This question was closed as "B)No" on 31 August 2016. There is no indication that Rouhani and King Salman have met and tensions between the two countries remain high.
Although Saudi Arabia and Iran continue to compete for influence in the Middle East, they have common interests in stabilizing oil prices, controlling domestic unrest, and fighting the Islamic State (International Business Times, Financial Times ).
