The ruling Kulabis are reliant on Russian funding, and the resurrection of an Islamic mosque suggests the Islamists are yet again establishing a stronghold. A bus rumbles through the shimmering heat to a Russian checkpoint. Behind it, 1300 miles of barbed wire mark Tajikistan's border with Afghanistan. The bus contains anxious Gharmis returning home from Afghan refugee camps. Following the collapse of the Soviet Union, they were driven out by a vicious civil war between their own Islamic forces and the Soviet-backed Kulabis. They now return, fearing reprisals from a new Kulabi government, but hoping after four years to resume normal life.

the revival of Islam among Tadjiks is much faster because Islam was very strong among Tadjiks in pre-Soviet era. Afterall, it was the Tadjiks that introduced Islam to the central Asian Turkics (Notable one: Ismoil Somoni is well known for spreading Islam among Central Asians).

[@mansoorneat7158]

Now look

[@datruthsetufree298]

@mansoorneat7158 it also were the Tajiks that were forced to convert to Islam in the 8th century they used to be zoroastrianist.

Sorry to see my Tajik brothers and sisters have suffered this bad during the civil war. May god bless you all and have a better situation in future. A Persian dude from Iran.

SO much for promoting democracy or global village, or human rights for that matter. "Radical Islam," indeed, as if that is different from radical atheism or radical religion of anu kind. The bottom line is that peoples' freedom to choose their religion and government is still being repressed by European powers and USA. NO net change over the last 200 years, or really the last 1000. Before that, is was Arab oppressors, and before that, it was Mongol oppressors. Evil never rests.

[@samirasabzalieva7544]

Very pitty that Tajik killed each other with the help and support of Russia and Uzbekistan and destroyed their country. Over 150 thousand people killed and about million intelent people had left the country. The economy had been destroyed and become the country to the one of most poorest. Still now there is no jobs in the country and about 3 million migrants are had to find some survival money in Russia, Europe and other countries

[@americancommunist7633]

Such a sad situation

[@zoeyvoey]

@infiltratorr 1Yes there are powers working towards breaking up Pakistan but they were hit by a recent set back. Pakistan it self is geographically very stable many great civilizations have been part of this land. Afghanistan that are in Pakistan are mostly refugees wanting to go back to Afghanistan after the war is over. I went with a news team to that area to interview people and I met only 1 pro Pak division. The rest just wanted peace, from Taliban and loved the army for getting rid of them

[@Ghurshah]

Tajikistan was never part of Afg. Khurasan is the real name of what is today called Afghanistan and areas north of the river Amu are historically part of Khurasan - like Bukhara Samarqand Dushanbe Ferghana and so on. Amir Habibullah Khan & Amir Habibulah Kalakani both wanted to launch massive Jihad to free Persianate Central Asia - but both were prevented - one was assassinated & the other was fought by Russian armies in the north and tribal running dogs of the British from the south.

what was wrong or right the person should know i mean aisha(mabpwh) when she grew enough (as for u 18 yrs). dont u know she was happy? she described prophet Muhammad (pbuh) as the most loving and caring person in the world. i strongly disagree with the statement "some parents will give away their daughter for money or land" do u know how wealthy was her father? he was one of the riches of his time! so u must know about some1 before u put them in examples. tc

@zoeyvoey okay to be real, not all pashtuns have the same idea there are more pakistan pashtuns to that want to be pakistanis than pakistani pashtuns that want to be with afghanistan, so far at this streek, the awnsers to such question revolves around the taliban.... And why not Afghan refugees who want to join and become pakistanis and not afghans anymore like their fellow pakistani pashtuns had done hundreds of years ago....

Why This reborn Not For God

[@RevolutionarySM]

They keep calling the pro-government group in the Tajikistan civil war pro-communist. But the Tajikistan Socialist Soviet Republic was renamed Republic of Tajikistan and became capitalist. Marxism Leninism ( Stalinism ) was death by 1992, as former Stalinist bureaucrats turned nationalist like Emomalii Rahmon. This civil war was a sectarian battle between rival ethnic groups. One was supported by Moscow and the other by the Taliban and Al-Qeida. This had nothing to do with communism!
