Saud al-Kabir

Saud al-Kabir (meaning "Saud the Elder" or "Saud the Great") is a title used in Saudi history to refer to one of two figures:

Saud bin Abdul Aziz bin Muhammad al Saud (d. 1814) - the third imam of the First Saudi State
Saud ibn Abd al-Aziz ibn Saud - a first cousin of Saudi Arabia's founder, King Abdul Aziz. His descendants form what is known as the Saud al-Kabir branch of the House of Saud.
