Kuwait Crown Princess Faces Execution for Having a Bible in Her House

My name is Princess Lujene Al-Saba.
I was 25 years old when everything changed on a quiet morning in Kuwait City.
I had been a devoted Muslim all my life.
Raised inside a royal system that shaped every breath I took.
I never imagined that a single hidden book could put my life in danger.
But that morning, guards stormed into my private residence and discovered a Bible inside my room.
And in Kuwait's royal family, that was enough to end my life.
I was summoned before a royal tribunal, accused of apostasy, and sentenced to elimination unless I burned the Bible myself.
But Jesus had other plans for my life.
I was born into luxury that most people will never see.

Yet even surrounded by riches, I felt a hunger in my soul I could not explain.
And the journey to fill that emptiness is the reason you're hearing my story today.
Contrary to what many believe, not all royal daughters grow up in the main palaces.
Instead, I lived in a private royal estate reserved exclusively for princesses known as the Al-Masila Royal Residence, located in a quiet, heavily guarded area near the outskirts of Kuwait City.
My earliest memories are not of grand public halls or crowded receptions, but of peaceful mornings in a quiet villa surrounded by tall date palms and white stone pathways that only members of the royal family were allowed to walk.
Though the residence was luxurious, it carried a strictness that shaped my life from the moment I could walk
