Sana'a: The capital witnessed a large women's rally west of Al-Thwra Park on Friday, denouncing repeated U.S. insults against the Holy Qur'an and the ongoing aggression on the Gaza Strip.
According to Yemen News Agency, the women of the Capital raised their voices, renewing their covenant with the Book of God and affirming that any affront to the Holy Qur'an is an affront to the nation's creed, dignity, and identity. Participants stated that the heinous crime committed by an American criminal-placing a copy of the Holy Qur'an in the mouth of a pig-is not an isolated individual act but rather a blatant expression of deep-rooted Zionist-American hatred toward Islam and its sanctities.
They chanted resounding faith-based slogans, affirming that the Holy Qur'an is preserved by God's promise and that all attempts at desecration will only increase the nation's adherence to the Book of its Lord and its rejection of tyranny and global arrogance. A statement issued by the rally affirmed that the crime of insulting the Holy Qur'an represents a resounding moral collapse of so-called Western civilization, exposing the falsity of its slogans about freedom and human rights, and constitutes a flagrant assault on the feelings of more than two billion Muslims across the world.
The statement held the United States, Britain, and the Zionist enemy fully responsible for the repeated insults, which reflect their hatred and open hostility toward Islam and Muslims. It stressed that these crimes will not pass under any deceptive cover such as 'freedom of expression' or other false labels, noting that such slogans completely collapse whenever the crimes of the Zionist enemy are criticized in the United States and Western countries. The statement called on the Islamic nation to take urgent action and mobilize comprehensively to express anger and categorical rejection of this heinous crime targeting the most sacred sanctities of Islam, and demanded a boycott of American and Israeli products.
Addressing the sons of the Islamic nation, the statement emphasized the importance of rising in defense of the religion, sanctities, and the Holy Qur'an. It warned that silence and complacency will bring God's wrath, disgrace in this world, and punishment in the Hereafter. The statement affirmed the continuation along the path of faith and jihad, steadfastness in supporting the oppressed Palestinian Muslim people, and readiness to confront upcoming rounds of conflict.
The statement also strongly condemned a gas deal concluded by the Egyptian authorities with the Zionist entity, labeling it as a reward for its crimes against the Palestinian people in Gaza. It called for the cancellation of the deal and urged Egypt not to tarnish its history and struggle against the Zionist entity, stressing that the revenues of this deal will be used to bolster the Zionist war machine.
