Engagement of CP Hamdan to Sh. Sheikha bint Saeed bin Thani Al Maktoum: Dec 2008
 

HH Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum: engaged today to Sheikha Sheikha bint Saeed bin Thani Al Maktoum. :wub:

Sheikh Hamdan's mother and Sheikha Sheikha's mother are sisters (Sheikha Hind and Shiekha Hissah) that is maen Hamdan and Sheikha are cousin

Jordan, where did you read that??

^^^ Its on his website

https://www.fazza3.com/vb/f64/

Congrats to both of them!

Also, Jordan or Tee can you translate what is says on the website?

What do we know about S.Sheikha bint Saeid? How old is she? Any photos? And when do they marry? I cannot imagine that they will have a long engagement...

There's nothing yet on the WAM or Gulf News websites about an engagement, nor does a Google search bring up anything.
It may be too early, or the news sites may be waiting for an official announcement.

S.Hamdan's engagement
 

Vis. the link to the forums posted by tee, from my limited Arabic, people seem to be leaving messages of congratulations. "Mabrouk" is the repeated phrase.

Thanks Jordan. Who is her father? Is he a Maktoum or a Nahyan?

I dont know if its true or not. Everyone got their story from that messageboard. It could be a lie. Its not even on the frontpage of hamdan's website.

And as someone said since Wam has not reported it, this could be one of the millions of rumors that, he is engaged. (Some are already saying its not true). I dont speak arabic too. Use google translate.

OK ! .... congratulations :smile::flowers:

:smile: this is translations from his website forum from the "Executive Management":*
im not to sure how credible this is but heres some link:
Translated version of https://www.anhaar.com/ar/news/135/ARTICLE/3263/2008-12-24.html Formal engagement of His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Sheikha Sheikha Bint Saeed Bin Thani Al Maktoum ....

If it is true, then congratulations to S.Hamdan! But I have doubts.

I think its true ...
ÑÓãíÇð ÎØæÈÉ Óãæ ÇáÔíÎ ÍãÏÇä Èä ãÍãÏ Èä ÑÇÔÏ Âá ãßÊæã Úáì ÇáÔíÎÉ ÔíÎÉ ÈäÊ ÓÚíÏ Èä ËÇäí Âá ãßÊæã ....

The Al Thani are the Ruling Family of Qatar.
This should read Sheikh Saeed bin Thani Al Maktoum who is a member of the extended Ruling Family of Dubai.

This is how the translated link correctly reads:
However, there is nothing reported yet on
the WAM website
or Gulf News

It's definitely true, congragulations to both!

Congratulations CP Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum & Sheika bint Saeid.

Have you any pict for Sheika Bint Saeid.

Congratulations to both of them!:flowers: I am really happy to hear that but I couldn't find any official article about the engagement.

Neutral,can you send the link please?

Congratulations to both :D

Congratulations to Sheikh Hamdan and his Bride to be, i know that is a bit early but what can we expect of wedding??

Yes it's true, congratulations to Hamdan and Sheikha. I found this picture on sheikh Rashid's website, she looks cute.

Congratulations to Sheikha Hessa Bint Mohamed too,the eldest daughter of Sheikh Mo and Sheikha Hind, she will marry in 04/01/09 with the
nephew of her mother.:wub::wub:

Her name is Sheikha? Wouldn't that be like a british princess named Princess Princess of Wales?

Given that there´s a number of people named Earl, Lord or even king I think it´s a moot point..;)

Besides, Sheikh/a is mainly used as a title in the gulf, in other places it´s more similar to respectfull adresses like Don or perhaps Sir.
