Revolution Leader calls for major demonstrations next friday against American-Zionist positions offensive to Holy Qur’an
The Revolution Leader , Sayyed Abdul-Malik Badr al-Din al-Houthi, called on the sons of the Yemeni people to hold major demonstrations next Friday as part of a stance expressing faith-based identity against American and Zionist positions offensive to the Holy Qur’an.
In a statement regarding an insult to the Holy Qur’an by an American candidate, the Sayyed Leader said:
“I call upon our dear people to declare their stance toward these insults through broad-based action, starting with universities and schools, as well as diverse activities led by Islamic religious scholars, and culminating in major demonstrations next Friday, within a stance that expresses the faith-based identity of our dear people—Yemen, the land of faith, wisdom, jihad—against the American and Zionist positions offensive to the Holy Qur’an.”
He noted that the Yemeni people’s broad movement in response to repeated insults to the Holy Qur’an affirms Yemen’s steadfastness in its faith-based, jihadi orientation in confronting American-Israeli tyranny targeting the Islamic nation, and also affirms the faith-based stance in support of the Palestinian people and the people’s readiness to confront any conspiracies targeting them by disbelievers and hypocrites.
The Revolution Leader emphasized the necessity of continuing all activities within the framework of general mobilization and sustained efforts to prepare extensively for the next round of confrontation with the enemies of Islam and Muslims.
He pointed out that a criminal American candidate for elections committed the crime of insulting the Holy Qur’an and turned this heinous crime into electoral propaganda, explaining that this grave offense against the most sacred religious sanctities on earth comes within the context of the ongoing Jewish-Zionist war, for which America, Britain, the Zionist enemy, and their loyalists in the West and East—agents of Satan—have mobilized, seeking to mislead, corrupt, and enslave human societies, violate sanctities, and commit the most heinous crimes as a means to tighten control , achieve their goals of plunder, looting, and occupation.
The Sayyed Leader considered the ongoing insults and the soft and hard war waged by Zionism in all its forms and satanic arms—American, British, and Israeli—to be an explicit hostility toward Islam and Muslims, aimed at undermining the status of the Holy Qur’an in the hearts of Muslims and distancing them from it, and an expression of intense Jewish-Zionist hatred and hostility toward Islam and Muslims.
He called on all Muslims—“governments and peoples, masses and elites”—to shoulder their religious and humanitarian responsibility in confronting the tyranny of dark, arrogant, unjust, corrupting, misleading Zionist forces, which are a blatant enemy seeking with extreme criminality and brutality to impose a paradigm of violating blood, honor, land, sanctities, and sacred values upon our Islamic nation, exploiting the weakness of the weak and the allegiance of hypocrites who assist it against the Ummah in many ways.
Below is the text of the statement:
In the Name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate
“Indeed, those who disbelieve in the Reminder when it comes to them—and indeed, it is a mighty Book. Falsehood cannot approach it from before it or from behind it; [it is] a revelation from One Wise and Praiseworthy.” (Fussilat: 41–42)
Allah Almighty has spoken the truth.
The media have published a new American insult against the Holy Qur’an, the Glorious Book of Allah, His blessed light, and the legacy of the prophets and divine scriptures preserved for all worlds.
The crime of insult was committed by a criminal American candidate for elections, who turned his heinous crime into electoral propaganda. This grave offense against the most sacred religious sanctities on earth comes within the context of the ongoing Jewish-Zionist war, mobilized by America, Britain, the Zionist enemy, and their loyalists in the West and East—agents of Satan—seeking to mislead, corrupt, and enslave human societies, violate sanctities, and commit the most heinous crimes as a means to tighten control and achieve their goals of plunder, looting, and occupation:
“Indeed, those who disbelieve among the People of the Book and the polytheists will be in the fire of Hell, abiding therein; those are the worst of creatures.” (Al-Bayyinah: 6)
The hatred of Zionist Jews and their followers exposes their darkness, while fortifying those guided by it and following it from their misguidance and corruption. It is the guarantor of saving human society from their tyranny and enslavement, and the impregnable fortress for those seeking salvation from the great loss in this world and the Hereafter.
The continued insults , the soft and hard war waged by Zionism in all its formations and satanic arms (American, British, and Israeli) constitute explicit hostility toward Islam and Muslims. They aim to diminish the status of the Holy Qur’an in the hearts of Muslims and distance them from it, also express intense Jewish-Zionist hatred and hostility toward Islam and Muslims. What they have done and continue to do in Palestine—criminality and tyranny against the Palestinian people and sanctities—testifies to this, with clear American and British partnership and Western support.
Accordingly, all Muslims—governments and peoples, masses and elites—bear a religious and humanitarian responsibility to confront the tyranny of dark, arrogant, unjust, corrupting, misleading Zionist forces, a blatant enemy seeking with extreme criminality and brutality to impose a paradigm of violating blood, honor, land, sanctities, and sacred values upon our Islamic nation, exploiting the weakness of the weak and the allegiance of hypocrites who assist it against our Ummah in many ways, foremost among them:
• Adopting its false propaganda.
• Seeking to blame and smear every sincere stance against savage Jewish-Zionist tyranny.
• Discouraging the Ummah from serious action in any practical stance that hinders the enemy and confronts its tyranny.
The Zionist enemy continues its attacks on Lebanon, its violations in Syria, and its conspiracies across the entire region, including Yemen. The actions carried out by its regional tools are within the same context. The title announced by the enemies—“Changing the Middle East”—targets our Islamic nation in its religion, worldly affairs, freedom, dignity, identity, and independence, enabling the Israeli enemy to control all its affairs and achieve its catastrophic aggressive goals against this Ummah.
After the world has clearly witnessed for two full years—and continues to witness daily in Palestine—its aggression, criminality, malice, and savagery, including violations of the sanctity of Al-Aqsa Mosque, hypocrites from client regimes and Zionist mouthpieces nonetheless openly adopt its narratives and propaganda, work to implement its conspiracies openly, and tirelessly divert the Ummah’s attention from what it is doing, changing the compass of enmity in its favor, among other services they provide.
Jews and their three Zionist arms (America, Britain, and Israel), and their followers in the unbelieving West, pursue their hostility toward Islam , Muslims with the most brazen , vile levels of hatred, animosity, and criminality. Their practices reflect this, including the American unbeliever’s insult to the Qur’an in a public media stance and as electoral propaganda. Responding to what misguided, unbelieving enemies do—insults, attacks, and a comprehensive war against Islam and Muslims—with silence and inaction, even at the minimum level, is a grave dereliction that reflects bankruptcy in awareness, insight, faith, values, and morals across much of the Ummah, and a severe weakness in Islamic belonging—precisely what enemies covet: an Ummah that has fallen to the depths by abandoning what preserves its identity and its connection to Allah.
The Ummah of two billion Muslims could do much if it possessed the will to pressure its enemies, yet it has done nothing—not politically, economically, or media-wise—at any level. The condition of peoples and elites largely mirrors that of regimes, a very dangerous state that brings Allah’s displeasure and wrath unless the Ummah awakens, returns to Allah, and rises to its great sacred responsibilities. Peoples can act through many concerns and broad activities: strengthening their connection to the Holy Qur’an, activating awareness campaigns toward the enemies, expanding boycotts of American and Israeli goods, intensifying media action expressing the Ummah’s anger , stance, organizing sit-ins, demonstrations, and all available activities. Silence and the absence of a stance reveal a shocking decline in the Ummah’s relationship with its most sacred sanctities and with that which Allah honored it with—the Holy Qur’an.
I therefore call upon our dear people to declare their stance toward these insults through broad-based action starting with universities and schools, diverse activities led by Islamic religious scholars, and culminating—God willing—in major demonstrations next Friday, within a stance expressing the faith-based identity of our dear people—Yemen, the land of faith, wisdom, jihad—against American and Zionist positions offensive to the Holy Qur’an. This affirms our people’s steadfastness in their faith-based, jihadi orientation in confronting American-Israeli tyranny targeting our Islamic nation; affirms our faith-based support for the oppressed Palestinian people; and affirms our people’s readiness to confront any conspiracies targeting them by disbelievers and hypocrites—alongside continuing all activities within general mobilization and sustained preparation for the next round of confrontation with the enemies of Islam and Muslims.
Allah is sufficient for us and He is the best disposer of affairs; sufficient is Allah as a Protector and sufficient is Allah as a Helper.
Peace be upon you, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.
