Hadramout over fourteen centuries - Saqaf Ali Al-Kaf

In this book, "Saqaf Ali Al-Kaf" reviews the history of Hadhramaut from the dawn of Islam to the present time, in a simplified style, adhering as much as possible to brevity, highlighting important events and mentioning the countries that have had an influence on the course of life. The research concluded with a geographical division of Hadhramaut, involuntarily, dividing it into two parts: a coastal part and an interior part. It also discussed its historical divisions, namely the minor, middle, and major Hadhramaut. When addressing the recording of Hadhramaut's history in the modern era, specifically the era of independence, it was approached through the new political and administrative shape, which made it several provinces of the People's Democratic Republic of Yemen. To clarify further, a chapter was dedicated to the role of the Hadhramis in the diaspora, especially their role in Indonesia and a discussion on East Africa. Additionally, tables were included to show the reader the number of Hadhrami rulers, their periods of rule, and the reasons for their end and accusations. The appendices include books of the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, for the kings of Hadhramaut, treaties, and materials from family law that contradict Islamic Sharia, as well as a message from the Society of Guidance to the British Foreign Ministry, with the purpose of enabling the reader to review these texts directly and to expand on what was mentioned in the research.
