    Assalam-Alaikum,

    Welcome to Pashtun Forums
    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

      Motherland! I love it and nothing is more pleasing to my ears than people referring to Afghanistan as "Motherland."

      So long as the world endures;
      So long as there is life in the world;
      So long as a single Afghan breathes;
      There will be this Afghanistan.
      Long live the Afghan nation.
      Long live the Republic.
      Forever there be our national unity

        This is how we have been raised by our parents. It has been instilled in our hearts to served our Pashtun brothers and sisters.

          It's nice to know the elders, this way one would not disrespect them unintentionally. Who else is above 40?

                              Depends on the Nuqul. Millatpal would decide that for us all. What do you say Millatpala?

                                Nuqul from the motherland is something to live for and die for.
