In Pashtun genealogy, tribes or subtribes are said to be the descendants of a common ancestor. For instance, Abdali tribesmen are said to be the progeny of Abdali (Bor Tarin), whose lineage can be traced directly to Qais Abdur Rashid, the legendary founder of the Pashtuns. The origins of the Abdalis were most likely the Hephthalites.[1][3] ^Life of the Amîr Dost Mohammed Khan, of Kabul: with his political ..., by Mohan Lal, Volume 1. Page 1-3. However, the mythical account of the Abdalis is traced to (Qais ul-Malik) Abdal Rashid (the first and founder of the Abdali tribe). Abdal had three sons, one of them was Ibrahim [Sarabun] whose first son was Sharf ud-din [Sharakh-bun] and he had a son whose name was Tarin and Tarin's son was Malik Abdul and Abdul's son was Rajjal [Rajor] after Rajjal comes his son Isa, who produced a son Sulaiman (Zirak Khan) who was the ancestor of Durranis. The Zirak line begins with Sulaiman (Zirak Khan). Zirak was father to Popalzai, Barakzai (tribes), and Alakozai.[2][3] # ^ http://www.diss.fu-berlin.de/diss/servlets/MCRFileNodeServlet/FUDISS_derivate_000000007165/01_Text.pdf?hosts=
The Sadozai trace their line back to an actual historical figure, Sado (born 1558),[3] who was made chief of the some 12,000 Abdali families living about Kandahar. He aligned himself politically with the Safavid ruler Shah 'Abbas I, who named him the "lord of the Afghans" and charged with securing the Herat-Kandahar road. He also helped the Safavid ruler to retake Kandahar in 1622, for in 1595 it had fallen into Mughal hands.
Amongst the Sadozai's, Ahmed Shah Abdali, son of Zaman Khan of Khawaja Khizer Khan Khel of the Sadozai clan of Popalzai tribe, was the most famous of all. Ahmad Khan enlisted as a young soldier in the military of the Afsharid kingdom and quickly rose to become a commander of four thousand Abdali Pashtun soldiers. After the death of Nader Shah Afshar of Persia in June 1747, Abdali became the Emir of Khorasan. This resulted in the birth of Afghan state the beginning of the Durrani empire.
After Ahmed Shah Abdali's death in 1773, the vast empire passed on to his son Taimoor Shah and his progeny which included Shah Zaman, Shah Shuja ul Mulk, Shah Mehmoud, and Shah Ayub. The great empire shrank and eventually it was passed on from Sadozai clan to Amir Dost Mohammad Khan of Barakzai clan in 1810 and to his progeny.

These two families then ruled the multan in 18th century and earlier 19th century. Ahmed Shah Abdali was the great great grand son of Khawaja khizer khan sadozai.
