Notes
Correspondence relating to a proposal by the Ruler of Iraq, King Feisal [Fayṣal al-Awwal ibn al-Ḥusayn ibn ‘Alī al-Hāshimī], to organise a conference of rulers from the Islamic world, in order to settle the future administration of Islam’s holy cities. The proposal was in response to the invasion of Hejaz by Wahabi [Wahhabi] troops under the Sultan of Najd [‘Abd al-‘Azīz bin ‘Abd al-Raḥmān bin Fayṣal Āl Sa‘ūd]. The correspondence covers: the British Government’s disapproval of King Feisal’s plan; reports on Muslim opinion in Morocco over the deposition of King Hussein [Ḥusayn ibn ‘Alī al-Hāshimī]; the despatch of a Hejaz Government delegation to India; the proposed visit of a Wahabi (or Najd) delegation to India, the East Indies, and Egypt.The item’s principal correspondents include: the High Commissioner of Iraq, Henry Robert Conway Dobbs; the Secretary of State for the Colonies, Leopold Charles Maurice Stennett Amery; the Acting British Consul at Jeddah, S R Jordan; the Foreign Office; the Foreign and Political Department of the Government of India. | 1 item (89 folios) | more | less
