The Legendary Qais Abdur Rashid

This article talks about Qais Abdur Rashid     and why he is the progenitor of the Pashtun  people. Who is Qais Abdur Rashid and what  is his role in the early history of Pashtuns      and Islam?                                                
Qais Abdur Rashid is one of the more           famous pashtuns in history. He was born in   southern Afghanistan, specifically around the vicinity of the Sulaiman Mountains in Zhob,   and was initially named Pehtan Qais. This     was around 575 AD and he is said to have    died around 661 AD and is supposed to be   buried in Kas-Ghar or Takht-e-Sulaiman.      

This legendary figure Qais Abdur Rashid is known to be the first among the Pashtuns who  traveled the Mecca, met Mohammed the Prophet and embraced the early Islam. He’s later    named as Abdur Rashid and was was the one chosen to lead a delegation to Arabia and      greet the Prophet. 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.


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.
History reports that the eldest son Saraban had two sons and one of them named Sharkhbun (known as Shariyun from the other records). Sharkhbun was then known to be the Abdalis’ ancestor, or Afghans from the western part of the country. The other son        named Kharsbun is known to be the ancestors of the Afghans from the east or the            Muhammadzais who are residing at the northern mountains.

The proliferation of Islam from the time Qais Abdur Rashid embraced Islam’s way of life created a stronghold for Muslims in Afghanistan. In Pashtun or Pakhtun society and culture, individuals are accepted as such if their father is a Pashtoon. This was a decreed as the final say as to whether an individual was a true Pastunor not because there are many                 descendants from Pashtoons who called themselves so but are not really purely Pashtoons. They are also characterized by the language they speak, which is Pashto, their religion        which is Islam and their practice of Pashtunwali. Pashtunwali is a way of living which can be akin to following the teachings of Islam and their culture. Pashtunwali regulates how the Pashtun live their lives and the way they associate with each other and other people of different races and religions. Even to this very day, Pashtunwali is still followed by all Pashtun, especially those who live in the rural area
