Dr. Ali al-Timimi’s Request for Dua’ & Address to Write
ShareBr. Kashif sent us the following email, stating that “[He] received a letter from Ali al-Timimi recently. I [Kashif] wanted to share the closing paragraph with you”:
“Please forward my salaams to everyone & encourage them to keep me in their prayers. Things are winding up for me here in Alexandria and we might have a final decision in May, wAllahu a’lam. And our hope and trust remains with Allah ta’ala alone.”
I would urge all brothers and sisters to make your deepest dua’s for Dr. Ali, in hoping for justice and fairness. I also urge his supporters to write to him, because letters are a window to the world for prisoners. May Allah release him to his family and to all the Muslims.

May Allah return our beloved brother back to us, so that his family can have their husband/father/son again, and his community can have their teacher again, and his Ummah can have their dynamic thinker again. Ameen
ameen.. the more i listen to his lectures, the more i feel like we really lost out
may Allah(swt) free him and grant him Jannatul Firdaws.
Ameen, thumma ameen… may Allah grant him the strength and patience to get through this ordeal, ameen!
Ali Tamimi is one awesome brother, masha’Allah. I was blessed to meet him and get to talk with him up close and personal waaaay back in 1997 at the IANA conference, and what did I ask him?
“How long do I have to grow my beard?”
I continue to follow what I learned from him, and others, on that topic
Siraaj
Can someone explain to me what happened with the Shaikh? Why is he in jail?

bismillah. jazak Allah khayr for the link to the article. i was looking for more information here on Muslim Matters and could not find it. also, the link for Kashif needs updating:
bismillah. now that i have finished the article, it’s last words ring loudly:
if the jury is still out on that question, it is only because it hangs its head in shame. there is no doubt that Muslims do not receive equal protection under the law during government prosecutions. but perhaps, the persecution of the system, especially in this case, will be somewhat remedied by appeal. and the best appeal is to Allah, for His Intercession cannot be denied. may Allah grant the shaykh and his family salaam in this life, and His Mercy in this life and in the Hereafter.
May Allah keep Dr Tamimi safe and provide him with justice. Ameen. WaAllahu khairulMakireen.
What a great injustice has been done to this man!
May Allah subhanna wa ta’ala give him patience and free him from prison. Ameen.
May Allah swt bring justice to his situation and peace and patience to his mind, and get him outta there! The Ummah, especially in the West, needs someone like him!
Jazack Allahuu Kahir for posting this. Does anyone know how you can donate to his defense fund…
May Allah bless us all… Ameen!
Ameen to all the du’aas.
Abu Yasmeen, check freeali.org for donating.
Jazack Allahuu Kahir mkhalifa! Last time I went to FreeAli.org it appeared abandoned, so I wasn’t sure of it’s status. Now it looks very active.. Mashaa Allah.
Here is another update from Shaikh Yusuf Estes
http://www.islamnewsroom.com/content/view/168/28/
This was posted for the first time last year.
I think the date may have changed because it was reposted recently.
May Allah hasten his release and bring back this man of knowledge so we can benefit from him. Ameen.
Jazak Allahu Khairan
and Thanks for the Update,
May Allah ease his trials and grant him Jennah!
salamualaikum
Jazakallah khairan for sharing this message from our dear brother and sheikh Ali. May Allah protect our brother in the circumstances he is in. I also feel we are without one of the best orators of the deen in the english language, that I have heard. We love him and miss his speech so much. May Allah lift the ummah out of this injustice and protect our brothers and sisters being held in captivity only because they profess the shahada– Ameen.
May Allah azza wa jall keep Dr. Ali safe and grant him a fair trial, which we are sure will lead to his release.
