Rahmah ibn Jabir, Arab Pirate

Rahmah ibn Jabir ibn Adhbi Al Jalhami (1760-1826) was an Arab ruler and pirate in the Persian Gulf region. He was ruthless, fearless, and wore an eyepatch after he lost an eye in battle. He began life as a horse dealer and used the money he saved to buy his first ship and began a career of buccaneering. He was so successful that he soon acquired a new craft: a 300-ton boat, manned by 350 men. He died in his ship Al-Ghatroushah in 1826, in a sea battle against the Al-Khalifa ships. Rahmah lit the gunpowder kegs with his 8-year-old son by his side, killing all of his men and the Al-Khalifa men that were raiding his ship.
