What Kind of Yemen?

The recent history of Yemen, one of the oldest civilizations in the world and described as “Happy Arabia” in ancient times, is filled with wars, coups and political instability. Internal disorder in the country is continuing relentlessly. Today Yemen only reminds people of civil war, suicide attacks, cities devastated by bombardment, hunger and poverty.
Each article in this book tells us of a side of Yemen that is full of anguish and suffering. While reading these lines, you will witness how tribalism, discrimination against women, and the narcotic herb called 'khat' have devastated the country at one time or another, and you will have the opportunity to acquaint yourselves with genuine suggestions that will help alleviate this devastation.
Throughout the book, what happens in Yemen is analyzed based on the tenets of the Qur’an and effective and exact solutions are offered accordingly.
One of our dearest wishes from Almighty God is the reign of peace over the entire world, and a peaceful and prosperous life for the Yemeni people as well as for all Muslims around the world as soon as possible. We do not want Yemen to remind us of suffering, conflict and dissension any more, but to remind us of a country that has achieved happiness, peace and solidarity within itself, and unity with all Muslims.
