Basbar Al-Sukri, originally from the Ja'ali tribe, was a follower of Al-Tayyar bin Sheikh Abd Al-Rahman. He was born into a religious family and memorized the Quran under Madani bin Nouri. He studied the Quran in Al-Qabuz, under the trees that are still there today. His students numbered a thousand. He followed the path of the people under Sheikh Sharaf Al-Din, a righteous man. Many righteous men studied under him, including the two sons of Biri, Hamid Al-Sardi, Sheikh Abdullah, Abara, the sons of Al-Haj Eid, and a large group. He was among the great saints of God Almighty, who have no fear nor shall they grieve. He fasted all his life and broke his fast every night with his wife, who would bring him a porridge. He would dip his fingers in it, suck them, and chew them. Once, a guest gave him two dates, and the man ate them. The guest said to him, "Shusha, like a camel." She replied, "Eat." Then he said to her, "Shusha, it has not been opened." She told him he was waiting for dinner, so she prepared it for him. Sheikh Hassan said that Sheikh Basbar held onto his path, and the reason for this was that when Sheikh Hassan came to Al-Abwab, he came to visit him. His son, Al-Abd Al-Qadir, told him to lengthen the prayer mat and tell them to go. The people cried out, and he woke up and found them. He held onto his path, meaning on his chest, and God willed it. He left him a blue robe and a decorated garment. He stayed in Al-Makareh with Abdu Birru, the ancestor of the Al-Barnab family, the royal family.

Then a great light came out of his mouth, and he said, "I have a mountain, I dug it with your hand. You have no strength." Sheikh Muhammad bin Hadi, the author of famous works, composed a long elegy for Basbar, mentioning that he was one of his students. He said, "Oh, Basbar, my sheikh of recitation and my means to the eloquent Quran." He said, "You are the reason, Basbar." Basbar married a woman from the Hamdi tribe. It is said that the uncle of Abu Hamdi married her. He was a neighbor of Sheikh Abd Al-Razzaq Abu Qurun. He came to him and said, "Why are you looking at me?" He replied, "Do not approach the sea, people are drowning." It is said that this man did not approach the sea for sixty years. His wife gave birth, and for the Aqiqah, as soon as he put his foot in the sea, a crocodile snatched him and bit him until he died. Then he threw him on the seashore. Basbar, under the trees, cried out, "He carried him, he carried him for my son." And for Yumand, a young boy who had a mark. His sons Al-Badawi, Abd Al-Qadir, and Madani Abu Qurun were righteous, virtuous, and pleased with God. He was jealous. His neighbor, Sheikh Ali bin Biri, brought him to visit him.
