Poetry provides some remarkable historical, cultural, and geographical facts and its literary legacy of a particular country. Understanding the poetic forms is important in order to understand the themes and the styles of the poetry of the poets. All the Persian poets in some points of the time composed in the Rubai form which is very common till now among the past and present generation across Afghanistan. This paper is an overview of Rubai as a classical form of Poetry in Persian Literature. Rubai has its significant role in the society with different stylistic and themes related to the cultural, social, political, and gender based issues. The key features of Rubai are to be eloquent, spontaneous and ingenious. In a Rubai the first part is the introduction which is the first three lines that is the sublime for the fourth line of the poem. It represents the idea if sublet, pithy and clever. It also represents the poets’ literary works, poetic themes, styles, and visions. Key Words: Rubai, Classic, Poetry, Persian, Literature, Quatrain, 1. INTRODUCTION: Widespread geography of Persian speakers during the past centuries in the history of Afghanistan like many other countries, it can be seen and felt that only great men were trained in the fields of art and literature.

  • The Tragic Life of Rabia Balkhi
    The Tragic Life of Rabia Balkhi Abdul Hai Habibi The ancient city of Balkh, known as the mother of cities, is a myriad of destroyed historical sites in northern Afghanistan. Among the ruins is the shrine of Rabia Balkhi, the famous poetess who lived a thousand years ago. The life of this young poetess is shrouded in mystery. She was the daughter of Ka'b, the ruler of Sajistan and Turan. She led an isolated life and from childhood roamed in the vineyards of the countryside and wrote inspiring poetry. The people of Balkh were so overwhelmed with her literary prowess they called her a bird with golden wings. She had an intimate relationship with natural beauty and had a special admiration for the gardens of her native land. Sitting beside the swift flowing streams and brooks of the orchards and gardens she would lapse into a contemplative mood to write her poetry. One day while wandering in the gardens of Haris, her brother, who became the ruler after her father’s death, she met Baktash, a slave in the court of Haris. The slave presented her with a flower as a token of his friendship and love. She immediately left the garden fearing someone may see her. It was this incident which intensified her poetic career and led to her tragic demise. The pangs of love enveloped her life. From then on she lived in a dream world and spent day and night meditating about Baktash. Every word of her poetry was addressed to him. It was not long before the rumor of her romance reached her brother who stopped her from seeing Baktash.

But today, it is a small town, 20 kilometers from Mazar-e-Sharif, the central city of Balkh province in Northern Afghanistan. Balkh is a place with a rich cultural heritage and valuable historical sites. One of the most important historical sites is the home of Jalaluddin Muhammad Balkhi-Rumi’s father. More than eight centuries old, this house is one of the remains of the Khwarezmid architectural period of the late 6th and early 7th centuries A&H, built of adobe and mud. Now, parts of the building are collapsed which include walls, domes, arch and porch, remained to us as a heritage site near the village of Baha ud-Din Walad in Balkh District. The lack of constant and serious protection of this sanctuary (khanqah) and its associated parts have caused this magnificent building to be destroyed and demolished by natural disasters as well as the illegal excavations of unaccountable people.

Appendix B MEDAIR Confidential 1. Executive Summary Afghanistan has a poor health record with very high infant, childhood and maternal mortality rates and an average life expectancy of 44 years. The greatest causes of mortality are diarrhoeal diseases, malaria and tuberculosis. Kabul city has suffered extensive damage during the past 4 years of fighting and, as a result, severe disruption of its medical services. The incidence of communicable and vector-borne diseases has increased significant! y. The Ministry of Public Health lacks resources and consequently is unable to respond in any significant way to these huge needs, or to effectively coordinate and monitor activity. Kabul presently has 22 hospitals, 26 general clinics, 33 MCH clinics, 7 specialist clinics and 30 feeding centres. Many of these are heavily supported by NGOs and would not be able to function without their support.
