Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab Al Faihani

Pasha, Sheikh Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab Al Faihani (1863–1906) was a Bahraini merchant and pearl trader who served as the governor of the Darin village on Tarout Island under Ottoman rule. The Al Faihani Palace at Qatif is named for him.

Life Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab Al Faihani was born in 1863 in Muharraq. He received his education at the age of fifteen in Mecca, before returning to his homeland to assist his father's pearl trading business. After his father had died, Al Faihani inherited his father's business and became a prominent trader. Reportedly, he was one of the richest men in the Arabian Peninsula at the time. He also stayed in there starting from November 10, 1885.

Al Faihani became ill in the early years of the 20th century, requiring him to visit the city of Bombay, India for treatment. He died there in 1906. The palace and the adjoining Darin Castle were once under the ownership of Al Faihani's heirs, until the Saudi government was able to negotiate a deal with them so that full ownership was transferred to the government. An image of Al Faihani was erroneously spread online and attributed to Ibn 'Abd al-Wahhab, who died in 1792 before the cameras were invented.
