On 8 October, Sabereen News (KH — affiliated/aligned media) and Shabab al-Islam (Ashab al-Kahf — owned/non-official media) alleged that the Association of Muslim Scholars in Iraq issued a religious ruling requiring fighting in Yemen under Saudi Arabia’s banner against the Yemeni people. Both captions used disparaging language about the institution and called Saudi Arabia the enemy; their publications establish the allegation, not the ruling’s authenticity or interpretation.

“The so-called Association of Muslim Scholars in Iraq, headquartered in Jordan, issues a ‘jihad’ fatwa requiring fighting in Yemen under the banner of the Saudi enemy against the Yemeni people.”

The shared criticism concerns an Iraqi institution’s alleged religious endorsement of Saudi-led fighting; it is not a declaration of Iraqi militia participation in Yemen.
