Prince Faisal bin Salman praises role of Darah in enhancing Kingdom's cultural values
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 18 - 12 - 2023

RIYADH — Prince Faisal bin Salman, special advisor to Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques and chairman of the Board of Directors of the King Abdulaziz Foundation for Research and Archives (Darah), made an inspection tour of the headquarters of the Darah in Riyadh on Sunday.
Last Tuesday, Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman issued a royal decree appointing Prince Faisal as his special advisor, and chairman of the board of Darah. Prince Faisal made the visit in the presence of Darah's Acting Secretary General Dr. Fahd Al-Sammari and CEO Turki Al-Shuwaier.
During the visit, Prince Faisal bin Salman was briefed on the latest projects and initiatives that the Darah is working on within the policy it has pursued since it was honored by King Salman by chairing the board of directors of the Darah for two and a half decades. Prince Faisal also visited the departments and the memorial hall at the Darah.
Speaking on the occasion, Prince Faisal expressed his gratitude for the generous support that the Darah receives from King Salman and Crown Prince and Prime Minister Mohammed bin Salman. "This support and guidance strengthens the Darah's role in achieving remarkable successes during its past journey, and an honorable future to be a national reference for the history of Arabia, consolidating its culture and preserving its heritage," he said.
Prince Faisal praised the efforts made by the competent and qualified Saudi staff at the Darah, saying that these are instrumental in developing several scientific, cultural and heritage projects. He stressed the importance of developing administrative capabilities and strategic plans to achieve the leadership's aspirations concerned with history, culture and national heritage. This is in addition to enhancing the historical depth of Saudi Arabia as the heart of the Arab and Islamic worlds, the place of revelation of the Holy Qur'an, the land of Islam and peace, and a source of cultural radiation from the Arabian Peninsula to the entire world.
It is noteworthy that the King Abdulaziz Foundation for Research and Archives was established in the year 1391 AH as a cultural institution concerned with serving the history of the Kingdom, its geography, and its intellectual and urban literature in particular, and the Arabian Peninsula, the Arab countries, and Islam in general, in addition to collecting and classifying multiple historical sources related to Saudi Arabia
