOL

What really? How did you manage that~!

[KhoonKaBadlaKhoon]

How dare you ask such a silly question! They're all totally behind her. They don't want her to ruin her life by being stuck in a loveless, arranged marriage to someone of her cultural and religious background, because, as we all know, love marriages are totally not built on physical attraction, and the love between the two partners in such marriages never fades or wanes at all resulting in no divorces ever. It's a universal truth. And you're an extremist... a God-forsaken terrorist for attacking the beautiful couple on their special, magical day.

/sarcasm

Because arranged marriages between two from the same community are so succesful?

None the less, Im glad this was stopped. If you want to marry outside your religion, go get a court marriage. Hate these liberals trying to enforce their views on religios institutions.

Actually it is the Gurdwaras fault, they have a responsibility to ask the right questions especially with something as big as anand karaj bookings.

If they can't even ask simple questions like the name of the bride and groom, and fail to ensure that maryada is upheld, quiet simply they are incompetent and are not doing their jobs properly.

It's negligence and dereliction of duty by the commitee.

Personally I think they were aware of the grooms background and just tried to cash in on a wedding booking, after it back fired they're now trying to cover it up.
