Yasser Al-Habib is one of the most popular and richest Cleric who was born on January 20, 1979 in Kuwait. Sheikh claims that he only teaches Islam as it was and should have been, something that was historically disrupted by Sunnis, Iran, and especially the Khamenei.
His imprisonment was stopped in 2004 at the National Day of the country, but his rearrest was ordered just a few days later. He fled to Iran, Iraq and then back to the country. He then fled to London, where Seyed Mojtaba Shirazi Hosseini Shirazi (the younger brother of Sadiq) has lived for 40 years. He was finally granted asylum in Britain.
In October 2010, Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei tried to calm tensions between Shias and Sunnis by issuing a fatwa against insulting Muhammad’s companions and wives.
In September 2010, Sheikh Yasser al-Habib angered the Sunni Muslims by calling Aisha, “an enemy of God” which led Kuwait to revoke his citizenship accusing him of trying to stir up discord among Muslims.
Unknown individuals abducted him from a Kuwait City street in the afternoon of 30/11/2003 and took him away in an unmarked car. His family was not told that he was being held by security forces until the next day. Al-Habib was arrested for allegedly recording an audio cassette of a lecture that he delivered to a group of between 10 and 20 people in an enclosed environment about Islamic historical issues. Al-Habib’s research relied heavily upon Wahhabi texts and references. This is what is believed to have angered hardline Wahhabi groups, who used their influence to bring the maximum punishment against him. He was sentenced to 10 year imprisonment in Kuwait for “questioning some of the companions’ (the prophet Muhammad)” during a lecture he gave on 20 January 2004. He has been allegedly the victim of several Wahhabi prisoners’ orchestrated attacks on him in prison.
