"I am but one of you; whatever troubles you, troubles me; whatever pleases you, pleases me." ~ The legend that was King Faisal b. Abdulaziz of Saudi Arabia.

At thirteen, he embarked on a journey that changed the course of history as he went on to achieve a lot not only for his country but for the entire Muslim World during his life. A true leader!

His biography is one of the most interesting reads and here are some key highlights:
1. His role in the development of Islamic Finance 
2. Establishment of the Islamic University of Madinah
3. Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques
4. His stance for Palestine 
5. Relationship with Pakistan
May Allah reward him and elevate his ranks in Paradise, Ameen.

"The Islamic call, when it emerged from these places and spread its light to all parts of the earth, was a good call that calls for peace, calls for truth, calls for justice and calls for equality, and this is what our noble Sharia achieves, and this is what we must follow and adhere to."
"We are not the ones who say, 'We will work, but we are used to God's power to say: We have worked."
"If I were not a king, I would be a teacher."
"We want this Kingdom to be a beacon of light for humanity, now and fifty years from now."
