1828 CE to 1839 CE

The rising power of the fervently Islamist Wahhabi movement on the Arabian Peninsula had cost the Zaidi state its coastal possessions after 1803.

The imam was able to regain them temporarily in 1818, but new intervention by the Ottoman viceroy of Egypt in 1833 again wrests the coast from the ruler in Sana'a.

After 1835, the imamate changes hands with great frequency and some imams are assassinated.
