MOUNT ARAFAT: In his annual sermon, top Saudi cleric Sheikh Abdulaziz al-Sheikh urged Muslims to avoid divisions, chaos and sectarianism, without explicitly speaking of the turmoil unleashed by the Arab Spring.
Your nation is a trust with you. You must safeguard its security, stability and resources, the cleric, who heads Saudi Arabias highest religious body, said in an address to the Muslim world.
You should know that you are targeted by your enemy who wants to spread chaos among you Its time to confront this.
He did not speak specifically of Syria, where Saudi backed rebels are at war with a regime supported by Iran and Hezbollah.
But the cleric recalled the Islamic prohibition of killing and aggression, while insisting there is no salvation or happiness for the Muslim nation without adhering to the teachings of the religion.
