Muhammad Ali the Great

In one of the Islamic cities of the Balkans, in the city of Qula, Muhammad Ali was born in the year 1769 AD. He was an Ottoman Turkish Muslim, and he did not belong to the Albanians or to Slavic Macedonia and Greece by cause or lineage. What is confirmed is that his father, "e;Ibrahim Agha,"e; was at the head of a battalion of guardsmen in the city. And that he died while his son was still young, and that the governor of Medina sponsored Muhammad Ali; He had a purely scientific upbringing. He assumed command of some military missions, and showed remarkable courage and physical endurance. When he reached eighteen years of age, he married a woman who was a relative of the governor, and God blessed him with five sons and daughters from her. Muhammad Ali - the great monarch - was very nostalgic for the years of childhood and youth, and he often referred in his conversations to some of the events of those days. Fate wanted Muhammad Ali to leave his first homeland in Qula to a field worthy of heroes. To Egypt, and to enter it at an hour that is also worthy of heroism.
