Fendi Al-Fayez
Fendi Abbas Salameh Al Fayez (Arabic: فندي عباس سلامه الفايز; 1879-1800) was an Arab leader from the Al-Fayez family who was the chief Sheikh of the Bani Sakher Clan from the 1820s up until his death. He is widely regarded as the most influential figure in the Bani Sakher and one of the most powerful tribal figures in Arabia in the 19th century. Fendi's first documented tribal battle was as early as 1820 when he was just twenty years old.
By the end of his reign he expanded his tribes' territory to cover large portions of Madaba, Um Al Amad, Al Jeezah, Al Qastal, Jibāl al Lafīfah, parts of Ajloun, Dhiban, and other areas in South Amman and in Ma'an. He would also collect Jizya in the Plains of Esdraelon and Tiberias and would stay there for vacation. Fendi's vast lands, 4,500-strong army, his leading of his army to guard the pilgrims, and his demeanor, are likely the reasons for him being attributed the title of the Old King.Fendi had 14 sons: Satm, Sattam, Tallal, Haza', S'fouq, Muhammad, Barjas, Nayef, Farhan, Jrooh, Hayel, Sahen, Saleh, and Jid'an. He was succeeded by his son Satm Al-Fayez, who was immediately faced with a schism in his family following Fendi's death.
Fendi's descendants would continue to lead the Al-Fayez family and the Bani Sakher.
