EAO III 42; IOHB 77; ABSB
Also known as Rabeeaa. Bred by Inshass Stud of King Farouk, Egypt. Pedigree Note:
Three horses are shown in the Inshass Original Herd Book as sired by Besheer (variant spellings Beshir/Bisheir/Bishir/Bashier/Bashir, etc.) with no further information. The Inshass Stud had two stallions named \\\\\\\\Besheer.\\\\\\\\ They were both chestnut, foaled in 1935 and 1936 respectively.
The first was bred at Inshass and is shown in the IOHB as a foal under his dam\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s entry, as a 3/27/36 chestnut stallion by El Zafir (INS) out of Thouraya (INS). Since Beshier has no entry of his own in the IOHB, no foals are shown as sired by him in that herd book. DataSource, of the Arabian Horse Association, currently shows this Beshier as the sire of the three 1951 foals by \\\\\\\\Besheer\\\\\\\\ in IOHB.
The second, normally called Besheir El Ashkar, was a gift to Inshass from Basharat Bey of Jordan along with Badria (INS) and another mare. Besheir El Ashkar has his own entry in the IOHB, which shows him as a chestnut stallion foaled 3/26/35 and received as a gift 3/26/48. The use of the received date as the foaling date was standard. Only one foal is shown in the IOHB as by \\\\\\\\Basheer El Ashkar\\\\\\\\: the stallion Badr (INS) out of Badria (INS). [See Besheir El Ashkar (INS)]
Of the three horses shown as sired by \\\\\\\\Besheer,\\\\\\\\ two-the mares Mahmouda (INS) and Rabiaa (INS)-have descendants in the USA which are eligible for the Al Khamsa Roster. Pedigrees for these two mares in various stud books have shown alternatively one stallion or the other as sire. Al Khamsa, Inc. considers it more likely that the Inshass Stud would have used a stallion within two years of receipt than that Inshass would have kept a stallion for 15 years without use on an individual entry in the herd book.
However, both could be by either stallion or both stallions could be represented. These two mares and their otherwise eligible descendants are included in this volume with a footnote to this reference by the name of both mares and all descendants.
While Rabiaa (INS)\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s Ancestral Elements are a combination of Inshass and Egypt I, the actual percentage of each Ancestral Element depends on which stallion is the sire. In the pedigree of Rabiaa (INS) and all of her descendants, this is shown by an Ancestral Element \\\\\\\\Inshass or Egypt I\\\\\\\\. If Besheir El Ashkar (INS) is the sire, the \\\\\\\\Inshass or Egypt I\\\\\\\\ percentage contributes to the Inshass Ancestral Element. If Besheir (INS) is the sire, the \\\\\\\\Inshass or Egypt I\\\\\\\\ percentage contributes to the Egypt I Ancestral Element percentage.
