15 views
Born in the Omani city of Sur; his date of birth is unknown, except that — as Sheikh Nasser bin Hamad bin Khalfan Al Bilal confirmed — a will he wrote for his children was found, dated 1230 AH, equivalent to 1814 CE. He was one of the well-known nakhodas. He travelled between Oman, Africa, India, Yemen and the Arab Gulf states. He owned a number of ships, among them: 1 = "Al Masoudi", of the ghanja type.
