Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Our country, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, is facing malicious campaigns from some callers of fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) who seek to overthrow the system. How do we confront these callers and protect ourselves from their poisons?

Answer:

they will not be harmed by anyone who will not help them or who will oppose themلا يضرهم من خذلهم ولا من خالفهم

. If they target the Kingdom, and the Kingdom is upright upon the truth and upon the implementation of the law of Allah, they will not harm it, because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) informed us of this:
not being injured by those who desert or oppose them till God's affair comes aboutلا يضرهم من خذلهم ولا من خالفهم حتى يأتي أمر الله
Mishkat al-Masabih 30:296
(Blessed and Exalted is He). So Allah guaranteed them protection:
if you support Allah, He will support you and plant firmly your feet.إِن تَنصُرُوا اللَّهَ يَنصُرْكُمْ وَيُثَبِّتْ أَقْدَامَكُمْ
[Muhammad 47:7]
Do not imagine, my brother, do not imagine. May Allah guide you. Yes.
