A tribute to the late UAE President


It was shocking to learn that the President of UAE Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan al-Nahiyan was no more. We pray to Almighty Allah for the salvation of his departed soul and for granting the fortitude to the members of his bereaved family and countrymen to bear this loss.

Undoubtedly the late President was a leader of high-esteem with modern thoughts and understandings who through his untiring efforts turned his desert country green and made the United Arab Emirates one of the advanced countries in the Arab lands and the world. His people loved him genuinely.

Meanwhile I sincerely wish success for the acting President of UAE, Sheikh Maktoum bin Rashid who is also a dynamic leader in running his country smoothly during the transition period.
