There is always speculation ab...Jews of Peshawar <br /><br /><br />There is always speculation about the Jews of Peshawar. The material available on net is totally base less and wrong. If we traced back the history of Jews I n Peshawar we found that after the Soviet revolution in 1907 the Jews of central Asian states are migrated to Peshawar .when they came to Peshawar they settled in the famous Gorgatry building .In which they stayed till 1910. In Peshawar the famous setti families are doing business with the central Asia so some of the Jew may knew members of that family. The setti family allowed some of the Jews family to reside in there house in mohallah settyan moh kawhsheke bazaar Kallan . These Jews are of the two type one are very rich and the other are very poor and are street venders .who sell home made pudding, kinddy and other edible items. But the rich are doing their business of clothes selling in the Hastings memorial which now called choke yadgar. It is stated that at that time when the migrated from central Asian states the setti family are doing business in cites of the central Asian state like Bukra Taskant etc. because of that they approached to them particularly the honorary magistrate setti Karam Ilahi setti Kareem Baksh setti Abdul Gafoorr . They happily settled them in their hoses moh kawshki opposite the mosque .one family of Benjamin mairaif is settled in moh kudadad . This man is doing business of clothes in Peshawar. He has two sons Hanail Benjamin and Yushfa Benjamin and two doughtier Sara and Mazol. They are from different mothers so they quarreled with each other all the time. The eldest one Hanial Benjamin is living in other vicinity called mundi berre inside yaka toot gate. He through two time acid on his younger brother which caused his one eye fully damaged. Benjamin Mairaif has property also in mambay and Quatta. Some other Jews who are residing in Peshawar are Yuna Dadvouf Abdullah Abdul Kareem both of them are doing business of fur. Another Benjamin is also here I n Peshawar who sells chaddar (a peace of clothes traditional used by Puktoons). Two other brothers are David god and Sulman god sons of Naseer god are also doing fur business. The Jew of Peshawar city kept long beard wears loses trousers wearing traditional Jew cape on their head. Their woman are completely covered themselves in black burqa .they speaks Hebrew and Persian .after the creation of Israel some more Jew are also come from Afghanistan to Peshawar. Some prominent figure of Peshawar city have assured the than government of Pakistan that they will go back to Afghanistan. But, they don’t do that and instated of going back they migrated to Israeli via Peshawar. in the result is that their Pakistani sureties are facings court and put themselves in jeopardy one of these Jew is Seven god son of Naseer god who came to Peshawar in June 1949 .In Peshawar they don’t have any synagogue they observed their religion and don’t do any work on Saturday .They have a peace of land for their graveyard which one of the Jew David marziouf bought from a member of kawja family in 1932. But today this land is under cultivations and no sign of any grave is there. This land is transfers back to one of the member of that family through a court decree in 1973.In the walled city of Peshawar in almost in every street on every second house there is David star but they are no concern with Jew because these buildings are made by Hindus and this is a local traditional Peshawari style of windows.on one of the site is saying that these jews are migrated by force from peshawar in some one grand father arrange this exdouse isnot true . the pshawari are very friendly to them not harm any one of them during thier stay at peshawar. they opt for migration to isrial by themselves not force by Pakistani govt.

So there will be always issue with them wherever they are.Although there count is diminishing but they remain the superstar of this world. This curse was invoked by the tongue of David A.S. and Isa A.S. because of their crookedness and disbelief.And most of the pakistanis r fool concerning their beliefs in islam as they dont know that in their backyard their is pool of history lying concerning the children of israel, prophets. Deaf,dumb and blind for them their is no faith and that what most pakistanis r about with wrong Islam and ways at their hand.irfan shaikhnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12677825.post-57667701395176006062011-05-16T23:33:07.444+01:002011-05-16T23:33:07.444+01:00Zackintosh, ignore that last comment, I have seen ...Zackintosh, ignore that last comment, I have seen the stupid comment you were poking fun of, but only after scrolling through 90 comments!

She said that when she was young(teens), in the 60's, she was best friends with a Jewish girl called Lily Solomon (may be spelt Salomon). Lily had very beautiful green eyes and was a dancer. Lily's dad would accompany her when she danced at parties and she had a brother. <br /><br />Lily started dancing in clubs around the time my mum lost contact. She may have married a Muslim man and converted and might be a stage actress. My mum talks about Lily all the time, if anyone knows what happened to Lily, or even better what she is doing now, please reply.

As a diplomat's wife over the years I know she used her diplomatic immmunity often to do what she thought was best .... in Karachi I recall her regularly importing medical equipment 'illegally' imported and labelled as office equipment or furniture. I recall on one visit I was given two large boxes to bring with me from Australia as a part of my luggage. The boxes contained medical supplies which were destined for a charity who could no import these without large bribes.<br /><br />In Argentina in the 1970s I recall she sheltered 2 peolpe in her home until she could get them to Montevideo ... again in the trunk of her car. I don't know what they were shelotered for, it would not have been due to being Jewish as Argentina was pro Jewish then.<br /><br />I actually did the same thing in 1978 as a student staying in a youth hostel in East Germany ... took 2 people in the boot of my car to Est Berlin .... I had a diplomatic passport and took a German Shepard dog in the car to put the Police dogs off scent as they walked around the car. Just an impulsive thing as a 19 year old.<br /><br />I got the idea of the dog in the car from my Mother in Buenos Aires when she took the two people out. She also took our German Shepard "Begum" with her to India but whenevert she drove out of the city withoutr her driver the dog came too for secuirty. I can remember one trip with her driving from Karachi PEshawar via Multan and the hotel in Multan not liking the dog in her room, the same at Dean's Hotel (I recall the name) in Peshawar we had the dog. We drove to a village called "Darra" for the day (I think is was or similar name) and the dog came too .... probably Taliban territory now! I recall they made replica guns in the village and being quite annoyed with my mother at not being given prmission to buy a pen converted to fire a bullet.<br /><br />She drove all over Pakistan over her two years there which she regrds as some of the happiest tin her life. She was also renowned in Karachi for lavish entetaining.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12677825.post-2831046371452532622010-11-06T13:37:02.939+00:002010-11-06T13:37:02.939+00:00Hello again
