Women constitute the backbone of Pashtun society and social organisation. Their role is not only limited to home management, they have played a significant role in all fields throughout history. They have stood in the battlefield with men to defend the motherland and if we look into Pashto literature we find a significant contribution of women and their role in society.
Landey, Tapey and Naarey are three forms of unwritten Pashto folk literature, more than half of this fine and heart-rendering poetry is the work of women.
Landay is a traditional Afghan poetic form consisting of a single couplet. The most enchanting landey have been sung by Pashtun women in battlefields and during episodes of love, such as:
پاس په کمر ولاړه ګله!
نصیب د چا يې؟ اوبه زه در خېژومه
Oh flower on the mountain peak,
It is I who water you, God knows who would own you.
Pashtun women also used landey in the battlefield. We come across events in our national history where the singing of a single landey by a woman has proven to be more effective than weapons.
In the battle of Maiwand, when Pashtuns prepared to fight for their country, a Pashtun maiden proudly sent off her lover to the battlefield and dispatched this message to the commander of this patriotic war:
پر ایوب خان مې سلام وایه!
دا دئ جانان مې کومکي در ولېږنه
Convey my greetings to Ayub Khan,
I have sent off my lover to lend a hand.
When the young Pashtun returns triumphant from war, his lover greets him as such:
د خېره راغلې! په خېر راشې!
چې د دښمن په مخ کې خړ نه شوې مئينه
Welcome! Welcome home, thank God,
You were not humbled before the enemy.
[See photos for more landeys]
Other parts of folk literature are Naara in stories and Gharra in the national dance called Attan and Sundarey (songs) recited in weddings. Most of the Naaras and wedding songs have been authored by women. We’ll look into those in future posts. Stay tuned!

Hi, just wanted to say that as a Palestinian who is also a fan of Miraculous, I really, truly appreciate your art and AU. In a time where so many creators are silent and even bigoted, your art means so much. Please keep making it and don’t be intimidated by anyone for doing the right thing. Thank you and lots of love xx
It means SO MUCH to me whenever a Palestinian tells me they loved my work, it feels like I won an award fr.
I just think Pakhtuns and Palestinians have SO MUCH in common in terms of culture, community and values. EVEN CLOTHES AND FOODS. We are proud indigenous people.
And also, that being mentioned, do not worry hate does not get to me, it actually motivates me. I have to admit I was like the rest too, only trying to post a few stories on my instagram but then I started receiving hate from zionists which fueled me to do more, more, more, for Palestinians. So really, credit where due, big shoutout to all the zionos for fueling my ancestral spite LMAO

دا ورک او ويجاړ جهان,
This land lost and plundered,
کور مئ د نيکونو دئ,
Is the land of my forfathers,
دې تالا جهان پسې,
Over this looted world,
دې د پښتون شان پسې,
Over the pride of the pakhtun,
دې تباه دوران پسې,
Over this devestated era,
دې شهيد جانان پسې,
Over the martyred sweethearts,
دې سوي ګلشن پسې,
Over the burnt flower garden,
دې ورک ګلستان پسې,
Over the lost flower fields,
ذه د زړه په سرو وينو,
I from the depth of my heart,
ژاړمه رپيږمه,
Am sobbing and shaking,
زه چئ ورته ګورمه,
When i look at it,
سره لمبه سوځيږمه.
I burn up all red.
Ghani Khan about his love for Afghanistan, specifically Bamyan.

On 2nd Nov 1841, an uprising broke out in Kabul against the British. Senior British officer and Deputy Envoy, Sir Alexander Burnes was caught with a Kashmiri concubine in his house, an act which was absolutely unacceptable by the Afghans. Burnes, along with his aides were killed as a result.
Now fearful of their safety in Kabul, British commander, Colonel John Shelton's troops, despite his misgivings, reached Bala Hisar without being opposed. However after staying there for a week, they realised that they won't be able to defend in case of an Afghan attack. They decided to withdraw from Kabul. Shelton's force evacuated the citadel and moved into a cantonment outside the city.
The Afghans had been taking back occupied forts from the British everywhere. It cost the British hundreds of lives to secure the surroundings, only to be taken back by Afghans a few days later. The Afghans had pulled cannons up the hill of Behmaru which overlooked the cantonments. The cannons were used to open fire into the cantonments.
On 23rd Nov 1841, the battle of Behmaru took place, under Nawab Muhammad Zaman Khan, Aminullah Khan Logari as his Wazir and Abdullah Khan Achakzai as his commander-in-chief,
Shelton took his men out again to retake the hills which proved disastrous. The Afghans' long-barrelled jezails had a longer range than the British Brown Bess muskets. They were systematically gunned down by Afghan snipers while Shelton refused to retreat.
George St. Patrick Lawrence, who had watched helplessly from his post in the cantonment during the battle, wrote of his horror at witnessing how "our flying troops [were] hotly pursued and mixed up with the enemy, who were slaughtering them on all sides: the scene was so fearful that I can never forget it."
The Afghan guerilla warfare was something that the British failed to outwit.

i hope every idiot in india that rallies for kashmir to be a part of pakistan knows about the huge slash in budget for pok or about pakistan irreversibly ceding parts of pok to china in 1963. pakistan has been abducting and selling minorities as brides to china and their % of minorities has only gone down since the independence. everytime fatf decides pakistan's listing pakistan suddenly rounds up terrorists to show that they're committed to peace when in reality the law those terrorists are 1/
These people will scream their throats hoarse for Kashmir Issue. But no no no, we aren’t talking about the Kashmiri Hindu Genocides (all 7-8 of them, each more gruesome than the last), or girls from Khyber Pakhtun being sold to china, Shia and Ahmedi Persecution and mosque bombing, Minority girls rape, persecution of induvidual Kashmiris and moving Pakistani punjabis in Kashmir to change demographic and easily claim the region later. Terror hold on the entire Kashmir region with it’s base in PoK. No, we talk about the Indian army brutality , which for a claim that has been thrown around so much has never really had a solid leg to stand for, unlike everything else I put above. You’re telling me that I’m supposed to believe that the army that does this:
Is out their detaining people and raping women for pro Pakistan behaviour? These very people sending lost Paki boy home with choclates and clothes?!
China has been using Pakistan as it’s pup for quite awhile now. These lowly people really think that China is helping them because of one common enemy, India. Bull fucking shit, They’re trapping you in debt and planning to seize your territory, like they did with Lanka. Y’all don’t even have paper to wipe your asses, where’s your good friend now?
Yo anon! sorry for late reply, I’ll try to tackle your asks ASAP, okie :)
