In the late 19th century,
Ishaq Khan rebelled against
Afghan Amir Abdur Rahman at Mazar-e Sharif. Abdur Rahman sent a force against Ishaq Khan, passing through the Sheikh Ali territory. During their passage, the force faced many skirmishes with the local Sheikh Ali over the scarce food and fodder. Once Abdur Rahman quashed the rebellion of Ishaq, he then focused on Sheikh Ali Hazaras. The Sheikh Ali also resisted. == See also ==
