Biography

When he refused to give his daughter Maimuna to El Akir, the Emir burned Haroun's house, killed his wife and son and stole Maimuna. Haroun, left only with his other daughter Safiya, swore revenge on El Akir. He met the recently escaped Barbara Wright, told her his story, and introduced her to Safiya. When Barbara was recaptured, he broke into El Akir's palace, stabbed and killed the Emir, freed Barbara, and was reunited with his daughter. (DW: The Crusade)
