AsadUK200 is constantly vandalizing this page and other tribes from Hazara. He seems to be enjoying it we have had enough of him. Azmarai76 (talk) 14:32, 15 June 2019 (UTC)

Swatis are the biggest land owning group of Mansehra and Battagram districts. Every historian has gotten his on view regarding the origin of the Swatis but the Swatis relate their pedigree to Qais Abdur-Rasheed Baba.

In the times of Mohammad Ghuri they came to Swat from Shalman in Afghanistan and defeated the Hindus to establish their rule in that valley. Sir Denzil Ibbitson is of the opinion that the original Swatis were a race of Hindu origin that once ruled the whole country into the hills of Swat and Buneer. Later on the Yousafzais expelled them from those places and drove them east and west into Mansehra and Kafristan.

The copied version of Hazara Gazetteer from Dr. Sher Bahadur Khan Pani says almost the same as far as the defeat of Swatis at hands of Yousafzais is concerned however it suggests that the Swatis are Tajiks or Tajikgeeri Moghuls. It further states that since Swatis are not Afghans and it's just that they have Afghan culture, habits and language owing to their long time affinities with Afghans.

According to a Swati tradition they ruled Swat and Bajaor for four centuries before the Yousafzais invasion that drove them to Mansehra about the end of the 17th century. The Swatis came to Mansehra, under the command of Syed Jalal Baba when the Turks ruled this territory. They ousted the Turks and captured all the hills and plains. Jalal Baba divided the whole country among the lashkar except one fourth of it, which he kept for himself.

As per another tradition of Swatis they are Yousafzais and came to Mansehra from Swat to avenge the humility their nephew Syed Jala Baba had faced at the hands of Turk soldiers. Since they came from Swat, therefore, are called Swatis.

In short Swatis of Mansehra are heterogeneous group of people and include Yousafzais, Old Swatis (The rulers of Swat) and other Afghan tribes. Syed Jalal Baba was the grand son of Pir Baba of Swat who had following in all the tribes of Swat. Moreover, Pir Baba married Bibi Maryam who happened to be a sister of a local Yousafzai Khan, Malik Dolat Khan. Therefore, there are very bright chances that lashkar of Syed Jalal Baba comprised his uncles (Yousafzais) and followers (Old Swatis).

Swatis are divided into three great clans, Ghebri, Mamiali and Mitravi of which the first claim to be Tajik, the Mamiali Yousafzai, and the Mitravi claims to be of Durrani origin. But, it's very difficult to recognize and segregate the tribes of Swatis on basis of blood except for Jahangeeris (Khans of Mansehra town) who are considered to be Old Swatis of Swat by the other Swati tribes.

The Ghebri a section of upper Pakhli occupy Kaghan, Balakot, Ghari Habibullah, Mansehra, Dhodial, Shinkiari, Batagram, Thakot and Konsh while the Mamiali and Mitravi dwell in Bherkund, Agror, Takri and Deshi. While, Allai has mosaic population from all the tribes. These groups have been further divided into many subsections and Khels. Swatis are bilinguals and can speak Hindko in addition to their mother tongue Pushto. They observe the Pathan code of honor Pukhtoonwali very strictly and call it Swatiwali. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.77.211.137 (talk) 16:40, 22 August 2019 (UTC)

The only person vandalizing this page is a Bakery Owner self assumed scholar who works through three aliases. We have traced him and know exactly what he is doing against Swatis. I think he was either sodomized by a Swati in his childhood or his daughter had an affair with someone from this tribe. If it is vandalized next time he will find his reality written on the walls. Azmarai76 (talk) 06:07, 6 December 2019 (UTC)

Swati is a pashtun tribe but some one has edited it as non pashtun which shows their enmity with Swatis and has quoted unauthentic book and self made literal meaninings. Swati is a pashtun tribe and speaks pashto from the beginning and not pahatunized as claimed by some anti Pukhtun and anti pakistani who are just kidding.

This is one person who has self interests from Tajikistan and making new dramas every day against many pukhtun tribes and publishing unauthentic history Ajmal Khan Swati (talk) 01:27, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

no need to mention Pashtunized
According to Pashtun genealogies Swatis are properly mentioned in Bettani Tribal confederation, so there is no need to mention them like pashtunised ! Haider khan10 (talk) 23:20, 4 August 2020 (UTC)

Majority of them speak Pashto only, areas like Agror, eastern slopes of Black Mountain, famous town of batal and Baffa, Shinkiari, upper konsh like chatar plain, the whole of battagram distt up to the extreme hills of Allai and adjacent kohistan, all around valleys and mountains...while people living in Mansehra town, Balakot and Kagan etx speak hindko and pashto also ! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Haider khan10 (talk • contribs) 00:13, 5 August 2020 (UTC)

Where brother according to no Pashtun genealogy Swatis have been mentioned as Bettanis or Afghans. Regards Azmarai76 (talk) 11:17, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

It's not the only one the whole Bhittanis and Mattu tribes are pashtunized same is the case with Aifaals, Mishwanis, Burkis, Haanis and even Ghorghusts. I guess you think it's a derogatory term but it's not and I am sure now you want to leave behind a beautiful history of this tribe which has been recorded since very earlier times. Regards Azmarai76 (talk) 11:57, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

According to your sir denzil ibbeston the Swatis are often wrongly confused with the Dehgan !!!! dear no need to mix them up with any other tribe. Regards Haider khan10 (talk) 20:42, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

Mr Abdali would you pls see Pashtun Tribes only and will produce more if you are not satisfied !! stop personnel gudges with this tribe and leave !!!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Haider khan10 (talk • contribs) 20:52, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

Bettani and matu all are pashtuns not afghans but for you i know you are an afghan!!! so do you have courage to take out all rulliing pashtun tribes Ghalji Lodhi Suri Ghori Swatis out of genealogy of Pashutns even if it is myth ! Regards Mr Azmarai Abdali Haider khan10 (talk) 21:01, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

now stop personnel vendetta against my tribe !! Regards Haider khan10 (talk) 21:04, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

Courage son Lodhis, Suris and others you are mentioning aren't same as Swatis. It's not about courage you seem to have some misunderstanding. Swatis aren't Bettanis nor such relationship has been shown ever in any official source. I suggest you read some books not those that try to rub off the lines but these terms. Earlier also your people would come and claim to be even Yusufzais on this page. Decide yourself if you are Yusufzais Bettanis or something else as Pashtun and Afghan genealogy don't record you as you claim. I don't have vendetta against anyone rather I have been stopping other editors to stop changing even the title of the page from Pashtun to non Pashtun tribe. I again suggest if you want I will again forward this request to the board of scholars and you can present your case of being Bettani. I don't mind rather would try to help you out. Regards Azmarai76 (talk) 10:12, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

If you want to go by Denzil Ibettson he simply thinks they aren't even Dehqan but and Indian or Indic race. Do you want to go by his opinion I don't mind but then agree to his notion of the tribe being Indian. You can't take a portion from one place and a portion from other. Secondly I amnot Abdali but Popalzai. Regards Azmarai76 (talk) 10:16, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

you grandson .. try to be some realistic, its not your home made tribes trying to see them from your scale ... mr abdali why they are not as same as Suris ghoris lodhis marwats ghaljis and others..your ibbeston mentioned all these tribes as pashtuns and if not then there was no need to write on them and numbered them in Pashtuns list !!!! just go and google you will find swatis in bitani ghalji tribal tree and if yes then stop wasting my time you abdali pashtun ... ka ta ma namany .. za ta namanam !!!! Regards Haider khan10 (talk) 10:51, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

what made abdalis pashtuns whereas they still speak persian language .... just stop defaming my tribe, i have saved materiel also which were posted from you in the main article about Swatis, those were so regretful..so just stop and leave you abdali !!!!! Haider khan10 (talk) 10:58, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

Are you okay.... why is an answer you should ask your own elders that why they haven't been recorded for me straight from Dorn B.to The Pathans in 1950s you guys have been mentioned as non Pahtuns non Afghans. Do want to roll that back all over internet??? as no tribe accepts you Pashtun or Afghans. It's not my fault if Swatis aren't Pashtuns so why are you fighting??? Azmarai76 (talk) 10:59, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

i m not afghan but Pashtun only ...Swatis are Pashtuns but not afghans .. do you know who abdalis really were !!!! for now i m just conceterating on your previous paragraphs written on swatis by you on main article Haider khan10 (talk) 11:03, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

Bro I found this is in bad shape with people coming in like you and changing it to Swatis Yusufzais and Bettanis and progeny of Qais Abdur Rasheed. Nothing was supported and that immature edit war led to only the lines Swatis are indigenous ( indian) tribe by the editorial board here after which I picked the issue with some senior editors and started building this page up to the shape you see it today in. Pashtuns like I told you are Karlanris but we fought to at least keep the title of this page a Pashtun tribe due to the fact this tribe speaks Pashto. I guess we should have even omitted Pashtun tribe from the title to avoid edit wars and left it as indigenous indian tribe. Regards Azmarai76 (talk) 11:30, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

For your derogatory remarks on Durranis being speaking Persian is childish there are Gujjars and Sheikh Mohammadis speaking Pashto as their first language does that make them Pashtuns???? Azmarai76 (talk) 11:42, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

If you want I will make it to what Denzil Ibettson has written about you guys. Do you really ??? Azmarai76 (talk) 11:44, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

derogatory remarks for Abdalis no never, i just mentioned them as persian speaking people and thats a fact even it was in Ahmad shah abdil's time when he was in command, the main language of the country was the great persian not the great pashtu, he had a great chance to promote Pashto at that time but he couldn't .. Mr azmarai Regards Haider khan10 (talk) 20:30, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

Lodhis Ghoris Suris Khiljis Swatis are in bitani tribal tree and you can't defined them at your own will, you will have to delete them all from the pashtun genealogy tree all of them or stop using derogatory remarks against any of them. One of more thing that if you omit all these tribes bitani or ghorgasht, you will have nothing in great Pashtun history because all of them were ruling tribes of Pashtuns or may you will have just a recent past history of Ahmed Shah baba of 18th century....Azmarai sab Regards Haider khan10 (talk) 20:38, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

you are wrong about gujjar brothers and others, gujjars have their own first mother language is called Gujri and for sheiks they are living almost all over in Pakistan and speak their areas dominating language like in sind they speak sindhi etc mr abdali sab .. Haider khan10 (talk) 20:44, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

Swatis are Pashtuns but not afghans ... are you rohilla, sulemani, Khurasani or Pathan !!!!! you have half of dozen names mr ... Haider khan10 (talk) 20:47, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

According to Khan Roshan Khan in his book Tazkara meintioned Batani as the second largest Pashtuns tribe and took some names of the sub tribes like Lodhis Suris Swatis and Khiljis of batani confeferation... Abdali sab ka ta ma namany ... qasam khrum che za ba ta hiiis kala namanam ! Regards: Haider khan10 (talk) 21:02, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

Khan Roshan Khan that book written only in 1970 ??? So you have become Bettani since 1970???. Please before changing the content of the paragraph do talk here. I had asked for a source dating back to the time when we these tribes came in lime light made a Confederate as Afghan plus Pashtun tribe??? I am sure you want to become Bettani ok please mention the name of the Bettani subtribe you come from??? Regards Azmarai76 (talk) 03:28, 10 August 2020 (UTC)

Swatis are never regarded as Pashtuns which they really aren't I told you what's been written about them. Ruling tribe of Pashtuns no sorry they have never. Ghoris are Tajiks, Suris are from the House of Suren again not Pashtuns. But your disruptive editing is just making yourself weak and your tribe a bad name. Regards Azmarai76 (talk) 03:33, 10 August 2020 (UTC)

its really dificult to meke you understand because you are non pashtun even cant speak pashto so what left for you is just a pathan....i don't need a non pashtun certificate to be a pashtun, i m a pashtun by huge land owner in Khyber Pashtun Khwa and can read and write my language Pashto....i have lot more references to show you of bitani tree but for now it's much engough for people like you who is non pashtun....Ghoris suris ghaljis lodhis swatis all are pashtuns and all of them are form bitani tribal tree.....if karlani was an adopted son then why they would be considered pashtun because no blood line, according to your folklores !!!! Pashtun is Pashtun by its language customs and tradition mr azmarai abdali sab. Regards Haider khan10 (talk) 09:18, 10 August 2020

why would you cosider ghaljis as pashtuns whereas ther father was a turk prince and his wife was the dughter of Bitan baba, thats what you believe in ... i do believe that Ghaljis are the greatest of all Pashtun tribe even if they were of turko-tajik blood !!!! mr ? Regards Haider khan10 (talk) 09:24, 10 August 2020 (UTC)

Are you really sum up all that you are saying so you have yourself come to turko-tajik thing. Isn't it ??? Azmarai76 (talk) 09:28, 10 August 2020 (UTC)

Again what about Sheikh Mohammadis and Gujjars who now speak Pashto and live side by side with Pashtuns are they also Pashtuns???? Azmarai76 (talk) 09:29, 10 August 2020 (UTC)

Gujjars have their own mother language called Gojri and othere have their mother language and what do you mean to mention name Muhammadi here, don't use it ... azmarai !!!! Regards Haider khan10 (talk) 09:58, 10 August 2020 (UTC) whereas they never claimed themselves as Pashtuns but far better than people like you who claimed to be pashtun but cant speak a single world of pashto but masters in english now smile ... Haider khan10 (talk) 10:20, 10 August 2020 (UTC)

what a foolish claim that you are pashtun, even you don't know a single word of my great language azmarai ........ Regards Haider khan10 (talk) 10:00, 10 August 2020 (UTC)

My friend you seem to have no idea of what you are saying seems like you love Gujjars and even at times some of you liked to be called so. It's not about me here it about Swatis tribe I have told you give me a reference and I will write them Bettanis as you claim. Regards Azmarai76 (talk) 11:06, 10 August 2020 (UTC)

Bro... sheikh Mohammadi is a tribe in Afghanistan Regards Azmarai76 (talk) 11:07, 10 August 2020 (UTC)

My sources aren't books that people keep writing to their benefits as If they are fighting a case from the scratch to categorize this tribe a Pashtuns. These are as following and verifiable online:-

1. Hazara Gazetteer 1883 and 1907 2. Imperial Gazetteer of India (1 and 2 both official documents) 3. Tribes of Hindukush (John Biddulph 1880) 4. Notes on Afghanistan (Maj. Raverty) 5. History of Afghans by Dorn B. 6. The Pathans by Olaf Caroe. 1950...1952 7. Kindgom of Cauble Elphistone. 8. Hayat e Afghan by Hayat Khan. 9. Khursheed e Jahan by Sher Muhammad Gandapur. 10. An inquiry into Ethnography of Afghanistan.

These are all printed by "publishers" and not by "printers" like the other Haider Khan 10 is presenting to build up his case of the tribe being Pashtun or Afghan.

Late in 1960s some of these communities did try to generate content to prove they are Afghans or Pashtuns all printed by "printers" and poorly sourced. Same is the case with this tribe.

The editors Haider Khan 10 couldn't even answer my simple question if this tribe is:-

1. Sarbarni 2. Karlanri 3. Ghorghusts 4. Bettanis ( he did try to make an edit to call Swatis as Bettani tribe without any idea which Bettanis subsection they are from????

He doesn't believe in fables as he always keep saying but trying to descend from these fables himself. (Strange isn't it)???.

Swatis are Pashtunized Tajiks of an old race once known "Dehqans" that's they name they have been joining the British Army and that Military paper is still valid for official purposes to date. Regards Azmarai76 (talk) 02:42, 14 August 2020 (UTC)

Swati are pashtuns and those who are calling them Tajik are agents of Tajikistan and anti pukhtun anf anti Pakistani. There is a person who is behind these dramas of Tajik and also critisizing other pashtun tribes and changing thier identities. Ajmal Khan Swati (talk) 01:32, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

KhanKhel
KhanKhel is a sub-clan of Yousafzai tribe, they are migrated from Swat valley , some khankhel called themselves swati, because they come from swat and now better known as swati, but it belongs to a clane of yousafzai Located in the Hazara region of the Khyber-Pukhtunkhwa, and Kalabat Swabi, Hoti mardan área of Pukhtunkhwa, KhanKhelYousafzai (talk) 13:07, 29 March 2021 (UTC)

Jahangiri
Jahangiri

The Jahangiris are a subsection or clan of the Gabri Section of Swatis, inhabiting Pakistan. They have further ten ramifications: Aman Shahis (امان شاہی), Balaaris (بالاری), Edlahis (ادلاہی), Yusufdinis (یوسف دینی), Hassanis (حسنی), Khazanis(خزانی), Isp Alikhels (ایسپ علیخیل), Bazwenis (بزوینی), Alikhels (علیخیل) and Hasabdinis (حسب دینی). The majority of this tribe live around Mansehra with considerable population in Siran Valley also. Jahngiris, 'as a rule', have forgotten Pushto and speak Hindko as their fisrt language, but some have still retained Pushto. When Babur invaded Bajaur in 1518, the defender was a Jahangirian Sultan named Mir Haider Ali Gabri. After their defeat against Zaheeruddin Babar and Yusufzais, Jahangiris moved to Manshera and Battagram districts. This tribe has been recorded to have collective land holding: (1) nimakai in areas of Mansehra and Bhogarmang Siran Valley.. Their mother tongue was Gabri variant of Persian and Dari when they were in Swat. 103.255.7.53 (talk) 19:55, 14 November 2022 (UTC)

Abdul Ghani khan, a Pashto poet and philosopher (late) share the opinion. He considers the Pashtuns as a mixture of many races that came through their areas from central Asia. Suddum (mardan), Khyber (Peshawar) and elum (swat) are the places, which resemble in names those of bani Israel. Mir afzal khan Jadoon is of the opinion that the features as well as the habits of the Pashtuns resemble those of the Jews. Apart from the clans of Karlanr and mati, Jadoons, Tanolis and Swatis are similar to the Jews in their dwelling and clothes. I hope, you would have heard about this. What would you say if we see Pashtuns from the theory of Henry Walter Bellew (1834-92), who had already connected Pashtuns from Rajputs? What were their crendentials for Pashtuns? What would be the case or to adjust Pashtuns if we had to believe in that theory or majortiy of tribes if the situation was otherwise? Pathan, Rohilla, Sulemani, Khurasani, Afghani are the names which we have been awarded already, but dejectedly to find Pashto speaking Pashtuns! They were here just to made distinction among great Pashtun tribes for their own incentives/targets/goals, they knew they couldn't subdue them ever, so let them divide and rule. A pashto proverb "Mula che sa wai hagha kawa - Che sa kai hagha ma kawa". Another one also, "Wai Cha Akhpala - Biya Gila Sala". I hope you must be a Pashtun, not Pathan. ~Thanks~ azmarai sab Haider khan10 (talk) 10:22, 11 August 2020 (UTC)

how much time gone, when these lineal trees have been explored or written, just in 17th century by Niamatulla Hirvi, in his book "Tareekh e Khan Jahani - Maghzan e Afghani", who himself was far far away from the land of Pashtuns. Infact Pashtuns were every where in Pashtun Khwa from the thousand of years that's why Herodotus mentions them as Pactyans, Righved as Pakat and Persian Osta as Bagad..... Haider khan10 (talk) 22:42, 10 August 2020 (UTC)

Now another point, how could one adopted son can take place of a real son, and their offsprings will trace their ancestor to Qais Abdul Rashid Baba? According to folklores, fables, an infant was found and adopted might be of some another race but defenitely not Pashtun ! Great Karalanis are more Pashtunic as compare to other Pashtun tribes, what makes you so confident about to accept Karlanis in that lineal tree ? Kindly don't see these great Pashtun tribes on behalf of your own likings and dislikings. Here is a Pashto proverb " che ta sok na manay - ta ba hum sok na mani " Haider khan10 (talk) 22:44, 10 August 2020 (UTC)

I am making no personal attacks this is my name. You were calling Qais a folklore yourself then you switched to Bettanis now Bettanis are know to have following branches Tattha, Wraspoon and Dhana. Please reference is needed to which of these three clans are Swatis from??? Regards Azmarai76 (talk) 09:51, 11 August 2020 (UTC)

I told you before it's not what you want to be Sarbanis, Karlanris, Bettanis and Ghorghusts lived together to form what you call Pashtuns. Swatis weren't part of their council as they have been recorded as having enimity with Khashikhel Yusufzai Sarbarnis, that's why they were never regarded as Pushtuns by others as they never served the common cause in Afghanistan. Regards Azmarai76 (talk) 09:57, 11 August 2020 (UTC)

Swati (Pashtun Tribe)
Dear admin, Please correct the initial details of Swati tribe as a Pashtun tribe of Bettani origin. Someone has edited it wrongly due to enmity with this large pashtun tribe and their personal interests from others. You can search authentic history regarding the origin like Pukhtana da Tarikh pa ranna k (by Bahadar Shah Kakakhel), Tahqeeq ul Afghan (by Samiullah Jan), Tazkira Khan Roshan Khan, Swati Pukhtoon (by Fazal Mehmood Khan) etc. Some so called historians are busy in dividing pashtuns by giving them various origins and some are even pretending DNA of other people to target the original people of a specific tribe.
