Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: You know, may Allah preserve you, what happened two days ago when the Rafidah Houthis targeted the safe, sacred Makkah with a missile, but Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, showed mercy, and our brave soldiers woke up before it hit its target. He asks: What are your instructions regarding this, and what is obligatory for Muslims in this matter?
Answer:
That we thank Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, for averting their plot from the Sacred Mosque, and that we pray against them. We pray against them, and they are deserving of punishment. They are not the first to do this. What did the Qarmatians do to the House? And before them, what did the King of Abyssinia intend to do to demolish the Ka'bah? But Allah, Mighty and Majestic, is watching over them. Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, is watching over them. Yes.[Al-Fil 105:1]?
This King of Abyssinia came with a great elephant to demolish the Ka'bah, but Allah prevented him. Then Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He,[Al-Fil 105:3] flocks, meaning they were the cranes. Each bird had three stones: one in its beak and two in its feet, with a stone in each foot. When they reached the middle of the people, they rained stones upon them. The stone would crack the head of the disbeliever and come out of his rear, until Allah destroyed them in their place. None of them escaped. [Al-Fil 105:1]? [Al-Fil 105:2-5] This year was called the Year of the Elephant, and it is the year in which the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was born. So he was born in the Year of the Elephant, peace and blessings be upon him.
And the Qarmatians, likewise, what did they do? They killed the pilgrims in the Sacred Mosque and killed them at 'Arafah. They took the Black Stone to a Ka'bah they built called al-Ka'ibah and placed it there. It remained there for more than twenty years, more than twenty years, until Allah returned it to the Ka'bah. This is what the Shi'ah and the Rafidah did to the sanctuary of Allah, Mighty and Majestic. But these are the Shi'ah Houthis, Rafidah Shi'ah, so they are on the legacy of their fathers, and Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, is watching over them. Yes.

Have you not considered, [O Muhammad], how your Lord dealt with the companions of the elephant?
أَلَمْ تَرَ كَيْفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِأَصْحَابِ الْفِيلِThis King of Abyssinia came with a great elephant to demolish the Ka'bah, but Allah prevented him. Then Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He,
And He sent against them birds in flocks,
وَأَرْسَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ طَيْرًا أَبَابِيلَHave you not considered, [O Muhammad], how your Lord dealt with the companions of the elephant?
أَلَمْ تَرَ كَيْفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِأَصْحَابِ الْفِيلِ(2) Did He not make their plan into misguidance? (3) And He sent against them birds in flocks, (4) Striking them with stones of hard clay, (5) And He made them like eaten straw.
أَلَمْ يَجْعَلْ كَيْدَهُمْ فِي تَضْلِيلٍ وَأَرْسَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ طَيْرًا أَبَابِيلَ تَرْمِيهِم بِحِجَارَةٍ مِّن سِجِّيلٍ فَجَعَلَهُمْ كَعَصْفٍ مَّأْكُولٍAnd the Qarmatians, likewise, what did they do? They killed the pilgrims in the Sacred Mosque and killed them at 'Arafah. They took the Black Stone to a Ka'bah they built called al-Ka'ibah and placed it there.
