You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 3.83.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 21:48, 22 February 2026.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

The '''Khugyani''', '''Khogyani''' or '''Khogiani''' [[tribe]] is one of the [[Karlani|Karlāṇī]] tribes of the [[Pashtun]] people. The tribe originated in the [[Khogyani district]] in [[Nangarhar]] province of [[Afghanistan]]. The Khogyani District is in eastern [[Nangarhar]] province of [[Afghanistan]], near the city of [[Jalalabad]] and the [[Spīn Ghar|Kōh-i-Safēd]] (White mountain range). 
[[Image:Nangarhar districts.png|thumb|Nangarhar districts.]]  
Formerly, the tribe name ''Khakwani'' was widely used. It's still current in the Indian subcontinent.

== Background ==
((Broader|Ethnic groups in Afghanistan))
The Khogyani tribal root is the Karlāṇī Pashtuns. In the folklore origin of the Karlāṇī tribal confederacy, of which the Khogyani form a part, Karlāṇī (((lang-ps|کرلاڼي))),the Karlāṇī branch of the Pashtuns descend.((Citation needed|date=March 2024)) 

The Khogyani tribe itself consists of five clans: Mohsin Zai, Daulat Zai, Maroof Zai, Saib Zai and Chopan Zai.((Citation needed|date=March 2024))

A mountain people, Khogianis were often embroiled in wars against the [[Shinwari (Pashtun tribe)|Shinwari]] and the [[Ghilzai]] tribes. The Karlāṇī tribes in general have a reputation amongst other Pashtun tribes as especially skilled fighters. The Karlāṇī themselves maintain that they have never been subjugated by a foreign power and that they continue to live their lives by unchanged, age-old tradition.((Citation needed|date=March 2024))

== Emergence in the subcontinent ==
The ancestors of this tribe came to the [[Indian subcontinent]] some 450 years ago. The first Khogyani tribal head was Malik Shahpal, who was invited to attend the royal court by Emperor [[Humayun]]. Shahpal founded the colony Kiri Afghana in [[Multan]] city. His tribe settled((Timeframe?|date=August 2021)) there and gained a substantial amount of power and influence.((Example needed|date=August 2021))

Following Malik Shahpal, came Khudadad Khan from [[Ghazni]]. From the Chopanzai clan, he settled in the district of Multan. His [[Lineal descendant|descendant]]s influenced((Example needed|date=August 2021)) the region, with the help of the Afghan rulers. When Multan was annexed with Afghanistan, [[Nawab Ali Mohammad Khan Khakwani]] was appointed((when|date=August 2021)) as governor. He built the Mosque 'Ali Mohammad Khan'. Khogyani peoples continued to live around Multan, holding vast tracts of land with substantial holdings in [[Vehari]], Shujaabad, [[Khanewal]], [[Bahawalpur]], [[Bahawalnagar]], [[Dera Ghazi Khan]], [[Dera Ismail Khan]], [[Rahimyar Khan]], and [[Layyah]] districts of [[Pakistan]]. They are still a wealthy and influential family, and the single largest landowners of their region.

==During Pashtun rule==
Multan during the [[Mughal Empire]] flourished and had good administrative control. However, as central control waned during the decline of the empire, it was ruled by the local Pashtun tribes. The Khogyani tribe had good relations with the Afghan Mughals, as well as the [[Bahawalpur state]]. Multan remained under the Khogyani for a long period of time.((specify|date=August 2021)) It is  believed that the Khogyani gave refuge to [[Ahmad Shah Durrani|Ahmad Shāh Durrānī]]'s mother.((why?|date=August 2021)) Ahmad Shāh Durrānī was born in Multan.((when|date=August 2021)) Later, the Khogyani paid taxes to the central government in [[Kabul]] and remained the [[Nawab]]s for an extended period of time.((vague|date=August 2021))

== Personalities ==
Hazrat Chopan Khan Khogiani was a famous [[saint]] and his [[shrine]] is located in [[Ghazni]].
