The most badass Afghan commander of all time. Shafi was an ethnic hazara commander who was anti-Talinan and was nicknamed “Shafi Dewana” AKA Crazy Shafi due to his unorthodox war tactics. It was reported he would stand directly in front of enemy fire while standing on top of crates and shoot at the enemy. Also he would intentionally yell to draw out the enemy which confused them. These actions earned him the nickname “Shafi Dewana”
