Speech by Al-Sayyid Abdul Malik Badruddin Al-Houthi on Occasion of the International Quds Day 1444 A.H.
[14/ April/2023]

SANA'A April 14. 2023 (Saba)- The leader of the revolution, Sayyid Abdul-Malik Badr al-Din al-Houthi, called on the Yemeni people to go out today on Friday, on the International Quds Day, to express their faith position in hostility to the Zionists, support the Palestinian people, and affirm the unity of the position with the free people of the nation and the readiness to engage in any decisive battle with the Zionist enemy.
In his speech on Thursday on the occasion of International Quds Day, the leader of the revolution said, "The relationship of the Yemeni people with the free people of the nation, our cooperation and our concerted efforts with them, and even striving to be united to the highest level in this position against the enemies of our nation is something we are proud of and our human, moral, Quran and Islamic duty and an element of strength for us no matter what others talked about it with their noise and every move in this context is with our jihadist spirit and faith and our Islamic Quranic logic with which we draw closer to the Almighty and seek His victory, aid and satisfaction".
He explained, "The Jews are the agents of Satan tending to strip our nation of all elements of power, and they realize our moral importance, and they realize that emptying the nation of its principles and religion makes it not move within a self-project for it." Pointing out that the Jews are seeking to end the state of Islamic hostility towards them, so that the nation will not have any reaction towards their attempt to control it.
He added, "The Jews want our nation to finance their plots, implement them, and pay their costs, as happens in their wars by proxy, and the Jews seek to be the final command of our nation, which draws policies and determines positions."
The leader of the revolution pointed out that the first point in the conflict with the Zionists is the issue of taking over them, which the Holy Qur’an warned against.. He continued, “In contrast to the Jews’ efforts to subjugate us, we seek to fight them in subjugation, taking over, and raising awareness about their danger and mobilizing against them.”
He also stressed that the correct position of the nation is to seek to immunize it from linking with the Jews through continuous mobilization against them... indicating that the Al Khalifa in Bahrain and the Emirati, Moroccan and Saudi regimes have taken practical steps in normalization with the enemy entity despite the Quranic warning.
And he stated that the regimes that were normalized with the enemy entity had reached the point of oppressing their nation and conspiring against their people in return for wooing the Zionists .. And he said, "The nation's choice should not be silence in the face of its enemies, as silence means enabling them to reach their goals, the enemies of the nation seek to lead it astray from the path of its glory strength and dignity, and they move in all fields.”
The leader of the revolution stated that the enemies seek to enable tyrants to control the necks of the nation and flood it with political differences in order to impede it from achieving any Islamic civilization renaissance and to keep it in a state of political crisis.
He pointed out that on the economic level, they transformed the nation into a consumer market for their goods to generate profits for them, and they took the primary resources from it at the lowest prices and brought their goods at the most expensive prices and earned huge money part of which they financed their conspiracies against the nation, instead of us being a productive nation that cultivates and manufactures its basic needs.
He stated that the Jews linked the nation to relying on the dollar to be one of the largest contributors to linking the global economy to the dollar, and this is a great service to the American economic dominance, and they also impede any direction to build the nation economically and for the economic policies to be correct.
He added, "The enemies are working to ensure that education in our countries is useless and has no impact on building a person. In the media, they seek to control public opinion, perceptions, interests, and orientations, and their media activity is clear. In the social field, they seek to dismantle society and transform it into disparate entities, separating women from their being and their families, with the aim of distorting the nation and hindering it from any civilized renaissance".
The leader of the revolution stressed the importance of "recalling the conflict with the enemies in various fields, and realizing that they seek to control and weaken us, every country mired in economic, political and social crises and various problems." Pointing out that the enemies seek to spread moral corruption and break innate and faith barriers and seek to push women to display adornment and fight modesty, and to separate women from their societal entity in order to control them and turn them into an element that corrupts society.
He reaffirmed that America and the Zionist lobby are moving to support and spread the crime of homosexual indecency and seek to normalize it and protect it by law, and this shows the extent of their corruption and their endeavor to corrupt human society and control societies. He indicated that the enemies want to see the youth of the nation devoid of values, destroyed healthily and morally, and without economic productivity.
The leader of the revolution also stressed the importance of "fighting our battle in all fields, and being aware of the efforts of the enemies of the nation to realize the nature of the struggle with them in all fields and to seek to protect ourselves from them."
And he indicated that in the wars waged by the enemies against the nation, they killed people with the most dangerous types of weapons, and when they supervised the wars of their tools, we noticed the brutality and criminality for which they provided the media and political cover... He asked, "Where are the rights of the Palestinian child and woman? Where were the human rights in the invasion of Iraq? Where are they?" Human rights in the face of what the American tools did in our country and the brutal crimes they committed that shame humanity?
He explained that the enemies seek to possess the most dangerous and deadly types of weapons, even nuclear, biological, bacteriological, and all kinds of weapons that kill people collectively, and this expresses their brutality, and they fight against vulnerable peoples who seek to acquire weapons to defend themselves. Pointing to the efforts of the enemies to establish among the nation that it is weak and does not have the capabilities to defend itself, and they want to show that the civilized scene of the nation is to be weak and defenseless, and the arrival of weapons becomes an accusation, as happened with the Yemeni people.
The leader of the revolution also affirmed that the enemies seek to strip the nation of all the factors of economic and political stability, and this is sufficient hostility that cannot be disputed. Pointing out that the Americans and the Zionists are tending to prevent any economic renaissance of the nation that is based on a sound basis, and they are fighting it with policies that are destructive to everything.
He said, "They burn the Qur'an, insult the Messenger of God, may God bless him and his family, kill the sons of the Islamic nation, occupy countries, loot the wealth, and impose military bases for them to humiliate the nation." Noting that "the enemies of the nation also seek to prevent the rule of Islam in our countries, and spawn new religions to spread in our societies."
He reaffirmed that "the correct way to confront the enemies is the Quranic position, which protects the nation from evil, corruption and injustice, and prompts us to confront them according to God's directives, it is the correct, successful and feasible stance. If some people despair or have a surrender complex, it is the result of their lack of awareness, weak faith and lack of understanding of life and reality.
He referred to the inevitable loss in the nation's surrender or loyalty to its enemies. He said, "Whatever the attack is on the nation and the state of confusion in front of this attack, do not despair, given the sincere divine promise to preach the free people of our believing nation that in light of that attack comes salvation and victory."
He said, "We must adhere to the mandate of God and reject the mandate of our enemies because it is an extension of the mandate of Satan, and we must achieve independence on the basis of our Islamic affiliation," stressing the importance of moving in confronting them and jihad in all fields, knowing what they want and confronting them with a jihadist spirit, and moving from a state of stagnation to Standing and working to confront them in every field according to God's instructions.
The leader of the revolution urged that the nation be economically productive and boycott the goods of its enemies and what comes from them, and that education be beneficial and constructive in its impact on the human being, and that the Qur’anic culture be the basis for the culture of the nation .. stressing the importance of continuing to prepare force in all fields, foremost of which is the military force and striving to achieve the renaissance of Islamic civilization .
And he indicated that the path of the Qur’an is the one that guarantees the nation victory in this world and victory in the Hereafter. He said, “We have to benefit from what we see in reality of divine support for the mujahideen in Yemen, Palestine, Lebanon and Iraq, what Iran enjoys of strength and honor.
Mr. Abdul-Malik Badr al-Din al-Houthi affirmed that the inevitable result of the fate of the usurping Zionist entity in Palestine is defeat and demise. He added, "When we move to confront the Zionist entity, let us be reassured that its inevitable consequence is defeat and demise."
He pointed out that what the enemies are trying to portray any resistance movement as collaborating and being influenced by Iran is a slander, slander and distortion of this position, as Iran stands for this position from an ideological and religious standpoint. He said, "We move from a Qur'anic standpoint that brings us together with the free people of our nation who move and their instinct has been surrendered to them and they have no disease in their hearts. The position on the Zionist lobby and America is an instinctive and natural position."

I seek refuge in Allah from Shaytan, the outcast.

In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful.

Praise is to Allah, Lord of the Worlds. I believe that there is no god but Allah, the Sovereign and the Manifest Truth, and that Muhammad, our master, is His servant, Messenger, and Last Prophet.

O Allah, confer Your salat and blessings upon Muhammad and the Family of Muhammad as You conferred Your salat and blessings upon Ibrahim and the Family of Ibrahim. You are Owner of Praise, Owner of Glory! And be pleased with Muhammad's good companions and all Your righteous servants and mujahidin.

O Allah, guide us and grant us acceptance, for You are the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing; accept our repentance, for You are the Relenting and the Merciful.

Brothers and sisters, peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.

Seeking guidance in the blessed verse that says, {'O believers, be mindful of Allah in the way He deserves, and do not die except as Muslims'}[Ali 'Imran 3:102], we spoke yesterday on how Allah (Glory be to Him) commanded us to be mindful of Him in this blessed verse in an extraordinary way that is never seen in all other verses that command us to be mindful of Him.

Many of Allah's commands are usually accompanied by His saying {'Be mindful of Allah'} to emphasize the importance of a particular matter and warn against disobedience in such a matter. The same command, {'Be mindful of Allah,'} sometimes follows some other commands or prohibitions in order to warn against disobedience and the serious consequences and divine punishment that may result from that disobedience.

However, it is only in this particular verse that Allah said, {'in the way He deserves'}, which means one must stick to the greatest degrees of mindfulness of Allah and stay on guard against violating or disobeying what He has commanded in this blessed verse. This verse comes in this context that warns against obeying the people of the Scripture: Allah (Glory be to Him) says, {'O you who have attained faith, if you obey a group of those who were given the Scripture, they would turn you back from belief to disbelief'}[Ali 'Imran 3:100]. Therefore, it firmly warns against obeying them and makes it clear that they seek to make the Ummah submissive and obedient to them, which will certainly lead, as the verse mentioned, to disbelief: {'They would turn you back from belief to disbelief.'} So they seek to keep you away from the principles of this religion, its values, its ethics, its laws, and what Allah has prescribed for you and guided you to.

We have spoken about how this comes in line with their intense enmity towards this Ummah. Therefore, they are heading in the direction that Shaytan headed, because they are his allies and his network that operates in human reality, targeting us in our religion. This is the clearest manifestation of their intense enmity towards us, as they know the role that our religion is a fundamental source of strength for us and that it is a link that connects us with Allah, allowing us to benefit from His care, support, assistance, and victory. So if we lose this link, how can we enjoy Allah's victory, assistance, support, or victory? They recognize the importance of this religion as a major factor in building a strong nation that enjoys protection and dignity and possesses all the means of power if it adheres to it, follows its guidance, and adheres to its principles, values, and ethics. Therefore, they aim to strip us of all the factors of strength. They understand the spiritual significance of this religion and know that if they succeed in emptying us of our principles, values, ethics, culture, and beliefs and making us a hollow ummah that lacks principles, values, and ethics and adheres to the wrong culture, thoughts, and beliefs, we will become a hollow ummah that is ready to accept what comes from them and that cannot protect itself with awareness, understanding, spiritual purification or self-made project. Indeed, we will become a hollow ummah and therefore susceptible to what comes from them and their influence. That is why they focus on this.

In this context, they are working to erase the state of enmity and change our perception of them as enemies, a fact that has been confirmed by the Holy Quran and is clear in reality—that is, they are enemies. They are attempting to make us see them as friends and to accept whatever comes from them, with the aim of facilitating their mission to control us without facing any obstacles: They want to be able to target the Ummah without causing any reaction by the Ummah so not to bear the cost this reaction may lead in terms of human lives, material burdens, etc. This also has to do with making it easier for them to target the Ummah while in a state of submission, stagnation, inaction, vulnerableness before their plots and conspiracies—an empty and hollow ummah that is dormant and lacks alertness and awareness. Such a state makes condition perfect for their schemes and conspiracies to succeed and enables them to work actively in the reality of the Ummah and avoid any cost of human suffering.

In this context, they rely on the method of making the Ummah easier for them to control and gaining its loyalty. And the reason behind this is to make our Ummah accept whatever misguidance, corruption, or conspiracy they advance.

Even more than that, they seek to introduce themselves to the Ummah as an entity that has the right to command and direct the Ummah and determine what kind of policies and positions must be adopted and what kind of orientation the Ummah needs to follow. This is a very serious issue. They want to impose their guardianship on us and push us to accept it until it becomes an acceptable thing among our elites, parties, and governments so they move according to their commands, return to them, and accept from them, without having any problem with seeing them ordering, directing, and even having their ambassador act like a prince who intervenes in all fields and all matters, decides, imposes, criticizes, changes things, and replaces. They want to be in this position for our Ummah: to impose their guardianship on us and to be in the position of the commander, the ruler, and the director who imposes policies, determines positions, changes things, decides, and replaces! It is to this degree they strive to make us submissive to them.

Therefore, Allah firmly warns in the Holy Quran against following and obeying them, and this is the first point and important juncture worthy of attention in the conflict with them: the issue of following and obeying them. The Quran strongly warns against this and makes it clear that the inevitable result of this is apostasy, for they push people, through practical steps, away from their principles, values, and ethics. They know that these are elements of strength, guidance, righteousness, and the basis for building a noble Islamic civilization. Therefore, they work on separating the nation from these elements and offering alternatives through what they push towards.

When Allah (Glory be to Him) said, {'They would turn you back from belief to disbelief,'} He presented this as an inevitable result; also, when He said, {'And if any amongst you takes them as Auliya [guardians], then surely he is one of them,'} He presented this as an inevitable fact that should be taken for granted without discussion or argument. He also made it clear that hastening towards them falls within this context: {'So you see those in whose hearts is a sickness hastening into [association with] them'}[Al-Maidah 5:52].

Therefore, the approach and methodology of the Holy Quran and what it guides to—we emphasized the importance of moving away from approaching things from a personal and inclination-derived perspective that keeps one from being mindful of Allah and pushes him into negligence and trouble to the Quranic perspective—'the Book of Allah, which you are enlightened by.' We also emphasized the importance of returning to what the Holy Quran has guided us to, hold onto it, and move based on it. In the face of their efforts to subdue us and strive to be in the position of directing us, we must stand up to them in this point: to reject to become submissive to them, to take them as guardians, and to accept them giving commands, directing us towards or against something, being in a supervision position over us, taking decisions, and interfering in all aspects of our lives, both small and large. The approach of the Quran and what it has guided us to is to mobilize us against them, raise our awareness of their danger, expose their methods, and guide to how to confront their conspiracies.

Therefore, the first thing worthy of attention is how should our general position and attitude be? Should we adopt the position of acceptance? Should it be the position of obedience and loyalty? Or should it be the position of being silent, submissive, and surrendering, which gives them the opportunity to penetrate into this Ummah and move without any obstacle? Or should it be the correct position that the Holy Quran has guided to, the position of combating their efforts; striving to protect and educate the Ummah and to keep it away from being influenced by them, being associated with them, obeying them, taking them as guardians; and continually mobilizing efforts against them through the Holy Quran and its evidence in reality?

Despite the clear fact that they are implacable enemies who are dangerous, bad, etc., some of those who affiliate to Islam stick to their view that introduces these enemies as friends and seek to deal with them on this basis. They also establish relations and alliances with them under the guise of normalization of ties. To achieve this end, they take bad steps against their peoples, their Ummah, and the Palestinian people. This has been the case with the Al Khalifa regime in Bahrain, the Emirati regime, the Saudi regime, and the Moroccan regime, who have taken practical steps to serve these enemies and to appease them, opening the way for them to influence even their own people. They even seek to influence their own people to accept loyalty to these enemies and view them as friends—this is what they particularly focus on. In doing so, they deny the revelations of Allah, His book, and the undeniable facts on the ground that prove they are extremely wicked enemies.

They have gone so far as to turn their backs to their religion, values, and ethics. They have even practiced injustice against their own Ummah and conspired against their people! As an example, in Bahrain, the Al Khalifa family strips the people of Bahrain (the Muslim people of Bahrain) of their nationality, while granting it to Zionists. In the UAE, they have done something similar and opened the door to serve them. Whether here or there, in Bahrain, in the UAE, or in Morocco, they serve them more than they serve their own people, providing them with facilities that they do not offer to the sons of their Islamic Ummah.

Because of this, they get themselves into a state of Nifaq—since taking these [enemies] as guardians is considered Nifaq in Islam—injustice, and shameful submission to the point of disgrace. In Morocco, there were very shameful atrocities, where Muslim girls were handed over to the Zionists for the crime of indecency and shame. These shameful matters have spread widely. What a shame!

They also seek to redirect the compass of enmity away from the real enemies, but towards whom? Towards those who face them and stand against them from the sons of the Ummah: the free Palestinians, those mujahidin in Palestine. They have been subjected to many defamatory media campaigns, even against the Palestinian people in general. Channels, media outlets, tweets on social media, and many other means including in the press have been used to defame the Palestinian people. Also, Hezbollah in Lebanon and the free people of the Ummah in general have been subjected to incitement campaigns and a hostile language in the media. Persistent efforts are paid to divert the compass of enmity away from the true, main enemy of the Ummah, the one whom Allah (the most knowledgeable about our enemies) has told us about as our enemy, even the most hostile enemy, and then direct it towards those among the sons of the Ummah who stand up against them and confront their conspiracies.

Falling into a state of silence and inaction will do no good for the Ummah, and this state should never be seen as an alternative to what Allah guided to in the Holy Quran, for Allah's guidance is the worthiest of following. Allah (Glory be to Him) said about Himself, {'Allah knows best who your enemies are'}[An-Nisa 4:45]. He knows best them, and He also knows what we must do in confronting their conspiracies, the wise policy, and the right position that can protect the Ummah and keep it out of harm's way. So the state of silence means to enable the enemies to achieve their goals, and any alternatives to what Allah guided to in the Holy Quran will definitely lead to the loss of the Ummah, as well as serious consequences.

Therefore, by returning to the Holy Quran, what Allah has guided to in it, and what He used to reveal their methods, strategies, and tactics that they rely on to target the Ummah, especially their endeavour to gain loyalty and make people easier to control, we must move to fight them starting from this important point through, as we mentioned, mobilization, awareness, arousing the sense of anger within the Ummah, directing the Ummah in all fields based on this, and being vigilant against all of their conspiracies.

When Allah revealed to us that they want to make the Ummah easier for them to control and gain its loyalty—which is for the sake of diverting it from its faith, principles, values, and constructive ethics that build the human being and the great Islamic civilization, which is humanitarian in its nature and not based on demolishing human natural values—Allah explained to us in the Holy Quran in detail how they seek to misguide and corrupt us.

We can now move on to this point: their efforts to mislead the Ummah in every field. After making sure that the Ummah accepts what they present (their visions, policies, ideologies, ideas, cultures, commands, and orientations), they strive to mislead the Ummah and present what they offer of ideas, policies, orientations, decisions, and signals as alternatives to the Holy Quran and what it guides to, even though they are misleading alternatives that confuse and mislead the Ummah, change its reality for the worse, and hinder it from building any remarkable Islamic civilization renaissance.

In fact, they adopted this orientation early. From the very first day, they have been seeking to target Islam, distract people from it, and turn people away from accepting it: Allah said about them, {'They wish to extinguish Allah's light with their mouths'}[ As-Saf 61:8], and He also said, {'They wish to indeed extinguish Allah's light with their mouths'}[At-Tawbah 9:32]. In fact, it is an early orientation that they have been working on since the beginning and through generations, and they are still working on it.

Nothing has changed today except that they now possess means of influence and advanced technology they have never had before. Also, one should not forget means of influence and publication, which reach every country, region, village, town, and most families, not to the mention the openness, chaos, and acceptance among Muslims, especially the elites, who are more likely to show acceptance even with pride!

Allah said about them, {'They buy misguidance and wish that you should go astray from the right path'}[An-Nisa 4:44]—they wish to see you go astray from the right path. So, they work on leading you astray from the path of your honour, dignity, success, safety, own good, might, and strength. Indeed, they desire to lead you astray in all fields and make you to deviate from the path that leads you to your goals, to success, and to prosperity. Unfortunately, this is what really happened.

While they are working in all fields, their misguidance reaches us, as Muslims, in all fields:

However, Allah's guidance and teachings would have provided political stability and, at the same time, a wise system [of administration] that makes life good and prosperous and properly builds life and man and his humanity related to his important innate values.

  • At the economic level, they have turned the Islamic Ummah into a market that consumes their goods, provides them with profits and huge income, and delivers raw materials to them at the lowest prices. Indeed, they take raw materials from our hometowns at the lowest prices, bring their goods with the highest prices, and gain a lot of money and huge profits, part of which they use to finance their conspiracies against us and to target us. All of that is funded from our pockets, by our money, and by what we provide them with, instead of us being a productive ummah that cultivates, manufactures, and produces its basic needs.
In addition, they have introduced usury into our banking dealings and commercial transactions. Furthermore, they have pushed the Ummah into dependence on the dollar so that the Islamic Ummah and Arab and oil countries become among those who contributed most to tying the global economy to the dollar, providing a very great service for the American economy to dominate the Ummah. Moreover, they stand in the way of any efforts that run counter to their orientation and seek to build the Ummah economically, to make it a productive ummah, and to adopt economic policies that is sound, correct, and constructive.

  • At the educational level, they seek to make sure that education in our countries is neither useful nor fruitful, neither in religion, in the world, nor in its impact on human that is supposed to build the human and serve his interest.
  • At the media level, they seek to control the media, influence public opinion, and control attitudes, interests, perceptions, and even impressions and feelings. The pay serious efforts into this direction. Their media activity and influence are evident in the issues that keep dragging great interest; in the issues with which they target the Ummah, scatter the Ummah, disintegrate the Ummah, and target the real causes of the Ummah; and in the state of futility and great loss.
  • At the social level, they seek disintegrating our society and turning it into entities that oppose one another. They always seek to make women a separate group and the youth another separate group and to build political ideologies based on this division. They seek to separate women from their families. By doing so they aim to lead the Ummah astray and to obstruct it from any Islamic civilization renaissance.

This really affects the Ummah to a great extent. Many ideas, policies, and orientations come to reinforce all what we mentioned about their endeavour and to push the Ummah towards it more and more, and this harmed our Ummah a lot.

In this area, we must realize that they are enemies, that we are in conflict with them in all these areas, and that they seek to do all of that in order to control us, weaken us, and lead us into a state of loss; and this state can be clearly seen in the reality of our countries. For decades, each country has been steeped in political crises, economic crises, social crises, and various problems: The health situation and education are deteriorating; all fields are dominated by failure, and what prevails in all of them is the state of crisis. With regard to those economically very powerful countries, the best they aim to or they are at is that they build themselves as huge markets and compete as huge markets for their [the enemies'] sake and interest, instead of being strongly productive countries.

We must confront them in this area and realize that we are in conflict with them and that they seek to misguide us. Also, we have to think and be aware and cautious of their goals when providing us with anything at any level. Moreover, we have to return to the Holy Quran, which guides us to what builds us and changes our entire reality for the better.

Regarding to their movement to spread corruption, Allah says about them, {'And they endeavor to do corruption on the earth, but Allah does not love the corruptors'}[Al-Ma'idah 5:64]. This is an extensive title that indicates their endeavour to corrupt life in every aspect:

  • Part of their efforts in this regard is directed into moral corruption, which is one of the worst things they do in a blatant, explicit, clear manner. They intensively seek to intensively and very carefully spread the crime and outrageous sin of adultery, taking care of all factors and introductions that lead to that crime and outrageous sin: They push people towards chaotic mixing in an extraordinary way and noticeably tempt males and females into forbidden relationships; they intensively seek to remove important faith-based boundaries that go in line with true human nature, and intensively seek to push women into displaying finery and to combat and distort decency and chastity, and as for the media, they use it to promote this with obscene, pornographic scenes and to pump corrupting materials of bad effect into it in order to corrupt the soul. The war with them in this area is outrageous.
  • They Also seek to separate women from their families and social environment. They try to separate them from their families and make them lose connection with them in order for them to have control over women. Even organizations in our country have sought to make women travel from the country, to attract them, and make them travel alone; they stipulate that women travel to Europe, to the USA, to the UK, or to any other far country without guardians so that they can hunt these women, corrupt them, mislead them, and work on separating them from their communities and families. At the same time, they keep women close to them so they follow their directives and instructions and move in these activities they order and encourage them towards. This way they will keep such women completely connected to them and turn them into a corrupting element in society after they have separated them from their families and communities and cut all those bonds between them.
  • They heinously, blatantly, and shamefully seek to spread the heinous and awful crime and outrageous sin of homosexuality. And they seek to legalize it, protect it by law, and normalize it. They want it to become a normal matter and normal behaviour among society so that people in society do not condemn it and do not shame those who commit it, vilify them, or object to them. Instead, they want to protect them and provide legal protection for them.
  • They spread drugs in an extensive way, using those who have weakness in their faith ad who are greedy and materialistic, and they spread alcohol. They do so to corrupt the youth and society as a whole: the old and the young, men and women. In addition to corrupting and depraving the soul (for drugs and alcohol are corrupting), they seek to damage the health of the youth and the sons of society because all of that harms health in a very horrible way. They also aim to harm the economy and make it focus on what harms and corrupts. Indeed, instead of focusing on what builds the reality of life, what provides the main requirements of life, and what is beneficial and useful, people focus on what harms, trading what harms, corrupts, and damages the health of the youth.
  • They aim to spread AIDS in society. The kind of situation they like to prevail is that situation where they can see the sons, the youth, and men of this Ummah become ill people who are corrupted, despicable, and decadent and who have been emptied of their human values to the extent they no longer possess any pride, jealousy, bravery, freedom, dignity, might, prevention, belief, principles, values, or sacred goals in this life. They see such people suffer from AIDS and pay no effort in reality, so they cannot produce anything for their Ummah and cannot be relied on in the reality of their Ummah as to defend it, build its renaissance, or serve it. They are of no use even for their families. Indeed, this is the state that pleases them: when the sons and the youth of the Ummah, who are supposed to be the pillars of its renaissance, fall into that state.

Their activity in this too horrible, too heinous crime, which is abusive to human society as a whole, is shameful. America itself adopts this issue, and the Zionist lobby moves towards this direction with all its capabilities in the world. For this purpose, efforts are paid at the political, legal, and media levels. They are very active in this area, and this makes it clear how bad, corrupt, despicable, immoral, and filthy they are, as well as how intense their hatred is. That is because this is a means of targeting human society with the goal of diluting it and emptying it from human and natural values so that it does not possess any sense of dignity, pride, and honour in order for them to control it. They use very despicable, bad methods, and the aim of all of that is to control societies after they have diluted and become empty of innate and human values.

When a person reaches a point where he possesses no sense of honour, pride, dignity, or values of faith, and when he becomes despicable, bad, corrupt, humiliated, and bad and does not show sanctity to anything in this life, then nothing can make him feel dignity or have jealousy or fury. They want to make a person like this to control him, for when a person falls into this state, they won't need to fear him and can control him completely.

This also has to do with seeking to destroy the economy, in addition to their interest in destroying the health situation in our countries in general. Therefore, as long as the regimes of our peoples and the governments of our countries tie themselves to the orientations of the enemies and their products, their policies, and their methods that they provide to this Ummah in the area of health, diseases and epidemics will increase and the health situation will deteriorate. This also means new diseases will arise and ravage society. The enemies do focus on what harms our society whether in their food production, in the other things they produce (such as medicine), or in the method itself and medical policies they adopt.

What also falls into this category is the gases and pesticides manufactured by them to be used in agriculture but then turn from insecticides into humanicides that kill people and spread deadly diseases among them. Many of the extremely harmful gases they produce and sell to merchants in our countries have become a means to kill our people and spread cancer and viral hepatitis on a large scale, as well as other diseases that are fatal to human bodies. These toxins harm the health of society and turn into a means of killing our society; this is a dangerous and disastrous issue and one of their harmful means of targeting the Ummah.

In addition, they know that if one goes astray and becomes corrupted through corruption and misleading, he will automatically move to serve them, to carry out their conspiracies, and to automatically act in a way that benefits them and serves their interests. So they do not need to work hard or face difficulty, for his orientation becomes like their own orientation: corruption and misleading. Indeed, when a human goes astray and becomes corrupted, he becomes an element that moves with corruption and deviation within society. So they benefit from the spread of corruption, deviation, as well as from those who become corrupted because they automatically move in the same direction. And this is what the Quran warned against, when Allah said, {'You see those with sickness in their hearts racing for their guardianship'}[Al-Ma'idah 5:52]—they take the initiative, do not need to be attracted or invited, and move in the same direction and act accordingly.

In the face of all of this, we must remain mindful of our conflict with them in all these fields and seek to protect ourselves from them and stand ready to confront them and their methods in every field:

We must understand what they are seeking, how they operate, and what we need to do in response. We must understand the nature of our conflict with them and that it includes every area and field. Let us move in every field to confront them, carrying this spirit of awareness, consciousness, faithfulness, Jihad; for they are spiteful enemies who never wish us any good, even if Allah is the source of that good! Allah says, {'The disbelievers from the People of the Book and the polytheists would not want you to receive any blessing from your Lord'} [Al-Baqarah 2:105]. So how it comes that we expect them to do us any good! Nothing comes from them except evil, even if it presented under good titles. It is like the deception of Shaytan when he said to Adam, {'O Adam! Shall I show you the Tree of Immortality and a kingdom that does not fade away?'}[Taha 20:120]. Actually, he wanted to strip Adam even of his clothing, make him lose that garden with all its luxurious living, and drive him out of that bliss and comfort to complete misery.

At the military level, we know what they do when they strike the Ummah and target it. They do not hesitate to commit any crimes. This takes place by waging war directly as what they are doing in Palestine and what they have done in Lebanon, Iraq, Afghanistan, and other areas. They commit mass murder against people with the use of the deadliest and most dangerous weapons. They kill everyone (children, women, men, civilians) through mass crimes, murder, and genocide. All concepts become useless (no human rights, no women's rights), as they kill women in a heinous manner and tear them into pieces with their destructive and deadly bombs. There is also no place for children's rights, as they kill even fetuses in their mothers' wombs and slaughter infants in their mothers' arms. They tear society apart, destroy homes and buildings, bomb cities and villages, and target public properties.

This also takes place by supervising wars carried out by their tools and hands [proxies]. Brutality and criminality are clear in such wars, and they provide political and media cover. As long as this is carried out for their own good and for the sake of achieving their goals, granting them material gain, and serving their interests from multiple aspects, then they have no problem about killing everyone (young and old, men and women) and turning their backs to all rights and all banners they wave only when seeking to accomplish wicked schemes and burnish their image. Where are the rights of Palestinian children and women? Where did human rights disappear when they invaded Iraq and did what they did to the Iraqi people in every period of their occupation of Iraq and when their tools have committed heinous crimes against humanity in Yemen? Since it is for their own sake, all concepts disappear, and they do not hesitate to do anything.

With regard to their military potentials, they seek to possess the most dangerous and deadliest weapons, even nuclear weapons, biological weapons, bacteriological weapons, and all kinds of weapons that kill human beings massively and exterminate as many people as possible. This shows their atrocity, hostility, and devilish, criminal tendency.

However, they fight the oppressed nations in order not to possess even the simplest weapons to defend themselves. They impose a tight blockade on the Palestinians and mujahidin in Palestine (even some Arab countries contribute in this blockade) in order not make it possible for them to even bring medium weapons or to own the military capabilities to protect themselves. They want the Palestinian people to remain unarmed, without weapons, so that they bring their bulldozers to destroy their houses, uproot the olive trees from their farms, and destroy crops and cattle, while making sure that no one has the ability to stand up to them, that [Zionist] enemy, and getting all kinds of weapons. Indeed, the Zionist enemy is allowed to gain all military capabilities, even the nuclear weapon. Why is that?

Moreover, they ingrain in the public mind, among people, countries, and the Ummah that civilization means it should be a weak, unarmed ummah that does not possess capabilities to defend itself! It becomes something they charge you with that our dear people and courageous army in Yemen got weapons to defend themselves. They consider it an extraordinary achievement when they announce detecting a shipment of simple arms such as rifles, and they then claim that it was directed to our people and that this act is something dangerous, shameful, and inappropriate, but thanks to them and great achievements, they were able to seize that shipment! They follow the same pattern in targeting the rest of the Ummah's sons.

They are enemies who seek to deprive the Ummah of all elements of strength at the military and economic levels as well as at the level of political stability, power, and might. Their enmity is undoubtedly obvious; not seeing that enmity results from turning a blind eye to it due to following inclinations.

They burn the Holy Quran, insult our Prophet (PBUH&F), kill the sons of the Islamic Ummah, shed their blood, occupy their countries, plunder their wealth, and impose military bases to humiliate, subdue, and control the Ummah in all the strategic locations of the geographical area that it possesses (in this country or that, in the seas, or in the straits). And they move to prevent this Ummah from any economic renaissance based on right foundations; they fight these [Muslim] nations by the means of blockade and destructive policies to economy, construction, and everything. Besides, they move to fight every free voice of the sons of this Ummah that seeks to obtain might, freedom, and independence for this Ummah as well as defending its dignity and legal rights.

They also work diligently to practice deception and corruption in which they seek—this is what we noticed recently, and it is an extremely dangerous step—to prevent the rule of Islam in our countries through breeding, establishing, and spreading new religions in our societies, such as the Ahmadis and the Bahá'ís, which are strange to our societies and incompatible with Islam; then they attempt to impose rights for them (what they call political rights and so on) and thus prevent the rule of Islam on the pretext that as there are various religions this country, Islam cannot remain the ruling religion. This is a devilish way which is neither acceptable not just at all; nay, it is a way to fight Islam.

In the face of all this enmity and comprehensive efforts to target us in all areas and before what some of the Ummah's sons do (befriend them, interact with them, and respond to them), we do understand that the right path is the Quranic position that provides protection and strength for the Ummah and represents a necessity and a need for it to adopt. In the face of this injustice, corruption, and loss, the Ummah needs to be saved, strengthened, and granted might and protection from their evil. Their corruption, deception, and injustice are evil through which they try to control us and plunder our wealth as well as exploit, enslave, and subdue us. Indeed, all that is extreme evil that targets this Ummah.

The right, successful, and effective position is the Quranic position that pushes us to stand up to them according to Allah's teachings and instructions. In case some are hopeless or have a tendency for surrender, weakness, or hopelessness, this results from lack of awareness, from weak faith, and from lack of understanding of life, reality, and the Holy Quran. The inevitable loss for the Ummah is when it surrenders to them and takes them as guardians, even though they do not appreciate that.

What did they do for those countries that some of which turn to modify their curricula to introduce the Zionists as friends? Did the Zionists modify anything in their curricula for them? Did they incorporate in their curricula what says that Arabs are lovely friends, namely the Emiratis? Is not true that there in their culture, beliefs, and curriculum what strengthens that point of view that considers Muslims and Arabs, in particular, as non-human beings in reality but semi-human beings that seem similar to human beings in form in order to serve the Children of Israel and to be worthy of serving the Zionist Jews! These steps that are taken by some Arab countries to draw closer to them and that reflect a servile attitude, hypocrisy, and injustice have been met with nothing by them. Indeed, they do nothing in response but laugh at them. Allah Who is the most truthful of speakers says, {'Here you are! You love them but they do not love you'}[Ali 'Imran 3:119]. As for them, whatever one does, he will remain loathsome and contemptible.

No matter how severe the attack against our Ummah is and no matter to what extent the state of apostasy inside our Ummah is in the face of this attack, Allah's truthful promise, that never differs nor changes, gives glad tidings to the free people of our Ummah who are righteous and responsive to Allah that in the midst of that attack comes relief, salvation, and victory: Allah says in the Holy Quran, {'O believers! Whoever among you abandons their religion, Allah will replace them with others who are loved by Him and love Him. They will be humble with the believers but firm towards the disbelievers, and they fight in the cause of Allah, fearing no blame from anyone. This is the favour of Allah. He grants it to whoever He wills. And Allah is All-Bountiful, All-Knowing'}[Al-Ma'idah 5:54]. In the face of the state of apostasy, Allah (Glory be to Him) will bring forth those people who have great and lofty characteristics that make them qualified to be at the highest level of steadfastness, effectiveness, and adherence to their principles, values, morals, honour, dignity, might, faith, and religion. So they move on the basis of these great, distinctive characteristics.

Allah's guidance (Glory be to Him) in the Holy Quran—which guides us to good positions, deeds, and orientations, reveals the truth of the enemies, and guides us to confront the enemies' conspiracies—is the path to safety, success, and triumph, and it encourages us to seek obtaining these characteristics: the characteristics that should be what we focus on, pay attention to, and hasten to instead of hastening to our enemies and what leads to the destruction, humiliation, and collapse of the Ummah. Indeed, we must hasten to obtain these characteristics, starting from adhering to the guardianship of Allah (Glory be to Him) and rejecting the guardianship of our enemies, for it is a kind of satanic and harmful guardianship that weakens, humiliates, and subjugates the Ummah and leads it to lose its religion, life, might, future, present, and hereafter: It is the kind of guardianship that leads to destruction, humiliation, subjugation, and disgrace; it is the guardianship of a malicious, bad, despicable, corruptive, and misleading enemy who is associated with Shaytan. Therefore, we must not accept their guardianship, for it is an extension of Shaytan's guardianship.

We must seek to end our association with them at the intellectual and cultural levels, gain independence based on our Islamic affiliation, and hold on to the Holy Quran, the Prophet, those who stick to the Quran, and the leaders who follow the Quran: Allah (Glory be to Him) says, {'How can you disbelieve when Allah's revelations are recited to you and His Messenger is in your midst'}[Ali 'Imran 3:101]. It is Allah's light that raise our awareness, enlightens us, and grants us sufficient awareness in the face of all their misguidance that comes in the form of researches, studies, thoughts, perceptions, instructions, etc.

We must move as Allah guides us in the Holy Quran to face them and fight in the cause of Allah: {'They fight in the cause of Allah, fearing no blame from anyone'}[Al-Ma'idah 5:54]. We must fight in the cause of Allah in all the fields and areas to face and confront the enemies in every area and know what they want, plan, seek, and aim. This way we can confront them, while we carry the sprite of Jihad.

And there is a huge difference (like the difference between the heavens and the earth and the stars and the dust) between the one who moves in a routine, cold, and bland way without paying attention to the threats and what threatens the Ummah or having no sense responsibility towards that, and the one who moves in all fields and areas while having awareness and enjoying a sense of responsibility and the sprite of Jihad. He enters the political field and confronts the conspiracies of those enemies.

We should also seek to return to the Holy Quran in all fields and to adhere to what Allah (our Lord, the Merciful, the Generous, and the Great, who wants good for us and wants for us what leads to our success and safety) has presented to us:

Hence, when we move to face the Zionist entity in accordance with the guidance of Allah (Glory be to Him), the sound instinct, and the legitimate rights, we should take it for granted that its destiny is to disappear and its inevitable fate is defeat, which is an already determined fate, but who did confirm this? It is Allah (Glory be to Him), Who arranges the affairs of the heavens and the earth and has dominion over them. Therefore, we should move with hope and confidence, and the source of danger and what leads to a problem in our reality stem from our own shortcomings, our own negligence and carelessness. In contrast, remaining mindful of Allah the way He deserves, showing attention and seriousness, and paying sincere and conscious efforts with a spirit of Jihadi are what can grant us success and the pleasure of Allah (Glory be to Him) and lead to victory, might, dignity, strength, and goodness in this world and the Hereafter.

Accordingly, we move based on this Quranic perspective and with complete faith and confidence, no matter how the enemies try to portray any such efforts as efforts directed and influenced by Iran or resulted from a materialistic relationship with Iran. This is a false accusation, slander, and distortion of this position. Iran itself adopts this position based on its religious, ideological, and doctrinal beliefs. The free sons of the Ummah, including the free people and mujahidin in Palestine, all move from this Quranic perspective, and we also move from a Quranic perspective that unites us with the free people of our Ummah and its sons who move in this direction with sound minds and hearts free from illness. That is because the position from the enemy, such as the Zionist enemy, the Zionist lobby in the world, and those behind it in America and the West, is a normal, healthy and instinctive position. They are enemies who target our Ummah, occupy our lands, kill our people, and plunder our resources. So how can some people call for kissing the hand that slaps you, attacks you, kills you, mocks your principles and values, fights your religion, and targets your sacred sites?

Our position is a Quranic position. Our relationship with the free sons of our Ummah, our cooperation with them, our joint efforts with them, and even our striving to be united with them to the highest level against the enemies of our Ummah is something we are proud of. It is our humanitarian, moral, Quranic, Islamic duty and Quranic, Islamic obligation. It is also a source of strength for us, no matter how critical and noisy others are about it. And every effort we pay in this context is driven by our spirit of faith and Jihad and by our Islamic, Quranic perspective through which we seek to draw near to Allah (Glory be to Him) to enjoy His victory, support, and pleasure.

In this context, I call on our dear people to go out tomorrow on the International Quds Day with a large, massive, popular presence to express this position of faith:

  • - to take as enemies those who bear enmity towards our Ummah; - to reaffirm our position against the Zionist enemy; - to support the Palestinian people; and to emphasize the unity of our position with the free people of our Ummah, with the mujahidin in Palestine, and with the axis of Jihad and resistance

This also has to do with emphasizing our readiness and willingness to engage in any crucial, decisive battle against that Zionist enemy, which is a temporary and dying entity that will definitely perish soon. It began to badly crack from the inside, and the positive results of the unity, cooperation, and coordination of the free people of the Ummah have become apparent in its effective and promising fruits, whose result in the future (Allah willing) will be the fulfillment of the divine promise and the decisive victory.

We ask Allah (Glory be to Him) to grant us success in seeking what pleases Him. O Allah (Glory be to You), have mercy on our martyrs, heal the wounded among us, set free our captives, and grant us victory. You are All-Hearing!

O Allah, accept our fasting, night prayers, and good deeds.

Peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.

E.M
