August 1924 in Riad; † 23. Januar 2015 ebenda) war ein saudi-arabischer Politiker und Regent. Vom 1. August 2005 bis zu seinem Tod war er absolutistischer König und Premierminister Saudi-Arabiens. Dadurch war er ebenfalls der Oberbefehlshaber des saudischen Militärs. Bereits seit November 1995 hatte er als Kronprinz faktisch die Staatsgeschäfte geführt, nachdem sein Halbbruder, der damalige König Fahd ibn Abd al-Aziz, einen Schlaganfall erlitten hatte.

Abdullah war der 15. von 37 Söhnen des Staatsgründers König Abd al-Aziz ibn Saud in der offiziellen Geburtsfolge. Zwei seiner potenziellen Thronnachfolger, Kronprinz Sultan ibn Abd al-Aziz und Kronprinz Naif ibn Abd al-Aziz, starben vorzeitig.

Sheikha Al Anoud bint Dahham Al Fayez (Arabic: العنود بنت دحام الفايز; born 1957) is a Jordanian noblewoman and former Saudi royal. She is the daughter of one of the sheikhs of the Al-Fayez clan from Bani Sakher, Sheikh Daham bin Dardah Al-Bakhit Al-Fayez and his wife Gutnah bint Mithqal Pasha Al-Fayez, daughter of the paramount Sheikh of the Bani Sakher.

She married King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al Saud in 1972 when she was 15 years old and he was about 50 years old. They divorced in 2003 and she has since then lived in London, United Kingdom. The King reportedly soured on her because of their inability to produce a son. She is the mother of four daughters: Jawaher, Hala, Maha, and Sahar Al-Saud. Her daughters were held captive by the Saudi regime, prompting Sheikha Al Anoud to call on the international community to help them. In 2021, her daughter Hala died. Her daughter Maha died six months later.
