Definition
The Sikh Religion, or Sikhism, is a monotheistic faith originating in the Punjab region of India in the 15th century, founded by Guru Nanak and continued by nine successive Gurus. In legal contexts, it often involves issues related to the protection of religious freedoms, the accommodation of Sikh practices such as wearing turbans and carrying kirpans, and the recognition of Sikh holidays and customs.
