Rakan bin Falah bin Mani’ bin Hathleen Al-Ajmi (c. 1814–1892), also known as Abu Falah, was a prince, poet, warrior, and leader of the Ajman tribe. His father, Falah bin Hethlin, was the sheikh. Upon the death of his father in 1845, the sheikhdom moved to Rakan's uncle Hizam. When he abdicated due to old age in 1859, Rakan became the sheikh of the Ajman tribe.[1][2][3][4] Rakan was imprisoned in the city of Niš in Serbia while it was affiliated with the Ottoman Empire during the Serbian–Ottoman Wars (1876–1878), and he participated in a battle between the Serbs and the Ottomans during his imprisonment.[5][4]
