ABOUT THIS BOOK:

 This book has been a series of articles published between Oct., 20th, to Dec., 12th, 2017, to provide our views regarding the Saudi crown-prince,  M. Ibn Salman, whose father, king Salman, has made the de facto ruler of the Saudi kingdom, now on the verge of collapse because of Ibn Salman. We tackle the so-called 'moderate' Islam of the crown-prince, the imminent collapse of the kingdom, the analytical vision of this collapse and its results, and then the required reform to avoid bloodshed.

INTRODUCTION:

When Will the KSA Purify Itself from the Abomination of Wahabism?! An Introductory Article

 

1- We have come to the USA as a political asylee to flee religious persecution inflicted on our person in Egypt under the Mubarak regime; this persecution was incited and urged by the KSA, of course. Upon arriving to the USA, we have sent a copy (in Arabic) of the manuscript of our book titled "The Wahabi Opposition Movements in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in the Twentieth Century" (found in English on this link: http://www.ahl-alquran.com/arabic/book_main.php?main_id=85) via registered mail to the Saudi ambassador in Washington at the time, the prince Bandar Ibn Sultan, while enclosing a letter in which we have written that we call the KSA to reject the old pact with M. Ibn Abdul-Wahab (i.e., the founder of Wahabism) to turn the KSA into a constitutional monarchy without the Wahabi ideology; we urged the Saudi authorities to reject Wahabism in order to guarantee the safety of the state and the Saudi royal family members themselves, or else, the 21st century will witness the inevitable collapse of the Saudi regime if it sticks adamantly to Wahabism.      

2- The only reaction to our enclosed letter is what we have undergone inside the USA since 2002 until now; the Saudi lobby in Washington could NOT urge the American authorities to incarcerate our person as done by the Mubarak regime in Egypt, but this lobby has managed to drown our voice and to impose a media blackout on our VA-based IQC, Quranism website, and YouTube channel. Saudi hackers have destroyed our website, ahl-alquran.com, three times but we managed to restore it (see our article about those hackers, in English, on this link: http://www.ahl-alquran.com/English/show_article.php?main_id=15286). Quranism poses a veritable danger against the KSA, because Quranists wage an intellectual war of ideas against Wahabism from within Islam (i.e., the Quran itself) that proves that Islam has nothing to do with the Wahabi ideology, and our intellectual endeavors should serve to save the souls of millions of people in the USA, the West in general, and within the countries of the Muhammadans, as Wahabi bloodbaths and bloodshed committed falsely in the name of Islam would be prevented worldwide. The USA spends billions of US$ to protect its internal and external security, whereas our Quranist intellectual war of ideas will hardly cost the price of one apache helicopter. In fact, this Quranist intellectual war of ideas will be lucrative and bring profits when used within the production of TV shows, TV series, long/short movies, and documentary movies (see our two articles (in English) covering that topic on these links: http://www.ahl-alquran.com/English/show_article.php?main_id=14547http://www.ahl-alquran.com/English/show_article.php?main_id=15999). Many people within the political circles inside the USA have realized the vital importance of this Quranist intellectual war of ideas, and this is proved in the fact that  we have been appointed for a while as a visiting professor in one of the very important centers that provide decision-makers with information and knowledge and that we are being consulted (for free) to provide our pieces of advice and views. The Saudi lobby in Washington fears our person very much and it aborts any potential success that we would achieve. In fact this Saudi lobby has managed to close all gates/venues inside the USA before our person. Typically, a high-rank American official would be enthusiastic about the Quranist intellectual war of ideas, and he/she would contact us several times before this comes to a halt and they never contact our person again. Recently, a very high-rank official contacted us and then never repeated this contact, without giving reasons. At one point, Al-Hurra website and channel requested from us to write a weekly article in return for a very good remuneration, and after reaching an agreement with our person, Al-Hurra suddenly cancelled this agreement; this shows that the Saudi lobby is moving against our person and hinder our endeavors in a flagrant manner which is known to everyone, while those concerned authorities in Washington remain silent though they know about this.                 

3- Despite the above, we never despair or give up hope regarding reforming the KSA by making it reject Wahabism once and for all. When the late Saudi king Abdullah began to announce the intentions to introduce reform, especially reform of education inside the KSA, we felt encouraged at the time to write and urge him to adopt the reform project of the Saudi late thinker Mr. Nasser Al-Saeed, which we have talked about in our book about the Wahabi opposition movements inside the KSA. Soon enough, we have realized that such announced intentions were mere media coverage (as nothing has been done actually) to falsely improve the image of the KSA within the international arena. This has made us write an article, in English, about how it is impossible to reform the KSA (found on this link:  http://www.ahl-alquran.com/English/show_article.php?main_id=15488), and we have called the KSA as the axis of evil worldwide.     

4- One of the missions undertaken by Muslim reformist thinkers is to encourage any announced initiative of reform; we have praised the Egyptian President Al-Sisi in 2014 when he announced the intention to reform education (especially religious/Azharite education) in Egypt, but we have attacked him when it turned out that he committed crimes and therefore he is an enemy of God and we have disowned him (see our book titled "A Witness of the Earliest Months of The Presidential Term of The Egyptian President Al-Sisi" found in English on this link: http://www.ahl-alquran.com/arabic/book_main.php?main_id=77). The motive for any Muslim reformist thinkers to encourage any announced initiative of reform is that reformers are keen on stopping or preventing any bloodshed and they fear for the weak, oppressed ones on Earth who are victims of any armed struggles between tyrants and their foes. For instance, we have seen how the Saudi axis of evil and its struggle against non-Wahabis using ISIS terrorists and how the Saudi interference in the Levant, Iraq, and Yemen has caused  many bloodbaths that we hope to see the end of them one day.

5- Bloodbaths can be stopped only if the KSA would purify itself from the abomination of Wahabism; the Saudi Wahabism is behind the injustices committed against Shiites inside the KSA and Saudi wars waged against Shiites outside the KSA. The Saudi Wahabism is the cause of spreading the cursed Wahabi ideology in Egypt and the Cairo-based Al-Azhar institution and within the rest of the countries of the Muhammadans. Before the spread of Wahabism using Saudi money or the petrodollars, most Muhammadans were peaceful Sunnite Sufis, but most of them now have converted to Wahabism, the religion of terrorism and violence. Let us not forget the Wahabi KSA spread Wahabism inside the West in general: Europe, Canada, and the USA, corrupting Muslim youths there; instead of making Muslim communities in the West as a factor of reforming all Muslims/Muhammadans, the Wahabi youths of the West are turning into time bombs exploding in streets of the West cities. The Saudi Wahabism has impeded and hindered the democratic transition within the countries of the Muhammadans. In fact, the democratic transition has occurred without difficulties in Eastern European countries that were communist nations, whereas democracy is a taboo which is banned within the countries of the Muhammadans, because the alternative after ousting tyrants is NOT preachers of justice, religious freedom, human rights, and democracy, but Wahabi theocrats like the terrorist MB, ISIS, and Al-Qaeda, who are all the archenemies of justice, religious freedom, human rights, and democracy. In sum, bloodbaths can be stopped and prevented only if the KSA would get rid of the abomination called the Wahabi ideology.             

6- The KSA might spare itself from the eminent collapse only if it would reject Wahabism and all political burdens resulting from it; this way, the KSA would turn into a kingdom without an ideology, such as the kingdom of Jordan and the kingdom of Morocco. In fact, Jordan lives on the brink of many dangers, including the Arab-Israeli conflict and the fact that a high percentage of its population are Palestinians. Indeed, Jordan suffers from Palestinians, Israelis, Syrians, Iraqis, Saudis, and Egyptians. If Jordan were adopting the aggressive Wahabi ideology, it would have collapsed easily and promptly, to be occupied by Israel or any other countries. As for Morocco, it suffered many times in history (because of its geographical location) when the Muhammadans engaged into wars against the Europeans throughout the centuries, and the Moroccan kingdom never collapsed and was never occupied by the Ottomans; it remained independent, because Morocco never adopted any extremist Sunnite ideology like Wahabism. This is why both Jordan and Morocco never had any military coups or revolts of any type; in fact, both kingdoms are more liberal and open than most of the military presidential regimes inside the countries of the Muhammadans, where presidents have to embrace Wahabism in order not to be outdone or defeated by their Wahabi foes and their overt and secret organizations (e.g., the terrorist MB).          

7- The USSR was the second power worldwide, and its ideology used to spread in Europe and other continents, as a communists empire was formed within countries under the control of the USSR in Asia and Europe as well as Cuba, Vietnam, and North Korea. The USSR retained its ideology by imposing it on nations and surrounding them with the so-called iron-curtain. Modern means of communication and media penetrated this iron curtain and an intellectual war of ideas was waged against the communist ideology by the USA and the West. Thus, by reaching the minds of Soviet citizens, the USSR collapse without one bullet. This vital lesson has been learned now: any given country that is ruled by one ideology imposed on people will never go on existing in our modern era of the global village and open skies of communication and media revolution.   

8- Within the early years of the third, current Saudi state in the 1930s, Wahabi sheikhs stood against introducing modern invention (e.g., telegrams and motorcycles) inside the KSA. King Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud had convinced, with extreme difficulty, those Wahabi sheikhs that these modern inventions are not linked to Jinn or devils. Soon enough, the KSA has used modern inventions of communication and mass media to spread Wahabism in the West and in the countries of the Muhammadans. Besides, when the Wahabi epidemic spread, bloodbaths occurred in many regions, and social media networks and media worldwide tackled such news with analyses and discussions. This led to discussion of the Wahabi ideology itself, even inside the KSA. Although the Saudi regime blocks regularly many websites of enlightenment just as Modern Discussion (ahewar.net) and our Quranism website (www.ahl-alquran.com), the KSA is a leader in satellite channels and countless Wahabi websites used to impose Wahabism on Saudi citizens and to prevent any refutation or discussion of Wahabism. Yet, the rays of light infiltrate every location, even inside the KSA itself despite of the Saudi regime; Wahabism is being discussed and refuted openly now (to a certain extent) inside and outside the KSA. Ironically, when Wahabi sheikhs and clergymen have used modern media and cyberspace, they inadvertently have exposed their obscurantism, ignorance, extremism, immorality, fanaticism, and bigotry. This led to the fact that Wahabi sheikhs and clergymen are being ridiculed and satirized by many people now. Thus, spending billions of petrodollars to spread Wahabism in media and within cyberspace was in vain for the KSA. The KSA can no longer protect its Wahabi ideology against refutation, criticism, and discussion within cyberspace and media that link all people worldwide. Thus, the KSA can no longer impose full media blackout on calls for reform on all levels, including Quranism advocated and propagated within our website. When severe American reproach has drawn nearer to the KSA, though the USA protects the Saudi throne, some measures had to be taken by the KSA; e.g., the so-called moderation center (see our article in English about this topic on this link: http://www.ahl-alquran.com/English/show_article.php?main_id=16657) and another center to 'sift' and 'review' Sunnite Wahabi hadiths.                    

9- The greatest lesson to be learned is that the ideology-based USSR has collapsed when its communist ideology collapsed; likewise, the KSA will collapse when Wahabism collapses. We are never to forget that the Saudi state emerged and collapsed twice. Our modern era now in the 21st century is the ideal timing for the collapse of the third current KSA, and when it vanishes from the map of the world, no one is going to regret its disappearance or weep for it; the whole world will rejoice, in fact. Indeed, the Saudi Wahabism from 1745 A.D. until now caused the massacre of millions of people in the West and in the East. The abomination called Wahabism has hijacked the name of the great religion of Islam and tarnished its reputation! Real Islam (i.e., Quranism) has nothing to do with the religion called Sunnite Wahabism.  

10- We, Quranists, are keen on clearing the name of Islam as a religion with its faith tenets and sharia laws, and we are very eager to spread Islam in terms of behavior; i.e., peaceful demeanor and non-violence as well as stopping bloodshed inflicted on the weak, oppressed people on Earth, to whom our person and all Quranists worldwide belong. We personally are eager to forget the Saudi persecution inflicted on us and write to call the KSA to apply a comprehensive reform by purifying itself from the abomination of Wahabism so that the KSA is turned one day into a constitutional monarchy to save itself, citizens of Arabia, the Saudi royal family members, and the whole world from the evils of Wahabism.    

11- How is this ever going to happen? We provide the answer to this question in the next article. 

 

 

CHAPTER I: The KSA between Wahabism and Claims of 'Moderate' Islam

 

The KSA on Its Way to Deny Sunna Hadiths

 

Introduction:

  This is the most important decree issued in the KSA since the emergence of Al-Saud as rulers in 1745 A.D. and the unholy pact between M. Ibn Saud and M. Ibn Abdul-Wahab: the decree and initiative of king Salman of the KSA that we read in the news recently about establishing an institution to sift hadiths while aiming at excluding falsehoods and fabrications about Prophet Muhammad. The USA-based Al-Hurra Channel and website contacted our person to ask about our own view about this piece of news, and Al-Hurra website has mentioned only a very brief summary of our view and not all of our words. We write in this article our view extensively and in detail.       

 

Firstly: we are the first thinker, since 1982 A.D., to call for 'reviewing' hadiths of the so-called Sunna :

1- In the first of our books titled "Al-Sayed Al-Badawi between Fact and Myth" published in Cairo, Egypt, in 1982, we call for sifting and reviewing hadiths by using the Quran as the only criterion to exclude hadiths, as many of them urge the youth to resort to violence and terrorism. At this stage of our life and career as a thinker, we used to assume that one might believe in 'some' hadiths that never contradict the Quran, before delving into deeper reflection of the Quran to infer the Quranic fact that the Quran is the Only Discourse to believe in within Islam and that we are to reject all hadiths/narratives.   

2- We have attempted at first to sift and review hadiths Al-Bokhary book, and when our research yielded the result that this horrid book contradicts the Quran, we have declared this view in Al-Azhar University and within a Cairo-based Sunnite society called "The Call of Truth" in which we were a leading member in the 1980s. All Azharite and non-Azharite clergymen opposed our person and called us as an 'infidel'/'apostate' and a (Sunna-denier). Sunnites and Sufis inside and outside Al-Azhar University were united against our person, and we left the Sunnite society called "The Call of Truth" and we tendered our resignation as a professor at Al-Azhar University. Soon afterwards in 1987, we have been incarcerated for months, and inside our prison cell were some of our fellow Quranists. The Egyptian media and policemen have used the terms (Quranists) and (Sunna-deniers) to describe our person and our fellow Quranists. This severe persecution by the Mubarak regime was incited first blatantly and flagrantly by the KSA. We have reached the conclusion that as per the Quranic Truth, one is to believe ONLY in one discourse within Islam: God's Word: the Quran. In 1990, we have authored another seminal book titled "The Quran: Sufficient as a Source of Islamic Legislation" (found in English, on this link: http://www.ahl-alquran.com/arabic/book_main.php?main_id=92). Quranists in Egypt have suffered several arrest waves incited by the heavy Saudi influence on the Egyptian regime. This Saudi infiltration within, as well as control of, the Egyptian deep-state and Al-Azhar continues to be stronger than ever within the rule of the current Egyptian president; those Egyptian thinkers who have dared to criticize some hadiths have been imprisoned; e.g., Mr. Eslam Al-Beheiry (released after several months) and Mr. M. Abdullah Nasr who has not been released yet: see our two articles in English about him: http://www.ahl-alquran.com/English/show_article.php?main_id=16173 /http://www.ahl-alquran.com/English/show_article.php?main_id=17063) and see our subtitled video about him: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=81Ay74OgD4U). The KSA now formally declares the intention of 'sifting' and 'reviewing' the so-called Sunna hadiths.              

 

Secondly: if the KSA is truly serious and sincere about the intention of 'sifting' and 'reviewing' hadiths of its Wahabi Sunnite religion, the following must be done:

1- The KSA must formally apologize in public to those incarcerated because of its influence – we do not mean Quranists or our person; rather, we mean those Sunnite thinkers like Mr. Nasr and Mr. Al-Beheiry who desire to engage into 'sifting' and 'reviewing' the so-called Sunna hadiths to exclude some of them and adhere to the rest. The KSA must command the Egyptian president, who is submissive to the Saudi king, to release Mr. Nasr from prison and to apologize in public to the Egyptian thinker/researcher/lawyer (and former judge) Mr. Ahmed Abdou Maher who is engaged into intellectual jihad with his pen, his presence as a guest in talk-shows of Egyptian TV channels, and also in Egyptian courts as he demands from Al-Azhar to exclude hadiths of Al-Bokhary (and hadiths of his likes) from the Sunnite religion that Mr. Maher embraces and from the corrupt, obscurantist Azharite curricula.  

2- The KSA must immediately release the Saudi sheikh/thinker Dr. Hassan Farhan Al-Maliki from prison and apologize to him. In fact, we think that Dr. Al-Maliki is the best thinker now inside Arabia and he reminds us of the late Saudi rebel and thinker Mr. Nasser Al-Saeed.

3- We have tackled and analyzed the reformist vision of Mr. Nasser Al-Saeed that emerged 50 years ago, and how it remains valid and applicable to reform the KSA and to prevent its collapse, within our book (in English) titled "The Wahabi Opposition Movements in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in the Twentieth Century", found on this link: http://www.ahl-alquran.com/arabic/book_main.php?main_id=85

 

Thirdly: the problematic issue of 'sifting' and 'reviewing' hadiths in general:

1- We have refuted the notion (or rather the futile, useless endeavor) to sift and correct Al-Bokhary hadiths and repeated our call to reject all hadiths altogether in the article (in English) titled "The Poisonous Mission of 'Correcting' the Book of Al-Bokhary" (found on this link: http://www.ahl-alquran.com/English/show_article.php?main_id=16821). Indeed, it is of no use and of no avail to 'reform' the Sunnite religion by excluding some or most hadiths; it is better to reject the ma-made, fabricated, earthly Sunnite religion and to adhere to real Islam (i.e., Quranism). In fact, the Sunnite religion is false; a mere Taghut and devilish religion of Satan like the Shiite religion, Sufism, Judaism, Catholicism, Orthodox Christianity, Protestantism, Hinduism, Baha'ism, Buddhism, etc. All such religions are Taghut and call for polytheism. The Quran has descended from Heaven to purify human beings from such Taghut religions that propagate polytheism. Thus, real reform is NOT to exclude some or most hadiths, but to reject hadiths/Sunna altogether, and the same applies to hadiths of Sufis and Shiites as well. Thus, sifting and reviewing hadiths is none of our concern; Quranists reject hadiths of all types altogether. Hence, the real problem is in fake decrees or decisions by the KSA to aim at 'modifying' or 'changing' the forms of religious corruption instead of eradicating it along with excluding other falsehoods. The Wahabi Sunnite religion of Satan must vanish to make room for the True Monotheistic Religion of God: the Quranic Truth.                 

2- The laughter-inducing notion of 'correcting' or 'sifting'/'reviewing' hadiths is problematic because it is based on personal whims and desires. In fact, whims of clergymen in all eras caused the emergence of so many doctrines and sects. It is noteworthy that hadiths of al-Bokhary contradict one another even in the same page! We have proven this in our book titled "The Quran: Sufficient as a Source of Islamic Legislation" (found in English, on this link: http://www.ahl-alquran.com/arabic/book_main.php?main_id=92). Within many eras, the imams/clergy of earthly, man-made, fabricated religions have authored and concocted hadiths as per their whims and ascribed them falsely to Muhammad more than 200 years after his death. In fact, millions of hadiths were authored and concocted during the Second Abbasid Era by Sufis, Sunnites, and Shiites. Sunnite clergymen and scholars had to sift through hadiths to exclude Shiite ones and many of the scholars differed and contradicting one another (as per personal whims and desires) regarding criteria for keeping or excluding hadiths. Al-Dhahaby, the historian and scholar, asserted in his book that no two scholars agreed on how to exclude and include hadiths as '(in)correct' ones. Many scholars cast doubts on texts and series of narrators of many hadiths. Many scholars have tackled in their books the problem of fabricated hadiths, like Ibn Al-Jawzy (within the Second Abbasid Era) and Ibn Taymiyya, Al-Siyouti, and Ibn Al-Qayyim (within the Mameluke Era) as well as Al-Albany (1914-1999 A.D.). Such futile endeavors to 'sift' and 'review' hadiths did not bring any progress at all; likewise, the Saudi endeavors (even if done seriously) to 'sift' and 'review' hadiths will be of no use at all to anyone and a mere waste of time.      

 

Fourthly: the problematic issue of 'sifting' and 'reviewing' hadiths inside the KSA in particular:

1- It is funny that Wahabi scholars and clergymen (esp. Al-Sheikh family), who are being ridden and controlled by Saudi royal family members, and who have spent most of their lifetimes defending such hadiths and declaring deniers/rejecters of hadiths (within cyberspace, media, books, fatwas etc.) as 'infidels' and 'apostates', will have no problem at all to endorse the new stance of their real god/deity (i.e., the Saudi king) and they will find no qualms to eat their words and shamelessly applaud 'sifting' and 'reviewing' hadiths! 

2- The real problem is that if the KSA rejects hadiths of Al-Bokhary and his likes, the writings of M. Ibn Abdul-Wahab will lose their value and be rendered useless and the very ideological foundations of the first, second, and third, current Saudi state will vanish along with the Wahabi Sunnite 'legitimacy' of the existence of the KSA.

3- All Wahabi books of M. Ibn Abdul-Wahab and others must be refuted and rejected later on along with all Sunnite hadiths; such traditions form the ideological foundation of Wahabi terrorists: the MB, ISIS, Al-Qaeda, and their likes, as they embrace Sunnite fiqh and hadiths that incite violence, bloodshed, and terrorism. 

4- Would the KSA have the nerve to disown Al-Bokhary hadiths that incite violence, bloodshed, and terrorism? These hadiths include the one about fighting humanity till all people declare there is no God but Allah and Muhammad is His Prophet. Wahabism is based on the Ibn Hanbal extremist doctrine; would the KSA dare to reject the Ibn Hanbal doctrine scholars' hadith about massacring one-third of the 'subjects'/nations to 'reform' the other two-thirds?! Would the Saudi scholars of fiqh dare to criticize and refute fatwas of the Ibn Hanbal doctrine scholar Ibn Taymiyya, of the Mameluke Era, that allow murdering people for thousands of trivial reasons? We have discussed the bloody thought of Ibn Taymiyya in a book tackling the Wahabi MB-concocted 2012 constitution in Egypt under the MB president, ousted in 2013 within the glorious, great 30th of June revolt.

5- In sum, would the KSA dare to criticize Al-Bokhary deified by Wahabi scholars now? Let us remind readers that Saudis have called our person as Sunna-denier when we have attacked and refuted Al-Bokhary book. There is nothing called Sunna in real Islam; there are hadiths fabricated by so many people within the Sunnite religion, and when one rejects Sunna hadiths, one rejects the whole Sunnite religion altogether (with all of its traditions, sub-creeds, sub-sects, doctrines, books, hadiths, fiqh, etc.). Hence, would the KSA have the nerve to deny Sunna hadiths? Would Saudi scholars be deemed Sunna-deniers, the same accusation leveled at our person in the 1980s?  

6- The KSA has spread the epidemic called Wahabism worldwide along with terrorism, bloodshed, and bloodbaths. The KSA has established Wahabi universities inside and outside the KSA. The KSA fully controls the Cairo-based Al-Azhar and all of the so-called 'Islamic' centers and Sunnite mosques in the USA, EU, and the West countries in general. Would the KSA dare to reform Wahabi Sunnite curricula in such Wahabi institutions all over the world?   

7- A persistent question en passant: what would be the reaction of the head of Al-Azhar, who is typically submissive to the KSA, as he has done his best to persecute those who attempted to sift and review hadiths and fiqh inside the Azharite curricula on the one hand and the hadiths of the earthly, man-made Sunnite religion on the other hand?!  

 

Fifthly: the reason behind declaring such a decree by the KSA:

1- Within our book titled "The Wahabi Opposition Movements in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in the Twentieth Century" (found on this link: http://www.ahl-alquran.com/arabic/book_main.php?main_id=85), we assert that Wahabism provides sham/fake legitimacy to Wahabi tyrannical rulers and also to Wahabi theocracy-seeking rebels who claim they are more 'religious' and more 'Wahabi' than the current, existing tyrants to have the chance to reach power after the ouster of tyrants (e.g., within revolts or coups). This is how the Wahabi opposition movements emerged inside and outside the KSA: the Najd Brothers (who helped Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud in his conquering Arabia), the terrorist MB group, Juhayman Al-Otaybi, Dr. Al-Masaary, Al-Faqeeh, Salman Ouda, Safar Al-Hawali, ISIS, Al-Qaeda, and many others who will certainly emerge in the future.     

2- The KSA has reached this point of posing the pivotal question: when will it collapse and meet its downfall? The Saudi state has been established three times and collapsed twice: the very first one was destroyed by the Egyptian army of Muhammad Ali Pacha in 1818 A.D. The second Saudi state collapsed because of disputes and struggles within the Saudi household. The third, current Saudi state; i.e., the KSA, will eventually collapse despite the fact that its influence and control reached an unprecedented level never dreamed of by its founder and first king: Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud. The generation of the sons of Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud has ended now in king Salman; the generation of grandchildren is represented by the crown-prince M. Ibn Salman. When he is enthroned one day, the KSA will certainly face internal dangers/threats within the Saudi royal family members who will dispute and oppose one another. This is not to mention facing Shiites inside the KSA and within the regional level (i.e., Iran, the Houthis, and Hezbollah). As for the international level, most countries are informed now – thanks to the intellectual endeavors of all Quranists – that the Wahabi KSA is the axis of evil worldwide and the country that funds ISIS. Most countries realize now the fact that Wahabism has nothing to do with Islam. The KSA faces the fury of the West; the KSA has sought obsequiously to please (or appease) the American President, Donald Trump, by hundreds of US$ billions and by establishing centers allegedly to 'combat' extremism. Because of the international pressure, and out of fear that ISIS terrorists might emerge inside the KSA, the Saudi king is trying now to grant more years to the collapsing kingdom by removing sanctification from the pillars of Wahabism by allowing the 'sifting' and 'reviewing' of 'some' hadiths. This will NOT end the brutality and violence of the Saudi policemen who incarcerate, torture, or kill those who criticize or oppose the deified rulers. Thus, hadiths that urge the blind obedience to rulers will be retained and never excluded, of course!           

3- Eventually, the Saudi decree of allowing the 'sifting' and 'reviewing' of 'some' hadiths will come to nothing at all; Wahabi opposition figures reject hadiths that urge the blind obedience to rulers and they insist on rebelling against 'infidel' rulers within Wahabi jihad; besides, those Wahabi opposition figures will use writings of M. Abdul-Wahab to undermine the Wahabi legitimacy of Al-Saud royal family, as done by the London-based opposition figure Dr. Al-Masaary and others like him.   

 

LASTLY:

The best solution is that the Saudi royal family members must sever all relations with Wahabism once and for all. This topic deserves a separate article.  

 

 

The Veritable Danger Posed by Wahabism to the World Requires the Immediate Elimination of Wahabism

 

Introduction:

1- Comments of some of our beloved fellow Quranists about the previous article express their despair of any possible reform introduced inside the KSA. We ourselves share their view; it is impossible to reform the KSA, and yet, this will not stop us from writing about the call for reform. We thus talk about our stance and prove it within our website; we must follow the footsteps of the best and greatest role-models of reform; i.e., God's prophets/messengers. However despaired most of them were as they saw no reform occurred to the affluent, arrogant retinue members in their people, the prophets/messengers went on preaching reform till their last breath, while knowing that their people dislike those who give advice (see 7:79).     

2- We are 100% sure that the Saudi authorities will never respond to the call for reform that we preach (i.e., Quranism as the real Islam); yet, we have the greatest hope that our Almighty Lord God will make our person among the witnesses of our era in this world and on the Last Day. Our ceaseless call for reform and intellectual endeavor will qualify our person – God willing – to testify against the arrogant, affluent, unjust ones on the Day of Resurrection. 

3- We have not the slightest glimmer of hope that the arrogant, affluent, unjust, corrupt ones will ever be reformed; yet, there is 1% hope of preventing bloodshed of some people, and this is a more than enough motive to go on writing about reform (religious and otherwise) and warning against tyranny. Hence, our fellow Quranists must allow our person to go one writing about reforming the KSA; eventually, what benefits people remains on Earth (see 13:17). We are quite sure that the next generations, after we die, will read our words on our website (in Arabic an in English) and reflect on how the Saudi regime was established, flourished, and then collapsed and vanished, after massacring hundreds of thousands of victims! 

4- This is why we continue writing about this topic while hoping for the best.

 

Firstly: between Wahabism on the one hand and Nazism and communism on the other hand:

1- The 20th century witnessed WWI & WWII and the rise and collapse of the USSR. Within changes of the international scene, the 20th century witnessed also the emergence of the third, current Saudi state (a.k.a. the KSA) and how it leads and controls most countries of the Middle East, though it emerged in 1932 A.D. within the Third World, and thus never to be compared to the USSR and Nazi Germany; yet, Wahabism of the KSA makes it far more dangerous than the communist USSR (and communism that spread elsewhere at the time) and Nazi Germany.

2- When Nazism emerged and dominated Germany, it was a reaction to the humiliation (manifested in the treaty of Versailles in 1919) suffered by Germany after its defeat in WWI. To have revenge against this treaty, Adolf Hitler with his huge military machine destroyed most Europe and the west areas of the USSR, and his victims are more than 20 million dead persons, including Jews, Russians, and gypsies. After the defeat and fall of Hitler, it is impossible that the German Nazism might come back, as it is a source of disgrace and shame chasing the Germans. Another more important reason is the fact that Nazism was a temporary, local ideology that emerged as a reaction to the treaty of Versailles that brought humiliation to Germany. The Allies after WWII understood this and they never repeated the grave mistake of humiliating Germans; rather, they gave Germany the Marshall Plan to revive the economy and restore a high stature without Nazism. Thus, it is impossible that Nazism might return in Germany.         

3- Communism emerged as a reaction to protest against the savagery of capitalism; a communist state was established in Russia (an agricultural and not an industrial country) as a reaction to the tyranny of the Romanov family, and after the execution of this royal family, the Russian communist regime expanded in Asia. Stalin caused the death of millions of victims within this expansion in the East and Central Asia. Because communism has been an ideology that protests against Western capitalism from within the Western culture, it was bound to collapse sooner or later after introducing reform to capitalism. In fact, capitalism made its jaws and claws disappear (for a while) and improved conditions for workers; thus, the raison d'être of communism (and its tyranny and totalitarianism) disappeared. The revolution in means of communications of the global village penetrated the iron curtain and caused the sudden and swift collapse of the USSR. Even after Mao Zedong massacred tens of millions of victims, China now has its own form of capitalism and it rejected is Maoism and communism.           

 

Secondly: Wahabism is more dangerous than Nazism and communism:

1- Within the revolts and the spirit of getting rid of the American hegemony/dominance and European colonialism, communism was en vogue as a haven and the USSR was a mecca to revolutionaries. Lenin was a bearded man; communists imitated his bear that became the fashion for facial hair for men such as Castro and Guevara. After the collapse of the USSR and communism, Wahabism has become an alternative to face Western capitalism and the USA in particular. Some 'comrades' removed their beards, and some others grew larger Wahabi beards within the myth called 'Islamism' or political 'Islam'. The Wahabi KSA allied itself to the USA, and Wahabi opposition figures fought against the USA and the West in general and all countries loyal to the West: especially the KSA and Egypt.    

2- Wahabi rulers in the KSA and other Arab regimes are not as strong as the USSR or Nazi Germany. Wahabi opposition figures or terrorists like the MB, ISIS, and Al-Qaeda and other terrorist organizations to come will never be as strong as the USSR or Nazi Germany. Yet, the victims of Wahabism from 1745 A.D. until now are more than 10 million people who lost their lives. This is less than the victims of Nazism, communism, Marxism, Maoism, Stalinism, and Leninism. Wahabism is more dangerous as it exists from 1745 A.D. until now, posing a veritable threat to the modern world. Thus, Wahabism has emerged before Nazism and communism and has continued to exist after they vanished! News headlines worldwide contain massacres and heinous crimes of Wahabi terrorists.   

3- Wahabi armed opposition figures and organizations (i.e., terrorists) pose a threat to all powers worldwide: Europe, Canada, Russia, and the USA. Until now, the West receives fatal blows from Wahabi jihadists whose terrorist operations cannot be predicted regarding their locations and so on. The West managed to eliminate communism (which was part of the Western culture) via the intellectual war of ideas. Thus, the dangerous problem vis-à-vis Wahabism is that this foreign ideology is never part of the Western culture; people in the West cannot delve deeper into Wahabism to study and refute it within a successful intellectual war of ideas from within Islam/the Quran (i.e., Quranism). Quranism is this intellectual war of ideas that will save potential suicide bombers and the potential victims. Quranists are the only ones capable of engaging into this intellectual war of ideas by their intellectual endeavors. This is why the KSA hates Quranists as its foes.      

4- Millions of Muhammadans converted to Wahabism since 1970s, and some of these Muhammadans live in the West, suffering frustrations and a loss of identity, and they find a 'haven' or a 'refuge' within Wahabi mosques there when those Muhammadans face any crises. When such Wahabi mosques in the West heal the wounds of the souls of those Muhammadans, they prepare them to be terrorists. Some Wahabi terrorists were originally poor youths in the countries of the Muhammadans whose fathers fought against poverty and corrupt affluent classes by converting to communism. After the fall of communism, the frustrated youth who suffer poverty and loss of hope resort to Wahabism to change the sad reality around them by resorting to violence! Some of those who convert to Wahabism in the countries of the Muhammadans are wealthy, cultured, ambitious people who never before found a place under the sun to get high-rank positions; they found a glimmer of hope to gratify their ambitions by joining Wahabis within the opposition movements, assuming that Wahabis will be the future theocratic rulers of their countries! These youths (age-group: 18-38 years old) form the large part of the population in any of the countries of the Muhammadans, and they pose a veritable danger as far as security of a given country is concerned. Thus, it is of vital importance to begin an Islamic/Quranist intellectual war of ideas that will save potential suicide bombers and the potential victims. Quranists are the only ones capable of engaging into this intellectual war of ideas by their intellectual endeavors. This is why the KSA hates Quranists as its foes.             

5- Facing the Western weapons that can destroy the planet Earth totally in a very brief space of time, Wahabism has invented an invincible human weapon that cannot be defeated by any other weapons: the Wahabi jihadists who have suicidal tendencies who are willing to die; these are suicide bombers who massacre innocent, peaceful people in major cities. Those terrorist Wahabis linked to Wahabi opposition movements have found in their heritage of the traditional Sunnite books what would encourage and justify turning youths into suicide bombers and time bombs ready to explode anytime anywhere willing upon request! Wahabi jihadists are more than ready to willingly accept such suicide operations, as they are so brainwashed that they assume that Houris are waiting for them in Paradise, with open arms (and open legs!) once they die and massacre the 'infidels'! The West cannot defeat a person willing to explode his body within a suicide bombing, because such a brainwashed person rejects the instinct to remain alive; thus, Wahabis are guaranteed to defeat the West if this goes on. Wahabis even use human shields (a heinous act justified in their books) and they are willing to massacre Muslims/Muhammadans if this will lead to massacre more 'infidels'. Such a Satanist ideology cannot be defeated by weapons; even if the USA would gather all Wahabi terrorists to kill them off, but leaving Wahabism to exist still, more blood-thirsty generations of Wahabis will emerge and feel eager to seek revenge at whatever cost. Thus, it is of vital importance to begin an Islamic/Quranist intellectual war of ideas that will save potential suicide bombers and the potential victims. Quranists are the only ones capable of engaging into this intellectual war of ideas by their intellectual endeavors. This is why the KSA hates Quranists as its foes.            

6- It is common and very easy within Wahabism to declare any person(s) as infidel(s) and apostate(s). This is normal within any inter-religious debates as each adherents of any faith claim they own the absolute truth, but they accept differences within peaceful existence and do not commit violence against non-believers, unlike Wahabis who are very eager to kill non-Wahabis. Islam (i.e., Quranism) shows what disbelief is for the sake of preaching and warning, while giving all people who reject the Quran absolute religious freedom, as all humanity wait for God's judgment on the Last Day. In contrast, declaring others as infidels/apostates or nonbelievers by Wahabis means one thing: to kill them off as foes. This is the weapon that Wahabis use to face the West and the Shiites and all non-Wahabis, and even Wahabis who are deemed to be 'weak' in faith or application of Wahabism! Thus, Wahabi opposition movements and their figures and terrorists declare the royal Saudi family members and Wahabi scholars of the KSA as 'infidels' and 'apostates' who deserve to die! It is easy within Wahabism to issue fatwa to declare groups/persons as 'infidels' and 'apostates' who deserve to be put to death by extremist Wahabis who commit terrorist operations and suicide bombings in the East and in the West. Thus, it is of vital importance to begin an Islamic/Quranist intellectual war of ideas that will save potential suicide bombers and the potential victims. Quranists are the only ones capable of engaging into this intellectual war of ideas by their intellectual endeavors. This is why the KSA hates Quranists as its foes.            

7- The most dangerous thing is that Wahabis dare to claim falsely that they belong to Islam! The Wahabi ideology is based on an earthly, man-made, fabricated religion accepted by most Sunnite  Muhammadans (i.e., the Sunnite Ibn Hanbal doctrine). Using petrodollars of oil revenues, the KSA deceive the whole world by imposing the fact that Wahabis represent Islam! It is impossible to defeat Wahabis when Wahabism is protected against any measure of discussion and being put to question. This is why the KSA does its best to protect its Wahabi ideology; thus, Quranists are the arch-enemies of Wahabism and Quranism poses a veritable threat to the existence of Wahabism.   

 

Thirdly: the West countries know the above points; yet:

1- The institutions of the USA and the West know very well that Wahabism is the source of danger and terrorism worldwide; they know, since 25 years at least, about the intellectual activities and endeavors of our person, Dr. A. S. Mansour, and they follow these endeavors as they know about Quranism. The only problem – for them and not for our person – is that Quranists are believers (in God and in the Last Day) who are loyal to their faith and belong to real Islam, whereas working with the West institutions entails that one belongs to them totally, entirely, and wholeheartedly, a thing that we refuse and so are all of our fellow Quranists. The West institutions refuse that Quranists would work with them as equal peers; they insist that Quranists would work under them and follow them blindly. Quranists need the immediate help of the West to clear the name of Islam from heinous crimes committed by Wahabis who have hijacked the name of Islam. The West needs Quranism and Quranists to protect the West countries from Wahabi terrorism. Yet, the field of security entails 100% trust and loyalty; the West cannot trust Quranists totally since the Quranists are loyal only to their faith. The West countries are hindered from cooperating with Quranists by another thing: they have overt and covert complicated and multiple relations with the regimes of the KSA, the Gulf monarchies, and Egypt, and they have their alliances against Iran. Thus, such relations and alliances will be threatened if the West countries openly would cooperate with Quranists.            

2- The West countries have found the alternative; instead of cooperating with Quranists, they use them to get vital information available (for free) in Arabic and in English within our Quranism website and YouTube channel and also within fatwas we issue to answer voluntarily and freely questions posed to our person via email.  

3- Indeed, the USA (and the West), we tend to think, makes use of Qurnaism/Quranists, as a source of threat to Wahabism, to pressurize the KSA. The Saudis feel frightened that they might lose some influence in the West because of Quranists who might have a measure of influence at the expense of the KSA. We tend to think (and not all surmises are necessarily wrong!) that the USA pressurizes the Saudis by threatening them to ally itself with Quranists instead of Wahabis. Such pressure bears its fruits now; the KSA proclaims and announces the intention to 'sift' and 'review' hadiths. This is a decisive point; all hadiths are no longer deemed hallowed or holy as per the formal Saudi vision. Doubt is thus cast on 'some' hadiths, and this will make ample room to other non-Wahabi Sunnites to form their own visions to cast doubt on other hadiths. This will certainly undermine the whole of the so-called Sunna hadiths and books.     

4- This is why we tend to think that it has not been easy for the Saudi king Salman to issue a decree containing this initiative to 'sift' and 'review' hadiths, especially that before he was enthroned, he was the prince of Riyadh who vehemently opposed that Saudi women might be allowed to drive cars. And he, along with his brother the Interior Minister Nayef Ibn Abdul-Aziz, faced with all their might the Wahabi opposition movements led by Dr. Al-Masaary, Dr. Al-Faqeeh, Salman Ouda, and Safar Al-Hawali. It is strange that after the passage of some years, king Salman would issue the decree to 'sift' and 'review' hadiths to protect the Saudi throne. Let us remember that the former Saudi ambassador in the USA, the prince Bandar Ibn Sultan, who has exercised huge influence on the White House and the American administration, was the spearhead of the war against our person (and against Quranism) in Washington. Where is he now, by the way?!   

5- The KSA now has taken the first step within a long route, after the preliminary steps of (1) limiting the powers of the religious police, (2) allowing women to drive cars, and (3) controlling and curbing the outspoken extremist Wahabi sheikhs and clergymen. The major step is when the KSA would declare that it disowns and rejects Wahabism altogether, but how is this ever going to happen? We provide the answer to this question in the next article.

 

 

It Is NOT Difficult for the KSA to Reject Wahabism

 

Introduction: the source of legitimacy for ruling regimes:

1- Any given modern state derives its legitimacy from within its nation (the nation is the source of all authorities), and then comes the international recognition as this modern state join the UN and regional organizations.

2- In ancient eras, legitimacy was derived from the military power; it could be of foreign military conquerors that dominate the occupied nations, as was the case with the Pharaonic, Arab, Roman, Persian, Mongolian, Spanish Mameluke, and Ottoman empires and the colonial powers (e.g., Japan, Italy, France, Britain, and Belgium) of our modern era. The military power could belong to the inside of a given nation that defeated the existing regime and ruled instead; for instance, as was the case when the Abbasids defeated the Umayyads, when the Fatimids defeated the Abbasids and ruled Egypt and the Levant instead of them, and when the crusaders defeated the Abbasids and established their kingdoms in the Levant and Asia Minor. 

3- The Sunnite sharia laws recognize the following: (1)'right' of sultans/rulers who conquered cities and countries via the military power and became 'owners' of people/nations and lands, (2) the existing sultans/rulers who inherited thrones, and (3) rebels and revolting men who defeated existing sultans/rulers and establish new regimes/rule. The historian and scholar Al-Mawardy has detailed this in his book titled (Al-Ahkam Al-Sultaniyya) (or literally in English: Rules of the Sultans).

4- Within the deserts of Arabia, especially in the Najd region, many kingdoms emerged and fought one another; such temporary states typically emerged and collapsed when defeated by other states. Some movements (e.g., the Zanj rebellion and the Qarmatians) relied on an earthly religion to unify its men to expand their kingdoms/states eastward and northward under a religious banner, and they collapsed when its religious trend waned gradually. This is exactly what happened to the first and second Saudi states which emerged, expanded, using military power and Wahabi trend, and then collapsed eventually. This was done despite the difference of the extremist religious trends between the Qarmatians (extremist Shiites) and the Saudi state (extremist Sunnite Wahabis). The Arab scholar with rare genius, Ibn Khaldoun, whose seminal book titled (The Introduction) on sociology is analyzed in our book titled "The Introduction of Ibn Khaldoun: An Analytical Study", has written a theory on tribalism and religious extremism of Bedouins as unifying forces. This theory applies to the Saudi state that emerged three centuries after the death of Ibn Khaldoun; he says in his book that desert-Arabs and Bedouins get unified within temporary states based on tribalism and they thus destroy civilized cities/countries; this temporary states gain longer duration if based on an extremist religious call, so that two legitimacies would exist: tribalism (the sword and military power) and religion (mottoes to urge others to join the military forces to defend 'Islam' and theocratic rulers). This theory of Ibn Khaldoun applies to the Saudi states that collapsed and the current KSA that will collapse later on.        

5- We provide below an overview about the Saudi state between its fake/sham tribal 'legitimacy' (i.e., using the sword or military power) and its fake/sham Wahabi 'legitimacy', in order to examine the possibility of the KSA eliminating Wahabism and thus getting rid of the so-called Wahabi 'legitimacy'. 

 

Firstly: the Saudi state:

1- When founder of Wahabism, M. Ibn Abdul-Wahab, emerged in the Najd region tribalism dominated in cities that fought against one another, based on the 'legitimacy' of the sword and belonging to strong tribes as allies. M. Ibn Saud was the ruler of a city-state called Al-Dariyya, which was never very strong among other city-states in Arabian deserts. This changed when Ibn Saud made a religious and political alliance with Ibn Abdul-Wahab in 1748 A.D., and Ibn Abdul-Wahab deputized Ibn Saud within this religious call of Wahabism to declare all non-Wahabis as disbelievers who deserve to be fought and put to death and that their countries must be occupied and invaded by Wahabis led by Ibn Saud to expand his kingdom. Ibn Saud used to rule s per tribalism as he inherited his throne from his ancestors; this type of legitimacy was recognized and acknowledged at the time, even when other city-states fought under tribalism and sought to expand their lands at the expense of one another. Yet, the Wahabi religious 'legitimacy' was deemed stronger in the eyes of desert-Arabs and Bedouins, and a great number of them converted to  Wahabism and joined the rows of jihadists fighting under the leadership of the prince Ibn Saud for the sake of their Wahabi religion, while assuming that they will enter into Paradise after their death, if they were killed in the battlefield or if they achieved military victory.           

2- As the case was with the Qarmatians, the Al-Saud family managed to conquer most Arabia and the first Saudi state emerged; they occupied the Hejaz region (where Mecca is situated) and attacked Iraq many times. The Qarmatians with their military power struggled against the Abbasid caliphate, and likewise, the Saudis struggled against the Ottoman caliphate. Another similarity is that desert-Arabs and Bedouins managed (with help of foreign, external interference, of course) to bring about the downfall of the Qarmatians, whereas the Egyptian army of the ruler Muhammad Ali Pacha (and this also is a foreign, external interference) defeated and destroyed the first Saudi state, to serve the Ottomans and to crush a threat that might have endangered Egypt.

3- As for the Saudi 'legitimacy' of rule within the first Saudi state, the Al-Saud family would not have achieved such victory to annex to their rule most of Arabia by themselves or though tribalism; rather, this change was done via the Wahabi Sunnite Ibn Hanbal doctrine 'legitimacy'. Thus, the Al-Saud family combined two 'legitimacies': the 'legitimacy' of tribalism or the sword (i.e., the military power) as a family that managed to defeat others within battles, and the Wahabi Sunnite Ibn Hanbal doctrine 'legitimacy', as if Al-Saud rulers were defenders of Islam!

4- The basis and origin was the 'legitimacy' of tribalism or the sword as the Al-Saud family managed to conquer most Arabia. Even Ibn Abdul-Wahab resorted to the military power of the Al-Saud family to live under its protection and fight under the banner of the prince Ibn Saud. By the way, before the alliance with Ibn Abdul-Wahab, Ibn Saud had the legitimacy of inheriting his throne from his ancestors; i.e., his ancestral grandfather Mani' Ibn Rabeia Al-Muraydi Al-Dari' (the oldest known ancestor of the Al-Saud family) was the one who established the city called Al-Dariyya. This legitimacy of inheriting the throne remained strong and side-by-side with the Wahabi 'legitimacy'. When Ibn Saud died in 1765 A.D., his son Abdul-Aziz ruled, and when he died in 1803, his eldest son, Saud, ruled, and he in his turn died in 1814, succeeded by his son Abdullah who was defeated by the Egyptian army led by Ibrahim Pacha (son of M. Ali Pacha, king of Egypt), in 1818. This inheritance of the throne has been legitimate and done within the presence of the founder of Wahabism: Ibn Abdul-Wahab, who himself died in 1791 during the reign of Abdul-Aziz Ibn M. Ibn Saud. This means that the Wahabi Sunnite Ibn Hanbal doctrine 'legitimacy' was a secondary that helped the tribal and inherited legitimacy of the Al-Saud family within the notions accepted during the Middle-Ages.

5- Within the second Saudi state, formed only in the Najd region, the role of the Wahabi Sunnite Ibn Hanbal doctrine 'legitimacy' was dwarfed and no expansions outside the Najd region occurred. This second Saudi state was established by the prince Turki Ibn Abdullah Ibn M. Ibn Al-Saud in Riyadh, but his sons disputed among one another, and this resulted in the collapse of this second Saudi state in 1891 by Al-Rasheed family who ruled Al-Hael region. The last Saudi prince, Abdul-Rahman Ibn Al-Feisal Ibn Turki, left Riyadh and moved to Kuwait. The dwarfed Wahabi legitimacy (which was, in fact, almost absent) during the emergence of the second Saudi state reinforced the role of the legitimacy of tribalism and inherited throne of the Saudi family, and this led to the fact that brothers of the same ruler (prince Turki) fought against one another and became so weak that the Al-Rasheed family rulers of Al-Hael region (who used to be loyal to the Al-Saud family) defeated the Al-Saud family and brought about the collapse of the second Saudi state. It is noteworthy that the Al-Rasheed family rulers were Wahabis but their Wahabism did not prevent them from fighting the Al-Saud family.           

6- The role of Wahabism was dwarfed at the time when Abdul-Aziz Ibn Abdul-Rahman Ibn Al-Feisal Ibn Turki Ibn Al-Saud began in 1902 A.D. the endeavors to establish the third, current Saudi state. The massacres committed by the first Saudi state (crushed by the Egyptian army) and internecine fighting within the second Saudi state (crushed by Al-Hael rulers) lingered still in the minds of desert-Arabs and Bedouins. In fact, Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud suffered a lot from the oscillating stances and shifting loyalties of Bedouins as the allied themselves to him and turned against him (and vice-versa) many times. This made Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud feel urged to revive Wahabism once more to unify these Bedouins within a religious banner. In fact, he revived the idea of the Qarmatians of building cities/colonies in the deserts (called immigration centers) to train Bedouins militarily and religiously and to each them blind obedience and loyalty to their prince and leader Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud. The Qarmatians built such centers/cities to teach their followers their Shiite doctrine and military skills in the same manner of blind obedience and loyalty to their Qarmatian rulers. Such military camps had mosques to teach Bedouins Wahabism as if it were Islam; they were taught that they have the 'right' to massacre all the 'infidels' (i.e., non-Wahabis who refuse to convert!) and to confiscate their lands, women, and possessions. Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud named these warriors as the Najd Brothers who were trained to be fierce, savage fighters who would rather die (presumably to enter into Paradise!) than to accept defeat. They helped Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud to 'restore' regions ruled as one kingdom by his ancestors in the name of Wahabism and by the swords of the Najd Brothers. This victory led to the emergence of the third Saudi state, and the Najd Brothers felt they played a major role in this achievement and they saw – along with their Wahabi sheikhs – that they have the 'right' to rule the Saudi state established by their swords and their Wahabism. This led to the first collision between the Saudi 'legitimacy' of a throne gained by the sword (in the view of Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud) and Wahabi 'legitimacy' deemed as above any ruler (in the view of the Najd Brothers and Wahabi sheikhs). In our book in English titled "The Wahabi Opposition Movements in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in the Twentieth Century" (found on this link: http://www.ahl-alquran.com/arabic/book_main.php?main_id=85), we have detailed the stages of how the Najd Brothers opposed their master Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud within conferences and armed revolts, and they were eventually defeated and crushed in the Sabilla battle in 1930. Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud managed to make Wahabi sheikhs submit to his throne and to confine and limit the 'legitimacy' of the Saudi state to the Al-Saud family members. This means that Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud restored by the sword regions ruled by his ancestors, and he declared that sovereignty is God's and then to sons of Ibn Saud.      

7- Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud in a preemptory measure to prevent the chance of the emergence of any opposition movement or rebellion named the Saudi state after his family in 1932 A.D.; the KSA stands for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Thus, he never thought of naming it the Wahabi Saudi kingdom, or anything of the sort; rather, he intentionally disregarded the use of the term Wahabism inside the KSA and used the term ''Islam'' instead. This grave mistake has tarnished the name of Islam, making it appear as if it were responsible for the heinous crimes committed by Wahabis. Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud planned earlier to get rid of the Najd Brothers after making use of them to serve his purposes to found his Saudi state, and he established an alternative group: the terrorist MB group, established in 1928 in Egypt. Yet, Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud prevented the Egyptian MB members to work inside the KSA, so that 'legitimacy' of his Saudi state would NOT be derived from Wahabism but from the Saudi royal family members who inherited the throne and kingdom from their forefathers.  

 

Lastly: it is NOT difficult for the KSA to reject Wahabism:

1- The Wahabi opposition movements have not ended inside the KSA after defeating the Najd Brothers (most of them killed, and the remainder were neutralized); oil revenues or petrodollars have encouraged the Saudi royal family members to spread and propagate Wahabism outside the KSA. This increased the credibility of this fake and shame Wahabi legitimacy, the same weapon used by Wahabi opposition movements and figures inside and outside the KSA who rebel against Al-Saud royal family and incite rebellion and revolt. This is exemplified by Juhayman Al-Otaybi (who occupied and invaded the Kaaba Sacred Mosque in 1400 A.H. and took pilgrims as hostages) and the rebel thinkers/sheikhs Dr. Al-Masaary, Dr. Al-Faqeeh, Salman Ouda, and Safar Al-Hawali, as well as Wahabi terrorists of Bin Laden and Al-Qaeda. Wahabi expansion worldwide added new enemies to the long list of archenemies of the Wahabi Al-Saud royal family members. This means that the Saudi state has made a beast that has turned against it eventually; the Wahabi terrorist organizations like the MB, Al-Qaeda, and ISIS (and the ones that will emerge after ISIS!) are archenemies of the KSA and the Saudi royal family now. Besides, the cost of protecting Wahabism from being criticized, discussed, and questioned is exorbitant and very high; in fact, the political and military burdens required by Wahabism are now beyond the (financial) capacity of the Saudi royal family. Let us remember that those allies of the KSA (esp. the USA) begin to criticize the KSA outspokenly and more often than not.       

2- Today, many people wait eagerly for the imminent 'horrific' collapse of the KSA and the fall of the mighty Saudi royal family members; hence, this is not the time for temporary solutions that will NOT last or be effective in the long run such as 'sifting', 'reviewing', and 'selecting' some hadiths and rejecting other hadiths. Events of today's world are faster in pace: attempts to beautify and embellish the terribly ugly face of Wahabism will be in vain however large the sums of US$ dedicated to such attempts. Such endeavors will be of no use at all; victims of Wahabism and bloodbaths caused by it increase with the passage of time now. The KSA needs a radical solution soon before tempests would eradicate and cause the ouster of the Saudi royal family members who are already dispute among one another. This is not to mention bloodbaths in Yemen caused by the KSA (by the way, Yemen is like Afghanistan: a veritable graveyard for occupiers and invaders; even Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud refused to invade it after he defeated its ruler/imam, saying Yemen was never part of the Saudi kingdoms established by his forefathers!). The master of the White House still dreams of milking the Saudi cow more and more! There are those inside the USA who think seriously about the pros and cons of both profitable situations: to milk the Saudi cow to the last drop of milk (and the last drop of blood!) or to slaughter this Saudi cow immediately!            

3- The founder of the KSA, king Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud, was generous with the remainder of the Najd Brothers who did not got killed in Al-Sabilla battle when they were defeated; he forced them to retire after grating them large financial rewards to live in peace, but on the margin. King Salman, the son of the late Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud, can do the same with the Al-Sheikh family members and their likes among Wahabi clergymen who still live in the caves of the Middle-Ages. It is enough that king Salman would declare or issue a decree that Wahabism is no longer fit to be the official religion for his kingdom; when he would do this, Wahabis inside the KSA will never dare to protest against his declaration or decree. The reason: simply because Wahabism is collapsing and declining already; its expected lifespan has ended when the KSA has been modernized. The only one carrying the burden of Wahabis over his shoulders is the Saudi king; he should throw this burden away to eliminate and put an end to Wahabism so that the whole world will get rid of it and sigh in relief.   

4- But how Wahabism is to be eliminated from the current Saudi state (a.k.a. the KSA)? We provide the answer to this question in the next article.

 

 

Refuting the Lie of the Saudi Crown-Prince Regarding the 'Return' of the KSA to 'Moderate' Islam

 

Introduction:

1-  The Saudi crown-prince, M. Ibn Salman, has expressed in a recent TV talk show that the KSA aims to return to 'moderate' Islam, which was the one allegedly adopted before 1979.

2- The crown-prince forgets that in the 1970s, the Sacred Kaaba Mosque was invaded by the Wahabi terrorist Juhayman Al-Otaybi, who was the disciple of Ibn Baz, the mufti of the KSA. We have analyzed this terrorist act of Al-Otaybi in our book titled "The Wahabi Opposition Movements in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in the Twentieth Century" (found in English on this link: http://www.ahl-alquran.com/arabic/book_main.php?main_id=85).

3- The crown-prince might have meant to indirectly respond to the criticism leveled at the KSA by the Turkish 'sultan' Erdogan, who is a member of the terrorist MB group, one of the enemies of the KSA. Erdogan does not like what the KSA announced regarding 'reviewing' and 'sifting' Sunnite hadiths. Of course, Erdogan desires to appear as if more 'religious' than the rulers of the KSA; he is not a specialist in sects, hadiths, and laws of the Sunnite religion, as he cares only for becoming one day the 'leader' of the 'Islamic' world that will face the EU and the USA. We have written an article showing the danger of such tendencies of Erdogan, when a failed coup d'état occurred in Turkey and the Russian ambassador there was assassinated (this article is found in English on this link: http://www.ahl-alquran.com/English/show_article.php?main_id=15705).  

4- We refute such a lie by the Saudi crown-prince by presenting Quranic facts and facts of history.

 

Firstly: is there something called 'moderate' Islam and 'terrorist, extremist' Islam?!:

1- The Saudi crown-prince has adopted the common political discourse that contains fundamental errors. There is nothing called 'moderate' Islam; this strange term implies as if Islam were of several types to choose from (light, moderate/medium, and extremist/heavy!), and it is as if the crown-prince desires to get rid of the extremist, terrorist variety to adhere to a 'moderate' variety! Of course, Islam given to Muhammad is one thing: the Quran. 

2- Thus, the words of the Saudi crown-prince imply that the KSA since 1979 never followed the real Islam of Muhammad, but disbelieved in it, as real Islam is the Quran sent by God's mercy and made to descend to Muhammad: "We did not send you except as mercy to the humankind." (21:107).

 

Secondly: Islam is one religion with one Book to all humanity until the end of days:

1- Real Muslims who seek God's mercy believes that Islam is one religions with no varieties within it and that Islam is contained only in One Book: God's Word: the Quran. the Quranic message is God's Final Word to all human beings till the end of days. Real Muslims  know that Islam is the religion of justice, peace, mercy, religious freedom, political freedom, human rights, and human dignity. This is understood ONLY in case one reads the Quran as per its own Quranic terminology, while believing it is the only source of Islam used as the sole criterion to judge deeds of those who deem themselves as 'Muslims' while they distort it and tarnish its name with their crimes.  

2- Away from the distortions introduced by Sunnites, Shiites, and Sufis, Truth-seeking Muslims know that Islam is One Religion, whereas Muslims/Muhammadans have their own sects and doctrines and they dispute with one another and that the Shiite, Sunnite, and Sufi religions are indeed earthly, fabricated, man-made religions that have nothing to do with Islam (i.e., the Quran). Sunnite Sufism is the religion of the larger part of the Muhammadans, as Sunnite Sufis apply Sunnite sharia laws while worshipping mausoleums. The Sunnite religion has four main doctrines, but the worst of them all is the Hanbali doctrine of terrorism, fanaticism, extremism, and bigotry. This Ibn Hanbal doctrine has evolved into Wahabism, the doctrine established by M. Abdul-Wahab. Wahabism is the religion of terrorism, theocracy, and tyranny; this wicked religion of Satan till exist in our modern era of democracy and human rights.       

 

Thirdly: the danger of mixing between Islam and 'Muslims':

1- It is a grave error and a huge mistake to assume that Islam is responsible for crimes committed by Muslims/Muhammadans since the era of Arab conquests until now. This assumption is a grave injustice against Islam; crimes if Sufis, Sunnites, and Shiites have nothing to do with Islam (i.e., the Quran). 

2- It is illogical that when a Muslim commits a crime, people would assume that Islam is the reason behind this crime. It is very wrong and silly to suppose that any Muslim person represents Islam or to be dealt with as a reference embodying Islam and its Quranic sharia. How come that any religion would have billions of 'representatives' in history till our modern time?! This is sheer madness and utter nonsense! 

 

Fourthly: why Christianity is not measured using the same standard?!:

1- What proves that non-Muslims insist on insulting Islam in that way is that they never accuse Christianity of being the cause of crimes committed by Christians in history and in the modern era: Byzantines who severely persecuted Egyptian Coptic Christians, crimes of catholic popes and their alliance to European kings, crimes and bloodbaths of crusaders in Constantinople and Jerusalem, Spanish inquisitions and persecution of Muslims and Jews in Spain after the fall of Granada, crimes and massacres of the Spanish, English, and French people in the two Americas and in Asia, American Christians massacring the millions of the Red Indians the original inhabitants, crimes of European colonial powers in the Arab world and Asia, the crimes of opium wars in China, the American crimes in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Vietnam, and Iraq, Nazi crimes in WWII, and Serbian crimes against Muslims in the Balkans. Within all such history, no one accused Christianity of being the direct cause. Why would some people ascribe the terrorist group called Boko Haram to Islam, whereas no one ascribes the Lord's Resistance Army in Africa to Christianity?!        

2- No one ascribes to Buddhism what the Japanese have done in Pearl Harbor and in China in areas invaded by Japan in WWII. No one ascribes to Buddhism persecution and massacres inflicted on the weak, helpless Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar. 

3- When Mao Zedong and Stalin massacred millions of people in Asia, no one ascribes such massacres to communism.

4- Thus, the earthly, man-made religions are NOT accused of being the cause of crimes committed by some of their followers; yet, Islam is accused now of being the cause of crimes committed by those who deem themselves as 'Muslims'. Islam, as the divine religion of God, is recorded in One Book that error never comes to it at all, as God preserves its text. Thus, the Quran is the sole criterion for Quranists to judge deeds and behaviors of all people who believe or disbelieve in the Quran.    

 

Fifthly: there is no person representing Islam, even Muhammad:

1- It is wrong to assume that any 'Muslims' embody Islam; they even have invented other appellations to their religions: Sunnite, Shiite, and Sufi religions, and they have deemed the Quran as NOT enough for them as they adhere to fabricated hadiths/books of Al-Bokhary and his likes, placing such narratives above the Quran itself under the pretext that they replacing the Quranic sharia legislations! 

2- Islam is never embodied by any persons. Islam is not embodied by Muhammad himself. We refer readers to our article titled "Muhammad Does not Embody Islam, Let Alone Muslims" (found in English on this link: http://www.ahl-alquran.com/English/show_article.php?main_id=16369). Proof: some Quranic verses reproach, rebuke, and command Muhammad, while asserting he will be judged on the Last Day like the rest of all humanity including his foes. If Muhammad were embodying Islam, he would not have been mentioned in the Quran as a mortal who will be judged on the Last Day.

3- Hence, to consider Muhammad as embodiment of Islam is notion of disbelief that reflects rejection of the Quranic message of Islam. This weird notion adopted by most Muhammadans imply as if Muhammad were the author of Islam and caused narratives/hadiths to replace Quranic verses! Real Muslims must reject such a polytheistic notion; as per the Quran, we believe only in the fact that the only mission of Muhammad was to convey the Quranic message given to him through arch-angel Gabriel from the Lord God: the Sole Owner of the Judgment Day and of the Monotheistic Religion of Islam. Thus, the only reference in Islam is God's Word: the Quran.    

 

Sixthly: how did this mixing between Islam and Muslims occur?

1- Such a falsehood has begun with the Arab conquests, the source and basis of all evils in history of Muslims (the Muhammadans) that marks the rejection of Islam (i.e., the Quran) by the so-called companions and their caliphs in Arabia (Abou Bakr, Omar, Othman, and Ali) when they raised the banner of Islam falsely and deceitfully to conquer other nations to loot, enslave, dominate, and invade. Within the margin of such rejection of Quranic teachings, the earthly, fabricated Sunnite religion has emerged to endorse features of terrorism, domination, theocracy, and authoritarianism. As a reaction to the Sunnite religion of desert-Arabs who conquered the Persian Empire, the Shiite one has emerged to represent Persian nationalism. Within the margin of the Shiite religion, the Sufi religion has emerged to represent religiosity of the masses.     

2- As per our previous writings on the emergence of the earthly, man-made, fabricated religions of the Muhammadans, Wahabism has emerged as a revival of the Ibn Hanbal extremist Sunnite doctrine, applied by the emergence of the first Saudi state that considered that the only 'Muslims' are Wahabis who must fight all non-Wahabis everywhere.  

3- Enemies of the Quran (i.e., real and only Islam) rejoice at associating crimes of the Muhammadans in all eras with Islam so that the name of this great religion would be tarnished. Superficial scholars and researchers in many centers, universities, and specializations, especially political sociology maintain this falsehood in their writings and so are media people in the press and TV. Thus, it has been a common mistake to link terrorist Wahabis, especially the MB group and other Wahabi opposition movements, to the name of Islam by calling them "Islamists".    

 

Seventhly: what does the crown-prince mean by returning to 'moderate' Islam that existed in the KSA before 1979?

1- What has dominated the KSA before and after 1979 is never 'moderate' Islam; rather it is a terrorist, bloody religion called Wahabism; thus, the crown-prince indirectly describes deeds of his paternal uncles (the late kings: Khaled, Fahd, and Abdullah) as terrorism and not 'moderate' Islam. 

2- What about deeds of this crown-prince who is the de facto ruler of the KSA since his father, king Salman, ascended the throne. We have the right to ask about the one who is responsible for massacres occurring now in Yemen.

3- It is a fatal mistake to assume that the KSA witnessed the so-called 'moderate' Islam that urged peace and tolerance before 1979.

3/1: The third, current Saudi state was established over the corpses of about one hundred thousand victims killed within a series of massacres; chief among them is the massacre of Al-Ta'if committed shortly before Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud conquered Mecca. There are massacres that are less known because media at the time did not cover them, unlike the case with the massacre of Al-Ta'if. The Najd Brothers committed massacres in Iraq and the Levant while they helped Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud to establish his kingdom, and when they opposed him and fought & rebelled against him, he defeated them in the battle of Sabilla.  

3/2: Saudi Wahabism is responsible for massacres committed by the Wahabi army of Pakistan (in the West of India, nearer the KSA) against millions of Sufis in the Bengal of the East who refused to convert to Sunnite Wahabism (thus deemed 'infidels' who deserve to be put to death!), and this led to the creation of the state of Bangladesh with the help of Indira Gandhi of India.  

3/3: Wahabism is the direct cause of the civil war in Algeria as the Wahabi trend there reached power through elections and this has been opposed by the military there. Wahabism caused the emergence of terrorist organizations like Al-Qaeda. Wahabism is the religion of the terrorist Juhayman Al-Otaybi. Until recently, Wahabi sheikhs and clergymen in the KSA declared their support to ISIS terrorists and jihadists in Syria. Indeed, the ISIS terrorists have emerged from directly from Wahabism and the KSA. ISIS now is an enemy of the KSA; yet, ISIS cannot reject Saudi Wahabism; even ISIS taught Saudi Wahabi curricula when it invaded certain areas in Iraq and the Syria. The same curricula are taught by Boko Haram in Nigeria and the Youths' movement in Somalia. Even Al-Azhar cannot disown ISIS, because the cursed religion of ISIS, i.e., Wahabism, is the religion of Al-Azhar institution now in these times of degeneration.        

4- The KSA never witnessed any religious 'moderation'; its religion remains the Wahabi religion of terrorism while hijacking the name of Islam and ascribing Wahabism falsely and forcibly to Islam.

 

Lastly:

1- If the Saudi crown-prince embraces what he calls as 'moderate' Islam, why would not he stop the war in Yemen and torture in Saudi  prisons? Why do not he release the innocent ones from Saudi prisons? Of course, he can do this if he wants to, as he controls everything in the KSA now.

2- Does the so-called 'moderate' Islam allow the crown-prince to continue massacring children of Yemen and torturing innocent people on a daily basis in Saudi prisons?!  

3- This grave injustice regarding Islam must be stopped.

4- The Best Discourse: "Do not ever think that God is unaware of what the wrongdoers do. He only defers them until a Day when the sights stare. Their necks outstretched, their heads upraised, their gaze unblinking, their hearts void. And warn mankind of the Day when the punishment will come upon them, and the wicked will say, "Our Lord, defer us for a little while, and we will answer Your call and follow the messengers." Did you not swear before that there will be no passing away for you? And you inhabited the homes of those who wronged themselves, and it became clear to you how We dealt with them, and We cited for you the examples. They planned their plans, but their plans are known to God, even if their plans can eliminate mountains. Do not ever think that God will break His promise to His messengers. God is Strong, Able to Avenge. On the Day when the earth is changed into another earth, and the heavens, and they will emerge before God, the One, the Dominant. On that Day, you will see the sinners bound together in chains. Their garments made of tar, and the Fire covering their faces. That God may repay each soul according to what it has earned. God is Quick in reckoning. This is a proclamation for the humankind ,that they may be warned thereby, and know that He is One God, and that people of understanding may remember." (14:42-52). As always, God says nothing but the Absolute Truth.

 

 

 

Refuting the So-Called 'Moderate Islam' of the Saudi Crown-Prince

 

Firstly: the 'moderate Islam' of the Saudi crown-prince is utter disbelief:

1- The main tenet of Islam is the testimony of (There is no God but Allah), and it is phrased in the confining style in the Arabic tongue, indicating that nothing and no one should be deified alongside with God. There is no in-between or medial position here; one either to worship God within monotheism while devoting religion wholly to Him to be among the winner in Paradise, or to be among the polytheists in Hell because of deifying any mortals and things beside God. Thus, monotheism means to dedicate one's religion (i.e., acts of worship, sanctification, and deification) only to God. "...They have no ally apart from Him, and He shares His judgment with no one." (18:26); "...Whoever hopes to meet his Lord, let him work righteousness, and never associate anyone with the worship of his Lord." (18:110); "Such is God, your Lord - the True. What is there, beyond the Truth, except falsehood? How are you turned away?" (10:32).     

2- Likewise, real believers cannot believe in any other discourses, narratives, or hadiths beside God's Discourse: the Quran. This means that anyone who believes even in merely one hadith/narrative with the Quran is a disbeliever who rejects the Quran: ...In which discourse, beyond this, will they believe in?" (77:50 & 7:185); "These are God's Verses which We recite to you in Truth. In which discourse, after God and His verses, will they believe?" (45:6). 

3- God says the following about polytheists who die without repentance: "...Whoever associates others with God, God has forbidden him Paradise, and his dwelling is the Fire. The unjust ones have no supporters." (5:72). Those who believe devotedly and whole-heartedly in the core of Islam (There is no God but Allah) but died after committing grave sins without sincere repentance and atonement will well in Hell forever as they have transgressed God's limits and rules; this is mentioned in the Quran directly after the inheritance rules: "These are the limits set by God. Whoever obeys God and His messenger, He will admit him into Gardens of Paradise beneath which rivers flow, to abide therein forever. That is the great victory. But whoever disobeys God and His messenger, and oversteps His limits, He will admit him into a Fire, wherein he abides forever, and he will have a shameful torment." (4:13-14). Thus, we have the right to pose this question: is there anyone in the KSA who gives women their rightful shares of inheritance? Or women there are deprived of such rights as men are the only inheritors?!   

4- There is nothing called 'moderation' in Islam or medial, in-between position or 'moderate', partial application of it; those who claim otherwise are ignoramus who know nothing about the Quran and they actually disbelieve in it. Those disbelievers will certainly see that there is no medial position between Paradise and Hell in the Hereafter.   

 

Secondly: what does the false term 'moderate Islam' mean in the mentality of the Saudi crown-prince?:

1- The words of the Saudi crown-prince about the return of his kingdom to the so-called 'moderate Islam' were applauded very much, as if he received a standing ovation like the Egyptian singer/diva Um Kulthum. We except nothing different from the slaves of the Saudi master; the culture of slaves is the norm inside the Saudi state. Those slaves will readily applaud their Saudi master if he tells them that the sun rises from the west, and their reaction will be the same if he tells them that the sun rises from the east. Those Saudi slaves are devoted to their Saudi master regardless of his name, as they deify their rulers. They are now applauding the crown-prince, Ibn Salman, and before him, they applauded to Ibn Nayef with the same enthusiasm. This is the culture of deifying the rulers; they have forgotten about their Lord God and He has made them forget themselves, as the Quran tells us about hypocrites of every era.        

2- The applause of hypocrites is never a guarantee of the success of tyrants or of keeping their authority. It is clear that the young crown-prince needs this applause badly and he will punish those who do not applaud him.  

3- This is a decisive point in this political issue; tyrants of the Middle-East are of two types: the 'light' type of tyrants that one can bear, such as the military tyrant in Egypt, and who never would force citizens to applaud them. Most Egyptians disregard tyrants who rule them; they never listen to their speeches and they boycott their sham, fake elections, and when Egyptian citizens ridicule tyrants, those tyrants do not punish them. The other type of tyrants are the Pharaonic ones who commit the sin of self-deification and force people to applaud and praise them; those tyrants who imitate Moses' Pharaoh are never satisfied by the silence of people; for them, people must be forced to declare their 'loyalty' and applaud all speeches and decisions however contradictory or so many they are, or else, those who refuse to applaud will be incarcerated and tortured in prisons. This type of Pharaonic self-deified tyrants is exemplified by Saddam Hussein and Kaddafi. This type includes this young man the Saudi crown-prince who has taken decisions to destroy Yemen and to siege Qatar, and those who refuse to support such evil decision have been imprisoned. Hence, those inside the KSA who are reluctant to support the crown-prince in the topic of the so-called 'moderate Islam' will suffer veritable hell in Saudi prisons.        

4- Thus, the stance of Ibn Salman reminds us of that of Moses' Pharaoh who was too arrogant and haughty to allow the Israelites to leave Egypt to flee his tyranny and oppression, and he chased them till he and his retinue members and statesmen drowned in the Red Sea. Any tyrants who follow the footsteps of Moses' Pharaoh will be killed inevitably; the fate of Saddam Hussein and Kaddafi serves also as a constant reminder of this fact. Would Ibn Salman take heed of this warning?! Or does his so-called 'moderate Islam' make him immune to that fate?!  

5- M. Ibn Salman was never known before his father was enthroned as the Saudi king. The well-known stars of the Saudi household were sons of Fahd, Feisal, Abdullah, and Nayef who led the processions filled with hypocrites who applaud their steps all the time. Suddenly, Ibn Salman has emerged as the deputy crown-prince and then the crown-prince, and soon enough, his hidden 'genius' has appeared in the media, and his imminent enthronement as king is ushered by sieging Qatar with other countries which form an alliance with the KSA. Such extreme measures of sieging Qatar seemed as if the last step before waging an all-out war, and some people held their breath in anticipation. Yet, with the passage of time, the siege goes on falteringly and the Saudi crown-prince cannot dare to wage war on Qatar and feel too embarrassed to stop the siege. This is an unprecedented political failure; Qatar has won and Ibn Salman has lost, and he has punished those who never applauded his loss and failure. The same can be said about the war in Yemen; Ibn Salman has managed to bring total destruction to the infrastructure of Yemen and to inflict the most evil harms on Yemenis; yet, this is a lost war and may bring the downfall of the Saudi crown-prince. But who dares to say to Ibn Salman that has been in the wrong or to warn him by telling him to fear the Lord God in piety? The Saudi clergymen of the Al-Sheikh family members cannot do this; the eldest among them said that it is utter disbelief and apostasy to criticize the rulers!   

6- The self-deified Ibn Salman has suddenly decided to change the religion of his Wahabi kingdom from the so-called 'extremist Islam' to the so-called 'moderate Islam'. It is he who made this decision singlehandedly on behalf of more than 30 million people who live inside the KSA. No one took their opinion of the religion he has chosen for them! 

7- This way, the self-deified Ibn Salman raises himself above the stature of Almighty God. In fact, God grants to all human beings the freedom to (dis)believe and to (dis)obey; God says in the Quran: "And say, "The truth is from your Lord. Whoever wills-let him believe...." (18:29). In contrast, the young man Ibn Salman (who is 32 years old) confiscates the freedom of those who live inside his Saudi kingdom, even their religious freedom to choose their own religion. Ibn Salman follow the mentality and footsteps of Moses' Pharaoh who said to his people: "..."I do not show you except what I see, and I do not lead you except to the path of guidance." (40:29). The haughty self-deified tyrant, Moses' Pharaoh, was drowned and destroyed by God; would Ibn Salman take heed of this warning?! Or does his so-called 'moderate Islam' make him immune to that fate?!       

8- Ibn Salman never thinks for a moment that those who live in his Saudi kingdom have the right to question him about his deeds. Real Islam, never known by Ibn Salman, asserts that God is the Only One never to be questioned about His deeds, unlike the case with all human beings: "If there were in them gods other than God, they would have gone to ruin. So glory be to God, Lord of the Throne, beyond what they ascribe to Him. He will not be questioned about what He does, but they will be questioned." (21:22-23).

9- Would anyone inside the Saudi kingdom of Ibn Salman dare to question Ibn Salman?! This would be like committing suicide. This unwritten Saudi law contradicts real Islam: rulers and sheikhs know best. This law means that it is a grave crime to warn, advise, or preach Saudi rulers or to say to them to fear the Lord God in piety. Let us remember that the opposition movements within the last decades of the 20th century have begun with (the memo of advice), and at the time, king Fahd, his brother Salman, at the time prince of Riyadh, and his brother Nayef, the Interior Minister at the time, considered this memo of advice as a heinous crime tantamount to high treason! This lead to arrest waves of opposition figures who have been tortured in prisons, while opposition leaders such as Al-Masaary and Al-Faqeeh fled to the UK. This is the religious Wahabi culture taught to the Saudi crown-prince.       

10- This horrid Saudi culture is the source of this illogical notion of 'moderate Islam'. Real Islam knows no medial, in-between position regarding the testimony of (There is no God but Allah). The Saudi Wahabi religion practiced in the KSA deifies rulers as deities above God Himself. We refer readers to our article titled "The Testimony of the Privately Owned Religion of the Saudi Wahabism: (There Is No God but the Saudi King" (found in English on this link: http://www.ahl-alquran.com/English/show_article.php?main_id=16787). This is moderation in religion inside the Saudi kingdom: they create deities alongside with God: the list of these gods include the Saudi kings, the founder of the KSA, Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud, and all saints/gods of the Sunnite religion, including the four pre-Umayyad caliphs, the so-called companions, and imams of hadiths like Al-Bokhary, Ibn Hanbal, Ibn Taymiyya, Ibn Al-Qayyim, and Ibn Abdul-Wahab, and they may add their master Mr. Donald Trump to this list of deities!

11- Thus, for the Saudi rulers and their cronies, no percentage of deification is left at all to be dedicated to the Dominant, Almighty Lord God!

 LASTLY: May God curse all the unjust ones!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

CHAPTER II: The Holy Quran and the Destruction of the Al-Saud Family

"Those Who Committed Excesses in the Lands" (Quran 89:11)

 

Firstly: "Your Lord is on the lookout." (89:14):

1- Within the following verses, we read about God smiting and destroying the corrupt ones and tyrants in ancient history: "Those who committed excesses in the lands. And spread much corruption therein. So your Lord poured down upon them a scourge of torment. Your Lord is on the lookout." (89:11-14). This means that a similar destruction inflicted by God is the fate of all those who follow the footsteps of tyrannical and corrupt ones, because our Lord God is on the lookout.

2- This question persists: why the corrupt ones and tyrants never take heed of the fate of the ancient nations of the unjust ones? All tyrannical rulers should remember that thrones are transient and move from one person to another: "...Such days We alternate between the people..." (3:140); the Only Eternal Sovereign is God. Tyrants stick to their thrones and forget that they are mortals and commit the same tyranny and corruption like those before them, until they collapse and remember God after it is too late. God on the Last Day will say the following to the corrupt ones and tyrants: "And you inhabited the homes of those who wronged themselves, and it became clear to you how We dealt with them, and We cited for you the examples." (14:45). This figuratively means that the corrupt ones and tyrants lived within the same climate or ambiance of corruption and tyranny of others before them. In fact, recent tyrants typically live in palaces of dead or former tyrants as we see in modern times now; the royal palaces receive successors of kings and palaces of republic countries receive presidents who practice the same injustice, corruption, and tyranny, even if they have raised the banners of justice before assuming their posts or revolted against former tyrants.   

3- This question persists: why kings and presidents lose their reasonable minds once they are enthroned? The answer is as follows: absolute power make them steal and hoard huge amounts of wealth and confiscate money and assets of others under the pretext of combating corruption. Tyrants typically get rid of those who helped them on their way to the throne so as not to share their authority and power with anyone, and they establish new loyal cronies for themselves who hypocritical flatter them and blindly obey them. Thus, tyrants create new adversaries, enemies, and foes for themselves and feel frightened and extremely anxious, and this leads them to torture, persecute, and imprison more people within a vicious circle of fear, anxiety, violence, and corruption. Nightmares haunt tyrants and drive them to be more unjust and tyrannical; they have no time to look back and revoke their injustice. Tyrants who succeed them to thrones practice the same injustice, corruption, and tyranny and might imprison and humiliate former tyrants and take away their wealth. Thus, this is the revenge against tyrants: "Your Lord is on the lookout." (89:14).   

 

Secondly: the Saudi royal family members and spreading corruption worldwide:

1- To explain how the Saudi royal family members have helped spread corruption worldwide will take many volumes and tomes. It is enough here to remind our readers that this Saudi family owns a country, a nation, and the lands while controlling all sources of wealth and money, while disregarding the real owners of the lands (i.e., Arabian people) who have existed before the Saudi family has emerged. The Saudi family justifies its corruption and crimes by the Wahabi religion and imposing on people the lie that Wahabism is Islam. This lie is the basis of the first and second Saudi states that collapsed; the third, current Saudi state is on the verge of imminent collapse – in case no real religious and political reform is introduced immediately.  

2- The first Saudi state that ended in 1818 spread corruption all over Arabia: massacres, looting, sabotage, and repelling people away from the Quran and the Sacred Kaaba Mosque. the third, current Saudi state confiscates oil revenues that should have for the Arabian people. Such huge oil revenues turned the Saudi kingdom into an 'important' country because it buys anything with money; hence, its corruption reached most regions in planet Earth within the era of globalization. By spreading the lie that Wahabism is Islam, the Saudi family members spread massacres and bloodbaths among innocent civilians worldwide within Wahabi jihad of terrorism. The Saudi financing bought and murdered rulers, manipulated and controlled some other rulers, waged wars, destroyed countries, and persecuted and killed some reformist thinkers and preachers of reform and justice. We provide some details in the points below.    

 

Thirdly: some features of the Saudi corruption worldwide:

1- The Saudi family murdered Mr. Nasser Al-Saeed, the peaceful activist who advocated justice, freedom, and reform inside Arabia.

2- Nationalism of the Egyptian President Gamal Abdel-Nasser posed a veritable threat to Saudi Wahabism and endangered the existence of the Saudi kingdom itself. The Saudi family had to get rid of him by tempting him within a war in Yemen in the 1960s that weakened the Egyptian armed forces that were defeated by Israel in 1967 within the Six-Day War. The loss of Sinai ended the legend of Abdel-Nasser and he lost his stature; within the Khartoum conference, Abdel-Nasser became submissive to the Saudi king Feisal, who forced Abdel-Nasser to appoint Sadat (an agent subservient to the Saudis) as a vice-president. Within another conference in 1970 for the sake of Palestine, Abdel-Nasser was very active, and he died mysteriously after drinking a cup of juice. King Feisal had plotted the murder of Nasser by poison. Sadat became president and made Egypt subordinate and submissive to the KSA and the USA. When Sadat became a source of trouble to the Americans and the Saudis, another conspiracy was plotted to assassinate him (using the Wahabi MB terrorists) in 1981. This conspiracy involved the vice-president, Mubarak, who succeeded Sadat, but he learned a lesson and never appointed a vice-president. In fact, Mubarak kneeled before the USA and prostrated before the KSA, and so did other presidents who have come after him.     

3- Within the Mubarak era, the Saudi authorities planned to incite Mubarak to incarcerate our person: we mention this story for the sake of history, as we are one of the witnesses of that era. The relations between Egypt and the KSA were severed because of Sadat, and the Saudi king Khaled was keen to please Saddam Hussein in Iraq who hated Sadat for the Camp David Accords in 1978 and king Khaled severed relations and diplomatic ties with Egypt in 1979. When Sadat attacked the KSA verbally in his speeches, the Saudi king planned his assassination which took place in 1981. Mubarak did his best to please the KSA; when he attended the funeral of king Khaled in 1982 without proper invitation, he was treated with disrespect. Our own struggle against Wahabism inside Al-Azhar University has commenced in 1985 till we left our post as professor in 1987. At the time, we used to know Dr. Youssef Wali the Minister of agriculture who understood our stances and hated Wahabism in Egypt. When Dr. Wali talked about our person to Mubarak to help and support our person, Mubarak was keen on pleasing the KSA by incarcerating our person! Sheikhs of Al-Azhar were typically in constant contact with the Wahabi sheikhs inside the KSA. The agent of the KSA Zia-ul-Haq was president of Pakistan and he spread Wahabism there by the 'Islamic' University in Islamabad. Within a conference in Islamabad in 1987, the KSA made its Wahabi sheikhs (and Azharite sheikhs) attend this conference to discuss and refute our own book titled "Prophets in the Holy Quran" and to discuss and praise a book titled "Stories of Prophets" authored by one of our foes: the former head of Al-Azhar Dr. M. Al-Tayyib Al-Najjar. This conference declared our person as an 'infidel' and an 'apostate' who deserved to be put to death and gave a prize to Dr. Al-Najjar. The decisions of such a conference and those of another conference in Jeddah held by the Muslim World League made Mubarak incarcerate our person, Dr. A. S. Mansour, to please and to get closer to the KSA! When we were imprisoned, we read in the newspapers Dr. Wali was silenced regarding our person as Saudi agricultural investments and projects in Egypt thrived! We were imprisoned in Nov. 1987; this was exactly thirty years ago. When the KSA and Egypt resumed close ties and normalized relations. The greedy thief Mubarak got too many Saudi bribes and he coveted more. Mubarak used the emergency law and his post as a military present to incarcerate Quranists in Egypt within many waves; we fled the second wave of arrests as we arrived in the USA in 2001 and sought and was granted political asylum. We kept attacking the KSA and Wahabism within our website ahl-alquran.com and our VA-based IQC. This drove the Saudi family to incite Mubarak to arrest our relatives in Egypt within three waves of arrest in 2007, 2009, and 2015. Officers of the Egyptian State Security Apparatus who incarcerated our relatives enjoyed the best and most expensive meals as bribes to harm, humiliate, and torture our incarcerated relatives, while cursing and verbally abusing our person! The Saudi money has spoiled the military rule in Egypt and aborted the 2011 uprising/revolt. Wahabism has dwarfed Egypt and its stature worldwide and in the Arab world. The Saudi Wahabism has infiltrated Al-Azhar, media, education, elite thinkers, and most Egyptian citizens. Liberalism in Egypt that existed since the era of Khedive Ismail and brought about the reform of M. Abdou, head of Al-Azhar who died in 1905, vanished since the 1970s; if it were to exist until now, this would have saved Egypt and the whole world from Wahabi corruption. Egyptian Wahabis (the terrorist MB members and Salafists as well as Azharite sheikhs) and all their overt and secret organizations helped spread the Saudi Wahabism worldwide!                 

4- In Pakistan, the KSA plotted a conspiracy to remove the secular an Shiite prime minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto of Pakistan by inciting the Wahabi masses in Pakistan to protest within demonstrations against his secular tendencies. The KSA helped the general Zia-ul-Haq to turn against Bhutto and to sentence him to death by framing him within a court trial. When the international public opinion protested and called for saving the 51-year-old Bhutto, but Zia-ul-Haq assassinated him in his prison cell using a sword made of gold that was a gift to Zia-ul-Haq from the KSA. Pakistan never knew any stability ever since and its sham democracy within the military rule deceives no one. Zia-ul-Haq was assassinated in 1988 as a bomb exploded in his airplane, and Benazir Bhutto was assassinated in 2007. Pakistan suffers political turmoil, poverty, and backwardness within the Wahabi obscurantism; Wahabi sheikhs and military leaders control everything in Pakistan, in contrast to the secular India whose citizens enjoy religious freedom.  

5- The Saudi corruption and Wahabism spread in Afghanistan within the help of the USA, as the Americans aimed to fight the soviets there using the Wahabi jihadists mobilized and financed by the KSA. When the communist rule ended in Afghanistan, the country has entered into the vicious circle of civil strife. In fact, Afghanistan and the whole world pay the heavy price of the Saudi corruption that led to the emergence of the terrorist MB, Al-Qaeda, and ISIS. Hence, Wahabism is a vicious tree that must be uprooted so that the whole world would be better and establish international peace.   

6- The scenario that occurred in Pakistan by the KSA has been repeated in Sudan; the elections made the cultured democratic man, Al-Sadiq Al-Mahdi become the prime minister in 1986 and a coup d'état by the agent of the KSA, Omar Al-Bashir, removed the prime minister in 1989 and Al-Bashir is the president now; this Wahabi agent of the KSA caused the creation of the new country South Sudan, and civil strife fueled by Wahabi extremism made millions of Sudanese citizens lose their lives. Massacres of Al-Bashir in Darfur made him in 2008 as a wanted criminal that must stand before the International Criminal Court.    

7- The Saudi Wahabi corruption has destroyed the stability of Yemen and manipulated presidents Abdulla Saleh and Mansour Hady. The Saudi Wahabi corruption destroyed Iraq and Syria. As the collapse of ISIS is imminent now, the Saudi scheme aimed to incite the Kurds to attempt to establish an independent state so that civil strife would break out again in Iraq, but international powers stopped such Saudi conspiracy. The Saudi Wahabi corruption aims at weakening all countries near the KSA; this is why the Saudis are keen to create troubles for Iran and Shiites in Yemen, Lebanon, and Syria. The Saudi Wahabi corruption creates more trouble in Libya, Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco, Mali, Chad, Somalia, and Nigeria. The Saudi Wahabi corruption spread insidiously with great success in the West countries and the USA.   

8- The democratic Europe which is based on transparency has never been immune against the infiltration of the Saudi Wahabi corruption. Angela Merkel of Germany stands against this Saudi Wahabi corruption now, in contrast to the British prime minister, Theresa May, who has fallen into the trap of the Saudi Wahabi corruption like Tony Blair before her. We personally never forget the fact that the Saudi lobby in Washington that opposes Quranism propagated by our IQC and website and imposes media blackout on our person, thus leading American leaders to disregard our person, though Quranism is the solution in the intellectual war of ideas against Wahabi ideology of terrorism.

 

LASTLY: Having written the above points, we cannot help but to remember and ponder deeply on this Quranic verse: "Your Lord is on the lookout." (89:14).

 

 

The Holy Quran and the Destruction of the Al-Saud Family

 

Firstly: a summary of the Quranic rules of smiting and destruction of nations, countries, and states:

1- These rules are valid and applicable before and after the descent/revelation of the Quran; thus, they can apply to Al-Saud royal family: "How many generations have We destroyed after Noah? Your Lord is sufficient as Knower and Beholder of the sins of His servants." (17:17); "How many a guilty town have We crushed, and established thereafter another people?" (21:11); "There is no city but We will destroy before the Day of Resurrection, or punish it with a severe torment. This is inscribed in the Book." (17:58).  

2- Injustice is the reason for destroying these nations: "Your Lord would never destroy the towns unjustly, while their inhabitants are seeking reform." (11:117).

3- This injustice is embodied when an affluent minority confiscates and monopolizes wealth, power, and authority, in contrast to impoverished, deprived, and impecunious vast majority of citizens. The members of the affluent class compete with one another in building grand richly furnished palaces, whereas the impoverished vast majority suffers lack of basic facilities, and this is the image of grave injustice portrayed in this verse about destroyed nations: "How many a town have We destroyed while it was committing injustice? They lie in ruins; with stilled wells, and lofty palaces." (22:45).  

4- This minority class of the affluent ones is commanded by God to adhere to justice, but it stubbornly refuses reform and increases its injustices and sins until their nation is destroyed by God: "When We decide to destroy a town, We command its affluent ones, they transgress in it, so the word becomes justified against it, and We destroy it completely." (17:16). Thus, they are destroyed because of rejecting reform and upholding justice: "Never did We destroy a town, but it had warners. As a reminder - We are never unjust." (26:208-209); "Your Lord would never destroy the towns unjustly, while their inhabitants are seeking reform." (11:117).

5- Typically, the affluent, corrupt ones insist on keeping the status quo and to stick to inherited conditions that have enabled them to monopolize wealth, power, and authority: "If only there were, among the generations before you, people with wisdom, who spoke against corruption on Earth - except for the few whom We saved. But the unjust ones pursued the luxuries they were indulged in, and thus became criminals." (11:116).

6- The affluent ones make the traditions and inherited notions and conditions as part of their earthly religion because this way, they protect their financial interests, high social stature, and political influence and power; this is why they reject the celestial messages of God and stick to traditions of their forefathers. This habit is repeated in history of ancient nations before the Quran and it persists in the eras after the descent/revelation of the Quran: "But they say, "We found our forefathers on a course of an Umma, and we are guided in their footsteps." Likewise, We sent no warner before you to any town, but the affluent among them said, "We found our forefathers on a course of an Umma, and we are following in their footsteps."" (43:22-25).

7- Such centuries-old inherited falsehoods and traditions are deemed as tenets of the earthly religion because sinners among the unjust, affluent ones assume wrongly that they will enter into Paradise through myths of intercession of saints/deities and indulgences; thus, they disbelieve in the Last Day that is based on Absolute Divine Justice. They have fashioned a last day that is a jest serving their whims and tailored as per their tastes by imagining they will enter into Paradise and avoid Hell however sinful, corrupt, disbelieving, and unjust they have been on Earth: "We sent no warner to any town, without its affluent ones saying, "We reject what you are sent with." And they say, "We have more wealth and more children, and we will not be tormented."" (34:34-35).   

8- God describes the moments when the unjust, corrupt nations of ancient eras were destroyed and tormented in this world: "Then, when they sensed Our might, they started running away from it. Do not run, but come back to your luxuries, and to your homes, that you may be questioned. They said, "Woe to us; we were unjust!" This continued to be their cry, until We made them silent ashes." (21:12-15).

 

Secondly: how these Quranic rules apply to Al-Saud family in our era now:

1- The Al-Saud family did not practice extravagance or lead an affluent, luxurious lifestyle in the first and second Saudi states; they were well-off but their affluent lifestyle began only after the soaring oil prices after the 1973 war. This radical change transformed the Al-Saud family from the Bedouin simplicity to affluence and extravagance without any gradual stages of civilization. Bill Gates and other billionaires in the West who have formed their wealth with hard work lead a simple lifestyle. In contrast, Al-Saud family members spend extravagantly on their luxuries from the oil revenues that come easily and should have belonged to the inhabitants of Al-Ahsa region. This is the corrupt and corrupting affluence that will bring about God's destruction to the Saudi kingdom.      

2- The Saudi affluent ones include retinue members who serve the royal family; this is in contrast to the vast majority of citizens who live in poverty. There is a thin, weak layer of middle-class members who do not own the houses they live in. The extremist Wahabi sharia laws torment the Arabian nation as they are imposed forcibly on them and they never reach beyond the walls of palaces of the affluent ones!   

3- The Al-Saud family members own countless luxurious palaces, yachts, and planes inside and outside the Saudi kingdom, whereas Jeddah drowns annually in sewerage water and rain. This means that facilities provided for the poor ones are dilapidated, whereas facilities and electricity are provided for free for palaces of the affluent ones. Poverty spreads all over the Saudi kingdom, and silence is imposed on this fact. The West media is filled with stories, which make the West people flabbergasted, of palaces, luxuries, expenditures, and journeys of Al-Saud princes outside the Saudi kingdom and how they spend money without limits. The West people do not realize how these princes moved suddenly from Bedouin lifestyle to an extreme form of affluence and how Wahabi clergymen justify their crimes and dance in their processions.            

4- Among the miracles of the Quran is that the Quranic rules for destroying unjust nations apply exactly to Al-Saud family – their destruction is imminent if they do not apply reform soon enough. Details of this fills many volumes; suffice it here that we mention the huge abyss between the poverty of the vast majority and the wealth of the affluent ones inside the Saudi kingdom.

 

Thirdly: the affluent Al-Saud family members and the confiscation and monopoly of wealth:

1- WikiLeaks documents mention that the wealth of the Al-Saud family members is more than one trillion US$, and this is about the double of the GNP of the Saudi kingdom (600 billion US$). The oil revenues are confiscated by only six Saudi princes, and the Treasury of the Saudi State provides monthly salaries of the royal family members and spends 40 billion US$ annually on their marriages and building their palaces (and all facilities)

2- The Al-Saud family members as conquerors who annexed regions of Arabia assume that they have the 'right' to own all lands inside the Saudi kingdom, even if these lands are owned by some citizens. It often happens that a Saudi prince would confiscate stretches of land and provide facilities to them for free (as part of governmental facilities) and then sell these stretches of land in return for exorbitant prices. The crown-prince, Ibn Salman, has confiscated a 160 million km2 stretch of land. Most Saudi princes have earned their wealth through dishonest means and corruption by confiscating stretches of land owned by the poor and to sell them to the Saudi government in return for exorbitant prices! This is why universities professors and any middle-class members do not own stretches of land or houses. In fact, 80% of Saudis do not own their houses. Some Saudi princes borrow millions from Saudi banks and never settle such debts; they consider such money as their part of their 'right' to own the Saudi kingdom! In 1966, 10 billion US$ disappeared mysteriously from the Saudi state budget without being registered or recorded! This is not to mention bribes taken by Saudi princes in deals of selling weapons. These bribes reach 35% of the prices of such weapons. 

3- The amounts of money of old Saudi princes are not known except after their death when their sons dispute over the inheritance shares. For instance, the whole world was surprised to know that the wealth of the late prince Mashal Ibn Abdul-Aziz reached trillion and 430 billion SR, distributed among his two wives and seven sons. The late prince Sultan Ibn Abdul-Aziz was 'poor' when he died; his wealth reached only 270 billion US$! The late king Abdullah was even 'poorer', as his wealth reached only 21 billion US$ As per Forbes Magazine. The wealth of the late king Fahd (1982 - 2005) reached 190 billion US$, in addition to assets, shares, companies, buildings, palaces, etc. King Salman is rumored to have only 18 billion US$! The real wealth is never known except when king Salman dies and the inheritance shares are distributed.      

4- The sons of kings and old princes compete for hoarding more wealth; M. Ibn Nayef has 16 bank accounts in Switzerland and there is 4 billion US$ in his HSBC bank account in Geneva. The wealth of Abdul-Aziz Ibn Fahd has reached 100 billion SR and rumors have it that the real number is 10 billion US$! Each of the sons of the late king Fahd has inherited about 20 billion US$! We wonder about the amount of wealth of the former Saudi ambassador in Washington, prince Bandar Ibn Sultan, who has made several deals to buy weapons!  

 

Fourthly: the poverty and impecuniousness of the vast majority inside the Saudi kingdom:

1- About unemployment in Saudi Arabia, the WORLD FACTBOOK of the CIA mentions that the Saudi kingdom is no. 85 in the list of countries in terms of unemployment rates. The last Saudi official percentage of unemployment is 10.9%     

2- The Guardian and Washington Post have published a report about the riches of the Saudi kingdom that hide the ascending problem of poverty, as oil revenues are confiscated by the Saudi royal family members while more than one-quarter of Saudi citizens live in abject poverty. The report mentions a woman who live in a garbage dump few kilometers away from a spacious mall in Riyadh, and she is jobless and has no money, but she has five children below the age of 14 and a chronically ill jobless husband. This means that initiatives of employing Saudi citizens and to provide subsidies for them failed; the Saudi population has increased from 6 million in 1970 to 28 million now.   

3- The Saudi authorities hide and deny that poverty exists inside the Saudi kingdom. For instance, in 2011, three bloggers were imprisoned for two weeks because they have uploaded their movie about poverty inside Saudi Arabia. A female university professor writes about impoverishment and development inside the Saudi kingdom, asserting that the Saudi authorities intentionally hide images, movies, and footages about the poor and that the affluent elite members never care about the hungry citizens. There are estimations that at least 4 million Saudi citizens live on less than 530 US$ per month; this is less than 17 US$ per week, and this is the poverty line inside the Saudi kingdom. Unemployment and poverty rates increase every year exponentially, especially among the young people. More than two-thirds of Saudis are less than 30 years old, and three quarters of them are unemployed, as per official governmental statistics.   

4- The UN asserts that there is 70 thousand persons inside the Saudi kingdom considered as (Bidoon); i.e., stateless persons, a social class of people who never received the Saudi nationality, and thus deprived of citizenship rights. Most of the Bidoon persons are among Bedouin tribes who live in areas that used to be parts of several countries; such vague legal conditions make it difficult for them to get governmental subsidies.  

5- King Salman has paid hundreds of US$ billions to please (and appease) the American president. This has caused a huge deficit in the budget of the Saudi kingdom, making its economy on the verge of collapse. This lead the Saudi authorities to impose exorbitant fees on extensions of stay for foreign workers and to inflict austerity measures and policies on the suffering Saudis to reduce the budget deficit. Such policies are never imposed on the Saudi royal family members, who are thousands of persons who spend extravagantly and live luxuriously.        

6- This is about the wide abyss between the affluent ones and the impoverished ones inside the Saudi kingdom. But what about the sins and immorality of the affluent ones? We tackle this topic in our next article. 

 

The Extravagance of the Saudi Royal Family Members as the Harbinger of Imminent Destruction

 

Introduction:

1- Did king Salman and his son, the crown-prince, and the rest of the Al-Saud family read the Quranic verses that talk about extravagance and spendthrifts and their fate in Hell? The answer is of course not. Wahabi clergymen inside the Saudi kingdom never know or read these verses, of course. Let us assert some Quranic facts in the points below to preach and warn them.

2- God commands moderation in spending money and prohibits extravagance and squandering of money earned by legal means, as God does not like spendthrifts: "And those who, when they spend, are neither wasteful nor stingy, but choose a middle course between that." (25:67); "And give the relative his rights, and the poor, and the wayfarer, and do not squander wastefully. The extravagant are brethren of the devils, and the devil is ever ungrateful to his Lord." (17:26-27); "...and do not waste. He does not love the wasteful." (6:141); "...and eat and drink, but do not be excessive. He does not love the excessive." (7:31). Thus, real believers do not commit sins excessively, as they readily repent; in contrast, disobedient sinners who are addicted to sins, extravagance, promiscuity, etc. make it part of their religion; this has been the state of affluent nations destroyed by the Lord God because of excessive sins and disobedience that went to extremes.    

3- The tribesmen of Thamood was destroyed by God and their prophet, Saleh, told them the following: "So fear God, and obey me. And do not obey the command of the extravagant. Who spread corruption on Earth, and do not reform."" (26:150-152). The people of prophet Lot were destroyed because of their homosexual practices deemed as hateful excesses and a type of extravagance that transgresses the limits: ""You lust after men rather than women. You are an excessive people."" (7:81); "To unleash upon them rocks of clay. Marked with fire by your Lord for the excessive. We evacuated all the believers who were in it. But found in it only one household of Muslims. And We left in it a sign for those who fear the painful torment." (51:33-37). Moses' Pharaoh was destroyed by God because he was a self-deified, haughty, and arrogant mortal among those who committed many excesses and acts of extravagance: "Pharaoh was high and mighty on Earth. He was excessively tyrannical." (10:83); "And We delivered the Israelites from the humiliating persecution. From Pharaoh. He was a transgressing tyrant." (44:30-31).

4- God wants Quran-believing people to take heed and be warned by the fate of destroyed nations who committed excesses and were extravagant: "Whenever adversity touches the human being, he prays to Us - reclining on his side, or sitting, or standing. But when We have relieved his adversity from him, he goes away, as though he had never called on Us for trouble that had afflicted him. Thus the deeds of the extravagant appear good to them. We destroyed generations before you when they did wrong. Their messengers came to them with clear signs, but they would not believe. Thus We requite the sinful people. Then We made you successors on earth after them, to see how you would behave." (10:12-14); "Then We fulfilled Our promise to them, and We saved them together with whomever We willed, and We destroyed the extravagant ones. We have sent down to you a Book, containing your message. Do you not understand? How many a guilty town have We crushed, and established thereafter another people? Then, when they sensed Our might, they started running away from it. Do not run, but come back to your luxuries, and to your homes, that you may be questioned. They said, "Woe to us; we were unfair." This continued to be their cry, until We made them silent ashes." (21:9-15).

5- The Al-Saud royal family member are addicted to extravagance and all types of excesses; this asserts their denying the Quran in which they disbelieve. In fact, the very affluent ones who monopolize wealth (countless US$ billions) must be spendthrifts, especially that they never earned such wealth legally; their money is stolen from original inhabitants of Arabia who are tortured in prison cells in case they protest. In the points below, we quote from many websites pieces of information and news about the extravagance of the Al-Saud family members.    

 

Firstly: the extravagance of king Salman:

1- Reaching his senile age, and being heedless of the heart attack he has survived, Salman is addicted to extravagance and luxuries of life. In fact, he owns tens of apartments (bought in return for more than 35 thousand US$) in arrondisement no. 16 in Paris and a luxurious palace in Côte d'Azur in France, and a similar palace in Costa del Sol, Marbella, Spain. Salman owns several luxurious palaces inside the Saudi kingdom by the Red Sea and by the Persian Gulf and other palaces scattered in the Arabian desert. Yet, Salam has preferred his sea resort in Tangier. The Panama documents assert that Salman bought many companies in Luxembourg and Virgin Islands in the UK. Salman bought many mansions and yachts in London in return for millions of US$, and one of these mansions is located near Hyde Park in Mayfair. Salman has granted his son, the crown-prince, all authorities; e.g., supervising the defense ministry, the ARAMCO company, and the economic affairs council. The sons of Salman have received 100 billion US$ and the crown-prince receives the oil revenues of selling two million oil barrel per day.             

2- New York Times in January 2017 mentions that the spacious palace of king Salman in Morocco at the Atlantic coast stands behind high walls filled with webcams and guarded by Moroccan soldiers, within the time when austerity measures inside the Saudi kingdom have led to cancelation of many projects that cost one-quarter of a trillion US$. Runways were built inside this palace as well as a huge tent (like tents of circuses) to receive the king and his guests and retinue members who were so many. Salman presides over all trade activities of the Saudi royal family members, informally and unofficially known as Al-Saud and Co. In fact, the plummeted oil prices have led to the worse economic conditions that may force the Saudi royal family members to lessen their extravagance; yet, the dissent prince Khaled Ibn Farhan Al-Saud, who lives in Germany, asserts that Saudi citizens have less money than ever, while the Saudi royal family members continue their extravagance more than ever; more sums of money are never mentioned in the Saudi state budget, as per commands of king Salman. To face the budgetary deficit, the Saudi government has lessened salaries of employees in the public sector, removed some subsidies, and raised bills of water supply and electricity, and raised prices of fuel. The Saudi kingdom is now borrowing money from banks inside and outside the kingdom and stopped employing new people in governmental posts; this has caused frustration among the unemployed youth.         

3- The Bloomberg website mentions in Oct. 2017 that when the 81-year-old king Salman visited the Russian capital, Moscow, for four days, he commanded a daily plane to bring food enough for 1500 persons who accompanied him there, and he has an electric ladder made of gold to bring him from and to his private plane, with private carpets. It was funny that the electric ladder of his plane stopped working and he had to walk down from the plane upon his arrival. The procession of cars of Salman moved to downtown, guarded by Russian police forces. A plane shuttled daily between Riyadh and Moscow to bring victuals (about 800 kilograms of food!) and other needed items. In the Four Seasons Hotel, king Salman as well as his royal guests has replaced employees with his own servants and he brought his own furniture. The Saudi authorities reserved two hotels at such an event: the Four Seasons and Ritz-Carlton, in return for 3 million US$ apart from the cost of food, spas, and other services, and forced guests to cancel their reservations and to move to other distant hotels. Representatives of the Four Seasons and Ritz-Carlton refused to comment on such effrontery as people felt offended. The Russian Sputnik News has mentioned that the king and his retinue members will reside in five-star hotels near the Kremlin and the Red Square, after changing furniture to cater for Arabian taste, and no one would be allowed to reserve a room in these hotels.     

4- When king Salman visited the south of France in July 2015 for three weeks, this visit made a lot of ink flow as French media protested the fact that Salman monopolized the sanded beach commonly used by thousands of the middle-class French citizens at this time of year in Côte d'Azur, with 500 persons as his retinue members, servant, chauffeurs, tour guides, etc. The Saudi embassy in France reserved (and paid the bills in advance) four hotels in Cannes, Nice, Monaco, and Saint Tropez for the retinue members. The Vallauris municipality prevented king Salman from installing an electric ladder to allow him to reach the beach from his palace, but the French government managed to please Salman and angry French citizens protested and reminded the government of the principle of equality for all citizens, as per the constitution, and that France should never kneel down to some foreign rich men at the expense of French citizens.      

5- The New York Times mentions in 2016 that the crown-prince, Ibn Salman, has bought, during his visit to the French Riviera, a yacht from the Russian billionaire Yuri Scheffler in return to 500 million euro, though the actual cost of this yacht is 33 million US$.  

 

Secondly: the extravagance of king Fahd and other members of the Al-Saud royal family:

1- The late king Fahd used to specify one billion SR for each of the journeys of his son Abdul-Aziz, and any sums never spent by his son were confiscated by king Fahd.

2- Al-Waqt website has mentioned in 1437 A.H./ 2015 A.D. that extravagance of the Al-Saud family members exposes their false claims of applying 'Islamic' sharia laws inside the Saudi kingdom. Al-Waqt website published photos of huge amounts of meat thrown in the garbage bins of palaces of the affluent ones among the royal family members and their retinue members who held daily banquets. CNN Turkey mentions that the Saudi prince Nawaf Ibn Abdul-Aziz has rented a luxurious 85-meter-long yacht during his summer vacation in Turkey, while his parties of promiscuity and dancing cost 5 thousand euros a day in a fancy restaurant. Many Saudi princes rent luxurious yachts more often than not, using British pseudonyms. The Hespress Moroccan news website mentions that king Salman would arrive with a large party o his family members to celebrate the wedding of one of his sons in Tangier, while reserving all hotels there, after he enjoyed his stay in Morocco after he left the French Riviera. Many Saudi citizens expressed their criticism of extravagance and excesses of the Saudi royal family, asserting that more than 75 tons of rice are being wasted annually and more than 16 million meals, making the Saudi kingdom on top of the list of countries that cause the biggest amounts of wasted food.       

3- The Daily Standard mentions that the Saudi royal family plans to build a lofty mansion with the total cost of 50 million sterling (i.e., 81 million US$) by demolishing three buildings in Belgravia district in London, with 50 bedrooms and underground indoor swimming pools, rooms for servants, spacious garage for limousines, elevators, sports hall, and storehouse for valuable items and treasures.   

4- The Saudi royal family members' extravagance knows no limits in the West countries and their resorts, shopping malls, casinos, and hotels. It is enough to write in Google search engine the words (Saudi gambling and shopping), and one will get to know about millions of US$ being spent annually by the Saudi royal family members to enrich the economy of the West. A Saudi princess, for instance, bought an amount of chocolate in London in return for 3 million US$, and buying expensive brands of chocolate is now deemed as an annual 'holy' ritual for Saudi princes and princesses. Many Saudi princes donate sums of money for charity venues that care for fighting extinction of certain birds and worms and larger sums of money for sports clubs in the West. This is not to mention the shameful deals of buying weapons in return for billions of US$ before wars in Yemen and Syria, and most of such weapons are left to rust in storehouses inside Europe, the USA, and the Saudi kingdom itself. The Saudi government and the Gulf monarchies leave trillions of US$ in banks of the West, sums that can eliminate poverty, ignorance/illiteracy, and illnesses from the Arab world and other nations that suffer depletion of resources because of European colonialism.      

5- We quote from the 1994 article of France Press that the Saudi royal family members (over 10.000 prince and princesses) never stop limitless extravagance and luxurious life in times of debts and budgetary deficits. Under the surface of huge oil reserves, poverty in some Saudi cities show that radical economic and political changes may lead the Saudi kingdom to go bankrupt. From 1985 to 1993, the Saudi royal family members, and king Fahd, have spent 132 billion US$, a sum that exceeds oil revenues; no one else worldwide but the Saudi royal family members can commit such excesses.

6- Saudi princes in London drive fancy cars in gold by confiscating wealth of the Saudi citizens, and news of such cars in London streets caught the attention of media worldwide, as billions of US$ are confiscated by the Saudi royal family members from oil venues, that should have been enjoyed by Saudi citizens, under the auspices of corrupt Wahabi clergymen. The four cars in gold that roamed streets of London are owned by one Saudi prince, and their cost is estimated to be more than 1.8 million US$; one of the cars is a Lamborghini and another one is a Mercedes.

 

Lastly:

 Within Twitter, the Saudi opposition figure called Mujtahidd writes about the costs of the visit to Morocco by king Salman, along with 4000 retinue members and servants, while Saudi youths suffer poverty, frustration, and unemployment. Salman and his guests lived there luxuriously while leading a promiscuous lifestyle of extravagance beyond all limits imaginable. Each palace for Salman and the crown-prince, his son, in Morocco is like a village with all facilities, and each palace in Tangier has been built in return for one billion SR. The retinue members, high-rank royal officials, friends, and servants of Ibn Salman lived in many villas overlooking the sea in Tangier, and other not-so-close guests lived in all the rooms in seven hotels for 75 days! Thousands of Peugeot, Mercedes, Bentley, and Rolls-Royce cars were rented with chauffeurs ready 24 hours in shifts. This means that this journey of pleasure cost 50 million SR at least! This is tantamount to salaries of one year to 40 thousand soldiers inside the Saudi kingdom. This is without mentioning money spent in brothels and other sums to gamble and to buy drugs and wine, within parties of promiscuity. It was rumored that all sex workers in Morocco were sent to Tangier to get more money! Saudi citizens wondered about the reason of Ibn Salman having high-rank military leaders with him in Morocco while the war in Yemen has not ended yet. A letter from one of the male grandchildren of Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud warns against the dire consequences of extravagance that goes beyond all limits since Salman was enthroned, as 160 billion US$ were spent by the king and 100 billion US$ by his sons. This male grandson asserts further that there are sums of money stolen within the projects of widening the Kaaba Sacred Mosque and within deals to buy useless weapons; the annual budget includes that king Salman receives 50 million SR on a daily basis, or rather, this sum is given to whoever carries his royal stamp within any royal decree! The National Bank of king Salman contains 9 billion SR, a sum that increases daily as the crown-prince adds to it the revenues of selling two million oil barrels.

 

 

 

The Immorality and Promiscuity of the Saudi Royal Family Members

 

Introduction:

1- God says in the Quran: "When We decide to destroy a town, We command its affluent ones, they transgress in it, so the word becomes justified against it, and We destroy it completely." (17:16). This means that the affluent, corrupt ones who monopolize power, authority, and wealth are commanded by God to uphold justice, but they adamantly refuse and exceed all limits of sins, injustices, immorality, promiscuity, and corruption. This state of disobedience and defiance brings about their destruction. This divine rule is applied many times in the modern era; e.g., the Lebanese civil war lasted for 15 years (1975 - 1990).

2- Of course, it is part of our methodology as a thinker not to generalize; therefore, we do not generalize here about each and every members of the Saudi royal family. Generalization is very wrong and it never matches with the Quranic methodology; for instance, the Moses' Pharaoh family included one believing man and the Pharaoh's wife was a believing woman. As far as Quranism is concerned, we are NOT going to mention any sexual scandals or rumors about women of the Al-Saud family members; this is a grave sin/crime as per the Quran: "Those who accuse chaste women, then cannot bring four witnesses, whip them eighty lashes, and do not ever accept their testimony. For these are the immoral." (24:4). This is why this article you are reading is confined to immorality and promiscuity of men of Al-Saud family members, NOT to scandalize them, but to preach and warn readers and to make them draw useful lessons.  

3- The Saudi royal family male members will be destroyed and smitten by God because of their grave injustices, ill-gotten money, immorality, and promiscuity. In fact, their immorality and promiscuous lifestyle is practiced inside and outside the Saudi kingdom [from the West (e.g., inside the USA) to the East (e.g., inside Thailand)], and pieces of news of such promiscuity fill websites (with photos and videos), and we quote some examples of such pieces of news, and NOT all of them, because they are so many and fill tomes and volumes. 

 

Firstly: homosexuality and murder:

 The fact that homosexual debaucheries spread inside the Saudi kingdom, and among some men of the Saudi royal family, is known worldwide; the websites are filled with such very disgusting scandals. We quote here one scandal of homosexuality and murder concerning a prince named Saud Ibn Abdul-Aziz Ibn Nasser Ibn Al-Saud who murdered his male servant lover, Bandar Ibn Abdul-Aziz, in a hotel room in London. the Saudi royal family tried in vain to impose media blackout on this scandal; media in the West covered this scandal at the time in 2010. Prince Saud confessed to judges in Old Baily Court that he caused the death of his servant, Bandar Ibn Abdul-Aziz, but he insisted on pleading (not guilty) regarding premeditated murder or sadistically torturing the victim to death. When the corpse of the victim was discovered in the hotel room, the prince Saud  claimed that the victim was assaulted by thieves three weeks ago before his the day his corpse was found. The British attorney general, Jonathan Laidlaw asserted that prince Saud confessed to the crime of murdering his servant and that the jury members must decide of prince Saud is guilty of manslaughter or premeditated murder. Laidlaw asserted that the victim's corpse show signs that he was beaten severely and underwent suffocation inside the hotel room he shared with prince Saud. This shows clearly that he was murdered while having sex with a man. A report mentions that prince Saud might have murdered his male lover out of jealousy because he found out that he had another male lover: an Algerian man of Yemeni origin. Videos of webcams of the hotel show that the victim, Bandar Ibn Abdul-Aziz was beaten severely by prince Saud days before his death. Thus, there is clear evidence that prince Saud was either a sadist homosexual or he has these tendencies to violence and homosexuality. Thus, prince Saud (who was 34 years old at the time) was accused of torturing and murdering his 32-year-old servant Bandar Ibn Abdul-Aziz whose corpse was found in Feb. 2010 in a room in the Landmark hotel, in Marylebone, London. The Old Bailey Court was notified that prince Saud physically attacked the victims several times before the victim died, and there was evidence that the prince committed the murder and the savage torture process before it. the Saudi royal family bribed the jury members to impose media blackout to prevent its being scandalized worldwide; mediators among some British leaders and Israeli generals interfered to prevent leaking any details to the media and the public opinion. This pressure led the jury members to demand a written waiver from the family of the victim to settle the case within legal means. Bribes paid by the Saudi royal family reached the total sum of 50 million US$. Mysteriously, the court declared prince Saud as (innocent)! The British authorities assert that they have videos and documented evidence of many scandals of homosexual Saudi princes and that such material may be made known later on when the time comes.                       

 

Secondly: gambling and king Fahd:

1- It is known that king Fahd lost 60 million SR on tables of gambling in London casinos. The Sunday Times mentions that the memoirs of Janan Harb, the widow of king Fahd (a woman from a Christian background) stated that she will publish a book entitled "The Saudi King and I" in which her relationship with king Fahd will be detailed. Janan Harb moved out of the Saudi kingdom; she mentions in an interview that king Fahd was addicted to gambling and to a sedative called Methadone. Her biography will be turned into a movie, as per the BBC News. This movie will be produced in a time when oil prices in the Saudi kingdom have plummeted so much and when the Saudi family members try hard to conceal and stifle rumors about conflicts about the Saudi throne. The movie is said to include a scene of king Fahd giving himself Methadone through a syringe and another scene of his addiction to gambling in Mayfair, London.            

2- Pieces of news of Al-Saud and gambling are countless, but this is the funniest piece of news of this category: at one time, the Saudi prince Majid Ibn Abdullah Ibn Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud lost 359 million US$ and five of his nine female companions (to settle the rest of his debts!) in only six hours within a poker game. This prince is known for his addiction to drugs, gambling, and deviant behavior, as per Arutz Sheva Israeli media network.   

 

Thirdly: drugs:

  The Saudi prince Abdul-Mohsen Ibn Waleed Ibn Abdul-Mohsen Ibn Saud was arrested in Oct. 2015 in Lebanon (with two of his men) as he was the biggest drug dealer and smuggler in the Middle East. This Saudi prince was arrested in Rafiq Al-Hariri International Airport in Beirut, on his way to the Saudi kingdom, as his luggage, within his private plane, contained a few kilograms of cocaine and two tons of Captagon. Interrogation of the Saudi prince and his men was delayed for one day because they were inebriated and intoxicated. This has been the biggest drug smuggling case in the history of Lebanon and the Saudi kingdom. In fact, the KSA suffers in the last two decades increased rates of addiction of various types of drugs. The cost of the drugs found with this Saudi prince reached 110 million US$. Captagon filled the Levant region years before this case that unveiled details of such drugs smuggling within Syria and how Captagon reached armed terrorist militias there, especially ISIS terrorists. Smuggling drugs into the Saudi kingdom is a crime penalized by the capital punishment (by beheading) regardless of the amount confiscated by the police. Three years before the incident of this Saudi prince, an Egyptian man named Ahmad Al-Guizawi was arrested when accused of smuggling Tramadol pills; this accusation is said to be false by Egyptian media because Al-Guizawi dared to criticize Al-Saud family in his blog and social media accounts, before he traveled to Mecca for pilgrimage, and his arrest caused much trouble between Egypt and the KSA; demonstrations before the Saudi embassy in Cairo led the Saudi ambassador to leave Egypt for a while. This means that the Saudi authorities condoned the Saudi prince who smuggled tons of drugs while it have framed an Egyptian innocent man who dared to criticize Al-Saud family online! Drugs smuggled into the Saudi kingdom since 2014 include cocaine, heroin, cannabis, and different pills and sedatives, worth more than two million SR, involving 1400 incarcerated defendants, mostly foreigners, and the drugs amounts confiscated by Saudi police are too much in relation to the number of Saudi population. The Saudi prince expected that his private plane will not be searched because of his diplomatic passport as a member of the Saudi royal family this prince quarreled with men at the airport in Lebanon for insisting to search his plane and luggage. This incident sheds more light on the series of crimes committed by the al-Saud royal family members worldwide: smuggling drugs, murder, violence, rape, kidnaping, and torture. The same Saudi prince was involved in the crime of forcing three American women serving him in his palace in Beverly Hills, LA, to take drugs and he has beaten and raped them! Foreign Policy mentions that many of the Saudi princes are involved in smuggling of drugs inside and outside the Saudi kingdom. In 1999, the Saudi prince Nayef Ibn Sultan was accused of smuggling cocaine from Venezuela to France, using his private plane and his diplomatic passport, but he lives now inside the Saudi kingdom within impunity after he fled secretly from France before being sentenced to ten years in absentia. An international memo of his arrest exists since 2007. The American authorities have accused the same prince before in the 1980s of distributing cocaine inside the USA. WikiLeaks in 2010 mentions a telegram about secret parties of consumption of drugs (hash and cocaine) and wine inside Jeddah and how the Saudi authorities overlook such parties and masquerades financed by some Saudi princes and hosted about 150 men and women. The Foreign Policy mentions that Wahabi sharia laws and penalties are never applied inside the Saudi kingdom to about 15 thousand persons of the Al-Saud family members; yet, foreign drug smugglers and dealers are beheaded in Saudi prisons! There are lines of evidence linking crimes of Saudi princes worldwide (rape, violence, and murder) to smuggling of drugs.               

  Summary of a WikiLeaks report about an American diplomatic memo:

1- Behind the veneer of Wahabi conservatism in streets of Jeddah, underground nightlife is thriving for many youths in parties held secretly behind closed doors in which sex, drugs, alcoholic beverages are available. Even orgies (or group sex) is available because religious police is never present in parties (especially ones celebrating Halloween) held under the auspices of Saudi princes and their retinue members.

2- The VIP and elite members of Saudi high classes hold parties underground in secret. One of these recent secret parties held by a Saudi prince in Jeddah to celebrate Halloween included about 150 men and women in their late twenties and in their thirties. Every man and woman was searched thoroughly by security men before entering, and the scene inside was like any ordinary nightclub outside the Saudi kingdom: lots of wine and drugs, DJ, and lovers dancing in suits and soiree clothes, and this party has been sponsored by an American company of energy drinks and by a Saudi prince who was attended the party of course.   

3- The religious police are not to be seen at such parties or orgies, and security men have lists of names of guests who were never ashamed to talk about their lusts and carnal appetites. As per words of a young Saudi man who is the son of a known businessman in Jeddah, Saudis hold such parties in palaces of Saudi princes and in their presence so as not to allow religious policemen to interfere. There are different ranks and titles among the ten thousand Saudi princes, including six generations, and each of them has a spacious palace, fancy car, huge salaries during his lifetime, retinue members, servants, and guards. Most Saudi princes grew up with guards and attendants nearly their age (and therefore called as brothers) brought from Nigeria and other African countries, and they are very loyal to the Saudi princes they serve.  

4- Regardless of Saudi laws and habits against wine-drinking, prostitution, and drugs, there is a huge black-markets inside the kingdom that provide prostitutes, all types of wines, and all drugs, which were available in the Halloween party in Jeddah. The wine in the party was bought at prices between 100 to 1500 SR as per the type of imported wine (arak, whisky, vodka, champagne, etc.), and prostitutes fill the place along with amounts of cocaine and hash.

5- This shows that well-off and affluent Saudi youths enjoy relative social freedom indoors and in secret and engage into orgies behind closed doors in parties so frequently held in Jeddah and other main cities. As per the words of a Saudi youth, smaller group-sex encounters are being organized in lofty mansions of the affluent men, and such mansions include underground private bars and small nightclubs, and engaging in such activities in secret is a reaction to the ultraconservative trend in public inside the Saudi kingdom.  

 

LASTLY: a former foreign guard who served Saudi princes exposes their secret life: drugs, homosexuality, corruption, and crimes:

  Within his book titled "Saudi Bodyguard", a British man named Mark Young exposes all scandals of the Saudi princes and some of their sons and daughters, especially the late king Fahd Ibn Abdul-Aziz, prince Talal Ibn Abdul-Aziz, and prince Fawwaz Ibn Abdul-Aziz. Indeed, Young has spent ten years working as a bodyguard to several princes and he wanted to ease his conscience by narrating the crimes he saw. The book is about working life of a bodyguard for the Saudi's and the unusual experiences he faced. Experiences of a bodyguard that worked with the upper echelons of the Saudi royal family members and others. Young exposes in hits books the British and the Americans who provide protection to the Al-Saud family in return for confiscating the wealth of the Saudi citizens admired by Young when he contacted them for ten years. The author of this book asserts how the Saudi princes are corrupt ones who steal, gamble, and rape because they are sex-addicts, homosexuals, and addicted to drugs, and he asserts how the royal Saudi family manipulate the religion they claim to apply and with the money they claim they spend for the welfare of Saudi citizens. He writes about the prince Ahmad Ibn Abdul-Aziz, calling him a criminal, drunkard, addicted to drugs, and a gambler. The author asserts that the prince Feisal Ibn Fahd was a homosexual who committed crimes of murder and he was addicted to drugs though he is the head of the police forces that hunt drug-dealers, and he died from an overdose. He writes about the prince Fawwaz Ibn Abdul-Aziz that he was a corrupt drunkard who was addicted to gambling and lost huge sums of money, while he was the governor of Mecca. He writes that the prince Ezz-Eddine Ibn Saud was a homosexual who died of AIDS at a young age. We read in the book that the prince Hammoud Ibn Abdul-Aziz asked Young to have sex with him, but when Young refused, the prince was furious. The author writes further that the princes M. Ibn Fahd and Saud Ibn Nayef lost huge sums of money on the tables of gambling. The author provides many photos in his book of himself with members of the royal family he served as well as documents proving he worked inside the Saudi kingdom as a bodyguard. Young in his book addresses the Saudi nation by telling them to revolt and demand their rights instead of submission to the corrupt Al-Saud family members who made the Saudi citizens import and beg everything they eat, drive, use, and wear from the civilized world. Young asserts that Islam is a great religion but never applied inside the Saudi kingdom and that Prophet Muhammad is insulted by the Saudi royal family members who never cared about caricatures in the West insulting Prophet Muhammad. Young asserts that the Saudi princes steal lands and oil revenues, which are billions of US$ that should have been spent on the Saudi citizens and they insult sharia laws and they incarcerate, insult, persecute, and torture those who defend rights of Saudis! These are very true and painful words!

 

 

The Destruction of Al-Saud Royal Family Because of Their Repelling Others Away from God's Path

 

Introduction:

 God says in the Quran: "Those who disbelieve spend their wealth to repel from God's Path. They will spend it, then it will become a source of sorrow for them, and then they will be defeated. Those who disbelieve will be herded into Hell." (6:36). We assert the following ideas about this verse in the points below.

1- The verse 6:36 is about Qorayish tribe and how it spent money to mislead people away from the Path of the Lord God; Qorayish was eventually defeated. The fact that 6:36 is in the present tense in the Quranic text indicates clearly that this verse is applied in all eras (till the end of days) to all those who repel people away from God's Path; i.e., the Quran. Hence, 6:36 applies to the Al-Saud family members in our modern era, because the Saudi kingdom spends billions of US$ to spread Wahabism worldwide to repel people from the Quran (i.e., the true Islam). Qorayish spent lots of money inside Arabia to maintain polytheism and to fight monotheism, whereas Al-Saud family members spend billions of US$ all over the world to distort the great religion of Islam by making people assume that Wahabism is God's religion instead of Islam. 

2- The verse 6:36 shows clearly that Qorayish tribesmen were defeated and their spending for the sake of polytheism was a source of sorrow for them. This will apply certainly to the Saudi royal family; this means that they will be defeated and destroyed by God, and they will feel the bitter taste of sorrow and defeat. 

3- The verse 6:36 shows clearly that those disbelievers will enter into Hell for eternity; this applies to Wahabi polytheists who die while sticking to their disbelief. As for those who sincerely repent, they will die as repentant ones who will be spared and enter into Paradise. We sincerely hope that a wise man among the Saudi royal family members would emerge and save them from humiliation and destruction in this life and Hell in the Hereafter by introducing radical reform in the Saudi kingdom.  

4- The Saudi royal family members are the ones who finance the process of propagating Wahabism worldwide that spread corruption, terrorism, and bloodbaths in most countries in the planet. Thus, they are the ones responsible for tarnishing the image of Islam as its name is now linked to terrorism and bloodshed. This is the worst type of repelling people away from God's Path: the Quran. In fact, jihad fighting for God's sake means self-defense to stop religious persecution, and this jihad has clear, specific, and strict rules in the Quranic text, and we have explained this in many of our previous Quranist writings. Yet, the whole world links the term ''jihad'' to Wahabi terrorism. The true Quranic sharia laws of Islam is based on peace, justice, freedom, charity, tolerance and human dignity, but because of Wahabism, the West countries wrongly assume that Wahabi sharia laws of terrorism, massacres, sabotage, extremism, fanaticism, and religious persecution were part of Islam. The Quran is a mercy sent to Muhammad for the sake of the humankind: "We did not send you except as mercy to humankind." (21:107). Wahabis have caused the Quran to be wrongly accused by the West to be the source inciting terrorism, massacres, and indiscriminate killings.      

5- Hence, If the Saudi royal family members would not repent, declare their rejection of Wahabism, and introduce immediate reform inside the Saudi kingdom, they will taste the bitterness and sorrow of being defeated after spending billions of US$ to spread Wahabism in the guise of 'Islam'. Because of the fact that the Saudi kingdom is a fragile, weak country, it will face imminent collapse in the worst way that reminds us of this verse about ancient nations destroyed by God: "Those before them also schemed, but God took their structures from the foundations, and the roof caved in on them. The torment came at them from where they did not perceive." (16:26).

6- The givens of the political collapse of the Saudi kingdom are unchangeable and will be tackled in coming articles as a kind of warning. In fact, this will be the defeat of the Wahabi Saudis because they repel people away from God's Path, as we infer from the verse 6:36. God's destruction of the Saudi kingdom has not come yet; we preach and warn here in hope of sparing the souls of the weak, oppressed ones in Arabia.

7- Yet, the fact that Saudi royal family members have spent money and tasted bitterness and sorrow (as per the verse 6:36) has come to pass partially; we refer here to the fact that the Saudi royal family members have spent millions of US$ on the terrorist MB group and the MB members turned against them and caused sorrow and losses to them. After they have spent money on Al-Qaradawy, he has been a source of sorrow to them; after they have spent money on Afghani jihadists, Al-Qaida terrorist organization has been established, among other Wahabi organizations that caused sorrow, losses, danger, troubles, and dismay to the Saudi kingdom. This is because when Saudi Arabia has spent billions of US$ to spread Wahabism, the Wahabi terrorist organizations emerged as a reaction to resent the fact that the Saudi royal family members monopolize wealth, power, and authority while submissively serving the USA. This means that danger, sorrow, and bitterness follow the Saudi family members because they have spent money to repel people away from God's Way: the Quran. Thus, the Saudi kingdom has created so many enemies for itself; maybe one of such arch-enemies would cause the collapse and downfall of the Saudi royal family members by destroying and murdering them worldwide! This is why we preach and warn here so that the Saudi royal family members may repent soon enough before it is too late for them. 

8- The Saudi role in financing Wahabi terrorism worldwide is exposed in hundreds of reports published online. We quote below some words of such reports as a reminder for readers.

 

Firstly: quotations from reports of WikiLeaks taken from Hillary Clinton when she was the Foreign Minister in 2009:

1- Within the first conference of the Organization of
Islamic Cooperation, the Saudi king called for a reconsideration of affairs of all Muslims worldwide, especially in countries where Muslim minorities live, as the Saudi kingdom must play a historic role in preserving the Islamic identity and serving Muslims and Islamic issues. Since the 1970s, the Saudi kingdom has taken the earliest steps to establish mosques and Saudi universities in poor villages where minorities of Muslims live, under the pretext that the West culture poses a threat to them by seeking to control them to convince them to convert to Christianity.  

2- For decades, the Saudi kingdom has diligently financed educational, cultural, and religious projects addressed to Muslim minorities in different countries in Asia, Africa, and Europe; this has not been only through charity money and private companies; rather, this has been systematically and methodically done by the members of the Saudi royal family in order to spread and propagate the Wahabi ideology. Hence, the Saudi cultural and financial sponsoring has begun in the 1980s as the Saudi government spent millions of US$ to establish mosques and religious schools and centers for children and for the youth, among other services. This turned Salafist ideology from something marginal in poor African villages, for instance, to a strong trend spreading all over Islamic societies everywhere, and this seems apparently harmless in villages of the underprivileged and impoverished people.        

3- The Saudi financial sponsorship of such 'Islamic' centers, schools, and universities has reached about 100 billion US$ in three decades, but there is no ascertained amounts of money, but the real amount may be the double of what is mentioned here, especially after oil prices increased in the 2000s.  

4- This is not a religious issue; it is rather a political one. The soviets have spent 7 billion US$ to spread the communist ideology within 70 years (1921 - 1991), and the Saudis used different methods and more money to spread Wahabism among Muslims in Asia, Africa, and the West, so as not to make Wahabism confined to the Saudi kingdom. Thus, Saudi Wahabism is now spread from Kosovo to Jakarta and from the UK to the USA. These Saudi endeavors have included a huge campaign to train imams, sermonizers, and preachers and to teach them the Arabic tongue and the Wahabi ideology while providing them with printed books. This is the biggest campaign of religious education for free sponsored by Al-Saud royal family members.    

5- The situation is worse in Africa in particular; in poor villages of Muslims, one either get free education in Wahabi schools or no education at all; sadly, this applies to poor villages in the Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, and India. Many African countries lack basic human services and facilities, and this poses a threat to providing education, as Christian missions of proselytization and evangelism spread in Africa and try to make as many converts as possible among those who hardly have any knowledge about Islam because of lack of mosques, imams, and religious books, and the Saudi kingdom has filled this gap with its Wahabi centers, schools, books, and preachers.    

6- The Saudi Wahabism managed to drive out and combat Sufism, the religion that used to spread in Africa. The Saudis controlled hundreds of charity organizations that provide humanitarian aid in Africa; thus, Muslim minorities there are aided, educated, trained, and taught the Wahabi religion in countries like Ethiopia, Somalia, Tanzania, Zanzibar, and Nigeria. These Saudi endeavors and sponsorships have been helped by other governments of the Gulf monarchies to spread the Wahabi ideology in Africa, due to internal and external factors, and to make as many African people as possible convert to Wahabism and to reject Sufism, and this has created some tensions in some African countries as Arabian Saudi culture spread in the majority of poor classes in many African cities and villages. On the roofs of houses of poor villages, one can see satellite dishes installed for free to allow African Wahabis to watch Arab channels. Many African youths were allowed to enroll for free in universities in the Gulf monarchies and to find job opportunities there, especially inside the Saudi kingdom. This is why the West countries now accuse the Saudi kingdom of intentionally spreading Wahabism within the poor classes in African to support extremism and terrorism exemplified by the terrorist organizations Boko Haram in Nigeria and Al-Shabaab movement in Somalia.            

7- In Europe, mosques and the so-called 'Islamic' centers are the cultural and social haven for Muslim Europeans, and European governments never imposed any restrictions regarding establishment of such Wahabi centers and mosques, as this has provided the ideal legal opportunity to watch the Muslim communities easily. Like the case in Africa and Asia, the Saudi kingdom topped the list of financing European mosques and Wahabi centers, as the Turkish and Qatari financing come after it. Thus, the Saudi kingdom managed to drive away Sufi groups in Europe, as observed in France, Germany, and the UK.

8- The Wahabi thought and ideology is the keyword for the debates of the West countries about terrorism. The fingers of accusations are pointed at Wahabis without falling into the trap of generalization. This is why the media of the West criticize and question the Wahabi religion which is adopted by all extremist and terrorist organizations like Al-Qaeda, as all terrorists insist formally and officially that they derive their ideas partially from the writings of M. Abdul-Wahab, the founder of Wahabism.     

 

 We still surf the internet to quote more words of the West about how the Saudi kingdom has spread the Wahabi religion of terrorism worldwide, which is a wicked, false religion that repels people away from God's Path: the Quran which is the Only True Islam.

 

Firstly: the US Senate report:

1- In 2003, a US Senate report reported that in the past 20 years (1980-2000), Saudi Arabia spent $ 87 billion on promoting the Wahhabi ideology worldwide. This included the funding of 210 of the so-called 'Islamic' centers, 1500 mosques, and 202 religious schools. At the same time, various estimates indicate that the amounts spent by the Saudi government across several fronts on these targeted institutions amount to $ 3 billion annually. Indian newspapers have recently reported that Saudi Arabia has a huge $ 35 billion program to build mosques and religious schools in South Asia, where there are major Muslim communities in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh.

2- This money would silence the moderate Islamic voices and make the poison of extremism spread in all Muslim societies around the world, from the organization of Al-Shabaab in Somalia to Boko Haram in Nigeria and the Jamaa Eslamiyya in Indonesia. Most of the armed terrorist organizations that spread their tentacles around the world are inspired by Saudi-funded thought.

 

Second: report of the European Parliament:

1- A report released in June 2013 by the Directorate General for Foreign Policy of the European Parliament revealed that Saudi-funded 'Islamic' organizations are involved in supporting and supplying weapons to insurgent groups around the world. And he warns of those Wahhabi organizations, noting that "no country in the world is safe from its terrorist operations." The report also states that oil revenues in the Saudi kingdom finance global terrorism.

2- It has been repeatedly proven that Saudi Arabia is the world's largest source of funding for all armed terrorist jihadist groups, such as Al-Qaeda, the Taliban in Afghanistan, and Lashkar-e-Taiba in South Asia. This destructive phenomenon is being carried out under the name of ''jihad with money''. But what about the international situation? Almost all the UN Security Council resolutions that prevent the financing of global terrorism are ignored and disregarded because of the obsequious governments of many countries and world leaders eager to serve the interests of the wealthy Saudi regime with which they have strong relations; for example, the relationship of the Saudi royal family with the family of former US President George W. Bush. Hence, the so-called global jihad and its links with Saudi Arabia will continue with impunity. No wonder that Saudi oil money has reached places like Boston, Madrid, Mumbai, Moscow, Paris, Brussels and elsewhere, where terrorist violence has shed the blood of innocent civilians. Today, Saudi-sponsored Wahabism is a very politicized and dangerous school of thought whose main aim is to counter the growing influence of modern liberal values ​​and, above all, to confront the idea of ​​democracy itself.

 

Thirdly: Thomas Friedman's article inNew York Times published by most of major American newspapers:

1- Friedman asserts that it was Saudi Arabia (and not Iran) that supports terrorism worldwide, that Washington condoned it in anticipation of Saudi oil, that Saudi Arabia was financing global terrorism, that Saudi Wahabi ideology is the one imbibed by terrorists, and that Al-Qaeda, ISIS, and other terrorist organizations are funded by Saudi Arabia and adopt the Saudi Wahhabi thought. And he mentions that recent WikiLeaks documents prove that Saudi Arabia spends $ billions to disseminate the dangerous Wahabi ideology in the world that declare all non-Wahabis as infidels who deserve to be killed. The 19 hijackers within 9/11 terrorist attacks came from Saudi Arabia. The erosion of stability and modernization in the Arab world, and in the entire 'Islamic' world, was caused by $ billions invested by the Saudis since the 1970s which aimed to undermine pluralism and moderation within Islam and to replace it with the extremist and radical groups and to combat modernity women's rights and to propagate anti-Western sentiment.

2- The fight against pluralism and replacing it with Salafist Wahabism as a form of Islam is promoted by the Saudi religious establishment. It is no coincidence that several thousands of Saudis have joined the ISIS, apart from donations sent to ISIS terrorists from charities in the Persian Gulf monarchies. It is because all these Sunnite jihadist groups, Al-Qaeda, the Nasra Front, ISIS, and others are the offspring of Saudi Wahabism, which is injected into mosques and religious schools from Morocco, Pakistan, to Indonesia.

 

Fourthly: quotes fromNew York Times issue dated Sept. 26, 2016:

1- The US presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump agree on the subject of Saudi Arabia. Clinton denounced the Saudi support for "schools and mosques around the world that put many young people on the path of extremism." Trump said the Saudis were "the biggest financiers of terrorism in the world".

2- Farah Pandith, the first American diplomat to be sent to Muslim communities, visited 80 countries and concluded that the Saudi influence was destroying Islamic traditions. "If the Saudis do not stop doing what they do, it will have diplomatic, cultural and economic dire consequences," she wrote last year.

3- Almost a week goes by without a television critic or newspaper reporter blaming Saudi Arabia for jihadist violence. On the HPO network, for example, Bell Mar considered Saudi teachings "from the Middle Ages." Fareed Zakaria wrote in the Washington Post that the Saudis had "created a beast in the Muslim world."

4- The idea has become common: Saudi Arabia's radical, fanatical, patriarchal and fundamentalist approach to Wahabism has fueled global extremism and contributed to increased terrorism. Thomas Hegghammer, a Norwegian terrorism expert who served as an adviser to the US government, said that the negative effect of Saudi Arabia's call for Islam is to slow its development and prevent natural adaptation in a diverse world dominated by globalization. If the twentieth century were to witness an Islamic reform, the Saudis have probably have managed to prevent this by spreading the Wahabi notions.

5- It is noteworthy that what the Saudis did was amazing, reaching almost every country that includes a Muslim population, from the Great Gothenburg Mosque in Sweden to the King Faisal Mosque in Chad, from the King Fahd Mosque in Los Angeles to the Seoul Central Mosque In South Korea. Support for these mosques has come from the Saudi government, the royal family, Saudi charities, Saudi-sponsored organizations including the Muslim World League, the World Muslim Youth Symposium and the International Islamic Relief Organization, through the provision of majestic buildings as well as preaching and teaching programs.

6- There is widespread consensus that Saudi Arabia's vast ideological power has distorted local Muslim traditions in dozens of countries, as a result of the lavish expenditure on religious expansion over half a century, estimated at tens of $ billions. The result was also greater due to expatriate labor, a large proportion of which came from South Asia. These expatriates spend many years in the Saudi kingdom and then return home with Saudi customs and traditions. In many countries, Wahabism preached imposing harsh religious rulings, leading many people in Egypt, Pakistan and other countries to prefer the idea of stoning citizens for adultery, murder, and apostasy, according to opinion polls in those countries.

7- But how exactly the Saudi kingdom's influence appears to be depends largely on local data. For example, in parts of Africa and South-East Asia, Saudi teachings have transformed religious culture into a ultraconservative one, and this trend is more evident in the rise in the number of veiled women or men who grow their beards. Saudi influence in Muslim immigrant communities in Europe appears to be but one factor, not the most important one, among the many factors that lead to extremism. In countries with a diversity or religious division, such as Pakistan and Nigeria, the influx of Saudi funds and the Wahabi ideology promoted there exacerbate religious divisions and the situation is increasingly seen as very dangerous. For some people in many countries, the Wahabi Sunnite Saudi version of Islam distorts the image of Jews and Christians, as well as Shiites, Sufis, and other sects, and this has made some people vulnerable to the temptation of joining Al-Qaeda, ISIS and other violent jihadist groups.

8- "After the individual is subjected to a huge number of ideas and statements that devalue others as human beings, this individual will eventually be subjected to recruitment from terrorist groups, and what then when these ideas and statements are presented as God's own words?" That is the view of David Andrew Weinberg, a senior fellow at the Washington-based Foundation for the Defense of Democracies which criticizes and traces the increasing Saudi influence.

9- The centuries-old dilemma is as follows: why does Saudi Arabia find it very difficult to abandon an ideology that is rejected by many countries of the world? The key to the Saudi dilemma harkens back to about three centuries ago, to the origin of the alliance on which the Saudi state is still based. In 1744, Mohamed Ibn Abdul-Wahab, a 'reformist' clergyman, sought to have the protection of Mohamed Ibn Saud, a strong tribal leader in the arid desert of the Arabian Peninsula. The alliance was mutually beneficial; Ibn Abdul-Wahab received the military protection of his movement, which sought the return of Muslims to what was believed to be the values ​​of the early years of Islam in the seventh century A.D., when Prophet Muhammad was alive. The beliefs of Ibn Abdul-Wahab is a version of several versions of Salafism, the ultraconservative movement of Islam, which is based on the belief that the righteous predecessors or forefathers enjoyed the correct customs and beliefs and should be emulated. On the other hand, the Al-Saud family received the support of Ibn Abdul-Wahab who applied strict rules and was known to insist on putting adulterous women death by stoning.

10- The version of Ibn Abdul-Wahab of Islam was the first of two historical events, after several centuries, to determine the form of Saudi religious influence later on. What has become known as Wahabism was "desert tribal Islam," according to Akbar Ahmed, head of Islamic Studies Department at an American University in Washington. It was formed as a result of a harsh, desert environment, based on xenophobia, strongly opposed to shrines, mausoleums, and 'holy' tombs, and art and music, and it differs significantly from global Islam in the various commercial cities like Baghdad and Cairo.

11- The second historical event took place in 1938, when the Americans discovered the world's largest oil reserves inside the Saudi kingdom. Oil revenues from the Arab-American oil company, ARAMCO, have brought considerable wealth. But it also maintained a harsh social and economic system and gave ultraconservative religious authorities a huge budget to export Wahabism as a form of radical Islam.

12- In 1964, when king Faisal ascended the throne, he committed himself to spreading 'Islam' (i.e., Wahabism). Although he adopted the approach of introducing reform in many respects inside the KSA and established close ties with the West, he was unable to reform Wahabism, which has become the face of Saudi generosity in many countries. Over the next four decades, the Saudi kingdom, in predominantly non-Muslim countries, has built 1359 mosques, 210 Islamic centers, 202 colleges and 2000 schools. Saudi money has also helped finance 16 mosques in the USA, four in Canada and others in London, Madrid, Brussels and Geneva, according to a report in the weekly Saudi weekly Al-Ain Al Yaqin. Total spending, including sending and training imams and teachers, amounted to many billions of SR (four riyals was equivalent to one dollar), the report said.

13- The Saudi religious teachings had special power because they came from the birthplace of Prophet Muhammad, the land of the Two Holy Mosques, Mecca and Medina. When Saudi imams arrived in Muslim countries in Asia or Africa and Muslim communities in Europe or the two Americas, wearing traditional Arab dress, speaking the language of the Quran, and carrying generous funds, they gained automatic credibility. With the passage of the 20th century, people of different nationalities and religions began to mingle routinely, and thus there was a greater imbalance in the strict and exclusionary nature of Wahhabi teachings. But the Saudi government found it extremely difficult to eliminate or soften its ideology, especially after 1979, which has become a milestone in its history.

14- In 1979 in Tehran, the Iranian revolution brought to power a radical Shiite government, a symbolic challenge to Saudi Arabia, the Sunnite leader presumably leading Islam worldwide. The emergence  of the Islamic Republic of Iran has made the competition fierce between the two branches of Islam: the Sunnites and the Shiites. This has prompted the Saudi kingdom to redouble efforts to confront Iran and spread Wahabism worldwide. Then, in an astonishing blow, 500 Saudi Wahabi extremists invaded the Sacred Kaaba Mosque in Mecca for two weeks and publicly called Saudi leaders as West-controlled puppets and accused them of betraying 'true' Islam. The rebels were defeated, but the prominent Wahabi clergymen did not agree to support the Saudi government's stance unless after confirming its support for eliminating signs of indecency inside the Saudi kingdom and propagating Wahabism more abroad.

15- Finally, at the end of the year 1979, the USSR conquered Afghanistan and seized power in order to support the communist government. The Soviets soon faced a Mujahedeen (i.e., jihadists) insurgency, which attracted Wahabi fighters from all over the world to a 10-year battle aimed at getting the invaders out of Afghanistan.

16- Throughout the 1980s, Saudi Arabia and the USA cooperated to fund the Mujahedeen in this big Afghan war, which would revive the 'noble' idea of ​​armed jihad in the minds of Muslims worldwide. We must refer to the famous event, when former US President Ronald Reagan met in the Oval Office with a delegation of bearded Afghan freedom fighters who adopted social and religious views barely distinguishable from those adopted by the Taliban movement later on. In fact, the USA spent $ 50 million between 1986 and 1992 on the so-called (Literacy Project about Jihad), which printed books for Afghan children and adults to encourage violence against non-Muslim "infidels", who included the Soviet forces. For example, a language book for the first grade of Pashto speakers uses the term "Mujahid" (i.e., a jihadist), such as: "My brother Mujahid, Afghan Muslims are Mujahedeen, I fight with them ... Jihad against the infidels is our duty." This came in a study by Dana Burde, an associate professor at New York University.

 

 

The Al-Saud Family and Their Repelling Others Away from the Sacred Kaaba Mosque

 

 

Introduction:

1- In our previous writings, we have proved how that Islam in terms of behavior is peace and that any peaceful individuals are Muslims regardless of their faith or beliefs. Islam in terms of one's heart/mind and beliefs is monotheism: to submit to God in piety and to devote religion and all acts of worship to Him. This monotheistic faith (or lack of it) is judged only by God on the Last Day, and never by mortals in this life. People have the right to judge outward, ostensible behavior as either peaceful or violent; laws preserve human rights against infringement or violation.     

2- In contrast, disbelief and polytheism are synonymous terms in the Quranic text, in terms of beliefs by taking gods alongside with Allah and in terms of aggressive behavior that include religious persecution and aggressive wars waged falsely in the name of God. 

3- Having written the above, we tackle in this article the religious crime of the Al-Saud family that repel people away from God's Path (i.e., the Quran) and away from the Sacred Kaaba Mosque in Mecca.

 

Firstly:

1- On planet Earth, God has established a Sacred House for Himself as a locational sanctuary for people to worship Him within a temporal sanctuary of the four sacred months of pilgrimage: "God has appointed the Kaaba, the Sacred House, a sanctuary for the people, and the Sacred Month, and the offerings, and the garlanded..." (5:97); "The number of months, according to God, is twelve months-in the decree of God-since the Day He created the heavens and the earth, of which four are sacred. This is the correct religion. So do not wrong yourselves during them..." (9:36). Arab disbelievers before the advent of Islam (i.e., before the revelation of the Quran) distorted the chronological order of these sacred four months by postponing or delaying some days of them to serve their purposes, a sign of utter disbelief: "Postponement is an increase in disbelief - by which those who disbelieve are led astray. They allow it one year, and forbid it another year, in order to conform to the number made sacred by God, thus permitting what God has forbidden. The evil of their deeds seems good to them. God does not guide the disbelieving people." (9:37). The immoral sinful caliphs Abou Bakr, Omar, and Othman committed a heinous crime that show they rejected Islam (i.e., they disbelieved in the Quran); this crimes is called the Arab conquests, within which they committed aggression against peaceful nations that never attacked and fought Arabs in Arabia. This heinous crime was committed falsely in the name of Islam during the four sacred months of pilgrimage, in which no fighting of any type is allowed. This is why the Muhammadans of today have forgotten all about the four sacred months and that they must adhere to peace during them. We infer from the first verses of the Quranic Chapter Nine that these four sacred months I the lunar calendar are Zu Al-Hijja, Muharram, Saffar, and Rabei Awwal.      

2- God commands the duty of pilgrimage to the Sacred House in Mecca anytime within these four sacred months, while purifying one's heart during pilgrimage, as the desire to commit any injustices there is a sacrilege and a grave sin penalized by God: "The Hajj is during specific months. Whoever decides to perform the Hajj - there shall be no sexual relations, nor misconduct, nor quarrelling during the Hajj. And whatever good you do, God knows it. And take provisions, but the best provision is righteousness. And be mindful of Me, O people of understanding." (2:197); "As for those who disbelieve and repel from God's Path and from the Sacred Mosque - which We have designated for all humankind equally, whether residing therein or passing through - and seek to commit injustices and sacrilege therein - We will make him taste of a painful torment." (22:25).  

3- Piety during pilgrimage (or Ihram) within hearts of pilgrims means that their hearts become sanctuaries; yet, the Muhammadans in their false rituals have turned Ihram into revealing clothes for men that show private parts of their bodies. In the past centuries, Bedouins of Arabia used to attack caravans of pilgrims; this led caliphates in Baghdad and Cairo to send military guards to accompany the caravans and to confine pilgrimage only to the first ten days of Zu Al-Hijja; they disregarded the fact that pilgrimage can be performed within the four sacred months. This is not the only sacrilege and insult to God's sharia laws regarding pilgrimage.

4- God has made the Sacred Mosque in Mecca as a sanctuary and place of security to all people coming from everywhere on the planet Earth: "And We made the House a focal point for the people, and a sanctuary..." (2:125); "...Whoever enters it attains security. Pilgrimage to the House is a duty to God for all who can make the journey. But as for those who refuse-God is Independent of the worlds." (3:97). Since most human beings in all eras are misguiding polytheists [even if Muhammad himself would have obeyed them, they would have mislead him: "If you were to obey most of those on Earth, they would divert you from God's Path. They follow nothing but assumptions, and they only conjecture." (6:116)], we cannot judge beliefs in their hearts to stop them from entering into the Sacred Mosque in Mecca; the only criterion to allow them entry there is the overt adherence to peace and to non-violence. This is the same criterion used when the Qorayish tribe stopped its aggressive fighting and entered into peace; peace is God's religion: "When there comes God's victory and triumph. And you see the people entering God's religion in multitudes." (110:1-2). In these verses addressing Muhammad, we infer that fighters stopped their aggression and embraced peace; Muhammad never knew their hearts to make sure they believed in the Quran or not; he even did not know who the hypocrites around him in Yathreb were: "Among the Desert-Arabs around you there are some hypocrites, and among the inhabitants of Medina too. They have become adamant in hypocrisy. You do not know them, but We know them. We will punish them twice; then they will be returned to a severe torment." (9:101). Thus, the Quranic Chapter 110 tackles the fact that Muhammad witnessed Arabs entering in groups into peace (i.e., Islam in terms of behavior) and performed pilgrimage in peace and within non-violence, and NOT as per Islam in terms of faith inside hearts.    

5- This means that the Sacred Mosque in Mecca should be open to all peaceful people (of any religious affiliation or denomination) without discrimination, so that they feel safe and get to know each other within this peaceful haven. Those who are impure and to be prevented from entering into Mecca are the aggressive polytheistic attackers; God has said the following to believers after the defeat of the aggressive Qorayish: "O you who believe! The polytheists are polluted, so let them not approach the Sacred Mosque after this year of theirs. And if you fear poverty, God will enrich you from His grace, if He wills. God is Aware and Wise." (9:28).

6- Within honoring and revering the Sacred House, security and safety are ordained by God to be enjoyed by pilgrims (and sacrificial animals with them) in their way to Mecca and when they are inside Mecca; hating attackers and violent people who repel people away from God's Kaaba in is not even an excuse to fight them in this sacred location. "O you who believe! Do not violate God's sacraments, nor the Sacred Month, nor the offerings, nor the garlanded, nor those heading for the Sacred House seeking blessings from their Lord and approval. When you have left the pilgrim sanctity, you may hunt. And let not the hatred of people who barred you from the Sacred Mosque incite you to aggression. And cooperate with one another in virtuous conduct and conscience, and do not cooperate with one another in sin and hostility. And fear God. God is severe in punishment." (5:2). 

7- Violence and sacrilege within pilgrimage were committed by desert-Arabs raids on caravans of pilgrims and the Qarmatians ho massacred pilgrims inside Mecca itself (we are currently writing  book on these historical events in relation to violation and desecration of the pilgrimage during the Middle-Ages). In fact, such violence and sacrilege started by the Qorayish tribe before, during, and after Muhammad's lifetime have been continued for centuries by desert-Arabs, and then committed by the Saudis now in the modern era.    

 

Secondly: the Qorayish tribe and repelling people away from the Sacred Kaaba Mosque:

1- Before taking Muhammad as an enemy, the Qorayish tribe lived in prosperity and made lots of profits by controlling pilgrimage and caring for pilgrims and the Kaaba, while other tribes used to fight one another; when Muhammad preached the Quran to them, they rejected the Quranic guidance (which is God's bounty to human beings) to preserve their profits: "Is it this discourse that you take so lightly? And you make your livelihood by deny it?" (56:81-82); "And they say, "If we follow the guidance with you, we will be snatched from our land." Did We not establish for them a Safe Sanctuary, to which are brought all kinds of fruits, as provision from Ourselves? But most of them do not know." (28:57); "Do they not see that We established a Secure Sanctuary, while all around them the people are being carried away? Do they believe in falsehood, and reject the bounty of God?" (29:67); "Let them worship the Lord of this House. Who has fed them against hunger, and has secured them against fear." (106:3-4).

2- The aggression of Qorayish went to an extreme of driving Muhammad and the believers out of Mecca and to attack them when they settled in Yathreb, while stopping them from performing pilgrimage: "Yet why should God not punish them, when they are turning others away from the Sacred Mosque, although they are not its allies? Its rightful allies are the pious; but most of them do not know." (8:34); "It is they who disbelieved, and barred you from the Sacred Mosque, and prevented the offering from reaching its destination..." (48:25). 

 

Thirdly: the KSA follows the steps of Qorayish in repelling people away from the Sacred Kaaba Mosque:

1- When the sinful caliph Omar drove the People of the Book out of Arabia by force and prevented them from ever entering into Mecca to perform pilgrimage, the People of the Book decided to forget all about pilgrimage, though this is a main feature of the religion of Abraham. The false idea spread for centuries that pilgrimage is confined only to 'Muslims' or who we call as the Muhammadans; they also perform pilgrimage to a Satanist mausoleum in the Yathreb mosque ascribed falsely to Muhammad. Omar, a caliph of the Qorayish tribe, is the one who started such crime of repelling people away from the Sacred House in Mecca when he prevented the People of the Book from ever entering into Mecca; caliphs after him imitated his transgression; this is applied now by the Saudi family in our modern era, especially when its Wahabism is the most extremist form of the Sunnite religion of bloodshed, massacres, fanaticism, and terrorism that repels people away from God's Path: the Quran.    

2- Using the present tense in the verse 22:25, God predicts in the Quran that the crime of repelling people away from the Quran and from the Sacred Mosque will go on in all eras by disbelievers. This means that after the Qorayish tribe, disbelievers of another type (i.e., the Al-Saud family now) will control the Sacred House which is ordained by God to be for all people of the world. "As for those who disbelieve and repel from God's Path and from the Sacred Mosque - which We have designated for all humankind equally, whether residing therein or passing through - and seek to commit injustices and sacrilege therein - We will make him taste of a painful torment." (22:25).    

3- In the verse 22:25,  God declares that those who repel others from God's Path and from the Sacred Mosque as disbelievers in terms of aggressive behavior and compulsion in religion and in terms of polytheism within beliefs inside their hearts as they persecute those who do not follow their polytheistic ways. This crime is committed now in our modern eras by the Saudi royal family members.

4- The Qorayish tribe used to brag of its serving pilgrims and pilgrimage despite this tribe's disbelief and repelling people away from God's Path and the sacred Mosque; this applies to the Saudi king and his Saudi family members now: "It is not for the polytheists to attend God's places of worship while professing their disbelief. These-their works are in vain, and in the Fire they will abide. The only people to attend God's places of worship are those who believe in God and the Last Day, and pray regularly, and practice regular charity, and fear none but God. These are most likely to be guided. Do you consider giving water to pilgrims and maintaining the Sacred Mosque the same as believing in God and the Last Day and striving in God's path? They are not equal in God's sight. God does not guide the unjust people." (9:17-19).  

 

Fourthly: a historical overview:

1- The first Saudi state conquered Mecca without fighting by terrorizing its dwellers by first massacring all dwellers of Al-Ta'if city in 1802, and dwellers of Mecca were so frightened that they surrendered and handed over the city to the army of the Al-Saud family. The Wahabi historian Ibn Bishr in his book titled (The Glorious History of Najd) never mentions except few words about the massacre of the dwellers of Al-Ta'if but mentions details of spoils and how the Saudi armies defeated princes ruling many regions and how the prince of Al-Hejaz region, where mecca is situated, surrendered without fighting. Dwellers of Al-Ta'if (men, women, children, and the old people) surrendered without fighting at all, and yet, all of them were massacred by the Saudi fighters to terrorize the dwellers of Mecca by news of such massacres to force them to surrender. 

2- This conquest of Al-Hejaz region drove the Ottoman caliph to enlist the help of the governor of Egypt at the time, Muhammad Ali Pacha, to send the Egyptian army to crush this burgeoning Saudi state, and after many battles, the Egyptian army defeated the Al-Saud army and destroyed the capital, Al-Dariyya, and its prince was captured and sent to Turkey where he was put to death by beheading. 

3- Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud and his Najd Brothers in Sept. 1924 repeated the same crime of massacring all the dwellers of Al-Ta'if (men, women, children, and the old people)after sieging the city for some time, and terrifying news of all atrocities committed there spread all over Arabia and drove dwellers to Mecca to surrender without fighting and Abdul-Aziz and his Najd Brothers entered Mecca, without shooting a bullet, in Oct. 1924. When newspapers in Egypt, Syria, and Iran wrote about Al-Ta'if massacre, Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud sent telegrams signed by his son Feisal to condemn publishing such news; yet, he seized the chance to get rid of the savage Najd Brothers (he defeated them with the help of GB) after they had fought for him to establish his kingdom. Their savagery included sabotage, massacring all people, looting, and putting all captured ones to death at once, and foreign reporters and observers mentioned all these atrocities when the Najd Brothers attacked Kuwait in 1920 and Jordan in 1924. 

 

Fifthly: the Saudi family now and repelling people away from the Sacred Kaaba Mosque and manipulating pilgrimage for political reasons:

1- The Saudi royal family members are disbelievers not only in terms of their raising banners of Islam when they commit aggressions and invade other countries, but also in terms of practicing compulsion in religion and religious persecution as they repel people away from the Quran and from the Sacred Mosque in Mecca.  

2- The Saudi royal family members will never allow the People of the Book to enter Mecca to perform pilgrimage; moreover, they question thoroughly within a sort of inquisition (and for no reason whatsoever) those foreigners who converted to Islam and come to Mecca to perform pilgrimage. 

3- The Saudi royal family members use their controlling Mecca and pilgrimage to serve their political purposes; for instance, they prevented Egyptians, Iraqis, and the Levantines from entering into Mecca during the first Saudi kingdom, and they prevented their foes and enemies among the Muhammadans from entering Mecca in the 20th and the 21st centuries within the third, current Saudi kingdom. Thus, they manipulate pilgrimage for political reasons. They prevented many Egyptians from entering into Mecca within the era of the Egyptian president Nasser, who was hated by the Saudi kings. It happened that they prevented Iranian pilgrims from entering into Mecca for the period (1987-1990) and at one time, the Saudi security forces massacred 400 Iranian pilgrims in the 1980s.     

4- In recent years, the Saudi royal family members have prevented Yemenis, Qataris, and Shiites of Lebanon and Syria for several consecutive pilgrimage seasons.

5- When Saudi royal family members have decided to siege Qatar since the 5th of June, 2017, they prevented the Qataris from entering into Mecca and the UK-based Arab Human Rights Organization asserted that the Saudi authorities refused to be pressurized to make the Qatari pilgrims enter into Mecca and this crossing of all red lines have brought into question the fact that Mecca should not be controlled by one government, family, or ruler. Such preventing  others from entering Mecca shows that the Saudi royal family members have no respect to the Quranic/Islamic sharia laws of pilgrimage nor to the International Law. The Saud authorities actually create obstacles to prevent certain nationalities and groups from ever entering into Mecca.     

6- In contrast, news came in the British Bloomberg network that Israel tries to convince the Saudi kingdom to allow air flights to transport Muslim pilgrims from Israel, as per recommendations of the American president Donald Trump who advised the Saudis to hold close relations with Israel; in fact, Trump criticized that no diplomatic relations and no airlines exist between Israel and the Saudi kingdom, and he urged both countries to get closer in order to cooperate in facing Iran.  

 

Lastly:

  Because of the sin/crime of repelling people away from the Sacred Kaaba Mosque, the caliphs Omar and Othman were assassinated and the so-called companions engaged into the first major civil war until the caliph Ali was assassinated. Because of the sin/crime of repelling people away from the Sacred Kaaba Mosque, the very first Saudi state was destroyed. Because of the sin/crime of repelling people away from the Sacred Kaaba Mosque and away from God's Path (i.e., the Quran), the third current Saudi state, a.k.a. the KSA, will face imminent collapse and downfall in case no real reforms on many levels are introduced in order to avoid bloodbaths and total destruction!   

 

 

"...And They Landed Their People into the House of Perdition" (Quran 14:28)

 

Firstly: exchanging the Quran, which is the bounty of the Lord God, with disbelief:

 God says in the Quran: "Have you not seen those who exchanged the bounty of God with disbelief, and they landed their people into the house of perdition? Hell - they will roast in it. What a miserable settlement." (14:28-29). We assert the following points below.

1- Although the verses 14:28-29 are addressed to Muhammad, they are at the same time also addressing all Quran-believing Muslims everywhere to take heed and ponder this parable. The expression (have you not seen...) does not pertain to the sense of vision, but to the ability to reason, ponder, and reflect with one's mind. Likewise, this parable can generally apply to any people anywhere anytime who reject the bounties of God in this life and are never thankful for them (including guidance of scriptures; e.g., the Quran) and God will penalize them in this life with perdition and in Hell in the Hereafter if they died without proper, sincere repentance.

2- This general mode of addressing all people means that this parable applies to any disbelieving, tyrannical people anywhere in all eras after the revelation/descent of the Quran. In fact, this parable applied twice to the Saudi royal family members as their kingdom collapsed twice (when the first and second Saudi states collapsed), and the third, current Saudi kingdom is also about to collapse soon in the 21st century. Within the collapse of the first Saudi state, the Egyptian army defeated them and destroyed their capital, Al-Dariyya, and they were captured and sent to Egypt in chains, and their Saudi king was sent to the capital of the Ottomans to be beheaded. Within the collapse of the second Saudi state, the Saudi royal family members were scattered in some countries of the Gulf. If some of the Saudi royal family members would survive the third, imminent collapse, they will be scattered around the globe.       

3- This is because they adamantly insist on never drawing lessons from their past; they have exchanged the bounties of God with disbelief; the Quran is the greatest bounty of God rejected by them.  

4- Of course, God's bounties granted to human beings are too many to be counted: "...And if you were to count God's bounties, you would not be able to enumerate them. The human being is unjust and ungrateful." (14:34); "And if you tried to enumerate the bounties of God, you will not be able to count them. God is Forgiving and Merciful." (16:18).

5- The Quran is the Greatest Bounty of God among all His bounties granted to humanity; God in the Quran describes the Quran repeatedly as the Bounty.

5/1: God describes the Quran as the bounty preached all the time to others by Muhammad during his ministry as a prophet: "But proclaim the Bounty of your Lord." (93:11). This Quranic preaching led his enemies to describe Muhammad as an insane person: "By the Bounty of your Lord, you are not insane." (68:2); "So remind. By the Bounty of your Lord, you are neither a soothsayer, nor a madman." (52:29). 

5/2: Within the verses revealed shortly before the death of Muhammad, God describes the Quran as the Bounty fulfilled and granted by God to human beings: "...So do not fear them, but fear Me, that I may complete My Bounty upon you, and that you may be guided." (2:150); "That God may forgive you your sin, past and to come, and complete His Bounty upon you, and guide you to a Straight Path." (48:2); "...Today I have perfected your religion for you, and have completed My Bounty upon you, and have approved Islam as a religion for you..." (5:3).

5/3: God commands believers never to take the Bounty of the Quran as a jest/joke: "...And do not take God's verses for a joke. And remember God's Bounty upon you, and that He revealed to you the Book and Wisdom to teach you. And fear God, and know that God is aware of everything." (2:231).

5/4: In contrast, disbelievers in all eras and locations reject the Quran; this made Muhammad very sad, and God has said to him: "We know that what they say grieves you. It is not you they reject, but it is God's verses that the unjust ones deny." (6:33). This means that the unjust, disbelieving ones inwardly (inside their minds) know that the Quran is the Absolute Truth, but they verbally deny it with their tongues: "Thus We make it pass into the hearts of the criminals. They do not believe in it..." (15:12-13); " Thus We make it pass through the hearts of the criminals. They will not believe in it until they witness the painful torment." (26:200-201). Those disbelievers reject the bounty of the Quran because they believe in Satanist narratives/hadiths and devilish falsehoods, as we infer from these Quranic verses: "...Will they then renounce God's Bounty?...Will they then believe in falsehoods and refuse God's Bounty?" (16:71-72); "...Do they believe in falsehoods and reject the Bounty of God? And who does graver injustice than he who fabricates lies and attributes them to God or calls the Truth a lie when it has come to him? Is there not in Hell a dwelling for the disbelievers?" (29:67-68).   

6- Anyway, the severe torment is inflicted by God when disbelief in God's bounty (i.e., the Quran) reaches the extent of exchanging it with falsehoods and placing such falsehoods above the Quranic Truth: "...Whoever changes the bounty of God after it has come to him - God is severe in punishment." (2:211); "Have you not seen those who exchanged the bounty of God with disbelief, and they landed their people into the house of perdition? Hell - they will roast in it. What a miserable settlement." (14:28-29).

7- This is the trap into which the Saudi royal family members have fallen since 1745 until the present moment. The bounty of Islam/Quran manifests itself in the fact that it is the religion of justice, mercy, peace, and absolute religious freedom; yet, the Al-Saud family members have exchanged this with grave injustices, massacres, invasions, looting, etc. This is why God has penalized them by severe torment twice in this life (when the first and second Saudi states collapsed) and they are now on the verge of an imminent collapse and on the brink of a vast abyss into which they will fall in case no reform is applied.    

 

Secondly: how they exchanged the bounty of the Lord God, i.e., the Quran, with disbelief:

1- Fourteen centuries have passed while the Muhammadans have rejected and abandoned the Quran, and this has led to the fact that the real Islamic call has been eclipsed all the time. We have written before many times that Islam is peaceful behavior with others and calling for peace; within peace reigning within a given society, absolute religious freedom is established and guarantees, and monotheists are thus free to preach (There is no God but Allah) and followers of other religions have the same freedom of proselytization within the framework of peace and absolute religious freedom, as everyone is free to (dis)believe and to practice any rituals without compulsion in religion nor dominating tyrannical clergymen; this achieves mercy in this world as per the Quran and all houses of worship would be safe and secure (see 22:40). God guides those who choose guidance and increases the misguidance of those who choose misguidance. God is the Only One to judge people's faith and religious beliefs on the Last Day; no mortals are to judge people on earth based on their religious affiliation: "If you disbelieve, God is Independent of you, yet He does not approve disbelief on the part of His servants. And if you are thankful, He will approve that in you. No bearer of burden can bear the burden of another. Then to your Lord is your return; and He will inform you of what you used to do. He is aware of what the hearts contain." (39:7).     

2- Islam in terms of behavior (i.e., peaceful demeanor) was embraced by the weak, oppressed ones in Mecca as peace was part of their nature; they enjoyed absolute freedom in the Yathreb city-state led by Muhammad, to the extent that some of them worshiped pagan idols and deities in Yathreb, and the Quran has kept warning them repeatedly: "...So stay away from the abomination of idols...Being true to God, without associating anything with Him..." (22:30-31). The use of the command/verb (stay away) implies that such idols or pagan statues of deities are not to be smashed or destroyed, but to be avoided as real believers are never to come near them; yet, those worshippers did not avoid such idols and God repeats the warning to them (within the last verses of the Quranic revelation) by addressing them as believers (i.e., those who adhered to peaceful behavior and security): "O you who believe! Wine, gambling, idolatry, and mausoleums are abominations of Satan's doing. Avoid them, so that you may prosper. Satan wants to provoke strife and hatred among you through wine and gambling, and to prevent you from the remembrance of God, and from prayer. Will you not desist? Obey God and obey the messenger, and be cautious. If you turn away-know that the duty of Our messenger is clear conveyance." (5:90-92). Thus, we infer that they did not heed the warning and continued in their polytheistic ways, as we infer from the question (will you not desist?), and that they bear full responsibility for their polytheism and never Muhammad, as his sole mission was to convey the message and not to control people.    

3- Hence, it was not difficult for Arabs to embrace God's religion (i.e., to enter into peace), which means peace without clergymen of tyranny controlling people and means absolute religious freedom; this is how Muhammad witnessed their entering into peaceful behavior, as adhering to peace means entering into God's religion: "When there comes God's victory and triumph. And you see the people entering into God's religion in multitudes." (110:1-2).  

4- We understand that the Quran is God's bounty more from this verse: "And hold fast to the rope of God, altogether, and do not become divided. And remember God's bounty upon you; how you were enemies, and He reconciled your hearts, and by His grace you became brethren. And you were on the brink of a pit of fire, and He saved you from it. God thus clarifies His verses for you, so that you may be guided." (3:103). This means that Arabian tribes were warring enemies raiding and fighting one another within endless acts of revenge, but they embraced peace and they should adhere to the rope of God (i.e., the Quran) to be spared the torment of Hell in the Hereafter. 

5- God has sent the Quran to Muhammad to be a mercy for humanity: "We did not send you except as a mercy for the humankind" (21:107); thus, if all human beings would apply the real Quranic sharia of Islam (i.e., higher values like peace, justice, charity, mercy, human dignity, human rights, and absolute religious freedom), they will live in bliss and mercy, without religious or political tyranny.

6- The Wahabi Al-Saud family members exchanged God's bounty with disbelief; the Quran is God's bounty, and this bounty is the Quranic mercy for the humankind, but they exchanged it with massacring and terrorizing all human beings. The first Saudi state considered Wahabis as the only 'Muslims' and all non-Wahabis as infidels who deserve to be fought and massacred within Wahabi jihad, despite the fact that these non-Wahabi victims were peaceful people who never committed any violence or aggression against the Saudi family members. This way, the Saudis and their military troops annexed more lands within Arabia, and they attacked Iraq and the Levant until the first Saudi state collapsed. Within all massacres committed by the Saudi royal family members and their troops, they raised the banners of Islam! Thus, they have manipulated the name of Islam (the religion of mercy, justice, and absolute religious freedom) and exchanged it with terrorism, conquests, invasions, injustices, massacres, and compulsion in religion. This is the worst type of disbelief and rejection of the Quran, and yet, they claim falsely they believe in the Quran!       

7- The first Saudi state lived as per what had remained of the Middle-Ages and Bedouin culture. The third, current Saudi state has been established by the savage Najd Brothers who committed bloodbaths and massacred men, women, children, and elderly people mercilessly, while assuming that their atrocities were part of Islam; thus, they had exchanged the Quranic mercy and bounty with the most horrid form of polytheism and disbelief, which is Wahabism.   

 

Thirdly: how the Saudi royal family members have exchanged the bounty of oil with disbelief: 

1- Another bounty which has emerged inside the third, current Saudi state is oil, but the Saudi royal family members have never been thankful as they insist on disbelief, and this parable in this verse applies to the Saudi kingdom and serves as a warning to it: "And God cites the parable of a town that was secure and peaceful, with its livelihood coming to it abundantly from every direction. But then it turned unappreciative of God's bounties, so God made it taste the robe of hunger and fear, because of what they used to make." (16:112).   

2- The bounty of oil and its revenues made the Saudi kingdom propagate the Wahabi disbelief worldwide, making people reject the bounty of the Lord God, i.e., the Quran, by exchanging it with Wahabi polytheism. The Saudi royal family members spread Wahabism under the name of Islam all over the world, as if Wahabism were Islam; thus, bloodbaths spread everywhere. The Saudi kingdom is responsible for the milling of millions of people since 1902 A.D. until now and for distorting Islam, which is the bounty of God toward the humankind, by distorting and misinterpreting the meanings of Quranic verses.   

3- If the Saudi royal family members did not stop such spread of disbelief and aggression, they will land themselves into the house of perdition: "Have you not seen those who exchanged the bounty of God with disbelief, and they landed their people into the house of perdition? Hell - they will roast in it. What a miserable settlement." (14:28-29),  as always, God says nothing but the Absolute Truth.

 

 

"Have You Not Seen Those Who Exchanged the Bounty of God with Disbelief..." (Quran 14:28)

 

 

Firstly: the meaning of exchanging:

1- Exchanging here in 14:28 means to replace something with something else which is quite the opposite, especially in religion: "Have you not seen those who exchanged the Bounty of God with disbelief, and they landed their people into the house of perdition?" (14:28); "...Whoever exchanges the Bounty of God after it has come to him - God is severe in retribution." (2:211).

2- This meaning refers to exchanging or replacing belief with disbelief while taking Satan as an ally instead of allying oneself to Almighty God: "Will you take Satan and his offspring as allies instead of Me, when they are an enemy to you? Evil is the exchange for the unjust ones." (18:50). This meaning of exchange is referred to within this verses about atonement and repentance and also within destroying ancient nations of the unjust ones: "...and do not exchange the bad for the good..." (4:2); "...Then We exchanged prosperity in place of hardship..." (7:95); "Except for those who repent, and believe, and do good deeds. These - God will replace their bad deeds with good deeds..." (25:70); "But whoever has done wrong, and then exchanged goodness in place of evil. I am Forgiving and Merciful." (27:11). 

3- Celestial, divine religion of God is found exclusively in His Scriptures as the One Truth, and anything else in religion are, without any exceptions, falsehoods, as we infer from these verses: "...There can be no change to God's words..." (6:34); "The Word of your Lord has been completed, in Truth and justice. There is no changing to His words. He is the Hearer, the Knower." (6:115); "And recite what was revealed to you from the Book of your Lord. There is no changing His words, and you will find no refuge except in Him." (18:27). God's words and decrees never change; on the Last Day, those who deserve Hell will never get out of it and this refutes the idea of intercession for Hell-dwellers to get out of Hell: "The decree from Me will not be changed, and I am not unjust to the servants."" (50:29).

4- The transient universe (the earth and heavens) will be destroyed and replaced by an eternal universe/realm with eternal human beings in Hell and in Paradise: "On the Day when the earth is changed into another earth, and the heavens..." (14:48). God will replace fear with security instead for believers who immigrated to flee religious persecution: "...He will restore security in place of their fear..." (24:55). 

5- The idea of exchanging or replacing comes within Quranic stories within other matters: "But the unjust ones among them substituted  words other than those given to them..." (2:59); "...Would you substitute worse for better?..." (2:61); "As for the boy, his parents were believers, and we feared he would overwhelm them with oppression and disbelief. So we wanted their Lord to replace him with someone better in purity, and closer to mercy." (18:80-81); and within the sin of changing written will and testament of dead persons: "But whoever changes it after he has heard it, the guilt is upon those who change it..." (2:181). 

6- Moses' Pharaoh is the imam/leader for all tyrants and aggressive disbelievers and polytheists coming after him; he desired to put Moses to death under the pretext of fearing that Moses would change the ancient Egyptian religion which was based on deifying of pharaohs: "Pharaoh said, "Let me kill Moses, and let him appeal to his Lord. I fear he may change your religion, or spread corruption on earth."" (40:26).

7- God says in the Quran that aggressive polytheistic Arabs follow the methods or the footsteps of Moses' Pharaoh (see 3:11 and 8:52-54). We assert here that the Saudi royal family members follow the footsteps of Moses' Pharaoh and assume they are in the right; they are in fact worse than Moses' Pharaoh because he did not claim to be a Muslims except upon his death by drowning (see 10:90-92), in contrast to the Saudi royal family members who claim to be 'Muslims' and ascribe their deeds to Islam though their deeds contradict the Quran and tarnish its name and they distort meanings of Quranic verses using the religion of Satan, Wahabism; this way they have exchanged the Bounty of God (i.e., the Quran) with Wahabi disbelief and aggression, and they deserve to enter into the house of perdition and they will be pushed by God as per these verses: "Have you not seen those who exchanged the Bounty of God with disbelief, and they landed their people into the house of perdition?" (14:28); ...Whoever exchanges the Bounty of God after it has come to him - God is severe in retribution." (2:211).  

 

Secondly: features of exchanging Quranic sharia legislations with Wahabi terrorist jihad:

 We have tackled this before repeatedly, and we remind readers here again with these brief points below for the sake of comparison.

1- The Meccan polytheists of Qorayish persecuted Muhammad and early believers in Mecca and drove them out of their homes and possessions, and then, they incessantly attacked them in Yathreb with their troops in attempts to force them to revert to polytheism and to reject Islam: "...They will not cease to fight you until they turn you back from your religion, if they can..." (2:217).

2- Most people among the early believers at the time in Mecca were weak, oppressed, helpless ones who used to say: "...Our Lord, deliver us from this town whose people are oppressive..." (4:75). When they immigrated to Yathreb, they at first did not defend themselves against military raids of Qorayish, until permission from God came to them to engage into self-defense fighting because they suffered injustices and were persecuted because of their choice of religion and were expelled from their homes unjustly; see 22:38-40. The aggressive Wahabis repeated the same crimes of the Qorayish polytheists when they fought and massacred people during the first and second Saudi states; ISIS terrorists are Wahabis of today who committed the same crimes in Syria and Iraq, and in Egypt, aggressive Wahabis persecute Copts and Baha'is and drive them out of their homes while raising the banner of 'Islam' and shouting Allahu Akbar or (God is the Greatest!); this means that all these Wahabis have exchanged the Bounty of God (i.e., the Quran) with disbelief and aggression.      

3- The weak ones among the Yathreb city-state led by Muhammad were too frightened and reluctant to engage into self-defense fighting as they got used to bear injustice patiently, and they asked for postponement as they feared death; see 4:77. Thus, they hated to engage into self-defense fighting though it is for their own good; see 2:216, and God has commanded Muhammad to encourage them to engage into self-defense fighting to deter the aggressive polytheists; see 4:84 and 8:65-66.  

4- The Quranic sharia legislations of self-defense fighting prohibit any form of aggression, as God does not love the transgressors; see 2:190. The only thing required was retribution and deterrence (see 2:194) and to preach piety so that no one would exceed limits of retribution (see 2:194 and 5:2) while imploring God to grant them victory over the aggressive polytheists: "...You are our Lord and Master, so help us against the disbelieving people." (2:286). Thus, self-defense fighting stops once aggressors stop their aggression (see 2:192-193 and 8:39); even when Meccan polytheists prevented Muhammad and early believers from pilgrimage, this was not an excuse for the early believers to attack them; see 5:2.

5- God has promised to pardon aggressors when they stop their aggression (see 8:38) as their adherence apparently and overtly to peace means they are brethren to believers and all peaceful people as per Islam (see 9:11).

6- This means that Islam in terms of behavior (i.e., peaceful demeanor with others) is the higher purpose of all Quranic sharia legislations of self-defense fighting against aggressors and attackers. This is why God commands deterrence by being provided with all military might to frighten aggressors and prevent their aggression against peaceful ones from happening in the first place; peaceful nature of weak people encourages evil aggressors to attack them. Thus, a peaceful nation must be strong and powerful in terms of the military might to deter potential enemies and to preserve peace while preventing bloodshed as much as possible, and when enemies call for peace, Muslims must respond likewise even if the enemies were deceitful, and God will protect Muslims who adhere to peace; see 8:69-62.  

7- Another higher purpose of self-defense fighting is to impose the principle of absolute religious freedom for all people in a given nation. Thus, when Wahabi aggressors desire to practice compulsion in religion and to impose their religion on others by force, they must be fought back so that the fact that religion pertains to God only is asserted as He is the Sole Judge of it on the Last Day; see 2:193 and 8:39. This principle of absolute religious freedom for all people is asserted within the context of self-defense fighting that protects all houses of worship in 22:40. 

8- Hence, fighting within Islam is ONLY for the purpose of self-defense; no real Muslims commit aggression by waging wars against a country that never attacked them or because a country has a different religion. Islam in terms of behavior is peace reigning supreme over all citizens within a peaceful country. All Muslims must deal kindly, hospitably, and fairly with all peaceful non-Muslims (see 60:8) while never allying themselves to aggressors who wronged them and expelled them out of their homes (see 60:9).     

9- Within real Islam (i.e., Quranism), indiscriminate fighting and killings against innocent, peaceful civilians are absolutely forbidden within self-defense fighting; see 48:25.  

10- The Saudi Wahabis who established the first, second, and third Saudi states massacred all peaceful ones merely because they were non-Wahabi and massacred all captured ones or POWs; ISIS terrorists now commit the same crimes of sabotage, raping, massacring, enslaving, and looting against civilians based on the cursed Wahabi religion of Satan. In contrast, God in the Quran commands that captured ones or POWs must be treated kindly and released without being ransomed with money or in return for exchanging of captured ones or POWs: "...Then, either release them by grace, or in exchange, until war lays down its burdens..." (47:4). God has rebuke Muhammad severely for releasing some captured ones or POWs in return for ransom money and has addressed kindly those who paid to get released; see 8:67-70. God commands in the Quran that soldiers of the enemies troops who surrendered to be captured and they utter the word of peace, Muslims must help and protect them (and never to kill them), as they now adhere to peace and stopped their aggression, and Muslims are to tell them about God's Word and to release them in safety; see 9:6 and 4:94. Anyone who intentionally kills or murders a peaceful person (i.e., a believer  in terms of peaceful demeanor) will reside in the torment of Hell forever: "Whoever kills a believer deliberately, the penalty for him is Hell, where he will remain forever. And God will be angry with him, and will curse him, and will prepare for him a terrible torment." (4:93).      

 

Thirdly: the difference between self-defense fighting in Quranic sharia legislations and fighting in Wahabi sharia of terror:

1- This difference is lucidly and briefly shown in this verse: "Those who believe fight in the cause of God, while those who disbelieve fight in the cause of Taghut..." (4:76). The Quranic term Taghut refers to tyranny, evil, and transient possessions as fighting in such case is for Satan. Hence, fighting for God's sake is ONLY self-defense endeavors to prevent religious persecution, compulsion in religion, and unjust aggression of attackers, while aiming to establish peace and religious freedom for all. This is what is meant by the Quranic sharia legislations sent to Muhammad as a mercy to all humanity: "We did not send you except as mercy to the humankind." (21:107). 

2- As for aggressive fighting for the sake of evil ways (i.e., for the sake of Satan) is for power, authority, and wealth of this worldly life. In fact, this type of fighting typical of tyrants, conquerors, leaders, and emperors fills history books of humanity: the Hyksos, Thutmose III, Ramses II, Assyrians, the Persians, the Romans, the Arabs (led by the sinful caliphs of Qorayish), the Mongols, Genghis Khan, the crusaders, the Ottomans, the colonial Europeans, Napoléon, Hitler, Mussolini, and Stalin.  

3- Yet, there is this huge difference: secular tyrants and conquerors never used the name of God within their aggression, and we mean those like the Hyksos, Thutmose III, Ramses II, Assyrians, the Persians, the Romans, the Mongols, Genghis Khan, the crusaders, the Ottomans, the colonial Europeans, Napoléon, Hitler, Mussolini, and Stalin. The most unjust ones have been the Arabs (led by the sinful caliphs of Qorayish) who raised banners of religion as a façade to hide their meanness, greed, and hunger for wealth to justify their aggression and conquests; this applies to all theocratic rulers (i.e., crusaders) and caliphs who were also theocrats: the four pre-Umayyad ones, the Umayyads, the Abbasids, the Ottomans, and then the Wahabi Saudi royal family in modern times. The reason of this difference is that secular tyrants and conquerors committed injustices against human beings only, whereas theocratic tyrants/caliphs committed injustices against human beings and a grave injustice against God and tarnished the name of His religion. Thus, they have exchanged the Bounty of the Lord (i.e., God's religion) with disbelief and aggression. Thus, Nazis have no holy book(s), but Wahabis have rejected the Quran and they sanctify books of Malik, Al-Shafei, Al-Bokhary, Ibn Taymiyya, Ibn Abdul-Wahab, Al-Maududy, and Sayed Qutb.            

4- The difference is that secular tyrants and conquerors turn into mere history, or rather lines in history books, and people despise them, whereas theocratic tyrants and conquerors, with the passage of time, turn into gods/deities (e.g., the four so-called 'wise' pre-Umayyad caliphs) and their tyranny and bloodshed become a religion applied in several eras within this earthly religion and its sharia laws that replace and supplant the celestial sharia of God (i.e., the Quran). 

5- This replacement is caused by Satan, the real deity worshipped by polytheists and theocratic tyrants and conquerors who fight for the sake of Satan who gave them the devilish sharia laws to supplant and replace God's Word. Of course, the terrorist Wahabi Sunnite sharia of Satan is being preached, propagated, and taught now in mosques and education as 'jihad' and the very first religious duty that must be applied by Wahabis worldwide. Thus, they ascribe falsehoods to God by turning the Quran (i.e., real Islam) from a mercy to the humankind to a source of terrorizing and massacring the humankind. This is because of exchanging the Bounty of the Lord God (i.e., the Quran) with disbelief and falsehoods (i.e., Wahabism). Thus, instead of increasing piety and peace by uttering reverently the phrase (God is the Greatest!) during the five prayers, Wahabi terrorists and suicide bombers utter this phrase to engage into discriminate killings, massacres, and other heinous terrorist acts against peaceful people worldwide; this is the final outcome of the Saudi Wahabism. 

6- This is why we expect that the Saudi royal family members will be destroyed totally – in case they do not repent.  

 

 

 

Where Is now the Saudi Prince Mishaal Ibn Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud the King of Confiscated Lands in Arabia? 

 

 

Firstly: this dust that causes torments in this life and Hell torment in the Hereafter:

1- Satan deceived Adam by saying to him: "...O Adam, shall I show you the Tree of Immortality, and a kingdom that never decays?" (20:120). Adam and his wife were deceived to eat from this Forbidden Tree and they descended into Earth, from whose dust they were created; the same dust that contains all elements that form bodies of human beings, animals, and plants. The children of Adam have the same tendency to be deceived by the devils and have the same lust to reach immortality and a kingdom that never decays. Satan and devils deceive most of the progeny of Adam within the same method and this render them misguided; they see death occurring to those around them and sparing no one, but they assume wrongly that they never die; they act as if they were never going to die within their existence on Earth. This false hope of being immortal on Earth leads them to struggle over transient possessions. Being brainwashed by the devils, they perceive their sins and bad deeds as if they were good deeds, until they die and feel remorse after it is too late for them.       

2- God says the following about the Earth: "From it We created you, and into it We will return you, and from it We will bring you out another time." (20:55). This means that Adam and his wife, and consequently the rest of all human beings, are created from dust, eating food created from the dust of the Earth, and they copulate and beget children with souls given to them from God, and they are born, grow up, marry, and beget other children, and then, they eventually die, with their bodies return to the dust from which they were originally created and their souls return to the Barsakh realm from which they came in the first place. Within this limited duration of lifetime on Earth, deeds of human beings are recorded by angels, and such records will be the basis of the Day of Judgment. The vast majority of human beings are losers within this test of life, because they deified and sanctified the dust from which they were created and on which they used to tread, and they died and their bodies have turned into dust; it is the same dust that fed them and from which they were created and on which they used to tread.          

3- Because of this dust, most people commit many injustices and fight and struggle against one another for the sake of owning this dust; they also commit injustice against Almighty God when they worship, deify, and sanctify mortals created from dust like them and when they use dust and other material created from it to fabricate gods and deities, such as pagan idols and mausoleums worshipped by polytheists who seek aid from such godheads. Part of this injustice against Almighty God is to establish fabricated, man-made, earthly religions that deify and sanctify such products made of dust within devilish/Satanist revelations/hadiths/narratives ascribed falsely to God or to Muhammad.  

4- Local history of human beings within any region or country is nothing but wars that broke out mainly because of this dust (i.e., the transient world). Tyrants ascend to power in a given country and assume that they own stretches of lands and people living on them! They feel as if they were owners of the homeland and they embody the homeland or the state and the nation; those who dare to question these tyrants are deemed as enemies/traitors of the homeland. Such lies are based on the fact that tyrants desire to own the dust of the stretches of lands on which citizens live. Where are tyrants now who were watched and heard in media worldwide? They are dust now; they died and turned into decomposed matter that eventually turned into dust.     

5- Within the regional level, human history is filled with nothing but wars and misery caused mainly because of the struggle for the sake of dust. Tyrants desire to invade other neighboring countries and regions to annex new stretches of lands to their kingdoms through warfare, while raising different nationalistic, religious, or racial banners. Eventually, tyrants inevitably die. Where are tyrants of the past? They are dust now; they died and turned into decomposed matter that eventually turned into dust.

6- Within the international level, human history is filled with nothing but wars and misery caused mainly because of the struggle for the sake of dust. Empires were formed by conquering stretches of land owned by others under many pretexts of nationalism, race, or religion. The pretexts of race and nationalism end eventually, whereas the ones based on earthly religions persist and remain, making the heinous crimes of conquests and invasions as 'jihad'. This is the main problem of the Muhammadans from the era of Abou Bakr of Qorayish to the era of the 'caliph' Abou Bakr Al-Baghdadi of ISIS. Where are those caliphs now? They are dust now; they died and turned into decomposed matter that eventually turned into dust.

7- The local, regional, and international human history is nothing but misery for billions of people. What is the number of victims of Arab conquests in areas from borders of China to borders of south of France? What is the number of victims of the Pharaonic, Assyrian, Persian, Roman, Mongolian, and Ottoman empires? What is the number of victims of conquests of the Greek Alexander the Great, Caesar of the Romans, Cambyses II of Persia, Darius of Persia, and Genghis Khan and Hulago of the Mongols? What is the number of victims of the Spanish colonialism in the New World, Africa, and Asia? What is the number of victims of the European colonialism worldwide? What is the number of victims of Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini, and the Romanov family? What is the number of victims of WWI and WWII? What is the number of victims of the Japanese invasion of China, the Philippines, and islands of South-Eastern Asia? What is the number of victims of American invasions of Vietnam, Iraq, Central America, and South America? Since the era when humanity knew warfare, misery has never been confined to bloodbaths, but also to those who remain alive to suffer being robbed, raped, humiliated, enslaved, and tortured; those living ones who live such misery feel that their being killed would have been better. What is the number of victims of tyrants in the East and in the West? Tyrants who oppress their nations terrorize citizens by incarceration and torture in prisons and impose impoverishment on them to keep them busy to make ends meet and never would have time and energy to demand political rights or any other rights. All such miseries are caused essentially because of the struggle for owning dust. Eventually tyrants die and turn into dust. Where are tyrants of the past now?  They are dust now; they died and turned into decomposed matter that eventually turned into dust.

8- All local, regional, and international tyrants assume wrongly that they own stretches of lands and people living on it; it is important for them to own and control citizens as "subjects" so that citizens are deprived from owning stretches of lands in their own country; savagery leads some tyrants to commit genocide to steal stretches of lands from their original owners: the USA did so with the Red Indians, and Spain before the USA committed the same crime for some time. Hence, dust or earth is their god/deity, over which they fight and massacre one another until they turn into dust in the same land. They are dust now; they died and turned into decomposed matter that eventually turned into dust.

 

Secondly: worshiping dust within Saudi confiscation of stretches of lands:

1- The Saudi prince Mishaal Ibn Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud died in 2017, leaving behind one trillion and 430 million SR of cash money, in addition to companies and stretches of lands he confiscated for himself; his title was the king of confiscated lands of Arabia, as he confiscated the biggest number of stretches of land within the Saudi kingdom established by his father, Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud. Where is this Saudi prince now? He is dust now; he died and turned into decomposed matter that eventually turned into dust, and his confiscated stretches of lands (the dust he amassed) never benefited him to avoid death. 

2- The Saudi royal family members typically practice (as if this were their right!) this confiscation of stretches of lands owned by the Saudi state or by individuals. The KSA, the name of the Saudi kingdom, gives the impression that the Saudi royal family members own all stretches of land inside Arabia. This is why Saudi princes and their cronies among the high-rank officials compete within confiscation of stretches of lands and walling them, and then , they sell them to citizens or to the Saudi State to build projects. Since they are the ones to decide to build projects or to know first that the Saudi state intends to build projects, this or that Saudi prince would readily confiscate stretches of lands to divide them and to sell them to the Saudi state or to citizens (for projects and housing) at high prices! The Saudi royal family members assume that such swindling is 'legal' and 'legitimate' as they originally own the stretches of lands and people living on them!

3- As per published records, stretches of lands confiscated by The Saudi family members are enough to house 15 million citizen, whereas 80% of the citizens are deprived of owning houses and they depend on rented houses, though the KSA is one of the richest countries worldwide with a vast area of more than 2 millionkm2. a frequent joke within social media is about that man who told his friend that he dreamed of being surrounded by confiscated stretches of lands in the desert, and his friend told him this is not a dream; this is life inside the Saudi kingdom! 

4- Those obsequious ministers and the high-rank officials who serve the Saudi family members imitate their masters in confiscating stretches of land using their authority and power. The crisis of stretches of land exacerbated because of such confiscations; even the Saudi family members had to restore some stretches of land (whose areas surpassed that of Qatar, Bahrain, Lebanon, and Comoros combined together!) from such ministers and the high-rank officials within the period 2010-2015, within 12 cities and governorates. These stretches of land worth 2.3 trillion SR and their areas (about 1.5 billion km2) surpass the hundredfold of areas of the major European capitals.   

5- Yet, it is impossible that the governmental sectors would interfere in stretches of land confiscated by Saudi princes, especially the elderly princes, and Mishaal Ibn Abdul-Aziz in particular, before his death. 

 

Lastly:

1- This is the worship of dust initiated by the founder of the Saudi kingdom, Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud, when he conquered, invaded, and occupied lands of others and made these lands a private ownership to his family members especially his sons who vie for owning as many stretches of land as possible.

2- Eventually, when any Saudi prince meets his death, he will say the following upon dying: "Until, when death comes to one of them, he says, "My Lord, send me back. That I may do right in what I have neglected."..." (23:99-100) and the response will be as follows: "...By no means! It is just a word that he utters. And behind them is Barsakh, until the Day they are resurrected." (23:100). The corpse of any Saudi prince is turned into decomposed matter that reeks foul stench and is gradually turned in to dust. 

3- On the Last Day, God will say the following to those worshipers of dust and worshipers of Satan: "Did I not covenant with you, O Children of Adam, that you shall not worship the Devil? That he is your sworn enemy? And that you shall serv"LTR">  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

CHAPTER III: The Collapse of the Al-Saud Family in an Analytical Vision

 

On The Dependence of M. Ibn Salman on Mercenaries: An Overview on the Link among Armies, Wealth, and Authority

 

Firstly: about Islam:

 Within Islam (i.e., the Quran), fighting is allowed ONLY in cases of self-defense and thus deemed jihad fighting for God's sake, especially to restore absolute religious freedom and to stop religious persecution. Accordingly, we assert the following points.  

1- fighting for God's sake can NEVER be combined with fighting for spoils, money, and invasion. Within the Quranic Chapter 8, revealed after the battle of Badr (when believers of Yathreb city-state attacked a trade caravan of the Qorayish tribe to restore their confiscated money), God asserts the way spoils are distributed and prohibits making worldly possessions or spoils as reason for fighting; see 8:1-2 and 8:41-69. When those early believers forgot this important lesson and were defeated in the battle of Uhud because many of them sought worldly possessions or spoils; see 3:152. Hence, the Quranic sharia laws impose that believers perform jihad with their money for God's sake and NOT to fight for loot or spoils.    

2- Jihad fighting of self-defense for God's sake is voluntary and not obligatory; those who are reluctant to participate are punished by being prevented from the honor of engaging into self-defense fighting in the future; see 9:83-84. Likewise, donating money for fighting for God's sake is voluntary and never obligatory; those who are reluctant to donate money in such endeavors are punished by being prevented from the honor of engaging into self-defense fighting in the future; see 9:53-54.   

3- Within the above freedom, the Quran urges true believers to engage into self-defense jihad fighting (with their souls and money) to eliminate religious persecution and to face aggressors for the sake of God in return for Paradise in the Hereafter; see 2:214, 3:142, 9:14-16, 9:111, 61:4, and 61:10. 

4- Many of the weak ones in Arabia during Muhammad's lifetime converted to Islam only in terms of peaceful behavior while enjoying absolute religious freedom to the extent that they worshipped 'holy' mausoleums, drank wine, and gambled; see 22:30 and 5:90-91. Those weak ones were very reluctant to engage into self-defense fighting and God has urged them to engage into it and severely rebuked them for disobedience; see 8:65, 4:84, and 9:38-41. This is the same stance of the hypocrites; see 9:42-55, 9:81, and 9:86-99. Hypocrites in Yathreb used to be stingy and never to donate for self-defense jihad endeavors, and God has threatened and rebuked them severely; see 9:67, 9:81, 63:7, 47:38, and 57:7-11.   

5- The Qorayish tribe in Mecca hated Islam for economic reasons (see 56:82) though this tribe knew that the Quran is the Truth (see 28:75) and it attacked and persecuted early believers inside Mecca to force them to forsake Islam (2:217).

6- Despite of the above point, the early believers achieved military victory and this caused peace (i.e., Islam in terms of peaceful demeanor) to reign in Arabia as wars stopped when the Qorayish tribe saw that its economic and political interests entailed concerting to Islam (i.e., peaceful behavior). Once Muhammad died. The Qorayish tribe managed to restore its control over Arabs within the rule of the four pre-Umayyad caliphs. In fact, The Qorayish tribe managed to convince rebellious, furious, hungry, and belligerent desert-Arabs who hated its control and rule to channel their force to invade other nations for looting and spoils and to guarantee their entering into 'paradise' by forcing conquered nations to choose to convert to Islam, to pay tribute/taxes to keep their faith and be ruled by Arabs, or to be massacred! This has been the Satanist equation to convince desert-Arabs to join Arab armies and troops to invade other countries within the reign of the caliphs Abou Bakr, Omar, and Othman. This led to unprecedented military victory and Arab conquests led to the emergence of the very first Arab empire. Later on, Desert-Arabs rebelled against the corrupt caliph Othman and assassinated him and they fought against one another within the first Arab civil war during the reign of the caliph Ali.       

 

Secondly: how the special concept of Islamic jihad differs from the faulty one common among people today:

1- Thus, the Arabs who fought against one another for loot for centuries before Islam stopped their belligerence only temporarily shortly before Muhammad's death, who died after seeing them entering into peace in groups (see the Quranic Chapter 110). Once Muhammad died, Qorayish restored its control over Arabia and unified and convinced Arabs to return to their old ways of raiding and looting within a Satanist religious ideology of fighting for loot, while falsely raising banners of Islam. Such Arab military forces threatened the Byzantines and the Persians at the time and an Arab empire emerged within disobeying the Quran and the emergence of earthly man-made Sunnite and Shiite religions that contradict the Quran.      

2- Hence, Arabs returned to their old ways of mobilizing as soldiers into an army led by rulers for the sake of loot, money, wealth, authority, and power by using any racial, nationalistic, or religious ideology. Powerful, strong rulers satisfy their soldiers by sharing spoils and wealth with them, and this makes their soldiers serve them with loyalty and devotion. In contrast, weak, affluent, and corrupt rulers are controlled by powerful military leaders who may confiscate wealth, authority, and power and might assassinate weak rulers.     

3- This rule mentioned above applies to theocratic caliphates from Abou Bakr to the Fatimids and the Ottomans and to dynasties from the Ayyubids to the Saudi royal family members, and from Andalusia to the Middle East. 

 

Thirdly: some examples from history:

1- The so-called 'wise' four pre-Umayyad caliphs manipulated religious banners to commit the crimes of Arab conquests; the caliph Omar was just and fair only toward Arabs and unjust toward non-Arabs. When the caliph Othman became corrupt and deprived Arabs of spoils and money, they rebelled against him and assassinated him later on. This means that army soldiers and fighters must have shares of wealth that would satisfy them.  

2- The Umayyad caliphate had its armies from among Arab tribes to continue the Arab conquests and to fight against its foes and rivals inside the Arab empire. Strong Umayyad caliphs satisfied their soldiers and fighters with lots of money gifts and other presents and they had stricken a balance between the two major factions of Arab tribes (i.e., the Adnanites and the Qahtanites). When such a balance was lost and the Qahtanites felt they were wronged and suffered injustices, they joined the rebels who managed to bring about the collapse of the Umayyad caliphate.

3- The army of the Abbasid caliphate had mostly soldiers from the Qahtanites and some Persian soldiers and many Persian military leaders and some Arab military leaders; strong Abbasid caliphs managed to strike a balance among soldiers in authority and money gifts. When the two brothers and rivals Al-Ameen and Al-Maamoun, sons of the caliph Harun Al-Rasheed, engaged into war by proxy, Al-Maamoun as the victorious caliph lost the balance by favoring the Persian soldiers and military leaders and he excluded Arabs. The balance was temporarily regained by the Abbasid caliphate Al-Motassim who introduced Turkish soldiers and military leaders. When the weak, corrupt, and affluent Abbasid caliph Al-Motawakil relied ONLY on Turkish soldiers and military leaders, they assassinated him. This caliph was succeeded by many affluent, corrupt, and weak caliphs who were controlled by Turkish soldiers and military leaders who assassinated, dethroned, and plucked the eyes of many caliphs with hot iron! Turkish tribes and military leaders established their own independent domains and states away from the weak Abbasids; e.g., the Tulunids, the Ikhshidids, and the Seljuks. Armies and military troops at the time included only Turkish soldiers and military leaders. In each of such states, a powerful military leader would emerge and establish it and then his affluent, corrupt, weak successors would be controlled by the Turkish military leaders.              

4- The Fatimids of North Africa established their theocratic Shiite caliphate and formed an army and military troops of Shiites who fought bravely in the banner of the Shiite religion to conquer and annex Egypt and the Levant. When the Fatimid caliphs became weak, corrupt, and affluent, the religious ideology waned and the caliphs were controlled by strong and powerful military leaders.   

5- Other rulers raised the banners of military jihad against the crusaders, like the Zengids who rebelled against the Turkish Seljuks who ruled the Levant and northern Iraq and replaced the Seljuks in the throne of the Levant and northern Iraq and then invaded Egypt. The ruler Nor-Eddine of the Zengids fought and defeated the crusaders' king of Jerusalem Amalric I in Egypt, as both rulers desired to invade Egypt. The Kurdish military leader Saladin ruled Egypt for the Zengids and then rebelled against them to establish the Ayyubid dynasty after the death of Nor-Eddine. Saladin took over lands of the Zengids and he established a strong military army that helped him to defeat the crusaders in the name of jihad. Once Saladin died, the military jihad against crusader waned. Saladin's brother, the sultan Al-Adil, dethroned Saladin's son in Egypt and ruled instead and he ruled the Levant as well, but his military army and troops grew weaker; he had to buy and train Mamelukes (enslaved male youths bought with money and trained as soldiers) in greater numbers more than the one owned by Saladin, as Al-Adil knew that their Kurdish Ayyubid dynasty needed military protection. When Al-Adil died, his sons fought against one another and allied themselves to crusaders who still kept coastal cities in the Levant. Those weak, affluent, corrupt sons of Al-Adil were controlled by their Mameluke military leaders. The Mamelukes assassinated the last Ayyubid sultan, Turan Shah, and they established the Mameluke caliphate instead of the Ayyubid one of their former masters. Mameluke sultans bought so many Mamelukes to serve them and ruled Egypt and the Levant. Mameluke sultans led their armies and military troops themselves and very few Mameluke sultans managed to leave the throne to any affluent, weak sons, as the powerful military leaders among other Mamelukes would be enthroned by the power of their swords and soldiers. This means that military leaders of the military troops and armies confiscated wealth and power during the Mameluke Era.             

6- So many Turkish tribes came from the Far East to Asia Minor, the Levant, and Iraq, and the Turks of Asia Minor converted to Sunnite Sufism, which was the dominant religion at the time that was supposed to be 'Islam'. Those Sunnite-Sufi Turks established their military armies and troops under the banner of military jihad against the Byzantines who were weak within their limited stretches of lands in Asia and Europe and their capital, Constantinople. The Turkish leader of these Turkish tribes and armies was Othman, and he established the Ottoman caliphate under the banner of jihad against Europe, and he managed to conquer and annex the Levant, Egypt, North Africa, Hejaz (where Mecca is located) and he controlled the Red Sea and most coasts of the Mediterranean Sea. Of course, the tribe of this leader/sultan Othman did not include so many soldiers; he had to buy young male slaves (and male children) to be trained as soldiers, in the Janissary army, who were very loyal to him as their sultan who led all their battles as their military leader as well. The Ottomans imposed heavy taxes and tributes on their subjects in Europe, Asia, and Africa. Those military leaders of the Janissary army later on controlled weak, affluent, and corrupt Ottoman caliphs and managed all affairs of the Ottoman caliphate. The Ottoman caliphate was deemed as the sick man of Europe; GB kept it alive for a while and protected it from Russia so that the British (and the French) would manage later on to invade some countries of the Middle-East in the suitable time.         

7- These examples from history are repeated within world history of, for instance, China, Europe, and Russia. The same applies to the first and second Saudi states and the third, current Saudi state. 

8- Hence, when the Saudi crown-prince M. Ibn Salman has involved his Saudi kingdom within the American plans against Iran, he knows he has no real, reliable military army; he has to imitate the affluent, corrupt, and weak rulers before him by relying on mercenaries imported from the First World countries (like Blackwater mercenaries) or imported from the Third World countries (mercenaries from Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh, Jordan, or Egypt). M. Ibn Salman will not be satisfied by only allying himself to tyrants within the neighboring countries; they are allies whose loyalty is bought by lots of huge bribes. M. Ibn Salman needs an army of mercenaries to be under his command to prevent the collapse of the Saudi kingdom and to engage into a regional war after taking the green-light from the USA.      

 

Lastly:

1- These questions persist: would armies of mercenaries sacrifice their lives for the sake of an affluent, corrupt, reckless, impetuous, arrogant, and haughty man like the Saudi crown-prince M. Ibn Salman?! Would such armed mercenaries who guard the life of M. Ibn Salman in return for exorbitant fees be content with such money and would not demand more money? Can such mercenaries be trusted to guard the life of M. Ibn Salman if his foes pay them more money? Can such mercenaries have any honor, loyalty, or conscience? The loyalty of any mercenaries (by definition) can be purchased by anyone who pays more money; thus, arms carried by the mercenaries recruited by the Saudi family might be easily pointed at M. Ibn Salman himself.   

2- Is not that true? Of course it is true!   

 

 

 

Where Are Those Army Soldiers Who Would Readily Sacrifice Their Life in Defense of the Affluent, Corrupt Saudi Family? 

 

 

Firstly: a powerful army versus a weak army:

1- Powerful countries are those with powerful nations feared by the governments and where citizens are NOT afraid of the governments. Powerful countries have governments that serve citizens whose parliamentary representatives check and judge the performance of governments. In such cases, no one is above the laws formulated by parliamentary representatives elected within free, transparent elections. Citizens in such free countries are happy to pay taxes, as parliamentary representatives  as well as the police and the army serve citizens and protect their security. The armies of these free countries are powerful and defend their homelands with all their might; the homeland is not only a stretch of land; rather, it is citizens who are equal within duties and rights. Thus, soldiers in armies of such free countries defend their homelands as they feel a true sense of belonging. This applies, for instance, to Israel, feared by all Arab rulers. Israel has democratic elections and its powerful army is in constant wars since 1948; yet, it never imposes emergency laws or any exceptional laws. Arab tyrants rule until they die or get ousted, but Israel and the USA have many presidents and rulers without problems. Israeli soldiers fight in defense of a country (not defending rulers and ministers) in which they take pride as their true homeland in which they live with dignity. Hence, Israel is the only model of a powerful democratic country in the Middle-East.  

2- Weak countries are the ones owned and controlled by tyrants who monopolize wealth, authority, and power and control citizens. Laws in such weak countries are formulae to protect tyrants, and penal laws are used to terrorize and intimidate citizens. The police in such weak countries humiliate and torture citizens instead of serving them. Armies in such weak countries confiscate arms and weapons and takes money from taxes from citizens and take pride in fighting non-violent, weak, poor citizens using such arms and weapons in case of peaceful demonstrations, as those who oppose tyrants are deemed as enemies who must be eliminated. Such armies in weak countries cannot possibly face armed rebels.   

 

Secondly: there is no real army inside the Saudi kingdom to protect it against the imminent collapse:

1- Saudi Arabia is the third country worldwide (after the USA and China) in military expenditure; it has countless piles of weapons and the Saudi army comprises 440 thousand men. Yet, this Saudi army is very weak and its only achieved victory is to quell weak, unarmed citizens of Arabia who live in a kingdom owned by the affluent, extravagant, corrupt Saudi family members. The proof of the fact that this Saudi army is very weak is that the Saudi kingdom sought the help of the USA when the Saudi family members were terrified by Saddam Hussein in the 1990s. In fact, the Saudi family never wage a war except by proxy within its allies who defend the Saud kingdom. the only true arm of the Saudi family members is money; they use lots of money to wage wars inside and outside the Saudi kingdom. the Saudi army consists of mercenaries who belong to different nationalities and led by leaders from the Saudi family members and their cronies. Hence, such Saudi 'military' leaders have no military experience at all; they specialize only in getting bribes within deals of buying weapons. The Saudi family members spread bloodbaths outside the Saudi kingdom by proxy by using its allies and its organizations to destroy any foes. Even in the Saudi war waged on Yemen, the Saudis use warplane bombardments; they have no real soldiers as the Saudi army of mercenaries cannot face man-to-man combats in battlefields and cannot invade stretches of lands, unlike the case with other armies that are allies of the KSA.              

2- The Saudi family members can establish a security apparatus to terrorize, intimidate, and torture people; this has happened already. Yet, they cannot establish a real army who will defend the Saudi kingdom against any aggressors or against its imminent downfall. Since such real army does not exist, the Saudi kingdom is now on the brink of collapse.   

3- We mean a real Saudi army of faithful soldiers who are devoted to the defense of the Saudi state, as was the case within the Saudi army of the first Saudi state who fought bravely against the Egyptian armies of M. Ali Pacha for years before being defeated by the Egyptian troops with honor. These soldiers of the Saudi army of the first Saudi state had their Wahabi faith which was assumed by them to be real Islam; they used to assume that they were the only 'true' Muslims on Earth and they had to fight the 'infidels'. At such an era, Saudi princes and family members fight along with their army and troops, and fighters had 4/5 of the spoils in the battlefield after victories were achieved. Fighters at the time used to call princes with their proper names without titles; all of them were brethren in religion. This is the type of real, devoted army soldiers we mean in the previous point. During the second Saudi state, Wahabism waned and princes fought to restore the kingdom of their fathers; later on, princes fight against one another as each sought the throne for himself, and their kingdom collapsed eventually as a result. Within the era of the founder, Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud, Wahabism has been revived and taught to the savage, brutal Wahabi fighters called the Najd Brothers. Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud used to fight with them in most battles and they were loyal to him, they even called him with his proper name without titles; yet, once he became an enthroned tyrant who never consulted them in the conduct of affairs as his partners, they rebelled and revolted against him. After he defeated and crushed them, he named his kingdom as Saudi Arabia, to declare that his family owns the kingdom.       

4- After the death of Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud, the Saudi family members never had a real Saudi army. Oil revenues rendered the Saudi family members very affluent, extravagant, and pampered who assume they own people as their slaves. The Saudi family members know very well that their army of mercenaries is a mere decoration or an ornament; they cannot take the risk to fight with such army of untrusted mercenaries and fake soldiers in real wars. Such weak soldiers know nothing but to play musical instruments to entertain the Saudi royal family members.   

 

Thirdly: the three obstacles that hinder the existence of a powerful  army of trustworthy soldiers who would protect the Saudi family from collapse:

 

(A) Its name (the KSA):

1- It is the only country in the world that names the state after the royal family name; this indicates that this family owns the land and the nation. Other democratic or tyrannical countries make their nationalities for all citizens living inside the given country equally; we mean that there are Egyptian people in Egypt, Finnish people in Finland, and Ugandan people in Uganda. We find the exact opposite in the Saudi kingdom as the nation there are (Saudis); they are named as such to indicate they are owned by the Saudi royal family. Hence, being (Saudis) is not a proper nationality at all. In tyrannical countries, however haughty and arrogant tyrants and generals are, they are part of the citizens in a given country; in contrast, inside the Saudi kingdom, the royal family lives in one realm and all the rest of people are second-class species in another different realm, within the culture of enslavement where slaves cannot be made equal to their masters the Saudi princes.   

2- It might be acceptable that the Saudi family members (about 11 thousand people) defend their kingdom themselves (like defending the herd of cattle by shepherds), but it is unacceptable that the Saudi family members that own people and lands in Arabia would demand that people enroll into an army to defend the Saudi kingdom themselves. No men inside Arabia would be foolish enough to sacrifice their lives for the sake of defending the affluent, corrupt, arrogant, haughty, and oppressive Saudi family members who confiscate all wealth and money and never provide any rights or life of dignity to people living in Arabia. Hence, it is hardly expected that the Saudi kingdom would establish a real army of devoted loyal soldiers who will willingly sacrifice their lives to defend the kingdom against its imminent collapse.      

 

(B) Its nature as an aggressive country:

1- Tens of tyrannical countries inside Africa, Asia, and Latin America are isolated and never commit acts of aggression against other countries or interfere in their internal affairs. 

2- The tyrannical Saudi kingdom does the exact opposite; it has the existential fear all the time of being on the verge of imminent downfall; it has collapsed twice and the Saudi family members do not wish to witness a third collapse. This is why Saudi Arabia deliberately weakens the neighboring countries and at the same time spreads and propagates its Wahabi ideology worldwide to win to its side more allies and supporters and to get more influence everywhere. 

3- Moreover, the Saudi family members have used their oil revenues to make the Saudi kingdom appear as the religious leader of the 'Islamic' world and the political leader of the Arab world. This is a catastrophe in the full sense of the term; how come that such corrupt, affluent, and arrogant royal family would assume such a high stature?   

4- The Saudi kingdom has used its leadership, influence, and wealth (but NOT its army; it has no real army at all) to spread corruption and massacres worldwide; consequently, the number of its foes and enemies has increased even among the Wahabis themselves. We are talking here about the Saudi royal family members who manipulate their great influence (with their ideology, money, and oil) worldwide.  

 

(C) Its Wahabi religion:

1- The Saudi kingdom has propagated and spread Wahabism worldwide as if it were the 'only true' Islam, and most Wahabi extremists are now the arch-enemies of the Saudi family.

2- What is very dangerous here is that such Wahabi extremist fighters, jihadists, and suicide bombers, who are truly devoted to Wahabism, assume that once they die, they enter into the 'Wahabi paradise' where houris wait for them with their open arms (and their open legs!). In contrast, the hypocritical Wahabi sheikhs, clergymen, and preachers serving the Saudi family members are the ones who deceive the deluded youths to turn them into suicide bombers, while those Wahabi hypocrites and their children enjoy luxuries of the earthly life instead of being eager to commit suicide to enter into the Wahabi paradise of houris! Within the third current Saudi state, Wahabism is a weapon used by rebels to fight against the Saudi royal family; this has begun by the Wahabi Najd Brothers who revolted against Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud and the Wahabi terrorist Juhayman Al-Otaybi who invaded the Sacred Kaaba Mosque in Nov. 1979. The Saudi Wahabism has spread suicide bombers worldwide; most of the criminals in the 9/11 terrorist attacks in the USA were Saudis, and most ISIS terrorists are Saudis as well. In Aug. 2009, a Wahabi terrorist attempted to assassinate the prince M. Ibn Nayef, the former Saudi interior minister, within a suicide bombing in a Jeddah palace owned by the prince; the terrorist had hidden explosives in his rectum and anal canal, but as he blew himself up, M. Ibn Nayef survived with some wounds. This means that suicide bombers can plot to get admitted to any prince's palace. Suicide bombers within the Wahabi opposition movements in the 1990s committed several terrorist crimes inside the Saudi kingdom. Those terrorists with suicidal tendencies have been sent now from inside the Saudi kingdom by the Saudi royal family members to Syria and Iraq to massacre Shiites there by joining the forces of ISIS and Al-Nusra Front. Soon enough, such Wahabi terrorists will return to the Saudi kingdom to revolt against it and they will be more than willing to explode their bodies inside Saudi Arabia and to massacre the Saudi royal family members.    

3- What is highly very dangerous here is that as the Saudi king Salman and his son the crown-prince are willing to disown and discard Wahabism and to adopt the so-called ''moderate Islam'', this will provoke the fury of the Wahabi arch-enemies of the Saudi family; this might lead to the emergence of waves of Wahabi rebels and suicide bombers who resent the fact that both the Saudi king and the Saudi crown-prince kneel before the Americans and reject Wahabism (which is deemed by Wahabi terrorists as if it were the 'only true' Islam).    

4- What is terribly dangerous here is that the very weak, incompetent Saudi army cannot be used by the Saudi family to face such Wahabi extremist fighters, jihadists, and suicide bombers, who are truly devoted to Wahabism. 

5- What is extremely dangerous here is that the Saudi kingdom would have nothing but to face such Wahabi extremist fighters, jihadists, and suicide bombers, who are truly devoted to Wahabism, with mercenaries like the 'Christian' Blackwater mercenaries.  

 

 N.B.: When we describe the Blackwater mercenaries as ''Christian'', we only refer to how much Wahabis hate any non-Muslims, or rather any non-Wahabis. We do not imply that those mercenaries are indeed Christians in the true sense of the term. 

 

LASTLY:

 It is impossible that this arrogant, haughty, affluent, corrupt Saudi family would find a real army of trustworthy soldiers to defend its existence; such a family will find nothing but mercenaries. This point is tackled in our next article. 

 

 

What a Disgrace! The 'Christian' (Blackwater) Mercenaries Arrest and Torture Senior Saudi Princes!

 

 

Introduction:

1- Those senior Saudi princes (from M. Ibn Nayef to Mutaib Ibn Abdullah) remained until recently like pharaohs who control everything in the Saudi kingdom and the Saudi royal family. Now many Saudi princes are being humiliated in ways never imagined before in their worst nightmares; they are being arrested by the 'Christian' (Blackwater) mercenaries whose worldwide notoriety is known to all. In fact, the Blackwater company includes thousands of mercenaries and offer its 'security' services to many regimes worldwide (especially in the Middle-East and Asia) within its quasi-military empire. The Blackwater company has been involved in violations against civilians, especially killing some Iraqi civilians within operations during the American invasion of Iraq.      

2- The fact that the Saudi crown-prince, M. Ibn Salman, enlisted the help of Blackwater company signifies that he never trusts the Saudi security, the Saudi royal guards, nor the Saudi army. In  contrast, in the 1990s, many Wahabis inside the Saudi kingdom expressed their fury when the 'Christians' soiled the Saudi land of 'Islam' and Mecca, as the Saudi royal family members enlisted the help of American marines against the threat posed by Saddam Hussein when he invaded Kuwait. Now, the Blackwater mercenaries arrest senior Saudi princes upon commands of the king Salman and his son the crown-prince.  

3- Those arrested princes are being interrogated by the new Saudi State Security Apparatus established by M. Ibn Salman managed by Egyptian experts and on top of them all is the former Egyptian Interior Minister Habib Al-Adly who has been smuggled to the Saudi kingdom; this means that the Saudi regime enlists the help of former Egyptian Interior Ministers to work inside the Saudi kingdom as experts to help oppress the citizens of Arabia. This means that the crown-prince does not find or trust any Saudi security men in the crackdown or purge he undertakes now inside Saudi Arabia under the banner of an anti-corruption campaign.     

4- We are surprised by the piece of news mentioned in the Middle-East Eye website (www.middleeasteye.net) that some detained and interrogated senior Saudi figures are being savagely mistreated, tortured, and beaten. Some of them have been hospitalized, according to the known British journalist David Hirst within this report in Middle East Eye website titled "Senior Saudi figures tortured and beaten in purge". Sources in Riyadh and within the royal palace assert that the scale of this crackdown of the so-called 'anti-corruption' campaign is bigger than the Saudi authorities have revealed; more than 500 men have been arrested and more are being arrested on a daily basis since more than a week. In fact, tens of businessmen, billionaires, high-rank officials, ministers, and princes have been arrested and interrogated. Such crackdown or purge aims to reinforce the authority and power of the crown prince. David Hirst asserts in this report that "some, but not all, of the top figures arrested were singled out for the most brutal treatment, suffering wounds to the body sustained by classic torture methods. There are no wounds to their faces, so they will show no physical signs of their ordeal when they next appear in public. Some detainees were tortured to reveal details of their bank accounts." The Middle East Eye website was "unable to report specific details about the abuse they suffered in order to protect the anonymity of its sources.". This is the link to this report (in English) by David Hirst: http://www.middleeasteye.net/news/exclusive-senior-figures-tortured-and-beaten-saudi-purge-1489501498      

5- Events are taking place in a very fast pace in the Saudi kingdom and in the Middle East; before things change for the worst, let us analyze the above points within our prediction of the imminent collapse of the Saudi kingdom. We provide below our viewpoints which time will prove them to be true or not.

 

Firstly: within the Saudi family:

1- The Saudi family members never witnessed any schisms within the first Saudi state that ended in 1818; they were united by their Wahabism while annexing stretches of lands by conquests and oppressing people of Arabia. Within the second Saudi state, the Wahabi momentum waned and the familial 'rights' that led to schisms began earlier and resulted in the fact that Saudi brothers and relatives fought against one another and dethroned one another; for instance, Turki Ibn Abdullah Al-Saud, Feisal Ibn Turki, Saud Ibn Feisal, and Abdul-Rahman Ibn Feisal were enthroned twice and Abdullah Ibn Feisal was enthroned three times. Abdul-Rahman Ibn Feisal was defeated by the Al-Rasheed family and he took flight in Kuwait, he was the father of Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud, the founder of the third, current Saudi state.    

2- When Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud established the third, current Saudi state while his father, Abdul-Rahman Ibn Feisal, was alive, he stipulated that the rule of the Saudi kingdom must be confined to his progeny, and his father agreed. In fact, Abdul-Aziz has introduced a system of fealty and allegiance so that his family and progeny would not fight within familial schisms, especially after he got rid of the Najd Brothers and gave the State the name of his family: the KSA or Saudi Arabia.     

3- Before oil prices would soar, the crown-prince Feisal quarreled with his brother, the affluent and extravagant king Saud. Feisal managed to dethrone king Saud and to enthrone himself as king while the former king was alive. No other Saudi familial schisms occurred until king Salman was enthroned in his late seventies after long years of carrying the title (the crown-prince). It was expected that he would take revenge (after such long period of waiting) by confining the rule and the throne to his progeny. In fact, Salman is the strongest, most powerful and daring man among his brothers and half-brothers; he is very pragmatic and disliked Wahabism. Salman has been the cudgel used by the Saudi royal family to quell and crush the Wahabi opposition movement in the 20th century, though he was only the prince of Riyadh at the time, and not the interior minister. The interior minister at the time was his brother, prince Nayef, who specialized in torturing detainees among the opposition figures while Salman faced the opposition figures politically inside the Saudi kingdom and in London, within the reign of their brother, the late king Fahd. The current crown-prince, M. Ibn Salman, has inherited from his father this daring, aggressive, pragmatic tendencies and he applies them now in the 'right time'  within the Saudi royal family members.              

4- The Saudi family members were Bedouin cavalier fighters in battles within the first and second Saudi states; the last cavalier of them was the founder of the third current Saudi state, Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud. Oil revenues made the Saudi family members turn suddenly (without a gradual process of civilization) from Bedouin culture to affluence, extravagance, and immorality. This is why when king Salman made his son, M. Ibn Salman as the deputy crown-prince, his brothers and their sons hardly protested. Within a video, the deputy crown-prince kneeled before the crown-prince M. Ibn Nayef who was the interior minister favored by the Americans. Months later, M. Ibn Salman has been appointed as the crown-prince and M. Ibn Nayef was overthrown easily. The prince Mutaib Ibn Abdullah was preparing himself to succeed his father, the late king Abdullah, to the throne instead of his uncle Salman, within a plot hatched by Khalid Al-Tuweijri was the Chief of the Royal Court under the late king Abdullah. Al-Tuweijri stopped anyone meeting with king Abdullah in his deathbed when he was hospitalized. Rumors have it that M. Ibn Salman foiled such plot of appointing Mutaib Ibn Abdullah instead of Salman, and he threatened Al-Tuweijri with a pistol and slapped him. Al-Tuweijri (loyal to king Abdullah and his son Mutaib) was fired from his post as the Chief of the Royal Court once Salman was enthroned. Mutaib has been recently arrested by the "Christian" Blackwater company mercenaries.   

5- The Saudi family members now comprise three generations: the senior generation of the sons of Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud (including Mishaal, Ahmad, and Talal), the generation of the grandsons of Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud: the sons of Saud, Feisal, Khaled, Fahd, Nayef, Sultan, etc., and the generation of the progeny of these sons. There are also princes of minor importance who are sons of the brothers of Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud and their progeny, about 11 thousand persons. The elderly generation of the sons of Abdul-Aziz are too weak to stand against king Salman and his impetuous, reckless son. The prince Talal Ibn Abdul-Aziz has not revolted yet against Salman and his son, despite the fact that during his youth, he revolted against his family by demanding the introduction of reform, and he formed a front with other reformist princes and joined Gamal Abdel-Nasser, the Egyptian president at the time, while discarding his royal title as a prince. In his old age now, prince Talal protested in a low voice; he never uttered a word in public when his son, Al-Waleed Ibn Talal, was imprisoned by M. Ibn Salman and his wealth is confiscated. Al-Waleed has been the Al-Saud-family star in the world of business. The generation of sons includes those who assume high-rank posts like some sons of princes Feisal and Sultan, and they are wise enough not to provoke the ire of M. Ibn Salman so as to enjoy the rest of their life within serenity. This is why they calmly swore allegiance and fealty to M. Ibn Salman as the crown-prince; he and his father, king Salman, have been ready to face other troublemakers within the Saudi family members.           

6- The so-called anti-corruption campaign aiming to control the troublemakers who would oppose the crown-prince began by arresting the pampered prince Abdul-Aziz Ibn Fahd, and no response ever came from the Saudi family members. When king Salman and his son announced the intention to reject Wahabism and to review the so-called hadiths, no response ever came from the Saudi family members. All those who are feared by M. Ibn Salman have been arrested and their wealth confiscated, and no response ever came from the Saudi family members. When M. Ibn Salman has commanded the arrest and interrogation of hundreds of men, the Saudi family members have been terrified. M. Ibn Nayef who has been the interior minister who has tortured detainees on behalf of the Saudi kingdom and the USA is now arrested and imprisoned by the Blackwater ''Christian'' mercenaries. Al-Waleed Ibn Talal who has ridiculed Donald Trump and called him "a disgrace not only to the GOP but to all America" is now imprisoned and his US$ billions are confiscated and rumors have it that his daughter is imprisoned as well. Has this been done also by the Blackwater ''Christian'' mercenaries?!            

7- The late notorious prince Mishaal, who confiscated hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of stretches of land in Arabia within the previous 50 years and died in 2017, never hid his ambition to be enthroned as king. In 2013, he was accused, by the British courts, of money-laundering, supporting terrorism, smuggling of precious stones from Congo, and offering a two-billion-dollar bribe to a UN official. Mishaal protested from the very start against appointing M. Ibn Salman as crown-prince without consulting him. fortunately for king Salman and his son, prince Mishaal died in 2017, and the crown-prince confiscated his liquid money inside the Saudi kingdom, about 400 billion US$, unlike most money of other princes which is in bank accounts abroad. Thus, the so-called anti-corruption campaign would not have been a success without confiscating the money of the late prince Mishaal.      

 

Secondly: words of the blogger Mujtahidd on Twitter:

 A mysterious Saudi prince is a blogger who calls himself Mujtahidd publishes online the scandals of the Saudi family members, and his latest Tweets on Twitter trace the steps of M. Ibn Salman who aims to monopolize power and confiscate all wealth. We summarize such tweets and give headings to them below.      

 The firing of Mutaib Ibn Abdullah from his post as the Commander of the National Guard:

1- After firing M. Ibn Nayef from his post as the minister of interior, the ministry of interior is now managed by M. Ibn Salman, who fired Mutaib Ibn Abdullah from his post as the Commander of the National Guard so that all armed forces would be under the control of the Saudi crown-prince; such steps pave the way so that M. Ibn Salman is enthroned officially as king while his father is alive. The newly formed Saudi State Security Apparatus loyal to M. Ibn Salman is filled with Egyptian experts of security and the Blackwater mercenaries.     

2- M. Ibn Salman tried to make Mutaib easily accept his being fired in return for appointing one of his sons, but Mutaib refused and sought the help of his paternal uncle, the prince Ahmad Ibn Abdul-Aziz. The crown-prince has warned the Saudi family members that anyone who would contact the prince Ahmad Ibn Abdul-Aziz risks losing his life! This made them think twice before contacting the prince Ahmad Ibn Abdul-Aziz. Later on, M. Ibn Salman fired Mutaib from his post and this has coincided with the so-called anti-corruption campaign.   

The so-called anti-corruption campaign as a façade to confiscate wealth and to monopolize power:

1- When the first step of M. Ibn Salman has been to arrest the prince Abdul-Aziz Ibn Fahd and to confiscate his possessions and wealth, no response ever came from the Saudi family members. This has encouraged the crown-prince to go on with the other steps in his plan.

2- M. Ibn Salman has decided to prevent the princes from traveling abroad unless within a prior written permission from him and he has imposed a certain limit for sums of money transferred abroad, never to be exceeded unless within a prior written permission from him. the crown-prince has commanded the preparation of a report about the possessions of the Saudi princes inside and outside the Saudi kingdom.   

3- This report shows the trillions of US$ possessed by the Saudi princes and their followers and cronies. This report mentions that Khaled Al-Tuweijri has stolen more than US$ 300 billion when he  was the Chief of the Royal Court under the late king Abdullah who trusted him absolutely. Those arrested ministers and businessmen within the campaign possess many US$ billions within their direct and indirect relations with Saudi princes.    

4- Mutaib Ibn Abdullah was fired from his post within this anti-corruption campaign so as to make him appear as one of the corrupt ones. The Saudi media focus too much on this anti-corruption campaign to intimidate the Saudi family members. This anti-corruption campaign has included the suspension of some people and making investigations of other people inside and outside the Saudi kingdom in order to confiscate their possessions. The next step is to fire many Saudi princes from their posts like the princes who rule Tabuk, Mecca, Al-Ahsa, and Riyadh so that to appoint those who are loyal to Salman in their places.    

5- Finally, Mujtahidd asserts the greed of M. Ibn Salman who intends to confiscate as many money and possessions as possible for his own bank accounts. He says that the crown-prince expects to gather between two and three trillion US$, while dedicating half a trillion US$ only to the Saudi budget. He says that M. Ibn Salman has bragged among his closest relatives that his wealth will exceed the wealth of Bill Gates, Mishaal Ibn Abdul-Aziz, Abdul-Aziz Ibn Fahd, Khaled Ibn Sultan, and Muhammad Ibn Fahd when combined together, as he desires to enter into the Guinness World Records as the richest man on Earth.    

 

Lastly:

1- The degree of corrupting affluence of the Saudi royal family members has allowed the crown-prince, M. Ibn Salman, to control them under the motto of 'combating' corruption. It is no new piece of news that all members of the Saudi royal family are corrupt and compete for more ways of corruption. Those who claim to combat corruption must never have been a corrupt person; this certainly does NOT apply to king Salman and his sons, including the crown-prince, who are very corrupt. This is how the conditions of the Saudi royal family members have changed in comparison to their ancestors of the 18th and 19th centuries because of the curse of oil revenues.    

2- It is noteworthy that king Salman warned his brother the prince Ahmad Ibn Abdul-Aziz by saying threateningly that the throne will be for his son, M. Ibn Salman, whether the Saudi family members like it or not. This means that the Saudi family members has no weight in the choice of the one to ascend the Saudi throne.  

3- Who is protecting king Salman and his son the crown-prince? What is the source of this deep trust adopted by king Salman in his words? This entails some explanation on our part.

 

 

 

Our Analysis of Events Taking Place in The Saudi Kingdom Now

 

 

Firstly:

1- Donald Trump has caused an earthquake in the traditional American policies; he has threatened to milk the Saudi cow and to decisively confront both Iran and ISIS, and he promised to get closer to Russia, and this opposes the policies of Obama. Once Trump has become president, the Saudi kingdom sought to win him to its side and managed to appease him by giving the USA hundreds of US$ billions. The policies of king Salman and his son, the crown-prince, are in tune with those of the new American president; in fact, new bases of the American-Saudi relations has been established recently.         

2- The above point coincides with two factors. Firstly, ISIS terrorists are now defeated and about to disappear from Iraq and Syria, and this indicates the victory of Iran and its ally, the terrorist group Hezbollah, and that Iranian influence has expanded from Iraq to Syria and Lebanon as well as within Yemen. Secondly, mutual nuclear threats loom in the horizon between Trump and the president of North Korea. The USA tightens the sanctions imposed on North Korea and it deals with those who deals with North Korea in the military and trade fields with hostility, especially Iran that defies such American sanctions imposed on North Korea. This increases the hostility between Iran and Trump, who casts doubt on the nuclear agreement between Iran and the six great powers (i.e., the USA, the UK, Russia, France, China, and Germany).        

3- At the same time, Israel (whose security is a priority for the USA) declares that Iran and its ally Hezbollah (in Lebanon) are its hostile enemies; this makes the Saudi, Israeli, and American policies united in the stance against Iran. King Salman and his son, the crown-prince, have to ally themselves to Israel against their enemy, Iran, and to lead the region into the implementation of the American agenda to wage a war against Iran, so that Iran is deprived from harvesting the results of crushing ISIS terrorists in Syria.     

4- The Saudi kingdom had to change its policies with Russia; king Salman visited Moscow and made several agreements there. Trump's drawing nearer to Russia indicates that Washington and Moscow seek this solution: the USA would leave Syria to Russia in return for Russian endeavors to end the Iranian influence in Syria. In fact, Russia and Iran compete in reaching the Mediterranean Sea through Syria. Russia has its maritime military bases in Syria and will not allow any rivals to it in Syria after defending Bashar Al-Assad and saving Syria from being divided and ruined. Russian ambitions since the 19thcentury and the era of the Ottoman rule of the Levant are to reach the warm waters of the Mediterranean Sea. Iran has its own coasts within warm waters elsewhere. When the Iranian influence ends in Syria, the Russian influence there will be a barrier between Iran (and Iraq which is dominated-by-Iran) on one hand and the terrorist group Hezbollah in Lebanon on the other hand. The Syrian president, Al-Assad, is greatly indebted  for his existence (and that of the Shiite Alawites sect) to Russia, the country that insists on his remaining the president of Syria after the massacres he committed against the rebels in Syria; this means he will be an obedient servant to Russia and will not pose a threat to Israel, however sinister his statements about Israel are.         

 

Secondly: implementing plans within the Saudi scene:

1- The USA agreed to allow the Saudi crown-prince, M. Ibn Salman, to get rid of its agent, M. Ibn Nayef, the former crown-prince, and to help M. Ibn Salman to confiscate wealth and power inside the Saudi kingdom. Though Trump has been busy with his talks with China to face North Korea, he has not forgotten to announce his support for Ibn Salman who incarcerated senior Saudi princes and confiscated their money.

2- The Saudi kingdom has established a center for 'moderation' to face extremism (i.e., to gradually eliminate Wahabism) and has introduced reform in the Saudi curricula to remove Wahabi influence gradually. These endeavors have been praised by the US Secretary of State. King Salman has launched a center to review the so-called hadiths and his son has announced the new trend toward adopting a 'moderate' form of 'Islam' and thus he disowns Wahabism. These endeavors have coincided with limiting the role of Saudi religious police, allowing Saudi women to drive cars, and controlling Wahabi clergymen that fill cyberspace with mad fatwas such as the ones about supporting ISIS terrorists and allowing incest and sex jihad. Hence, the Saudi regime that is being prepared will have only a tiny room for Wahabism, and this will stop the Wahabi threat of terrorism within the West countries. The tiny room that will be reserved to Wahabism inside the Saudi kingdom is to incite people and countries against Shiites in general and Iran in particular. The Saudi clergymen of Al-Sheikh family members obey the Saudi royal family members blindly, or else, they will be incarcerated in prisons, as the Saudi crown-prince does not accept silence and he requires full support and applause from the Saudi Wahabi clergymen. Those servile and obsequious Wahabi sheikhs will never dare to oppose anything regarding eliminating Wahabism gradually or regarding touristic projects in the Red Sea, as they fear to be incarcerated by the Saudi crown-prince who incarcerated and humiliated the senior Saudi princes.          

 

Thirdly: implementing plans within the Saudi foreign policies:

1- The first step has been the historic visit of king Salman to Moscow to introduce joint projects between the Saudi kingdom and Russia and to allow Russia full control of Syria. It was a news headline that king Salman told the Russian president, Vladimir Putin, that he does not oppose the fact that Al-Assad remains as the Syrian president in return for ending the ties between Al-Assad and Iran.

2- The Egyptian newspaper and website (Al-Masry Al-Youm) (www.almasryalyoum.com) mentions in Arabic this piece of news about Saudi new gifts of money to Egypt, after another gift from M. Ibn Salman to Egypt, which is the incarceration of the Saudi businessman who has donated money to the Ethiopian dam that would harm Egypt and its share of the River Nile water. We guess that there is another expected gift that will be the basis of Saudi negotiations with Egypt about money gifts presented to Egypt; namely, the hundreds of millions of US$ of investments in Egypt by the incarcerated Saudi prince Al-Waleed Ibn Talal. We guess that such money will be divided between M. Ibn Salman and the military generals who rule Egypt; their pockets are bottomless and covet more money. Would this make the military generals who rule Egypt support the war that might be waged by M. Ibn Salman against Iran? Does the Saudi crown-prince desire to recruit part of the Egyptian armed forces as mercenaries in such a war? Let us remember that M. Ibn Salman has enlisted the help of Blackwater mercenaries and Egyptian experts of security.         

3- The increasing Iranian influence in Yemen led M. Ibn Salman, with help from his allies: Egypt, the UAE, Bahrain, Sudan, etc., to wage a war against Yemen that resulted in massacres, famine, and epidemics. This means that M. Ibn Salman is a war criminal par excellence, but he is not afraid to be questioned because he is protected by the USA. M. Ibn Salman (who desires leadership at any cost) seized the chance to force Qatar submit to him by imposing a siege on Qatar (with the aid of his allies: Egypt, the UAE, Bahrain, Sudan, etc.) that might lead to an imminent war. The USA did not like this siege of Qatar because of the American military base there that threatens Iran. M. Ibn Salman is in deep trouble now, as he cannot retreat from Yemen nor from the siege of Qatar and he also cannot achieve victory in Yemen or to go on threatening to wage a war against Qatar. We guess that M. Ibn Salman desires to enlist the help of the Egyptian army, the most powerful armed forces in the Arab region.

4- To serve the USA, the UAE rented the Socotra archipelago located in the Arabian Sea near the Mandeb Strait that connects the Red Sea to the Gulf of Aden. Thus, the USA will have an American military base in Socotra besides the American military base in Qatar. Israel currently controls the Dahlak archipelago in the north area of the Mandeb Strait this means that Iran is prevented from reaching such a location to provide aid and weapons to its allies in Yemen, the Houthis, and from reaching its ally in Lebanon, the terrorist group Hezbollah, through Syria. Facing Iran continues as the Yemeni president Mansour Hadi is prevented from leaving the Saudi kingdom; his role has ended and he must obey his masters and step aside.   

5- Defeating and crushing ISIS terrorists in Syria means victory for Iran and Hezbollah. The response is to transfer the battlefield of sectarian strife to Lebanon (the fertile soil of sectarian strife within the Lebanese civil war of 1975-1990) in order to keep Hezbollah busy in a war that will weaken it so as not to make it pose a veritable danger for Israel. This new war will enrich dealers of weapons. This international plan has made king Salman invite the Sunnite Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Al-Hariri to stay in the Saudi kingdom. Once arrived in Riyadh, within his speech, Al-Hariri tendered his resignation and verbally attacked Iran while expressing that he might have been assassinated if he had stayed any longer in Beirut. This is an unprecedented step in international relations. Of course, Al-Hariri is an agent of the Saudi kingdom and he holds its nationality; he has to obey M. Ibn Salman by coming with his family to Riyadh to stay, exactly as the poor Yemeni president did before him. Fearing for the future of Lebanon, the French president visited Riyadh recently, as historically, France has always taken much interest in the Lebanese affairs.     

6- The Shiite-Sunnite conflict has led to the fact that Israel is no longer the enemy number one of the Sunnite world; Iran is now the enemy number one of the Sunnite world. Some reports assert that the USA might give Israel the green light to launch military attacks against Hezbollah in Lebanon, within support from the Saudi kingdom and other monarchies of the Gulf. Of course the secret, non-official, close Israeli-Saudi ties and relations lack overt official diplomatic relations, and this is the mission of Jared Kushner (Trump's son-in-law and senior advisor) who shuttles between Tel Aviv and Riyadh to launch the official diplomatic relations. At the same time, the terrorist group Hamas in Gaza is being forced now to surrender its arms to the Palestinian authority of the West Bank, by the help of the Egyptian president, Abdel-Fattah Al-Sisi, and the president of the Palestinian National Authority, Mahmoud Abbas. The USA announced the promise of large rewards to those who provide any pieces of information that will lead to arresting any of the Hezbollah leaders.         

 

Fourthly: the stance of Iran:

1- Iran has lifted the ceiling of its protest against Saudi Arabia to an unprecedented level. The Houthis launched a rocket near Riyadh to warn the Saudis that the zero-hour draws nearer.   

2- The 37-year-old Saudi prince, Turki Ibn M. Ibn Fahd who is the grandson of the late king Fahd and the eldest son of the incarcerated prince M. Ibn Fahd (former prince and governor of the oil-rich Al-Ahsa region of Shiites inside the KSA), has been smuggled into Iran and received the political asylum; for sure, Iran will negotiate the Saudi royal family over this prince. This fugitive prince was a minister and a consultant inside the Saudi Royal Court and he knows lots of secrets to reveal. It is noteworthy that the Saudi prince who was the deputy governor of Aseer region, Mansour Ibn Muqrin Ibn Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud, tried to flee in his private helicopter that crashed (or rather made to appear as such, as others assert it was hit intentionally). This prince has been killed because he tried to flee and he protested against M. Ibn Salman being appointed as the crown-prince. This late prince sent a message to about 1000 Saudi princes to take his side to protest against being appointed as the crown-prince, while asserting that the senior princes cannot be reliable, asserting also that young Saudi princes must revolt against king Salman. When he tried to flee, he was assassinated and the helicopter crash is made to appear as if it were an accident. This means he posed a veritable threat to M. Ibn Salman, and his assassination took place after less than one day after the so-called anti-corruption campaign that led to the incarceration of many Saudi princes.      

 

Lastly:

 The world is poised for turmoil, and the Saudi kingdom is in the heart of this imminent turmoil; to what extent would this turmoil influence the future of the Saudi kingdom, especially that it is on the brink of imminent collapse? Would the Saudi kingdom remain for more years or would it collapse soon? 

 

 

Would the Crown-Prince Ibn Salman Witness the Collapse of his Saudi Kingdom?

 

Introduction:

1- Ibn Salman has received the consent of the American president – the Godfather of the Saudi kingdom – to be appointed as the next king very soon. The speech of Ibn Salman included talking about the so-called 'moderate' Islam and it is addressed to Europe and the USA – in a type of apology for bloodbaths caused by Wahabism there. Ibn Salman addresses the West obsequiously by talking about huge economic projects inside the Saudi kingdom that will make the West investors and experts gain lots of profits.

2- Yet, Ibn Salman has no guarantee to ascend to power easily; no one can disregard the fury of the main pillars of the Saudi royal family. Ibn Salman is the youngest member of the Saudi royal family members, and old-age is very important in the Bedouin culture. Ibn Salman has the least amount of political experience, in contrast to the sons of his paternal uncle Feisal. Ibn Salman deals harshly with those who oppose among the sons of his paternal uncles, especially Ibn Nayef kneeled before Ibn Salman and then got removed. When king Salman dies one day, it will not be easy for the crown-prince, Ibn Salman, to be enthroned; we expect that king Salman would step down while he is alive and leave the throne to his son, who would be the new king under the protection of both his father and the USA. This transition of power will be similar to what has occurred in Qatar, when Hamad ceded the throne to his son Tamim Ibn Hamad under the auspices – or rather by the pressure – of the USA.      

3- All of the above does NOT remove the prediction of the imminent collapse of the Saudi kingdom. For instance, the Firil Center For Studies (FCFS) in Berlin predicts the collapse of the Saudi kingdom in 2023. The question is posed now: would the crown-prince Ibn Salman witness the collapse of his Saudi kingdom? Or would he witness the continuity of it within the generation of its founder, Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud?   

 

Firstly: indicators of the collapse of the Saudi kingdom:

 

Within the military aspect:

1- As per the strategic studies, the defense expenditure of the Saudi kingdom in 2014 was 81 billion US$, which was 10% of GNP and the third biggest defense budget after the USA and China. The reason of this is not only to defend the Saudi royal family, but also to make the Saudi princes get the commissions of weapons deals. This type of corruption inside the Saudi kingdom is known worldwide.  

2- Yet, when the Saudi kingdom was threatened by Saddam Hussein when he invaded Kuwait, the Saudi king readily sought the help of the USA. The Saudis never engaged into real war; i.e., infantry troops fighting troops of an enemy. The Saudi kingdom never wage war alone; it has enlisted the help of the USA, Egypt, and other allies. This applies to the failed war against Yemen; the Saudis and their allies fought only with warplanes. 

3- Let us remember the following facts below.

3/1: The Saudi army is never qualified to use the expensive weapons bought at exorbitant prices and fill storehouses inside the Saudi kingdom; only experts in the West can use such weapons.

3/2: There is no 100% Saudi army or troops; they consist mostly of mercenaries from Sudan and Pakistan as well as security companies and organizations. It is hardly expected that a free citizen who lives inside a country owned by Al-Saud family would defend this country.  

3/3: The last battle in which the Saudi army engaged was the battle of Sabilla, led by Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud who defeated the Najd Brothers in 1930, before giving his kingdom the name of Saudi Arabia.

4- The Saudi kingdom suffers a financial burden because of the war in Yemen beyond its capacity, as the resistance of the Houthis is supported by Iran. Thus, the Saudi budget is seriously depleted. The Saudis cannot end the war they have waged in the first place; they can no longer bear its financial burden or even make their allies bear it. In addition, the Saudi kingdom financially supports its allies outside the Gulf Cooperation Council, such as Egypt, Morocco, and Sudan. The alternative is to seek a truce with the Houthis, who will win eventually; we think that the end of Saudi Arabia may be at the hands of the Yemenis.    

5- The Saudi kingdom has used its money and allies within mediators to wage a war against Yemen, and it has participated in the wars inside Libya, Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Lebanon, Somalia, Sudan, Nigeria, and Algeria. This made the Saudis provide a huge budget to finance its aggression; for instance, the war in Iraq made the Saudi kingdom pay 48 billion US$. The rest of the wars together have made the Saudis pay 1000 billion US$.    

 

Within the oil aspect:

1- The Saudi kingdom has raised its the oil production to spite Iran and Russia, but this way, the Saudis have harmed their economy; prices of oil decreased since 2014. Thus the Saudi budget deficit reached 200 billion US$ in the last three years. 

2- The Saudi imminent economic collapse might be avoided if oil prices would reach 100 US$ per barrel to increase its budget, cover the huge expenditures, and make surpluses. It is impossible that the Saudi oil prices would reach 100 US$ per barrel; in fact, the prices plummeted to 26 US$ per barrel.   

3- WikiLeaks have published a secret document which is an American diplomatic telegram sent from Saudi Arabia, asserting that the amounts of Saudi oil reserves are grossly exaggerated and that a high official in ARAMCO provided false information.   

4- The Saudi kingdom has announced the intention to sell 5% of shares of ARAMCO in 2018, as per the 2030 vision of Ibn Salman. This measure aims at facing the budget deficit and the decrease of oil prices and at influencing the OPEC so that the West would disregard investment opportunities in Iran.  

5- Facing this crises, statements of Ibn Salman spread in the media about changing the structure of Saudi economy based on oil and natural gas by relying on the solar energy and the nuclear energy within consulting American, British, and French companies. The long-term of such projects implies that such empty statements in local media aim at promoting the chances of the crown-prince to be enthroned while his father is alive, though Ibn Salman lacks experience and efficiency.    

6- To seek alternatives to oil, touristic investments in Saudi islands in the Red Sea have been suggested, parallel to the speech about the falsehood called 'moderate' Islam. It is in this context that Saudi women are now allowed to drive cars; they will be allowed to have jobs like men. But what about providing job opportunities to Saudi  men first? The problem is to use incentives to urge Saudis to work; they are too lazy and they are used to depending on foreign workers.

7- Yet, media in the West go on criticizing Saudi Arabia more and more as the sole country that finances Wahabi terrorism and has crushed Arab Spring in Bahrain. Besides, the Saudi flagrant violation of human rights is criticized severely worldwide, and this coincides with the weakness of the Saudi influence in the West after shale oil has made the USA and the West depend less on Saudi oil.    

 

Secondly: could Ibn Salman be considered as a possible solution?:

1- Within this critical times within the history of the third, current Saudi state, would Ibn Salman be able to save his kingdom from an imminent collapse with his speeches and statements about economic change and the so-called 'moderate' Islam?! 

2- We would be optimistic only if Ibn Salman would have totally  different policies; yet, he seems to be a tyrant as he speaks on behalf of others inside and outside his kingdom; for instance, Egypt and Jordan never expressed any views about the NEOM project. Ibn Salman has got his kingdom and allies involved in (1) the Yemeni quagmire within shame and disgrace, and he cannot end this war until now and (2) the Qatar siege that has made no effect whatsoever.  

3- Thus, Ibn Salman is the direct cause of so many problems in the region, with no solutions appearing on the horizon very soon; he never consults anyone and expects blind obedience! The cause of problems cannot be part of any possible solutions, of course.

4- A reckless young man like Ibn Salman should be refused as a husband to any man's daughter; how come that the future of the kingdom, the royal family, and the Saudis be entrusted to him?!

5- This is very serious indeed! (the cursed Mubarak used to utter this silly phrase!), as this situation threatens Arabian people living inside Saudi Arabia, not just the Saudi royal family members.

6- Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud established the Saudi kingdom with military power and with Wahabism, and he became a king who controlled an Arabian nation of many sects, tribes, and races that include Shiites, Sufis, 'ordinary' Sunnites, and Wahabis. Thus, he crushed the shite rulers of Al-Ahsa (now called the Eastern region), where most oil is located and all Shiites inside the Saudi kingdom. Moreover, he annexed some lands in the south that were previously part of Yemen. This means that after the downfall of the Saudi royal family and their Saudi state, there will be civil strife and bloodshed within fierce wars that will involve Shiite and Sunnite Arabian tribes as well as the USA and Russia. Weapons will be sold at exorbitant prices in the East and the West, while millions of weak, innocent victims will pay the heavy price; we fear that the Red Sea will turn reddish because of bloodbaths and that the Red Sea and the Mediterranean Sea would carry millions of refugees to Europe!    

7- This will be a tragic event and we hope it would never take place; could Ibn Salman avoid the occurrence of such a tragedy?!

 

 

 

The Fate of M. Ibn Salman and his Saudi Kingdom

 

Introduction:

1- M. Ibn Salman, the Saudi crown-prince now, was entirely unknown for years; yet, his name now occupies the headlines in international media because of his drastic measures and decisions taken inside the Saudi kingdom whose adopted policies are secrecy, rigidness, and compromises. The whole world is amazed by this young prince who before becoming a king has involved his kingdom within devilish war in Yemen and the siege of Qatar. M. Ibn Salman got rid of the senior princes who are sons of his paternal uncles, and he is bent on facing Iran, and his regional allies are under his control. Yet, he is reckless and impetuous; he is losing militarily and politically, because he creates crises and does not know when to stop or how to get out of them, involving his regional allies in the troubles he makes.    

2- M. Ibn Salman does not tolerate being criticized and demands praise and applause however enormous his crimes and mistakes are. In fact, he has created enemies inside the Saudi family and within Saudi Wahabi extremists and then outside in fronts like Yemen and Qatar, and before getting out of any crises he has made, he has created more enemies in the front of Lebanon. 

3- Indeed, M. Ibn Salman is unique in his political immaturity; it is strange that his acts of impetuosity take place at the time when the strategy experts pose their questions about the imminent downfall of the Saudi state. Such questions were mere whispers before the rise of M. Ibn Salman as the crown-prince, and now, these questions are vociferous and outspoken in media worldwide, because of the recklessness of such prince.   

4- We have previously tackled the fact that M. Ibn Salman has no real army of devoted soldiers to defend him and his throne, and in light of this, we think of the fate of the crown-prince and of the dangers surrounding him which he faces without a real army but with tyrannical, reckless policies leading to nothing but failure and they will bring about the ruin and downfall of the Saudi kingdom.    

 

Firstly: internal sources of danger:

Wahabism:

 M. Ibn Salman has declared his intention to impose the so-called 'moderate' Islam and to review hadiths; this indicates he is rejecting Wahabism, and this will result in the following points.

1- As Ibn Salman rejects the Sunnite Ibn Hanbal doctrine revived by Wahabism that provides the fake religious legitimacy for the Saudi royal family, he will depend solely on the ancestral legitimacy of Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud who conquered regions of Arabia with his sword. This type of legitimacy is not confined to M. Ibn Salman, as it is linked to all of the Saudi royal family members. This type of legitimacy has waned by the aggression committed by M. Ibn Salman to princes of the Saudi family members.        

2- As M. Ibn Salman rejects the fake legitimacy drawn from Wahabism, he sticks to injustices and tyranny in a way reminiscent of the rule of Saddam Hussein in Iraq who waged war against Iran using the ideology of Pan-Arabism or Arab nationalism, and those who opposed him were punished severely. Of course, international powers manipulated Saddam Hussein and this happens again now with M. Ibn Salman.    

3- As M. Ibn Salman rejects the fake legitimacy drawn from Wahabism, he has created enemies among the Wahabis who submit to the Saudi family rule as per the Wahabi religion taught to them; we refer here to most Sunnite Wahabis living inside the Saudi kingdom, who are not activists, but they would deem M. Ibn Salman as an infidel and apostate who deserves to be put to death as per their Wahabism. They will think of rebelling against him as he rejects Wahabism, and this will make them activists who join the Wahabi opposition movement. This sentiments of animosity increases as M. Ibn Salman uses the 'Christian' Blackwater mercenaries to oppress 'Muslims', even senior princes of his Saudi family and known Wahabi preachers like Salman Ouda, and that he submits to the American policies and he appeased Trump by hundreds of billions US$. Wahabis inside the Saudi kingdom surely hate the fact that M. Ibn Salman cooperates and coordinates with Israel, and the latter seek to build diplomatic relations with the Saudi kingdom. Would this result in suicide bombers attempting to assassinate M. Ibn Salman?!            

The Saudi royal family members:

1- Traditionally inside the Saudi kingdom, disputes among royal family members are settled with compromises so as not to let disputes exacerbate, even when crown-prince Feisal deposed king Saud his brother, when king Feisal was assassinated by one of his relatives, and when king Fahd had no powers confiscated by the crown-prince Abdullah.         

2- Within the policy described in the above point, we see the familial spirit and tribal values that emphasizes the old age; for instance, the prince M. Ibn Abdul-Aziz was the eldest son of Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud and he controlled the whole Saudi family including the Saudi king. Even the eldest princes within the generation of the grandchildren of Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud had their own stature. Yet, such traditions are now rejected by M. Ibn Salman who incarcerated and tortured the senior princes among the sons of his paternal uncles, and this has intimidated and terrorized the rest of the Saudi family members who had no choice now but to submit to will of M. Ibn Salman.

3- Thus, most of the affluent, pampered princes of the Saudi family members who lives in luxury and extravagance have submitted to M. Ibn Salman and those who refused to submit are now incarcerated under surveillance. Those who desire an audience with M. Ibn Salman are being searched thoroughly so as he would avoid being assassinated as was the case of king Feisal. But who knows? There is an intricate, complicated relations among the Saudi family members (who are said to be about 11 thousand persons), and M. Ibn Salman needs many of those hypocrites to be by his side. Most of them are adamant in hypocrisy and the crown-prince does not know their intentions; maybe one of them might be courageous enough to assassinate him to save the rest of the Saudi family members. This possibility cannot be excluded and precautionary measures never prevent predestined fate.      

 

Secondly: regional sources of danger:

1- We mean Iran in particular, whose arm inside the Saudi kingdom is the Shiites who live in Al-Ahsa region (now called the Eastern region) that has the biggest oil reserve in the world. Another arm of Iran inside Arabia is in Yemen. Shiites inside the Saudi kingdom and worldwide are arch-enemies of the Saudi royal family.

2- King Salman has tried to be friends with Shiites ruling Iraq, but it is impossible for Shiites to forget massacres committed by Saudis within the first Saudi state and the third, current Saudi state, nor massacres committed in Iraq by the Wahabi terrorist group ISIS. Wahabi terrorists in Iraq have massacred hundreds of thousands of Iraqis: Shiites, Sunnites, Christians, and Yazidis. We are to remember that Shiites love too much to engage into the lamentation of the dead as part of their religious rituals. There is hardly any Shiite Iraqi family that has not lost on member killed by Wahabis in Karbala and other cities in Iraq.     

3- Moreover, political circumstances will prevent Iraq to join M. Ibn Salman who desires to face Iran. Besides, Shiites are loyal to their religion more than their homelands, and this applies to Shiites of the Gulf monarchies and of Hezbollah in Lebanon and even Shiite minority in Egypt, if they have the chance. All those Shiites suffer from the dominance of Sunnite regimes that ally themselves to the Saudi kingdom. Thus, even if king Salman and the Iraqi prime minister Al-Abady exchanged smiles, this will never hide mutual hatred; Shiites inside and outside the Saudi kingdom will never hesitate to take revenge against the Saudi family members if they have the chance; they never forget the suffering inflicted on them by the Saudi family since the 18th century until now.       

4- The biggest danger comes from the Shiites of Yemen led by the Houthis. The Saudi family members manipulated the Yemeni president Ali Abdullah Saleh and the president Mansour Hadi detained inside the KSA now. Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud was wise enough never to attempt to conquer the Yemeni quagmire, in contrast to the recklessness and impetuosity of M. Ibn Salman now. Yemen poses a veritable threat to the Saudi family members, and Yemenis have rights in the areas that separate them from Hejaz. The Houthis are keen to invade such regions if this is made possible anytime. Iran who meddles in the Yemeni affairs play its cards with calmness and shrewdness, in contrast to the recklessness and impetuosity of M. Ibn Salman.    

5- Cards of the game are held by Iran now, and the only thing that prevents Iran from crushing M. Ibn Salman and his Saudi kingdom is the understanding of international balances. Iran waits for the opportunity one day to attack and crush the Saudi royal family by attacks from the East and the South-West. The ballistic missile launched at Riyadh might have been a message from Iran to remind M. Ibn Salman to its weight and presence. Thus, if Ibn Salman has no real army but warplanes that massacre women and children in Yemen, any missiles from any direction can destroy palaces of Al-Saud family members. Iran will never risk to provoke the ire of the international community (which is, in fact, the USA) against it if it would destroy the Saudi family in an unsuitable time.      

6- This is when compromises must be sought. 

 

Thirdly: international sources of danger (the international community; i.e., the USA):

Noteworthy remarks:

1- The assassination of king Salman and his son does NOT lead necessarily to the collapse of the Saudi kingdom. It is possible that the USA – after consulting EU and Russia – might plan to get rid of king Salman and his son and to appoint a new king who will submit more to the Americans and be less imprudent in comparison to M. Ibn Salman. International powers might agree to end the Saudi kingdom, to get rid of the Saudi royal family, and to redefine borders in Arabia. It is possible that the USA would cooperate with Iran if there is mutual benefit and gains, because money (or Mammon) is the only worshipped deity in politics.    

2- This query is raised: which is better for the USA? To cause the Saudi kingdom to collapse now or to milk the Saudi cow until its death?

3- The following queries are similarly raised.

3/1: When the Saudi kingdom collapses, who will control the oil of Al-Ahsa region? The USA will never leave it to Iran, but all parties can be satisfied within agreements to share the spoils.  

3/2: The USA will prevent the sabotage of oil fields of Arabia (Saddam Hussein had sabotaged the oil fields of Kuwait in 1992). The USA has experience in extinguishing fires of oil fields and it will make use of it.

3/3: When the Saudi kingdom collapses, an independent state in the Hejaz region may emerge and an international organization to facilitate and supervise pilgrimage to Mecca: an Islamic duty of vital importance.

3/4: When the Saudi kingdom collapses, minor states might emerge in Arabia and fight one another within wars and bloodbaths. This will make weapons markets flourish in the USA, Russia, and the EU, and the Muhammadans will return to their old habits of destroying themselves by their own hands and hands of others as well.

3/5: When the Saudi kingdom collapses, the Saudi royal family members will disperse around the globe in quest for their trillions of US$ smuggled to the EU and the USA within money-laundering, bank-accounts, companies, gold, and assets. The West will confiscate all such huge sums of money and the West might even exterminate Saudi family members who have such money. We talk here about a few thousands of Saudi family members who own trillions of US$  stolen from the rightful owners. Hence, to destroy the Saudi royal family members means to gain these trillions of US$ so easily in so little time.

 

Lastly:

1- M. Ibn Salman follows now the zero equation; i.e., he would have 100% of things and others would have a big zero. This leads inevitably to existential conflict: it is either his life or the lives of others.

2- The whole world follows the policy of compromises and mutual benefits and agreements; no one is allowed to eat the whole cake alone. Ibn Salman with his polices leading inevitably to failure will make his allies among Arab rulers reject him eventually. The international powers that manipulates M. Ibn Salman temporarily will get rid of him one day and will negotiate a compromise among themselves to share the spoils after the imminent collapse of the Saudi kingdom. 

3- The haughty, arrogant crown-prince M. Ibn Salman may be eliminated sooner than we think!

 

 

When Will the Saudi Kingdom Collapse?

 

Firstly:

Between the Saudi kingdom and North Korea:

1- A strong nation is one that rules itself within democratic mechanisms and whose military armed forces submit to executive authorities chosen by the citizens and watched over by elected parliament, within the presence of free media, national surveillance, and strong influential civil NGOs that represent all of the social spectra. Within tyrannical countries, the military armed forces submit to a tyrannical ruler who use them to oppress unarmed citizens, and security apparatuses are so many and they overlap with military armed forces employed by tyrants to oppress unarmed citizens.

2- The Saudi tyranny exceeds the tyrannical regime of North Korea; the North Korean rulers never gave their family name (Kim) to their country. The current North Korean president, Kim Jong-Un, succeeded his father, the late president Kim Jong-Il, and his grandfather the founder of the state was the president Kim Il-Sung. This means that Kim Jong-Un is the third of the ruling family (Kim), in power since 1948. No president of this family ever thought about giving his family name to the country; they adhere to the name of Korea and seek to unify North Korea and South Korea. This is in contrast to the Saudi royal family members that insist on giving their  name to the kingdom they own.    

3- The military armed forces of North Korea seem apparently – until now – to be under the control of the young tyrant, Kim Jong-un, who controls the country and the citizens, and this president fearlessly faces the USA and the whole world with his military forces. The North Korean president does not need mercenaries for his protection, in contrast to the young crown-prince M. Ibn Salman.

 

Mercenaries of the crown-prince M. Ibn Salman:

1- Ibn Salman has employed Blackwater mercenaries to oppress both citizens of his kingdom and his Saudi family members. We could not help but notice two points in this event: (A) Ibn Salman does not trust his Saudi security forces and military forces, and (B) he has gone to extremes in punishing princes of his family; he has ordered his mercenaries to torture some princes to the extent that the shoes of the Blackwater mercenaries crushed their heads of these princes. This torture might be deemed there as 'normal' when inflicted on poor, helpless citizens inside Arabia, but unimaginable to occur to Saudi princes – the intention here has been to crush their souls so as to teach them (if they would be released alive from prison) never to dare oppose Ibn Salman.   

2- With these mercenaries, Ibn Salman has grown too powerful and he has gone to extremes in his tyranny and oppression inside and outside the Saudi kingdom. Ibn Salman has failed in in his political and military battles in Yemen, Qatar, and Lebanon. If Ibn Salman were ruling a living nation, this nation would dethrone him as a punishment for his failures. The only field in which Ibn Salman has achieved success is crushing, punishing, and torturing those potential opposition figures among his family members before his eminent enthronement and before they would harm him. before the media cameras, Ibn Salman kneeled and prostrated before Ibn Nayef; yet, once Ibn Salman has grown too strong by the USA and the mercenaries, he has ordered his mercenaries to torture Ibn Nayef to make him lose his dignity forever. Ibn Salman would never have committed such violation if there were some authority to an entity of national guards or to an army. Hence, Blackwater mercenaries are the new Mamelukes hired by Ibn Salman to help him rule; soon enough, those mercenaries/Mamelukes will control Ibn Salman himself.     

3- The presence of such mercenaries shows that Ibn Salman is a reckless, extremist tyrant who seeks no compromises and never trusted his family members, Saudi armed forces, or security apparatuses. Ibn Salman has passed the whole route and there is no turning back for him; he has reached the point of no return; i.e., his existential struggle against many foes, inside and outside the Saudi family members, has commenced, and it is either he or them. Ibn Salman has empowered himself in advance with all available authorities confiscated by him, and he has not left any choices for his foes, except that they kneel and prostrate before him. Ibn Salman can easily fire and/or imprison anyone among the military leaders and security leaders and confiscate their money; he is the judge and the executioner at the same time.

4- Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud, grandfather of Ibn Salman, has established the Saudi kingdom using the savage Najd Brothers, and they rebelled, opposed, and fought against Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud, but he managed to defeat them. Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud reinforced his kingdom by marrying daughters of major tribal leaders to attain their loyalty: e.g., from tribes of Al-Sedeiriyya, Shamar, Al-Rasheed, and Al-Sheikh. It was possible that the line of kings would be confined to the issue of Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud from his wife of Al-Sedeiriyya tribe, if it had not been for the tribe of Shamar who supported prince Abdullah, whose mother was from the tribe of Shamar, and who forced king Fahd to make Abdullah as the crown-prince instead of the powerful prince Sultan. Ibn Salman has treacherously crushed princes Mutaib Ibn Abdullah and Ibn Nayef, among others, and this shows that the strong influence of the tribes has waned years ago and so is that of powerful princes belonging to these tribes. Ibn Salman clearly relies on his good relations with the West powers, as he serves their interests and his, and on mercenaries inside the Saudi kingdom. This reliance on the American support is proved by releasing Saad Al-Hariri (the Lebanese prime minister) and the prince Mutaib Ibn Abdullah based on commands of the USA and other West powers.        

 

The Saudi kingdom has been established on dangerous mines:

1- We see here how Ibn Salman places his fate and that of his kingdom in the hands of Blackwater mercenaries an their American masters. The very existence of Ibn Salman and his kingdom depends only on serving American interests. The imminent collapse of the Saudi kingdom is only a matter of time; the West powers are thinking about when to decide to cause such collapse, now or later on, and which of the two options would better serve their interests. Apart from The West powers, other factors that influence such a decision (i.e., to cause the collapse of the Saudi kingdom) include oil, Russian and Israeli interests, and the threat posed by Iran. Egypt and the Arab countries have nothing to do with this equation; sadly, the major role of Egypt has waned since it has become subordinate to the Saudi royal family.

2- The USA has discovered oil in the Saudi kingdom and made much use of it in return for protecting the Saudi kingdom; the Saudi-American alliance has been formed since Roosevelt. American banks invest US$ trillions of Saudi royal family members' money and keep the Saudi currency gold standard. The USA is keen to accelerate the collapse of the Saudi kingdom to confiscate such Saudi US$ trillions owned by the Saudi royal family members. The US$ billions smuggled by Kaddafi in Egypt, South Africa, EU, and the USA are confiscated now. Yet, assets, possessions, and bank accounts inside the USA owned by the Saudi royal family members are not the whole wealth; the original source of wealth is Al-Ahsa region oil, whose revenues are confiscated from the Shiites dwellers of this region by Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud who renamed Al-Ahsa as (the Eastern Region), which is located above the largest oil reserves in the world. The USA will never cede Al-Ahsa oil to the Shiite Arabs whose loyalty is to their religion (and to Iran, ipso facto) and not to their country. The Americans fear that when the Saudi kingdom collapses, Iran would invade Al-Ahsa. Besides there are other complicated issues such as the stances of Russia and other powers worldwide.   

3- Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud invaded the Hejaz region (where Mecca and Yathreb are situated) and controlled pilgrimage to make his kingdom the leader of 'Muslim' countries. There are rivalry between the Najd region and Hejaz region that has lasted for centuries, since the renegades' war in the 1st century A.H until now. When the Saudi kingdom collapses, would be the fate of Hejaz? This question pertains to all Muslims (or the Muhammadans: Sunnites, Shiites, and Sufis), as they would never accept any interference by foreigners (and Christians) in pilgrimage and 'holy' sites in Hejaz. Even as the fury of the Muhammadans is too much about Jerusalem, it is limited because Jerusalem is a matter of religious interest to Jews, Christians, and Muhammadans. As for Mecca and Yathreb, the USA and the West powers cannot interfere in them or indeed in the Hejaz region, as this interference (which will be deemed as a 'crusade') will lead – without exaggeration – to thousands of Wahabi suicide bombings inside the West countries and the inside the USA. This is why when the Saudi kingdom collapses, the interference of international delegations is due to ensure safety and regulation of pilgrimage and possibly to establish an independent state in Hejaz. This entails the interference of all countries of the 'Islamic' world, including Iran. Russia will never be out of the picture; Russian influence extends to hundreds of millions of Muslims/Muhammadans in Central Asia. Thus, we assert here that this volcano is dormant now, but it will erupt when the Saudi kingdom collapses.  

4- Yemen has suffered a lot because of the Saudi kingdom; Abdul-Aziz Al-Saud humiliated Yemen and interfered in Yemeni affairs, whereas Ibn Salman has destroyed Yemen now. The Saudi kingdom has invaded some Yemeni regions and within agreements with Ali Abdullah Saleh, the Saudi kingdom annexed other border regions as well. When the Saudi kingdom collapses, the Yemeni people will seize the chance to restore their land and to take revenge against the Saudi royal family members.  

5- Iran poses a big problem now as it is a very strong regional power and it is the leader of Shiites worldwide. Arab Shiites form a majority among dwellers in regions of oil in the Persian Gulf, but they are ruled by Sunnite Wahabi royal families. The USA and the West powers desire to limit Iran and to stop it from getting nuclear weapons; this is NOT because they fear the Iranian military forces, as Iran never engaged into military attacks against Israel and the West countries. Even terrorists worldwide do not include even a single Iranian person. The reason for the desire to limit Iran is to stop it from having a share in the oil of Arabia when the Saudi kingdom collapses. Iran is a real, ancient, deep-rooted State like Egypt. Politically, the states in the regions between Iran and Egypt are temporary ones – they will be removed from the map later on, and this applies first to the Saudi kingdom. Hence, the USA and the international powers fear that if the Saudi kingdom collapses prematurely, Iran would be the only one to get the benefits of this event.  

 

Those who covet the Saudi cow when it will be slaughtered:

1- The Americans are not the only ones who covet to have the largest amounts of spoils after the downfall of the Saudi royal family. This is the important question studied now by all parties concerned. The Saudi cow is weakened and is about to be slaughtered: there will be those who will have the lion's share of its meat and those who will have very little chunks.  

2- Let us remember that the Tsardom of Russia was very eager to cause the collapse of the Ottoman caliphate, nicknamed at the time as the sick man of Europe. The policies of the Tsardom of Russia were based on weakening this sick man of Europe to inherit its lands in Mid-Europe later on and protect the Slavic race under its banner. What protected the Ottoman caliphate for a while against Russia was GB and France who elongated the duration of the Ottoman caliphate because GB and France desired to get – and they actually got – the lion's share of the Ottoman lands, whereas Russia received very little from the spoils when the Ottoman caliphate officially ended.

 

LASTLY:

 When an agreement is reached by the USA, the West powers, Russia, and Iran, the Saudi kingdom will collapse by shooting just one bullet. The USSR collapsed without shooting even one bullet; but the Saudi kingdom will collapse by one bullet shot by a mercenary of Blackwater who will point his gun at the head of Ibn Salman, and this will bring the story to a happy ending. And wait; we too are waiting!

 

 

CONCLUSION: Before the Downfall

 

Before the Downfall: Is There A Believing Man among the Pharaonic Al-Saud Family, Who Conceals his Faith, to Preach his People?

Introduction:

1- God mentions within the Quranic story of Moses and Pharaoh that an Egyptian, cultured believing prince at the palace of Pharaoh preached his people and reminded them of the terrible fate of unjust nations before them smitten and destroyed by God; God says that this believing man was saved from the intrigues and schemes of his people, who drowned with Pharaoh in the Red Sea. This believing prince felt despair as his people never paid attention or took heed of his advice as he said to them: "You will remember what I am telling you, so I commit my case to God. God is Observant of the servants." (40:44).  

2- Moses' Pharaoh is the imam/leader to all tyrants who came after him in all eras, especially those tyrants who mix religion with politics, as they follow the footsteps of Moses' Pharaoh (see 3:11, 8:52-54, 43:56) and God watches over them to punish them 89:14.

3- Like all human beings, not all of the Saudi royal family members are corrupt; maybe there are among them those believers who seek reform and/or seek to repent and follow the Quranic Truth; they read the Quran and they can easily – if they want – know that God does not love the unjust ones, corrupters, aggressors, and sinners and know the fate of Moses' Pharaoh and those unjust tyrants who followed his footsteps. It is easily inferred from the Quranic repetition of the story of Moses' Pharaoh that we must draw the moral lesson and avoid tyranny and ponder the fate of self-deified tyrants. "In this is a lesson for whoever fears." (79:26). Undoubtedly, there are some members of the Saudi royal family who fear God in piety or are ready to attain piety as they fear the Dominant Lord; for sure, most of the members of the Saudi royal family predict the downfall of their dynasty and the collapse of the Saudi kingdom and they are prepared for it.    

4- Hence, we hope that a believing man among the Al-Saud family would one day emerge and preach and warn the members of the Al-Saud family, while relying on God, fearing no one but He. God has protected Moses and Aaron, and the believing prince, against evil intrigues and schemes while they were inside the lands of the self-deified tyrannical Pharaoh. Ibn Salman is nothing in comparison to Moses' Pharaoh.

5- Thus, we briefly assert below the points that must form the contents of the preaching that must be uttered by the believing prince among the Al-Saud family members.

 

Firstly: the hell resulting from the collapse/downfall of the Saudi kingdom:

1- The collapse of the Saudi kingdom will destroy the Saudi royal family internally; those members who would manage to flee Arabia will be ideal victims; their smuggled money would be coveted by the mafia and other criminals who would massacre fugitive Saudi princes and their children with cold blood. Thus, any fugitive princes will be no longer princes with power and authority, but merely wealthy, unprotected men walking through streets of foreign countries filled with thieves and murderers; those fleeing men will be robbed and killed mercilessly!  

2- The collapse of the Saudi kingdom will not only destroy its cities and turn its tribes into warring factions, but also will make volcanoes erupt in the Gulf monarchies. For instance, the cities of the UAE will be destroyed and their sky-scrapers will collapse, and the ruins there will be like those of Aleppo in Syria. This would be the punishment of the UAE whose crown-prince assumed that his money would make him control the whole world, while forgetting the fact that such money is a weakness inside his kingdom if he oversteps his limits. 

3- Anyway, bloodbaths will fill Arabia and the Gulf countries more than those witnessed in Syria and Iraq. The only beneficiaries in that case are those who invent and sell weapons who will readily sell more weapons stored for years and see their weapons being used and tested.

 

Secondly: to avoid this hell, immediate, daring reforms are required:

  At first, the Saudi war waged against Yemen must cease immediately, and all those imprisoned for expressing their views must be released out of Saudi prisons. An interim government must emerge and issue legislations that include the following measures of reform.

1- The name "The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia" must change into "The Arab United Kingdom", as the old name is the root of all evil, calamities, catastrophes, injustices, and tyranny.

2- The kingdom must be turned into constitutional monarchy; the king must be chosen by Saudi family members and he would be a mere symbol like the queen of the UK and presidents of Israel and India. The new constitution must include the fact that all citizens must be equal before the law.

3- A new constitution that focuses on human rights must be written and it must include the following points.

3/1: Pilgrimage to Mecca should be open for all peaceful people coming from all over the world; pilgrimage is allowed during the four sacred lunar months of Zu Al-Hijja, Muharram, Saffar, and Rabei Awwal. More details about this are found in our book (in English) titled "Pilgrimage between Islam and the Muhammadans", found on this link: (http://www.ahl-alquran.com/arabic/book_main.php?main_id=90).

3/2: Absolute religious freedom must be ensured for all citizens of the kingdom and those who visit it as pilgrims or workers. This religious freedom includes one's choice of faith tenets and belonging to any sects and even atheism as well as freedom of performing and rituals and proselytizing any religions, provided that no compulsion or coercion in religion is committed. Those who commit the crime of religious persecution or murdering others because of religion must be punished by law.

3/3: Freedom of thought, expression, creativity, and research in all fields without censorship must be ensured for all citizens of the kingdom and those who visit it as pilgrims or workers.

3/4: Political freedom is ensured equally for all citizens of the kingdom, and this includes duties and rights as well. The authorities must be distributed between the executive entity (e.g., government emerging from political parties within free, transparent elections) and elected parliament entrusted with the wealth of the nation and checking the performance of the government, to remove it when necessary, within free entities of the judiciary system, electoral processes, human rights, NGOs, syndicates, clubs, charities, cultural centers, etc., expressing all the social spectra. Such authorities must strike a balance and check one another while serving citizens in this world, i.e., without focusing on people's religions and fate in the Hereafter.  

3/5: Justice: social justice must be ensured for all citizens of the kingdom; more taxes must be imposed on the rich for the sake of the poor. Political justice must be ensured by democracy, devolution (within delegation of powers), and free elections among political parties (as the case of Israel and India). Judiciary justice must be ensured by making the judiciary system independent from the parliament and the government. 

3/6: Strong military armed forces must emerge to protect the kingdom and its borders without playing a political role.

3/7: Security forces and apparatuses must emerge to protect all citizens equally and not to humiliate them and not to protect only the powerful and the rich citizens.

 

Lastly: O Al-Saud! Is there not one reasonable man among you?:

1- The points mentioned above are not impossible; they are applied in modernized states like Israel. The fact that Arabs are backward is hardly an excuse for not introducing immediate reform; people are fast learners now in the era of cyberspace; learning by trials and errors is OK; any errors resulting from the democratic process can be corrected, whereas grave errors of tyranny are like cancerous cells that must be removed from the body. 

2- The above points, if applied, will protect the Saudi family members against its friends and foes and will make them avoid a terrible fate and a dark future, so that they live in safety without being chased or trials in courts. A prince who lives in peace with few US$ millions is better that a prince who lives in constant fear and anxiety with US$ billions and to leave them when he dies while feeling that his wealth availed him nothing upon dying. 

3- It is of vital importance that this reform must be introduced by members of the Saudi royal family so that their role goes on as protectors of the reform initiated by them; this is better than imposing reform on them by external forces that will make them victims of radical changes and will certainly confiscate and rob all their US$ billions.  

4- We address here any believing prince(s) among the Al-Saud family who would seek to prevent bloodshed; the Saudi kingdom has caused enough bloodshed worldwide.

5- This believing prince at the palace of Moses' Pharaoh said this phrase and we repeat it here, this time addressing it to the Al-Saud family: "You will remember what I am telling you, so I commit my case to God. God is Observant of the servants." (40:44).

ABOUT THIS BOOK:
This book has been a series of articles published between Oct., 20th, to Dec., 12th, 2017, to provide our views regarding the Saudi crown-prince, M. Ibn Salman, whose father, king Salman, has made the de facto ruler of the Saudi kingdom, now on the verge of collapse because of Ibn Salman. We tackle the so-called 'moderate' Islam of the crown-prince, the imminent collapse of the kingdom, the analytical vision of this collapse and its results, and then the required reform to avoid bloodshed.
