Update 23 Safr 1435: houthis murder Peace Committee in Hashid

Day 79: 

Today we buried another young boy murdered by the houthis. 'Ali As-Sumaali Ad-Dirri was 15 years of age. He was killed by a mortar shell that fell on him and two others. The other two students suffered injuries.

At this moment the houthi snipers have profusely accelerated their shooting. The houthis have been launching mortar shells since last night up until 12 p.m. today 

This is the head of a 37mm anti-aircraft round that was found by the children. Keep in mind that the houthis have been sniping at the inhabitants of Dammaaj (men, women, and children) since the first day with this artillery and they use it on regular bases.

Also  yesterday in Hashid where Sheikh Hussein Al-Ahmar leads a gathering from Ahlus-Sunnah and the Qabaail (tribes) of Yemen to open the siege of Dammaaj, the houthis killed five members of a peace committee gathered to negotiate a cease fire in the village of Khaywaan (a village on the way to Dammaaj from San'aa).

Update 21 Safr 1435h: Day 77 of the houthi's war on Al-Islaam and the Muslims

Day 77: 

This last week has been somewhat calmer. There is an occasional fire from heavy artillery but the houthi snipers are still relentless. Still there are students being killed and injured daily. Every night, all hours of the night, the houthis blast their speeches and music on loud speakers from different directions sometimes simultaneously.  

Yesterday we buried a young boy named Mu'aad An-Nakha'i. He was murdered by a shot from a houthi sniper to his head . Today we buried another young boy Hamza As-Sumaali Ad-Daaroodi. He was killed by shrapnel that went into his head. Two other students were injured at and around the time Hamza was injured. 

The white surveillance plane that has been hovering over us since before the first siege has been very busy these last 5 or 6 days. Usually keeping a schedule starting after about 4p.m. until 7 to 8p.m. Also a appeared to be military helicopter was spotted flying over yesterday.

 It is said that the houthis are planning a big hujoom (attack). They have recently built a station for their tank in one of the mountainous areas that surround the Markaz (the institute).  It is said they they want to attack the main Masjid and maybe even they will attack the shelters for the women and the children which they have done throughout this siege.


There has been an increase in the fierce fighting between some of the prominent Tribes of Yemen and the houthis. Particularly the former Presidential candidate Hussein Al-Ahmar from the tribe of Hashid. In general the people of the Sunnah from the tribes and other than them in Yemen are well aware of the reality of the of houthis. It is known that they are a heretical militant terrorist group who fight Al-Islaam in the name of Al-Islaam and are the perpetrators of various criminal acts upon the people of Yemen. The people have chose to follow that which Al-Islaam orders and to aid their brothers in Dammaaj. Not as many misinterpret that this is a sectarian war or some type of power struggle. This is simply an act of terrorism that many have chose to keep quiet about. Many of the Yemenis believe that it is some sort of outside pressure or influence that has subdued the Yemeni Government and are preventing them to aid in any way.

There is a total concensus amongst the Scholars of Yemen, many of the Scholars of Saudia who are aware of this crisis and the Tribes of Yemen for jihaad (struggle) against the oppression and tyranny of the houthis.

Update 15,16 Safr 1435h: Tribal Gathering this Friday

Today we buried our beloved brother Khaalid As-Sanaafi. A day before his murder a companion of his said he will invite him to eat the next day Khaalid said, "invite me today because tomorrow I will be traveling (die a Shaheed). The next day (yesterday) he was murdered by a houthi sniper. Another one of his companions was unable to reach Khaalid before he was murdered to tell about a dream he had of him. Khaalid's companion said he had a dream that there were two extremely beautiful women looking for him (Khaalid). May Allah accept him and the rest as Shuhadaa.

The white surveillance plane has been very busy these last few days even at night. Its flying over us now as we hear artillery fire from a tank or cannon.


These last few days have been fairly quiet (sniping and occasional shelling). So some of us were able to return home with our families for good night’s sleep . Many of the students had to abandon their homes due to the random shelling and sniping of the houthis. One would sit in his house all day and night in fear supplicating to Allah not knowing when a tank, cannon, mortar or bullet would come through the house and kill someone as has happened many times so far. 

This quietness may be due to the called gathering of the tribes of Yemen this Friday to end this obvious act of terrorism on more than 15,000 people. Many people criticize the tribal way in Yemen but they (the tribes) seem to be the only ones who have acted in accordance to Islaam in this destructive act of the houthis. By way of helping the oppressed against the oppressor, answering the call of ones brother in need of help, etc. While government officials and the media sit silent twisted up in the lies and the deception of the houthis, damaging political methods and destructive ulterior motives. As one houthi spokesman says in an interview that there is no blockade the people coming and going for food in Dammaj only weapons. So I guess we are imagining this whole thing! It seems that government officials and the media have very little knowledge when it comes to The Deen (Religion) of Al-Islaam. This is just as harmful to us as the houthis. To this day they are not able to make distinction between the oppressed and the oppressor. THIS IS A CLEAR WAR ON AL-ISLAAM. The Methodology of the Muslim is to help the oppressed against the oppressor by stopping the actions of the oppressor. But what we have seen so far is the opposite.

This is the aftermath of the first tank attack on the Main Masjid in Dammaaj. The only one who died in this attack was an elderly man who was known for sitting in his same spot everyday reading Qur'aan. This picture illustrates the clear war against Islaam of the houthis.

 

Our Advice to you oh our Muslim brother in Islaam from the Government and the Media:

Ibn Mas’ood, one of the Companions of the Prophet Muhammad said:

He heard a man saying, “He who does not order that which is good and forbid what is evil, is condemned.” Ibn Mas’ood replied, “He whose heart does not know the difference between good and evil is condemned.”

The Renowned Scholar Ibn Rajb said in his explanation of this Athar of Ibn Mas’ood:

“Ibn Mas’ood pointed out that the heart’s knowledge of good and evil actions is obligatory from which no one is excused from. Therefore, he who does not know the difference (between good and evil) will be destroyed.”
