In most people's minds, Queen Elizabeth II is a typical white woman, not only that, people who are slightly interested in Britain will also know that the Queen is not only the head of the British nobility, but also the religious leader, but the Moroccan historian Abdelhamid Al-Aouni, after studying Queen Elizabeth II's ancestors 43 generations above, found that the current Queen of England is a distant descendant of The founder of Islam, Mohammed. Perhaps this also explains why Britain and the tycoons of the Arab world are so intimate, the local media reported on January 4.
The Arnoni expert therefore wrote with great emotion that this discovery has built a bridge between our two religions and different countries.
So how exactly did the queen relate to the saints of the Arab world?
That begins with one of her Spanish ancestors, who was the legendary Spanish ancestor who united blood through marriage, connecting modern society with the medieval pyramid-top people.
This has left historians stunned.
After studying the genealogy of the Queen of England up to 43 generations, it is clear that it has a rich and colorful history.
First of all, the Queen of England is a very intuitive descendant of Queen Victoria.
Elizabeth II's pure aristocratic lineage was able to run upward through the entire Family of The Earls of Cambridge (the Duke of Cambridge, the Queen's eldest grandson, Prince William, was a different story), and even to the time of Medieval Muslim-occupied Spain.
Due to the turbulent situation and the unquenchable war, a Muslim princess named Zaida was forced to flee from her hometown of Seville, and she later married Alfonso VI, king of Spain, who was also called Castile at the time, and became a concubine in the harem, that is, the princess.
Although Zaida was born in Seville, she is a descendant of the Abadid dynasty and is a pure Arab woman.
The Abadid dynasty was founded in 1023 by Abu al-Qasim Muhammad ibn Abbad, a descendant of Muhammad of the "Jade Disc" who belonged to the noblest bloodline in the Muslim world.
Then there is the exotic princess Princess Zaida, who after marriage, went into the countryside and eventually converted to Christianity, and at least gave birth to a descendant for King Alfonso VI, a son named Sancho.
Counting further down, among the descendants of Princess Zeida, a girl ushered in her own transnational marriage, married to the Earl of Cambridge, the direct ancestor of Queen Elizabeth II, and the future will not be elaborated.
Of course, this research experience has been controversial since its inception.
Many fellow historians disagree with many of the details of the story, with some saying zaida's background needs to be discussed and cannot be nailed down.
Perhaps that's the fascinating thing about history.
