After Sa'adat Khan became the first ruler of Pakhal (1762–1780) [4] , he founded a village then known as Garhi Sa'adat Khan, on the banks of Kunhar River. The village is now known as Garhi Habibullah.

After the death of Habibullah Khan, by the Code of Swatiwali/Pashtunwali, the eldest son is set to become the next chief. [6] Ameer-Ullah Khan was the oldest son and had a right to become the new Chief of Swati tribe, but due to his religious beliefs, he gave his Chieftainship and Khanate to his younger sibling, Muhammad Ameen Khan.
