Prominent Islamic Scholar Sheikh Suleiman Dweesh has died under torture in a Saudi Arabian jail, AlKhaleejonline.com reported on Tuesday. According to a twitter account which documents and reports news of political detainees in the Kingdom, the Sheikh was arrested on 22 April, 2016.

The fact that the full details of the treatment to which Sheikh Dweesh was exposed suggests that it was extremely inhumane. He was arrested less than a day after posting critical comments about Crown Prince Mohammad Bin Salman on social media.

Ever since he was appointed as Crown Prince, Bin Salman has had thousands of political and religious opposition figures arrested. They include hundreds of Sharia scholars, intellectuals and prominent Sheikhs and university professors.

Bin Salman has also criticised Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International and other rights groups which have condemned his crackdown on freedom of expression in Saudi Arabia. Such groups have called for the release of Saudis detained for opposing the de facto leader of the country.

Very Sad state of affairs. Shah Faisal was a good and honest king.

Indeed many ulama are silent either because of being deluded or for fear. Shuraym has had his twitter account suspended in april also it appears.

The way forward is to confront them publicly, like the algerian brother did in Switzerland versus al-Sudays.

We muslims living in the west should use the freedom of speech provided here to protest actively, at least via the social medias, against such abuses. Hashtags are seen by far more people and information goes directly to the governors, alas we muslims cannot come together to organise massive twittstorm against noble causes like emprisonment of 'ulama or chinese abuse against muslims, we just need oranisation by influential muslims who know a few big 'ulama personally and it can do wonders I strongly believe.

this is where i disagree. if someone of likes of dhorats,motolas,limbadas were detained you will see demos and petitions. i remember abt 10yrs back shaikh motala was detained at airport and few yrs ago shaykh farooqui was questioned or arrested and my phone got messages non stop. like or not our scholars and people are very selfish and cultist too. unless its one of their own they couldnt care less

I actually agree with you. We need men/women conscious of Allah and capable of using their 'aql, not emotional no-life fanboys with no personalities whose life resolves around their 'hazrat' or 'shaasaab'.

in the UK shaykh haitham is prob the best when it comes to unity and seeing bigger picture along with his affiliates.

i remember him openly supporting london markus despite being hambali/salafi. many salafis evem denounced him for that but his response was even though we differ with TJs this is a matter of islam and house of Allah. kuffar are not looking at salafi masjid deo masjid. if we let non muslims prevent markus tomorrow it be our masjid.

now compare this to our lot. many deos petition AGAINST london markus. infact TJs loyal to dewsbury were too. brealeis openly joined islamaphobes in voicing concerns against it

on international level sh haitham lot have openly talked abouy the heartbreaking situation of sister aafia siddiqie but i be lying if i said i heard any of our lot even make dua for her.

Latest news as can be seen on twitter :

-shaykh abd al aziz al turayfi is being transferred into hospital care of al ha'ir prison because of poor health condition/torture, the shaykh is emprisoned from 2 years
-5 years of prison are required against shaykh Muhammad Moosa al shareef
-Shaykh al Arifi is barred from giving khutba and duroos, he has said nothing against the aali saoods, but probably that he has not been too vocal in support of these bedouins

May Allah put an end to this dynasty
