The devilry anticipated by the prophet Muhammad (Peace and Blessing be Upon Him)
In 1157 AH (1744 CE) Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab made Bay'ah (oath of allegiance) with Muhammad ibn Sa'ud where it was agreed to hold the political power in the hands of the clan of Aal al-Saud (House of Saud, Royal family) and the religious leadership in the hands of the clan of Aal al-Sheikh (Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab and his generations) and this power division has been kept until now. This event (the oath) is written in the book of Unwan al-Majd fe Tarikh al-Najd, Vol. 1, Page 41 , which was written and printed in Saudi Arabia.
Let's have a look at the origin of these two clans.
In the page 67 of this book, the origin of al-Saud is explained as:
Muhammad ibn Saud ibn Muqran ibn Markhan ibn Ibrahim ibn Musa ibn Rabi`a ibn Maane'...
All of Wahhabi authors agree that the origin of al-Saud is from Rabi`a ibn Nazar ibn Ma'd ibn Adnan.
