	Puncturing the Devil’s Dream about the Hadiths of Najd and Tamim
		The land of Najd, which for two centuries has been the crucible of the Wahhabi doctrine, is the subject of a body of interesting hadiths and early narrations, which repay close analysis.
		Najd, by contrast, is mostly plateau, culminating in peaks such as Jabal Tayyi’ (1300 metres), in the Jabal Shammar range.
		It is significant that although Najd is the closest of lands to Makka and Madina, it is not praised by any one of these hadiths.

		On the other side, the Najd claimed Bedouins had been incensed by the playing of trumpets by the Egyptians as musical instruments were prohibited in the sacrosanct area of Mina where the incident occurred.
		However, as the government forces battled the mob, soldiers with the Egyptian mahmal opened fire indiscriminately on the areas in which the pilgrims from the Najd were camping, killing 25 innocent men, women and children, in addition to 40 camels.
		Despite the calamity that befell them, when the people of the Najd heard these words they returned to their senses and, within minutes, they all returned to their campsites.

		Led by the Muslim scholar Muhammad ibn 'Abd al- Wahhab and the Al Sa'ud family, the movement consolidated Najd and expanded into Mecca in 1803.

		Ibn Sa'ud proclaimed the unified Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in 1932, and his provincial capital of Riyadh became the national capital, although Jidda continued as the diplomatic capital.

		It was on one of those days when Muhammad of Najd and I had become very intimate friends that I received a message from London ordering me to leave for the cities of Kerbelaa and Najaf, the two most popular Shiite centers of knowledge and spirituality.
		Yet I was happy because I was sure that this ignorant and morally depraved man was going to establish a new sect, which in turn would demolish Islam from within, and that I was the composer of the heretical tenets of this new sect.
		Muhammad of Najd promised me that he would implement all the six articles of the scheme and added, "For the time being I can execute them only partly." He was right in this word of his.

		Najd has been deprived of the prayers of the Holy Prophet (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallam) and therefore Najd has the seal of misery and misfortune and hoping for any good from there is going against the Will of Allah.
