    God asks no man when shocking and unexpected tragedies such as this occurs in a noble family of Dubai who is doing so much for the people and the world. God has His own plans for each one of us, and God knows the best.

    May God give peace and comfort to Shaikh Mohamed in his family at this time of their grief when they have lost a 34 year old young Prince who could have been a strong pillar for the future progress and prosperity of Dubai.

    May God take good care of Dubai and the Ruling Family during this tragic period of their life.
