📕 | (3/3): Abdullah ibn Saud, upon entering Medina, massacred many of its residents and looted their properties. His forces destroyed parts of the noble mosque of Sayyid al-Shuhada Hamza, located outside the city’s citadel. They desecrated the shrine, looted its chandeliers, carpets, copper items, and precious curtains.

The holy shrine of Ali al-Urayzi (r), the son of Imam Ja’far al-Sadiq (A), near Medina, was also destroyed. The door of the tomb was set ablaze, and the coffin itself was broken. That same year (1217 AH), after capturing Mecca, Wahhabi forces demolished the Maqam al-Mawlid al-Nabi (PBUH), the dome over the Maqam al-Wahi, the tomb of Sayyida Khadija al-Kubra, and other sacred domes and graves. They even looted the shroud of Maqam Ibrahim (A) (Mujani, Najd Reports, citing Ottoman archives, p. 94).

In 1222 AH, Saud returned to Medina and, armed, entered the tomb of the Prophet (S), plundering the Prophet’s treasury. Among the looted artifacts were a crown attributed to the Sassanid king Kisra Anushirwan, the sword of Harun al-Rashid, gifts from Indian sultans, and other valuable items from the shrine.

According to the author of Lama’ al-Shihab, even the shrines of Sayyida Fatima al-Zahra (A), the Imams of Baqi, the martyrs of Uhud, and the third caliph Uthman were not spared. Saud ordered their destruction during this campaign (ibid., p. 117).

Reports from Saud’s companions—Abdullah bin Mutlaq, Ghassab, Hubab, Ahmad al-Hanbali, and Ibrahim bin Saeed—reveal that part of the looted wealth was stored in a chest with Saud’s daughter in Dir’iyya. A large portion was sold to Sharif Ghalib of Mecca, who then shipped it to India via his son-in-law Muhammad Attas for sale (Mujani, pp. 151–152).

British scholar Jones records that Abdullah bin Saud took an ivory chest containing three illuminated Qur’ans inlaid with rubies, hundreds of pearls, and an emerald on a golden chain to Cairo. He handed it over to Muhammad Ali Pasha, the Ottoman governor, who later sent it to Istanbul with Wahhabi prisoners (ibid., p. 152; Jones, p. 396).

In a 1215 AH document, Adam Effendi reports that a rebel commander, Badaei, was sent by Abdulaziz Saud to besiege Medina. During the siege, they looted the covering of Sayyiduna Hamza’s shrine, desecrated copies of the Qur’an, and caused widespread destruction (ibid., p. 231).

These accounts—both prior to and following the Wahhabi occupation of Medina—demonstrate a consistent pattern of desecration and violence. The actions of the Wahhabi-Saudi alliance had little to do with religion and everything to do with conquest, power, and wealth. Cloaked in false religiosity, they sought to justify their crimes—from destroying sacred shrines to looting, murdering, and enslaving innocents. Their ideological descendants continue to commit similar atrocities in places like Syria, Yemen, Iraq, Nigeria, and Afghanistan—beheading civilians, looting homes, burning people alive, and enslaving women under the banner of “takfiri jihad.”

📕 | (3/3:1): Bayt al-Aḥzān (The House of Sorrows) was a significant and sacred place deeply tied to the grief of Sayyida Fatima al-Zahra (S) after the demise of her father, the Prophet Muhammad (S). This site is believed to have been the place where she spent much of her time in mourning following the loss of her father, reflecting on the immense sorrow and injustice she endured.

Among the sacred sites destroyed in Jannat al-Baqiʿ was the Fatima Mosque, located approximately twenty-five meters southeast of the shrine of the Ahl al-Bayt (S). The term "Bayt al-Aḥzān" was coined by the famous Andalusian traveler Ibn Jubayr during his visit to Medina in the 6th century Hijri. It translates to "The House of Sorrows," signifying the emotional weight of the place, where Sayyida Fatima (S) mourned not only for the Prophet Muhammad (S) but also for the many trials and hardships she faced after his passing, particularly the loss of her rights and the oppression she suffered.

Historically, Bayt al-Aḥzān was considered a sacred space, where Fatima (S) would often retreat for solace and reflection. This site became an essential part of the spiritual landscape in Medina, especially for those who sought to honor the memory of the Prophet's family and the sacrifices they made. The mosque, often referred to as the Fatima Mosque in earlier times, was a place of mourning, prayer, and reflection on Fatima’s life and legacy.

The House of Sorrows was an important pilgrimage site for Shia and Sunni Muslims alike, with notable scholars from both sects recognizing its religious significance. For example, Shaykh Ṣadūq, Shaykh Mufīd, and even the renowned Sunni scholar al-Ghazālī all advocated for the practice of prayer at this location.

Sadly, like many other sacred sites in Medina, Bayt al-Aḥzān was destroyed over a century ago by the Wahhabi-Saudi forces. The destruction of this site, as part of the broader devastation of Jannat al-Baqiʿ, marked a tragic attempt to erase the memory of the Ahl al-Bayt (A) and their spiritual and historical importance in Islam.

🇪🇬 Breaking: Egypt’s Dar Al-Ifta declared that “Calling for jihad without taking into account the nation’s capabilities and realities is irresponsible and violates legitimate principles.”

Religious discourse is once again being weaponized as a political tool. Arab and Turkish regimes have long used religion for soft propaganda. But when their image takes a hit — like Turkey getting humiliated by Israel — they flip the script, flexing some borrowed mantis' biceps by issuing reactionary “anti-Israel jihad fatwas” that blatantly contradict their past positions.

Who exactly are these fatwas for? Fatwas are not jokes. They’re not props for damage control or tools for salvaging credibility.

Better do only duas!

✅ | That is why Wilayat al-Faqih is necessary. It exposes the failure of Islamic nations—regardless of their beliefs or sects. This weakness and collapse stem from not understanding the importance of governance under a qualified jurist. Those who still don’t grasp this need to learn—urgently.

In the absence of strong, knowledgeable leadership, chaos prevails. Sectarianism and division have plagued the Muslim world, with each group believing their interpretation of Islam is superior. This disunity only weakens the overall strength of the ummah, preventing progress and stability.

A true Islamic government, led by a god fearing faqih, provides not only religious guidance but also the necessary structure for political, social, and economic development. Without it, nations remain fractured, vulnerable, and unable to advance on the global stage. To ignore the importance of such leadership is to continue down the path of decline and irrelevance.
