And among the praises of those who knew him, Sheikh Hamad bin Al-Turabi said, "O Allah, save me by the blessing of the son of Umm Maryam, for he is a servant of Allah, not out of fear of His fire nor out of greed for His paradise." And Sheikh Ahmed bin Al-Turaif Al-Atni said, "If Al-Atni were by deeds, we would be in the island, and none of us would have served Allah as the son of Umm Maryam served Him."
