Many ethnic groups live in Afghanistan. Main ethnic groups are Tajik, Hazara and Pashtuns. Only Pashtuns were exclusively called Afghans untill the term came to mean any resident of Afghanistan.. Tajiks and Hazra speak Dari, a persian dialect, and Pashtuns speak Pashtu. Hazaras are apparently the descendants of the Mongol army.

Oh okay but do some afghanis have oriental eyes? :S

I never knew afghanis spoke pashtu too...

FYI Afghanis do not speak "pashtu", their language is Farsi. Second of all, Afghanis don't have oriental eyes. Sheesh, you don' even know the difference between afghanis and other pathans.

I know that Persian (Dari dialect) is more widely spoken especially in the north by the Tajik, Hazara and Uzbek people.

I never said all Afghans have oriental eyes; just the Tajik and Uzbek have slightly oriental eyes (well I think they do).

Majority of the people from Afghanistan are ethnically Pashtun and although they can speak Persian (Dari dialect) their mother tongue is Pashto. I know for sure that most people from Kandahar and Kabul speak Pashto.

I know very well how to differentiate Pathans, it’s other Pakistanis who think everyone who is from the North and has the surname Khan is a Pathan.

As I told you the Hazaras have oriental features.. By the way, where do you come form?

When I came to the west, I saw these very Pakistanis eating, drinking, living like bhai bhai with their Indian beeradars. They open up stores and restaurants calling them “INDO PAK FOOD”, sometimes they will just call it “INDO FOOD” etc. etc. rarely will you see someone use the term “PAKISTANI FOOD”. Go to their theathers, their parties, you will find more Pakistanis then Indians. This trend has grown so much that now Indians/Hindus come to Pakistani festivals such as Eid etc. to check out their girls. Do you know who brings them along? Their Pakistani beeradars.

I hail from a dusty town of Balochistan and have spent some years of my life in Karachi. The mohajirs, though good people, consider us Baloch and even Sindhis lesser Pakistani. For them all of us are "Afghans". They speak as though they are the original inhabitants of this land and we are mohajirs, although we have been living in this land, what is now Pakistan, for many thousand years. You're correct in your assertion, they consider themselves closer to Indians than to other Pakistanis, esp. to those living to the west of Indus.

That is incorrect. Many Kashmiris if not all have lots of hate towards Pakistan and no they are not brainwashed jihadis. Is this what you call people who disagree with the way you do things?

No, you are wrong, true Kashmiris want an independent and united Kashmir, not to be pawns of India and Pakistan.

Where did you come up with this fantasy story from? All this land used to be Indian land, and then Afghans and Balochs invaded from the West. Read up on your history. And it is so-called natives of Pakistan that look down upon Mohajirs as not true Muslims, Hindus and what not. And Mohajirs and Balochs have no problems living together in Karachi.

It is really true and very true. The Saudi became part of the game in the recent 15 years after the migration of Arab Mujahideens into Afghanistan. Majority of Mullahs before that period were Urdu speaking trained in Deoband. Let us also acknowledge that who helped the Arabs migrated into Afghanistan? Let us also acknowledge that international communities have stressed, just like they stressed the ties between Pakistan, Iran and Koreas, they stressed the Arab, Al-Qeuda ties to Islamabad. Let us also acknowledge that the Mullah party that has now taken over NWFP their leader is also a Deobandi, a “Muhajir” (Hindustani Muslim).
[/quote]

Majority of Mullahs are Punjabi or Pashtun speaking. Who are Fazlur-Rehman, Samiul Haq, and Qazi Hussien? All Pushtoons.

[quote]
Now Pashtuns are Muslims, very overly religious people, and only those who find that uncomforting will call them fundamentalist “in their out look”, though that is part of the hidden “Hindustani” hate for the Afghans aka Pashtuns, which I will disclose to you from your very comments.
[/quote]

There is no hidden hate from Mohajirs. The term Hindustanis is used by Pashtoons to describe Mohajirs, we don’t use it! It is Pushtoons living in Karachi who look down upon us as Hindus and not true Muslims, because we don’t kill our women over mythical notions of honour, or we don’t lock them in a room with a blanket on their head. I have heard so many times from Afghans that say Urdu speaking people are not true Muslism like them and I am sick and tired of it.

[quote]
You said: “I agree partly with this, but I have known enough Afghans and Pakistani pushtoons to know how much hate they have for everyone else, especially Hindustani Muslims (mohajirs), and what they call us behind out back while living in our land.”

Our land? Our land? You call yourself a Hindustani Muslim, which means you are from the land of Hindus, on top of that you call yourself “Mohajirs”, people that left their “land” and migrated to this part of the world. You speak of “OUR LAND”? LOL that is one ignorant comment. You left your land in Hindustan, that is why you are called Mohajirs, that is why you call yourself “Hindustani Muslims”. If anyone hates someone, that is that majority of Pakistani hate Pashtuns. They are considered backward, jahils, Mullahs, fundamentalist Pathans but forget that unlike majority of Pakistanis, it is they that have stayed are true to the roots of Pakistan=ISLAM.

And it is not hidden truth that when some Pakistanis insult “Afghanis”, they indirectly mean to insult the Pashtuns.
[/quote]

I don’t call myself Hindustani, I call myself Pakistani Moahjir, and have you forgotten your own history? Afghanistan invaded India, not other way around, get it? And Karachi is certainly not Pashtoon land, ok?

[quote]

Now you said: “Growing up in Pakistan, you also learned other myths, like how Afghan invaders were somehow heroic when they plundered and killed Hindus and forcibly converted them by sword. There are many myths that are taught by the establishment and its propagandists.”

The hidden “Hindustani” hate :- ) Can it be more clearer then this?
[/quote]

What hidden hate are talking about? Do you call facts of history hate now?

[quote]
If you are in Pakistan, buy a ticket to Lahore, go to the city Museum, there you will find a letter, written by a “Hindustani” Muslim, attention to “AFGHAN LEADER ABDALI” and it says something like this: DEAR YOUR MAJISTY, LEADER OF THE AFGHANS AND THE HOLY FIGHTERS OF ISLAM, SIR ABDALI, I FORGOT HIS NAME, REQUEST YOUR HELP SINCE THE HINDUS AND SIKHS ARE BUTCHERING THE MUSLIMS OF HINDUSTAN ETC. ETC. ETC.

Go, buy that ticket, it’s in Lahores Museum. Also, as a Muslim I would never say that I was or my people were ever converted to Islam by the sword, it then questions your credibility as a Muslim, and of course, as a Pakistani.
[/quote]

You really expect me to believe that the kind hearted soul Abdali came to India to protect Muslims from Hindus! He was looking for expanding his territory and gaining India’s riches. Same reason for every other invader.

[quote]
You said: “I’m surprised that it took a smart fellow like you to come to the West to figure out that India and Pakistan share alto in common.”

Coming from Pakistan, you shouldn’t be surprised. Come on now, I dare you to tell a Pakistani in Pakistan that he used to be Indian or from “Hindustan”. The only people I ever found to be fond of that, where the “Hindustani Muslims” i.e Mohajirs.
[/quote]

Yes, because people like you and even the Punjabis are living in your myths that you share nothing with India, when the opposite is true. Even many Pashtoons have Indian blood in them. Just look at Karzai, he looks like he is an Indian who belongs in Delhi rather then Kabul.

[quote]
As far as Afghans hating Pakistan and Pakistanis, it is true, majority of Tajiks, Uzbeks and Hazarjat hate Pakistan to extreme lengths. There are Pashtuns also that hate Pakistan, but they are called Kabuli, even despised amongst their own people because they tend to be more Farsi then Pashto. Though it is unfair to call them Afghans, in reality, the real Afghans "Pashtuns", don't consider them Afghans. And of course, there are Afghans who are brought up in Pakistan, both Farsi and Pashtun, that love Pakistan as their nation.

There will be always people that hate one or the other, it might be you and me, in fact, it is me and you. Prejudice exists in all societies, just like any other social ills.

Isn't that what I said? No, I'm not Kashmiri

Sultan Suri rora, lets stop this discussion, as I don't think it will lead to anything productive. I don't have any problems with Pushtoons or Afghans. They are an important part of Karachi. I just have been put off by some arrogant Afghans in the past.

Is rora the right word, it's been a while when I last heard any spoken pashto?

Well, the joke doesnt make much sense to me, since more Pakistanis hold more reputable and technical positions in countries abroad than Afghanis, so its obvious who the smarter people are.

:teary2: :flower1:

You’re right at the end of the day everyone is the child of Bawa Adam and Amma Hawwa…

It just angers and hurts us when people say bad stuff about our country (Pakistan) and people (Pakistanis) so we do the same, frustration duur karney ke liye… But we shouldn’t stoop down to their level; two wrongs don’t make a right…

fantastic I don't mean to be rude here, however, when you say what gives them or anyone else the right to hate us that makes me laugh because first you hear so much hate on this forum about how much the people here hate others and 2nd in real life. The bottom line is if we have hate in us there will be hate in others for us.
[/QUOTE]

That comment was in refrence to Dhulficar's post, I just wanted him to explain the reason as to why they hate us :)

The dude at the Kabob house took long to serve me, so based on my lack of knowledge on this subject and egotistical illusion of knowledge I must agree - Afghanis are stupid fanatics with nothing better to do than make fun of others.

You dont have to agree with me, just ask that "Nigger" dude. He seems to know what he's talking about too.

Imdad Bhai,

You said: “Majority of Mullahs are Punjabi or Pashtun speaking. Who are Fazlur-Rehman, Samiul Haq, and Qazi Hussien? All Pushtoons.”

Yeah they are Pashtuns, very true, but have you ever been to their speeches? Have you ever heard their kutbas? This is how it starts, Bismillah and then, Allah tala nay far maya ke Musalmanoo ko etc. etc. etc. Rasoolullah nay farmaya, ke Musalmanoo ko etc. etc. etc. Have you ever tried questioning one of these guys? Try questioning them about a Hadith, and if their answer to you is not in Urdu, I be something…but you see, their entire memory is fit with Urdu Hadeeths, translations of Koran in Urdu. Now, here is a website, for some reason the MMA website is down, but here is their website: http://www.mujlis-e-amal.com/

Now you will notice, of course, all the Pathan Mullahs, they are very easy to see, though then, if you look in the middle, there is a person, you might not know, I might not know, but he is the leader of MMA, he is a HINDUSTANI MUSLIM DEOBANDI AKA A MOHAJIR. :- )

You Said: “There is no hidden hate from Mohajirs. The term Hindustanis is used by Pashtoons to describe Mohajirs, we don’t use it! It is Pushtoons living in Karachi who look down upon us as Hindus and not true Muslims, because we don’t kill our women over mythical notions of honour, or we don’t lock them in a room with a blanket on their head. I have heard so many times from Afghans that say Urdu speaking people are not true Muslism like them and I am sick and tired of it.”

Again replying with stereotypes? :- ) I can give you a thousand stereotypes against Mohajirs, though like the famous Pashto saying goes “Do not pock in crap with a stick, it will only create more stink”.

In general Pashtuns don’t care if you are a Hindustani Muslim, a Punjabi Muslim, a Kashmiri Muslim, under the banner of Islam he will love you like his brother, or even more. They have proved that again and again.

As far as Urdu is concerned, many Pashtuns, and I mean many Pashtuns speak Urdu far better then your average Pakistani Urdu speakers. Even the Mullahs of our cities and villages speak far better Urdu then any other Pakistani. If they consider some people of Karachi as less of Muslims then it might be because of their liberal views and beliefs, rather then their race, language, or heritage.

Today in the core of Pashtun areas lives Hindus and Sikhs safe and sound with respect amongst the locals. They have their praying places, their businesses, and there even are drug lords with their own mobs. But I can’t guarantee that for these very Hindus and Sikhs if they were to live in any other part of Pakistan. Heck even the Christians are harassed in Karachi for eating during Ramzan.

You said: “I don’t call myself Hindustani, I call myself Pakistani Moahjir, and have you forgotten your own history? Afghanistan invaded India, not other way around, get it? And Karachi is certainly not Pashtoon land, ok?”

I don’t know if you call yourself Hindustani Muslim or not, but that is how you described a Mohajir, it’s in your own posts. Make up your mind.

Afghanistan invaded India, its no hidden fact, and that the Afghans won. All a Pakistani needs to do is ask why Pakistan named its missiles after Abdali, Suri, and Ghori, all whom are Afghans. If I were you, I would also ask the government of Pakistan why they named their defense system after Abdali, whom you claim was not as “pious” as people claim to be. In fact, you might want to ask that from Abdul Qadeer Khan, a “Hindustani Muslim” aka Mohajir :- )

Now you said: “And Karachi is certainly not Pashtoon land, ok?”

Honestly I didn’t know, as a Pakistani Pashtun I didn’t know that. I thought since the Pashtuns sacrificed so many of their children for Pakistan and its prestige, any place under that nation was their land as they are Pakistanis. I didn’t know that, in fact, you should let all Pashtuns of Pakistan know this, let them know that as Pakistanis they have no claim over that land. That as Pakistanis when they sacrificed their sons in Kashmir, Kargil and in many wars between Indian and Pakistan they are still not considered part of the land. Is this why they haven’t received a stinking name change over the past 50 years? You should let us know brother, you should let us know because we as Pashtuns are under the influence of a dream of one nation under Allah and Islam for which we sacrificed everything, our ties with our blood, our land, our heritage, our mother tongue and some are willing to give up on their AFGHAN identity, something that the Pashtuns bore with their blood and honor. In fact we declared our scholars Kafirs for this nation, those scholars that were amongst the first sons of this part of the world that didn’t want to see any hate or blood between Hindus, Sikhs and Muslims. In fact, if anyone showed any respect to the “commonness” between Pakistanis and Hindustanis it were the Pashtuns, it was a Pakhtun by the name of Abdul Ghaffar Khan and his Khudai Khedmatgaar. He even out did Ghandi, when he accepted Jinnahs plans for Pakistan, though Ghaffar as the son of the soul didn’t. That time, it was the “Hindustani Muslims” aka Mohajirs that didn’t give a two sh*t about the commonness between the Hindustanis and Pakistanis.

You guys can’t hold anything against the Pakhtuns in any game; in their liberal views, their extreme views, their religious views or their patriotic views. This is why they bore the name Afghan. And when some ignorant people insult Afghans in general, even though some “pathans” might join the bashing wagon, it might be insulting to Pashtuns, Pashtuns who know, who are not ignorant about their roots.

You said: “What hidden hate are talking about? Do you call facts of history hate now?”

Rora, I have given you facts, you have given me what you believe.

You said: “You really expect me to believe that the kind hearted soul Abdali came to India to protect Muslims from Hindus! He was looking for expanding his territory and gaining India’s riches. Same reason for every other invader.”

Ask that question from the people I mentioned above, earlier.

You said: “Yes, because people like you and even the Punjabis are living in your myths that you share nothing with India, when the opposite is true. Even many Pashtoons have Indian blood in them. Just look at Karzai, he looks like he is an Indian who belongs in Delhi rather then Kabul.”

I might share blood or history with India, I might share my looks, though when we except to be Muslims, we except to fallow it to the fullest, this is why the Pashtuns could careless if they were Aryans, Jews, Khushans, Zoroastrians, Buddhist etc. etc. Today when they act upon it to the fullest and I admit with many mistakes in their beliefs and views, they are called fundamentals, extremists, and jahil chauvinists by the people of the very nation that was created under the banner of ISLAM. That’s not the sad part, the sad part is that they act like this and say all this because they believe in the propaganda of those people and their friends from whom they separated from.

Yes rora (that is the right word) now I will take my leave from this topic. I already see that many people don’t have a clue here.

Nevertheless, it was a good discussion.

At the end, I will tell you this, I have more Mohajir friends then I have any other Pakistanis. They are still my close friends, even though every time they see me they let out a Pathan joke.
