Abstract
The article "Oceanic Wahhabism" published in the Journal of World History explores the emergence of Wahhabism and the First Saudi State in the Arabian Peninsula and Gulf in the early 19th century. It focuses on figures like Sulayman bin 'Abd Allah and Rahmah bin Jabir, shedding light on their roles in political, social, and economic transformations in the region. The text challenges conventional narratives by highlighting the interconnectedness of Wahhabi persons with the broader Indian Ocean world, emphasizing their involvement in maritime commerce and geopolitical affairs. Through a nuanced examination of historical events and figures, the article presents an oceanic perspective on Wahhabism, reframing it as part of a multidimensional global context rather than a localized phenomenon.
