The Mufti described this detail as something inappropriate and absurd that no one would accept, wondering whether HoR members heard about the agreement that Haftar and his family signed in Moscow with the Russian President, and adding that he was sure that many of them had not heard about it. He added, saying that Haftar had no objection because he previously stated that what the Egyptians and Al-Sisi were doing was acceptable to him even if it was contrary to the interests of Libya. They fought as mercenaries to whom Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates pay money, but now they are soldiers and organized forces belonging to the state with an aircraft and air defense agreement and naval and air bases." The Mufti indicated that HoR members were only able to enact laws that had been forbidden by Islamic law and issue a law granting the right to a person with foreign citizenship from a non-Muslim country to rule a Muslim country which is forbidden. He also addressed the members of HoR, saying, “The issue is that of loyalty and innocence, faith and lack of faith, so how could you enact this law that is forbidden by Islamic law, a criminal law that is not permissible to be enacted."
