Question

And what is your view on governments like Saudi Arabia which imprisoned these two scholars, and thousands more, who speak the truth and call towards implementing Shariah? Jazakallahu khair.

Answer

It is not possible for us to comment on the persons in reference as we do not know them.

However, if the government of Saudia Arabia punishes innocent people, they will be guilty of committing a crime of oppression which is a major sin.
