Jeddah, Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 🌴✨️

📍 Jeddah ,Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦

This is the shortest route between Seattle and the Saudi city of Jeddah, on a two-dimensional surface the shortest distance is the straight line between two points, however the map is a representation of a spherical surface and on it the shortest distance cut between two points is the geodesic which is seen as a curved line when represented on a plane. 🙂

President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan was welcomed by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman of Saudi Arabia in Jeddah, the first stop of his visit to the Gulf region, with an official ceremony.

𝐇𝐞𝐣𝐚𝐳 (𝐌𝐞𝐜𝐜𝐚 & 𝐌𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐚) 𝐢𝐧 𝐎𝐭𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧 𝐄𝐫𝐚 ! The Arab citizens of Hejaz province were given special tax reliefs and were supported by many Vakf properties (endowment funds). Ottoman governer of Hejaz was stationed in Jeddah, not Mecca or Medina out of respect for the House of Shareef which ruled Hejaz since Abassid era. Right after taking over Hejaz during the reign of First Ottoman Caliph Yavuz Selim (1512-1520), Ottomans co-opted House of Shareef and let them rule Hejaz with considerable autonomy. Yet, so called modern 'historians' would want us to believe that somehow the Ottomans were Turkic nationalists who hated the Arabs which is gross propaganda and needs to be refuted. While is true that the "Young Turks" were racists and Arabophobic but their wrongful anti-Arab policies shouldn't be linked with the Ottoman rulers since the former were worst political opponents of Ottoman Sultans. They dethroned Sultan Abdulhamid II and exiled him to the Altini Mansion in Thessaloniki. All of this was dictated to Young Turks by their Masonic Jewish masters from Thessaloniki, Greece. A fact accepted by prominent Western scholars. Ottoman rulers for around 400 years ruled the Arabs with fairness and respect by honoring the Arab culture and language. There was no attempt to Turkify the Arabs or discriminate them, rather they were always treated like first class citizens as members of the Muslim Ummah. Professor Kenneth W Harl states that there was little serious opposition to Ottoman rule in Arab provinces until 19th century when nationalistic movements began to rise. Still, majority Ottoman Arab Muslims rejected Arabism and chose Pan-Islamic approach by supporting the Ottoman state in World War 1. Some 30 percent or more of the wartime Ottoman military of 3 million was been made up of Arab conscripts. Arab units served with distinction on all fronts, including Gallipoli, Russia, Palestine, Iraq, and Syria. O Allah grant the great Muhammadan Ummah same unity.
