Upon arrival, Sheikh Abdullah thanked the 170 grooms and their families, wishing them happiness and prosperity. He wished for their hearts to connect and for them to live a joyful and peaceful existence.
The Deputy Ruler of Sharjah and participants were treated to performances by national folklore ensembles that commemorated the event with traditional songs and dances that reflected the UAE's heritage and customs.
Sheikh Abdullah took a group photo with the grooms, who thanked him for his presence and support, and prayed for the UAE's future success and joy under its wise leadership.
The Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan Foundation for Humanitarian Works, in collaboration with the Ministry of Community Development, seeks to alleviate the financial burden on those about to marry by assisting with wedding expenses, fostering stable and joyful families, and providing material and moral support during the early stages of marriage.
The mass wedding appeals to individuals looking to cut wedding costs and encourages young people to avoid overspending on wedding ceremonies. This effort is consistent with the foundation's vision and goals of creating united Emirati families and encouraging societal cohesion.
Sheikh Nahyan bin Mubarak Al Nahyan, Minister of Tolerance and Coexistence, Mohamed Haji Khouri, Director-General of the Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan Foundation for Humanitarian Works, and several members from supporting organisations and the grooms' families accompanied Sheikh Abdullah on his visit.
