The leader of the region's Druze clans took an interest in al-Jazzar after he was taken into the care of the emir of Mount Lebanon. Al-<mask> was in Mount Lebanon for a period of time before looking for work in the coastal cities. He was unable to find a job and left for Damascus. For the third time, <mask> traveled to Egypt to retrieve money and other valuables from his home. He wore a disguise to avoid detection by the authorities.He returned to Syria after a short trip to Egypt. The Ottomans besieged Sidon in 1772 to oust the forces of Zahir al-Umar and Nasif al-Nassar. The Russian fleet was requested by Zahir to bombard Lebanon, which was under the control of the Ottomans. The siege was lifted in June. On 18 June, the Russians began bombarding Lebanon, but Emir Yusuf paid them to stop. Al-Wakil was requested to bolster the defenses of Lebanon because of the fear that Zahir would occupy the city. In response, al-Wakil dispatched <mask> with a force of Maghrebi soldiers and appointed him muhafiz.Lebanon's fortifications were upgraded by Al-Jazzar. According to Philipp,

texts: "Beirut became the first stepping stone of <mask> al-<mask>'s career in Syria". In 1772, Abu al-Dhahab offered 200,000 Spanish reals to kill al-Jazzar in a sign that the Mamluks of Egypt still hated him. The offer was refused by the Emir. Al-Jazzar justified his presence as being in defense of the Ottoman Empire by using Lebanon as his own power base. In order to get al-Jazzar to withdraw from Lebanon, Emir Yusuf appealed to al-Wakil. The latter did not accept the request for assistance.Al-Wakil believed that al-Jazzar would prevent another important Syrian port city from falling to Zahir and that he would provide a launch point for an offensive against Zahir. Through bribes, the Druze clans were able to prevent the Druze forces from ousting Jazzar. In order to oust al-Jazzar, the Emir wanted to form an alliance with Zahir. The expedition sent by al-Wakil was repelled by Zahir. Zahir's success prompted Emir Yusuf to seek the assistance of the Russian fleet by appealing to Zahir, the Russians' ally, to intercede with the Russians on his behalf. The Russians began bombarding Lebanon on 2 August after agreeing to the request. Despite the heavy naval

Zahir dispatched al-Jazzar and his men to help collect the tax from the area between Jaffa and Jerusalem for the annual Hajj caravan. Zahir refused al-Jazzar entry into the city due to suspicions that his request was a ruse to enter the city without resistance. With the money he stole, al-Jazzar left for Damascus. Al-Jazzar left for Constantinople.He used his charisma to get the favor of the sultans. He was appointed sanjak-bey in western Anatolia. The Ottomans redoubled their efforts to end Zahir's rule after securing a truce with the Russians. Zahir was killed on August 22. In September, Sultan Abdul Hamid I appointed al-Jazzar muhafiz of Acre, and prior to his departure to Constantinople, the Ottoman admiral who led the campaign against Zahir gave control of Acre to al-Jazzar.

In May 1781, Nasif confronted <mask>'s forces on al-Jazzar's behalf. Al-Jazzar's relations with Nasif soured when the Shia sheikh of Hunin requested al-Jazzar's intervention against Nasif. Nasif and his Ali al-Saghir al-Wa'il clan were attacked with 3000 troops by Al-Jazzar. On 23– 24 September, al-Jazzar's forces routed Nasif's forces, killing Nasif and 470 of his cavalrymen in a three-hour-long battle. The last place where the Shia clans made a last stand was the Beaufort Castle, where most of the leading Shia sheikhs were killed.Following their surrender, al-Jazzar coordinated their flight to the Beqaa Valley. The leading Shia sheikhs took refuge in the Beqaa Valley. Shia women and others were taken captive by the Druze in Sidon after the defeat of the Shia sheikhs. The fortresses of the Shia were largely demolished after huge amounts of valuables were seized. Nasif's son 'Aqid launched a last-ditch effort against al-Jazzar's forces in the Beqaa Valley, but he fled during the battle. The port city of Tyre

In the wake of <mask> al-Azm's death, Al-Jazzar's attempts to gain the governorship were unsuccessful. The power of the governorship of Damascus was not given to al-Jazzar, but to a man who died 29 days into office and was replaced by Darwish al-Kurji. After a year, the latter was replaced by Muhammad Battal. The Sublime Porte appointed al-Jazzar to the governorship after he bribed officials in Constantinople. One of Al-Jazzar's senior mamluks and treasurer, who was named wali of Sidon, was replaced by another of his senior mamluks, who was named wali of Tripoli. In mid-April, Al-Jazzar left for Damascus with a ceremonial procession.Since becoming wali of Sidon in 1777, al-Jazzar has resided outside of Acre. In 1785, the Sublime Porte sought al-Jazzar's advice on how to address the increasing independence of

texts: Egypt's Mamluk rulers. According to Al-Jazzar, the Ottomans should launch an expedition against the Mamluks with 12,000 soldiers, appoint a governor with previous political experience in Egypt, and give gifts to the soldiers in order to get their support. After the war with Russia resumed in 1786, the Ottomans were ordered to withdraw from Egypt, even though they had launched an expedition led by Hasan Kapudan. In June and July 1755, al-Jazzar made the dawrah in Palestine, which was mostly part of Damascus Eyalet. Many of Palestine's inhabitants left their villages because of the brutal dawrah that year. During the dawrah, al-Jazzar defeated the local forces of Nablus and installed one of his mamluks, Qasim Bey, as the tax collector of Jerusalem.During the dawrah, al-Jazzar used violence to stamp his authority in Palestine. <mask> left Damascus for Mecca in command of the Hajj caravan in October, after completing the amir al-hajj of the Syrian pilgrimage caravan. Around January 1786, Al-Jazzar returned from the Hajj. The Damascus, Sidon and Tripoli eyalets were under al-Jazzar's direct rule or that of his lieutenants by mid-July. The ire of

The two men were sent to Hasbaya with 2000 cavalry and 800 infantry. The large amount of troops sent for a relatively routine procedure such as collecting taxes was actually an attempt by al-Jazzar to avoid contributing his forces to the Ottoman war effort with Russia by demonstrating how his forces were still needed to combat. Al-Jazzar became aware of sexual relations between his mamluks and women from his harem on 8 May. Acre's seraglio was where the harem was located and he cut off the arms of the mamluks who were based there. Many people were arrested and executed by al-Jazzar with the assistance of 30 Bosnian soldiers.

After a revolt by imperial Janissaries from the Citadel of Damascus led by Ahmad Agha al-Za'faranji and aghawat from the southern quarter of al-Midan against Ibrahim Deli, the latter was able to suppress it. However, unlike his first term, al-Jazzar chose to remain in Acre and appointed one of his close advisers, Muhammad Agha, to administer the internal affairs of the province on his behalf. Al-Jazzar reestablished his monopoly on the grain trade of Damascus and Hauran through Muhammad Agha. The Wali of Sidon was still commanded by Al-Jazzar. In contrast to his first term as Wali of Damascus, where al-Jazzar officially relinquished Sidon Eyalet to his subordinate and then struggled to persuade the Sublime Porte to restore him to the governorship of Sidon after being dismissed as Wali of Damascus in 1786, this term was The rivalry between Al-Jazzar and the Azm family resulted in an alliance between the aghawat of al-Midan and the northern city quarters.The financial harm they experienced with the

During al-Jazzar's second term, there was a commercial interest between them and Jewish merchants from Acre and Damascus. They were al-Jazzar's mutasallims in various districts of Damascus Eyalet. The feud between al-Jazzar and the Azms intensified when Muhammad Agha had Ali Bey al-Azm, a son of <mask>, killed by poison on orders from al-Jazzar. Al-Jazzar appointed al-Za'faranji as mutasallim of Hama, a stronghold of the Azms, which supported Ibrahim Deli against him. Prior to his departure to command the hajj caravan in 1791, al-Jazzar had Muhammad Agha execute al-Za'faranji, likely out of fear that the latter, who was a popular commander and from the northern quarters, would conspire against him. Dozens or hundreds of Damascenes were executed during al-Jazzar's second term.According to Philipp and Dick Douwes, the executions were overseen by Muhammad Agha, who was known to be oppressive and unpopular.

In his second term as Wali of Damascus, al-Jazzar fought against the Jarrar and Nimr clans to take control of Nablus Sanjak. He established an alliance with the Tuqan clan and appointed Musa Bey Tuqan as mutasallim of Nablus.The siege at Sanur ended in failure and heavy casualties. Al-<mask> was dismissed from the governorship of Damascus in 1795, marking his second term as Wali of Damascus. General Bonaparte conquered Egypt in 1798 as part of his campaign against the Ottomans. The Ottomans replaced the Wali of Damascus with the target of an uprising after the French invasion. The troops of Al-Jazzar restored order in the city after he was appointed to a post akin to a governor. During his visit to Damascus, al-Jazzar beheaded many aghawat with their heads on display at the gate of the citadel. In February 1799, Bonaparte entered Palestine, first occupying

After considering al-Jazzar's request, Sultan Selim III's military advisers decided that appointing al-Jazzar to Egypt would make him difficult to remove from the province. Ottoman control in Egypt was restored thanks to an army assembled by the Ottomans. After al-Jazzar's third and shortest tenure in Damascus, the governorship of Damascus was restored to <mask> al-Azm. During the 19th century, the Ottomans and the British defeated the French in Egypt, and during the 20th century, Muhammad Abu Maraq was appointed the governor of Gaza and Jerusalem. It was

Al-Jazzar considered Jaffa to be of immense strategic importance to his rule in Acre despite the city being in the jurisdiction of the Damascus Eyalet.The Ottomans issued a firman condemning al-Jazzar as a rebel. The siege of Jaffa began when Al-Jazzar dismissed the firman and continued until Abu Maraq surrendered. The imperial support for Al-Jazzar's rule was restored after he amassed large funds and directed his lobby of influence in Constantinople. The Ottomans reappointed <mask> Wali of Damascus in the late 19th century after he was dismissed for protecting the Hajj pilgrims. The troops from Hama to occupy Damascus refused to fight because they were not paid their regular wage and they did not want to challenge the Ottoman government. The Kurdish units were assigned to Damascus by Al-Jazzar. The Jarrar sheikhs of Sanur were again unable to be ousted by Al-Jazzar.The illness that kept Al-Jazzar inactive was caused by a tertian fever.
