وُلدت يوم الأحد في الرابع عشر من جمادى الأولى سنة 1358هـ ، الموافق للسادس من يوليو سنة 1939م ، ووعيت أحداث الدنيا ولم أبلغ بعد الخامسة من عمري . كان ذلك في ربيع سنة 1944م ، حيث كانت الحرب العالمية الثانية قائمة ، والقوات البريطانية وطائراتها الحربية تتجمع في المعسكر البريطاني، وهو تابع لمحطة الطيران في الشارقة .
قررت الولايات المتحدة الأمريكية أن ترسل قواتها إلى كل من اللّد في فلسطين والحبانية في العراق والبحرين والشارقة للتــدريب ، لإرسالها فيما بعد إلى شمال إفريقيا .
I was born on Sunday, 14<SUP>th</SUP> Jumada Al-‘Ulaa, 1358 AH, that is, July the sixth, 1939. Before my fifth birthday, in the spring of 1944 during the Second World War, I had already developed an awareness of world affairs. British forces and their warplanes were at the time stationed at their base next to the Sharjah Aviation station.
The United States military had decided to send its forces to Lydda in Palestine, Habbaniya in Iraq, Bahrain, and Sharjah for training, with the intention of sending them later to North Africa.

The Printed Version
I was born on Sunday, 14 Jumada al-Ula 1358, corresponding to 2 July 1939, and became aware of what was happening in the world around me even before my fifth birthday. In the spring of 1944 the Second World War was still raging; British troops and warplanes were already in the British base attached to the airfield in Sharjah and the United States decided to send its forces to Lydda in Palestine, Habbaniya in Iraq, Bahrain and Sharjah for training, before later deploying them to North Africa.<O</O<O</O
