  • Eid Al-Adha in a Pashtun villiage in Baluchistan

    The following photos are during Eid Al-Adha 2009 at a Pashtun village in Baluchistan. Two cows and around thirty goats were sacrificed that day and the meat was distributed to the Afghan refugees that live near by. You can see the beautiful Afghan children dressed in their Eid clothes waiting for their share. The lucky ones have plastic bags to put the meat in while others only have their kamis (long shirt) or a piece of cloth in which to carry home their share.

    Those are some nice heart-touching pictures. I love the balosanyey.
    Even Adobe Photoshop can't change me.

    A line[Durrand line] of hatred that raised a wall between the two brothers -Hamid Karzai

    For generations, the Hindus of India prayed for deliverance from "the venom of the cobra, the teeth of the tiger and the vengeance of the Afghan."


    The men of Kábul and Khilj also went home; and whenever they were questioned about the Musulmáns of the Kohistán (the mountains), and how matters stood there, they said, "Don't call it Kohistán, but Afghánistán; for there is nothing there but Afgháns and disturbances." Thus it is clear that for this reason the people of the country call their home in their own language Afghánistán, and themselves Afgháns. The people of India call them Patán; but the reason for this is not known. But it occurs to me, that when, under the rule of Muhammadan sovereigns, Musulmáns first came to the city of Patná, and dwelt there, the people of India (for that reason) called them Patáns—but God knows!

    -Ferishta, 1560–1620
