This paper deals with the emergence of Bayazid Ansari
and his Roushaniya Movement in the middle of the 16th century
in the north-western Pakhtun borderland. The purpose of the
paper is to make comprehensive analyses of whether the
movement was a militant cult or a struggle for the unification of
all the Pakhtun tribes? The movement initially adopted an antiMughal stance but side by side it brought stratifications and
divisions in the society. While taking a relatively progressive and
nationalist stance, a number of historians often overlooked some
of its conservative and militant aspects. Particularly the religious
ideas of Bayazid Ansari are to be analyzed for ascertaining that
whether the movement was nationalist in nature and contents or
otherwise? The political and Sufi orientation of Bayazid was
different from the established orders prevailing at that time
among the Pakhtuns. An attempt would be made in the paper to
ascertain as how much support he extracted from different tribes
in the Pakhtun region.
