The guardian of Madinah, the lion of the desert, Umar Fakhr ud-Din Pasha.

He was an Ottoman career officer, who served as the commander of the Ottoman Army and governor of Madinah from 1916 to 1919.

When the Muslim Ummah was betrayed by traitors who sided with the west to destroy the Ottoman Caliphate, Fakhr ud-Din Pasha defend the blessed city of Madinah with his army for over two years.

He also brought the Holy Relics of the Prophet ﷺ and other revered figures in Islamic history back to Istanbul.

May Allah raise his status and grant him the company of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in Paradise.

Even if the Ottomans die, their souls shall always await at the blessed Rawdah of Rasulullah ﷺ.
