MUSLIMS FROM THE LOST TRIBES OF ISRAEL
Quran tells the 2 Divisions of Progeny of
Again Quran tells the division of Muslims and Non Muslims amongst the Bani Israel at the time of Prophet Musa (Alayhay salam)
وَمِنْ قَوْمِ مُوْسٰٓي اُمَّةٌ يَّهْدُوْنَ بِالْحَقِّ وَبِهٖ يَعْدِلُوْنَ
The same is told again in this verse and also it shows that Bani Israel is scattered all around the world
And We cut them up into communities on the earth; some of them righteous, and some of them otherwise; and We proved them wifh good and evil that haply they may return.7-168
We again see the same division between Muslims and Non Muslim Bani Israel at the time of Prophet Eisa (Alayhay salam)
Pashtuns are an ethnic/religious group of people, living primarily in Afghanistan,Pakistan, who speak Pashto or Pakhto language and indigenous religion. The Pashtuns are the world's largest patriarchal tribal group in existence. The total population of the group is estimated at 52 million.
Pathans are the largest ethnic group in Afghanistan.Infact the word Afghan is synonymous to Pashtun as told in the following reference:
The word Afghan ... first appears in history in the Hudud-al-Alam, a work by an Arab geographer who wrote in 982 A.D." Until the advent of the modern Afghan state in the 18th century, the word Afghan has been synonymous with Pashtun.
Its a pity how the West change history inorder to hide the elemination of Pathans in Afghanistan.They even changed the meaning of the word Afghan which always meant the PATHANS or PASHTUNS.This is admitted in Encarta.
Until the term Afghan came to mean any native of Afghanistan, Pashtuns were called Afghans.
(http://encarta.msn.com/encyclopedia_761587080/Pashtuns.html)
The theory that the Pashtun or "ethnic Afghan"s are descended from the ancient Israelitesmore precisely, from the perspective of Jewish history the Lost Ten Tribes of Israel has a longstanding basis as a tradition among the Pashtun themselves, was widely accepted by 19th century British scholars, and has been accepted by some reasonably recent and prominent individuals such as Itzhak Ben-Zvi, second President of Israel. Ref:http://www.pakhtun.com/israeliSource.htm
THE CLAIM BY THE PATHANS AS BEING FROM BANI ISRAEL IS NOT JUST ORAL TRADITION
The claim of Afghans to be the Bani Israel (Children of Israel) is not founded on oral tradition alone. It is supported by ancient monuments, old inscriptions, manuscripts, and historical works, many in the public domain, and many others in private collections.
WRITTEN REFERENCES OLDER THAN 1000
YEARS TELLS THE TRUTH
Apart from our own reference ,the oldest written reference we find is HUDUD-AL-ALAM written in982AD by an Arab Geographer which clearly tells that PATHANS are not from ARAYANs but from BANI ISRAEL(infact he never mentioned the word ARAYAN)
Also the word Afghan ... first appears in history in the Hudud-al-Alam and infact until the advent of the modern Afghan state in the 18th century, the word Afghan has been synonymous with Pashtun.
Now in moderen times some of the Western Historians tell us that the Pathans are from the ARYANS and deny the ancient claim of the Pashtuns that they belong to the Lost tribes of Israel.This doesnt make any sense that someone from outside deny the claim of a whole Nation
ACCORDING TO HADITH, THE DETAILED
PROOF OF PASHTUNS AS BANI ISRAEL
We shall prove this by first taking the following three Ahadith as the base.
These Ahadith tells that only the Bani Ishaq will fight the final war with the Christians and only they will conquer Constantinople at the time of Prophet Eisa ( Jesus ) Alayhay Salam and Imam Mahdi..
The Armegeddon with the Christians will only and only be fought by the Bani Isaaq Muslims and not the Arab Muslims as it is clear from the following three Ahadith
1-Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: The Last Hour would not come until the Romans would land at al-A'maq or in Dabiq. An army consisting of the best (soldiers) of the people of the earth at that time will come from Medina (to counteract them). When they will arrange themselves in ranks, the Romans would say: Do not stand between us and those (Muslims) who took prisoners from amongst us. Let us fight with them; and the Muslims would say: Nay, by Allah, we would never get aside from you and from our brethren that you may fight them. They will then fight and a third (part) of the army would run away, whom Allah will never forgive. A third (part of the army). which would be constituted of excellent martyrs in Allah's eye, would be killed ani the third who would never be put to trial would win and they would be conquerors of Constantinople. And as they would be busy in distributing the spoils of war (amongst themselves) after hanging their swords by the olive trees, the Satan would cry: The Dajjal has taken your place among your family. They would then come out, but it would be of no avail. And when they would come to Syria, he would come out while they would be still preparing themselves for battle drawing up the ranks. Certainly, the time of prayer shall come and then Jesus (peace be upon him) son of Mary would descend and would lead them in prayer. When the enemy of Allah would see him, it would (disappear) just as the salt dissolves itself in water and if he (Jesus) were not to confront them at all, even then it would dissolve completely, but Allah would kill them by his hand and he would show them their blood on his lance (the lance of Jesus Christ).
" Reference: Saheeh Muslim, Kitaab al-Fitan, 8 - 175, 176.
The above hadith tells us the biggest fight with the Christians or the Armageddon.
We see these points in this hadith
1.1/3[SUP]rd[/SUP] of Muslims will be left behind after this Armageddon
2.These 1/3[SUP]rd[/SUP] Muslims will conquer Constantinople.
Now who are these Muslims who have fought this Armegeddon with the Christians and then conquered Constantinople???
The folowing Hadith will clear this question as it clearly tells that these Muslims are from the BANI ISHAQ only.
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Apostle (may peace he upon him) saying: You have heard about a city the one side of which is in the land and the other is in the sea (Constantinople). They said: Allall's Messenger, yes. Therer upon he said: The Last Hour would not come unlesss seventy thousand[1] persons from Bani lshaqwould attack it. When they would land there, they will neither fight with weapons nor would shower arrows but would only say:" There is no god but Allah and Allah is the Greatest," that one side of it would fall. Thaur (one of the narrators) said: I think that he said: The part by the side of the ocean. Then they would say for the second time:" There is no god but Allah and Allah is the Greatest" that the second side would also fall, and they would say:" There is no god but Allah and Allah is the Greatest," that the gates would be opened for them and they would enter therein and, they would be collecting spoils of war and distributing them amongst themselves that a noise would be heard and It would be said: Verily, Dajjal has come. And thus they would leave everything there and would turn to him.* Reference Book 041, Number 6979: Saheh Muslim
So this proves that Only the Bani Ishaq will fight against the Christians in the Armegeddon and they will be left behind to conquer Constantinople.
Now we have two more points by reading the above Ahadith i.e
3.After conquering Constantinople these 1/3[SUP]rd[/SUP] Muslims will hear a cry of coming of Dajjal.
4.Then these 1/3[SUP]rd[/SUP] Muslims will start preparing for prayers (Salat )before the war when Prophet Sayyidna Eisa (Jesus) Alayhay Salam will come.
Now when they will be waiting for the Prayers (Salat) what will be the situation of the Arabs? This is told in the following hadith.
When these two event will be over then a small number of Arabs will join these forces as told in this hadith.
* Narrated by Hadrat Umama a long Hadith from Dear Prophet(salallaho alayhay wa sallam) where Umm Sharik said: Where would be the Arabs then in that day?(Meaning why the Arabs wont come forward and fight for Islam ). He(salallaho alayhay wa sallam) said: They would be small in number? And from that remaning Arabs,most of them will be in Bait-ul-Muqaddas (Sham) and their leader will be a pious man (Mahdi).When their leader will move forward to lead the Morning prayers,then,Hazrat Eisa(Alayhay salam) will descend from the sky.The leader will step back so that Hazrat Eisa(Alayhay salam) will lead the prayers but Hazrat Eisa(Alayhay salam) will put his hand on his back between his shoulders and say Move forward and lead the prayers because the Aqamah was called for you.Then the Imam will lead the prayers to all people. (Reference : Sunan Abi Majah ,307,308)
Thats why hadith tells that Very little Arabs will be left to fight Dajjal.
The following hadith (along with the above two ahadith) clearly tells that Arabs will join only when Bani Ishaq Muslims will be preparing for war and at the time of Salat, Prophet Eisa Alayhay Salam will come.
Two points are cleared here that the Arabs
Please be clear that these two ahadith tells that
The time of Waiting for Salat (prayers) and coming of Prophet Jesus (Eisa) is AFTER the Armageddoon with the Christians and AFTER the conqest of Constantinople .
Also the following Authentic hadith clearly tells that the NON ARABS will fight the GREAT WARS OF ISLAM in the End of Times
Narrated Hazrat Abu Huraira(R.A)
"When great wars will occur,then Allah subhanahu wa ta ala will rise an Army from the Non Arabs who will be greater riders and will have better weapons than the Arabs. Allah subhahu wa ta ala will support Deen (Islam) by them"
(Reference: Sunan Ibn Majah Hadith 971 volume 3)
So this army will consist majority of the non arabs
Do you need more proof? Check the following hadith
The following hadith again clearly tells that very less number of Arabs will be present to fight Dajjal(they wont be present to fight the Armageddon with the Christians
3-Umm Sharik reported: I heard Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: The people would run away from the Dajjal seeking shelter in the mountains. She said: Where would be the Arabs then in that day? He said: They would be small in number.( Reference : Saheeh Muslim Book 041, Number 7035)
PART-2 of Discussion
Now keep in mind the above Ahadith so that now we shall search for the Bani Ishaq among the Muslims who will join Imam Mahdi.
In other words
It also means that if we search for the Muslims who will join Imam Mahdi then we can find out who are the Bani Ishaq among the Muslims.
Part-1 Finding the Geographical location of Mahdis Army
Sign-1 They will come from the East
Note : There are many more Ahadith also about the army of the East helping Mahdi, but I have written only one so that the discussion doesnt become too lengthy.
Sign-2 They will be from Khorasan
Dear Prophet Muhammad(salallaho alayhay wa alay he wa sallam) said thatWhen you hear the news of Black Flags coming from the East, then, you must join them even if you have to crawl over ice(to reach them).*1 Ref: Saheeh Trimdi J2,Page 56.
Now so far we have found out that the Madhis Army will be from
Quran tells the 2 Divisions of Progeny of
Prophet Ishaq and Prophet Yaqoob
Quran tells us about the two divsions among the Progeny of Prophet Isaaq (alayhay salam)
وَبٰرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ وَعَلٰٓي اِسْحٰقَ ۭ وَمِنْ ذُرِّيَّـتِهِمَا مُحْسِنٌ وَّظَالِمٌ لِّنَفْسِهٖ مُبِيْنٌ ١١٣ۧ
اور ہم نے ان پر اور اسحاق پر برکتیں نازل کی تھیں اور ان دونوں کی اولاد میں سے نیکو کار بھی ہیں اور اپنے آپ پر صریح ظلم کرنے والے (یعنی گنہگار) بھی ہیں
We blessed him and Isaac: but of their progeny are (some) that do right, and (some) that obviously do wrong, to their own souls.-37-113اور ہم نے ان پر اور اسحاق پر برکتیں نازل کی تھیں اور ان دونوں کی اولاد میں سے نیکو کار بھی ہیں اور اپنے آپ پر صریح ظلم کرنے والے (یعنی گنہگار) بھی ہیں
Again Quran tells the division of Muslims and Non Muslims amongst the Bani Israel at the time of Prophet Musa (Alayhay salam)
وَمِنْ قَوْمِ مُوْسٰٓي اُمَّةٌ يَّهْدُوْنَ بِالْحَقِّ وَبِهٖ يَعْدِلُوْنَ
1.اور موسٰی (علیہ السلام) کی قوم میں سے ایک جماعت (ایسے لوگوں کی بھی) ہے جو حق کی راہ بتاتے ہیں اور اسی کے مطابق عدل (پر مبنی فیصلے) کرتے ہیں
Of the people of Moses there is a section who guide and do justice in the light of truth-7-159The same is told again in this verse and also it shows that Bani Israel is scattered all around the world
وَقَطَّعْنٰهُمْ فِي الْاَرْضِ اُمَمًا ۚمِنْهُمُ الصّٰلِحُوْنَ وَمِنْهُمْ دُوْنَ ذٰلِكَ ۡ وَبَلَوْنٰهُمْ بِالْحَسَنٰتِ وَالسَّيِّاٰتِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَرْجِعُوْنَ ١٦٨
اور ہم نے ان کو جماعت جماعت کر کے ملک میں منتشر کر دیا۔ بعض ان میں سے نیکو کار ہیں اور بعض اور طرح کے (یعنی بدکار) اور ہم آسائشوں اور تکلیفوں (دونوں) سے ان کی آزمائش کرتے رہے تاکہ (ہماری طرف) رجوع کریں۔And We cut them up into communities on the earth; some of them righteous, and some of them otherwise; and We proved them wifh good and evil that haply they may return.7-168
We again see the same division between Muslims and Non Muslim Bani Israel at the time of Prophet Eisa (Alayhay salam)
يٰٓاَيُّهَا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا كُوْنُوْٓا اَنْصَارَ اللّٰهِ كَمَا قَالَ عِيْسَى ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ لِلْحَوَارِيّٖنَ مَنْ اَنْصَارِيْٓ اِلَى اللّٰهِ ۭ
قَالَ الْحَــوَارِيُّوْنَ نَحْنُ اَنْصَارُ اللّٰهِ فَاٰمَنَتْ طَّاۗىِٕفَةٌ مِّنْۢ بَنِيْٓ اِسْرَاۗءِيْلَ وَكَفَرَتْ طَّاۗىِٕفَةٌ ۚ فَاَيَّدْنَا
الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا عَلٰي عَدُوِّهِمْ فَاَصْبَحُوْا ظٰهِرِيْنَ 14ۧ
اے ایمان والو! تم اللہ کے مددگار بن جاؤ جیسا کہ عیسٰی ابن مریم (علیہما السلام) نے (اپنے)
حواریوں سے کہا تھا: اللہ کی (راہ کی) طرف میرے مددگار کون ہیں؟ حواریوں نے کہا: ہم اللہ کے مددگار ہیں۔ پس بنی اسرائیل کا ایک گروہ ایمان لے آیا اور دوسرا گروہ کافر ہوگیا، سو ہم نے ان لوگوں کی جو ایمان لے آئے تھے ان کے دشمنوں پر مدد فرمائی پس وہ غالب ہوگئے
O ye who believe! Be ye helpers of Allah: As said Jesus the son of Mary to the Disciples, "Who will be my helpers to (the work of) Allah?" Said the disciples, "We are Allah's helpers!" then a portion of the Children of Israel believed, and a portion disbelieved: But We gave power to those who believed, against their enemies, and they became the ones that prevailed.-61-14قَالَ الْحَــوَارِيُّوْنَ نَحْنُ اَنْصَارُ اللّٰهِ فَاٰمَنَتْ طَّاۗىِٕفَةٌ مِّنْۢ بَنِيْٓ اِسْرَاۗءِيْلَ وَكَفَرَتْ طَّاۗىِٕفَةٌ ۚ فَاَيَّدْنَا
الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا عَلٰي عَدُوِّهِمْ فَاَصْبَحُوْا ظٰهِرِيْنَ 14ۧ
اے ایمان والو! تم اللہ کے مددگار بن جاؤ جیسا کہ عیسٰی ابن مریم (علیہما السلام) نے (اپنے)
حواریوں سے کہا تھا: اللہ کی (راہ کی) طرف میرے مددگار کون ہیں؟ حواریوں نے کہا: ہم اللہ کے مددگار ہیں۔ پس بنی اسرائیل کا ایک گروہ ایمان لے آیا اور دوسرا گروہ کافر ہوگیا، سو ہم نے ان لوگوں کی جو ایمان لے آئے تھے ان کے دشمنوں پر مدد فرمائی پس وہ غالب ہوگئے
This clearly shows that family of Prophet Isaaq (alayhay salam) or the Family of His Son Prophet Israel is divided in two groups both in his life and afterwards (since Quran is for all times till the end of time and not only for the time of Prophet Isaaq(alayhay salam)).
1-Mulim Bani Ishaq or Bani Israel (Bani Israel also means Bani Ishaq since Isaaq is father of Israel)
2-Non Muslim Bani Ishaq (i.e the Jews which make only 2 out of 12 tribes of Bani Isreal / Isaaq)
Amongst Muslims only the Pathan or Pashtun or Pakhtun or Ethnic Afghan are claimed to be amongst the 10 lost tribes of Israel.
Pathans are the largest ethnic group in Afghanistan.Infact the word Afghan is synonymous to Pashtun as told in the following reference:
The word Afghan ... first appears in history in the Hudud-al-Alam, a work by an Arab geographer who wrote in 982 A.D." Until the advent of the modern Afghan state in the 18th century, the word Afghan has been synonymous with Pashtun.
Its a pity how the West change history inorder to hide the elemination of Pathans in Afghanistan.They even changed the meaning of the word Afghan which always meant the PATHANS or PASHTUNS.This is admitted in Encarta.
Until the term Afghan came to mean any native of Afghanistan, Pashtuns were called Afghans.
(http://encarta.msn.com/encyclopedia_761587080/Pashtuns.html)

THE CLAIM BY THE PATHANS AS BEING FROM BANI ISRAEL IS NOT JUST ORAL TRADITION

- Will not participate in the conquest of Constantinople.
- they will only come (in a very small number) when Bani Ishaq Muslims will be preparing for Prayers (Salat) (before war against Dajjal) and when Prophet Jesus arrives.
Please be clear that these two ahadith tells that
The time of Waiting for Salat (prayers) and coming of Prophet Jesus (Eisa) is AFTER the Armageddoon with the Christians and AFTER the conqest of Constantinople .
Also the following Authentic hadith clearly tells that the NON ARABS will fight the GREAT WARS OF ISLAM in the End of Times

Part-1 Finding the Geographical location of Mahdis Army
Sign-1 They will come from the East

- Narrated by Thoban(radi Allah Anho) that Dear Prophet Muhammad (Salallaho alayhay wa alay he wasallam) (May blessing and peace from Allah be upon him) said that:" Black Flags will appear from the direction of the East and they will wage such terrible war with you as no nation has ever fought with you before. When you see them then give allegiance even if yuo have to crawl over ice to give allegiance to them because the Caliph of Allah , Mahdi is among them (Al-Asha-ah page 240)
Note : There are many more Ahadith also about the army of the East helping Mahdi, but I have written only one so that the discussion doesnt become too lengthy.
Sign-2 They will be from Khorasan
