Glory be to God and peace and blessings be upon the most honorable prophets and messengers of our Prophet Muhammad and upon his family and companions.

Today is the anniversary of the National Day of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and we recall what the founder of our country and the builder of its renaissance, King Abdulaziz bin Abdulrahman Al Saud - may God have mercy on him - and his righteous sons after him, praising the continuous growth and prosperity of the Kingdom under the leadership of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud - may God protect him - as it honors the service and care of the two Holy Mosques and their visitors.

The security and stability of our country, the development and prosperity it is witnessing, its wealth, capabilities and qualified human resources, and its strategic location qualify it to be in the ranks of nations, and all this requires us to thank God Almighty for His bounty, and invites us to preserve our gains and continue working to achieve more success and achievements. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030, approved by the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, marks the beginning of a new phase of development and hard work to look forward to the future, continue to follow in the footsteps of advanced countries, and achieve the desired growth, while adhering to the constants of our true religion and our lofty values.

On this good anniversary, we cannot fail to salute our heroic men who give their lives in defense of their religion and their homeland, and we pray to God Almighty to have mercy on our martyrs and to grant the injured a speedy recovery.

We pray to God Almighty to have mercy on our martyrs and rest them in his paradise.

We ask God Almighty to perpetuate his blessings on us, to protect our country from all evil and to guide everyone to what is good and righteous.

We ask God Almighty to protect our country from all evil.
