Poor thread.Creation of Saudi Arabia a betrayal to Islam By Sheikh Imran Hosein
NOTHING BUT RAW HARD TRUTH.
How so? I didn't watch the video tbh but the Saudis were part and parcel in overthrowing the CaliphatePoor thread.
How? As If Imran Khan is knowlegdeable.How so? I didn't watch the video tbh but the Saudis were part and parcel in overthrowing the Caliphate
It isn't Imran Khan making things up. Saudis allying with the British and launching revolts against the Ottomans is treacherous to the CaliphHow? As If Imran Khan is knowlegdeable.
Ah it's really long. I wrote up an essay on the Anglo-French rivalry post WW1 and the Anglo-American rivalry post WW2 in the Middle East a year ago. I'll keep it short:How so? I didn't watch the video tbh but the Saudis were part and parcel in overthrowing the Caliphate
This is a btec sufi/paki take .In short, it's a lot more complicated than "the Al Saud were in cahoots with the British and they brought down the Ottoman empire".
The Ottomans had to deal with the Saudis rebelling for decades before they finally got their British support and statehood. They viewed the Caliph as illegitimate so they found it justifiable. The first fight was the Wahhabi war in like the 1810s. They even captured Mecca and Medina before they eventually lostAh it's really long. I wrote up an essay on the Anglo-French rivalry post WW1 and the Anglo-American rivalry post WW2 a year ago. I'll keep it short:
> The Hashemites of Hijaz wanted British support support against the Ottomans.
> British governor of Egypt told em jog on. Good relations with the Turks was necessary; the Bosphorus strait that passes through Istanbul was the Russian empire's Achilles heel.
> Turks back the Germans in WW1.
> In response the Brits back several Ayrab factions; notably the Hashemites and the Saud.
> Saud attacks the British protectorate of Kuwait (a bit hazy on this)
> Brits are cornered and have no choice but to recognise Al Saud's sovereignty over the Najd
> Anyways the two factions in the peninsula - Hashemites and the Saud, end up clashing
> Saud comes on top and annexes the Hijaz
> Then the Brits airlifted the Hashemite King of Hijaz to Cyprus.
> The end.
The Al Saud fella was a sneaky semite; the Brits favoured the Hashemite but with tact and brute force the Saud came on top.
Yeah they rebelled against the Ottomans in the late 1700s/early 1800s. But let's be honest that's got nothing to do with the Brits.The Ottomans had to deal with the Saudis rebelling for decades before they finally got their British support and statehood.

I mean the Saudis are usurpers if anything. Some people booty clap for them as legitimate rulers of Arabia but they aren'tYeah they rebelled against the Ottomans in the late 1700s/early 1800s. But let's be honest that's got nothing to do with the Brits.
Legitimacy is a grey area imo. It's subjective.I mean the Saudis are usurpers if anything. Some people booty clap for them as legitimate rulers of Arabia but they aren't
I would rather see Banu Hashim rule Arabia than some dusty Najdis. This Saudi family was instrumental in the destruction of the Ottoman Caliphate but not necessarily key in the defeat of the Empire. Separate Mecca and Medina from a Caliph and their legitimacy will plummetLegitimacy is a grey area imo. It's subjective.

The Ottoman empire wasn't really a thing in the 19th century tbh. Brits only kept around because of the Bosphorus; their demise was inevitable.I would rather see Banu Hashim rule Arabia than some dusty Najdis.
