Sharif of “Lawrence of Arabia” crossword clue
13 Across · WSJ Crossword, July 3, 2026 · 4 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Sharif of “Lawrence of Arabia”” is OMAR. It appears as 13 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of July 3, 2026, a Friday puzzle titled “Shades of Difference” by Mike Shenk, and it fills 4 squares running left to right from row 2, column 1 of the 15×15 grid.
The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with O and ends with R, and contains 2 vowels and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Friday puzzles are the Journal’s contest crosswords with a hidden meta answer, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
