Hussa bint Ahmed Al Sudairi (Arabic: حصة بنت أحمد السديري; 1900–1969) was one of the wives of King Abdulaziz of Saudi Arabia, with whom she had seven sons and four daughters. Her sons included two future Saudi kings, Fahd and Salman, as well as Sultan bin Abdulaziz and Nayef bin Abdulaziz, who both later served as crown prince, both dying in that position.[1][2] Her sons with Abdulaziz are commonly known as the Sudairi Seven.
