"pokhtoon khwa"

The first sentence originally including reference to the village being "in the pokhtoon khwa". There was a non-working link, and the term needs explanation. I removed it from the article, but perhaps someone can clarify the phrase. 70.144.74.155 (talk) 14:23, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

NWFP renamed as Khyber-Pakhtoonkhwa Province

Further research needed to add verifiable information source. (Possible source: http://geo.tv/3-31-2010/62098.htm). I'm still learning how to copy edit and have not yet added references. If someone wants to do this before I get to it, please feel free. Or, your suggestions for me to complete this are welcome.Octopet (talk) 14:36, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

→ I added a reference. If anyone sees that I have not done this properly, please correct it or inform me. Thank you. Octopet (talk) 15:10, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

Religion category needs references?

I'm a new wikipedia editor, but I think this section on religion needs verifiable citation. I made copy edits and added links, but opted to leave the content as is in case someone can added references. Octopet (talk) 22:15, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

I removed unverified content and will park it here until someone can provide references and clarification: "Syed Abdul Wahab alias Akhund Panju Baba aka Baba Sahib was a famous Sufi and preacher of Islam. Thousands of Hindus embrace Islam on his hand. Baba sahib was migrated from Kalu Khan Sawabi area to Akbarpura, he started his teachings and preaching from the Misri Pura area of Akbarpura, where today his tomb is present. Baba Sahib Family is Syed and locally being called as Akhun Khel Miangaan (Syed} which still exists in the area. The Miangaan family is carrying on the Baba Sahib tasks of Preaching Islam till today, the present Gaddi Nasheen of the Akhund Panju Baba shrine is Syed Shamshad Ali Shah locally known as Pir Sb."Octopet (talk) 19:28, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

I deleted this information, as it is ambiguous and needs references. It would make a very interesting section about historical figures, if someone knows of verifiable sources: "The main and noted events of the year are the annual Urss of Akhund Panju Baba and Nanga Baba. Both shrines located at the entrance of the village and at the night of Urss thousands do visits to attend the Urss and pray. Akhund Panju Baba Urss is famous for its Milad and the speeches of religious scholars while the Urs of Naga Baba is famous for its Legendary Qawali. The famous Qawal of Pakistan Aziz Mian was a regular visitor/Performer of the Nanga Baba Urss. Free Mealing at Akhund Panju Baba at Friday is a famous lunch being known locally as "Langar" or "Khurda", this lunch is offered to every visitor and passerby and some people do eat it with a believe that it cures diseases and is good for health."

Syed Shah HAZRAT SYED ABDUL WAHAB R.A,(AKHUND PANJU SAHIB ) (1535 TO 1630.) ,AIEN AKBARI,,SHEKH PANJO SUMBILI ROHALKAND, MAZAR SHARIF AKBARPURA PESHAWAR PAKISTAN SYED AKHUNKHELThe Akhundkhel Mians (Miangaan). Akhun Baba, Akhund is the title given to any chi...ef of special sanctity,the descents of a well known saint Syed Abdul Wahab known as Akhund Panjo Baba. Syed Abdul Wahab alias Akhund Panju Baba aka Baba Sahib was a famous Akhund and preacher of Islam. Thousands of Hindus embrace Islam on his hand. Baba sahib was migrated from Kalu Khan Sawabi area to Akbarpura, he started his teachings and preaching from the Misri Pura area of Akbarpura, where today his tomb is present. Every day hundreds of people do visits the shrine to pay their respect to the Akhun Baba. Baba Sahib Family is Syed and locally being called as Akhun Khel Miangaan which still exists in the area. The Miangaan family is carrying on the Baba Sahib tasks of Preaching Islam till today, the present Gaddi Nasheen of the Akhund Panju Baba shrine is Syed Shamshad Ali Shah locally known as Pir Sb. Akhunkhel is a respectable family of khyber pakhtunkhwa who are known for their religious background. The Syed Akhunkhel Mians, enjoy special respect amongst the Pathans on account of their ancestry. These individuals were religious people who traveled many years back and the Pukhtons welcomed and honored them. Visits to shrines or ziarats were very common especially by the women, however this is gradually declining as the implications of bida't are getting familiar. The childrens of descendants are spread over various parts of the khyber pakhtunkhwa particularly in villages including Akbarpura in Nowshera district, Toru, Kati Garhi, Hamza Kot, Gujreat,Swat, and Rustam in district Mardan , Charsadda, Umarzai, Dobian Swabi, Hazara, and may other places. The saint lived in the times of Mughal Emperor Akbar who ruled India between 1555 to 1605.A few kilometres away from his shrine is the mosque where he used to educate his disciples. The strange thing about the mosque is that its old hall goes down by inches with the passage of time. And through word of mouth people say that when the whole mosques plunges inside the ground with the passage of time then it would be dooms day. Now after a few centuries lapse the mosque resembles as if its hall was a basement. The locals have made steps to enter its main hall for prayer. The detail account about this saint could find in the Tazkiratul Awoliya book, and in Awoliya-Hind (saints of Hind) book also. History also say that Akhund Baba ancestors first entered an area with the name of Symbol in pre-partitioned India and then to Kalu Khan in Swabi district, It is also said that the son of Akbar, prince Saleem (Jahangir) personally visited this saint. Akhund Panju Baba Urss is famous for its Milad and the speeches of religious scholars Free Mealing at Akhund Panju Baba at every Friday is a famous lunch being known locally as "Langar" or "Khurda", of Akhun Baba this lunch is offered to every visitor and passerby and some people do eat it with a believe that it cures diseases and is good for health.AKHUNZADAAkhund Zafar Baba's (AKHUN BABA) Actual name was Syed Kamil Shah, and he was an AfsharTurkmen who came to India as a toddler with his family, in the armies of the invading Turkmen Emperor of Persia, Nadir Shah Afshar.

Some of them are called Pashtun because of Pashto speaking. The word Pashtun people shall not be confused with Pathan tribes, Mashawanis are Fatmi and Akhunkhels Mian, Kakakhels Mian,are Hussani. Mian (Plural Miangan) all the Miangan are respected for their pious origin, forefathers, but they are not descended from one progenitor. They have come from different origins, hence they are known with various names i.e. Syed, Akhunkhel,Kakakhel, Madakhel and Akhunzada etc. Among them Akhunkhels Miangan and kakakhels Miagan are very respected. most men in the family of Akhunkhel Miangan and Kakakhel Miangan ’put "Mian" before their name, and end in "Shah." — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mian jamal shah (talk • contribs) 23:07, 11 June 2013 (UTC)

NOR; removed category "People"

I removed this text from the article as it appears to contradict No Original Research rule: "Overall Population of Akbarpura are peace loving, fun loving and traditional people, despite the fact the majority of the residents are Pattans and Pattans are famous for old enmities and gun culture, the residents of Akbarpura are non-violent and no old enmity is present in the village, gun culture is strongly condemned in public masses and rule of law has strongly being followed." — Preceding unsigned comment added by Octopet (talk • contribs) 22:22, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
