Yasser Talal Al Zahrani - Recent Letter To His Father

Recent Letter To His Father

The New York Times reported that Al Zahrani's father, Talal Abdallah al-Zahrani, recently received a letter from his son where he seemed to be in good spirits. He said: "Nothing suggested that he would commit suicide, nothing,"

Al Zahrani disputed the US report that his son was non-compliant, saying his son had spent his time memorizing the Koran, and had been behaving. Al Zahrani said that the reason his son had been in the area of Afghanistan was that he had been working for Islamic charities.

Famous quotes containing the words letter and/or father:

    ‘Tis the curse of service,
    Preferment goes by letter and affection,
    And not by old gradation, where each second
    Stood heir to th’ first.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    What shall he have that killed the deer?
    His leather skin and horns to wear.
    Then sing him home.
    Take thou no scorn to wear the horn,
    It was a crest ere thou wast born;
    Thy father’s father wore it,
    And thy father bore it.
    The horn, the horn, the lusty horn
    Is not a thing to laugh to scorn.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
