Discussion on Saudi Royal Family Origins

If we take Saudi Arabia, there are statements

and writings and posts that discuss

the lineage of Al Saud, tracing them back to

their grandfather, whose name was

Murkhan. They say, what was his name, their great patriarch,

Murkhan. And many genealogy scholars

say that his name was not Murkhan, but

Mordkhan, Mordechai, Mordechai, or Morkhai,

or Mordechai, in that sense.

And they speak of facts, meaning they discuss

his history, how he was Jewish and a merchant.

And he came to the land of the Two Holy Mosques. Then

he rose in rank until he entered

the ruling family and changed his name

from Mordechai to what? To Murkhan or

Mordkhan, and so on. So this too, my brothers, is among

the matters that must be put on

the table for research.
