Beginning of his Rule

Muhammad began his rule in early 1921, after Prince Abdullah's reign ended, which signaled the end of the Emirate of Jabal Shammar. Abdul Aziz Al-Saud made it his goal to include Ha'il, and by extension, the rest of the territory occupied by Jabal Shammar, in his nation.[1] Muhammad Al-Talāl, the people of Ha'il, the Shammar tribe, and the Bani Tamim tribe fought several battles against the Al-Saudi forces, but King Aziz reigned triumphant, where the Kingdom of Ha'il (Jabal Shammar) joined the Saudi State.

Fall of Ha'il

Ha'il fell at the hands of King Aziz on 2 November, 1921, where upon the fall, Prince Muhammad Al-Talāl moved to Riyadh, and Musaed bin Abdul Aziz Al-Saud married his daughter, Princess Watfa, who bore Musaed a son, Faisal, who later assassinated King Faisal[2].

Death

Muhammad bin Talāl died in Riyadh in 1954.
