Reign

Prince Mishari decided to assassinate Imam Turki bin Abdullah Al Saud after Friday prayers, where the imam would be unarmed and unarmed. He chose Ibrahim bin Hamza to carry out the operation. He went to the mosque (the mosque of Imam Turki bin Abdullah currently) and prayed next to his uncle, Imam Turki, who divided his toothpick into two halves and gave it to Mashari.

Prince Mishari looked at bin Hamza, who was in the second row behind Imam Turki and Mashari and asked him not to kill his uncle and to stop the operation, but Ibrahim bin Hamza rebelled against him and said the word that became, for example, a common example: He meant Imam Turki, and Mashari said the head of the imam, then he threw the pistol (Webley) in front of the people, and Ibrahim bin Hamza declared Prince Mashari the ruler of Riyadh.

Death

After Prince Faisal bin Turki bin Abdullah Al Saud, on his way to Al-Ahsa, learned of the death of his father, he returned to Riyadh and besieged Imam Mashari bin Abdul Rahman in the Palace of Government for twenty days, until Abdullah bin Ali Al-Rasheed and a number of soldiers stormed the palace and killed Prince Mashari and the slave Ibrahim bin Hamza. And he was able to avenge his father, took power, and declared himself an imam. With this, the war in Najd, which is called the Fitna of Mashari, ended.[1]
