The Grand Mufti also praised the leader of the revolution, Sayyed Abdul-Malik Badr Al-Din Al-Houthi, for his wisdom in addressing jihad, stressing its necessity amid adversarial pressures. He further discussed the significance of the Arabic word "shaheed" (martyr) and criticized the adversaries' attempts to erase the identity of free peoples advocating for jihad.
