master Bedr-bin-Seif-bin-el-Imara-Ahmed-bin-Said ; open
the door, and let me and my companions in; if you do, I
shall leave you in your present appointment. Meanwhile,
accept from me this trifle." Kumbu inquired what it was,
and on being told that it consisted of a bag of dollars he
caused a basket to be let down and hauled it in. That done,
he said to Bedr : " Return whence you came ; if you do not,
I will fire upon youand then commenced throwing stones
at him. When Bedr informed Mujid-bin-Khalfan of what
had taken place, the latter advised him not to remain in
Maskat. Bedr and his companions accordingly left for
Habra, where they remained a few days and then started for
Nejd. On reaching ^Ajman, the demesne of Rashid-bin-
Hamld, en-Naimy, the latter entertained him and his three
companions courteously. Some days after, Bedr departed
from 'Ajman to ed-Dir^iyyah 1 , where he joined 'Abdu-'l-'Aziz,
the Imam of the Wahhabis, 2 and took up his abode with him.
The morning after Bedr's visit to the fort, Kumbu went to
Seif-bin-Handzal, el-Bu-Saidy, whom Sultan on his de
parture for the Hijj had left Wali over Maskat, informed
1 Ed-Dir'iyyah, the capital of the "Wahhabis under Su'ud the First, is
situated a little to the north-west of Riyadh, the modem capital. It was
destroyed by the Egyptian army under Ibrahim
Pasha
An Ottoman title used after the names of certain provincial governors, high-ranking officials and military commanders.
, after a siege of
five months, a.d. 1817, when 'Abdallah, the son of Su'ud the Second,
surrendered himself, and was eventually sent to Constantinople, where
he was beheaded. " The ruins of an enormous palace, and of a scarce
less enormous mosque at Derey'eeah, even now remain to attest the
magnificence of the monarch who reared them, and the old capital dis
plays, amidst all its desolation, traces of much greater regularity and
ornament than Riad can boast." Palgrave's Cent, and East. Arabia,
vol. ii. p. 39.
3 'Abdu-'l-'Aziz succeeded his father Muhammad-ibn-Su'ud, the first
political and religious head of the Wahhabis. He is here styled Imam,
though according to Palgrave that title is seldom given to the existing
^Vahhaby sovereigns. He says: " In Nejed, Feysul is sometimes, but
very rarely, denominated Imam by his subjects, and I have heard the
same word applied twico or thrice to his heir 'Abd-Allah." Cent, and
East. Arabia, vol. ii. p. 285.
