This is the 4 th installment of this series which began June 7, 2024, wherein we
continue to highlight the stories of Straight Egyptian Arabians that were originally
featured in the Legacy Section of Volume XII of the Reference Handbook of
Straight Egyptian Horses. This special section featured the horses themselves
along with endearing stories of the special relationship they shared with the
humans in their lives. It has been fun hearing from not only the owners of these
horses, but also from others who had the opportunity to interact with them as well.
We trust you’ll enjoy them, too, and look forward to hearing from you about the
impact these horses may have had in your own lives, either individually, up close
and personal, or through their descendants. The mare Bint Magidaa needs no
introduction. She was sired by Khofo (Morafic x Nabilah), and was out of the
important Alaa El Din daughter, Magidaa. She was the dam of 17 registered foals,
9 of which were sired by Shaikh Al Badi (Morafic x Bint Maisa El Saghira), and
among them were the legendary stallions, Ruminaja Ali, Ruminaja Bahjat, and
Alidaar. Also from this cross came Bint Bint Magidaa. She was later bred to The
Minstril and produced Miss Maggie Mae and Magidaa’s Image. Finally, she was
bred to Thee Desperado, and produced the great broodmare sire, Thee Infidel. We
are pleased to feature the lovely Bint Magidaa this week and hope you will share
your stories of the influence she had within the world of the Straight Egyptian
Arabian and beyond.
