Beautiful Video

Few things are to be noted
1. There is not a single Pashto written sign board or any other spot where Pashto is written. All writings are in Urdu. Although Swabi is the bastion of Pashtun nationalism.

2. The hills are without trees and deforestation is a serious issue in the whole Pashtunkhwah and Swabi.

3. Panjpir is the centre of Religious Extremsits Panjpiris. Following is copied from one my posts in another thread on this group who mainly inspired Taliban.

Panjperis is the misnomer for Ishat Tawheed wa Sunna, an extremist group emerged in Panjpir village of Swabi. Maulana Tayyeb is a well known figure of this group while Maulana Waliullah from Buner is currently a famous name specially his name came to the surface in the recent negotiations beween Govenment and Taliban in Buner. Another well known ex Panjpeeri personality is Maulana Abdulsalam Rustami from Rustam Mardan who has now joined Ahle Hadith/salafi group and according to latest information was running a Salafi Madrassa in Peshawar.

Panjperis are the extremist form of Deobandis in Pashtun areas specially in Swabi, Mardan and Swat. They are Hanafi Salafis i.e. in Fiqa they are Hanafis but in beliefs they are Salafis upto much extent. They are strongly against the Barelvi sect and are the main cause of the eradication of Brelivi thought and spiritualism from Pashtun areas. They are good orators and often participate in religious apolegetics or polemics. They are against sufism and shrines. They are puritans in their beliefs and harsh in implementing their ideology.They are only found among Pashtuns and their counterparts in Panjabis etc can be Salafis or Ahle hadith.

Many Taliban are inspired from their views and this inspiration is one of the cause of the violence and harshness found in Taliban.

Other friends may know more about this extremsit group.

Master Khana! Thanx for sharing with us this beautiful video.Bilal has captured it very nicely. Swabi is really very beautiful. Badray has become polluted. Have you been to the hilltop at the seats of the Five saints( Punj Pirs)?. I climbed up when i was a kid.

[Master Khan]

Yes, Pathan is a derogatory name given to us by our hostile neighbors, the Indian.

[khyaal]

Master Khana! Why, btw, did you Urdunize/indianize a local Pashto words by wrting it as Swabi rather than 'Swabai'? lol. Your love for Paaakis?

[khyaal]

But he seems to be influenced by them.lol

[khyaal]

Khyaal, thats how they spell it here in english

It should be written the way we speak it. It is we who have to tell others how to correctly write our native words and not the other way, i.e., to learn from them how they speak our words so that we could write them accordingly. This is an obvious symptom of slavish mentality.
