Deputy Governor of Mecca honors soldier Rayan: “Hero” who saved a pilgrim at the Grand Mosque
His Royal Highness Prince Saud bin Mishaal bin Abdulaziz, Deputy Governor of Makkah Region, embodied the highest meanings of appreciation and loyalty to the security men, during his blessed visit to soldier Rayan bin Saeed bin Yahya Al Ahmed, a member of the Special Forces for Hajj and Umrah Security, who is receiving medical care at the Security Forces Hospital in the Holy Capital.
This visit came to check on the health of soldier “Ryan” after he was injured while performing his national and religious duty in the Grand Mosque, where he set the finest examples of sacrifice and selflessness while dealing with the incident of a pilgrim falling, which contributed to protecting the pilgrim and ensuring his safety, in a heroic act that received widespread praise.
Princely praise: "Hero... Hero... Hero"
During the visit, His Royal Highness the Deputy Governor of Makkah praised the exceptional courage displayed by Private Rayan, describing him with direct words of praise, saying, "Hero... Hero... Hero." His Royal Highness emphasized that this heroic act is not surprising from Saudi security personnel who have dedicated themselves to serving their religion, their king, and their country, and to ensuring the comfort of pilgrims and visitors. He noted that these sacrifices reflect a high level of patriotism and a strong sense of responsibility towards those visiting the Holy Mosque.
The humanitarian and security role in the Two Holy Mosques
This incident highlights the pivotal role played by security forces at the Two Holy Mosques. Their role extends beyond simply organizing and managing crowds; it encompasses invaluable humanitarian functions such as assisting the elderly, guiding those who are lost, and providing rapid intervention in emergencies to ensure everyone's safety. Given its leading position in the Islamic world, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia considers serving the Two Holy Mosques and their visitors a top priority, dedicating all its human and technological resources to ensure that the rituals are performed in an atmosphere of tranquility and peace.
Leadership and appreciation of sacrifices
The visit of Prince Saud bin Mishaal underscores the keenness of the wise leadership—may God support them—to stand by their sons in the military and security sectors and to follow up on their health and social conditions. This high appreciation serves as a great moral incentive for all security personnel to exert even greater effort and dedication in the field of honor, protecting the holy sites and the nation's resources.
