"This Is the Home of the Brave" (Pashto: دا د باتورانو کور Dā də bātorāno kor) is a Pashto-language nasheed, currently used as the national anthem of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan. It is an a cappella song, meaning that it does not contain musical instruments, as instruments are considered haram by the ruling Taliban.[1] It is based on the communist-era song "Da De Azadi Khawra".[2]

The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan (under Taliban rule) had formal laws specifying its flag and emblem; however, no anthem was specified.[3] This nasheed was commonly used in the opening credits of the broadcasts by Da Shariat Zhagh ('Voice of Sharia'), the Taliban's official radio station, since the late 1990s, when the group controlled most of the Afghanistan territory, as well as in the videos published by the Taliban's Commission of Cultural Affairs. It was also used during official ceremonies.[4][5][6][7] Due to that, it is considered to be the de facto national anthem of both the Taliban and the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan.[8][9]
The recording most commonly used for this anthem features the voice of Mullah Faqir Muhammad Darwesh, a popular Taliban munshid.[10]
