extensive. Sultan-bin-Sakar's confederates also made more
frequent raids in the neighbourhood of Sohar, 'Azzan going
out to prevent them from approaching any of the fortified
posts, while the Seyyid Said aided him with men and money.
The Seyyid Said's suspicions of Muhammad-bin-Nasir in
creasing, he became more and more estranged from him.
He wrote to him ordering him to come to Barkah, as he
