What is the Ethnic Origin of the Pashtun?

From their ancient traditions we can see the connection between the Pathan and the Jews. They make up half of the Afghan population and live in the Pashtunistan region on Afghanistan's eastern border. More than 90 percent of the residents are Sunni Muslims. After modernization, the state penetrated even less into the near-border landscape. In these places the Pathans continue in the tribal framework as their fathers did.

The law works according to the Pashtunwali, the "Pashtun Laws" are partly similar to the Torah laws. Pathans are known for their physical strength. Many carry guns from an early age, are hardworking, smart and loyal, and are known worldwide as well-loved members. 

Pashtun do not resemble the faces or behavior of other ethnic groups living in the vicinity: Indians, Iranians, Mongols, Turks, or Persians. Most scholars agree that the Pathans came from Israel. This view is confirmed by the many evidences of Afghan Jews who returned to Israel and heard from them about the Pathan traditions.

Relations with Israel 

Although the Pathans have been liberated and forced from Islam, they still preserve the Jewish traditions inherited from the past. This book contains a lot of evidence from Afghan Jews who lived in and had contact with the Patan region. The evidence does not cover all Pathans or all tribes and places. However, it does show that there are Jewish traditions among the Pathans. Both quantitative and qualitative research is needed on this subject.

Let's just remember the traditions on the list: side lock, haircut in eight days, Talith (prayer shawl) and four tassels (Tsitsit), Jewish wedding (Hupah and ring), female customs (diving in a river or spring), mutual marriage (Yibum), respect for fathers , fasting (milk and camel food), not eating meat and dairy, clean and unclean chicken tradition, Shabbat (12 prepare halal bread, no work), candle burning to commemorate the Sabbath, Yom Kippur (Yom) Kippur) words prayer (some Returns to Jerusalem), the blood of the Beginning and the two Meszozotes (when there is a plague or scourge), scapegoats, with the help of the Psalms (put the book on the head of the sick) ), Hebrew amulets (Kamia), Hebrew names (also used for communities and villages), holy books (especially respecting the 'Sheriff's law') or the law of Moses, which cures diseases) and when the name of Moses is mentioned. According to the law of Patan, they have the same rules as the Jews. On an island in the Pehshauor region, the Magen David symbol can be seen in almost every Patanian house. The rich make it from expensive metal, the poor from simple wood.

It is necessary to conclude this article with one of these proofs. Mr. Chiya Zorov from Tel Aviv points out that when the Bolsheviks came to power in Russia, they divided large areas of central and southern Russia into smaller regions like Tanjikistan, Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan and other things. In Tanjikistan, in northern Afghanistan, there is a village called Dushme. After Stalin came to power, the village was given his name Stalinabad. It began to grow, and then many Jews began to come to Tangjikistan.

They saw Tanyakis lighting a candle on Friday night. When Jews came to visit them, they shared that they ate a dish called Pacha, which is unique to the Jews of Bucharest and is eaten every Friday evening. When asked what it was, the Tajiks said it was their ancient food and it was called Pacha. They also say they have a tradition of being Jewish.

Rabbi Saadia Gaon had a long talk with Hacham Hivay Habalchi, the speaker's view that the desire of the Jews to assimilate into Islam at that time (10th century) was what they were discussing.

The scholar Ibn Sina, who was born in Bukhara, also lived in this period. Professor Tajiki said he also joined a group of Jews known as Tchale who were forced to convert and join Islam. As explained, his name means Sinai, the son of sin (in many languages ​​to this day, in Hebrew these words are pronounced the same way - Sinai, Sinai), perhaps that is why he called himself Ben Sina, in others the words, Son. Torah from Sinai.

The Maharaja of Mardan, a graduate scholar from the University of London, often visited the Mishhad converts living in Peshalf. He also visited a Jew named Carmeli, who told Hiya Zorov that the Maharaja always said that one day they would learn the difference between all people and then realize that all people are one. Once upon a time, Jews lived in Afghanistan.
