How fear of Sardar Hari Singh Nalwa forced Pashtuns to start wearing salwar

[Mirza Jatt]

so wait a second what they are wearing under the kurta is not a shalwar? then what is it? and i am sorry but the syrians wear it too! and even jeans is a form of 2 legged dress so all are different in what way???

you mean the pajama. If you are talking about the top, ten what the men are wearing is called kurta and what women are wearing is salwar (not shalwar)..thats how its known in India. may be in your pakistan you call the pajamas, the salwar.

and DHOTI i am sorry is the UNDERWEAR worn by SAUDIS & ALL OF GCC.

so i am not insulting but stating facts here

Nopes. you are confusing between dhoti and saudis clothes....I dont know what saudis's dress is known but hats more like a Lungi for us than a dhoti...a dhoti is different..although its a simple plain cloth just liek saudis' it is not worn that way..its a worn by wrapping in a particular manner that gives it a particular shape..which i much different than what saudis wear. lemme try to give you an example...

this is a dhoti

pajamas in what way do they look to you like pajamas?? and you are telling me SIKH men go out in pajams and their tradiational dress is a pajama?

and salwar & rooj rooj and fir are not words!! the real words are ROZ,PHIR & SHALWAR!

& dhoti is dhoti style of wearing it may vary from one nation to another!

& as for shalwars the Africans in nigera,mali,turkish & syrians wear it! so i don't know what you are on about

 

[third eye]

i would rather act like an idiot on any given day than doing nothing against any bullshit against a Pathan, Muslim or anyone for that matter, the way i see it you report me the mods get to take a look at the article and see its infuriating the users (or some of them) and maybe close the thread or something, we aint what the sms and jokes say about us, this out burst is a calculated stupidity....

The ire is appreciated & understood.

However, why express it in this juvenile manner ?

It is better to be firmly assertive than rude / crass.

My views entirely.

Lol..boy ...you need to make sure what you are asking..you asked me whatthe sikhs men are wearing..I told you they are pajamas....now wait....first you need to know pajam is a hindi word and ot a english word..the pajam for englishmen is not what it is for Indians. dont be surprised if you find us calling them pajamas..lol..that is what is called a pajama.

now to clear your doubts..if you are talking about the the ethnic dress of punjabis and by mistake calling it dhoti..then lemme clear it to you..its known as chadara. worn uder the kurta.

For decades after his death, Yusufzai women would say "Raghe Hari Singh" ("Hari Singh is coming") to frighten their children into obedience.

chadara or whateve you call it you might call it a pajama but it is IDENTICAL to a shalwar. there is no difference. just like you were on about dhoti being IDENTICAL to the ARABIC UNDERWEAR but yet not being the same.

so i am not the confused one you are mate.

& he wrote in his book & you believed him? wow that is pretty naive of you isn't it!when clearly a foreginer may not know anything about culture or demographics of the region. besides i never heard of this hari singh dude. and i am sure 99.9% of pakistanis haven't either.

i happen to be a yousafzai and my great grandmother atleat 97 years old and her sister along the same age late 90s even she never mentioned any thing like this......

 

[ice_man]

the problem with sikhs is they always over exagarete things liek their stories about 40 men vs 10 million or 10 men vs 1 million in no story of theirs do there bnumbers touch 50 and they fight against millions and in the end all die and one runs away & write stories.

the bottom line is INDIAN PUNJABIS are PHAIKOO(as in liars)

one thing i learnt on pdf is being firm mannered as assertive in a civilized way aint going to get u no where, not that I am saying that all Pakistanis are angels or something but you are probably the second Indian dude who makes a bit of sense, all the rest are idiots trolling their brains out.....

Your great grandmother was born in 2015,80 years after Hari Singh spanked the durranis.

@RazPak: Shut it if you can't take it. Why do you take everything upon yourself to get hurt?

The man who purportedly wrote the letter is also a Pakistani, a Pathan at that. Please also remember Pathans are not owned by Pakistan. They are in India as well. Even if the story itself is untrue(nobody can verify it), we should atleast be able to know whether the existence of such a legend is true.

A pukhtoon is he or she whose mother and father are pukhtoons, and they speak pukhto, and relates to Afghanistan or Pakistan anything other then that is just a substitute ,nothing like a real thing.

Indians claiming to be that are not the real thing, they may have been at some point but i am confident enough to say dna results will confirm that they are not now.

Who is better who is not time will tell, we have a few rounds under our belt, history dictates that war is a fact of life so there will be an another opportunity, time will tell.

Your great grandmother was not born in 2015,80 years after Hari Singh spanked the durranis.

& sadly enough this "spanking" is forgotten by istory totally! which remembers the invasion of alexander,moghuls & ghanazvi & ghauri.

BUT HARI SINGH is totally forgotten in 80 years of his so called greatnes
