Only history has the right to talk fairly and objectively of my
late father prince Mohammed Abdulrahman Alfaisal
Alsaud, may Allah have mercy on him. As for me, I find it
extremely difficult to write of him and I believe that others,
who lived in his time and were close to him, would be in a
better position to write about his honorable stands, noble
biography, amicable attributes, great struggle, and his
honorable stand with and support for his brother King
Abdulaziz, God’s mercy on both of them. Determined with
the power of their faith, they both decided to win the battle
for Riyadh or martyrdom and, with the care and help of
Allah, they indeed gained Riyadh back in the year 1319AH,
thus, restoring the glory and rightful kingship of their
forefathers.
I have to admit that the thought of writing a book about my
father has often passed by my mind. As time passed, many
brethren encouraged and blessed my thought which offered
me more enthusiasm to do so. With the blessing of Allah, I
embarked on the fulfillment of my thought which I have
always considered a dream and an honest wish that awaits
its realization.
