An interview with Commander Karwan
Interviewer: Ishtiaq Mahsud
Interviewee: Karwan, Head of Dahaq Lashkar “Battalion of Right Path”, affiliated with Haqqani Network
Date: 8th October 2016
Location: Birmal area in Paktika Province of Afghanistan
Ishtiaq Mahsud: Commander Karwan belongs to North Waziristan Agency, Pakistan. He is fighting
alongside with Afghan Taliban and Haqqanis against the US and NATO forces in Paktika province of
Afghanistan. Commander Karwan is leading a group with the name of ‘’Da Haq Lashkar’’ means
‘’Battalion of right path’’.
Commander Karawan: Allah has sent us to this world only to worship Him and serve his religion. He has
sent us to perform Jihad. Jihad is a sacred tree that provides a relieving shadow to our religion. We will
perform Jihad and protect our Madrassas, our Quran and our Muslim brothers and sisters. With the
grace of Allah, if all Mujahideen are martyred, the last Mujahid standing would fight till his last breath.
Ishtiaq Mahsud: Tell me about your fight against the US and NATO forces in Afghanistan?
Commander Karawan: It has been 16 years now that America invaded Afghanistan and we took a stand
against the tyranny of the U.S oer the orders by Amir Mullah Muhammad Umar. We will continue this
Jihad till the end. After Mullah Umar, we were led by Mullah Muhammad Mansour in our Jihad. As for
now, we fight under the leadership of Mullah Haibatullah Akhunzada and will continue our fight till our
last breath. We have trained ourselves and our companions in such a way that even if all of us are
martyred and only one of us remains, that single Mujahid will continue fighting infidels until his last
breath.
Ishtiaq Mahsud: What do you think about the peace talks between Afghan Taliban and Afghan
government, and the Americans?
Commander Karawan: We don’t desire any rule or kingship. The Americans are trying to constitute
different groups and parties to attract people and convince them to join them. We will never side with
America and will never join the Americans. We only want to implement Shariah law in the whole world.
We don’t desire to rule, neither are we attracted towards worldly desires and things. We don’t befriend
infidels and their friends or supporters.
Ishtiaq Mahsud: What do you think about presence of the US and NATO forces for last 16 years in
Afghanistan?
Commander Karawan: The infidels think that they have subdued Islam but we, the Mujahideen, are
certain that we have triumphed over the infidels because right now, 90% of Afghanistan’s territory is
under the control of Mujahideen while the remaining 10% is under the control of infidels which we will
soon deprive them of with the grace of Allah.
Ishtiaq Mahsud: Tell me about your activities against the US and Afghan forces inside Afghanistan?
Commander Karawan: By the grace of Allah, since last 16 years, we’re busy in Jihad with them. Every
month, we recapture a district.
Ishtiaq Mahsud: Which areas are under your control? Who is more effective in the area, Afghan forces
or Taliban?
Commander Karawan: The movement of the infidels is limited to their redoubts and trenches. The
infidels may fool the world through sending false claims on media, but we know the reality and the
reality is that our Mujahideen do not even let them patrol openly on roads, fields and other open routes.
Ishtiaq Mahsud: What is your opinion about the current crisis going on between Pakistan and India?
Commander Karawan: We think that there are thousands of Madrassas and other religious institutions
in Pakistan and Islam is flourishing over there. If India poses a threat to those Madrassas and our
religion, our commanders would penetrate India and attack the Indians from within. Whoever dares to
oppose Islam, whether its India, America or some other country or kingdom, we will fight them till our
last breath, just like our Prophet Muhammad (SAWW) did with infidels of Mecca and made them
embrace Islam.
Commander Karwan’s message to Mujahideen.
I appeal all the Mujahideen that whoever is against Islam, Quran, Madrassas, and whoever tries to harm
our dignity and our women, we must shoot such infidels in the heads with our Klashenkovs. We,
Mujahideen and our Ameer-ul-Momineen (leader), believe that very soon Shariah law will be
implemented in Afghanistan once again, like it was in the past.
