STORYLINE:
A landmark constitutional convention began in Afghanistan on Sunday with solemn prayers, the hopeful songs of children and a stirring speech by the nation's former king, who echoed the aspirations of his war-weary countrymen with a call for unity and peace.
Some 500 delegates- from village mullahs to Western-educated exiles- were gathered at a huge tent in the battle-scarred capital, Kabul, to hammer out a new constitution in a traditional loya jirga, or grand council. Among the issues they were expected to spar over were the role of Afghan women, Islam's place in politics and the sharing of power in a nation accustomed to fighting over it.
"The people are relying on you and you should not forget them," the 88-year-old former monarch, Mohammad Zaher Shah, told the assembly. "I hope you will try your best to maintain peace, stability and the unity of the Afghan people."
The loya jirga is a key step in the two-year drive to stabilize the country under an empowered central government, and is supposed to lead to landmark national elections slated for June.
The king spoke after a reading from the Quran by a blind cleric and a rendition of a traditional Afghan folk song by a group of young children, wearing Nike shirts under richly embroidered traditional vests, that brought several delegates to tears.
Security was extremely tight after warnings from the U.S. military that Taliban militants might try to attack the convention. Afghan soldiers lined the roads leading up to the meeting site, and everyone entering the tent - including the delegates - was patted down for weapons and explosives.
Many delegates wore fine silk robes, some with western suit jackets slung over them. Yellow, burgundy and cream colored turbans jutted out from the crowd, as did the simple woolen caps worn famously by slain former Northern Alliance commander Ahmed Shah Masood.
It could take 10 days to several weeks for the loya jirga, meeting at a Kabul college campus, to finalize a 160-article draft drawn up by a constitutional commission.
Delegates predicted fiery arguments over calls by the U.S.-backed President Hamid Karzai for a strong chief executive, with opponents pushing for a prime minister who would share power. Karzai this week said he would not stand in next year's elections if a strong prime minister's post is created.

الله سبحانه وتعالی دی جنت الفردوس په نصیب کی
A great man and king ♔ of Afghanistan. Afghanistan turned into chaos and anarchy after him. R.I.P
That era is over and all the pure politicians have left this world. I don't see a purer government and party in Afghanistan than the Islamic Emirate.
I'd say your view belong to 7th century and not today. Few years ago 70% of Afghan 🇦🇫 people were in favour of return of constitutional monarchi 👑 of Zahir Shah, but the US turned it down. 🙋♂️
Rest In Peace our great king🇦🇫
❤️❤️❤️🇦🇫🇦🇫

Doesn't matter how many dua we make, nothing happened so far and nothing will happen in future. Dua only works with intension to establish islamic social and economic system. Unfortunately, we raise our hands but inside us we have not intension to establish islamic social and economic society. Rather we are afraid of islamic social and economic structure. This is uard to digest to many if us but unfortunately, this is truth.
