The Kalhora (ڪلهوڙا) or Kalhoro, a family of the Abbasi clan are a people of Arabic origin who are descended from Abbas ibn Abd al-Muttalib (العباس بن عبد المطلب), (c. 566 – c. 653 CE). Kalhora is now used as a surname. Abbas was a paternal uncle and sahabi (companion) of the Islamic prophet, Muhammad. He was the progenitor of the Abbasi khalifa (caliph) of Baghdad, Iraq and Qahira (now, Cairo, Egypt). The Kalhora dynasty ruled Sindh, a province of Pakistan from 1701 to 1783 CE.
