Alakozai Tribal Pashtun

Alakozai meaning descendant of Alako in Pashto is the name of a Pashtun tribe in Afghanistan.

Background History. 
The Alakozai are a sub-tribe of the Abdali Pashtuns of Afghanistan.They are one of four sub-tribes belonging to the Zirak branch of the Durrani - Tareen - Bor Tareen - Abdali dynasty.Their eponymous ancestor is supposed to be Alako, son of King Zirak Khan, son of Abdali, son of Tareen, son of Sharif ud-din (Sharakh-bun), son of Ibrahim Sari (Saraband), son of Qais ul-Laik ('Abdu'r Rashid Pathan). he was the arisch chief of Ghor, and converted to Islam by the Islamic prophet Muhammad.It is said that Alako was buried at Nicharah, a valley in the Harboi mountains to the east of Kalt in Baluchistan.

 Alakozai Tribal Divided.
The Alakozai are found primarily in Helmand, Kandahar, Kabul, Laghman, Kunar Sarkani District and Herat provinces in Afghanistan, and form the majority of the population in the Sangin District. Jaldak, which is located 110 km northeast of Kandahar, is the original domicile of the Alakozai tribe. They belong to the Durrani confederation, and can be further divided into more subtribes. The Alakozai people stretch from Farah to Kandahar, and constitute a majority in the Arghandab District of Kandahar. The Arghandab district was given to the Alakozai tribe by King Nadir Shah, who brought down the Safavid empire of Persia with the help of the Alakozai in 1738.Arghandab was referred to by the Greek historians as Arakozia, or the "Land of Arako/Aloko". Alexander the Great faced a fierce resistance from the forefathers of the Alokozai's in Arghandab. Arghandab is also mentioned as Saraswati in Rigveda, and Harwati in Avesta.

Achakzai tribe pashtun

The Achakzai tribe’s primary home region is in the vicinity of Qila Abdullah in Baluchistan, but the tribal lands extend to the vicinity ofChaman on the Afghan border and individual Achakzai clans reside in Afghanistan’s Kandahar Province. Their territory includes the built up areas of Quetta, Qila Abdullah, Mian Wali, and the Pashtun areas of Pakistan’s Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) that includes both North
and South Waziristan, Baluchistan, and the North-West Frontier Province. The tribe is a strong advocate of a Pashtun national entity, Pashtunistan.Tribal leadership is openly pro-Afghanistan and pro-Karzai.1 The tribe’s senior leader, Mehmood Khan Achakzai, spoke in favor of President Karzai’s government in 2003 and has made several trips to Kabul since then. The Achakzai are members of the Durrani Confederation and are Ziraks, just as is Hamid Karzai’s Popalzai tribe Much of the Achakzai tribe supported Communists during the Soviet occupation and the civil war that followed the Soviet withdrawal:
“Astride the road between Kandahar and Chaman (on the Pakistan border) are mainly the Achakzai tribe, along with Nurzai and Alikozai. The Ghilzai dominate the road from Kandahar to Kabul while on the road to Herat around Gereshk we have Popalzai, and also Barakzai, Achakzai, Alizai and Saddozai. The desert is mostly occupied by the Barachi [probably Barech], a tribe mainly into transportation generals including the hero of Jalalabad, Gen Asif Dilawar, was an Achakzai [emphasis added]. Defending Kandahar successfully during the Afghan war was Gen Nurul Haq Alooni [Ulumi], a Barakzai, an artilleryman trained in the US. Another famous general was Achakzai tribal Juma Chak. [emphasis added] Good fighters, the tribesmen could be persuaded where their interests are best served. An Afghan is an ally if his ego and friendship is stroked, a stubborn enemy if he is attacked. Because of the bombing, the Barakzai have pledged their loyalty
to Mullah Umar even ahead of the Nurzai, and the Nurzais are closer to the Taliban. Afghan loyalties can be won over but the widespread bombing and the “Haq episode” has put a dampener on such efforts.”The Achakzai were once a branch of the large Barakzai tribe, but Ahmad Shah Durrani was worried over this large tribe as potential competition for control of Kabul’s throne and split the tribe into two separate components and the Achakzai are a separate tribe today. Their original homeland was Maruf District, Kandahar Province. Achakzai are found over a large area of southern Afghanistan and can be found in Oruzgan Province and as far west as Herat. The Achakzai occupy the territory between the Kadanai and
Lora rivers; western edge of Pishin district; Khojak and Toba Hills; round Kandahar and near Gereshk. Some are found on the Russian frontier where they were moved by Abdur Rahman Khan in 1886 to reinforce the region’s non-Pashtuns against potential Russian aggression. There are two main sub-tribes of Achakzai currrently, one is the Ghabizai under the leadership of Ahmed Khan Achakzai (son of Haji Mohammed Khan Achakzai) and the other is the Ahmadzai which is led by Mehmood Khan Achakzai. Previously, this was one of the most stable Pashtun tribes, but for over nearly two decades they fought a internal tribal war in the area of Gulistan and Addullah Khan in Pakistan which led to the destruction of Gulistan Bazzar and much loss of life. After the death of Abdul Samad Khan Achakzai (the father of the current leader of Amidzai, Mehmood Khan Achakzai), the most favored person to represent Achakzai
was Haji Mohammed Khan Achakzai. His desire for reunification with Afghanistan’s Achakzai caused the Pakistani Government to believe thatHaji Mohammed Khan could reunite the Pashtun territory in Afghanistan, which would remove a quarter of Pakistan. They prevented this by causing enmity within the tribe. Mehmood Khan wanted to succeed his father, Abdul Samad Khan, in the tribe’s leadership and with the help of ISI he killed Haji Mohammed Khan and two of his sons in 1990 and declared himself as the new Achakzai leader. The Ghabizais are still a powerful tribe and control Pakistan’s Gulistan district.A Pakistani journalist wrote about the situation within the Achakzai tribe: “Two sub tribes of the Achakzai tribe viz. Hameedzais [Ahmadzais] and Ghabezais have been at war for over a decade. The formerare the original inhabitants of the area whereas the latter are recent migrants from Afghanistan. Ironically, the former encouraged them to migrate into Pakistan to be able to face off Kakar tribe, with whom they have had traditional rivalry. It all started in 1987 when one person named Kakai Hameedzai was killed when he had gone out for a shoot with a Ghabezai by the name of Mohammad Khan. Mohammad Khan claimed the death to be an accident, but the victim’s family thought otherwise and suspected him of the perfidious murder. Fearing a chain reaction and further bloodshed as a result, the victim’s family shifted to the safe environs of Quetta. Some years later in 1990, the suspected murderer went to Quetta and met the son of the deceased at the latter’s car show room. But he refused to shake the hand of the visitor. Soon after Mohammad Khan Ghabezai was killed, not coincidentally, along with his two sons near Pishin on Quetta-Chaman road. Because Mohammad Khan was the chief of his sub-tribe, his people thought that unless they killed his counterpart, the ends of tribal justice could not be met. Mr. Mohammad Khan Achakzai, Chairman of Pashtunkhwa Milli Awami Party (PKMAP) happens to be the chief of Hameedzai [Ahmadzai] tribe.
“With the murder of Mohammad Khan Ghabezai, basis of an internecine war had been laid and in a tit for tat murder, only a month later, a cousin of Mr.Mohammad Khan Achakzai was killed after he had been kidnapped. This was too close for comfort for the tribal chief f Hameedzai. On 30/31 May 1991; a full-blown war erupted between the two sections of the same tribe and lasted for two to three days. Both sides took positions and fired throughout the day and the night for two days. All kind of weapons short of tanks and armored personnel carriers was used including rocket launchers, grenades and recoilless rifles. Frontier Corps (FC) from all over the province was called to quell the strife. They cordoned the area and laid a siege for 15 to 20 days and succeeded in achieving a cease-fire. 15 to 20 people lost their lives. Very few arrests were made and the situation flared up again after two three months. It was on a much smaller scale and could be controlled by the local FC. Estimates are tentative because it is pointless for the victims to go through the bureaucratic hassle of registering a case and get nothing out of it. Balochistan is divided into A and B areas for the purposes of maintenance of law and order. Police areas are known as A and generally cover towns and the cities comprising about 5% of the total provincial area. Kila Abdullah bazaar is a police area and is divided right down the middle between the two parties. Tehsil offices and other Govt. offices are located on Hammedzai side of the divide thereby restricting the access of the Ghabezais to these offices. Therefore the Ghabezais cannot go these government offices. The area is inaccessible
to one side to the strife that is Ghabezais because the Tehsil office is located in an area controlled by the enemy.” The Achakzai are enemies of the Durrani Panjpai Noorzai tribe and they have fought one another in the past. For example, a large battle fought in southern Afghanistan during the Soviet and communist period occurred at Spin Boldak where communist Achakzais fought mujahedin militia fighters. Afghanistan scholars Barnett Rubin and Robert Kaplan provide good examples of Noorzai animosity toward the Achakzais:
From Barnett Rubin:
“Ismatullah Muslim was a Soviet-trained army major at the time of the 1978 coup. He was … of the Achakzai tribe from the area between Qandahar and the Pakistani border. This tribe was known for its raiding and smuggling activities … and Ismat Muslim was no exception. He had engaged in smuggling at least since the days where he had the distinction of being the first Afghan military officer to be imprisoned there. As early as 1979 he led his tribe into the resistance and was conducting both military and smuggling operations (including the heroin trade) in the area between Qandahar and Quetta…. In 1984, following a dispute with the ISI over his smuggling activities and his refusal to join any of the Islamic parties, Ismat Muslim defected to the regime, which made him a general. His principal role was control of transit points and roads between Pakistan’s Baluchistan and Qandahar…. Ismat Muslim suffered a bloody defeat at Spin Boldak after the Soviet withdrawal.” But the situation at Spin Boldak was far more complex and involved the long-running tension between Noorzai and Achakzai tribes. Robert Kaplan was traveling in the area during the fighting following the Soviet withdrawal and wrote: “Spin Boldak … battle had little to do with the struggle against the Communists … it was the best case study of Pathan tribalism that the war produced.
“On paper, the mujahedin of the fundamentalist parties, led by Khalis’ Hezb-i Islami, fought the forces of General Ismatullah Muslim of the Afghan regime’s militia. In reality, it was a battle between the Achakzais and the Nurzais, two hostile clans within the Abdali [Durrani] tribal family….
“Ismatullah was a warlord in 1984, unhappy with the amount of weaponry the mujahedin was giving him, promptly switched to the side of the Afghan Communists, who made Ismatullah a general and paid him and his Achakzais handsomely. “One of Ismatullah’s first moves was to fortify Spin Boldak, a sheer rock mountain rising from the flat desert. This afforded the Nurzais, who claimed it as their territory and held a pistol to the head of Yunus Khalis. Khalis’ teenage bride was one of the twin daughters of Nadir Khan Nurzai, the head of the clan. Nadir Khan had reportedly blackmailed Khalis the day before the wedding,
saying, in effect, “I’ll give you my daughter only if you give me and my men weapons to fight Ismatullah.”

Babar tribe Pashtun

The Babar or Babori tribe is a Pukhtun tribe from the Sarbanri branch.The Babar diaspora is spread across Pakistan and Afghanistan today. However, the most prominent communities remain the same, the most notable of which is in Pirpiai. Chaudhwan still has a large number of Babars living there. Other communities include, Zhob, Quetta, Multan, Kandahar, Shikarpur and Sindh.In the First World War 78 people of the Babar tribe from Pirpiai went to the war as Indian Army men and four were killed. Hence, Pirpiai is one of the very few villages which has an official plaque commemorating its First World War contribution.Babars have risen to many prominent positions in the government and army of Pakistan, along with many other career fields such as Engineering, Medicine, Acting, etc. Some notable Babars from Pirpiai include, Khurshid Zaman Babar a well know lawyer, Abdullah Zaman Babar, Colonel Mir Haider Khan, Major General Adam Khan, Shah Zaman Babar a prominent lawyer and Justice of Peshawar High Court till 1975, Farouk Adam Khan (a prominent lawyer and later on the Prosecutor General of the National Accountability Bureau) and Major General Naseerullah Khan Babar. Nawabzada Nasrullah Khan also hails from the same tribe.

Kakar History

Kakar  was one of the grandsons of Qais Abdur Rashid. Kakar's father's name was Dani, son of Gharghasht, who was the son of Qais in the Afghan appendix of tribes.According to Afghan and Muslim historians, Ghourghusht was alive in 388 hijri (by the Islamic calendar). Kakar is also called in some parts of Afghanistan Kakar-khel. In Herat, Kakar is locally called Kak. Historically, the tribe has been called Kak-kor (family of Kak). The tomb of Kakar or Kak is in front of Herat central Jamia Masjid's gate.

Qais Abdul Rashid Baba(1st pathan who accepted islam)

Qais Abdul rashid (قيس عبد الرشيد), born Imraul Kase, commonly known as Kase Nikə is the mythical ancestor of the Afghan Race, thought to be the first Pashtun who travelled to Mecca and Medina during the early days of Islam. But there are some who consider this a myth and a character that has been created in the recent years by non-Afghan historians. Afghan historians however can not find any reference in the history that would match with this name. Considering the early years of battles between Afghans and the Arabs which lasted for about two centuries it is hard to believe the relation that has been drawn between Afghans and the Arabs in the story of Qais Abdul Rashid, but here's how it goes.

Qais Abdur Rashid was born around 575 AD in Ghor in modern-day Afghanistan. In another story he is believed to be born in southern Afghanistan, specifically around the vicinity of the Sulaiman Mountains in Zhob, and was initially named Pehtan Qais. Upon hearing about the advent of Islam, he was sent by his tribe to Madina. He met the Islamic prophet Mohammad and embraced Islam, and was given the name Abdur Rashid by Mohammad. He was greatly impressed by Mohammed’s faith and later was invited to join Islam religion. Little did Qais Abdur Rashid knew that his fascination and decision to embrace Islam created twist in the lives of Muslims in the country. His faith and adoption of Islam’s way of life has brought him in the high regarded status to date. He was also sometimes called Malik meaning king. It was later said that he was the one who showed the Pashtuns the path to Islam which is why he is held in high esteem. It is also claimed that the famous warrior companion, Khalid ibn al-Walid introduced Qais Abdur Rashid to Muhammad (No reference is available to this myth). Qais is said to have died around 661 AD and is supposed to be buried in Kas-Ghar or Takht-e-Sulaiman.

Kase or Qais is said to be the common ancestor of all Pashtuns, all tribes being progeny from his sons or daughters. Qais Abdur Rashid was said to have married the daughter of the Sword of Allah, otherwise known as, Khalid bin Walid. Among their offspring were three sons who were said to be the ancestors of all of the Pashtun tribes in the world. These three sons along with a certain Karlan were said to have spread out among the region and created more tribes and communities of Pashtuns.

Qais Abdul Rashid is believed to have three sons or these ancestors of Pashtun or Afghan race are associated with Qais.

• Sarbanr
• Bitan (also known as Batni or Bait)
• Ghurghusht

Though Qais had three sons, there is a fourth ancestor of the Pashtuns

• Karlanr or Karlanri

Realship betwwen Khalid ibn al-Walid and Pashtons

The Pashtoon history is so old and its connect with a brave sahabi Khalid bin walid. If u want to study history of pashtoon you must know Khalid bin walid.

Khalid was born around c. 592 in Mecca to Walid ibn al-Mughira, the chief of the Banu Makhzum, a clan of the Arab tribe of Quraysh. He was Umar's cousin. His father was known in Mecca by the title of Al-Waheed- the One.

Hazrat Khalid Bin Waleed was awarded the title of sword of Allah (Saifullah) by the Prophet Mohammad(Peace Be Upon Him) at the end of Battle/ Ghazwah, of Motah. Motah town was located at the southern end of the Red Sea near Jordon. The battle was fought on 8^th of Hijra in the month of Jamadiul Awwal. It was Ghazwah because the Prophet(PBUH) was alive and was in Madina. It was called battle since the Prophet(PBUH)was not present with the army. The Prophet(Peace Be Upon Him)came to know that a large army of Romans (Shamis) had started moving towards Madina Munawwara. A force of three thousand could be managed to block the way hundred thousand well equipped with armed, therefore the Prophet(PBUH) nominated thee commanders for the combat. The first was Hazrat Jaafar Tayyar, Prophet,s cousin and younger brother of Hazrat Ali (RA). If Jaffer Tayyar was martyred then, Hazrtat Zaid Bin Haris would take the flag and in case of his martyrdom Hazrat Abdullah Bin Rawaha would be the cammander of the force. In the event of his martyrdom, the force would decide for the flag bearer through consensus. The Muslims swiftly advanced and overtook Romans close to the locality of Motah and the fighting started.

Hazrat Jaffer Bin Tayyar took the flag and launched the assault against the enemy and killed a number of them… His right hand was cutoff and he took the flag in the left hand. Little after his left hand was chopped of by the sword of an enemy and he held the flag in his teeth and did not budge an inch but the sword of an enemy cut off his body into two and he was martyred. At this moment the Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) informed the Suhabah (Companions) in Mdina that Jaffer Bin Tayyar was flying to the paradise with his cut off hands making them wings. In the pitched battle Zaid Bin Haris and Abdullah Bin Rawaha too fell martyred while fighting bravely the huge army of the enemy. Then through one opinion the Muslims gave the flag to Hazrat Kalid Bin Waleed who had the experience of war strategy. Hazrat Khalid had embranced Islam right after Ghazwa of Uhud and it was for the first time the commander to lead the Muslim army. Khalid Bin Waleed was the off spring of Banu Makhdoom tribe which had the illustrious tradition of expertise over warfare and valiant deeds. Hazrat Umar, the second Caliph of Islam was also form the same tribe.

Hazrat Khalid started fighting the enemy for some time when the night approached and according to the tradition of war those days, the armies separated from each other and proceeded to their camps to continue the battle the next morning. At night Hazrati Khalid Bin Waleed studied the war plan and came to the conclusion that it would be the foremost objective to fight a defensive war and save the small force to the maximum extent. He directed the 1500 soldiers on the rear to come to the fore front and the fighters on the front to move back in a far and wide area and move towards the battle field while raising full throated slogans of Allah -0-Akber. By evolving the strategy Khalid Bin Waleed started fighting the enemy next morning twisting on a side back back inch by inch for a defensive war. The enemy thought that there were fresh forces on the fore front and innumerable forces of Muslims were backing them and moving towards the battle field. The enemy further was unnerved that the commander was twisting on one side to encircle their army. This was the height of the psychological warefare that such a huge number of force came under pressure by the methodology adopted by Khalid Bin Waleed. The day long fighting continued and nine swords were broken at the hand of Hazrat Khalid. Then he was empty handed and an enemy was just throwing a spear towards Khalid when a Muslim solidier threw his sword swiftly towards him. The tenth sword proved decisive and the Romans started fleeing away. By that time half of the horse of Hazrat Khalid Bin Waleed was drowned in the blood. Hazrat Khalid forbade his force to chase the enemy least they should turn back and assess their real strength. Then they would eliminate the succeeded to save the remaining army of Muslims God given wisdom for warfare. The historians are of the opinion that the battle remained undecided, but it was a miracle that adopting a right strategy Hazrat Khalid managed to force the enemy flee away save his small army from elimination.

When the Muslim army returned to Madina, the prophet Mohammad (PBUH) awarded the title of sword of Allah (Saifullah) to Hazrat Khalid Bin Waleed for fighting the first and most difficult battle of his life with such a small force.

By all standards of the war Hazrat Khalid Bin Waleed stands as the best Commander of history for all times. During his very first battle, he worked a miracle by the grace of Allah to drive away the huge army by leading a very small force of Muslims where very strong Commanders of the caliber of Jaffer Bin Tayyar, Zaid Bin Haris and Abdullah Bin Rawaha had fallen martyred valiantly facing the heavy odds in the battle. In the later history Khalid Bin Waleed trampled the mighty Bazantinian (Roman) Empire. He is the sole commander who did not face a single defeat in his life time. Hazrat Khalid Bin Waleed, at a number of times, launched solo attack on the enemy armies that he should be martyred. But since he was sword of Allah, therefore this sword could not be broken. Many times he was injured but appeared victorious. He was such a legend that the enemy forces dreaded him so much that wherever his presence was known to them in any Muslim army they flew away. A number of traps were laid for Khalid Bin Waleed under the guise of negotiations to take his life, but he had such an acumen and vision that he fore saw that this is a trap and he in advance devised the strategy to frustrate the enemy designs. Even with a small number of force accompanying him during the negotiation, he returned safe and sound, killing a large number of enemy forces.

How Khalid Bin Waleed totally destroyed the heavy might of Roman Empire is a history making event of his life. The event would be narrated in the coming month.

It is misconception that the present day war is more crucial, complex and difficult due to the invention of lethal Arms and mass destruction devices. But the today's General has to command the armed forces while sitting in the observation rooms. The commanders at that stage of history had to lead the forces while lifting heavy weapons. There had been events in the ancient history of war that two kings or commanders decided to fight each other by saving the forces and such and such solo fights had been decision maker.
