Kashmiri women are strictly forbidden from nose piercing

I wanted to ask Kashmiri members here...what are your reasons for such deep attachment to an increasingly old heritage? Most Kashmiris in Punjab who I know in real life seem so Punjabi that you wouldn't realise they are Kashmiri till they told you their surname.

For us in punjab, it serves merely as our "tribe" or "caste" identification, we are the only people in punjab whose "caste" is acutally an expression based on a geographical region, is'nt it funny though.

So in simply put words, we are seen as foreign?

I remember this man from Multan (he is Rajput from Rajasthan originally) saying that Butts were criminals.

Felt disgusted hearing his racist opinion.

Maybe he meant Bhatt :ashamed:
Kashmiris are very trustworthy. Even today it is possible for us to keep open the door and nobody touches anything. Murder, theft is low.

If you speak of heritage, then please be respectful to the heritage of Kashmir, which is its Sufi Heritage. Hazrat Bal Shrine and the Shrines of NUMEROUS Sufis all over tiny Kashmir from Neelum down to Bhadarwah, are testimony to this fact

And in Kashmir we have a new movement in full swing to reject the Arabian heresy. New age wahabism is destruction of all culture in Pakistan.

No one can deny the fact that the Kashmiri People are the Prime Sufis in Pakistan, even MORE than what we know of Punjabis and Sindhis. Tradition in Kashmir, the language, the poetry, the anecdotal stories, the themes, the Islamic history is ALL Sufi in origin or influenced by Sufism.

That is why Allamah Iqbal was a Sufi, and took a Sufi, Sayyid Jamat Ali Shah, as a teacher.
