It is so stupid and backward.

I hate it. Europeans and Americans are so lucky they don't have any of this BS in their culture.

My uncle wasn't allowed to marry a girl because she wasn't from a high caste!

I also had a friend (Raja) who wasn't allowed to marry a guy from another caste, she killed herself.

That's so retarted and Hindu, we're not Hindu anymore, we're Muslim and Allah has forbidden racism and casteism in Islam.

I hate people who brag about being a Raja, Khan or Chaudary.

It really is irrelevant in this day and age.

We have enough problems without all this BS.

Allah says in the Qur'an that He made us into nations and tribes...

Identifying with a certain ethnicity/language or tribe is fine but that tribe shouldn't be given caste-status.

All tribes should be considered equal whether it's a Janjua, Chaudhary or Carpenter etc.

yes you're right......i've noticed that it's mostly in villages where people care about casts.

Yeah, the majority of Pakis are from rural/village areas so it's a really big problem.

I think it happens in city people too, I know city people who make a big deal about being Sayyed and Khan etc.
