The origin of Bajwa

Bajwa is a word derived from arabic words and means "clan of the hawk," and is a common last name amongst both Sikhs and Muslims, especially in the Punjab province of Pakistan.

From a Sikh Point of View: >Bajwa is the subcaste of Jatts who lived in Punjab.This caste is called the bravest caste of Jatts. Their founder was called Wajab. They are descendents of Sun god. Bajwa Jatts have resemblance with Bajju Rajputs. Their customs are also similar. Their ancestor was Baba Manga. They originated from Bajwat in the foothills of Jammu in the district of Sialkot.

> They take their newly wed brides to the Samadh of Baba Manga to pay obeisance. Baba Manga is worshipped. Like other Jatt Clans, they also give a cut to the tree of Jand. Baba Manga had seven sons. The eldest Naro established Narowal village, Deepa founded Kotli Bajwa and Chandu founded Chanduwal.

> The founder of Bajwa Clan, Bajwat used to live at Jaisalmer in Rajsashan. From there, they reached to Sialkot and Gujjranwala. One of its ancestors became ruler of Multan. Raja Shlip of this clan was ousted from Miltan by Alexander Lodhi. Raja Shlip had two sons named Kala and Lis. Both used to tend eagles.

> Lis migrated to Jammu. There he married to a Rajput girl. His descendents were called Rajput Bajju Kala married to a Jatt girl and settled in Paasroor area. Through marriage, Kala merged in the Jatt community. Kala’s descendents came to be known as Bajwa Jatts. Thus, background of Bajju Rajputs and Bajwa Jatts is same. Bajwa Jatts and Bajju Rajput, both are settled in Bajawat region of Jammu.

> Another legend is that their ancestor Rai Jaison was forced to leave Delhi by Rai Pithora (Prithvi Raj Chauhan). At one time Bajwa Jatts had 84 villages in Sialkot area. "

Yes thats what we had been listening from our elders. But it has been also pointed at one time that during early stage the ancestors of Bajwas were nomads and migrated from somewhere Europe to Indus in search of maybe livelyhood or ant other reasons. If anybody have such information please share and let this be known it is correct or not. Also there is a say we Bajwas are Raghuwanshi and offshoot of Rama,

I generally agree. To add, a warrior Rajput from jasalmir now in India, took 300 men under command during the Lodhi Dynasti and capture Uch Shariff now in Pakistan, and after mustering strength captured Multan city and after ruling for few years , Sikander (alexander Lodhi)defeated these Rajputes. % sond were killed in battle while two sons Kall and Sis escaped and settled at pasroor and Kashmir. since they carried Hawks for Hunting, hawk mean Bajin local Punjabi language and thus they came to know as BAJ WALA DHERa(people living with bajs)Later in colloquial language was called as BAJ WALAS which with the time became to be known as BAJWAS. Thus the Name of the Clan.Brig Riaz Bajwa 474Z DHA Lahore.

They are not brave but quite opposite. Most of them lost to Islamic invasion and were forcefully converted by Invaders.

@Piyush abhishek Singh then why don't you try to mess with one of Bajwa's and then you will come to know the reality that if they are brave or not. Regarding invasion just to correct you here that, they were Mughal invaders not Islamic Invaders, make your facts right bud. Whenever any invader invaded any land theirs always two outcomes. Either they win because the out number the people of invading land or they loose as due to people or invading land outnumber them and fight against them. Bring your facts which says bajwa's didn't fought with the invaders ferociously as they always did. Otherwise keep your big mouth mummmmm.
