Sayyed Abdulmalik Al-Houthi: Saudi regime’s decision to prevent Hajj for 2nd year is dangerous matter

SANAA, Aug. 09 (YPA) – The Leader of the Revolution Sayyed Abdulmalik Al-Houthi affirmed on Monday that the Saudi regime’s decision to prevent Hajj for the second year in row under the pretext of Corona is a dangerous matter.

In his speech this afternoon, on the occasion of the anniversary of the Prophet’s migration and about the latest developments in the region, Sayyed Abdulmalik said: “We do not see in Corona a justification for the Saudi regime to prevent Hajj from the countries of the world.”

He pointed out that restricting the pilgrimage to a specific country and to a limited number represents a violation of the sanctity of this ritual, and it is a dangerous step.

Sayyed Abdulmalik considered the justifications of Saudi Arabia, which many Islamic countries have accepted, neither convincing nor legitimate.

He called on the Saudi regime to stop preventing Hajj and to open the way for people to perform Hajj and Umrah, referring that it had opened the way for the activities of the Entertainment Authority without pretexting Corona.
