Moderation inherent value in the Saudi State
Moderation was not transient feature in the history of the Saudi state over the different eras ranging from the first Saudi state and even our time.
It was moderation is derived from the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad - peace be upon him - is guided by the Saudi state, which followed the guidance, says the King Abdulaziz, may God have mercy on him "legal and constitutional systems and the watchwords of the religion of Muhammad peace be upon him" [1].
Reflecting on the biography of the founder King Abdulaziz, may God have mercy on him will find that the moderate one of the main aspects of his unique character, it was clearly demonstrated in his actions and say, including saying God bless him, "We have made God I and my forefathers missionaries and teachers, the Qur'aan and Sunnah, and it was the predecessor good, do not abide by the doctrine without the other, and when we found strong evidence in any of the four schools we go back to him and stick to it "[2] I find in saying that Allah's mercy is a manifestation of moderation, tolerance to the opinion of the latest, but strong evidence is imposes the introduction of opinion, even if not on the doctrine jurisprudence.
I have seen moderately King Abdulaziz may God have mercy on him a lot of historians even foreign ones, that of England (Armstrong) says it "was the son of Saud royal and having prestige in appearance, the justice ruled the desert" [2]
Today, we find that moderation is the approach of the Saudi state and one of its salient features, and perhaps that is clearly evident in our daily dealings different: politically, economically, socially and culturally, which is also to say echoed by our wise leadership from time to time and the other in her speeches with manifestations of moderation and its applications, Fajadm the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al Saud stressed on more than one position on the moderation and the need to abide by in all aspects of our lives and away from extremism and fanaticism, and that saying may God protect him "The motherland and the Saudi people loyal does not accept a substitute for moderation and rejects extremism and intolerance to the extent that refuses tags decomposition "The saving of God in a different position on the need to open a national dialogue among all classes of people and constituents, and only God, a manifestation of moderation, he says," national dialogue entrenchment of a culture of dialogue and the values of moderation, "the opinion may God preserve him that young people have the hopes of large in the dissemination of the concepts of moderation, he said when he met a group of young people: "It is hoped the Muslim youth in the dissemination of the values of moderation and tolerance" and finds may God preserve him that the great danger to such a noble values of moderation lies in the chauvinism and extremism, he says: "The extremism and atonement, it can not grow in fertile ground in a spirit of tolerance, moderation and centrism "
The Saudi leadership has gone to this approach and did not limit him at all, he emphasized also the Crown Prince Sultan bin Abdulaziz Al Saud - may God protect him - when he said: "We must all trust that no life without religion, without religion and the integrity of , a religion of moderation and extremism is not a religion "
And stresses also the Second Deputy Interior Minister Prince Nayef bin Abdulaziz Al Saud - may God protect him - in more than one occasion, including saying: "pillars of political perspectives and deep-rooted Islamic our approach, which was built on moderation"
And continue our leadership of this approach moderate word and deed, in many places and events to Itana His Royal Highness Prince Khalid Al Faisal - may God protect him - Governor of Makkah Region Fair value for moderation Saudi by the HH Rehab King Abdulaziz University has had a resonance and a broad level, the local Arab and international have seen this lecture is a presentation of the scientific historical stages undergone by the moderation in Saudi Arabia. The Prince was able to mastered the speech and presentation that sways the hearts of many university lecturers, and experienced this lecture exhaustive - well - prefer to His Highness the historic move for the adoption of a chair to inculcate a scientific approach to moderation supervised by the Saudi King Abdul Aziz University.
