Scout Promise
On my honour
I promise that I will do my best
To do my
duty to God,
To Prophet (s.a.w.w.),
To my Country,
To
help other people at all times,
and to live by the Scout Law

Scout Laws
A Scout's honour is to be trusted:
If a Scout says "On my honour
it is so", that means that it is so, just as if he had made a most solemn
promise.
Similarly, if a Scouter says to a Scout, "I trust you on your
honour to do this", the Scout is bound to carry out the order to the very best
of his ability, and to let nothing interfere with his doing so.
A Scout is loyal his country, his Scouters, his parents, his employers and
to those under him:
He must stick to them through thick and thin against
anyone who is their enemy or who even talks badly of them.
Scout's duty is to be helpful and to help others:
And he is to do
his duty before anything else, even though he gives up his own pleasure, or
comfort, of safety to do it. When in difficulty to know which of two things to
do, he must ask himself, "Which is y duty?" that is, "Which is best for other
people?" - and do that one. He must Be Prepared at any time to save life, or to
help injured persons. And he must try his best to do at least one Good Turn to
somebody every day.
A Scout is a friend to all, and a brother to every other Scout, no matter to
what country, class or creed the other may belong:
Thus if a Scout meets
another Scout, even though a stranger to him, he must speak to him, and help him
in any way that he can, either to carry out the duty he is then doing, or by
giving him food, or, as far as possible, anything that he may be in want of. A
Scout must never be a SNOB. A snob is one who looks down upon another because he
is poorer, or who is poor and resents another because he is rich. A Scout
accepts the other man as he finds him, and makes the beast of him.
"Kim"
was called "Little friend of all the world", and that is the name that every
Scout should earn for himself.
A Scout is courteous:
That is, he is polite to all - but
especially to women and children, and old people and invalids, cripples, etc.
And he must not take any reward for being helpful of courteous.
A Scout is a friend to animals:
He should save them as far as
possible from pain, and should not kill any animal unnecessarily, for it is one
of God's creatures. Killing an animal for food or an animal which is harmful is
allowable.
A Scout obeys orders of his parents, Patrol Leader, or Scoutmaster without
question:
Even if he gets an order he does not like he must do as soldiers
and sailors do, and as he would do for his captain in a football team, he must
carry it out all the same because it is his duty; and after he has done it he
can come and state any reasons against it: but he must carry out the order at
once. That is discipline.
A Scout smiles and whistles under any difficulties:
When he gets
an order he should obey it cheerily and readily, not in a slow, hang-dog sort of
way.
Scouts never grouse at hardships, nor whine at each other, nor
grumble when put out, but go on whistling and smiling. When you just miss a
train, or someone treads on your favorite corn - not that a Scout ought to have
such things as corns - or under any annoying circumstances, you should force
yourself to smile at once, and then whistle a tune, and you will be all right.
A Scout is thrifty:
That is, he saves every penny he can, and
puts it into that bank, so that he may have money to keep himself when out of
work, and thus not make himself a burden to others; or that he may have money to
give to others when they need it.
A Scout is clean in thought, word, and deed:
That is, he looks
down upon a silly youth who talks dirt, and he does not let himself give way to
temptation either to talk it or to think, or to do anything dirty.
A
Scout is pure and clean-minded and manly.
