ol-lmam. Mutlak then marched to el-Masnaah and en
camped there, and was visited by Ahmed, the son of the
Imam Said-bin-el-Imam [Ahmed], whom his father had
sent as his deputy to Mutlak. 1 The sheikh Nasir-bin-Ja'id
also felt himself compelled to have an interview with him.
The Seyyid Said hearing of all these occurrences embarked
for el-Masnaah, without previously consulting Mutlak or
asking him for a safe-conduct, and suddenly appeared in his
tent, his officers apprising him that it was the Seyyid Said
who stood before him. Thereupon Mutlak dismissed his
attendants, and taking the Seyyid by the hand drew him
towards him, saying : " You ai^e safe, as regards me and my
people, and whatever request you have to prefer shall be
granted ; for, by Allah ! you are a munificent, brave, and
chivalrous prince," The two conversed together for a long
time, and when the Seyyid Said was about to leave he said
to Mutlak, " if a present should reach you from me, pray
accept it, and cease from injuring my people, or the people
of my uncle Muhammad-bin-el-Imam, or of my cousin 'Az-
zan-bin-Kais, or of my uncle Said-bin-el-Imam." ^ All that
I grant you," was Miitlak's reply. On embarking on board
his ship, the Seyyid Said sent him forty thousand dollars,
on the receipt of which Miitlak returned to el-Bereimy and
dismissed his levies. 2 After remaining there a few days he
started for Riyadh, in Nejd, and Silud sent Ibn-'Azdakah to
replace him in 'Oman. When the latter reached ezh-Zhaf-
rat-el-Yasiyyah with his followers, they were attacked by
the Benu-Yas, who killed him and most of his escort.
1 It is clear from this remark that the Imam Sa'id-bin-Ahmed was
still alive at er-Ilastak.
2 The Seyyid Sa'id did not make this submission to Mutlak-el-Mu-
tairy until after he had appealed in vain to the British authorities in
India for assistance, urging that his cooperation with them in the late
expedition against Ras-el-Khaimah and Shinaa had greatly embittered
the animosity of the Wahhabis towards him, and threatened to involve
him in perpetual warfare with their Amir.
