This place does not seem to exist. The map points to a place called Arabic: شياء, romanized: šyā and I can't find any place with a similar spelling on CityPopulation which has a complete database for Oman sourced from the Omani institute of statistics.

Delete. Per nom, this place seems to be non-existent. I searching Google Maps, and found a location with the exact name located south-east of Muscat. Although, Google labels that place as a "tourist attraction", there weren't any villages nearby called by that name. 🛧Midori No Sora♪🛪 ( ☁＝☁＝✈) 01:34, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There is a Daghmar that is a coastal village not too far from Sur, but at a completely different location and jurisdiction - the map points to Shiya. Given the transliterations from Arabic to English, I thin Daghmar is a valid article - it has around 4,000 people according to Citypopulation.de - but maybe needs to be created from scratch.
