Sindhi Sammat

The Sammat (Sindhi: سنڌي سماٽ; sammāṭ, samāṭr, sammāṭh) is the indigenous community of Sindhi people consisting of old native tribes, they are a large community of Sindhi Muslims. Hindu Sammats are also extant.

Sammat refers to Sindhis with indigenous origins. The Sammat tribes have existed in the region since ancient times. The Sammats are considered to be a traditionally privileged group in the Sindhi society. Sammat rulers were praised by Shah Abdul Latif Bhittai, a popular 18th-century poet of the Sindhi language. In contemporary Sindh, the Sammat castes are regarded as second in rank to Sayeds and other castes of Arab descent.

The man who worked hard to revive Sammat as Chairman Sammat Tanzeem, was Late Bahawal Khan Unar, who dedicated much part of his life to the cause he was committed to from early 80s to late 90s, since he died in 1998 and after his death things went again on a longe pause till today.
