Not worried. There's a hint of truth in it. A lot of famous singers come to our village when there is a menjlus. And summer is basically wedding season in our village, two or three weddings a day.Originally posted by Saifullah View PostComment

Lineage of Pashtun Tribes-I
Siyaal Momand has written a good book on the lineage of Pashtun tribes. I will try to translate this book (where necessary) and post it here. We will start with the initial division of Pashtun tribes.
Please download the zipped pdf folder/document attached with this post.
To the Admin: Can we somehow increase the size of pdf attachments here, please?Comment

Yes I believe there is. Take a look at the image below.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!

Um, Ghilzai alone are about 8 million in Afghanistan. In terms of population comparison, the Yusufzais stand no chance in the world against them.Originally posted by Shaed View Post
But who cares about which tribe you belong to wrora, you are a Pashtun. That is all that matters. We are all unique in a sense. We should be thinking of ways to unify. You are a Pashtun and that is all that matters. Being a Yusufzai or Barakzai does not make you more of a Pashtun.Even Adobe Photoshop can't change me.
