Sanaa: The General Authority of Endowments and Guidance Office along with the Scholars and Learners Unit in Sanaa province orchestrated an expanded meeting involving scholars, preachers, and religious guides to mark the birthday of Prophet Muhammad. The gathering aimed to express support for the holy Quran and endorse leadership decisions and military operations.
According to Yemen News Agency, the meeting focused on enhancing the role of religious figures in increasing community awareness, safeguarding Islamic sanctities, and addressing repeated offenses against the holy Quran. Participants highlighted the importance of drawing lessons from the Prophet's life, fostering social solidarity and religious identity, and raising awareness of external efforts to destabilize Yemeni society.
The assembly called for the defense of the Quran, strengthening Islamic solidarity, supporting Palestine and Gaza, and maintaining Yemen's stance against the Saudi-U.S. blockade and aggression. Solidarity with Iran, Lebanon, and Iraq was also expressed, with opposition to foreign military bases in the region and warnings against disarming armed groups in Gaza, Lebanon, and Iraq.
Further calls were made for greater public mobilization and vigilance, urging Islamic countries to lend support to Palestine. Sanaa province's scholars and preachers condemned Saudi Arabia's violations of Islamic sanctities, notably the act of handing over the Kaaba's covering to Israeli figure 'Epstein.'
The participants called on the Muslim world to denounce this act, form an investigative committee, take appropriate actions against the Saudi authorities, and strip them of their custodianship of the Grand Mosque, the Prophet's Mosque, and other holy sites.
