Sheikh Said bin Hamad took over from his long-lived and strong father Hamad Al Sharqi, who had fought all his life for independence for Fujairah from Sharjah and for British recognition of Fujairah as a Trucial State in its own right. That dream would come true for his younger brother, Mohammed bin Hamad, who acceded in 1938 or 1939 on Saif's death.{{Cite book|title=From Trucial States to United Arab Emirates : a society in transition|last=Heard-Bey|first=Frauke|date=2005|publisher=Motivate|isbn=1860631673|location=London|pages=441|oclc=64689681}}
