A former army person, Juhayman al- Otaibi, Terrorist who attacked Kaaba, became a religious extremist and thus attacked one of the holiest places of Islam, Masjid Al-Haram. Also in 1979, led to its seizure by calling it a protest against the house of Saud and the Saudi Monarchy.
This appeared to be the biggest catastrophe to take place on the 20th of November, 1979. On that day, a group of around 350 men controlled the grand mosque in the directions of Juayman al-Otaibi. It continued for 14 days until the security forces followed a strict measure.
