ABDUL ALI READER DEPARTMENT OF ISLAMIC STUDIES ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH (INDIA) 1997 /•, •^iX ,:Q. ABSTRACT It is a well-known fact of history that ever since the assassination of capital Uthman in 656 A.D. the Political importance of Central Arabia, the cradle of Islam , including its two holiest cities Mecca and Medina, paled into in insignificance. The fourth Rashidi Calif 'Ali bin Abi Talib had already left Medina and made Kufa in Iraq his new capital not only because it was the main base of his power, but also because the weight of the far-flung expanding Islamic Empire had shifted its centre of gravity to the north. From that time onwards even Mecca and Medina came into the news only once annually on the occasion of the Haj. It was for similar reasons that the 'Umayyads 661-750 A.D. ruled form Damascus in Syria, while the Abbasids (750- 1258 A.D ) made Baghdad in Iraq their capital. However , after a long gap of inertia, Central Arabia again came into the limelight of the Muslim world with the rise of the Wahhabi movement launched jointly by the religious reformer Muhammad ibn Abd al Wahhab and his ally Muhammad bin saud, a chieftain of the town of Dar'iyah situated between *Uyayana and Riyadh in the fertile Wadi Hanifa. There can be no denying the fact that the early rulers of the Saudi family succeeded in bringing about political stability in strife-torn Central Arabia by fusing together the numerous war-like Bedouin tribes and the settled communities into a political entity under the banner of standard, Unitarian Islam as revived and preached by Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab.

The West failed to predict the emergence of al- Qaeda in new forms across the Middle East and North Africa. It was blindsided by the ISIS sweep across Syria and Iraq, which at least temporarily changed the map of the Middle East. Both movements have skillfully continued to evolve and proliferate— and surprise. What’s next? Twenty experts from think tanks and universities across the United States explore the world’s deadliest movements, their strate- gies, the future scenarios, and policy considerations. This report reflects their analy sis and diverse views.

    The effects of the environment on Costumes and embroidered handcrafts in Najd desert tribes Tahani Nasir Saleh Al-ajaji Princess Noura Bint Abdulrahman University [email protected] Laila Saleh Al-Bassam (PhD) Princess Noura Bint Abdulrahman University [email protected] Abstract: Traditional Costumes is considered as a documentary resource through which the image of a given community is portrayed with all its economic, social and psychological aspects, as well as the manifestation of the interaction of humans with their environment. Due to its vast size, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is distinguished by its multicultural diversity. Thus; every area of the kingdom is characterized according to its habits, customs, and natural environment. Such diversity in life styles produces diversity in the Costumes and handcraft styles and decoration among Bedouins and city dwellers. To preserve heritage from being lost or forgotten due to social and economic changes as well as Bedouins settling down in villages and cities, the researcher has chosen this vital part of heritage. The researcher has followed field data collection. The methodology of data collection varied and included: a questionnaire, personal interviews, observation, regulated note taking, voice recording, digital photos and video recording of clothes and embroidered pieces. This research follows the descriptive historical methodology. The research goals were met. This research aims to: -The changes that traditional Costumes and embroidered handcrafts of Najd desert tribes .went through

AlMalik THROUGH STOREFRONT AND STREET SIGNAGE REDESIGN RESUMEN Las calles, barrios y ciudades de Arabia Saudita se encuentran en un estado de construcción permanente desde hace varias décadas, incentivando a la población de a adaptarse al cambio y la transformación, a estar abiertos a cambios constantes, a anticipar la magnitud de desarrollos futuros y a anhelar que el futuro se convierta en presente. El futuro, como se describe en la Visión 2030 del Príncipe Heredero Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud, promete tres objetivos principales: una economía próspera, una sociedad vibrante y una nación ambiciosa. Afortunadamente, para la capital, Riad, varios proyectos se están acercando a su finalización, haciendo cambios significativos en las calles, imagen y perfil de la ciudad. Esto configura cómo los ciudadanos interactúan con toda la ciudad, cómo se integran y reconocen nuevas calles, edificios y distritos.
