Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed, Crown Prince of Dubai, has shared a heartwarming family picture of his newborn son and his father, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid, Vice President and Ruler of Dubai.

Sheikh Mohammed is seen cradling his grandson, Sheikh Mohammed bin Hamdan, in his arms in an endearing image shared on social media.

Sheikh Hamdan is shown watching on in the background of the snapshot of three generations of Dubai's royal family.

The Instagram post received more than 12,000 likes within 20 minutes of being shared on the platform.

Sheikh Hamdan has more than 15 million Instagram followers.

He posted an image of a pair of hands holding two small feet to announce the newest member of his family on February 25.

Underneath was a prayer that read: "Dear God make him bloom well and make him the sight of our eyes and make him a blessing for us."

The newborn is Sheikh Hamdan's third child. He and Sheikha Shaikha bint Saeed, who married in May 2019, had twins on May 20, 2021.

Twins Sheikh Rashid and Sheikha Shaikha have since made various appearances on Sheikh Hamdan's page.

On their first birthday, Sheikh Hamdan shared photos to commemorate the occasion.

On Saturday, Sheikh Hamdan posted a video in which he asked Sheikh Rashid to kiss a painting of President Sheikh Mohamed, to mark the UAE leader's 62nd birthday.

Key findings of Jenkins report
  • Founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, Hassan al Banna, "accepted the political utility of violence"
  • Views of key Muslim Brotherhood ideologue, Sayyid Qutb, have “consistently been understood” as permitting “the use of extreme violence in the pursuit of the perfect Islamic society” and “never been institutionally disowned” by the movement.
  • Muslim Brotherhood at all levels has repeatedly defended Hamas attacks against Israel, including the use of suicide bombers and the killing of civilians.
  • Laying out the report in the House of Commons, David Cameron told MPs: "The main findings of the review support the conclusion that membership of, association with, or influence by the Muslim Brotherhood should be considered as a possible indicator of extremism."

How to wear a kandura

Dos

  • Wear the right fabric for the right season and occasion 
  • Always ask for the dress code if you don’t know
  • Wear a white kandura, white ghutra / shemagh (headwear) and black shoes for work 
  • Wear 100 per cent cotton under the kandura as most fabrics are polyester

Don’ts 

  • Wear hamdania for work, always wear a ghutra and agal 
  • Buy a kandura only based on how it feels; ask questions about the fabric and understand what you are buying
