THE IMAMS OF 'OMAN.
the sons of 'Omair, they prepared to encounter them, and a
desperate hand-to-hand battle was fought in which 'Aly-bin-
Himyar and many of his adherents were slain ; whereupon
Muhammad-bin-Muhenna returned to Sohar. When 'Omair-
bin-Himyar, who was at Behla, heard what had befallen his
brothers and cousin he made a solemn vow that he would
not be quits with Sohar until he had reaped it with the
sword, or burnt the place with fire and scattered its people
in every direction. He began forthwith to collect troops
both by sea and land, and went in person to Maskat in order

one of his slaves to seize Muhammad-bin-Muhenna, who had
gone out on business, while his followers, some of whom
were in one of the towers, should proceed to capture the fort.
Thereupon an alarm was raised and a fierce contest ensued
which ended in the retirement of Muhammad-bin-Jufair and
his party.
When intelligence of this outbreak reached 'Omair-bin-
Himyar, he set forth with his followers both by sea and
land, and reached Sohar on the 9th of Rabia-el-Akhir. The
fight lasted from morning till evening of that day without any
advantage having been gained by either party. A day or
two after the Christians were landed from the ships with
