This is what I have mentioned at the end of this part of the news of the prisoners, which I have endured. I present this introduction in remembrance of the prison systems and the experience of the jailer.

To Sayyid Idris, who gave the name Sayyid to every prisoner from the tribes of the Kordofan region, the present regions.

Regarding the aforementioned Sayyid, he was an Arab from the tribe of Al-Jazali, who settled in Kordofan. He has already told us about their customs, such as the fact that a girl does not get married until she has borne several children from her husband.

Sayyid was one of the most prominent figures. They killed his brother and his uncle, and he was the leader of the highwaymen and brigands.

When the Mahdist call appeared in the region of Kordofan, Sayyid joined the call for guidance. He named the prison "Prison of the Sayyid."

As for his appearance, he was tall and thin.

He was a man who was known for his cruelty and his greed. He was known for his exploitation of the prisoners' money.

He was from the tribe of the Jallaba and their leaders were from the wealthy.

His prison was like a fortress.

He was known for his cruelty and his greed. He was known for his exploitation of the prisoners' money.
