He held a party on 16 November 1951 where Prince Mishari, aged nineteen, was among the guests. Ousman refused to pour Mishari another drink, since he had already reached his maximum limit. Mishari left, and came back shortly carrying a gun and fired into the Ousman's home. His wife, Dorothy Ousman, was shielded by her husband, and Ousman was shot dead by Prince Mishari. Ousman was buried next day in Jeddah's non-Muslim cemetery. In 1952, King Abdulaziz imposed a total ban on alcohol in his kingdom.

Mishari was released during the reign of
