Al Kharid (pronounced "Al-car-id"[1]) is a city in the north part of the Kharidian Desert. It is the only desert city open to non-members and players in the city do not suffer from the desert effect.
Al Kharid is ruled by the Emir, although the vast majority of the work has been taken over by Chancellor Hassan since the Emir's son was kidnapped. The city is independent from both Misthalin, or any government in the Kharidian desert. Al Kharid was built in the last years of the Fourth Age, by settlers from Misthalin crossing the newly-constructed bridge over the River Lum.
This city is particularly useful to power miners because of the nearby Al Kharid Mine, which contains tin, copper, iron, silver, gold, coal, mithril and adamant ores.

Players can find a number of non-player characters in Al Kharid.
Al Kharid contains the closest bank to a range and furnace in non-members RuneScape, as well as two reasonably close net and bait Fishing spots. Al Kharid also plays home to a tanner named Ellis.
The Al Kharid palace is the residence of The Emir and the seat of government for the emirate of Al Kharid. Hassan, the Emir's chancellor, is present in the palace's throne room and features in the Prince Ali Rescue quest. Osman, the emirate's spymaster, is found just outside the palace along the eastern section of the northern hedge. He features in the Prince Ali Rescue and Contact! quests and will also given Thieving experience in exchange for Sq'irk juice obtained in the Sorceress's Garden minigame.
Many Al Kharid warriors are in the palace and can be trained on and pickpocketed.
Al Kharid's bank is to the south-west of the city (See banks). The bank is populated largely by craftsmen, smiths and chefs due to the proximity of the tanner, range and furnace to the bank. In the free worlds, the bank is often crowded with players buying and selling cowhides, but it also can get crowded in members worlds too.
Zeke's Superior Scimitar shop is located to the north of the Al Kharid palace.
The store sells the following items:
Players are also able to ask about the Dragon scimitar, however Zeke will reply by making several puns relating to the Monkey Madness quest, which is required for players to be able to wield a dragon scimitar.
Dommik's Crafting Store is located to the north-east of the Al Kharid palace.
The store sells the following free-to-play items:

The Kebab shop is located directly north of the bank, in the house with a range. Players may purchase a kebab from Karim, the kebab salesman, for 1 coin each.
The Gem trader 
is located to the north of the Al Kharid township and to the south-east of the Lumbridge gate.
The trader sells the following items (prices may change and are only valid when there is one gem in stock):
The silk trader, 
located to the north of the Al Kharid palace, provides a quick and simple method for newer members to gain money quickly. If the player is prepared to click through a lengthy dialogue, they can buy silk cheaply (3 coins) which may then be sold for a profit at any general store excluding the general store in Al Kharid. (Note: It is possible for players to lower the purchase price of the silk by refusing the original offer by the silk trader and instead settling for a price of 2 coins).
Ali Morisanne is found east of the gem trader to the north-east of the city near the blue star quest icon 
. He sells various items, and once The Feud is completed, he will open various other shops if you set up merchanting opportunities for him.
Talk to him (there is no Trade option) and select the "Ya, I'll get to it soon." option. When he asks "...Unless you want to make a small purchase from me first?", select Ok.
See Rogue Trader.
Faruq 
sells tools which are useful for playing games with a clan. He is located in northern Al Kharid.
The Sorceress's Garden is found in the south-east of Al Kharid.
The Al Kharid Mine is also known as the Scorpion Mine, due to the abundance of these pests. This is a fairly good mine for most materials as it has everything except clay, blurite, daeyalt, elemental, runite, and lunar but is usually quite busy. Coal is the most sought after ore here. Players will try to mine it before the other players do so.
The Duel Arena is found north-east of Al Kharid. It can be more quickly accessed with a Ring of duelling.
