Walid al-Husseini, an author, human
rights activist, and blogger. In October 2010, the Palestinian Authority
arrested him on charges of insulting religious sentiments, violating religious
leaders, and instigating religious, sectarian, and sectarian strife against
Islam through his Facebook pages and blog. His arrest caused angry reactions on
an international level.
On October 16, 2010, the New York
Times wrote: “The case has brought attention to thorny issues such as freedom
of expression, as the Palestinian Authority still considers harsh criticism of
religion as a crime, which indicates a cultural collision between a
conservative society on the one hand and the Internet.”
his upbringing
Al-Husseini was born in the city of
Qalqilya, in the northern West Bank on June 25, and holds a university degree
in computer science. As a result of unemployment, he helped his father a few
hours a day in the barbershop. Those who knew him at the time described him as
an “ordinary young man” who prayed regularly at the mosque on Fridays.
At the beginning of his twenties, a
young man from Qalqilya spends a lot of time online. When his mother discovered
articles on atheism on his computer, she unsubscribed from the Internet in the
hope that he would renounce his views. However, Walid Al-Husseini took the
initiative to frequent the local Internet café, where he used to spend hours on
the net while secluded in a corner.
Posting under the name Walid
al-Husayni on his Facebook pages and personal blog, al-Husayni, as reported by
The New York Times, "has enraged Muslims in the blogosphere as he defends
atheism, mocks Quranic verses with disdain and criticizes the life of the
Prophet Muhammad while chatting online under the name God Almighty: “God
Almighty.” They also accused him of claiming divinity. Walid al-Husseini
described the god of Islam as “a primitive Bedouin and an anthropomorphic God.”He wrote about the Prophet Muhammad as “obsessed with sex,” as he penetrated
and transcended everything that was classified as known in his time, “to
satisfy his desires and instincts.” Considering that Muhammad was no different
from the “tramp bandit who slaughters, robs and rapes women.” In an article
entitled “Why did you leave Islam” and published it on his first blog, “Nour
Al-Aql”, Walid Al-Husseini wrote that Muslims “believe that all those who
abandon Islam are only They are agents or spies working for Western countries,
including Israel... They do not yet acknowledge the freedom of every person to
believe what suits his convictions." Al-Husseini insisted on emphasizing
that this does not mean that Christianity or Judaism is better than Islam, but
rather that all religions are nothing but "a mixture of incredible myths,
all in competition for the highest degrees of stupidity." Al-Husseini
rejected the argument that Islam is a religion of tolerance, social justice and
equality. He also criticized Islam's treatment of women and its impediment to
human creativity, and questioned the alleged scientific miracles in the Qur'an.
The Facebook groups created by Al-Husseini published hundreds of angry comments
and death threats and sparked the creation of more than a dozen Facebook groups
opposed to him. At its peak, his blog in Arabic attracted more than 70,000
visitors per week.
