He was definitely a good scholar, but his move to invite Abdali didn’t save locals from loot and rapes.

BTW, I got this piece of information from wikipedia, telling collective efforts of Afghans and Balochs against Sikhs

Ahmad Shah Durrani - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sensing danger to the cause of Islam, Shah Waliullah of Delhi wrote to Ahmed Shah Abdali asking him to help his brethren-in-faith. This was an open call for Jehad (religious war) it was Mir Noori Naseer Khan Baloch again who, with his army of twenty five thousand Baloch warriors came to the help of Ahmed Shah Abdali against the Sikh. Thus it was that a combined Muslim Army of Afghans and Baloch marched into India and defeated and crushed the Sikh in 1765

It is good that Abdali defeated rising power of Sikhs. But Sikh wars against Mughals were later supported by Rohilla Afghan allies of Abdali against the central government of Delhi.
I don’t understand the reason why Rohilla supported Sikhs when Sikhs were enemy no. 1 to Afghans.
