O Muslims and Muslims:
Ramadan has entered this year, and we are living in this extremely circumstantial impact on all humankind, the difficult and sensitive stage of world history, from the outbreak of the Corona Virus pandemic, despite the measures taken by humanitarian organizations and countries of the world to prevent its spread.
Just as we are honored with the great honor and dignity that God has bestowed upon us, among the nations, when we specialize in the service of his great house, and the Holy Prophet’s Mosque, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, a service that we honor and fulfill its right, by honoring and benefiting the guests of the Rahman, from pilgrims, pilgrims and visitors, and ensuring their comfort. And taking great care of their safety and security, and providing them with the best services, praying to the great Mawla, his ability to help us to continue what God has honored us in serving his guests, caring for them and caring for them, as we are honored by all of this, we are proud of the measures taken by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Precaution to limit the spread of the Corona pandemic New, and I was keen to provide everything that would serve the citizen and the resident, to preserve the safety and health of the human being in this precious land, and to contribute to limiting the economic damage to this pandemic, whether it was done from local measures, or by supporting the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to international organizations in all that Serves humanity.

Allow me to speak in your name, calling and thanking all my sons and daughters stationed in borders and gaps, health practitioners, employees of the military and security sectors, and all workers in the state sectors, and volunteers for the good and health of man, who arrive day and night to ward off all dangers from our people and our country, especially the dangers This epidemic, for all of them I say, may God bless your efforts and crown your success, and may God accept from you the most sincere work and dedication in serving your country.
Your great work is the crown of glory to each one of you, our pride in you, and a great worship that grows its wages until the Day of Resurrection. I ask God Almighty in this holy month to deliver you, preserve you, and insist you that he is capable of everything.
My sons and daughters ..

I believe you say that I am agonizing that this great month will come upon us under circumstances where we do not have the opportunity to pray in congregation; Our wise law, which made preserving the souls for the sake of its great purposes, came in the noble hadith: “If you hear the plague of land, do not enter it, and if it falls to the land while you are in it, do not get out of it.”
My Muslim brothers:
Ramadan has great lessons that encourage competition for good things.
May God accept from us and from you fasting and resurrection, longing for us the best of happiness and facilitating for us all the best, and protecting our country and all countries of the world from all evil.
Peace, mercy and blessings of God
