A three day mourning period is expected to follow the funeral, on Sunday.
Bahrain and Kuwait have both announced a mourning period of their own.
It was just in October that he had been named heir to the throne.
Nayef had led the Saudi side of the war against Al-Qaeda, since 9-11.
His son, Prince Mohammed bin Nayef, will now be the Saudi lead in the war on terror.
Sometime in the next week a new heir is expected to be announced.
