Do you have friend who is a Sikh and practice Sikhism?
Sikhism means a strong and able disciple. A Sikh is a person who believes in One God and the teachings of the Ten Gurus - the Sikh holy book (Guru Granth Sahib).
Sikhs are bound to wear five items, known as the 5Ks, on them at all times. They wear them out of respect for the tenth prophet, Guru Gobind Singh, who sacrify himself for the other religion. They also wear them out of a sense of duty.
The 5 items are: Kaysh, Kanga, Kara, Kirpan & Kacha which translate into: Uncut hair, small comb, bangle, small sword and shorts.
