Could someone translate? Is this post about a wedding?

 

[Puchu]

Male reception of the two weddings on 17 April. Wedding of Zayed bin Saif and Mouza bint Saif. Also of Khalid bin Khalifa and Reem bint Ahmed.

 

[Dobekam]

Would someone please tell me why Hamdan bin Mohammed and Mohammed bin Hamad are always together? Like ALWAYS I’m just curious lol

 

[Jihan]

Geez, sup everybody u're all still here. My interest toward this families came back. Guys do u know who is this sh. Zayed bin Sultan the one who married to sh. Hissa? They have a baby called Wadeema. I forgot a lot about this family tree. By his name is he by chance part of sultan bin Khalifa bin zayed's lines?

He is a grandson of Sheikh Tahnoon bin Mohamed Al Nahyan.
His father is Sheikh Sultan bin Tahnoon Al Nahyan. His mother is Sheikha Wadeema bint Zayed Al Nahyan.

He is a grandson of Sheikh Tahnoon bin Mohamed Al Nahyan.
His father is Sheikh Sultan bin Tahnoon Al Nahyan. His mother is Sheikha Wadeema bint Zayed Al Nahyan.

Thank you so much, i have yet another noisy question then. We know that the UAE is made up of 7 Emirates. I'm wondering, if a crime is committed in one Emirate by a resident of another Emirate, will they be punished in the Emirate where the crime happened, or how does it work? And another stupid one, Why are there only 7 Emirates in the UAE, and is it possible for more Emirates to be added in the future? And omg it's been so long after our discussion, now we know that sh. Khaled is the new crown prince

 

[feiraguy]

So the Crown Prince of Umm Al Quwain is marrying the daughter of Mohamed bin Hamdan bin Hamdan Al Nahyan

This was one of the girls I suspected could marry Zayed bin Mohamed bin Zayed, we can cross her off the list (remember that Saif bin Zayed's daughter was also an option and got married this year)

Now Umm Al Quwain is strengthening its ties with Al Nahyan and Al Maktoum, congratulations to the couple

Mohammed bin Hamdan had 2 unmarried daughters, still its unknown who is marrying Rashid. I think its Aisha, who is the eldest or elder than the youngest Salama.
But Rashid was married previously, do you know if he already has heirs from that marriage?

 

[Puchu]

This Mohammed bin Hamdan is arranging back to back good marriages to strengthen his alliance. Does he held any important position in government?

He does not hold any government position, neither in Abu Dhabi nor in Dubai, but he has good blood connections, and is a businessman with good connections in Dubai, he is one of the closest men to the Emir of Dubai...

From what I can see in Dubai, the most important family is obviously that of the Emir, followed by Ahmed bin Saeed, the other descendants of Mohamed bin Rashid's father and the family of Sheikha Hind; after these, the most important is the family of Mohamed bin Hamdan Al Nahyan, and at family gatherings he sits relatively close to the Emir. In Abu Dhabi, he has connections with the families of Saeed, Nahyan, Falah and Dhiyab bin Zayed and their sisters; the descendants of this new couple will be the grandchildren of one of the sisters of the President of the UAE, and that means a lot.

I have no information about heirs in Umm Al Quwain, perhaps the lack of them is the reason for the new marriage.

He is most probably childless and they can be divorced.

 

[Puchu]

Shakhbout Bin Tahnoun bin Saeed Bin Shakhbout Al Nahyan has got married to Hamda Bint Saeed bin Hamdan Al Nahyan

 

[Puchu]

**Engaged, not married

 

[Serenei]

Congrats to them! Do you know their ages?

Sheikh Khalifa bin Maktoum bin Khalifa bin Saeed Al Maktoum to Sheikha Mahra bint Sultan bin Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan

 

[Serenei]

thank you! I didnt know Sheikh Sultan had a daughter named Mahra.

 

[Puchu]

Congrats to them! Do you know their ages?

Hamda is 22, Shakhbout is around 25/ 26

 

[feiraguy]

thank you! I didnt know Sheikh Sultan had a daughter named Mahra.

Sultan has many sons and daughters outside his marriage to Sheikha bint Saif, there are so many that for me it was never worth cataloging them.

Sheikh Zayed bin Mansour bin Tahnoon Al Nahyan is engaged to a non-Al Nahyan

No news about Zayed bin Mohamed bin Zayed? He turns 30 this year, although his brother Hamdan got married at 33, so we may have to wait a while. Note that even the girls from 2007 are now of legal age, so we need to update the list of suitors we made a few years ago.

Speaking of Hamdan, it's impressive how he has completely overshadowed his older brother Dhiyab. He is present with his father at all events and participates in the most strategic matters, both in government and in his private investments. He has the aura of a favorite son (don't ask me to explain); I see in him the potential to be the "Tahnoun" of his generation, to position himself as a viable option for succession. For those who like politics, he is the most interesting character to follow in the coming years.

Zayed bin Mohamed will make the last politically relevant marriage of his generation, these others are relevant only for genealogy purposes (who actually documents the Al Nahyan) or gossip

For me, Sheikh Zayed bin Hamdan bin Zayed is the favorite nephew or cousin. There's something about him that’s hard to put into words, but his presence, character, and charisma stand out.

 

[feiraguy]

I believe Hamdan is the favorite son, and he seems to be working very closely with Mansour and Abdullah bin Zayed (especially the latter) I believe he will be Minister of Foreign Affairs or National Security Advisor at some point; he will probably be given a position as head of some intermediate agency before that

This video is very interesting, it shows a little of the relationship between father and son
