Muslims must wrest control of the Haramayn from the clutches of Bani Saud. They are unfit to administer the affairs of Hajj says this reader.

Can any regime, regardless of its position, power, or prestige deny Muslims the right to perform Hajj when Allah (swt) has mandated it as an obligation for those that have the means to perform it? This is what Bani Saud have done vis-à-vis the Iranian hujjaj. The Saudi regime has placed insurmountable hurdles for Iranians planning to perform Hajj. The Ka‘bah is not the personal property of Bani Saud. Muslims must wrest control of Makkah and Madinah from their clutches.
