[QUOTE="Harkiran Kaur, post: 209352, member: 18224"] Sikh Rehet Maryada Article XVIII - Anand Sanskar b. A Sikh’s daughter must be married to a Sikh. (and by extension, a Sikh's son also - the only reason its worded this way - and this was explained by SGPC - is that usually in mixed marriages, it's the girl who ends up having to give up her faith to follow her husband's - for the simple reason that until recently, it was the girl who left her parent's home to move to her in-laws. But the rule applies to both. A Sikh must be married to a Sikh.) c. A Sikh’s marriage should be solemnized by Anand marriage rites. (Anand Karaj, can only be done between two Sikhs. k. Persons professing faiths other than the Sikh faith cannot be joined in wedlock by the Anand Karaj. ceremony. Some go as far as to say, that originally, it was Amritdhari only who could be married by anand karaj. The tradition was that they would be married by other means, and once they took amrit, they would then be married via anand karaj. This has since been relaxed to include non-Amritdharis, however they still require both parties to be Sikh. Akal Takht issued an edict in 2007 stating that a convert actually has to change their name to Kaur / Singh to show they are serious, before a Gurdwara will marry them by this method. We know that many Gurdwaras don't follow this though... but that is what the rules are. That a Sikh must marry a Sikh, and that a Sikh's marriage is not considered valid / solemnized unless they do anand karaj.) Now back to the issue... if he were to take Amrit, he would have to follow the above. If he does not take Amrit, then he is not bound to it. If he were amritdhari, then he would have to marry a Sikh, and marry according to anand karaj. If he is not amritdhari he can just marry in a civil court if he wants to. Further: q. A baptized Sikh ought to get his wife baptized. (or conversely if its the wife who is amritdhari, then she should get her husband baptized. This clause is in the case of two non amritdhari being married and then one takes Amrit, the other should also take Amrit so they are on the same path together. It would be very difficult for an Amrithdari Sikh to live according to code of conduct, if their spouse is not. For example, look up the clauses on 'jooth' - some scholars take it to mean that if one spouse takes Amrit and the other does not, then they can no longer have physical relations until the second also takes Amrit.)
