Ahmed bin Abdul Aziz al Saud


Ahmed bin Abdul Aziz (born 1940) (Arabic: احمد بن عبد العزيز ) is the youngest brother of the what is commonly referred to as the Sudairi Seven or the Al Fahd faction of Saudi Arabia's royal family.

A son of Ibn Saud and Hassa bint Ahmad Al Sudairi, Prince Ahmed has served as the Deputy Minister of Interior of Saudi Arabia since 1975.

In recent years, Ahmed's name has been raised as a consensus candidate for the throne though it is unlikely he ranks better than seventh in the Saudi royal family's line of succession. His aging older brothers, along with their questionable health status makes Ahmed an acceptable option within his generation especially with his commendable performance in managing the logistics of the Kingdom's internal security apparatus - an achievement that has bought kudos from the international community, appeasement from the Ulema, and has been applauded by the general populace.
