Salman Al-Ouda - The Message To Osama Bin Laden

The Message To Osama Bin Laden

Dr. al-Ouda is known for not only criticizing the September 11 attacks, but delivering a personal rebuke to Osama bin Laden. In 2007, around the sixth anniversary of September 11, he addressed Al Qaeda's leader on MBC, a widely watched Middle Eastern television network, asking him:

My brother Osama, how much blood has been spilt? How many innocent people, children, elderly, and women have been killed ... in the name of Al Qaeda? Will you be happy to meet God Almighty carrying the burden of these hundreds of thousands or millions of victims on your back?

The full letter can be viewed on the Islam Today website.

    if once the message greet him
    That his True Love doth stay,
    If Death should come and meet him,
    Love will find out the way!

    Then, if when I have lov’d my round,
    Thou prov’st the pleasant she,
    With spoils of meaner beauties crown’d
    I laden will return to thee,
    Ev’n sated with variety.
