يمثّل اليوم الوطني للمملكة العربية السعودية رمزية وطنية وحدثاً تاريخياً في وجدان كل مواطن سعودي، لارتباطه بتوحيد وطننا الغالي، ففي هذا اليوم الأغر نحتفي بذكرى التوحيد العظيم الذي أرسى دعائمه الملك عبدالعزيز بن عبدالرحمن آل سعود – طيب الله ثراه – لتصبح المملكة كياناً راسخاً قائماً على اجتماع الكلمة، ووحدة الصف، وائتلاف القلوب على كلمة الحق والخير، فقد استطاع بتوفيق من الله -سبحانه- ثم بما وهبه من صفات قيادية بارزة أن يحمل المسؤولية بعزم صادق، وحزم واثق، مخلصاً لدينه ثم لوطنه وشعبه خلال مسيرة طويلة من الكفاح المتواصل، والجهاد الطويل، والجهود العظيمة التي استمرت قرابة الثلاثين عاماً حتى وحد أرجاء بلاد مترامية الأطراف، وأن يجمع شتاتها في وطن واحد قائم على أسس العقيدة الصحيحة، فأقام دعائمه، وأرسى أركانه، وبنى وحدته على أسس متينة، ومنهج قويم، وقيم وسطية على منهاج القرآن الكريم والسنة النبوية المطهرة.
ففي هذه المناسبة التاريخية نحتفي بعظمة الإنجاز، ونفخر بهمة الأبطال، ونعتز بعزيمة الرجال، التي قادها الملك الشجاع، والقائد العظيم الملك عبد العزيز رحمه الله، حين كتب التاريخ، وصنع المجد، وبنى الحاضر، فبدأ كفاحه وجهاده انطلاقاً من إيمانه الراسخ وحكمته الفذة وعزيمته الصلبة، معتداً بماضي أجداده وآبائه المجيد، حتى قضى على الفوضى والنزاعات، وإقامة نظام أمني متماسك مكّن الناس من العيش في طمأنينة وسلام، ثم وضع أسس بناء الدولة الحديثة، واهتم بتطويرها في مختلف القطاعات، لتبدأ مرحلة التنمية نحو المستقبل، مما مهد الطريق لانطلاقة تنموية شاملة في شتى الميادين، حتى أرسى -رحمه الله- مشروعاً تاريخياً تنموياً متكاملاً للدولة المعاصرة، ورسّخ معاني الوحدة والأمن والتنمية، فتبدلت من حال إلى حال، تأسست فيها العلاقة بين القيادة والشعب على أسس من العدل والمساواة والرحمة، وتعززت فيها النهضة، وتسامت بها الهُوية السعودية.
بعد ذلك واصل أبناؤه الملوك – رحمهم الله – من بعده السير على نهجه المبارك، فاستلهموا مسيرته، وساروا على خطاه، واقتدوا بسيرته، مخلصين للعقيدة، ثابتين على المبادئ، عاملين من أجل رفعة الوطن، فواصلوا مشاريعه الحضارية، وحققوا الإنجازات في مختلف مجالاتها السياسية والاجتماعية والاقتصادية والتنموية، حتى أصبح لوطننا المكانة العالية، والشأن الرفيع، والرمزية الكبرى بين دول العالم بفضل من الله -سبحانه – ثم بفضل حكمة قيادته، وثبات نهجه، ووضوح سياساته، وعدالة مواقفه، وصدق نواياه، المبنية على تحقيق العدل والاستقرار والسلام والرخاء للدول وشعوبها.
أما في هذا العهد الميمون عهد مولاي خادم الحرمين الشريفين الملك سلمان بن عبد العزيز – رعاه الله وأيده- وسمو سيدي ولي عهده الأمين رئيس مجلس الوزراء الأمير محمد بن سلمان -أمده الله بتوفيقه- فهي مرحلة تاريخية عظيمة يشهدها وطننا الغالي، حيث انطلقت ملامح النهضة الكبرى والتحولات التنموية المتسارعة التي شملت مختلف جوانب الحياة الاقتصادية والأمنية والسياسية والاجتماعية والصحية، تقودها الرؤية السعودية العظيمة، وبما يمتاز بها وطننا من المقومات التي نقلته إلى مصاف الدول العالمية المتقدمة، ليصبح أنموذجاً رائداً في التنمية، ورمزاً للاستقرار، ورائداً للتنافسية والاستدامة، واسماً يعول عليه في صناعة القرار، وعاملاً من عوامل الاستقرار في السياسات الإقليمية والدولية، وركيزة أساسية في صناعة السلام والازدهار، ورمزاً للوسطية والسلم والأمن والسلام.
ختاماً:
إن مسيرة قادتنا هي امتداد لمسيرة التوحيد والبناء، ووفاء للنهج، وثبات على المبادئ، وعليه، فإن احتفاءنا بهذه المناسبة العزيزة هو احتفاء بجوانب مشرقة من أمجاد وطننا الغالي، واستذكار لجهود قيادتنا الذي بذلوا أرواحهم وأنفسهم، لحماية وطننا، وصيانة مكتسباته، كما أنه تأكيد لهويتنا الأصيلة، وتعزيز لشخصيتنا السعودية التي تعتز بدينها، وتفخر بوطنها، وتجدد عهدها وولاءها ووفاءها لعهد أجيال التوحيد والبناء والتأسيس التي صنعت -بتوفيق الله- وحدة حقيقية جسدت معاني الولاء والتلاحم بين الشعب وقيادته.
حفظ الله قائد مسيرتنا مولاي خادم الحرمين الشريفين الملك سلمان بن عبدالعزيز، وسمو سيدي ولي العهد الأمين رئيس مجلس الوزراء الأمير محمد بن سلمان وأيدهم ووفقهم لخدمة الوطن والأمة والإنسانية، وأدام على وطننا نعمـة الأمن والأمان والاستقرار والتطور والازدهار.

The National Day of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia represents a national symbol and a historical event in the hearts of every Saudi citizen, as it is linked to the unification of our beloved homeland. On this glorious day, we celebrate the memory of the great unification established by King Abdulaziz bin Abdulrahman Al Saud – may God have mercy on him – which transformed the Kingdom into a solid entity based on unity of word, cohesion of ranks, and the coming together of hearts around the truth and goodness. With the grace of God - Glory be to Him - and the prominent leadership qualities bestowed upon him, he was able to bear the responsibility with sincere determination and confident firmness, devoted first to his religion and then to his homeland and people throughout a long journey of continuous struggle, long jihad, and great efforts that lasted nearly thirty years until he unified the vast regions of the country and gathered its scattered parts into one homeland based on the foundations of the correct creed. He established its pillars, laid its foundations, and built its unity on solid foundations, a sound methodology, and moderate values in accordance with the Holy Quran and the purified Sunnah.
On this historic occasion, we celebrate the greatness of the achievement, take pride in the spirit of the heroes, and cherish the determination of the men, led by the brave king and great leader, King Abdulaziz, may God have mercy on him, when he wrote history, created glory, and built the present. His struggle and jihad began from his firm faith, exceptional wisdom, and strong determination, proud of the glorious past of his ancestors and forefathers, until he eliminated chaos and disputes, establishing a cohesive security system that enabled people to live in tranquility and peace. He then laid the foundations for building the modern state and focused on its development across various sectors, marking the beginning of a developmental phase towards the future, paving the way for a comprehensive developmental launch in various fields, until he established – may God have mercy on him – a historical and comprehensive developmental project for the contemporary state, reinforcing the meanings of unity, security, and development, transforming it from one state to another, establishing the relationship between leadership and the people on the foundations of justice, equality, and mercy, enhancing the renaissance, and elevating the Saudi identity.
After that, his sons, the kings – may God have mercy on them – continued to follow his blessed path, drawing inspiration from his journey, walking in his footsteps, and emulating his conduct, remaining loyal to the creed, steadfast in principles, and working for the elevation of the homeland. They continued his civilizational projects and achieved accomplishments in various political, social, economic, and developmental fields, until our homeland attained a high status, a lofty standing, and great symbolism among the countries of the world, thanks to God - Glory be to Him – and then to the wisdom of its leadership, the steadfastness of its approach, the clarity of its policies, the fairness of its positions, and the sincerity of its intentions, all based on achieving justice, stability, peace, and prosperity for nations and their peoples.
As for this blessed era, the era of my master, the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Salman bin Abdulaziz – may God protect and support him – and my noble master, the Crown Prince, the Prime Minister, Prince Mohammed bin Salman - may God grant him success - it is a great historical phase witnessed by our beloved homeland, where the features of a great renaissance and rapid developmental transformations have emerged, encompassing various aspects of economic, security, political, social, and health life, led by the great Saudi vision, and characterized by the components that have elevated our homeland to the ranks of advanced global countries, making it a pioneering model in development, a symbol of stability, a leader in competitiveness and sustainability, a name relied upon in decision-making, a factor of stability in regional and international policies, a fundamental pillar in the making of peace and prosperity, and a symbol of moderation, peace, and security.
In conclusion:
The journey of our leaders is an extension of the journey of unification and construction, a tribute to the approach, and steadfastness on principles. Therefore, our celebration of this dear occasion is a celebration of the bright aspects of the glories of our beloved homeland, a remembrance of the efforts of our leadership who sacrificed their lives and souls to protect our homeland and preserve its gains. It is also a confirmation of our authentic identity, and an enhancement of our Saudi character that prides itself on its religion, takes pride in its homeland, and renews its covenant, loyalty, and faithfulness to the generations of unification, construction, and establishment that, by the grace of God, created a true unity that embodied the meanings of loyalty and solidarity between the people and their leadership.
May God protect the leader of our journey, my master, the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Salman bin Abdulaziz, and my noble master, the Crown Prince, the Prime Minister, Prince Mohammed bin Salman, and support them in serving the homeland, the nation, and humanity, and may He continue to bestow upon our homeland the blessings of security, safety, stability, development, and prosperity.
