Revolution Leader: We remain steadfast in our clear principled positions & are ready for any upcoming developments
The Revolution Leader, Sayyid Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, affirmed that the Yemeni people are active across all fields and levels, reflected in their massive million-person demonstrations as well as important mobilization activities for general preparedness through training, qualification, and readiness.
He stated in his speech today on the latest developments: “At the military level, we are, Allah willing, ready for all developments,” pointing out that the great and honorable faith-based renaissance is what suits the great Yemeni people—the Yemen of faith, wisdom, and jihad.
He added: “In the Yemen of faith and wisdom, we are moving—both popularly and officially—in all fields, within the framework of our sacred responsibilities, our Qur’anic awareness, and our faith-based affiliation.”
He continued: “We remain steadfast in our clear principled positions that we have repeatedly affirmed in practice, and we are ready for any upcoming developments.”
He also extended his best congratulations and blessings to the Yemeni people, to their dear fighters stationed on the frontlines, to the wider Islamic nation, and to pilgrims of the Holy House of Allah on the occasion of the arrival of the sacred month of Dhu al-Hijjah. He noted that Dhu al-Hijjah is among the blessed seasons for drawing closer to Allah Almighty, multiplying rewards, and achieving spiritual, moral, and educational elevation, and that it contains great and important religious occasions, foremost among them the Hajj pilgrimage.
The Revolution Leader pointed out that the Muslim nation—facing dangers and enduring hardships unlike any other nation on earth—has the greatest need to benefit from this season and its religious occasions. He emphasized that spiritual and moral upliftment and closeness to Allah bear important fruits in divine success and support in human life and actions.
He stressed that the renewed desecration of the Holy Qur’an in the United States comes within the framework of an ongoing hostile Zionist-Jewish campaign against Islam and Muslims, noting that insults to the Qur’an have been repeatedly carried out through actions by Zionist criminals, including burning or desecrating copies of the Qur’an and other abuses.
He said: “It is about to become the case that hearing news of insults to the Qur’an turns into a routine, habitual occurrence for many members of our Islamic nation.”
He pointed out that many members of the nation are affected by a state of conditioning under conditions of stagnation and inertia, and by evasion of responsibility regarding the horrific insults against the most sacred sanctities on earth. He emphasized the importance of the Muslim being cautious about a state of passivity in the face of insults to the Holy Qur’an, and striving to protect his conscience, sense of humanity, morality, and values.
The Revolution Leader stressed the importance of avoiding becoming accustomed to hearing insults against the Holy Qur’an without any reaction, stance, engagement, or emotional response.
He said that when insults to the Qur’an become a routine matter, it is a very dangerous state for a human being, meaning the loss of one’s humanity and feelings. He pointed out that Zionist insults against the Holy Qur’an are part of a systematic effort and a broad program of hostile actions directed against Islam and Muslims.
He explained that “insults to the Qur’an are not merely isolated incidents occurring by coincidence, or random reactions from some individuals, but rather part of an organized program of action. We must understand the reality that insults to the Qur’an are part of a structured program, because some people may view them as individual, random, unorganized, and purposeless acts.”
The Leader indicated that insults to the Qur’an reveal the frustration of the Jews and their Zionist allies toward it, and express their hatred of Islam, Muslims, and Islamic sanctities. He clarified that Zionism and all its affiliates see in the Holy Qur’an the greatest force that can protect the Islamic nation and human society from their evil, corruption, and tyranny.
He affirmed that the Zionist Jews recognize the importance of the Holy Qur’an, and that it is what enables the nation—and those who act according to it—to rise to a level capable of frustrating and defeating all their schemes and inflicting defeat upon them. They also recognize the Qur’an’s importance in destroying all forms of misguidance and falsehood used to infiltrate various peoples and countries.
He pointed out that the Zionist Jews understand the importance of the Qur’an in destroying all Zionist misguidance and false means used to penetrate different peoples and countries. He noted that the Holy Qur’an, by the qualities Allah has placed within it, carries the power of truth and the ability to vanquish falsehood. It is the strong rope of God that connects the Ummah to Allah and to His support and assistance.
He stated that the Zionist Jews see the Qur’an as a major threat to them because it exposes them before humanity, reveals their reality to people, and protects societies from their deception and methods of misguidance and corruption. He affirmed that one of the objectives of insulting the Holy Qur’an is that it serves as an important measure by which they assess the level of the emotional and faith-based connection of Muslims to their most sacred sanctity.
He added: “If Muslims reach a state of indifference, lack of concern, and lack of distress regarding insults to the Qur’an, this is an indicator that reveals the great weakness of the nation’s relationship with the Qur’an and the level of reverence for it. This is a dangerous state.” He pointed out that reality shows a major weakness in the relationship of many Muslims with the Qur’an; they do not carry its great sanctity, nor do they feel a strong bond with it and its significance for them in this world and the Hereafter.
The Leader noted that the condition of many Muslims has reached the point of not caring at all about insults to the Holy Qur’an, as if it were an issue of no importance whatsoever. He explained that one of the objectives of insulting the Qur’an is to condition Muslims into submissiveness, to kill the spirit of pride and dignity in them, extinguish the flame of honor in their consciousness, and domesticate them into accepting whatever their enemies do, no matter how far it goes.
He stated that the Jews are keen on this process of conditioning because they understand that the Islamic nation is large and possesses elements of strength which, if restored, would place it in a very different position from its current state of humiliation, weakness, and fragmentation. He pointed out that the enemies understand the moral , material elements of strength , the foundations for the nation’s renaissance, and they are keen to keep the nation away from these elements of strength, stripped of them, and distanced from the factors that lead to power and revival.
He also emphasized that enemies are keen to keep the nation shackled , to normalize a state of humiliation and acceptance of weakness. This is extremely dangerous for Muslims. He pointed out that insulting sacred symbols is an insult directed at Muslims, and it is also part of the enemies’ efforts to separate the nation from the Qur’an and undermine its sanctity in their hearts.
The Sayyid leader explained that one of the major efforts of the enemies—through various activities, policies, and means—is to distance Muslims from the Qur’an. He clarified that this distancing happens by severing their emotional connection to it, their reverence for it, their sense of its sanctity, their spiritual attachment to it, and their guidance through it.
He said: “The enemies are striving to make the الأمة abandon the Qur’an completely and turn away from it entirely, so that it no longer has any value or importance in its reality. They are also working to make the Qur’an largely absent from school curricula and from all educational, cultural, media, and awareness platforms, and to make speaking about the Qur’an or reminding people of it something frowned upon, condemned, and considered strange.”
He stressed that the vast Islamic world and the nation of nearly two billion Muslims, despite their enormous capabilities, do not even take the simplest positions or steps in response to these insults. Meanwhile, there are many practical options that the Islamic nation—its governments, regimes, and peoples—could take, such as economic and political boycotts, which are highly influential and pressuring against enemies.
He added: “The world was affected by the repercussions of the American failure in its aggression against the Islamic Republic on oil markets—so what would happen if the الأمة adopted boycott positions?” He pointed out that there is no will among many members of the nation to take a stand, and this situation is very dangerous for Muslims and is exploited by their enemies.
The Sayyid leader stated that the Zionist Jews, the Zionist movement, and the leaders of disbelief—America and Israel—are the worst enemies, the most spiteful, and the most covetous toward this nation. He noted that it is natural for enemies to covet the nation when they see it at such a level of irresponsibility toward its most sacred values, and when it abandons its greatest sources of strength, it becomes exposed to divine punishment.
He said: “It is important for those who still have conscience and a sense of Islamic belonging to act and express their stance, and to confront the enemies within the framework of their comprehensive hostile campaign against Islam and Muslims.” He pointed out that repeated insults to the Holy Qur’an come as part of a comprehensive assault across all fields targeting Muslims as a nation.
He affirmed that “the repeated insults to the Qur’an are not merely isolated random incidents expressing individual emotional outbursts due to personal reasons, but rather part of a comprehensive hostile campaign targeting us as a Muslim nation. It is important for us as Muslims to have a correct understanding of what the enemies are doing, their backgrounds, their positions, their objectives, and what they are striving for.”
Sayyid Abdul-Malik Badr al-Din al-Houthi stated that allowing insults under police protection in some Western countries and the United States under the pretext of “freedom of expression” is a ridiculous justification, affirming that crimes that insult the Holy Qur’an are not freedom of expression.
He continued: “In the West, freedom of expression is completely revoked when it comes to expressing solidarity with the oppressed Palestinian people. As soon as calls are made to stop the Zionist crimes against Palestinians, US and European police resort to all forms of repression, abuse, arrests, and various arbitrary measures.”
He questioned: “What freedom of expression is the West talking about when they do not even allow a limited level of legitimate solidarity with the oppressed Palestinian people?” pointing out that there is a comprehensive campaign against Islam, one of its aspects being the insults directed at Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him and his family.
He affirmed that the dear Yemeni people are among the foremost nations in declaring the correct stance toward the hostile campaign against the Islamic nation and its sacred values, explaining that there is a comprehensive attack on Islam, one of its manifestations being the insults directed at Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him and his family.
He said: “The positions of our people are clear, expressed through mass millions-strong demonstrations, large gatherings, cultural activities, boycotting American and Israeli goods, and mobilization for jihad through Qur’anic education. We are in a clear and open state of hostility toward Zionism and its two arms, America and Israel, and this should be the stance of every Muslim.”
The Sayyid leader stressed the importance of sustained action without fatigue or boredom, because the issue is not about momentary reactions, but about ongoing courses of action that build the nation to be capable of confronting its enemies in all fields and with full attention.
He added: “Our movement in confronting the enemies, their corruption, crimes, and misguidance is an act of closeness to Allah Almighty and part of striving in His path. It should include caring for the Qur’an in terms of following it, adhering to it, acting upon it, and firmly establishing its glorification.” He pointed out that caring for and acting upon the Qur’an is a path to confronting the objectives of enemies through their repeated insults against it.
He explained that the aggressive Zionist Jewish approach toward Al-Aqsa Mosque is an ongoing path within a systematic plan being carried out by the Jews, adding: “We now see a huge difference between how things were years ago and how they are today, as incursions into Al-Aqsa Mosque have become almost daily and hearing about them has become normal news.”
He stated that news of incursions into Al-Aqsa Mosque no longer provokes a reaction, a stance, or strong feelings of anger, and this is extremely dangerous. He clarified that if a nation reaches the point of trivializing its holy sites, it becomes a weak nation that accepts humiliation, insult, enslavement, and oppression from its enemies.
He continued: “If a nation loses its sense of human dignity, it loses its faith-based honor, loses its feelings of pride, and reaches a state where all forms of humiliation become normal to it. This is a dangerous condition.” He affirmed that the Zionist enemy seeks, in the end, to achieve its goal of destroying Al-Aqsa Mosque and building the alleged temple.
The revolution leader stressed the importance of constantly reminding people of the seriousness of what is happening to Al-Aqsa Mosque, and ensuring this remains present in all activities aimed at awakening the nation to fulfill its responsibilities. He pointed out that the Zionist enemy continues all forms of violations and assaults against the Palestinian people in the West Bank.
He stated that the daily life of Palestinians in the West Bank is one of oppression, humiliation, persecution, assault, and abuse in extremely vile ways that reflect Jewish hatred. He noted land confiscation, the establishment of settlement outposts on them, and the seizure of vast areas in the West Bank on an unprecedented level, pointing out that forced displacement is an ongoing process at a dangerous pace, which will later reveal the extent of what the Zionist Jews have achieved amid the nation’s negligence and indifference.
He mentioned that there is no regard for any agreements made by the Palestinian Authority with the Israeli enemy, while the Palestinian Authority is preoccupied with security coordination and cooperation with the Israeli enemy.
He explained that killings in Gaza have become daily and increasingly intense, with hundreds of martyrs, and that this is a very major crime. He said that the killing of hundreds of Palestinians should not become normal news for the Islamic nation, noting that when the Israeli enemy commits daily killings and bloodshed without concern from the nation, this is a dangerous situation that should not be accepted.
He indicated that the Israeli enemy is committing killings against security and police forces in Gaza and is trying to create a state of chaos in the Gaza Strip. It is also targeting the civilian administrative apparatus that provides the simplest community services under the severe blockade, affirming that the enemy is attempting to destroy all foundations of life in the Gaza Strip.
He pointed out that the Israeli enemy continues to torture the Palestinian people in Gaza through the blockade, noting that only a very small percentage of food, medicine, and humanitarian supplies enter Gaza, which is absolutely insufficient for basic needs.
He stated that the enemy continues destroying and demolishing what remains of houses and buildings instead of rebuilding them as per agreements, affirming that the Palestinian people are living in a very tragic situation in Gaza as a result of the blockade and difficult conditions.
He said: “In contrast to the tragedy of the Palestinian people in Gaza, where is the Arab and Islamic stance, and where is the position of the guarantors of the agreement?” He pointed out that the entry of humanitarian aid into Gaza is a humanitarian entitlement that the Palestinian people must receive under all circumstances.
He explained that instead of standing with the suffering of Palestinians, pressure and blame are directed at the resistance, even by some Arab regimes, in order to force it to accept disarmament. He stressed that very few Palestinians possess weapons, yet they are in greatest need of all types of arms and have the rightful legitimacy to possess them.
He noted that it is the duty of the Islamic nation to supply the Palestinian people with all types of weapons so they can defend themselves, their freedom, dignity, and honor. It is also the duty of the nation to support Palestinians with all types of weapons, not for Arab and Islamic regimes to pressure them to surrender the limited weapons they have, enabling the enemy to establish full control without obstacles.
He added: “It is very unfortunate that the interests of some Arab and Islamic regimes are directed in a way that serves the American and Israeli enemy, whether in Palestine or the region in general.”
He stated that the United States considers the Israeli entity a key partner and always calculates in favor of its interests and empowerment in the region. He pointed out that when many regimes align themselves with American dictates, they are working to remove any obstacles that would prevent the Israeli enemy from achieving full control over Palestine and the entire region.
The Revolution Leader reiterated that Palestine is the forward frontline for the entire Islamic nation, and if the Israeli enemy were to overcome it, it would be able to achieve certain gains in Egypt, Jordan, and Syria. He affirmed that without the presence of the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon, the Israeli enemy would have been able to achieve significant advances at the regional level.
He pointed out that it is regrettable that priorities have been redirected to serve the American and Israeli agendas through pressure and organized media campaigns aimed at distorting the image of the Mujahideen in Palestine. It is also unfortunate that pressure is being exerted on the Mujahideen in Palestine to the extent that they feel alienation and great suffering even from their own nation—its regimes, governments, and the abandonment of its peoples.
He stated that Hezbollah, through confronting the Zionist aggression, is fulfilling its legitimate duty in every respect, affirming that targeting the people of southern Lebanon is a targeting of all Lebanon and a violation of the country’s sovereignty as a whole.
The Leader clarified that some within the Lebanese authorities, and those with deviant orientations, direct blame , responsibility toward Hezbollah and attempt to stab it in the back. He noted that the positions of some Lebanese officials are foolish political stances that serve the enemy and deny clear facts.
He stressed that the Israeli enemy is the aggressor against Lebanon and continues its aggression and violations of all agreements, having not adhered to any deal. He pointed out that the ongoing heroic and significant operations by Hezbollah are effective, influential, and exerting pressure.
He explained that Hezbollah is confronting the Israeli aggression against Lebanon with high effectiveness and is inflicting losses on the Israeli enemy. He stated that the Lebanese authorities should benefit from Hezbollah’s operations to pressure the enemy toward a position that forces a complete cessation of aggression and withdrawal.
He noted that the Lebanese authorities are taking foolish, misguided, false political positions and want the situation to remain as it was during the past 15 months. He affirmed that Hezbollah, which acts from great principles and represents a noble model in the nation, naturally does not accept such deals or false equations.
He said that the peoples of the nation must be aware of many realities, as there is an ongoing campaign of distortion regarding Hezbollah and the Palestinian resistance. He pointed out that some adopt American and Israeli narratives claiming that the problem is always the resistance’s weapons in any country facing occupation.
He explained that Hezbollah’s operations are effective, powerful, and highly important, and that they have restored dignity to the Lebanese people. He stated that the Lebanese authorities should recognize the high effectiveness of Hezbollah’s operations and invest in them properly, rather than relying on illusions promoted by the Americans to mislead the naïve and ignorant.
He added that everyone knows the reality of the groups controlling Syria, which do not adopt hostility toward the Israeli enemy and openly state so. What these groups provide to the enemy has not benefited them; this is a lesson for them and others. He noted that the Israeli enemy has not withdrawn from the areas it occupied in Syria and continues daily violations that undermine Syria’s sovereignty.
He pointed out that the Israeli enemy seeks to tighten its control over southern Syria , continues kidnappings, killings, theft, and all forms of violations.
He emphasized the importance of understanding that what the United States seeks—whether presenting itself as a mediator in Lebanon, Syria, or elsewhere—is to remove obstacles preventing the consolidation of Israeli control. He clarified that the United States is a clear and direct partner of the Israeli enemy in the same objectives related to what they call the establishment of a “Greater Israel.”
He further affirmed that the establishment of “Greater Israel” is a shared, explicit, and declared goal between the Americans and Israelis. He noted that the so-called “change of the Middle East” is also a joint objective between them.
He said that this week the Israeli army conducted maneuvers simulating a surprise attack on Egypt and Jordan, indicating clear , explicit intentions and orientations toward these countries.
He pointed out that everyone understands what the “Israeli map” means, as it includes all of the Levant and large parts of Egypt. He affirmed that the United States does not honor its commitments and has therefore moved to impose a blockade on Iranian ports, affecting even the global economy, without regard for consequences.
He added that what matters most to Trump is serving Israel above all else, even before the United States itself, and there are indications of American preparations for escalation after the failure of the previous round. He expressed regret that American arrangements for the coming escalation rely on exploiting certain Arab countries.
He explained that some Arab regimes have not learned from the lessons of the previous round and the consequences of hosting American bases that attack Iran, and that these regimes are increasingly burdened financially to protect American bases and the Israeli enemy.
He pointed out that some Gulf regimes have targeted their own populations through arrests and revocation of citizenship, treating long-established families as if they were merely naturalized citizens whose nationality can be stripped away.
He said it is unfortunate that the positions of some Arab regimes politically, media-wise, and intelligence-wise serve the American and Israeli agenda, encouraging chaos in the region and even endangering their own countries.
He reiterated that any new escalation will have serious consequences for the entire region and beyond, even globally.
He added that the peoples of the region must recognize friend from enemy, and that America and Israel are the aggressors seeking to dominate and enslave the nations. Therefore, the correct standard for political positions is Islamic principles. He affirmed that the Zionist plan targets the entire nation, and Arab countries have been among the first to suffer from it.
He stated that the map of “Greater Israel” clearly shows that Arabs are the primary target, so how can some move toward cooperation with a direct enemy? He noted that the slogans raised by the Americans or Israelis are deceptive, such as the “nuclear weapons” issue, while they themselves possess such weapons, and the United States was the first to use them in mass destruction.
He said the United States and the Israeli enemy should be stripped of all types of weapons because they are the ones using them to annihilate peoples. He pointed out that Iran is clear in its position that it does not seek nuclear weapons, and that everyone should understand this is merely a pretext, as enemies can produce many false pretexts to target the region.
He affirmed that the Zionists will not stop targeting the peoples of the region as long as the opportunity exists and as long as they find cooperation and encouragement from within the region itself. He added that the enemies can easily promote other misleading narratives alongside their true declared goal of “changing the Middle East” and “establishing Greater Israel.”
He noted that the enemies set a title and then impose conditions to remove any obstacles to their objectives, and it is absolutely wrong to comply with such dictates. It is important for the peoples of the region to remain aware and insightful regarding the enemies’ plans and their sacred responsibilities, through which they will receive divine support and victory if they act upon them.
He also affirmed that the solution for the nation is not to abandon responsibility or to implement what enemies dictate, but rather to act according to the correct stance guided by Allah, which carries the promise of victory.
