ملف ١٩٢٦/٨٧ الجزء ١ "الجزيرة العربية: ابن سعود؛ اللقب؛ الاعتراف به ملكًا للحجاز" [ظ‎‎١‎٢‎٦] (٣٠٦/٢٤٦)

I have done everything I can for the sake of purifying these holy places until the
Almighty God has graciously granted success, conquest of the country and peace.
My determination since I began the work in this country was to follow the
decisions the Moslem world (the Hejaz being part of same) will give with regard to the
future of such holy country.
I have already on more than one occasion circulated an invitation to the Moslems
in general, asking them to hold a Moslem conference to decide what they think best
regarding the future of the Hejaz.
I have again made a general and private call and sent a letter to the Moslem
Governments and nations on 10.4.1344. That letter has been published in all the
newspapers of the world.
It is now more than two months since the date of that letter and I have not
received a reply from anybody except the Caliphate Society in India. For they, may
God bless them, have and are doing all they can for the comfort and happiness of the
Hejaz.
When the Hejaz question was ended in this manner, for which we thank God, the
Hejaz people came to me in multitudes and separately asking me to grant themthe
freedom I had promised them, namely, to decide their own future, and, owing to their
repeated requests, I granted them the freedom to decide what they like regarding their
country, as the Moslem world had remained silent about such an important matter.
Caring only for the good and welfare of the people as far as I can, I pray for
success only from God, on whom I rely and to whom I go back.
