"Following this grave loss and painful tragedy,
I extend to Your Highness my most sincere condolences, solidarity and heartfelt feelings of consolation, and through you, to the noble bereaved family, which has been afflicted by the loss of one of the great builders of the brotherly State of Qatar, and an Arab leader recognized for his wisdom and for all he offered to Arab causes, asking Almighty Allah to envelop him in His vast mercy and to inspire in you beautiful patience and solace," the text of the condolence message read.
The President of the Republic added:

May Allah have mercy on Sheikh Hamad, accept him among the righteous and welcome him into His Paradise...
Indeed we belong to Allah, and to Him we shall return."
