THE MAN WHO DESIGNED THE TWO HOLY MOSQUES THREAD
Al-Masjid-al-Haram
Al-Masjid-Nabavi;

He was an Egyptian engineer and architect who preferred to be away from public limelights, unknown to many:
Dr. Muhammad Kamal Isma’eel
(1908 - 2008) He was the youngest person in the history of Egypt to obtain high school,

the youngest to get enrolled in the first Royal School of Engineering and the youngest to graduate from it, the youngest to be sent to Europe to obtain three doctorate degrees in Islamic Architecture.

He was the first engineer who undertook the planning and implementation of the (Haramain) Makkah and Madinah mosques expansion project.
He refused to receive any payment for his engineering design and architectural supervision, despite efforts by King Fahad and Bin Laden Company.

When he returned a cheaque of millions he told Bakar Bin Ladan:
“Why should I accept money (for my work) at the two sacred mosques, how will I face Allah (on the Day of Judgement?).”

He married at age of 44 years, his wife gave birth to a son, and died.
