Isa bin Salman Al Khalifa (1933–1999) was the 1st emir of Bahrain from 1961 until his death. Born in Jasra, he became emir upon the death of his father, Salman ibn Hamad. During his 38 years as Emir, the economic transformation of Bahrain into a modern nation and a key financial center in the Persian Gulf area took place. Nevertheless, critics note that he also dissolved Parliament, giving absolute power to the royal family.

The traditional men's headwear in some Middle Eastern areas consists of three components: a knitted skull-cap known as the "keffiyeh," (also referred to as a ghutrah, shemagh, or ḥaṭṭah) a large cotton headscarf, typically plain white or with a red-and-white checkered pattern, called the "ghutra," and a black cord named the "agal," which secures the ghutra in place.

Al Teelah is a multiplayer game utilizing glass marbles of varying sizes. It accommodates 2 to 10 players, with the initial player known as Awwal and the second as Akho Alawwal, or the first player's brother. The player preceding the second-to-last is named Akho Toosh, while the final player is referred to as Toosh. This challenging game requires focus and cunning to secure victory. Played on a level surface with shallow holes akin to the size of a coffee cup, participants aim to flick opponents' marbles out of bounds. Teelah matches typically occur between the Asr and Maghrib prayer times, roughly 1-2 hours before sunset.
