Abdul Ghaffār
Khān( 1890 - 1988)
was also known as
Badshah Khan and the
Frontier Gandhi.
A political and spiritual
leader known for his
nonviolent opposition,
a lifelong pacifist and
devout Muslim.
Abdul Ghaffār Khān
founded the Khudai
Khidmatgar ("Servants
of God") movement in
1929, the world’s first
nonviolent army of
100,000 Pathans.
“Today’s world is traveling in some strange direction.
You see that the world is going toward destruction
and violence. And the specialty of violence is to
create hatred among people and fear. I am a believer
in nonviolence and I say that no peace or tranquility
will descend upon the people of the world until
nonviolence is practiced, because nonviolence is
love and it stirs courage in people.”
