MASARAUTAR JORDAN

About this Novel

Today, a group of slaves from various parts of Africa and some parts of Asia had been gathered in Syria. These men and women would soon be taken to the Kingdom of Jordan, as requested by the palace advisors. The Kingdom of Jordan is located in the Middle East and shares borders with five countries: Palestine, Israel, Syria, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq. It is situated in the Arab region, known for its historical significance as a place where several Prophets are believed to have passed through, including Prophet Ibrahim and Prophet Jesus, on their way to Syria. The history of Jordan involves various tribes, but three main tribes played a significant role in forming the country: Hashmiyyah from the Banu Hashim tribe, Husseiniyyah from Banu Husein, and Urdawa. These tribes united to establish the Kingdom of Jordan. However, tensions arose, especially as Banu Hussein harassed members of the Urd tribe, particularly non-Muslims, leading to conflicts between Jews and Arabs in the region. In May 1968, the World Council, with the support of Saudi Arabia, removed Jordan from Israeli territory. The three tribes of the country were advised to organize themselves and govern.
