from two days the late King Fahad of Saudia Arabia passed away and on wednesday there was a big funeral from him ,all leaders around the world came to share the Saudis their grief and Loss. I was really sad despite the fact I am not a big admirer to the Saudi regime ,after all it is a dictator regime yet in the funeral I was really amazed just like the westerns and the non-muslims to find out that the late king of the one of the most richest countries in the world to be buried in unmarked grave ,just hole in the land beside seven other kings include the founder of K.S.A King Abdel -Aziz Al-Souod ,and laid to the earth peacefully in amazing way in the Oud Cemetry 'which I guess not for the royalties
Late King was laid in the Earth just like a beggar from streets , this comes from the truth that All people in front of of God are Equal , and Death doesn't distunguish between a king or beggar, all go back to the same earth we came from , no need for great tombs and graves , the owner is dead after all
It amazed me as an Egyptian not as a muslim ,as Muslim for the first time I feel that Wahbis didn't go beyound the correct teachings as usual ,but as Egyptain I am amazed ,simply because I am from country which believes the death is holy thing that great tombs and graves must be made to comfort the dead ,after all Aren't the pyramids the greates tombs ever!?
And look to our modern ages , in Egypt the graves of Nasser and El-Sadaat!!!
King Fahad 'may God bless his soul ' reminds me with some versus written by great Egyptian Poet Salah Jahin that unfortunately I don't remember now
it says in general look to the cemetry ,this tomb for prince and this tomb for simple poor homeless beggar ,both got the same bad smell !
