    The minute I change it, we can begin to welcome spammers.


    Is it really a difficult question though?
    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!

      Well, you will have non-Muslims of non-Eastern decent who will not get it. May be that is why we don't have other people here. What do you think, dear Admin Lala.

      It has its ups and downs.

      I love the peace here. So, whatever it takes to keep the peace.
      Islam will prevail, a promise made by the Creator of this universe:

      [61:8] They desire to extinguish the light of Allah with the breath of their mouths, but Allah will perfect His light, even if the disbelievers hate it.

      [61:9] He it is Who has sent His Messenger with the guidance and the Religion of truth, that He may cause it to prevail over all religions, even if those who associate partners with God hate it.

              True that, I might take it off and see what happens. But we do have a nice mix though, although many have not registered, Countries like France, Israel and Germany are one of our top 10 countries as far as traffic is concerned, Yes I said Israel.

              Thanks for your suggestion Momin Khan. It means a lot.

                  I average about 2-3 emails a week sometimes 5 on what is the answer.

                  It frightens me at times.

                      Alhamdulillah, we have a good mixture of knowledgeable people here so I am pretty sure we will handle anyone. Also, I love the mods, they ALWAYS do their job and they are NEVER biased.

                          That's really not that many inquiries If they cannot guess that then I guess they know very, very little about Pashtuns. I bet you could ask "From what country are most Pakistanis from?" and there would be people e-mailing you for that too lol
