History

The Al Maktoum family descends from the Al Bu Falasah (now known as Al-Falasi) section of the Bani Yas, a tribal federation that has been the dominant power throughout most of what is now the United Arab Emirates.[1] In 1833, a large group of the Al Bu Falasah section of the Bani Yas seceded to Dubai during the pearling season, under the leadership of Maktoum bin Butti bin Sohal, escaping the violence of Sheikh Khalifah of Abu Dhabi. Dubai was readily given up to them by its wali. The following autumn, the bulk of their relatives joined them and virtually all of the Al Bu Falasah were domiciled in Dubai from then on.[2]

Sheikh Maktoum bin Hasher Al Maktoum (Ruler from 1894 to 1906) convinced merchants from Lingeh in Iran to stay in the city by assuring zero taxation.[3] A more modern cosmopolitan city as well as a business friendly orientation was later established, which is what Dubai is now known for.[4] By the 1930s, the population of Dubai had nearly reached 20,000, a quarter of whom were expatriates.

In the 1950s, the Dubai Creek began to silt up. The late Ruler of Dubai, Sheikh Rashid bin Saeed Al Maktoum, commissioned the dredging of the waterway; resulting in an increased volume of cargo handling in Dubai, reinforcing Dubai's position as a re-export and trading hub.[5]
