The Ruling on Saying "His Majesty the King"
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is the phrase "His Majesty the King" permissible?
Answer:
"His Majesty the King," or "Your Eminence the Shaykh," or the like. These are expressions that have come into use, and we are not aware of any basis for them. In any case, they do not reach the level of "Judge of Judges" or "Council of Kings." "Majesty" is used according to the status of the person.
