"Yes,
I am ‘Abdul-‘Azeez ibn Baaz"

Concerning
the Imaam, the Shaykh - 'Abdul-'Azeez
ibn Baaz (rahima-hullaah),
Saalih ibn Raashid al-Huwaymil narrates
on the authority of one of the trustworthy (people):
“...that
one day, one of the (hajj) pilgrims who came from one of the
Soviet states entered the dwelling of the Shaykh (Ibn Baaz)
in Minaa, and when he saw him he said:
“Are
you Shaykh ‘Abdul-‘Azeez ibn Baaz?”
And
the Shaykh replied in the most humble manner:
“Yes,
I am ‘Abdul-‘Azeez ibn Baaz.”
So
the pilgrim conveyed his salaam to him and embraced him, and
kissed his (fore)head and said:
“By
Allaah, I used to pray that Allaah does not cause me to die
until I see (meet) you”.”
