Part 6/11:
As centuries passed, the Arabian Peninsula saw the rise of the Wahhabi movement led by Muhammad Ibn Abd el Wahab in the 18th century. His radical interpretation of Islam called for a return to the fundamentals of the faith, labeling other Muslims as infidels. This movement found an ally in Mohammed Ibn Saud, the leader of the Al Saud clan. Their pact established a new power structure based on religious devotion and conquest, leading to militaristic expansions justified by a command from God.
