Pashtunwali

Pashtunwali (Pashto: پښتونوالی) or Pakhtunwali is a concept of living or philosophy for the Pashtun people and is regarded as an honour code and a non-written law for the people.[1][2] Though Pashtunwali dates back to the pre-Islamic times, its practice by the pashtuns does not necessarily contravene Islamic principles.[3] It is practiced by Pashtuns in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and by members of the Pashtun diaspora around the world.[4]
