Sindhi Pathan (Sindhi: پٺاڻ) is the name of Pashtun communities living in Sindh for centuries that have adopted the norms and culture of Sindh.

Many bear the tribes Naghar, Agha, and Kakar. The vast majority of Sindhi Pathans originate from Quetta and southern Afghanistan, and a few come from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Shikarpur, New Zarkhail, Pir Bux Wandh, Garhi Yasin, and Sultan Kot Shahpur Chakar, whereas others live in other urban, sub-urban, and rural areas of Sindh. The tribes most commonly found in the Sindh region are the Tareen, Muhammadzai, Niazi, Kundi, Miana, Bangash, Yusufzai, Hassan Zai, Mandanr, Lodi, Kakar, Shinwari, Sherwani Orakzai, Sulemankhel Sulemani, Afridi, Khattak, Kakazai, Karlani, Barakzai, Khizerzai, Babar, and the Zamand Pathans.[1][2]

Moreover, a large minority of Pashto-speaking Pashtuns exist in the cities of Karachi and, to a lesser extent, Interior Sindh, who have migrated after around the 60's and 70's and even a portion of these Pashtuns are Afghan refugees. Also, it's estimated that 30% of the Urdu-speaking Muhajirs of Karachi and Hyderabad make a claim to the ancestry of Pashtuns that mostly assimilated into North Indian culture. They have arrived in the cities after the India-Pakistan partition. Pashto-speaking Pashtuns are highly distinct from ancestrally Pashtun Urdu-speaking Muhajirs as well as ancestrally Pashtun Sindhi-speakers.
