Persian monarch (4)

I believe the answer is:

shah

'persian monarch' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

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

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate, the Universal, the USA Today, the New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, the Newsday.com, The Sun and The Times.
