King Charles reads Arabic hadith at banquet for Oman’s Sultan
King Charles III read in Arabic a hadith praising the people of Oman by Prophet Muhammad at a state banquet he hosted for Omani Sultan Haitham bin Tariq at Windsor Castle. The visit is Oman’s first state visit to the United Kingdom in 44 years.
King Charles III delivered part of his speech in Arabic at a state banquet he hosted at Windsor Castle during Omani Sultan Haitham bin Tariq’s three-day state visit. To describe the character of the Omani people, the king recited in Arabic a hadith attributed to Prophet Muhammad meaning: "If you had gone to the people of Oman, they would neither have insulted you nor beaten you."
The hadith, narrated by Abu Barza al-Aslami and recorded in Sahih Muslim, recounts words Prophet Muhammad said to a companion he had sent to an Arab tribe who was insulted and beaten. Footage of the king reciting the hadith attracted widespread attention on social media.
Focus on the Strait of Hormuz
King Charles, who has reportedly been taking Arabic lessons for some time, also quoted Arabic poetry in his speech, praised Oman’s natural beauty and thanked Oman for its "noble efforts" to keep the Strait of Hormuz open. Oman’s first state visit to the United Kingdom in 44 years concludes on October 22.
