The man in my pic

[qunduz92]

this one looks fit to play the hollywood role..

^ not only are they the most brave, most spiritual, best poets, best singers, best attanchyan, most stylish, most handsome, best warriors, best rulers; they will be the inheritors of the best levels of paradise.

Allah (swt) has blessed them with a lot despite the trials they are going through

[Catya Sher]

Really, very true. Marvelous summary ---

YES - they will have all the suffering made up to them after by a just Allah [swt].

Teenage men should be imitating THEIR style.
If they only knew they could be looking so much better than baseball caps and unsightly gang outfits : so painful on the eyes to see.

What is attanchyan >

Thanks for the other translation. Sheen is green but can it mean either blue or green? Stergey must be "eyes"

The pic you picked [!] looks perfect for the poster
for a record-breaking boxoffice success !

lolz, you are so right. who knows, their style might become a popular fad with westerners one day. you dont know how unsightly people nowadays are. its really disgusting. style, among many other things, must be learned from them.


sheen refers to both green and blue in pashto, unfortunately. sometimes the distinction is made for blue, by calling it asmani instead (i.e. literally: sky-like).

stergeh means eyes and stargay means eyed as in (green -eyed).

[Catya Sher]

Thank you , I love to learn !

Westerners just haven't seen this style - that's the problem.
Having no other source of reference and also having LOUSY TASTE,
this society seeks lower and lower standards of attire.
T-shirts ? So ugly on women, particularly, but not flattering to anyone really.

People are USED to that look and have no imagination to look around for better ways of appearing.
Otherwise they would be able to SEE how weird T-shirts and jeans really are !

The Pashtun Look gives the air of manliness while being conservative, decent, and revealing a respect for oneself.

One begins to think these kids - and others - who wear these strange clothes in the West, and those from around the world who idolize that look because it's "American" - really don't like themselves at all, and are searching for ways to express their hatred for maybe God and themselves....

Pashtuns appear and act in a dignified way.
Really a good example for the rest of the world, if they would only take note.

I bet a few of the foreign forces present in Afghanistan are secretly jealous that THEY don't look as neat as the inhabitants.
But they will NEVER ADMIT that in a million years !

[IamDZJ]

Why would pashtons have to die like that? What a dashing-looking- and i'm sure a nice son, husband, neighbour, brother and etc- man and then dying in that way!

Not a Pashton I'm and I feel it with my skin, bone and flesh. Pashtons require help. They need to be rescued from this all. They can be helped.

Pashtons are being manipulated and led stray. The simple folks that they're, it's easily done, abusing their religious feelings and etc.

It's a very tragic and sad case. This man could well be a martyre but those who led him stray, led him to his death, and those who glorify Taliban, they've their place reserved in hell!

the thing is that our people can gather all the knowledge in the world but with out the wisdom of how that knowledge should be applied and put to use, it's as good as a pile of garbage.
we need a dictator that rules like a vicious empror and thinks like a visionary. someone who is willing to pull off people's nails for daring to think of manipulating the system or corrupting it..because hanging people in public or stoning them to death simply wont do it...no body lives to tell tales from that side of things...
our idea of democracy is scattered all over the place because we don't have any particle leaders. everyone is willing to go with a system as far as it provides them with their own personal benefits and while they are at it, why not take full advantage of it? it's not like it will last that long and heck, everybody else has done it at least once so it's about time they get their turn. you can't blame them...
we need a leader to beat sense and discipline out of us so everyone is focused on one path and then everyone gets their due so eventually no one feels cheated..once things are balanced, then we can focus on improving the government and then the educational system by reintroducing our people to their environment and each other. once we have learned to treat each other like human beings, we can move on to technology, agriculture and national defense...

kana, da sumra d sharam khabara dey chi yw dasey kas chi na zmong pa koltoor aow farhng pohegi, na zmong pa zaba ya mazhab poyehigi..zmong kor ta rshey aow mong bandey yaw bal sara insanaano ghundey pa aman wosedal razda krri..
forget what is happening behind the scene, just the excuse that they are using to cover up for what they are actually doing is insulting enough for us to be ashamed of ourselves by..we whine and whine and whine about how these intruders have been destroying us and our country for all these years but who provided them with the very excuse???? we have to stop giving them that opportunity by having some mercy on each other if not as muslims , pashtuns or afghans; as human beings who have lost so much to this pointless war.

[ScimitarXEdge]

^^^ They tried the same tactic in Egypt, Tunisia and my mother's homeland, Yemen.


Now look at what's happened? You can't impose stuff on people if what it really amounts to is Imperial rubbish.

You're right though we gave these Imperialists all the incentive in the world, we refused and resisted their degeneracy which they have infected a good deal of our populace with, how could we? Had we only complied and conformed like good subservient brown skinned men such as the Hindus and Sikhs, we'd have been much better off.

I mean look at India? the world's "largest thriving" democracy, a bastion of cheap labor for capitalist industry, good place for outsourced call centers and a favorite destination for sex tourists. If we could only mimic their "progress", think of how better off we would be?


Not.

[ScimitarXEdge]

I find this white imperialist "oh my god he has colored eyes" fixation as being really pathetic display of subliminal Euro-worship. Albiet the mutation for green eyes did originate in Afghanistan; the "Hollywood-esque" perceptions are clear examples of mind/perception control.

no, i hate white imperialists more than anybody here. in fact, i believe common white races today are the ya'juj and ma'juj we were constantly warned about by both biblical prophets as well as rasulullah (saw)

the taliban's style of dress and other attributes, make them look dignified, sincere, and appealing to the eye/senses, colored eyes or not. common "white people" don't have eyes such as theirs.. instead, they are the most revolting and regurgitation-inducing peoples of the world in my opinion.

[qunduz92]

^ by the way, americans provided themselves with an excuse to invade, helped and encouraged by the NA even though the taliban were sincere and willing to negotiate and had nothing to do about whatever incidents had happened. they decided to be bullies instead refusing to negotiate with "terrorists" and take advantage of their power and the taliban's poverty and weakness. now the tables have been turned around, and they are the ones begging for negotiations and the taliban are refusing. such is the way Allah (swt)'s ways work.

"the taliban's style of dress and other attributes, make them look dignified, sincere, and appealing to the eye/senses, colored eyes or not. common "white people" don't have eyes such as theirs.. "

babo is really right - I see it, but I wonder why few even HERE on a Pashtun site, do !
Anyone have any ideas WHY?
I'll hazard a guess, but of course it will be laughed off, comme d'habitude [as always].
I think their eyes reflect their souls and Allah [swt] gives a reward for perhaps good behavior in the past by bestowing very special attributes, like unusual eyes.

we could take some pictures of Western figures - let's just say right now the girl in Laila's present avatar. Look at the evil look in them, like the woman is possessed by demons and plotting a negative deed.

Eyes always show what the soul is about...so maybe because of certain factors such as a high degree of faith in Allah [swt], good Pashtuns who try to serve the cause of religion are blessed with these remarkable features.


Most eyes today of people in the West are upset, angry, dull, vacuous. There is little sparkle or life in the eyes.

This is the product of alcohol, drugs, bad thoughts, using the eyes for watching gross movie and TV programs, never praying for help
to get rid of these awful addictions...you can see evil spirits in some people's eyes.

These Pashtuns dont have those because of their austere life and much else

catya khoray,

you are absolutely right.

as the saying goes, the eyes are the windows to the soul. one can make correct observations about a person's devotion, sincerity, and respectability through their physical appearance and the positive aura emitted. the same is true for detecting malice, and ill-will, or evil within people in general. it can be detected physically.

[Catya Sher]

^Precisely!
Very WELL EXPRESSED !

There is absolutely NO accident when features were handed out to which soul.
If someone dislikes some feature of his or hers, well, it was meant to be that way for one's own good, AND to alert others perhaps to beware of that person if there is something malign about him or her.

The idea probably may be to encourage HUMILITY in that soul.
People circumvent their spiritual lessons and even rebel against God by obtaining some plastic surgery or whatever - I can't believe women would waste so much money on such silly vain goals.

Better to spend the time on earth developing INNER virtues.

There are cases of, for example, actresses who may APPEAR nice looking.
But Allah [swt] always gives the truth to those who want to see it about them:
their eyes will have something very strange about them, and are NOT beautiful, though the woman may be acclaimed as a beauty queen worldwide.

Smart people can discern the rottenness at the core of the soul by those eyes and perhaps other factors of appearance too, like you said, the aura emitting from that individual.

These factors NEVER NEVER LIE; whereas humans do and will give all sorts of false impressions about themselves.

It's a built-in gift from Allah [swt] so the truth is readily visible to anyone who has that ability to see it

[qunduz92]

alhamdulillah that you and i are able to do so effortlessly.

the prophet (Saw) narrated in a hadith that when the dajjal arrives the true muslims will be able to read the letters kaaf, faa, raa, on his forehead which spell out to the word kaffir; whether these muslims are literate or illiterate they will be able to read it.

because of that last injunction, it is clear that the detection will be based upon the negative energy radiating from him.

most pakhtuns back home as you once said have a very good ability in detecting the sincerity of people and their souls without much effort.
