Hazza bin Zayed:

“When we look at the personality of Zayed, we find the attributes of the knight, who is characterized by tolerance, self-esteem, fatherhood, transcendence and justice.”

Inspirational concepts

He pointed out that the book seeks to stop before the transformations, and how they formed a moment of illumination and enlightenment, as it was a moment of challenge, and therefore the book focused on the dualism of transformation and advancement that constitutes all the existential, philosophical and developmental visions of the late Sheikh Zayed, as an attempt to understand these visions. He added: “When announcing the selection of the year 2018 (the year of Zayed), it was an inspiring moment for us, so I started with Dr. Khalil Al-Sheikh in collecting the material of the book, and in an interview with His Highness Sheikh Hazaa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, about the book, he directed that the language of the book be graceful and attractive For young people, and during our work on collecting material for three years, the state was launching important initiatives such as (the Year of Tolerance) and the Ministry of Happiness, and we were adding new chapters to the book to follow the major ideas that Sheikh Zayed carried and considered a source of these initiatives.

Bin Tamim stated that the book also asks questions about the late Sheikh Zayed as a poet, pointing out that whoever stops at his hair can reach the aesthetics that formed his consciousness as a poet, and the ancient poets who were influenced by them such as Abu Al-Tayyib Al-Mutanabi, who was inspired by his poetry understanding of man and development and the other, Likewise, Al-Majidi bin Dhaher, who was influenced by Sheikh Zayed, “In general, Sheikh Zayed's poems show that wisdom represents the basic structure of his poems, according to the different purposes that I have covered.”

Challenging and equestrian

The critic and translator, Dr. Khalil Al-Sheikh, explained that he and Dr. Ali bin Tamim were keen when starting to put the book on searching for an introduction to the book, and this key was represented in the theory of challenge and response, which is based on the idea that a person faces a set of challenges during his life, or he has the ability to meet them And turn them into opportunities, or relapse on his heels and surrender. He added: “I bear witness that since I read the biography of Sheikh Zayed, I found that the challenges did not leave him one day, but he often found himself in the eye of the storm, but he was able with his wisdom and leadership to overcome all of this, and build a modern society based on tolerance and coexistence and combining knowledge and authenticity ».

Dr. Sheikh indicated that they search and found that the key to the personality of the late Sheikh Zayed, may God rest his soul, is equestrianism, so there is hardly any of his actions or words from his sayings unless the morals and manners of the equestrian in which the Arabs are known and taken away from them are fulfilled. He said: “When we read the personality of the founding father, we find that we are facing a personality that is not separated by the stations of the great values, but rather lives in it, and what we live in now is sincerity, work, optimism and happiness that has foundations for Zayed, which is realistic optimism that depends on real roots in society and is not utopian without roots.” He also touched on Sheikh Zayed's relationship with the desert, which he experienced since his childhood and knew its dimensions and loved it, but at the same time he hated desertification and worked to resist it with the green color that I love, so he combined the desert dualism that expresses originality on the one hand and green color with all that it means from a stable, living, capable community On building a modern life, she is often sung with this color in his poems.
