Can Atrial Fibrillation Cause Blood Clots?

Can artial fibeilation cause blood clots. My husband is in the hospital and i just found out my father in law is too. And my father in law found out he has AFib and my husband found out he had blood clots in hs lungs. Could that be related? Would ask his doctor but he s gone for the day. Hope I didn t confuse you. Thanks.
