Talk:Rawal (title)

hi, I dont completely agree with Rawal clan being a muslim tribe only because I am a Rajput too with the same last name and I am a Hindu, besides Rawals are predominantly found in UP and Rajasthan in India as well who are Hindus. Rawals belong to the clan of Bhatti Rajputs. I think it would be nice to explore the descendants of Jaisal Singh Rawal /the Rawals under him as well in the Rajput Rajwada. It would be nice to explore the other aspect as well. aryaa 09:20, 26 December 2010 (UTC)

yes i too believe the content is not 100 percent correct but the right content i will provide you soon jitender singh rawal.

The description given is not correct at all, since not all rawals are muslims, and even those living in pakistan are not muslims, but are converted forcefully. Shani Rawal — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.154.155.88 (talk) 07:28, 11 July 2011 (UTC)

again the same muslim politics any one who defeat muslim rulers they made them muslims as well, mongols were not muslim all great mongol rulers are either shamist or buddhist similarly bappa rawal defeated bin-qasim and these muslims find a way to tackle this as well.115.242.38.79 (talk) 07:20, 22 July 2011 (UTC)

hi, i see the article has definitely been improved but i guess it would be nice to consider the rawals of UP and Jaisalmer, just so u know the clan was the Bhati clan, Chrandravanshi dynasty. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 183.87.231.45 (talk) 23:02, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

Rawal of Punjab
This article is about the Rawal of Punjab, who are Muslim. I have basically used two sources, Horace Rose and a recent article by Pnina Werbner. Rawal is also a title, and perhaps a separate article can be written, and an intro can be given clarifying this relates only to the Rawal of Punjab.

--WALTHAM2 (talk) 17:33, 1 August 2012 (UTC) This article is about the Rawal of Punjab(Pakistan).But we should keep in mind that these Rawals were migrated from Punjab(India)in 1947.So Wikipedia needs to write different articles for Rawals of different provinces of India e.g,Rawals of Gujrat, Rawals of Rajistan,Rawals of U.P. and so on.It will be a endless exercise.Then a separate article for title Rawal too.I do not understand this classification of Rawals done by you.According to my understanding and little knowledge of Indian history,Rawal is a title used by Rajput clans in India.It does not matter,they belongs to which religion now i.e,Hindu,Muslim or Sikh.Basically all Rawals were Hindu.But with the passage of time and different political,social and cultural factors some of them converted to different religions and adopt different types of occupations.The process of change is a continuous and natural process.So according to my humble opinion Rawals are Rawals ,does not matter which part of the world they live or which religion they belong.Thanks, Tanweer Rana — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tanweer rana (talk • contribs) 03:21, 23 September 2012 (UTC)

Rawals and Guru Gorakhnath
The Rawals have had close association with the tradition of Gorakshanath pronounced in Punjabi as Gorakhnath ...in Punjab we have the Tilla Jogian..both of which also find mention in Heer Ranjha, where Ranjah goes off and becomes a disciple of Guru Gorakhnath .Punjab has been a traditional center of this esoteric Shaivaite Sampradaya and the Rawals have been  pivotal exponent/adherents. Many of the shrines practice and beliefs have resonance with the Malangs at sufi shrines. Will add some stuff if I can source from a an English Book on this illustrious Punjabi community ...now significantly muslim in Pakistan .Intothefire (talk) 07:13, 22 April 2013 (UTC)

Topics of the article
Hello,

the article has numerous topics. However, it -at least currently- is not a disambiguation page. ––Sarcelles (talk) 12:42, 6 December 2018 (UTC)

Raval should be redirect here
@Bearcat, Raval should be redirected here because the more commonly used name is Rawal, not to Raval]. and both are disambiguation pages, so Raval has fewer articles or pages related to this, and [[Rawal has more than ten pages or articles with the same name, so it will be less confusing for the reader to understand or read the same information page on a single page instead of dubious information on Raval, where the Raval disambiguation page has fewer entries as compared to the Rawal disambiguation pages. 2404:3100:1888:488C:1:0:3353:84D8 (talk) 11:02, 29 November 2023 (UTC)


 * @Materialscientist, Hello at the pages Rawal most of the information is same that is already mentioned at Rawal (surname) and even the people section have same entries those are already present at Rawal (surname). 2404:3100:1888:488C:1:0:3353:84D8 (talk) 11:39, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
 * What's this got to do with me? Six months ago I edited this page to remove a bad redlinked (i.e. non-existent) category that this page couldn't be in, which has nothing to do with what you're asking for and has been the entire extent of what I've ever done here. So why are you pinging me to bring this to my attention as if I'd ever had anything whatsoever to do with it? Bearcat (talk) 17:10, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
