The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
 
Message from the Ambassador
9/23/2005
 

          Today, September 23, 2005 coincides with the Great Unification of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. This memorable occasion is a Glorious Day in the history of the Nation.
On this Day, we recall with pride and dignity the memories of our great leaders. On this Day, His Majesty late King Abdul Aziz bin Abdul Rahman Al-Saud, founder and architect of the Nation, had succeeded in unifying the whole Arab Peninsula and gave it the name of "Kingdom of Saudi Arabia" and placed it under the lofty banner of Monotheism (La Ilaha Illallahu Mohammadur Rasulullah).
His Majesty, late King Abdul Aziz, who is considered to be one of the towering personalities of modem history, finally succeeded, through a strenuous journey of struggles, to re-unite and re-build the state of Saudi Arabia.
The first emergence of Saudi Arabia state occurred in the seventeen century when Imam Mohammad Bin Saud, first founder of Saudi state, with the support of Sheikh Mohammad Bin Abdul Wahab, had given a clarion call for preaching the ideal Islamic Sharia. May Allah bless them with His mercy.
Inspite of extreme difficulties and many challenges that His Majesty late King had to face in order to unify the nation and get it back on the right track (third phase of unification) he was miraculously successful in maintaining the fabric of the entity of the society and enhancing its bonds. It may be mentioned here that the society was then passing through . 'dark days' witnessing internecine fighting and conflicts. But His Majesty late King with his even-handed justice and able administration united the society and firmly connected the whole people with the injunctions of the Holy Quran and the teachings of the Prophet of Allah as their constitution.
After His late Majesty, the charges and the banner had been carried by his able, sincere and devoted sons-His Majesty King Saud, His Majesty King Faisal, His Majesty King Khaled and His Majesty King Fahd. May Allah bless all of them with His eternal blessings. After their Majesties the onerous responsibility is now being shouldered by The Custodian of The Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah Bin Abdul Aziz upon whom the people of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia have placed their trust. May Allah save him. During the time of late King Fahd Bin Abdul Aziz and the Custodian of The Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah Bin Abdul Aziz Saudi Arabia reached the pinnacle of the glory of civilisation. During their glorious time the Great expansion work of the Two Holy Mosques was completed. They now accommodate largest possible numbers of Umra and Haj pilgrims.
The aforesaid sacrifices, efforts, developments and flourishing were not only limited to the Kingdom but also went beyond its border to reach the brotherly and friendly countries through generous help and assistance. It may be mentioned here that the grants given by Saudi Arabia to the People's Republic of Bangladesh comes to more than one billion US dollars that have been used in the building of Multi-purpose cyclone shelters in the coastal areas and other different projects in Bangladesh.
I wish that with the blessings of Allah the bonds of friendship, between the Kingdom and Bangladesh would witness more and more development and flourishing in the days ahead.
I would like to conclude with an earnest prayer to Almighty Allah to bring back this happy occasion for many years to come to Saudi people and the Islamic Ummah under the dynamic leadership of The Custodian of The Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah Bin Abdul Aziz, and His Royal Highness Crown Prince Sultan Bin Abdul Aziz. Long live Saudi-Bangla friendship.
