Good morning, Dr. Geelhoed:
I corrected the address and the mail will go out today.
Thank you for the new material you sent me. I did not have a chance to read
it, but I will.
Your "From Kuwait to the Khyber Pass" seems to me the most interesting out
of everything I received from you so far. I like your style, which is a
combination of epistolary and scientific genre, your attention to the
details: there is so much history behind some of the definitions, like the
one you mentioned ‑ "mukhajjiry" (phonetic transcription) (the word is
"hajj" is pilgrimage). It is interesting that for the first time the word
mukhajjir was applied to the people who followed Prophet Muhammad from Mecca
to Medina.
The story about your close acquaintance with one of the maliks or sardars
how they are called in other places is very dramatic. I am fascinated over
historical and political "injections" you make in most of the parts of your
essay. It is interesting how much the people of South and Middle Asia
intertwined during the way of their historical evolution. For example the
founder of the Mogul Empire was Uzbek. You are absolutely correct about the
Pakistanis in Bangladesh. There they have a different word for the
mukhajjir ‑ Bihari.
Will be glad to write to you more. Wish you a wonderful day.
Thank you for the new information.
Djennet

Thanks!
The number in the address should be 16618 Kipling Road, otherwise everything
is OK
Did you go through "The Khyber Pass?"
If you would like my introduction to things Russian, from Moscow, to
Kamchatka, through St. Petersburg. I will attach some more stories.
Cheers!
