Middle Eastern ruler (4)

I believe the answer is:

emir

'middle eastern ruler' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for emir that I've seen before include "Ruler in the Middle East and mire" , "Islamic title" , "Leading role" , "Title of various Muslim rulers" , "Middle Eastern ruler" .)

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