History of the Taherzahi tribe
The name Taherzahi or Taherzi is derived from the name of the ancestor of the Taherzais, Taher Mohammad Gargij, known as Hoot Taher. He lived in Balochistan and makran during the Afshari and Zand periods. The reason why they are called Hoot Taher (Gargich) is derived from the title of their ancestor, Malek Hassan Not, nicknamed Gargich.
Who was the king of eastern Balochistan. Malik Hassan Note is the elder of the Gargich family and their ancestor. The Gargich family is a large tribe of the Baloch people. Its history dates back to the Timurid era between 1480 AD. This indicates the originality of the Gargich and Taherzahi clans.
Taherzahi's ancestors ruled over Balochistan, present-day Pakistan, Iran, the Emirates, Oman, India, and Afghanistan, for many periods.
During the Timurid period, Hassan Noot, nicknamed Gargich, the ancestor of Taherzai, ruled over vast areas known as Eastern Balochistan. Bakr Hassan Noot was also the commander of the Chakar Azam Rand campaign

Darek, Sohrab and Arab Shahi were the nephews of Mir Jamak Degaar, the ruler of Western Balochistan, and were among the effective factors in the fight against the Portuguese.

He went to meet the representative of the subjects, Karim Khan Zand, the king of Iran. During his meeting with him, he asked for the interests of the Baloch people under his command. The traces of the sacrifice of Hut Tahir and his soldiers in the Golani region, Daf Tepe Hay (Pa Ziarat), a village in Minab, to defend the people of Giawan, have not yet been erased.And the people will not forget the bravery and sacrifices of the Taherzi tribe, while hundreds of people from this tribe have been martyred in defense of the people of the region.
