Historical Origins of the Turban in Sikhism:The tradition of wearing turbans dates back centuries and has deep roots in South Asian culture and tradition. In Sikhism, the significance attached to the turban has historic links to Guru Nanak Dev Ji, who was responsible for starting this religion on earth till his successors came along. It served as a practical head cover against extreme elements but also represented royalty, dignity and spiritual power at large.

• Guru Nanak Dev Ji and the Turban: It was Guru Nanak Dev Ji who established a precedent for wearing a turban as an integral part of Sikh identity. He always wore a turban as long as he lived, which became a lesson to his disciples and an indication that Sikhs must have their own distinct appearance. Therefore, a turban is another way of expressing Guru Nanak Dev Ji’s teachings on equality, humbleness and faithfulness to one God.
