HH Sheikh Mohammed

Sheikh Mohammed is a poet in classical Arabic as well as the Bedouin (colloquial) Nabati style. He started writing poetry as a young man, using pseudonyms such as 'Saleet' so his poetry would not be associated with the son of the then Ruler of Dubai. He received encouragement from the poet Fatat Al Arab, when she composed a reply to one of his earliest poems.
He is the Vice President and Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates, and ruler of the Emirate of Dubai.
