Abdul Aziz's Men, the popular Saudi documentary series, returns for its fifth season following its success in the previous four seasons.

Abdul Aziz’s Men, the Saudi people’s favourite documentary series, returns for its fifth season on television following its popularity in the previous four seasons.

This series presented the Arab world with the history of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the founding figures who assisted King Abdul Aziz in establishing and unifying the Kingdom, and the political insider trading of that bygone age.

The Return of “Abdul Aziz’s Men” Cast

Actors from the series “Rijal Abdul Aziz” return, although playing various roles, and several actors play multiple roles this season. To be more precise, filming and production are now underway for the fifth season of the television series “Abdul Aziz’s Men.” Al-Murabba and Egypt are among the locations in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia where the series is being filmed.

Actor Hani Al-Nazer emphasised the value of the documentary series “Abdulaziz’s Men” in teaching the younger generation about their kingdom’s history and even educating the older generation about previously unknown facts about that era. He returned for the fifth season after taking part in the first, but this time he did so with two distinct characters who helped bring the kingdom together rather than just one.

They include Sheikh Abdul Wahhab Al-Baytar, who helped the Saudi Arabian Institute graduate its inaugural class, and King Abdulaziz appointed him to oversee its establishment. The second character is King Abdulaziz’s envoy to Yemen and Lebanon, Mohammed Al-Obeikan, whom the king assigned him the responsibility of motivating Saudi pupils studying there and comparing them to a fertile tree that will yield fruit in the kingdom.

Actor Mohi Al-Qahtani, who portrays three personalities in the documentary’s fifth season, found the work challenging. He plays Prince Fahd Al-Aqili, Saleh bin Saad, and Engineer Muhannad. Actor Mohi Al-Qahtani revealed in the specifics of his portrayal of Prince Fahd, the prince of Al-Muznib at the time, that he read a lot of tales and did research on him before realising that he was an admired person with ties to the populace.

Captivating the Saudi and Arab Audience

The massive size of the “Abdul Aziz’s Men” television series was noteworthy since historical structures and decorations frequently went up to suit the era. In the event that the remaining heritage locations that saw King Abdul Aziz’s reign were not available, the historical sequences took place in Egypt.

The television series “Abdul Aziz’s Men” competed with the biggest motion picture productions in terms of quality and technology, while being a television programme. Abdul Aziz's Men, the popular Saudi documentary series, returns for its fifth season following its success in the previous four seasons.

As the director of photography, Mohammed Osama Rashid, noted that most people do not enjoy watching traditional historical works, many interesting scenes and lively decorations capable of capturing the attention of the Saudi and Arab viewer were added, and the entire cast was Saudi and fluent in the Saudi dialect because the characters in the series carry significant political and social weight. This ensured that the continued success of the Abdul Aziz Men programme was not in vain.

King Abdulaziz and his sixty-man army left Kuwait on January 2, 1902, for Riyadh to overrun the ruler’s headquarters, Masmak Palace. King Abdulaziz declared the start of the nation’s unification phase after retaking Riyadh and laying the first brick for the state’s construction.

The retake of Riyadh marked the turning point in Abdulaziz’s life. For more than thirty-two years, he served on several fronts till a royal order went into effect on September 19, 1932, bringing all the modern Saudi states under the name of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The establishment of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia came to light on Thursday, September 23, 1932, by King Abdulaziz.

King Abdulaziz Al Saud’s Visionary Leadership

The sixty men included ten members of the Al Saud family: Abdullah bin Saud bin Farhan Al Saud, Abdulaziz bin Musaed bin Jiluwi Al Saud, Abdulaziz bin Abdullah bin Turki Al Saud, Abdullah bin Saud bin Abdullah Al Saud, Fahd bin Ibrahim bin Mishari Al Saud, Nasser bin Saud bin Farhan Al Saud, and Saud bin Nasser bin Saud bin Farhan Al Saud.

The establishment of the country’s administrative, political, economic, and developmental framework and its transition to a modern stage—including the establishment of the Saudi Arabian Monetary Agency, the Council of Representatives, the Shura Council, the administration of the provinces, the presidency of the judiciary and Sharia courts, several ministries, the Saudi Arabian Monetary Agency, the construction of the railway between Dammam and Riyadh, and other institutions and projects—are among Abdulaziz bin Abdulrahman Al Saud’s primary accomplishments.

He actively participated in planning and growing the Hajj by building roads, establishing health facilities, and encouraging international study, while also forming the General Directorate and expanding the Two Holy Mosques.

Abdulaziz Al Saud’s final administrative and organisational accomplishment was the creation of the Council of Ministers towards the conclusion of his life.

Saudi Arabia, under his rule, was among the first nations to sign the United Nations Charter in 1945, became a member of other international organizations, and contributed to the League of Arab States.

The Arabs refer to King Abdulaziz as Abdul Aziz, while the Western world calls him Ibn Saud.

Western media referred to him as Oliver Cromwellof the desert, Napoleon of the Arabs, Otto von Bismarck, and King Solomon in 1934. After Saudi Arabia’s establishment, he became the Arabian Peninsula’s leader and George Washington of the new country in 1931.
