Person
Salim ibn Rashid al-Kharusi
Salim ibn Rashid al-Kharusi was an Ibadi imam of Oman, elected by scholars and tribal leaders at Tanuf in 1913 in opposition to the sultan of Muscat and his British ties. His forces took Nizwa and threatened Muscat, which was saved by British Indian troops. He was assassinated in 1920, shortly before the Treaty of Seeb gave the interior imamate autonomy.
