  • Am I Pashtun?

    Salamona,
    I always wondered when my grand father told me that his grand father was from Ahmad Zai of Paktia and his Grand Mother was Durani Of Kandahar.
    But you would find it odd that neither my grandfather nor my parents or any other member of our family knows Pashto o.O

    Does it make me Pashtun or...?

    You are a Pashtun. Try to pick up on your Pashto, and don't worry about such.
    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

      You are a Pashtun who doesn't speak Pashto. You are still ethnically Pashtun.

        but my father and grand fathers were married to mixed races usually Tajiks. i think that is why no one now knows pashto.

                      u are going to make it, kid. just hold on and hope for the best.
                      There are people today who think that admitting God’s absolute greatness decreases the value and importance of humans in the creation, as if God and mankind are rivals competing in greatness and power. Meanwhile I feel that whenever our perception of God’s greatness increases, with it we become greater, because we are the creation of a great God.
