Khalid Bin Muhammad Al Saud
Khalid bin Muhammad Al Saud (1904 – March 1938) was a member of the Saudi royal family. He was the eldest son of Muhammad bin Abdul Rahman who was the half-brother of King Abdulaziz. Biography Khalid was born in 1904 and was the eldest son of Muhammad bin Abdul Rahman. His grandfather, Abdul Rahman bin Faisal bin Turki, was the former short-term Emir of Nejd, and his uncle was the ruling Emir Abdulaziz. Khalid participated in the battles led by Abdulaziz which resulted in the formation of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. However, later on, particularly following the capture of Hejaz and Abdulaziz's proclamation as King of Hejaz and Nejd, Khalid and Muhammad had difficult relations with Abdulaziz. It is alleged that Khalid twice attempted to assassinate King Abdulaziz's eldest son and designated heir, Prince Saud, in 1927 and in 1930 in order to become king himself. Khalid and his father did not support the elimination of the Ikhwan in 1929. In May 1933 when Prince Saud was anno ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
House Of Saud
The House of Saud ( ar, آل سُعُود, ʾĀl Suʿūd ) is the ruling royal family of Saudi Arabia. It is composed of the descendants of Muhammad bin Saud, founder of the Emirate of Diriyah, known as the First Saudi state (1727–1818), and his brothers, though the ruling faction of the family is primarily led by the descendants of Abdulaziz bin Abdul Rahman, the modern founder of Saudi Arabia. The most influential position of the royal family is the King of Saudi Arabia, an absolute monarch. The family in total is estimated to comprise some 15,000 members; however, the majority of power, influence and wealth is possessed by a group of about 2,000 of them. Some estimates of the royal family's wealth measure their net worth at $1.4 trillion. This figure includes the market capitalization of Saudi Aramco, the state oil and gas company, and its vast assets in fossil fuel reserves.

Umm Al-Qura (newspaper)
''Umm Al-Qura'' (Arabic: أُم القُرى, ''The Mother of Villages'') was the first Arabic language Saudi Arabian daily newspaper based in Mecca, and the official gazette of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The paper has been in circulation since 1924. History and profile ''Umm Al-Qura'' was established by Ibn Saud, the Kingdom’s founder, and the first issue was published on 12 December 1924. In fact, the paper was a successor of ''Al Qibla'' which was the official gazette of the Kingdom of Hejaz. One of the reasons behind the establishment of ''Umm Al-Qura'' was the harsh criticisms of an Egyptian newspaper, '' Al Muqattam'', against Ibn Saud. He started the paper to counterweigh this negative propaganda of ''Al Muqattam'' through the paper. ''Umm Al-Qura'' was initially a weekly newspaper issued in four hand-printed pages before it had turned into a government gazette – an announcer of royal decrees and other state-related news. Shortly after its start ''Umm Al-Qura'' freq ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Ikhwan
The Ikhwan ( ar, الإخوان, al-ʾIkhwān, The Brethren), commonly known as Ikhwan min ta'a Allah ( ar, إخوان من أطاع الله), was a traditionalist religious militia made up of traditionally nomadic tribesmen which formed a significant military force of the ruler Ibn Saud and played an important role in establishing him as ruler of most of the Arabian Peninsula in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The Ikhwan first appeared around 1902. They were the product of clergy who aimed to break up the Bedouin tribes and settle them around the wells and oases of the sedentary Arab populations, mainly those of the Najd, on the grounds that nomadic life was incompatible with the strict conformity of their interpretation of Islam. The newly Islamicized Bedouin would be converted from nomad raiders to soldiers for Islam. The cleric/teachers of the Ikhwan were dedicated to their idea of the purification and the unification of Islam, and some of the newly converted Ikhwan rebelled agai ...
