The small city of Abu 'Arish, about 20 miles east of Jizan, was ruled by a local tribal sheikh, although like the coastal town of Jizan it was nominally under the Ottomans from the mid-16th century until 1917, though from time to time local sheikhs rebelled against the Ottomans. Although under the Wahhabi rule at the beginning of the 19th century, it was reclaimed by the Ottomans after Muhammad Ali Pasha's invasion of Nejd in AH1226/1810, but in AH1234/1818 it was seized by the Sulaymani Sharif's, only to be retaken by supporters of the Ottomans a few years later. This coin was probably struck during the 1810-1818 Ottoman "occupation", which more accurately meant that it was actually controlled by pro-Ottoman tribal leaders. The sheikhs struck their coins anonymously to protect their own position.
