      Saudi here as well, there are some mistakes, for example, Juhayman's predecessor didnt rebel because of westernisation, he rebelled with the Ikhwan because the Saudis limited their raids into kuwait, jordan and other nations as King Abdulaziz wanted to consolidate his gains, they declared the King a kafir for doing so, and for dealing with the British later on.

    An odd question; Al-Otaybi wanted to usher in a more conservative Islamic way of life in Saudi Arabia, so he and his cohorts stage an armed insurrection inside the Grand Mosque, spilling blood in the process. However, by Islamic law, violence is strictly forbidden inside the mosque... did it not occur to him, Al-Qahtani, and their followers that they were committing an immensely sacrilegious crime against Islam by doing this?
    I know this is a weird question, but it does have me perplexed. Thank you in advance for any illumination.

    • @archivalfootage1

      The thing is these type of fanatics do not care. The truly believe they are right. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ fortold us about these type of people. They are called khawarji. They spill blood and cause destruction in the name of defending Islam. The Muslims have been dealing with these types for a very long time. In the Middle Ages they were assassinating Muslim rulers and in the modern world they have been blowing up buildings and people.

      He was stupid, picking and choosing from the religion to meet his goals. You're not allowed to spill any blood in the Sacred Grounds of the Mosque, not even animal.
      Blood isn't even the focus, its life. Even ripping out weeds or plants that weren't planted there by people is considered haram.
      Not sure if it was ignorance or blatant idiocy.

    He's not his grandfather 😂 They're from two completely separate parts of the tribe.
    Juhaiman is *Al-Ruqi* Al-Otaibi, while Sheikh Sultan is *Al-Muqati* Al-Otaibi.

    Very interesting documentary. I remember the seige, I was 21 years old. But I didn't know the background to the incident. Keep up the good work.

    My dad was a young boy living in Makkah when this event happened, he told me stories about climbing up the mountains with his friends just to watch the grand mosques and the battles live since there wasn't visual media coverage back then (other than the radio). They used to get yelled at by their parents for doing it because of how dangerous the situation was and sinpers were always ready to shoot down anyone at any sight

    Interestingly enough, my dad owns a book called the Siege of Mecca, about this exact incident, and I read it as a teenager. It's surreal knowing of it considering how very few even mention it ever happened...
