Theories of Origin
The Yusufzais are said to be descended from one Mandai, who had two sons, Umar and Yusuf. Umar died, leaving one son, Mandan; from Mandan and Yusuf come the two primary divisions of the Yusufzais, which are split into numerous subdivisions, including the Isazai, Malizai, Akazai, Ranizai and Utmanzai. There also have been some theories that they are descended from the lost tribes of Bani Israel.
