This swift decision has sparked widespread political and human rights criticism, particularly as it comes amid Lebanon&#8217;s severe internal crises, with accusations against the government for compromising its sovereignty to serve political and economic interests.<\/p>\n<p>According to informed sources, Al-Qaradawi was handed over to Abu Dhabi after a private jet arrived at Beirut airport just hours after the decision was made. This incident highlights the UAE\u2019s growing influence within Lebanese institutions.<\/p>\n<p>The pressure exerted by Mohammed bin Zayed on caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati\u2014who aspires to run for the Lebanese presidency\u2014played a crucial role, with promises of future political and financial support in exchange for complying with the UAE\u2019s request.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10601\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10601\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10601 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/ben-zayed.jpg\" alt=\"The UAE human rights violations\" width=\"1200\" height=\"733\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/ben-zayed.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/ben-zayed-300x183.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/ben-zayed-1024x625.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/ben-zayed-768x469.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10601\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mohammed bin Zayed<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Despite Al-Qaradawi having committed no crime other than expressing his opinions and criticisms of the Egyptian and Emirati regimes, Lebanese authorities acted swiftly to arrest and extradite him, bypassing all legal and human rights considerations.
