Sultan bin Saif II

Sultan bin Saif II (Arabic: سلطان الثاني اليعربي) was the fifth of the Yaruba dynasty of Imams of Oman, a member of the Ibadi sect.

After his death, leaving a young son as his successor, the country degenerated into civil war.

Now just a village, there still are remains of a great fortress that he built there around 1710, which contains his tomb.

[2] When Sultan bin Saif II died in 1718, his popular twelve-year-old son Saif bin Sultan II was nominal successor.

The ulama instead elected Saif's older brother Muhanna as Imam, who was soon replaced by his cousin Ya'arab bin Bel'arab, who then had to resign in favor of Saif bin Sultan II.
