Rasmoniet RSI was sired by the tall Nazeer son, *Rashad Ibn Nazeer, and out of the great mare Bint Moniet El Nefous, making Rasmoniet RSI double Nazeer, and a full brother to Bint Bint Moniet.

Rashad Ibn Nazeer (Nazeer x Yashmak by Sheikh El Arab) was foaled in Egypt in 1955. He was chosen for the late Richard Pritzlaff (owner of Rancho San Ignacio in Sapello/New Mexico) by General Tibor von Pettkoe-Szandtner, the head of El Zahraa at that time, because Nazeer was his favorite stallion, a preference which was shared by Richard Pritzlaff. *Rashad Ibn Nazeer was 15 hands and 2½ inches in height, fine-boned with elegant action and a dry head. He was not a typical representative of the Nazeer blood simply because he wasn't a "pretty" horse. The breeders who saw Rashad were impressed by his cat-like movements and his overall elegance. He was indeed a "beautiful athlete". Richard Pritzlaff, a skilful rider, praised Rashad's ability to sire foals with "excellent withers, sloping shoulder, good legs and a particularly fine neck and throat latch." For Pritzlaff, Rashad was an efficient and dependable breeding animal - a stallion that could be depended upon to pass on his performance ability, his action, and most of all, his friendly disposition. He was Pritzlaff's friend and personal mount. "Colonel Handler (the head of the Spanish Riding School in Vienna) spent several summer vacations at my ranch and trained Rashad and me," he said. "Colonel Handler was astonished how quickly Rashad learned the dressage movements and how elegantly and willingly he performed, and he was impressed on later visits to see how Rashad remembered what he had been taught and how he enjoyed performing. Rashad learned a creditable Piaffe in about ten lessons. Some horses require almost a year to accomplish the same degree in performance.

Nabiel+/ was a US National Champion Futurity Stallion; Two time National Top Ten Stallion; Most Classic Arabian; Legion of Honor; Winner of 30+ Class A Championships. Nabiel+/ was for some time before his passing the leading living Egyptian sire of champions, and he is now proving an excellent broodmare sire. Nabiel+/ was by *Sakr+++(a son of *Sultann)
