Small groups of insurgents still refused to lay their weapons, including Shibli in Mount Hermon and sheikh Husain Abu Asaf in Lajat.[1] Shibli eventually fled to Baalbek, but forced into hiding, he finally surrendered to the Egyptians.[1] When Shibli met Ibrahim Pasha, he proposed his services as an irregular, and was accepted into Egyptian service.[1] Shibli was later sent out of the country, appointed to Sinar.[1] Apparently, Shibli was still in service of Ibrahim by late 1840, when Egyptians began evacuating Syria and Lebanon.[1] The last 100 Druze rebels in Lajat were joined by another 400 Druze insurgents by 1839, and were reportedly devastated a village near Hasbaya.[1] The dominance of Ibrahim Pasha over Ottoman Syria diminished with the 1840 agreement, which was signed during the Second Egyptian-Ottoman War (1839-1841).
