History of Najd
And the Call of Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab (Salafism).
It was less than half a century after the death of Timur Lenk, and the Arabs were still destined to remain in Spain for another half century, and half a century before Columbus discovered America, when in 1446 he went as a citizen of the common people of Qatif, and from a suburb there called Diriyah, to visit his cousin Ibn al-Duru’ who had settled long ago in Manfuha, a village near Riyadh in the middle of the Arabian Peninsula. This cousin of his was the leader of the al-Duru’ clan who lived in the deserted villages of Jaz’ and Hadr al-Yamamah at the present time, and he was a wealthy man with extensive property that needed care and development, so he gave his guest two plots of land twelve miles away in the upper valley from his lands, one of them called al-Ghasiba and the other al-Mulaybid. And in this simple picture the migration of the shields to that valley and their settlement in it began.
Then the era passed until it became known as Diriyah in memory of the mother village where the ancestors of its inhabitants grew up, near the Persian Gulf. It is not possible to be certain of the identity of the person who was lavished with these properties, whether it was Maneh Al-Mureidi himself, who initiated contact with that stranger to the investigation, or his father
Rabiah. In any case, it was Rabiah who laid the foundations for the development of the area of that diaspora and its aggressive expansion at the expense of its neighbors, but the credit goes to Maneh and his son Rabiah for being the earliest known ancestors of the Saudi house. It is the house that dominated the political scene in the Arabian Peninsula for the last two hundred years
