High Costs and Basic Needs of Muslims
Qaani pointed out Saudi Arabia's $10 billion expenditure in the Yemen war and posed challenging questions: "What answer will you have before God tomorrow?" He stated that many Muslim children need the most basic necessities of life and urged Saudi Arabia to allocate these resources to help these individuals instead of spending them on war. General Qaani emphasized: "Why don’t you go to their aid? Why are you spending this budget against your Muslim brothers?"
