| In 930AD, main Hejazi cities Medina, Mecca and Taif were heavily sacked by Qarmatians. |
|
| However, it is not historically confirmed that Jeddah it self was attacked by Qarmatians too. |
|
| In 930, the Ismaili group known as the Qarmatians unsuccessfully rebelled against the Abbassids, sacked Mecca and stole the Black Stone, which was eventually retrieved. |
|
| The city was abandoned in the 10th century following the changes that saw the decline of the Abbasid caliphate, notably the revolt of the Qarmatians. |
