Abstract
Objectives: The study aimed to shed light on the Ottoman-British rivalry in the Arab Gulf region between 1840-1872, an important period of transformation in the political history of the Arabian Gulf, which contained many frictions between the Ottoman Empire and Britain, which oscillated between the tides.
 Methods: Ottoman documents, deposited in the Ottoman archive of the Presidency of the Republic of Turkey in Istanbul, were adopted as a source of study and analyzed using the historical research method.
 Results: The results of the study indicated that the Ottoman Empire's multiple problems during that period prevented it from effectively controlling the Arabian Gulf region, while Britain devoted all its efforts to strengthening its influence in the Arabian Gulf and combating Ottoman rule in it, and multiplied its tricks to achieve this, such as provoking sedition and unrest in the various Gulf regions under Ottoman sovereignty,
 Conclusions: A large number of Arab studies on the Arabian Gulf, which rely on Ottoman and local sources; to confront the fallacies issued by Western sources, especially English, about the history of the Arabian Gulf region, which, are natural and reflect the direction of English policies.
