Thanks for mentioning his age.... However, let's not forget his father was 19 y/o when he got married.

His public appearances have become accustomed to this seems confusing is that sometimes but I think is very sweet. And his voice is sexy.:cool: Unfortunately, it is still not a lot of personal things to know about it.:sad:

Agreed!. I think most of the Al Nahyan boys prefer to be in the private sphere and most of them are so smart and well-educated. It makes us more curious to know more about them. :bang:
Take Sheikh Dr.Hazza bin Sultan Al Nahyan for instance. I really adore this guy. I mean, graduating at one of Britain prestigious universities and to have doctorate title at young age are really something. Something which is very rare for a royalty ;)
I don't know if this video has been posted before. It's the video of his highness' graduation at Bangor University. His English is fantastic. :flowers:
Video
 
Aisha, I'm not sure if you have seen this before. Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan attended Sheikh Khaled's graduation :flowers:
He looks good in suit ;)
Graduation
 
Yes I have seen in this video. Indeed, all educated and are not any scandals. The girls were not included in the media think "seriously" into the Muslim upbringing of their parents as the Al Maktoum family. for example, there is Sh. Maryam is a lot of pictures uploaded to the Internet is completely like a Western girl, but about Al Nahyan girls does not find such a photo.
 
You can see the late Sheikh Ahmed bin Zayed in this graduation video. You can see him in 1:09 standing next to Sheikh Saif. By the table at 1:16 and at various different parts. Allah Ye7rmah.

UAE committed to humanitarian drive

The UAE Foreign Minister also said "the UAE is taking tangible steps to support the efforts of international community to develop peaceful uses of nuclear energy and curb proliferation of weapons of mass destruction."

He reiterated that the UAE government has continued with its efforts to settle its conflict with Iran, which has occupied the three UAE islands since 1971, through dialogue and peaceful approaches based on the principles of international law and charter of OIC.
Dialogue :ohmy:

"The UAE is still hoping Iran will respond to its repetitive calls to commence dialogue or both resort to International Court of Justice," he said.
Shaikh Abdullah stressed that the UAE denounces all forms of terrorism and is against attempts to link it to teachings of all divine religions and cultures of peoples.


{WOW! Abdullah - the UAE have only been accused of horribling terrorist since...March 2001 and now you want to talk about it....Well I guess better later than never?! }:whistling::whistling::whistling:

So Sheikh Sultan is married to his brother's grand-daughter his grand-niece? There must be an age difference....

Also, Prez Khalifa is as well married to a niece...I believe that is his Al Nahya wife.

No. Sheikh Sultan is married to his 2nd cousin or so. She is in her mid/late 40's.

Sheikh Khalifa's wife is not related to the royal family in any way.

Hi Dazzling - we got this information off of Wiki, don't know if it is correct or not. The cousin I was referring to was, the second spouse not the Al Mazouei. Isn't S. Mousour Bin Zayed and another brother S. Tahnoun Bin Zayed married into the Al Mazrouei tribe as well? Or am I mistaken? Just asking, I could be wrong. Thanks. :flowers:

Information from Wiki....
Born 1948 (age 61–62)
Al Ain, Abu Dhabi, Trucial States[1]
Spouse(s) Shamsa bint Suhail Al Mazrouei and Daughter of Tahnoun bin Mohammed Al Nahyan - HE Sheikh Tahnoun bin Mohammed Al Nahyan is a United Arab Emirati politician, ex-chairman of Abu Dhabi state owned oil company and ruler/mayor of Abu Dhabi emirate's eastern region. He is the member of Abu Dhabi royal house, Al Nahyan. Sheikh Tahnoun is the Uncle of Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan His sister HH Sheikha Hessa Bint Mohammed is Sheikh Khalifa's Mother, the current president and Emir (ruler) of Abu Dhabi emirate. Appointed by the late ruler and president of UAE, HH Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, he is the current Ruler's (Emir's) Representative in the Eastern Region, which the region capital is Al Ain.
Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
 
Sheikh Tahnoon bin Mohammed has 2 spouses, Shamma Al Otaiba & Sheikha Shamsa bin Zayed (Sheikh Khalifa's half sister)

Sheikh Khalifas wife is Al Mazroui & he has only one wife.

Sheikh Sultan bin Zayed's second wife is Al-Mazroui but they have no children & to reports they are divorced/seperated now.
Sheikh Falah bin Zayed was also married to Al-Mazroui, 2 children and divorced.

Sheikh Mansour's first wife is Al-Hamad (which are also considered Sheikh's & Sheikha's but with no ruiling power)

Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed's wife is Al-Suwaidi (daughter of the late Sheikh Zayeds advisor)

Sorry if im miss-understanding something here :)

Thanks for answering my question...

Hi Dazzling,

No, you have not misunderstood the question; thanks for answering it. The misunderstanding is with Wikipedia for stating that Sheikh Khalifa had two wives. It's also a surprise to me since history taught me that divorce is a taboo in the Middle East. Now, it is appearing to be very common. I'm concern considering when I give my training one of the things I stress is how "rich in culture" the middle east is. :ermm::ermm::ermm: Hopefully, the unity of marriage would be restored.

Take care and thanks again for the "history lesson" :flowers:
