[1] He wrote a large collection of Pashto poems during the Mughal Empire in the 17th century, exhorting Pashtuns to abandon their divisive tendencies and unite against the Mughal army. Khushal ﺧﮏ was a prominent (1689 – Khan Khattak promotes Pashtun nationalism through poetry, and is the first Afghan mentor to present his theories to the Afghan unity, the resistance to the foreign parts and the creation of a nation-state. His life was spent fighting the repressive Mughal governments in India. To restore Afghan freedom, Khushhal Khan challenged the Mughal Aurangzeb powers. He defeated the Mughal troops in many engagements. Khushhal Khan wrote many works in Pashto and Persian, ten of which are very popular. Khushal Khan Khatik's residing and fighting is an important capital in Afghan history. His thoughts form the basis of the political and literary movements in Afghanistan.The resistance of Khushal Khan Khattak is an important part of the national and resistance to the Afghans. Khushal Khan Khattak's opinions and ideas form a new stage in the ideological and intellectual development of Afghans. What he has done for his language and his people is unprecedented in the cultural development of Afghans. His theories and thesis correspond to those of many of the great thinkers in the world, and he can be considered an international personality. He has also written Persian and Hindi and written books about other important languages. He was a well-known military warrior who became known as an Afghan warrior-poet. Western scholars consider Khushal Khan Khattak to be a national hero and poet in Afghanistan. Khushal Khan lived at the foot of the Hindu Kush Mountains in what is now Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in Pakistan. [edit] Early life Khushal Khan was born in or about 1613 into a Pashtun of the Khattak tribe. He was the son of Malik Shahbaz Khan Khattak of Akora, Mughal ruled India (now in the Nowshera District of Kyber-Pakthunkhwa, in Pakistan). His grandfather, Malik Akoray, was the first Khattak to enjoy widespread fame during the reign of Mughal King Jalal-ud-din Akbar. Akoray moved from Teri (a village in the Karak District) to Sarai Akora, the city that Akoray founded and built. Akoray collaborated with the Mughals to protect the trunk route and was generously rewarded for his help. Akor Khels, a clan named after Akoray, still holds a prominent position in the Khattak tribe. The Khattak tribe of Khushhal Khan now lives in areas of Karak, Kohat, Nowshera, Cherat, Peshawar, Mardan and in other parts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Khushhal Khan's life can be divided into two important parts - during his adult life he was mostly engaged in the service of the Mughal King, and during his old age he was concerned with the idea of the union of Pashtuns. He was an intelligent and bold person from childhood. His first involvement in war occurred when he was just 13 years old. Apart from the fact that he was a scholar, thinker, philosopher and boisterous poet he was a prince and leaders of his tribe at the same time. His ancestors were since the 16th century officers of the Mughal Empire.After the death of his father Shahbaz Khan Emperor Shah Jehan appointed him as tribal chief and Mansabdar in 1641 at the age of 28 Mughal king shah Jahan valued his principality. After the death of Shah Jahan, his tensions with Aurangzeb created. Aurangzeb arrested Khushal Khan Khattak. In 1658, Aurangzeb, Shah Jehan's successor, threw him away as a prisoner in gwalior fortress. [3] There he had as a prisoner or later and-Delhi-spent while in custody in the mountain prison. When he returned, he dissociated himself from the Mughal Empire slowly and began with his resistance later. He contacted other Pashtoon tribes and with the support of his people he started a systematic resistance to Mughals. [edit] Khushal's grandfather Malik Akore Khan was a chief of his tribe, but when he died his son Shahbaz Khan Khattak became the head of Khattaks. Shahbaz Khan Khattak was a prominent soldier in the Mughal army. He was a brave man who fought many wars against the Yousaf Zai tribe. This brave man is the father of Khushal Khan Khattak. He also proved his courage in fighting with Yousaf Zai and later with the Mugahl army that he was given the name swordman. Khushal Khan was the eldest son of Shahbaz Khan Khattak. When a battle was fought among Khattaks and Yousaf Zai at this time Khushal Khan was only thirteen (13) years old even when he joined this fight with his father. It means that at birth he a swordsman a necessary skill for a chief/ leader. We find the names of his ancestors and their qualities in one of Khushal's poems: My father Shahbaz Khan was like Hatim in generosity, and was lionhearted and larger than Rustum in bravery. He was very honest, truthful and devoted to sharia. Although he was not yet savvy, he was rich in wisdom. And what would I say about Grandpa Yahya Khan? May God bless him; He was just like Yousaf (the prophet) in beauty. Even when he was as tall as a man on horseback was. This was his physical structure; in bravery, he was also very big. My other forefather was Akore Khan, who was outstanding among Khattaks. [edit] Khushal's early education Khushal Khan received his early education at home. Perhaps in those days the formal education system did not exist. That's why the rich and wealthy people used to hire teachers to teach their children at home. His father was also economically wealthy because he was in a prominent position in the Mughal army. Furthermore, the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan had given much land to his father. Because of which he could easily afford educational expenses for his son. Therefore, he also rented some teachers' services to teach his son at home. We found two names for them through his poetry. One is Maulana Abdul Hakeem and the other is Awais Multani. In a poem, he praised Maulana Abdul Hakeem with the following words. Maulana Abdul Hakeem is a doctor of religious and world knowledge. He even respected Hindu ascetics. Some objected to his action, but he replied, you don't understand. Good treatment with everyone is Sirat-e-Mustaqeem (right way or way of religion. Khushal Khan Khattak was very fond of hunting and sword games. In this regard, it seems that he has a strong bent for hunting than education. As he himself says in the following pair: knowledge of the world would have been mine, I had not indulged in the hobby of hunting. [edit] Rebellion and Moghul Empire His father Malik Shahbaz Khan Khattak was killed in a tribal clash against the Yusufzai tribe in the 4th century BC. After His Father's Malik Shehbaz Khan Mughal Emperor Shah Jehan appointed him tribal chief and Mansabdar in 1641 at the age of 28 the Mughal king Shah Jahan appreciated his principality. After the death of Shah Jahan, his excitement with Aurangzeb Shah created Jehan's successor. Aurangzeb arrested Khushal Khan Khattak in 1658 he threw him away as a prisoner in gwalior fortress. There he had as a prisoner or later-and-Delhi-spent while in custody in the mountain prison. He was later released from captivity in 1668.After Khushal Khan was allowed to return to Pashtun dominated areas (Eastern Afghanistan and western Pakistan), Khushal had been fatally shocked by the unfriendly treatment, he received from mughal authorities and King Aurangzeb whose indifference and coolness to his situation had wounded Khushal's ego. He used to say, I had done nothing wrong with the interests of the king or empire. Mughal authorities continued to offer him temptations to reclaim him for their service, but Khushal resisted all such offers and made it clear to Mughals that I served your cause for the good of my honesty, I subdued and killed my own Pakhtoons to advance the interests of the empire, but my services and my loyalty did not make me a Mughal.
