Suleiman Al-Rajhi, a renowned philanthropist and one of the wealthiest individuals in Saudi Arabia, has passed away. He was known for his extraordinary generosity and charitable endeavors. Al-Rajhi dedicated a vast date garden in Al-Qassim, Saudi Arabia, to the cause of Allah, with an annual production of 10,000 tons of dates. The income from this garden supports various charitable initiatives, including building mosques worldwide and providing aid to those in need.
Al-Rajhi’s story is inspiring, from humble beginnings to becoming a successful businessman and philanthropist. He never forgot his roots and was particularly grateful to a Palestinian teacher who had once given him 1 riyal as a reward. Al-Rajhi’s gesture of gratitude towards his teacher was remarkable, gifting him a luxurious bungalow and car.
In 2010, Al-Rajhi distributed his wealth among his family members and donated everything he had. His endowment, valued at over 60 billion riyals, is recognized by the Guinness Book of Records as the largest in the world. Al-Rajhi’s legacy of generosity and philanthropy will continue to inspire others.
