Biography

Karami descended from one of the most prominent Sunni Muslim families in Lebanon.[2] Members of his family traditionally held the position of mufti of Tripoli. Abdul Hamid Karami became mufti of Tripoli,[3] but was removed by the French authorities. He was a leader of the movement to have Lebanon become an independent country, a goal which was achieved by 1943.[4] In 1944, Karami survived an assassination attempt, which was due to a local rivalry in Tripoli.[3] Karami served as prime minister and finance minister of Lebanon for a brief period from 10 January 1945 to 20 August 1945.[5] He also held the post of defense minister for that time.[6]

His sons, Rashid Karami and Omar Karami were also important Lebanese politicians who served as prime ministers and leading politicians of Lebanon.[7] Karami died on 3 November 1950.[4][8]

Controversy

In June 1935, Karami killed Abdul Majid Muqaddam, another prominent Tripoli native, since Muqaddam had beaten him with a stick and knocked off his turban.[3] However, Karami was acquitted due to his claim of self-defense.[3] Karami's lawyer was future president Bishara Khoury.[1][3]
