Abstract
The Pashtoons are famous as a martial and warrior nation in the
world but the code of life of the Pashtoons shows that they are peace
loving people. The ingredients of the Pashtoon code are called
Pashtoonwali in tribal Pashtoon setup and unwritten constitution by the
orientalists. The basic elements of that particular unwritten constitution
are Pashtoonwali played vital role to create an atmosphere of peace and
harmony in Pashtoons society.
But as our recent socio-political history shows that a series of war
and terror had been imposed on these peace loving people in the shape of
nine eleven incident. When we put a glance on the reaction of the
Pashtoons, especially in the perspective of Pashto poetry, so we can
easily observe that this imposed war and terror has been condemned from
both the NATO forces as well as the opponents. This condemnation
indicates that the Pashtoons want peace in their territory. In this write up
an attempt has been made to explore the thoughts of the Pashtoon poets
for the cause of peaceful change.
