In an atmosphere of sadness and acceptance of God’s will and decree, the Eastern Province was shocked by the news of the passing of the honorable Professor Ahmed bin Sheikh Abdullah bin Abdul Latif Al-Mubarak to the mercy of God Almighty, as he departed from our world leaving behind a fragrant legacy and a good memory in the hearts of his loved ones and acquaintances.
Prayer time and burial place
It has been decided that the funeral prayer for the deceased will be held this afternoon, Tuesday, at Al-Furqan Mosque in Dammam, the mosque that has often witnessed the farewell of many dignitaries and notables of the region, and that his body will be buried in Dammam Cemetery, where mourners and loved ones will come to pay their respects and offer condolences to the family of the deceased.
The Al Mubarak family: A legacy of knowledge and literature
The passing of Professor Ahmed Al-Mubarak marks a turning point in the illustrious history of this distinguished family. The Al-Mubarak family is one of the most prominent scholarly and literary families in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in general, and in Al-Ahsa Governorate and the Eastern Province in particular. For centuries, this family has been known as a "house of knowledge and jurisprudence," having produced numerous scholars, jurists, and writers who enriched the Arabic and Islamic libraries with their works and held positions of authority in the judiciary, issuing religious rulings, and education for many decades.
The deceased belonged to the branch of Sheikh Abdullah bin Abdul Latif Al-Mubarak, a name with weight and social and religious standing, which makes the loss of his son a loss for the entire social community, given the family’s widespread appreciation and respect among the various segments of society in the Eastern Province.
Community reaction and condolences
In a testament to the values of solidarity and loyalty that characterize Saudi society, the social circles in Dammam and Al-Ahsa hastened to offer their condolences, recalling the noble deeds of the family. The Al-Youm newspaper, deeply saddened by this news, extends its sincere condolences and sympathies to the Al Mubarak family, the deceased's brothers and sons, and all who loved him, praying to Almighty God to grant the deceased His abundant mercy, to admit him to Paradise, and to grant his family and loved ones patience and solace. To God we belong, and to Him we shall return.
