Muhammad bin Talal Al Rashid

Muhammad began his rule in early 1921, after the reign of Emir Abdullah bin Mutaib ended, which signaled the end of the Emirate of Jabal Shammar. Abdulaziz Al Saud, Emir of Nejd and future King of Saudi Arabia, made it his goal to take over the territory of Jabal Shammar. Emir Muhammad, the people of Ha'il, and the Shammar and Bani Tamim tribes fought several battles against the Al Saud forces, but Abdulaziz was triumphant, and the Emirate of Ha'il (Jabal Shammar) was subsumed into the Saudi state. Ha'il fell to Abdulaziz on 2 November 1921. Afterwards, Muhammad bin Talal moved to Riyadh. ==Personal life and death==

One of Muhammad's wives was Noura bint Sibhan. After defeating Muhmmad, Abdulaziz forced Muhammad to divorce Noura so that he could marry her himself. Muhammad bin Talāl's granddaughter is Madawi al-Rasheed. Muhammad bin Talāl died in Riyadh in 1954, one year after the death of Abdulaziz al-Saud. ==References==
