Sindhis are an Indo-Aryan ethnic group originating from and native to Sindh, a region of Pakistan, who share a common Sindhi culture, history, ancestry, and language. The historical homeland of Sindhis is bordered by southeastern Balochistan; the Bahawalpur region of Punjab; the Marwar region of Rajasthan; and the Kutch region of Gujarat.
Sindhis are the third-largest ethnic group in Pakistan, after the Punjabis and Pashtuns, forming a majority in Sindh with historical communities also found in neighbouring Balochistan. They form a significant diasporic population in India, mostly partition-era migrants and their descendants. Sindhi diaspora is also present in other parts of South Asia; as well as in the Gulf states, the Western world and the Far East.
Sindhis are a diverse group in terms of religious affiliations and practices. Approximately 94% are adherents of Islam, primarily the Sunni denomination with a significant population also following the Shia denomination. A large minority of approximately 5% adheres to Hinduism; with smaller groups, each constituting a population of less than 1%, adhering to Christianity, Sikhism and Jainism. The Muslim population forms a majority in Sindh; with Hindus mainly concentrated in eastern Sindh, forming a majority in Umerkot district with significant populations in other districts as well. Sindhis in India are predominantly Hindu with smaller Muslim, Christian, Sikh, and Jain minorities. Despite being geographically separated, Sindhis still maintain strong ties to each other and share similar cultural values and practices.
Sindhis have largely been isolated throughout their history; due to which Sindhi culture has preserved its uniqueness. Belonging to various tribes and clans, Sindhis are closely related to other Sindhic-speaking groups.
