Ironically most of the people who claim to have Arab roots (in pakistan) are (follow sects ideologically different to those trying to emulate them these days).

the arabisation that we see these days is the result of Islamisation post 79 (afghan war).

Not necessarily.
The Awan Tribe of Punjab have always claimed to be descendants of Arabs, long before the creation of Pakistan. There might be some truth in it, as far as I know there are no Non-Muslim Awans. However, researchers claim they are probably Central Asian or if they are Arab, they are connected to India by way of marriage to Hindu women..

Who knows. But obviosuly, the Jaats, Rajputs, etc are of Hindu stock. I wish they would do some genealogical studies of Pakistanis and settle this thing once and for all.
