Islamic State – Saudi Arabia Province

The Islamic State – Saudi Arabia Province (IS–SAP; Arabic: الدولة الإسلامية – ولاية المملكة العربية السعودية, romanized: al-Dawlat al-'Islamiat – Wilayat al-Mamlakat al-Earabiat al-Sueudia), referred to by the Islamic State as its Province of the Two Holy Mosques (Arabic: ولاية الحرمين, romanized: Wilayat al-Haramayn) and self-described as Najd Province (Arabic: ولاية النجد, romanized: Wilayat an-Najd), was a branch of the militant Islamist group Islamic State (IS), active in Saudi Arabia. The group, formed on 13 November 2014, conducted a number of attacks in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia between November 2014 and March 2017. The group was generally considered less active than other established affiliates of the Islamic State, notably the Islamic State – West Africa Province (ISWAP) and Islamic State – Khorasan Province (ISIS–K). As of 2024 the group appears to be inactive.
