After completing his initial four-year term in 2023, Al-Dosari was reappointed as an Imam in March 2024.
Beyond his duties at Masjid al-Haram, Al-Dosari has held various positions, including serving as an Imam at the Dakhil Mosque in Riyadh and as the General Secretary of the Prince Sultan Association for the Memorization of the Qur'an.
