English: Bi-scriptal postcard from Kabul, Afghanistan where Persian is written in Perso-Arabic script and Punjabi is written in a Landa script, ca.1878. It is unknown which variety of the internally diverse family of Landa script was employed here. Possibly written by a member of the Punjabi community in Afghanistan at-the-time. Afghanistan once hosted a large population of ethnic Punjabis (including Sikhs, many of whom were Khatri merchants and traders). This may be a transaction receipt perhaps, as most of the Landa scripts tended to be employed for business-related manners.

Description from [1]:

In the 18th century, Hindu Khatri merchants from Punjab settled in Afghanistan and dominated the regional trade. The Sikh and Hindu population in Afghanistan may have numbered as much as 2,50,000 in the 1940s. Both communities were particularly well-represented in business and government positions. The reign of Zahir Shah was considered prosperous. Some of them were wealthy landowners. In 1947, some Hindus and Sikhs from Potohar in Northern Punjab also arrived in Afghanistan while fleeing violence during the partition of India.

So it's probably possible that it belongs to such a person from Punjab, who either just traded or was well-established in Afghanistan during that time.
