In October 2006, a large part of the Royal Guard, and some of the National Guard, led by Bandar bin Abdul Aziz led a palace coup in Riyadh. It was rumoured that Bandar bin Abdul Aziz was highly religious and believed his relatives were becoming anti-Islamic. He organised with other Saudi Royals in the Royal Guard and National Guard for overthrow King Adbullah. The coup was incredibly violent, with several hundred dying, including the King and most of the top of the Royal Family. The coup was put down by The Airborne Brigade of the Saudi Arabian Army, led by Brigadier General Muhammad Abdul Qadir. The only Royal who both survived, and stayed in Saudi Arabia was Abdulaziz bin Fahd, who became King. He appointed Muhammad Abdul Qadir as Prime Minister, and they jointly appointed a new "Consultative Assembly".

Qadir has been silent about the Abortive Coup, all he has said was that he acted "in the hour of the nation's need". Some has asked how Qadir could have acted so rapidly, hinting that he had advanced knowledge of the Abortive Coup, while others point to the fact that the Airborne Brigade is usually deployed near Israel, and was redeployed near Riyadh a short time before the Coup. Qadir himself dimissed the latter concern by saying that the deployment was necessary to bring the Airborne Brigade closer to the main [[Royal Saudi Air Force|RSAF]] transport base, which would make training and combat deployment easier.

Most Western commentators have simply said that Qadir is opportunistic, and when he saw his chance to achieve prominence, he took it eagerly.
