Middle Eastern monarch (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

shah

(Other definitions for shah that I've seen before include "King of Persia" , "Former Iranian leader" , "Former Persian ruler" , "Former ruler of Persia" , "Emperor of Iran" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal, The Guardian and the USA Today.
