Middle Eastern state, capital Muscat (4)

I believe the answer is:

oman

(Other definitions for oman that I've seen before include "Sultanate in southwest Asia" , "Nation" , "Sultanate, capital Muscat" , "Sultanate on the south-east coast of the Arabian Peninsula" , "Arabian country, capital Muscat" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
