description: "Habibullah Kalakani, titularly known as Habibullah Khan III, and derogatively known as \"Bacha-yi Saqaw\", was the Emir of Afghanistan from 17 January to 13 October 1929, and the former leader of the Saqqawists. During the Afghan Civil War (1928–1929), he captured vast swathes of Afghanistan and ruled Kabul during what is known in Afghan historiography as the \"Saqqawist period\". No country recognized Kalakani as ruler of Afghanistan."
