  • Afghan = Pakhtun

    Samanid/Tajik = Persian

    Was Ibn Sina a Pakhtun? The answer is no.

    Ibn Sina was a born inside the Samanid empire , the Samanids were a Persian dynasty who ruled over modern-day Tajikistan,Afghanistan and Iran. The Hottaki and Durrani dynasties are the creators of modern-day Afghanistan , before their rule there was no political entity known as "Afghansitan" .

  • @SherShah285

    You idiot, do you have any idea what "Tajik" means? You think it is a race? It means "Persian commoner" that's all. You don't even know who you are, nor where you came from. You don't know your extended family (as we call clans or tribes) and you dont know the names of your grand fathers. This is because you're ancestors were all common people who did not hold seats of power nor contribute to Afghanistan.

    This is the difference between you and us Pashtuns

  • @ANGKABUL you have no class

  • Avicenna was not a Pashtun (i.e. Afghan), notice how all these Pashtuns historical figures in this series are all barbarians of war and those who actually contributed to humanity like Avicenna all Tajiks who are falsely labelled "Afghan"

  • Stop arguing! Nationalism is not part of Islam, we are all MUSLIM - one Ummah encapsulating 1.5 Billion people around the world. He makes me proud to be MUSLIM!

  • Abu Ali Sina (Avicenna) was a Farsi-zaban. A Tajik, a persian.

    The Greeks called him, the Father of Medical Science.

    He was born in ancient Balkh, modern Mazare Sharif City in North Afghanistan.

    Afghan = means Pashtoon.

    the name IRAN is mentioned by Ferdowsi as the land of ALL Aryanic tribes.

    The problem is that Iranians call him Iranian

    Pashtoons call him Afghan,

    I think if he would have been here today, he would have said, I am just a human being from this world.

    So shut up all.

  • @77sepehr

    you son of an Bitch names proud (((ayler of kiran )))

    Tajiks Pashtoons uzbeks hazaras Sardars

    They are all AFGHANS !!

    don try to bring hate in our mind you Dicksucker irani kuni

  • @77sepehr

    hey BACHE KUNI = IRANI HAHA

    You faggots try to steal again what ????

  • @77sepehr Avicenna is not Iranian or Persian. He was Afg or you can call him an Afg Tajik. That's the correct term for his direct descendents in Afg. today. Please stop lying and claiming the history of Afg. as your own. Anytime an Afghan is successful, Iranians claim his as their own. Even today, Iranians claim that Zalmay Khalilzad is Persian or Iranian. You make a fool of yourself with your arrogance and lies. Avicenna is Iranian just like there are no gays in Iran? :D

  • ZARATHUSTRA WAS A FROM BALKH in AFGHANISTAN
