The Nablus Sanjak (Arabic: سنجق نابلس; Turkish: Nablus Sancağı) was an administrative area that existed throughout Ottoman rule in the Levant (1517–1917). It was administratively part of the Damascus Eyalet until 1864 when it became part of Syria Vilayet and then the Beirut Vilayet in 1888.

History

Early Ottoman rule

Palestine with the Hauran and the adjacent districts, William Hughes 1843

In the 1596- daftar, the Sanjak of Nablus contained the following subdivisions and villages/towns:

Nahiya Jabal Sami

Nahiya Jabal Qubal

Nahiya Qaqun

Nahiya Bani Sa'b

Later Ottoman rule

In the 19th century, it consisted of nearly 113 towns and villages, in addition to the city of Nablus. From the 17th to the early 20th century it maintained its autonomy of Ottoman rule, mostly due to the mountainous terrain and Nablus's strategic location between Mount Ebal and Mount Gerizim. The rulers of the district composed of several Arab families, some originating from northern Syrian cities, some from Balqa and others were indigenous to Nablus. The primary noble families were the Tuqan, Jarrar, Abd al-Hadi, Jayyusi, Nimr, Rayyan, Qasim, At'ut, al-Hajj Muhammad, Ghazi and Jaradat.[18]

On Major R Huber's 1899 map of the Ottoman Empire, Sandjak Nablouz comprised four cazas ("subdistricts"): Nablouz; Djénin; Beni Saâb with the centre in Toul Karem; and Djemaïn with the centre in Akrabé. The four cazas were further subdivided into nine nahiés, totalling 58 villages.

The District of Nablus was economically active in growing olives which they used to produce olive oil, olive wood baskets and Nabulsi soap. Cotton was also a major cash crop. Most economic activity was based in Nablus, however the surrounding towns and villages supplied the crude product. The ruling families completely controlled all production soap and olive oil and the exporting of cotton, while the peasantry served as the farmers, laborers and were forced to pay taxes to the families. In return, the ruling families protected the villages and met municipal needs.[18]

During the British Mandate, the Nablus District consisted of all of the present-day Nablus Governorate, southern portions of the Qalqilya Governorate, the entire Tubas Governorate, northern portions of the Salfit Governorate and the northern Jericho Governorate.
