Translated from Turkish by Oya Akgönenç Mughisuddin. In the early part of the 20th century, both South Asian muslims and the Anatolian muslims were suffering from cruelty and pain inflicted by the foreign powers in collaboration with the non-Muslim populations in the two regions. Both the muslim Turks and the South Asian muslims were suffering agonies in the lands where they were or had been the 'Ruling Nations'. Between the years 1919-1924, Turkey, with a great deal of human and material sacrifices, managed to remain an independent country. In the same period, the South Asian muslims set their course firmly toward freedom and independence. During his historical period, Islam linked the two countries together, Islam was not just a common belief but a philosophy that gave birth and substance to the struggle for independence.

Gutes Exemplar; der farb. illustr. Einband etwas berieben. - Vorwort von Friedrich Kußmaul. - Der Hindukusch ist ein Gebirge in Zentralasien. Bei den Geographen der Antike wurde er auch als Parapanisos bzw. Paropamisos bezeichnet. Er liegt größtenteils in Afghanistan, der östliche Teil mit den höchsten Gipfeln liegt in Pakistan. Im äußersten Osten verläuft er entlang der pakistanisch-chinesischen Grenze. Der höchste Berg ist der Tirich Mir (7708 m). … (wiki) // ... (wir wählten) das Thema "Bergvölker im Hindukusch", weil hierfür nicht nur Sammlungsgut, sondern auch ein so umfangreiches Archivmaterial zur Verfügung stand, daß man die technischen Möglichkeiten des Ausstellungsortes optimal nutzen konnte. Im Verlauf der vorbereitenden Arbeiten stellte es sich dann heraus, daß eine Beschränkung auf Material aus einem eng begrenzten Bereich innerhalb des Hindukusch der Übersichtlichkeit und Klarheit der Ausstellung zugute kommen müsse. Nach langen Überlegungen fiel die Wahl auf jenes Gebiet, das durch den Andjuman-Paß im Westen und den Ansatz des Wakhan-Zipfels im Osten seine Begrenzung findet, und das von Baharak und Zardeu im Norden sich über den Hauptkamm des Gebirges hinweg nach Süden bis Nuristan und in das Kalash-Gebiet am Westrand Chitrals erstreckt. Die Exponate stammen von Gruppen der Tadschiken (in den Gebieten von Zardeu, Baharak, Djurm und Zebak) und von Berg-Tadschiken (Sanglich und Mundjan) auf der Nordflanke des Gebirges ebenso wie von Kafiren in Nuristan und von den Kalash auf der Südabdachung des Gebirgszuges. Ethnisch haben wir es also mit Menschen zu tun, die sprachlich den Iraniern wie den Indo-Ariern zugehören: Die Tadschiken sprechen einen persischen Dialekt, die Berg-Tadschiken nordost-iranische Restsprachen, die Kafiren haben Idiome, die möglicherweise zwischen dem Iranischen und dem Indischen stehen, und die Kalash gehören zur Dard-Gruppe, die eng an die alte Sprache der arischen Einwanderer Indiens angelehnt ist. … (Fr.
