Abstract: This study examines the influence of Pakhtunwali on the development of internal conflicts within the Afridi tribe in Kohat. The study employs a combination of qualitative and quantitative approaches, where participants are chosen via stratified random sampling. Data is gathered through in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, and questionnaires. The findings demonstrate the importance of Pakhtunwali in shaping societal norms and resolving conflicts, as well as the many viewpoints on morality and retribution. Suggested measures encompass cultural conservation, legislative restructuring, and active involvement of the community to tackle present-day difficulties. The study places a high priority on ethical considerations. The research provides valuable insights into the development of effective conflict resolution and peacebuilding tactics within the Afridi tribe and other similar communities.
