Sheikh Nasser Al-Zahem expressed his confidence in entrusting "Darah" with the documents where they will be well maintained and preserved in a well-groomed environment, to be used as a reference for researchers, scholars and academics, noting that what prompted him to take this initiative was driven by the importance of these documents and the need for them to be saved from extinction by restoring and preserving them from being damaged. By the age factor damage, taking into account that some of these documents are already suffering from worn out. It is noteworthy that Sheikh Abdullah bin Zahem was a Sharia scholar since the founding of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and a close advisor to the founder King Abdulaziz. He was also appointed as head of the judiciary in Riyadh between 1358 AH -1363 AH before assuming the same position in Madinah.
