Hodeida districts revive Wilaiya Day
Hodeida - Saba:
Bajil District in Hodeida Governorate witnessed a festive festival for the people of the Eastern Districts Square, commemorating the Day of the Wilaiya of Imam Ali (peace be upon him). The festival was held under the slogan "Whoever I am his guardian, then this Ali is his guardian."
The festival, which was attended by members of the House of Representatives and the Shura Council, and the Governor's Deputy for Eastern District Affairs, Amer Muthanna, featured speeches that reviewed the significance of the Day of Guardianship and the importance of preparing the nation to restore its glories, starting from this pivotal moment that laid the foundations for the post-death phase of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family).
The speeches explained that the Day of Guardianship is one of the most important occasions during which everyone must return to the path of Imam Ali and adhere to his guardianship. They noted that the nation must begin to change its paths and reality by embodying divine directives to emerge from the diaspora.
They pointed to the importance of instilling the values of loyalty in accordance with correct Quranic concepts, as a culmination of the great message conveyed by the Noble Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) when he raised the hand of Imam Ali and said, "Whoever I am his guardian, then this Ali is his guardian."
They praised the virtuous example set by Imam Ali (peace be upon him) in his life and his closeness to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family), and his continued carrying of the banner of truth after the death of the Greatest Prophet, in support of Islam and Muslims and in opposition to the forces of falsehood.
The speeches emphasized that the project of guardianship is the impregnable dam that preserves the nation's faith identity and protects it from falling into the quagmires of dependency and deviation. She noted that peoples are only defeated when they lose their loyalty to the axis of guidance and turn away from the beacons of guidance.
They stated that the commemoration of Ghadir gains this momentum because it opens the nation's awareness to the necessity of having a clear faith-based reference that connects the past to the present and builds the future on the foundations of loyalty to Allah, His Messenger, and the beacons of guidance, far removed from dependency on the West and the forces of tyranny. The speeches addressed the principles and values embodied by Imam Ali and their valuable impact on generations, strengthening their intellectual fortification.
They explained that the Day of Ghadir is the day of separation between right and wrong, the day on which the nation distinguished itself from all other nations by its approach to loyalty. They called for drawing inspiration from the lessons of righteous leadership from Imam Ali, peace be upon him.
The festival, which was attended by directors of directorates, local and executive leaders, and social figures, included expressive chants and poems.

Women's Organization in Hajjah holds events commemorating Al-Wilayah Day & solidarity stands with Gaza
Hajjah - Saba: The Women's Organization in Hajjah province organized celebratory events marking the Day of Imam Ali's (AS) Wilayah (Guardianship) and solidarity stands in support of Gaza. During the events and stands held in the districts of Shihah, Mustaba, Kashr, Al-Shahal, Aflah Al-Yemen, Aflah Al-Sham, and Kuhlan Ash-Sharaf, participants chanted slogans of loyalty to Allah, His Messenger (PBUH), and Imam Ali (AS), while disavowing the enemies of Islam. Speeches by participants emphasized that Wilayah is an extension of the Muhammadan message—a mobilizing, educational, and faith-driven milestone to emulate Imam Ali (AS), draw lessons from his life, virtues, and his role in defending Islam. They linked Yemen's suffering from aggression to its unwavering allegiance to Ahl al-Bayt (AS) and support for the oppressed. The speeches stressed the importance of adhering to divine directives and sincere loyalty to the Prophet (PBUH) and Imam Ali (AS), noting that the Muslim Ummah's current humiliation stems from following the enemies of Islam—Jews and Christians—and abandoning the Muhammadan path. Participants reaffirmed absolute commitment to the Palestinian cause as the central issue of the Islamic Ummah, which cannot be compromised. They condemned the Zionist enemy's brutal crimes against civilians in Gaza, emphasizing that these atrocities will not fade with time. A statement issued during the events declared that the principle of Wilayah is the cornerstone preserving the Ummah's dignity, independence, and unity. Abandoning it, the statement warned, leads to subjugation and violation by enemies. It highlighted the urgent need to understand Wilayah through the Quran and the Prophet's (PBUH) guidance, especially in an era of rampant corruption and deception. The statement clarified that the Declaration of Ghadeer is not merely a historical event but a divine proclamation vital to the Ummah's revival and adherence to Islam. The statement strongly condemned the Zionist aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran, which martyred several leaders, scholars, and Mujahideen, exposing the American-backed Zionist hatred toward free voices and noble stances in the Ummah. It affirmed that the Palestinian cause remains inseparable from the Ummah's struggles and vowed unwavering support, including continued humanitarian duty toward Palestinian women and children. The statement called on Arab and Muslim nations to fulfill their responsibilities against the genocide in Gaza, foremost by sustaining economic boycotts. Lastly, the statement renewed allegiance to the revolution leader , Sayyed Abdulmalik Badreddin Al-Houthi, declaring readiness to sacrifice everything for Al-Aqsa Mosque's liberation, regardless of consequences.
