From the sands of pre-Islamic Arabia to the corridors of global power, the history of Saudi Arabia is a story of transformation unlike any other. Lucas and Luna guide listeners through the rise of the first Saudi state in 1744 under Muhammad ibn Saud and the alliance with reformer Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab, whose puritanical interpretation of Islam still shapes the kingdom today. The show traces the brutal expansion of the House of Saud across the Arabian Peninsula, the demise of the first and second states, and the eventual establishment of the modern Kingdom in 1932 by Abdulaziz ibn Saud. It explores the pivotal 1744 pact, the discovery of oil in 1938, and the subsequent creation of the world's largest oil company, Saudi Aramco. The narrative delves into the reign of King Faisal, the oil embargo of 1973, the rise of religious conservatism, and the kingdom's complex relationship with the West. Controversial topics like the 1979 Grand Mosque seizure, the role of the religious police, and the recent Vision 2030 reforms under Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman are examined with nuance. The show also covers the Hijaz region, the holy cities of Mecca and Medina, the impact of Wahhabism, and the shifting dynamics of tribal and state power. This is not a straightforward chronicle but a deep investigation into how a desert kingdom became an indispensable player in global energy, religion, and geopolitics. #SaudiArabia #HouseOfSaud #Wahhabism #AbdulazizIbnSaud #ArabianPeninsula #SaudiAramco #OilHistory #Hijaz #Mecca #Medina #FirstSaudiState #Vision2030 #MohammedBinSalman #GrandMosqueSeizure #MiddleEastHistory #History #WorldHistory #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo© 2026 Fexingo.

    2026/06/05
    In this episode, Lucas and Luna revisit the immediate aftermath of the 1979 Grand Mosque seizure in Mecca, exploring how the Saudi state's response reshaped the kingdom's religious and political landscape. They discuss the role of the Sahwa movement, the rise of conservative ulema like Sheikh Abdulaziz bin Baz, the empowerment of the religious police, and the shift in Saudi foreign policy toward exporting Wahhabism. The conversation also covers the impact on women's rights, the crackdown on Shia dissent, and the long-term consequences for the House of Saud's legitimacy. Specific figures include Juhayman al-Otaybi, Muhammad al-Qahtani, King Khaled, and Prince Nayef. The episode ties these events to the broader Arab Cold War and the Iranian Revolution of 1979. #GrandMosqueSiege #Juhayman #Sahwa #Wahhabism #Mecca #1979 #KingKhaled #BinBaz #ReligiousPolice #Mutawa #ShiaUprising #IranianRevolution #ArabColdWar #HouseOfSaud #IslamicAwakening #History #FexingoHistory #MiddleEast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

    The 1818 Fall of Diriyah: Wahhabi Capital Destroyed
    2026/06/04
    Episode 79 of The History of Saudi Arabia takes us back to the end of the first Saudi state, when the Ottoman-Egyptian army under Ibrahim Pasha marched across the Arabian Peninsula to crush the rising Wahhabi emirate. We explore the brutal siege of Diriyah in 1818, the destruction of the capital, and the fall of Imam Abdullah bin Saud. This episode covers the Ottoman response to the Karbala sack (1803), the Egyptian campaign led by Tusun Pasha and later Ibrahim Pasha, the battles of Al Hinakiyah and Turaba, and the final surrender. We also touch on the fate of Abdullah bin Saud, who was executed in Constantinople, and the subsequent Egyptian occupation of Najd. The collapse of the first Saudi state set the stage for the second Saudi state under Turki bin Abdullah. A pivotal turning point in Arabian history. #SaudiArabia #Wahhabi #Diriyah #IbrahimPasha #OttomanEmpire #MuhammadAli #AbdullahbinSaud #Najd #ArabianPeninsula #EgyptianOccupation #SiegeOfDiriyah #1818 #FirstSaudiState #Karbala #TusunPasha #AlHinakiyah #Turaba #History #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
