Abdulaziz ibn Muhammad Al Saud

Imam Abdulaziz ibn Muhammad Al Saud (1720–1803) was the second ruler of the Emirate of Diriyah and the first Saudi state. Raised and educated by Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab, whose leading student he became and whose daughter he married, he commanded the state's armies in his father's lifetime and succeeded him in 1765; under him the state reached Riyadh, al-Hasa, Qatar, Bahrain and the Hejaz, and his forces sacked Karbala in 1802. He was assassinated at Diriyah in November 1803 while leading the prayer, and his son Saud succeeded him.
