Regarding the need for an image, I've always just where in the movie Omar is supposed to appear? - Kooshmeister

I'm also confused about the appearance of Omar in the film. I could have sworn Omar is the mystic who interprets the glyphs on the headpiece. Sallah says that they are going to Omar's tomorrow, and that man's house is where they go. How do we know it's his brother in law? —Unsigned comment by 65.5.153.94 (talk • contribs).
- They're two seperate characters with two different actors credited. Sallah says he knows a man in the first Cairo scene then after the Marhala Bar he tells Indy that they'll take the children home first then see the "old man". Vetinari(Appointment) 01:20, January 14, 2010 (UTC)

Is Omar the car-owning brother-in-law?[]
In Last Crusade, Sallah mentions that the car is his brother-in-law's, but is there any source that says that this refers to Omar, and not another brother-in-law of Sallah's? Given his own family size, it seems likely that he might have more than one brother-in-law -- and one possibly living closer to Iskenderun than Omar in Cairo. Then again, once he got the message from Brody to meet him, Sallah could have borrowed the car, and drove it all the way up to Iskenderun. Jawajames (talk) 21:46, March 2, 2014 (UTC)
- The Raiders Sourcebook (which is where Sallah and Omar's family tie is mentioned) doesn't directly state that the garage owner is the brother-in-law mentioned in Last Crusade but it is implied through his being uncomfortable with in-laws borrowing his stuff. Sallah definitely has more than one brother-in-law as Prince Farqhuar (Philosopher's Stone) is one, as is the unnamed black marketeer in Temple of the Forbidden Eye's letters.
