Insights into the book<\/h2>\n

The book \u201cMy life and struggle; autobiography of Badshah Khan\u201d<\/strong> not only narrates the life of the social reformer Abdul Ghaffar Khan, but it is also a testament to the birth of a non-violent freedom fighter in the subcontinent. According to Dr. Shandana, the contents of Bacha Khan\u2019s biography dives into the cultural aspects of Pakhtuns, the political and social context in which Bacha Khan worked as a social reformer. His book discusses about Pashtoon culture by highlighting the process of Badl, Pashtoon Wali Courts, place of women in society, and the attitude towards education.\u00a0<\/b>Moreover, he pens his struggle as a freedom fighter and the struggles he faced in achieving the vision he had for his people.<\/p>\n

\"Dr.<\/a><\/h2>\n

\u201cMy life and struggle, The autobiography of Abdul Ghaffar Khan is the story of a brave man who fought non violently to free India from the yoke of British colonialism. Furthermore,\u00a0he \u00a0stood for Hindu-Muslim unity<\/b>, women empowerment<\/b> and the reformation of Pakhtuns<\/b> for a better and just society.\u201d \u2014 Yash Sharma for Goodreads<\/i><\/p>\n

Life of Bacha Khan<\/h2>\n

Abdul Ghaffar Khan was born February 6, 1890<\/strong> in Utmanzayi, Punjab<\/strong>. Due to his services as a social activist and reformer, the public remembers him by many names. Badshah Kha<\/strong>n, Bacha Khan<\/strong> and Fakhr-e-Afghan<\/strong> are his most famous pseudonyms. Since his youth, Bacha Khan was an active participant in the works of community service. For instance, he established a school in Utmanzayi just at the age of 20. <\/b>He also founded the Khudayi Khidmatgars (servants of God)\u00a0<\/b>during the 1920s<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Even though he set out to inculcate the lost values of unity<\/strong>, non-violence<\/strong> and wisdom<\/strong> in the people of subcontinent, he was met with a lot of resistance<\/strong>. Despite the hurdles placed in his way in the form of death threats<\/strong>, imprisonment<\/strong> and exile<\/strong>, he did not waver. Dr. Shandana shares an account of Bacha Khan\u2019s life where his father received death threats. In response to those threats Bacha Khan responded;<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy do you pray 5 times a day, father? <\/em><\/p>\n

His father said, \u201cbecause it is compulsory\u201d. <\/em><\/p>\n

To this Bacha Khan replied, \u201cfor me educating and reforming my people is compulsory\u201d.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Bacha Khan left a legacy of peace and welfare for his people. He is a hero celebrated among Pashtoons, who showed them a path of reason and harmony in times of conflict, bloodshed and war.<\/p>\n

Dr Shandana Khan\u2019s Message<\/h2>\n

While staying on the topic of modern education and social reformation, Dr. Shandana highlights how Bacha Khan held onto his roots and culture and inspired the same in the generations to come.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe believed in discarding the parts of one\u2019s culture that furthered the narrative of violence, injustice and ignorance and promoting the ones that were beneficial.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

For instance, Dr. Shandana says \u201che fought hard against the societal ills such as the jirga systems, violence, baseless land and blood feuds.\u201d However, when it came to upholding his cultural values; he advised young people to get modern education but at the same time he also urged them to learn their mother language and promote it.<\/p>\n
