- Title:
- Minute by Sir Bartle Frere, Governor of Bombay, on the power of the Wahabees in Central Arabia
- Scope & Content:
-
The minute by Sir Bartle Frere summarises the history of the Wahabee [Wahabi] power in Central Arabia, checks to their power about forty-five years ago and more recent incidents which are a cause for concern.
Frere refers to visits made by William Palgrave and Lewis Pelly to the Wahabee Capital, and potential reasons for their regrowth including the frailties of the ruler of Muscat and the lack of a British naval presence in the Gulf.
He goes on to highlight potential threats that the Wahabees could pose to British interests including the reviving of piracy, impeding trade and their interference with telegraphic communications, and to make suggestions on steps the British Government may wish to take, primarily through His Highness the Imaum [Iman] of Muscat rather than through direct interventions
