Hussein, the eldest son of King Abdallah and Queen Rania, is engaged to a Saudi girl of the same age. Greetings from Mohammed Bin Salman
He adapted them to the ring finger the diamond and sapphire ring, gently holding her hand. She, radiant with her happiness, followed her future husband’s gesture with bated breath, perhaps to dilate that magical moment as much as possible. Prince Hussein of Jordaneldest son of re Abdallah and the queen Rania – in their time the most glamorous couple in the Middle East – they are officially engaged to Rajwa Khaled bin Musaed bin Saif bin Abdulaziz Al Saif.
He is 28 years old and will be the next ruler of the Hashemite kingdom.
She, the same age, daughter of a wealthy Saudi businessman, who grew up between her hometown of Riyadh and New York, where she studied architecture at Syracuse University, will be at his side as the new queen.
I didn’t think it was possible to have so much joy in my heart! Congratulations to my prince Hussein and his beautiful future bride, Rajwa, the mother-in-law wrote, Rania, on her Instagram profile. And again: I can’t wait to welcome my new daughter into the family.
Congratulations also from the Saudi Crown Prince, Mohammed bin Salmanwho called King Abdallah on the phone to wish the couple happiness and all the best.
The future spouses then posed for the usual photos and, curiously, the official image of the engagement – all took place in the palace of her father, in the fiery Riyadh – which turned out to be a mirror image of that of Prince William of England and Kate: dark suit for him, blue chiffon dress for her. A case?
Who knows, sure that this bond does not only speak of the love between two young people from an excellent family. A marriage between Jordan’s heir to the throne and a daughter of Saudi Arabia symbolizes new political ties that will shape the future of a strategic region for the whole world but crossed by infinite tensions and enmities.
Hussein, nephew of the same name of the king who signed peace with Israel – a giant of politics – belongs to the Hashemite dynasty that boasts a link of descent with the Prophet Mohammed and, before being ousted by the Saudis, had the custody of the greatest sacred places of the Islam in Mecca and Medina.
As we can see, the feeling that blossomed between these two young people – symbols of a Middle East that changes at a rapid rate – will be fruitful not only of family alliances and clans (in any case still the founding nucleus of the different nations) but also of projects that will focus on the effective modernization of the Arab reality.
And not only that: if the Agreements of Abraham have opened scenarios that a few years ago seemed impossible to conceive, the rapprochement of two pillars of stability in the region will only facilitate its growth.
