Your Highness,

I was deeply saddened by the news of the death of former Emir, your grandfather Sheikh Khalifa bin Hamad Al Thani.

On behalf of the people of Azerbaijan and on my own behalf, I extend my deep condolences to you, members of your family, and the people of Qatar on this heavy loss.

May Allah rest his soul in peace!
