This research aims to study and analyze Jabir bin Abdullah Al-Harashi’s role as a man of the State, during the period of Sharif Hassan bin Ajlan.

Although the period he spent in this role was short, i.e.

ten years, he contributed a lot in the reconstruction of Jeddah port, organizing the tax, both collection and disbursement, and control the transactions of customs, and business dealings.

In fact, Sharif Hassan gave him broad powers to achieve the prosperity of Jeddah port.

This was actually one of the most important objectives of the Sharif of Makkah.

This active role, along with the management and organization of financial issues, allows the Sharif to depend on Jabir in some military tasks.

The improvements Jeddah port underwent made it an international port for world trades, including goods from the Far East.

However, there were several issues that led to conflict and clash between the Sharif and Jabir.

As a result, Jabir was jailed and released several times.

Even though the Sharif forgave Jabir, and even appointed him in Jeddah port, Jabir economic activities were not as before.

The Sharif appointed other people to run the port; there arouse several problems between these people, and Jabir was accused of supporting one of them, which ended up with hanging him in816AH / 1413 Al.
