Fourth: He contributed effectively to numerous Islamic conferences.

خَامِسًا: اتِّبَاعُهُ أُسْلُوبًا مُتَمَيِّزًا فِي الدَّعْوَةِ إِلَى اللَّهِ بِالْحِكْمَةِ وَالْمَوْعِظَةِ الْحَسَنَةِ، وَتَقْدِيمُهُ مَثَلًا حَيًّا لِمَنْهَجِ السَّلَفِ الصَّالِحِ؛ فِكْرًا وَسُلُوكًا.

Fifth: He employed a distinctive approach to calling others to Allah, using wisdom and gentle instruction, and served as a living example of the righteous predecessors in both thought and conduct.

عَقِبُهُ: لَهُ خَمْسَةٌ مِنَ الْبَنِينَ وَثَلَاثٌ مِنَ الْبَنَاتِ وَبَنُوهُ هُمْ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ وَإِبْرَاهِيمُ، وَعَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ، وَعَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ.

Offspring: He had five sons and three daughters. His sons were Abdullah, Abdul Rahman, Ibrahim, Abdul Aziz, and Abdul Rahim.

وَفَاتُهُ: تُوُفِّيَ - رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ - فِي مَدِينَةِ جُدَّةَ قُبَيْلَ مَغْرِبِ يَوْمِ الْأَرْبِعَاءِ الْخَامِسِ عَشَرَ مِنْ شَهْرِ شَوَّالٍ عَامَ ١٤٢١هـ،

Death: He passed away—may Allah have mercy on him—in Jeddah shortly before sunset on Wednesday, the 15th of Shawwal, 1421 AH.

وَصُلِّيَ عَلَيْهِ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ بَعْدَ صَلَاةِ عَصْرِ يَوْمِ الْخَمِيسِ، ثُمَّ شَيَّعَتْهُ تِلْكَ الْآلَافُ مِنَ الْمُصَلِّينَ وَالْحُشُودِ الْعَظِيمَةِ فِي مَشَاهِدَ مُؤَثِّرَةٍ، وَدُفِنَ فِي مَكَّةَ الْمُكَرَّمَةِ.

His funeral prayer was held at the Sacred Mosque after the Thursday afternoon prayer. Thousands of worshippers and vast crowds escorted him in a deeply moving procession before he was laid to rest in Makkah.

وَبَعْدَ صَلَاةِ الْجُمُعَةِ مِنَ الْيَوْمِ التَّالِي صُلِّيَ عَلَيْهِ صَلَاةُ الْغَائِبِ فِي جَمِيعِ مُدُنِ الْمَمْلَكَةِ الْعَرَبِيَّةِ السُّعُودِيَّةِ.

The absentee funeral prayer was performed for him the following day after Friday prayers in every city across the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

رَحِمَ اللَّهُ شَيْخَنَا رَحْمَةَ الْأَبْرَارِ، وَأَسْكَنَهُ فَسِيحَ جَنَّاتِهِ، وَمَنَّ عَلَيْهِ بِمَغْفِرَتِهِ وَرِضْوَانِهِ، وَجَزَاهُ عَمَّا قَدَّمَ لِلْإِسْلَامِ وَالْمُسْلِمِينَ خَيْرًا.

May Allah grant our Sheikh the mercy of the righteous, admit him to His vast gardens, bless him with His forgiveness and pleasure, and reward him abundantly for his service to Islam and the Muslims.

الْقِسْمُ الْعِلْمِيُّ فِي مُؤَسَّسَةِ الشَّيْخِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ صَالِحِ الْعُثَيْمِينَ الْخَيْرِيَّةِ.
