Over 50 years of panhandling on the streets of Jeddah had taken its
toll on her and residents of the downtown al-Balad district never
suspected that their blind, haggard centenarian neighbor had secretly
amassed a fortune and real estate portfolio that rivaled those of the
city’s millionaires.
Eisha’s life came to an end in the bathroom of her home when the
100-year-old woman, who had spent the majority of her adult life
begging, suddenly died.

Neighbors were saddened to see an ambulance pull up to her home and
carry away her body on a stretcher, but they were left speechless when
they learned that she left behind a fortune estimated at SR3 million,
including four buildings in the same district, and an additional SR1
million in jewels and gold coins (a total of just over $1 million).
Ahmed al-Saeedi grew up with Eisha in the same district since they
were children and spent a considerable amount of time caring for her. He
said Eisha did not have any relatives except her mother and sister,
both of who were beggars, and alleged that the four women were able to
build up a small fortune while scrounging on the streets of Jeddah.
“They used to get a lot of sympathy and assistance from
philanthropists throughout the year, especially during Eid. Eisha
continued to beg after the deaths of her mother and sister.
Saeedi was one of the few people who knew of the wealth Eisha
possessed. When asked if he ever broached the subject with her, Saeedi
said he had tried to convince Eisha to stop begging on several
occasions.
“I asked her to give up this profession as she possessed a huge
amount of wealth but she always refused and said she was preparing for
hard times,” he said.
Eisha had given all of the gold coins she had to Saeedi and told him
to keep them until she decides when the time is right to sell them. That
was 15 years ago when the coins were each worth SR250, but at current
market prices, they are valued at SR1,000 each.
Feeling the magnitude of the responsibility, Saeedi said he reported
the matter to the police and a local court and was informed the matter
will be dealt with according to regulations.
“Until now, neither the police nor the courts have done anything so I
was compelled to hand over the fortune to one of the most respected and
trusted residents of the district, who has promised to give it to the
authorities. All of my neighbors witnessed me handing over the gold and
money Eisha had kept with me for safekeeping,” he said.
