In the mid-eighteenth century, Banu Ka'b had a strong navy, and sometimes attacked British ships, and fought either for or against the Ottomans and Persians.[3] In 1812, the Emirate of Muhammara emerged as an autonomous emirate under Banu Ka'b.[5] Banu Ka'b had their tribe flag as a sometimes yellow or red flag with tribe and branch sayings.[3]
They also had a skirmish with the naval force of Kuwait called Al Riqqa. Sheikh Barakat of Banu Ka'b asked for the hand of Kuwait sheikh's daughter in marriage and the sheikh refused, that infuriated Sheikh Barakat and caused him to attack Kuwait however his ships got stuck in the sand because of the shallow water. In this skirmish no one died however the Kuwaitis technically won because they salvaged what they could from Banu Ka'bs stuck ships. Sheikh Barakat tried to muster more men to attack Kuwait but the people killed him for his incompetence and for his willingness to risk the lives of his tribesmen for something trivial.[citation needed]
