Asalamu Alaikum
Yes, we have a rich history. It's a shame most of us do not particularly care about it.
Majority Pakistani place their religious identity i.e Islam or their national identity (country/ethnic group) above everything else i.e caste/tribal identity/clans etc though Islam did in fact support and recognize our tribal identity. calling ourselves Gujar, janjua, Awan, Jats, Bhatti, Minhas is simply a matter of lineal heritage or martial upbringing which is not exclusive to particular religion or country. If Hindus has concept of Kshatriya then Muslims have concept of Mujahid.
Many Muslim Rajput kings changed their names after converting to Islam but also have retained their ancestral/lineal titles. Its common for average people to not know the background of their caste/clan/tribe. I know many people in my native village matore who proudly call themselves Janjua but 99 percent would have zero knowledge about history of Janjua i.e where they came from, when embraced Islam, where they got settled etc. Its true for others castes/tribes in every other village of Pakistan. People should get information about these just for sake of knowledge and understanding.
