History of Baloch itself is witness of their bravery. But besides bravery,
Baloch are well-known for their Tribal culture and traditions. In the same way,
when life became tough for the Baloch living in Iran owing to the atrocities of
Muhammad Reza Shah and the tribal chiefs, Dad Shah thus picked up guns against
them. He along with his brothers and Sister, Bibi Mahatun, and few friends went
to mountains to fight against atrocious reign of Shah and cruel tribal chiefs.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="line-height: 200%;">Dad Shah, who
was basically a farmer in the village of Nillag in the province of
Sistan-O-Balochistan, Iran, was born in 1919. His father’s and mother’s names
were Kamal and Hathun respectively. He had three siblings: two brothers, Ahmad
Shah and Mohammad Shah, and a sister, named Mahathun. Dad Shah married
Noorhathun, who was the daughter of Pir Dad, one of his close relatives. They
were living a happy life in their small world.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

pages of history, we will find that the resistance of Baloch in Iran came as a
result of repression on the Baloch. Baloch believed that Reza Shah was
suppressing their culture in Iran. Similarly, the basic reason of the
resistance of Dad Shah was the calumny that he received as a result of an
appalling plot of Ali Khan, who was the enemy of Dad Shah. Ali Khan Killed his
cousin, Ayub Khan to hold his power in maximum areas. Thus people in his
vicinities went against him and didn’t accept him as the ruler of their areas.
Dad Shah’s family was also against him and wanted to take the revenge of Ayub
Khan since his father was a great supporter of his. In 1944, Kamal, who was the
father of Dad Shah, along with his sons and some other friends, attacked the
fort of Ali Khan. Some of the persons of Mir Ali Khan were killed.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 200%;"> Finding
Dad Shah and his family his bloody enemies, Ali Khan wanted to drag his name
through the mire by planning some tricky plots. He along with Abdul Nabi, who
became the enemy of Dad Shah later, planned a plot to send Laluk, the cousin of
Dad Shah, to steal the gun of Dad Shah, which could be a cause of the calumny
for Dad Shah since he had a great honor for his weapon and never let anybody
touch that. Laluk did what he was told. But it was unfortunate for him that he
was captured red handed by Dad Shah. Laluk told the whole story behind his
guilt he committed, as he tried to prove himself guiltless. Unfortunately, when
Mir Ali and Abdul Nabi found that Dad Shah had become aware of their plot, they
spread unexpected word in public that Laluk had unfair relationship with his
wife, which was completely untrue and unbearable to Dad Shah. To remove the
calumny that he received from Mir Ali, he killed his wife and went to mountain
to revenge Mir Ali as it became a matter of shame for Dad Shah to sit silent.
He started attacking the persons of Mir Ali. Finding him a hurdle in his way of
ruling, Ali Khan took the help of the army and requested Shah to fight against
him, saying that Dad Shah could be a hurdle for his reign. Shah accepted his
request and sent army to his area. On the other hand, Dad Shah received support
from Muheem Khan Lashari and Essa Khan Mubaraki to fight against Mir Ali Khan
since they were the bloody enemy of his.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 200%;">After a short
period, when Rahim Dad, a companion of Dad Shah, was killed by the puppets of
the Shah near Pannuch, Dad Shah sent a letter to the Sardars and other
authorities of Pannuch, saying that he had accepted some their conditions, but
they hadn’t honored their promise by killing his close companion; he would take
the revenge of Rahim Dad and there would not be any Pannuchi, who would survive
in front of the bullets of his gun. Right after this message, Dad Shah attacked
Mulla Nawab, the arch rival of his. Two persons of Mullah Nawab were killed in
the conflict. In the meantime, eight more people were killed in ‘Dihan’. People
blamed Dad Shah and his companions for the killings, but actually the killers
were not known. Because of these killings, Sarwan Khalil Khan Rigi, who was
leading the army to handle the situations of Pannuch, was called by the
government and was made humiliated for he couldn’t handle the situation. Sarwan
Rigi wanted to remove the black mark that he got by the government; therefore,
he planned a plot by sending a message to Dad Shah, stating that he had talked
to the government for mending fence in the area. He asked Dad Shah for sending
some of his friends to get the proposal confirmed. Dad Shah still wanted peace
in those areas; therefore, he sent four of his colleagues- Rustum, Pirdad,
Abdul and Murad to Sarwan Khalil. But Dad Shah wasn’t aware of the conspiracy
of Khalil Rigi. By reaching there, they were arrested as Khalil conspired<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 200%;">Right after this
incident, a conflict began between Dad Shah and Zhandar Mari’s army at the
“Barchik” check post in the mountains. Two soldiers of Dad Shah were killed.
From there, Dad Shah went to Pakistani Balochistan.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 200%;">Sarwan Rigi
faced failure in every step that he took against Dad Shah; hence, he requested
the government to increase the number of the arm forces as well as the weapons;
and he also requested to give arms to chiefs of Lashsari and Mubaraki so that
they could better handle the situations of the areas. The government accepted
the request and provided weapons to the chiefs of Lashari and Mubaraki tribes;
but the fact is that Dad Shah had never attacked their areas (Chaamp and
Ahuran). It was a political plot of Khalil Rigi as he wanted the army to go to
the mentioned areas for the recovery of weapons of the Baloch in order that
they must not be able to go against the Shah. The trick worked, soon the
weapons were recovered.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 200%;">In 1955, the
Shah of Iran, Muhammad Reza Shah went to Pharag (Iranshahr) for a visit. Essa
Khan Mubaraki didn’t want the citizens of his area to meet Shah; however, they
sent a letter to the Shah. They mentioned that Essa Khan Mubaraki and Muheem
Khan Lashari were the supporters of Dad Shah; as a result, Shah called Essa and
Muheem and asked them about Dad Shah, and ordered them to bring the episode of
the insurgency of Dad Shah to a close as soon as possible. They were also taken
into custody but Muheem Khan was released right after two days. Muheem Khan and
Essa Khan became fully aware of the situation; therefore, with broken hearts,
they raised hands towards Zhandar Mari for friendship to fight against Dad Shah.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div style="line-height: 200%; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 200%;">Moreover, on
26th of March 1957, three Americans along with two Iranians were killed in
‘Tanksarha’, in Iranian Balochistan, which drew the attention of the Iranians
and the Americans towards Dad Shah as the Iranian blamed Dad Shah for killing
three Americans (Kevin Karl, Anita Karl, and Wilson). Many Iranian writers
wrote that on 24th of March 1957, Dad Shah along with his twenty four
companions killed the Americans when they were on the way to Chahbar. The
Iranian newspapers and writers tried to prove Dad Shah a ‘terrorist’. And they
got succeeded. Americans also dubbed him a terrorist. American and Iranian
governments announced a huge amount of money as reward for his head. At the
same time Iranian and Pakistani government agreed to fight jointly against Dad
Shah.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 200%;">In 1957, a
conflict broke out between Dad Shah and Iranian forces near the border of
Pakistan Balochistan. In this war, young son of Dad Shah was assassinated and
his sister got injured. From there, Ahmed Shah with his sister and children
left them and went to ‘Hung’ to take harbor in a house. Unfortunately, they
were arrested by the Pakistani forces right after reaching there and they were
handed over to Iran.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 200%;">As a result of
this act of Pakistani government, a sense of anger emerged among Baloch, which
later made the government realize the mistake it had made. For the fear of
nationalism in Pakistani Balochistan, the government of Pakistan declared that
it had no role to arrest Dad Shah any longer. When Dad Shah came to know that
his brother and sister along with children had been arrested and handed over to
Iran, the anger of his grew higher for his enemies; he went to Iran to face his
enemies. Right after reaching there, he attacked the house of Din Muhammad, one
of his enemies, where his children got injured.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="line-height: 200%;">Mir Dad Shah
continued his struggle against the Shah though he had an army of not more than
thirty to forty. However, it is said that war is never won by weapons and
armies, wining a war depends on the faith of those fighters who are struggling
and fighting for a purpose. The purpose of Dad Shah was to fight for his honor
and later for the people of Balochistan against the reign of Shah of Iran. The
very reason made him so brave that he stood in front of thousands. The
courageous army of Dad Shah killed hundreds of Iranian army; but, at last, the
struggle of the brave warrior of Baloch came to an end as he was deceived by
the tribal chief Mir Muheem Khan by calling him for negotiation for releasing
his brother Ahmad Shah.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

before that Dad Shah enjoyed a good patronage from Muheem Khan while fighting
against Mir Ali. Therefore, Dad Shah considered Muheem Khan his friend and
never expected that he would be deceived by him. But, alas! On a rainy day of
October 1957, Dad Shah along with his brother, Mohammad Shah, and some other
companions went to ‘Hashth Koh’ to receive his brother as Muheem Khan had lied
that his brother, Ahmad Shah had been released as a result of the negotiation
between Muheem Khan and the government. While reaching there, Dad Shah realized
that Muheem Khan had lied as his brother was not with them. With anger, he
asked for his brother. Muheem Khan replied him that Ahmad Shah was not feeling
well; therefore, they couldn’t bring him there. In the meantime, the
altercation started between them. During the argument, Muheem Khan took his gun
out and fired at Dad Shah, thus the valor slept forever and left thousands of
Baloch to ponder over the atrocities rendered them adversity.   <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Shay Murid and Hani:The Famous love Story

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
Shay Murid and Hani are two famous and living names which
reflect their glories in the pages of Baloch history, and their tragic love
story is heard almost in every house of Balochistan. Shay Murid was the son of
Shay Mubarak and Hani was the daughter of Mir Deenar. Hani was Murid’s cousin
and was betrothed to Murid in childhood. She was known for her good character
and faithfulness.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
Legend has it that one day when Mir Chakar Rind with his
companions was returning from a day of hunting, they felt thirsty. They stopped
at the town where Murid’s fiancée (Hani) lived. Chakar went to Mir Deenar’s
home and asked for water, there was nobody except Hani.  Hani brought him
clean water in a silver bowl in which she put dwarf palm leaf, properly washed.
Mir Chakar was surprised by the pieces of straw; however, he drank the water
with care so as to avoid swallowing the straw. Seeing this, Mir Chakar got
engrossed in thinking about Hani’s act of putting pieces of straw in the water.
Later, he realized that Hani had acted wisely by putting pieces of straw into
the water. Since he drank water on empty stomach and could be choked by
drinking it in a single gulp. Mir Chakar was so impressed by the act of Hani;
thus he wanted to marry her. He sent Sazen, the courier of Chakar, with the
company of another old woman for selling things but their intention was to pop
the question for Hani to her father. However, Hani was already betrothed to her
cousin Shay Murid; Sazen did her utmost to woo her to leave Murid and marry
Chakar; but her all efforts went in vain as Hani refused and took them out of
her home. It is said that in the meantime, Sazen promised that one day Hani
would surely be the bride of Chakar.   </div>

engagement of Hani and Shay Murid. Sometimes later, Mir Chakar organized a
gathering of nobles as well as poets who shared poetry. At the height of it,
Mir Chakar asked the nobles to make vows on which they must sacrifice their
lives if required. Every chief at the gathering made a promise. Mir Jado
promised that he would chop off the head of anyone who touched his beard at the
assembly of nobles. He was followed by Mir Haibitan, who vowed, if anybody’s
camel joined his camel-herd, he would never give it back. Mir Chakar promised
that he would sit under the shadow of a tree, whosoever chopped it down; he
would never make a move from the shadow of it until it is chopped down. He was
true to his words. At last came the turn of Shay Murid, who promised, if anyone
asked for anything in his possession on Thursday morning, he would give.</div>
<o:p></o:p><br />
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
Right after a short period, Mir Chakar tested Mir Jado’s
word by asking his young son to touch his father's beard during an assembly of
nobles. The young boy innocently did what he was told. Mir Jado turned his face
and moved the boy, believing that no one noticed; however, Mir Chakar told the
boy to repeat the action. The boy grabbed his father's beard once again. The
entire assembly became silent and looked towards Mir Jado whether he would be
true to his word. Jado, full of anger, unsheathes his sword and smote the head
of his innocent son in the presence of all the nobles. Mir Chakar also found
others true to their words. Now it was time to test Shay Murid, which Chakar
had been waiting for. Chakar sent some minstrels to Shay Murid after offering
prayers on Thursday morning as Chakar conspired to get Hani. He instructed the
minstrels to ask for Hani from Murid as their reward after making him pleased
with the songs of praise. And they did what they were instructed.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
Shay Murid became completely shocked. He thought, Chakar
would ask for his bow which was unique but Chakar didn’t. With a heavy heart
and sadness, Shay Murid, true to his words, surrendered Hani to Chakar. The
unexpected demand distressed him deeply, and Murid realized that he had lost
Hani. He thought if he had not kept his promise, he would have been mocked at
the exact time as well as in the future.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
After the annulment of Murid’s engagement with Hani, Hani
was soon married to Mir Chakar. But Murid was so shaken by this turn of actions
that he abandoned his former lifestyle and passed the days and nights in
worship of Allah. Shay Murid couldn’t bear to live in Sivi (Sibi now), the town
of theirs; he decided to leave his native place and followed a group of
mendicant going to perform their pilgrimage (hajj) at the holy cities of Makka
and Madina. He remained there for a long span of time. During this period of
his life; he truly became a mendicant.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
After spending years away, he returned to Sibi in shabby
clothes with his long hair hanging down to his shoulder. In the company of
beggars, he passed himself off as an unknown mendicant begging for alms at the<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><st1:place style="font-family: 'Bookman Old Style', serif;" w:st="on"><st1:placetype w:st="on">palace<span class="apple-converted-space"></span></st1:placetype> </st1:place>of<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><st1:placename w:st="on">Mir
Chakar Rind</st1:placename>.
The maidservant gave bowls filled with grain to each mendicant, but when she
presented this food to Murid, she noticed that his eyes were fixed upon Hani.
Hani recognized him at once but held herself back as not to raise suspicions.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
To recognize Shay Murid, the Rind nobles gathered for an
archery competition. During the contest, the nobles noticed the interest of
Murid, who was the leader of beggars. At first, the Rind nobles laughed at him
because of his shabby clothes, asking that how a mendicant dressed in torn
clothes could bend a bow and hit a target; however, they gave him a bow and
arrow. He bent the bow but it could not bear the power of his arms and broke
into pieces. They gave him another one which he also broke. After breaking the
third bow, the Rind nobles started realizing that he might be Shay Murid. They
sent someone to fetch Murid’s bow, which was made out of steel and was called
‘jug’ (yoke) because of its form and weight. When it was given to Shay Murid,
he touched and kissed it gently. After examining it perfectly as a master
archer, he bent the bow with great skills and shot three arrows from it which
hit the exact target. The Rind’s suspicion that the beggar was actually Shay
Murid, was confirmed after the experiment with the bow. The Rind nobles stopped
Murid and sent a servant to ask Hani for Murid’s distinguishing signs or marks
which she would know, for the reason that they had played together as children.
Hani told of a mark which was behind his eyebrow. When the Rinds checked the
sign, they, eventually, recognized Shay Murid.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="line-height: 200%; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
Although Mir Chakar married Hani, he was unable to
consummate the marriage.  Later he realized that Hani could never truly be
his. When he found out that Shay Murid had returned, he told Hani that Shay
Murid was a great man and deserved her. Therefore, he divorced her and told her
to go to Shay Murid. Hani decided to go to Murid, the first and only love of
hers. She told him Mir Chakar had realized his mistake and had freed her;
therefore, they (Shay Murid& Hani) could be together. Although it is still
not clear whether they married or not, many believe they married and the same
