This movement is specially linked to pashtuns in a way as 80% of tablighis in pakistan consist of pashtuns. In nearly all areas of pashtun areas it is very popular.
Some points are worthy to be noted
a) all of its leaders called "buzargaans" are non-pashtun
b) large number of ex-officers of pak army and ISI are in it.
c) its leader abdul wahab issued an order that tablighi bayan in mosques will not b delivered in pashto, even in pashtun areas.
Tabligh is non-political religous movement, i have observed that generally tablighis lack political awareness.
so
* It is helping pakistan in strengthing it islamic basis by eliminating or weakening regionalism.
*for pashtun nationalists it is disastrous as it emphesize to finish the feelings and thinking revolving around only regional identity and is also weakening the pashtunism in its pashtun members.
give your own thoughts about this matter.
