Sana'a: The enemy's rumors and misinformation campaigns led by the Saudi-Emirati coalition's media and its tools have not weakened the resolve of Yemeni scholars, nor have they been deterred by the repeated lies and rumours. Rather, their position has remained firm and unwavering from 2015 until today.
According to Yemen News Agency, Yemeni scholars have confronted the Zionist-American project with steadfastness and courage, fulfilling their religious and national duty towards the oppressed, foremost among them the people of Gaza and Palestine. They have championed justice in all fields and presented a model of steadfastness and resilience in the face of global tyranny and arrogance.
In a humanitarian and historic event, the capital, Sana'a, hosted the annual conference of Yemeni scholars on Wednesday under the theme "The Position of the Nation's Scholars on the War of Extermination and Starvation in Gaza and the Greater Israel Plan." The conference was organized by the Yemeni Scholars Association, with the participation of a group of scholars from various governorates, along with scholars from several Arab and Islamic countries, coinciding with the anniversary of the Prophet's birthday.
The Yemeni News Agency (Saba) participated in covering the conference and surveyed the scholars' opinions on their unwavering message regarding the issues of the nation, including the Palestinian cause, and their stance on silent and indolent scholars.
The Secretary-General of the Yemeni Scholars Association, Sheikh Taha Al-Hadhri, said that the scholars' stance is an extension of the stance of Yemen-its leadership, government, people, army, and media-in support of the oppressed in Gaza and throughout Palestine. He added that the stance of the Yemeni scholars is an argument against the scholars of the nation, from Al-Azhar Al-Sharif, Al-Zaytouna, Saudi Arabia, the Gulf, and the Arab Maghreb. He asked, "If the scholars do not speak the truth, who will speak for them?"
Sheikh Al-Hadhri addressed a message to the scholars of the nation, urging them to take a sincere stance regarding what is happening in Gaza and not conceal their knowledge of the killing, destruction, and attempts to displace and starve our brothers and sisters in Gaza. He pointed out that the celebration of the Prophet's birthday, which has disturbed the enemies, is the dividing line between Islam and its enemies, the forces of hegemony and arrogance.
Meanwhile, the President of the Capital Municipality Court of Appeal, Judge Taha Uqba, condemned the silent, indolent, and reticent stance of scholars who have refused to speak the truth. These scholars claim to believe in Allah and His Messenger, yet they have not been moved by the shameful massacres being perpetrated against our brothers in Gaza. He explained that the children, women, and elderly of Gaza are suffering from aggression, killing, destruction, siege, starvation, and hardship as a result of the Zionist enemy's actions against them.
For his part, Dr. Mujib Marzah, a member of the Yemeni Scholars Association, emphasized that the current stance of scholars is not merely rhetorical for the common people, let alone the scholars of the nation. He said, "The fundamental thing is for scholars to shift their stance from rhetoric to action, because the current phase is facing a decisive challenge in the struggle between truth and falsehood, good and evil, Islam and the forces of disbelief, the Jews, Zionists, and Crusaders."
Dr. Marzah described the stance of Yemeni scholars as honorable, serving as a reminder to the silent scholars of the Ummah who have not yet taken action. He addressed a message to the complacent and submissive scholars to fear Allah in their own hearts, speak out the truth, and fear none but Allah.
Sheikh Yahya al-Najjar, a member of the Yemeni Scholars Association, emphasized the importance of the role of scholars in taking a sincere and serious stand with the Palestinian cause and the people of Gaza, who are being slaughtered. He urged scholars of the Arab and Islamic world to emulate the stance of the Yemeni scholars, who have mobilized and shouldered their responsibility towards their brothers in Gaza.
The conference reiterated the scholars' guiding and advisory stance in confronting the fierce attack being waged against the nation by its enemies. Sheikh Muqbil al-Kadhi emphasized that the position of Yemeni scholars is a jihadist position, an extension of the position of the revolutionary leadership.
The Yemeni Scholars Conference sent a powerful message to the scholars of the Islamic world about the necessity of fulfilling their religious duty and speaking out the truth in support of Gaza, Palestine, and all the oppressed. The voice of Yemen remains a witness to steadfastness and pride, and a conclusive argument against the negligent until Allah grants victory.
