Al Wadaei was reportedly born during the late 19th century before the unification of Saudi Arabia.
Saudi Arabia’s oldest man, Nasser bin Radan Al Rashid Al Wadaei, passed away at the age of 142 on January 8 in Riyadh and is said to have performed Haj pilgrimage more than 40 times.
His funeral prayers were reportedly attended by over 7,000 mourners at the Suq Mosque in southern Dhahran Governorate in the Asir Region. He was later buried in his home village of Al Rashid.
