Once Upon a Time in Makkah Synopsis

A true 'Renaissance Man', as much at home in matters of faith, business and media as in the world of arts and culture, Sheikh Saleh's remarkable achievements were characterised by a unique combination of energy and goodwill - a moderniser with a solutions-focused approach.

  • Entrepreneurship: a remarkable business leader. Among his achievements:
    • The founding and building of a range of new ventures, from operation and maintenance through to Islamic Banking, media, and urban development.
    • The development of MBC media corporation and ART satellite network
    • Landmark property development ideas such as Le Lac - the central water reservoir of Tunis
  • Faith: a powerful proponent of true and moderate Islam. Sheikh Saleh launched the Islamic television channel Iqraa and created Al Baraka International Bank. He remains widely known to this day as one of the pioneers of the Islamic economy.
  • Arabia: a life that mirrors the astonishing rags to riches story of Saudi Arabia's development
  • Vision: instigator of a host of philanthropic projects to improve education and social mobility.
