Abdul Karim Bin Daham Al Daham
Who among us does not know the prince and poet Badr bin Abdul Mohsin bin Abdulaziz Al Saud? We knew him as a human being before he was a prince and a symbol of Saudi, Gulf and Arab culture. May God have mercy on them – is one of the three sides of the majestic golden age of Saudi culture, which after His Highness Prince Abdullah Al-Faisal bin Abdulaziz Al Saud gave it dimension to humanity and highlighted its constructive and creative horizons. May God have mercy on them – and His Royal Highness Prince Khalid Al-Faisal bin Abdulaziz Al Saud – may God have mercy on them.
His Highness Prince Badr bin Abdul Mohsin – may God have mercy on him – carried the flag of culture through an illustrious career spanning almost 45 years, and despite health-related restrictions, Saudi culture in particular and Gulf and Arab culture in general. He was dedicated to service, never missing an opportunity for a cultural gathering or an artistic gathering, although he was a commanding and distinguished presence.
“Badr bin Abdul Mohsin”, who was kind to his children, left us. Saudi citizen “Badr bin Abdul Mohsin”, who made the people’s love for him his homeland, which excited the entire humanity, passed away. And with his departure, sources for the words of the motherland became scarce. We kept singing his words in love for our motherland. They left us, and their words and feelings began to call them with a voice of pain, sorrow and sadness. Where are you, you astounded your countrymen and the Gulf and Arab people with your extreme humility and simplicity? Where are you, you who have great human qualities? Where are you, you who enjoy a great position in the hearts of the Gulf and Arab people?!
Badr bin Abdul Mohsin, the man who hoped that culture in his homeland would achieve high levels over the past 45 years, has, in fact, had his wish fulfilled and we see the cultural presence, those tall houses that we saw here. In this country or in the global national presence, Saudi modernist poetry has died out, artists told their memories and stories of which they are proud on the night on which the entertainment authority was founded. The pyramid of Nabati poetry left us, the pyramid about which, if the history of Saudi Nabati poetry is to be mentioned, its contribution to its influence and influence on taste and society must be mentioned.
“Badr bin Abdul Mohsin” left us, but “God is the Creator, then glory to my country” remained, “Oh, how delicate is Riyadh,” and “Above the clouds”, the homeland that lies within its great homeland. Lives, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. It is the homeland that has reflected the happiness of those who left us after some time, to establish their affection in the conscience of the Saudi people, an affection that will last for generations: this is one of the cultural features named after the Prince. Is this not the time to name Badr bin Abdul Mohsin bin Abdulaziz Al Saud – may God have mercy on him – to express gratitude for the contributions of a late man active in the Kingdom, God willing? Constructive movements in the last five decades.
“Badr bin Abdul Mohsin” will remain an immortal name in the memory of the people of the country and culture.
