Wadha bint Muhammad Al Orair (Arabic: وضحى بنت محمد آل عريعر‎; died 4 May 1969) was one of the 22 spouses of Abdulaziz, the founder of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. She was from the Bani Khalid tribe[1][2] which ruled the Eastern Arabia for a long time[3][4] and was the most powerful tribe in this region during the late 18th century.[5]

Wahda married Abdulaziz in Kuwait in 1896, and they had five children:[6][7] Prince Turki, King Saud, Prince Khalid, Prince Abdullah and Princess Mounira.[1][8] Of them, Prince Khalid and Prince Abdullah died young.[1]

Wadha's sister, Hussa, first married the Kuwaiti ruler Mubarak Al Sabah and then, following her divorce from Mubarak, she also married Abdulaziz.[9] In her lifetime Wadha witnessed the death of her five children.[1] She died in Riyadh on 4 May 1969, shortly after the death of King Saud in Athens.[1]
