    Is sleeping with a woman I’m not married to one of the bajjar kuraits?

    The Sri Guru Granth Sahib (Sikh scriptures) doe not explicitly list sexual activity outside of marriage as one of the bajjar kuraits. However, Sikhism emphasizes chastity and discourages premarital or extramarital sexual relationships.
