Ruling on religion Imam Yahya was an imam like his predecessors among the imams in their early and long reigns. The nature of the justifying judgment of religion and descent was based on absolute individualism leading to tyranny. There was no government or institutions of government. The imams considered the people to be in the service of them, the imams and rulers of the Muslims, who were chosen by Allah.

Yahya bin Muhammad Hamid ad-Din and his son Ahmad bin Yahya created a kingdom there much as the kings of England and France had done centuries earlier. The two imams strengthened the state and secured its borders. They used the imamate to insulate Yemen and claimed that was for the protection of Yemen, whereas they only cared for the rule. Yemen under the two imams seemed almost frozen in time. Opposition to the Rule of Imams a small but increasing number of Yemenis became aware of the contrast between an autocratic society they saw as stagnant and the political and economic modernization occurring in other parts of the world. This produced an important chain of events: the birth of the nationalist Free Yemeni Movement in the mid-1940s, an aborted 1948 revolution in which Imam Yahya was killed, a failed 1955 coup against Imam Ahmad, and finally, the 1962 revolution in which the recently enthroned imam Muhammad al-Badr was deposed by a group of nationalist officers and the Yemen Arab Republic (YAR) was proclaimed under the leadership of Abdullah al-Sallal. It is important to mention that Gamal Abd El Nasser, president of Egypt, was a prominent supporter of the Yemeni revolution at that time. Disclosure of the system’s flaws The first secret political organisation in 1940 was formed in Cairo and was named “Yemeni Youth Battalion”. It was founded by Rasheed Ali Hareeri, Muhammad Ali Al-Gaafary, Muhammad Al-Zobeiry and others. Their goal was to push the opposition inside Yemen. After about two years, the foundation could put clear claims as The Committee for the Promotion of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice was issued and proposed to the imam Yahia and then to his heir, imam Siaf Al-Islam Ahmad, and were refused by both of them. The imams started chasing the opposition symbols and threatened them. However the opposition continued to disclose the flaws of the system and clarifying its tardiness in comparison with other countries. 1948 Movement Also refered to as the Constitution Revolution or The Alwaziri coup. During the coup attempt, Imam Yahya Muhammad Hamid ed-Din, the ruler of the kingdom, was killed and the rival Sayyid family, the The Yemeni Revolution -1962 Page: 2 https://almoheet.net/yemeni-revolution-1962/ ﻣﻮﺳﻮﻋﺔ اﻟﻤﺤﻴﻂ .ﻣﻨﺼﺔ إﻟﺘﺮوﻧﻴﺔ ﻟﻨﺸﺮ اﻟﻤﻠﻔﺎت اﻟﺮﻗﻤﻴﺔ واﻟﻤﻘﺎﻻت اﻟﻤﻮﺳﻮﻋﻴﺔ، ﺑﺎﻟﺘﻌﺎون ﻣﻊ اﻟﻤﺴﺘﺨﺪﻣﻴﻦ Alwazirs, seized power for several weeks. Backed by the al-Saud family of Saudi Arabia, the Hamidaddins restored their rule. After deposition of the Alwaziris, the restored monarchy of Imam Yahya was succeeded by his son Ahmad bin Yahya. Imam Yahya was shot by an assassin on 17 February 1948. The assassin, known as Al-Qardaei, was from the Bani Murad tribe. The Alwaziris then installed their own Imam Abdullah bin Ahmad al-Wazir to run the kingdom - which lasted for several weeks. Thalaya Movement Imam Ahmad bin Yahya inherited the Yemeni throne in 1948. In 1955, Iraq-trained Colonel Ahmad Thalaya led a revolt against him. A group of soldiers under his command surrounded the royal palace of Al Urdhi at Taiz, a fortified stronghold where the Imam lived and demanded Ahmad's abdication. Ahmad agreed, but demanded that his son, Muhammad al-Badr succeed him. Thalaya refused, preferring the king's half brother, the Emir Saif el Islam Abdullah, the 48-year-old Foreign Minister. While Abdullah began forming a new government, Ahmad opened the treasury coffers and secretly began buying off the besieging soldiers. After five days, the number of besiegers was reduced from 600 to 40. Ahmad then came out of the palace, wearing a devil's mask and wielding a long scimitar, terrifying the besiegers. He slashed two sentries dead before exchanging the sword for a sub-machine gun and leading his 150 guards onto the roof of the palace to begin a direct attack on the rebels. After 28 hours, 23 rebels and one palace guard were dead and Thalaya gave up. Abdullah was later reported executed, and Thalaya was publicly decapitated. outbreak of the revolution Secret political parties continued to spread among Yemenis. In 1961, some officers shared in preparing for the war, as they claimed the end of the Imami system. The Yemeni revelation started on 26th of September 1962.

The relevant literature links emigration to states’ developmental needs, which does not explain why some states choose to economically subsidize their citizens’ emigration. This article explores for the first time the soft power importance of high-skilled emigration from authoritarian emigration states. It finds that the Egyptian state under Gamal Abdel Nasser employed labor emigration for two distinct purposes linked to broader soft power interests: first, as an instrument of cultural diplomacy to spread revolutionary ideals of Arab unity and anti-imperialism across the Middle East; second, as a tool for disseminating development aid, particularly in Yemen and sub-Saharan Africa. Drawing on Arabic and non-Arabic primary sources, the article identifies the interplay between foreign policy and cross-border mobility, while also sketching an evolving research agenda on authoritarian emigration states’ policy-making. Keywords Soft power, diasporas, Egypt, Middle East, authoritarianism, migration, case study, Arab–Israeli conflict Introduction Can labor emigration serve a state’s foreign policy goals? In particular, how do authoritarian states use labor emigration in their foreign policy-making? The emerging academic literature on the poli- tics of international migration has yet to fully explore this phenomenon as a separate field of inquiry.

  • Eastward Drift of Arabs and Iranians
    Schwanitz Report Review Article 30 September 2015, 1-9 Updated Webversion 9-2015 Eastward Drift of Arabs and Iranians Ferris on Soviet Arabs, American Arabs, and Islamists in the Cold War It should have taken five weeks, but it lasted five years. Yet, Abd an-Nasir's intervention in Arabia's North Yemen—the South of which was in British hands, and securing access to the Sues Canal played a major role in all considerations—didn't come out of the blue. In his first book, Jesse Ferris wants to show how Egyptian troops in Yemen became a part of president Abd an-Nasir's defeat by Israel in the war of June 1967. He uncovers how the interven- tion accelerated the demise of Nasirism. Most recently, all of this became popular in Cairo again. A civilian-military axis deposed the "Muslim Brotherhood's president," Muhammad Mursi, in the 2013 "coupvolt," a merger of coup d'état and revolt. The new "1/3 Sues Canal" was finished a year later. And the Egyptians debated sending troops to Yemen to help the Sunni Saudi coalition, and Cairo guards with its navy ships the Bab al-Mandab to stop Shia Iranian deliveries of weapons in the battles against the al-Huthis. Suez Canal Authority Press Ismailia In this light the author, who works at the Israel Democracy Institute of Jerusalem, wrote a highly topical book. I will name the chapters, discuss the key thesis and add notes, also on basic German insights which may lead to a more global view on the research and methods.

  • Understanding Yemen: Geography, Conflict and Transformations
    Understanding Yemen: Geography, Conflict and Transformations Amman – Jordan 7 March 2018 Understanding Modern Yemen: Introduction North Yemen gained independence in 1918 at the end of the Ottoman rule, while the last British soldier left South Yemen in 1967. In 1962, a revolutionary movement, civil war and wide-scale regional intervention put an end to the rule of Imam Muhammad al-Badr bin Ahmad bin Yahya Hamidaddin. Until 1990, North Yemen was known as the Yemen Arab Republic, while South Yemen as the People’s Democratic Republic of Yemen. The two sides fought bloody battles between 1972 and 1979. Unification was announced on 22 May 1990, but tensions prevailed and civil war erupted in 1994. Between 2004 and 2010, the Republic of Yemen witnessed six local wars. Protests erupted again in 2011 during the Arab Spring uprisings, which led to an agreement headed by the Gulf Cooperation Council in 2012 that attempted to set new grounds for managing the country, reinstating stability and dividing power. Instability returned in 2014 following the conflict between the government and the Ansar Allah movement known as the Houthis. For decades Yemen has suffered from instability, denying the country development and modernization. Its human development indicators are considered among the worst in the world in various areas, while the civil strife, and specifically the current conflict, exacerbated the humanitarian suffering, specifically in terms of refugees and displaced persons, the spread of disease and the condition of children and women. Page 1 of 2 Symposium’s Objectives The symposium sought to provide JMI students, media professionals, researchers and opinion leaders in Jordan with a greater understanding of the situation in Yemen in an academic and objective manner.

ABSTRACT: In Yemen,Al-Zaidiyyah stipulates of imam will be a scholar, ascetic, courageous, generous. However, it made deviating from the imam a legitimate matter if it is proven that he is unfair and violates the Sharia.Or that a more qualified person demanded the position.Al-Zaidiyyahalso permitted the existence of two legitimate imams at the same time, if their respective spheres of influence are far enough apart. This opened the door to continuous wars between those claiming the Imamate and the Crown Prince, with the sanctification of these wars on the basis that they are essential to defend the faith, and based on that Sharia rule. The system followed by the Yemenis, until the reign of Imam Yahya bin Hamid al-Din (1904-1948). That the people of the solution and the contract meet at the death of the imam to choose a new imam. Those who meet the conditions of the Imamate. Whether he was the son of the deceased imam or someone else. However, the work of that system was abolished after Yemen became a powerful and powerful country.Imam Yahya sought to appoint his eldest son, Prince Ahmed, as heir fearing that the death of the Imam brings about, without having a known crown prince, of unpredictable troubles and afflictions.

  • As-Sunnah Az-Zaidiya Ash-Shiyah
    Yaqoub Al-Ateeqi As-Sunnah Az-Zaidiya Ash-Shiyah Editura Golden PREFAŢĂ Slavă lui Allah, Stăpânitorul lumilor! Binecuvântarea şi pacea lui Allah fie asupra celei mai bune creaţii ale Sale, ultimul dintre trimişii Săi, profetul Muhammad şi asupra companionilor săi, cei care sunt purtătorii muncii sale şi păstrătorii tradiţiilor sale! Islamul este credinţă (aqida) şi lege (şari'ah). Credinţa este credinţa în Allah, în trimişii Săi, în cărţile Sale şi în Viaţa de Apoi, iar legea reprezintă prescripţiile divine care îi garantează omenirii cea mai bună viaţă şi îi aduc fericirea în viaţa aceasta pământească şi în Viaţa de Apoi. Legea islamică s-a distins prin universalitate şi prin oferirea de soluţii la toate problemele pe care le întâmpină omul în toate aspectele vieţii. Totuşi există probleme subsidiare asupra cărora juriştii teologi nu au căzut de acord, având opinii diferite în legătură cu relatările ce îi sunt atribuite Profetului (Pacea şi binecuvântarea - 3- lui Allah fie asupra sa!), fapt ce a generat apariţia unor interpretări diferite. Întrucât adevărul a fundamentat cercetarea, am încercat în lucrarea de faţă, în limita posibilului, să aduc câteva adăugiri simple. S-ar putea ca această lucrare să fie un posibil mijloc de unificare a interpretărilor şi de dezvoltare a cercetărilor în acest domeniu. Iar diferenţa de opinii existentă în raport cu aceste aspecte nu reprezintă o dispută asupra esenţei religiei şi a fundamentelor sale şi de aceea nu trebuie să trezească ostilitate.
