Pashtunwali means all the Customs, tradition
customary laws and usages as well as social relations
prevailing in Pakhtun Society. It is the unwritten law of the
Pakhtuns, which has been passing from father to son for
centuries and it is as old as the history of Pakhtun.
In these social norms, some are similar to Islamic
thoughts and rulings while some vary the basic concept of
Islamic culture. As it has been a universal truth that the
Pukhtoons are followers of Islam in every corner of the
world. Therefore it is necessary to evaluate the acquired
systems with respect to Islamic culture.
The article under reference is an attempt in the
same way in which both the culture’s have been compared
and analyzed scholarly.
