Abdur Rahman
In the late 19th century, Ishaq Khan rebelled against Afghan king Abdur Rahman Khan at Mazar-e Sharif. Abdur Rahman sent a force against the 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 the Sheikh Ali Hazaras. The Sheikh Ali also resisted, this low level but violent expedition by Abdur Rahman, forced the Hazaras at large to rise against Abdur Rahman, in retaliation for the attacks on the Sheikh Ali Hazaras. This Hazara uprising resulted in the Jang-i-Uruzgan ("Battle of Uruzgan").
