Shaykh Abdullah Faysal
Abdullah al-Faisal ibn Abd al-Aziz (1923 - May 8, 2007) was the eldest son of the late Faisal ibn Abdul Aziz and Sultana, daughter of Ahmad ibn Muhammad of the influential al-Sudairi family of Najd.
His government service began as Viceroy of the Hejaz often deputizing as the Kingdom's Foreign Minister when accompanying King Faisal in his international travels. He also served as Minister of Health from 1949-1950 and as the Interior Minister from 1951-1959.
Prince Abdullah later retired from politics to concentrate on his business interests, notably the Al Faisaliah Group which is among Saudi Arabia's most diversified business empires. He chaired the prominent King Faisal Foundation, and was also a noted poet - his publications, including Mahrum: Min Wahye al Hirman have been critically esteemed. May Allah forgive his sins and also forgive the sins of all the followers of Prophet Muhammed(SAW). May Allah make his questioning of Grave easy on him,May Allah Grant highest stage in Jannah(Firdaws). ameen.
