Review: Abdul Qadir Khan Khattak
Da Abdul Qadir Khan Khattak Deevan consists of Abdul Qadir Khan Khattak pashto poetry, Abdul Qadir Khan the son of Khushhal Khan Khattak, and brother of Ashraf, was born in the year AD. 1652, and is the most eloquent writer and poet of all Khushhal’s sons, several of whom were poets of no mean ability.Although his father had little reason to he very partial towards his sons generally, on account of their very unnatural conduct, and unfaithfulness towards himself on too many occasions; yet, upon the whole, Abd-ul-KIadir appears to have been a favourite, and to have shared considerably in his father’s affection.Abdul-Qadir was as good at the sword as at the pen; and in the battle with the Mughal troops at Kottah a place in the vicinity of the Peshawar district, the victory of the confederate Afghans was chiefly owing to the skill displayed by the poet on that occa-sion; and it was he also who led the assault against that fortress, which, after three hours of severe fighting, he captured. He after-wards distinguished himself, in like manner; in the war of Bangash, during which operations he was wounded; and the successes gained in the war were celebrated in his name. When his father abdicated the chieftainship of the tribe, and the sons were each struggling to supplant each other, and grasp the vacant authority, Abdul-Qadir did not hold back.
