  • Bayazid Ansari and Roushaniya Movement: a Conservative Cult Or a Nationalist Endeavor?
    Himayatullah Yaqubi BAYAZID ANSARI AND ROUSHANIYA MOVEMENT: A CONSERVATIVE CULT OR A NATIONALIST ENDEAVOR? This paper deals with the emergence of Bayazid Ansari and his Roushaniya Movement in the middle of the 16th century in the north-western Pakhtun borderland. The purpose of the paper is to make comprehensive analyses of whether the movement was a militant cult or a struggle for the unification of all the Pakhtun tribes? The movement initially adopted an anti- Mughal stance but side by side it brought stratifications and divisions in the society. While taking a relatively progressive and nationalist stance, a number of historians often overlooked some of its conservative and militant aspects. Particularly the religious ideas of Bayazid Ansari are to be analyzed for ascertaining that whether the movement was nationalist in nature and contents or otherwise? The political and Sufi orientation of Bayazid was different from the established orders prevailing at that time among the Pakhtuns. An attempt would be made in the paper to ascertain as how much support he extracted from different tribes in the Pakhtun region. From the time of Mughal Emperor Babur down to Aurangzeb, the whole of the trans-Indus Frontier region, including the plain and the hilly tracts was beyond the effective control of the Mughal authority. The most these rulers, including Sher Shah, himself a Ghalji, did was no more than to secure the hilly passes for transportation. However, the Mughal rulers regarded the area not independent but subordinate to their imperial authority. In the geographical distribution, generally the area lay under the suzerainty of the Governor at Kabul, which was regarded a province of the Mughal Empire.

The study reveals how the ALP emerged as a compromise between the US ambition to scale up the use of local militias and the Afghan president’s attempts to control the local armed groups and the flow of patronage that the US support to these groups represented.

  • The Impact of US Invasion in Afghanistan on the Tribal Culture of Waziristan
    The Impact of US Invasion in Afghanistan on the Tribal Culture of Waziristan Habib Ullah Muhammad Hanif Khalil ABSTRACT The tribal culture of Pashtuns inhabiting the North-Western border of Pakistan has evolved over a long time spreading over several centuries. Given its unique geographical location, barren terrains and above all its distance from the centre has enabled the Pashtun tribesmen to preserve their ancestral culture in its natural form. The US invasion of Afghanistan, however, caused unprecedented rupture in the tribal society, affecting almost every part of the Pashtun culture. This paper gives a critical analysis of some of the basic Pashtun’s cultural values practiced in Waziristan that have undergone dynamic changes as a result of the rising militancy in the region. These values include: Panah (Pashto: Asylum), Melmastya (Pashto: Hospitality), Badal (Pashto: Revenge), Tigah (Pashto: Ceasefire) etc, which in combine constitute Pashtunwali, a major component of the Pashtun culture. These cultural values are interpreted and analyzed both in the pre and post-9/11 period in order to Ph.D Scholar, NIPS, Quaid-i-Azam University, Islamabad. Associate Professor, NIPS, Quaid-i-Azam University, Islamabad. 124 Pakistan Journal of History and Culture, Vol. XL, No. 1, 2019 know the level of change they have experienced during War on Terror (WOT). Introduction Culture is not a static thing; rather it is a product of an evolutionary process taking long time to evolve. The culture of tribal periphery, away from modern influences, even takes longer time to evolve. Its evolutionary character not only keeps it alive but updates it according to the changing circumstances.1 The more the process of change in culture is smooth and free, the more it will be stable and lasting.
