| Submission declined on 27 March 2025 by Abo Yemen (talk). The first sentence of the "Notable feats" section is uncited and needs to be re-worded. The same thing goes for the Death section, although this article seems to be the failure of the invasion rather than a biography of the guy himself

Mutlaq bin Muhammad al-Mutairi or simply Mutlaq bin Muhammad (died 1813 AD / 1228 AH ), was a Saudi General under the authority of the Emirate of Diriyah. He was well known for his Invasion of Oman until his death during a skirmish at Bidiya.[1]
Military campaigns in Oman
[edit]Mutlaq gained the trust of many Saudi Imams due to his military and leadership experience.[2] He was chosen as Emir of the Saudi army, in which he lead a huge military invasion against the Omani Empire.[3]
Conquests
[edit]During his conquests, he would conquer cites, build palaces, roads, and would even increase agriculture in the regions. His most notable feat was the Battle of Izki where his forces sacked Muttrah and defeated a mixed force of Qajars and Omanis.[2][4][5]
Death
[edit]When Mutlaq left Izki, a group lead by Said bin Sultan followed Mutlaq. Said bin Sultan would than reach the camp of Mutlaq and later on persuaded him to withdraw outside Oman.[2] Mutlaq issued an order to the greater part of his army to withdraw. Due to this advantage, the Omanis attacked his camp three times until they killed him. Mutlaq was shot by an arrow and fell face down from his horse.[3][1]
