The Yemen Cafe family extends its deepest condolences to His Highness Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, the Al Thani family, and the people of the State of Qatar on the passing of His Highness Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, the Father Amir of Qatar.
It was a true honor and privilege to welcome His Highness to Yemen Cafe over the years. His gracious presence and humility will always be remembered by our family and team.
We pray that Allah (SWT) envelops him in His infinite mercy, forgives his shortcomings, grants him the highest ranks of Jannat Al-Firdaws, and blesses his family and the people of Qatar with patience, comfort, and strength during this time.
