MaktabatulBinBaaz's video: Shaykh Saalih Ibn Abdil Azeez Aal ash-Shaykh- Explanation Saved Sect

Shaykh Saalih bin 'Abdil-'Azeez bin Muhammad bin Ibraaheem bin 'Abdil- Lateef bin 'Abdir-Rahmaan bin Hasan bin Muhammad bin 'Abdil-Wahhaab, may Allah have mercy upon all of those who have passed while preserving and protecting Shaykh Saalih. His lineage is traced back to the well known tribe of Banee Tameem. He was one raised in a religious home filled with knowledge and we do not purify anyone above Allah. He was born in the city of Riyaadh in the year 1378 A.H. where he completed his secondary studies, and due to his aspiration for the university studies deservedly he entered into the Islamic University of Muhammad ibn Sa'ud in the College of Usool-ud-Deen in the Department of the Quraan and its Sciences. Upon graduating he worked in the teaching faculty of the Islamic University up until 1416 where he was then appointed as a representative to the Minister of Islamic Affairs of Religious Endowment, Inviting to Islam and Guidance. In the year 1420 A.H. a decree was passed appointing him as the Minister of Islamic Affairs of Religious Endowment, Inviting to Islam and Guidance in addition to supervising several charitable organizations such as Muassasah al- Haramin al-Khaireeyah, Haiatul-Ighaathah al-Islaameeyah al-'Aalameeyah, and an-Nadwah al-'Alaameeyah li-Shabaab al-Islaamee. The Shaykh (hafithahullah) devotes himself to the students of knowledge and provides solutions to their issues based on the understanding of the Major Scholars of the Salafee Da'wah and he has been upon this since his childhood, and he is persistent upon spreading and teaching it in his classes, lectures, and religious counsel that he gives in the various masaajid and in other places. The Shaykh is an avid reader and researcher of the religious rulings of his grandfather his Eminence ash-Shaykh al-'Alaamah Muhammad bin Ibraaheem (rahimahullah) whereas he occupies himself with studying these rulings and understanding their meanings along with studying the knowledge and fiqh based terminologies (found in the text of those rulings) as well as those meanings that are confined to a ruling given at a certain timeframe and locale.
