Hehe, very sorry...Just noticed that most replying are sisters ^^;;
"Khan" is a title used by Pathans, particularily of the Lodi clan (which I belong to), which means "Leader". What does the Arab word mean? This "Khan" is derived from of Altaic origin, common in languages such as Mongolian, and Turkic languages such as Uyghur, Kazakh, Turkmen, etc. The Pashtuns (Pathans in India) adopted this as a title after the Mongolian Khanate conquest of Afghanistan, and it ended up becoming a common surname with the Lodi Pathans as well as Rajput converts to Islam. It also became a title awarded by Muslim rulers of India who awarded it to individuals for acts of bravery.
That bit stood out of the post most.
:welcome: to the forum! I wish you an enjoyable and beneficial stay!
Jazakallah Ali and Pk_#2! ^.^
Lamees, that's very interesting, lol! I assumed it might have been of pagan origin when you said that it was used in the past! xD
Yes, that's true. I like my name, however. I don't believe in hierarchy too. When it comes to the caliphate, the most controvertial topic which lead to the Shi'a - Sunni Schism, my view is plain and simple - I don't believe in democracy (sunni view), it consider it a failiure. I don't believe in monarchy (Shi'i view), I consider it a failiure. I believe in appointment. I believe Muhammed (SAW) appointed or recommended Hazrath Ali as the first Caliph, but due to tribal politics, Abu Bakr was elected. I support the Ibadi view when it comes to the Caliphate - it doesn't matter whether the caliph is elected by the shura or inherits the post by lineage, as long as he's a just, righteous, and an able Muslim.

I am very healthy, Alhamdulilah!
I am very nonviolent these days, although I used to be a fighter. In Urdu, we say "Pathan sher ka bacha hein", which means "A pathan is the son of a tiger". It's too easy for me to lose my temper, easier so for my father. His name is Irtiaj, which means "the one who thunders"! XD
Don't worry, as much as I love to discuss controversial topics, I abhor indecent posts and flaming. ^_^

O I didn't mean that "PAST" lol..
Haha! Well, it did originate from Shamanistic times, although it has nothing to do with anything except ancient and medieval politics. ^^
Ahh I see,
Is flaming the same as flooding?
Nice to know, you're very close to becoming a full member,
Keep it up akhi.
I'm sorry, I don't know what flooding is. Can you please tell me? Flaming is when one uses personal attacks.
Okhtee... Thanks Okhtee! ^_^
It's like multi-posting the same thing or useless different things, sometimes people do it accidental, but it only counts as flooding when they post the random things in a row, usually it's done to increase post count, or trolls do this to advertise etc.
