🚨Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia Condemns Attacks Targeting the Holy Sites and Pilgrims
The Grand Mufti of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Sheikh Dr. Saleh bin Fawzan Al-Fawzan, condemned the terrorist attacks carried out by the Houthi militia against civilians, innocent lives, and those journeying to the Two Holy Mosques.
His Eminence emphasized that targeting the visitors of Masjid Al-Haram in Makkah and Masjid An-Nabawi in Madinah is among the gravest crimes, warning that those who attack the sanctities of Allah face severe punishment.
Citing the words of Allah:
And whoever intends therein deviation by wrongdoing — We will make him taste a painful punishment
and the guidance of the Prophet ﷺ regarding Madinah, he affirmed that throughout history, those who sought to harm the sacred places and their visitors faced destruction and a disastrous end.
“They ask you about fighting in the sacred month. Say, ‘Fighting in it is a grave sin. But preventing people from the path of Allah, disbelieving in Him, barring access to the Sacred Mosque, and expelling its people from it are greater sins in Allah’s sight. And persecution is worse than killing.’”
— Surah Al-Baqarah, 2:217 (excerpt)
Recitation by His Eminence Sheikh Prof. Dr. Abdullah Al-Juhany, Imam and Khateeb of Masjid Al-Haram, during Isha prayer on 1 Jumada al-Ula 1448 AH.
بقلوبٍ موجوعة، ننعى المفتي الشيخ «#نصر_الله_البدر»، القادم من #بنغلاديش لأداء العمرة، الذي توفي جراء اعتداء #مليشيا_الحوثي على مطار الملك خالد الدولي في #الرياض.
كان يقصد بيت الله معتمراً .. فاعترضت طريقه جريمةٌ لم ترعَ للمسافر أماناً، و لا لضيف الرحمن حرمةً.
اللهم اكتب له أجر العبادة التي خرج إليها، و تقبّله في الشهداء، و اجعل له في جنّتك لقاءً تنتهي عنده وحشة الفراق، و اربط على قلوب أهله و محبّيه.
لأهلنا في #بنغلاديش صادق العزاء .. فقيدكم أخونا، و مصابكم مصابنا، و دمه وجعٌ في قلب #السعودية.
إنا لله و إنا إليه راجعون.
This is a war against Muslims of all nations.
Houthis are enemies of Islam.
Nationalities of the deceased in the King Khalid Airport Houthi attack:
- 4 Saudis.
- 2 from Bangladesh.
- 1 American.
- 1 Egyptian.
- 1 Jordanian.
- 1 Syrian.
- 1 Palestinian.
- 1 Sudanese.
Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji’un
The satanic Houthis have killed a dozen pilgrims in Saudi Arabia
May Allah hasten the defeat of these rafidha-backed shayateen and free Yemen and the Arab peninsula from their scourge and ilk
May Allah have mercy on the deceased, forgive their shortcomings, widen their grave and shine light upon them therein
May He show us His Might and Strength by making an example of the Houthis and the Zionists, as well those who enable and support them in their transgression and bloodshed
May He safeguard the Muslim lands from trials, tribulations and threats - internal and external
May He unite us upon tawheed and protect us from falling into shirk and sin
May He strengthen us as an ummah and as individuals so we can establish what He ordered us to establish and forbid what He forbade in and around ourselves
We ask the Sovereign of the Day of Judgement to deal with the enemies of Islam and the hypocrites and the transgressors
Rabbana wa taqabbal dua 🤲
