1878 CE

Qasim ibn Muhammad privately complains of the Ottoman presence in Qatar, but he hopes that with Ottoman support he can dominate those shaykhs in other towns who oppose him and rebuff Bahrain's claims on Az Zubarah.

These claims are obviated in 1878, however, when Qasim ibn Muhammad destroys the town as punishment for the piracy of the Naim, a tribe that resides in the north of Qatar but is loyal to the shaykh of Bahrain.
