The Conquest of al-Hasa was achieved by the Saudi forces of ibn Saud with support from the Ikhwan^[1] in April 1913.^[2] The Oasis of al-Hasa was conquered from an Ottoman garrison, who had controlled the area since 1871.^[3]

The Saudi Shia religious community leaders negotiated a surrender and recognition of the Saudi political authority in exchange for leniency and religious freedom, which was granted at the time by Ibn Saud.^[1]

The Ottomans swiftly acknowledged the loss of al-Hasa, and recognized al-Hasa and Nejd as being under the rule of Ibn Saud.^[2]
