Salem bin Laden

Salem bin Laden (Arabic: سالم بن لادن) (4 January 1946 – 29 May 1988) was a Saudi Arabian investor and businessman.

During the flight, he accidentally collided with high-voltage electrical power lines adjacent to the Kitty Hawk airfield on the outskirts of Schertz, a suburb of San Antonio, Texas.

Following his death, Salem's body was transported back to Saudi Arabia and accorded the honor of a burial in Medina, one of the most sacred cities in the Islamic world.

A significant memorial event was held at the bin Laden family compound in Jeddah, spanning two days.

Salem, who had secured a billion-dollar contract in the early 1980s for the innovation of the Prophet's Mosque, had effectively managed his father's business and had been instrumental to the family's ongoing success and prosperity.
