Biography of Yahya Bin Abdul Aziz Al-Yahya

Yahya Bin Abdul Aziz Al-Yahya

Sheikh Yahya Bin Abdul Aziz Al Yahya has devoted his entire life to the Islamic religion, to Allah’s words, and to the memorization of Sunnah of the prophet PBUH. He consecrated all his efforts through the organization of religious meetings, gatherings and events in the two holy places.

Sheikh Yahya Bin Abdul Aziz Bin Ali Al Yahya, who is known for Abi Abdulrahman, was born in the month of Rajab in 1380 Hijr in the city of Buraidah from the province of Al Qassim. He received his primary education in the village of Awtal, then in the school of Riwaq, and he studied his secondary years in the school of Salah Eddine Al Ayoubi, before moving to the high school of “Buraidah” to finish off his high school degree.

Sheikh Yahya spent the first years of his studies, and even after joining the University in the scientific studies, as he specialized in Physics. He said “Joining this class was some kind of challenge for me, to prove my merit for a teacher who often disrespected us and said we won’t make it, I remember when he said that we are not smart and we don’t have the adequate level to study in the scientific fields, which created a want for revenge and a sense towards saving my dignity and a determination to master this subject, and I made it by obtaining my baccalaureate degree in physics and education.

After receiving the degree and getting the objective he wanted, Sheikh Yahya Bin Abdul Aziz decided to change his course of study, as he joined the Faculty of Osoul Eddine, at the University of the Imam Muhammad Bin Saud, in order to study the Shari’a sciences, and he obtained his bachelor degree in 1407 Hijr in Osoul Eddine, and he also attended numerous study groups in the mosques in order to deepen his knowledge concerning that field, and it was there where he met some scholars, including Sheikh Muhammad Bin Saleh Al Uthaymeen, Sheikh Saleh Al Khuraisi and Sheikh Abdullah Al Dawish, and they influenced greatly his career and his life.

By obtaining his two degrees, in both the scientific and religious fields, Sheikh Yahya decided to complete his educational path and to make a start in the professional domain, as he started organizing studying meetings and events in order to help people memorize the holy Quran and to make it closer to them. The beginning was from the mosque Al Sunaidi in Al Salam neighborhood in Buraidah in 1408 Hijr, then to the mosque of the king Fahd. However this activity stopped for three years old before coming back to it and this time it was in the mosque of Hassan Bin Thabit.

In order to expand the circle of participations in those seminars and meetings, Sheikh Yahya decided to organize an intensive summer course in Mecca, and then other seasonal intensive courses. Thus, these courses made for themselves a big place in the arena of teaching the Islamic rules, and helping people memorize the holy Quran.
