33G THE IMAMS OP 'OMAN.
They all died in prison, with the exception of Seif-bin-Ma-
lik, who was liberated and allowed to go to et-Tau.
About this time the Seyyid Said, at the instigation of
Muhammad-bin-Seif, collected a large force of Arabs and
Hadhr and proceeded with them against el-Bahrein, but the
people of the island repulsed them. Among those who fell
in this expedition was Hamed-bin-Sultan, the Seyyid Said's
brother ; and of his officers the following : the sheikh Said-
bin-Majid, el-Harithy, and Nebhan-bin-Seif-bin-Said, ez-
Zamily, and Muhammad-bin-Salim, el-'Abudy, es-Sem:iily,
and Suleiman-bin-Ahmed, el-Hanisy, and 'Aly-bin-Habib,
es-Salty, el-Ilalmy. 1
On his return to Mdskat, the Seyyid-Said ordered the
Benu-Muhallal—whose chief at that time was Muhammad-
bin-Seif—to rebuild the castle of el-Janat. When it was
completed, Suleiman-bin-Himyar-bin-Muhammad, el-Yaa-
ruby, with some of the men of et-Tau, attacked and seized
it, on which occasion Hamid-edh-Dhala, and the slave of
'Abir-en-Naimy, and six others were killed on the side of
the el-Muhallal. Muhammad-bin-Seif also, havinsr been
^ O
burnt by gunpowder during the assault, surrendered to
Suleiman, who allowed him to go to Maslimat, where he
died.
Thereupon the war waxed fiercer between the el-Maawal
and Suleiman, the latter receiving aid in men from Muham
mad-bin-Suleiman, el-Yaaruby, the Wali of Behla, and also
from the people of el-Hazm.
1 According to the Bombay Government records this attack on el-
Bahrein was made during the summer of 1816. The Seyyid Sa'id's
object is stated to have been the reduction of the Benu-Uttub and the
el-Kawasim to his allegiance. The opportunity was well chosen, owing
to the reverses which had befallen the Wahhabis, in 1813, at the hands
of Muhammad 'Aly P&sha, of Egypt, and the additional confusion into
which their affairs had been thrown the year after by the death of their
Amir, Su'ud, and the accession of his son, 'Abdallah, The utter failure
of the.expedition is attributed to the treachery of the Seyyid Sa'id's allies.
