Khalid Al-Asqalani

Rather Misguided - A Response to Tijani Samawi's Then I was Guided Khalid Al-Asqalani

Fabrications and Contradictions; these have been two of the most resourceful tools in the Sh??ah box of tricks. Many neatly crafted propaganda books were brought into circulation during the past century. These books include Peshawar Nights, al-Mur?ja??t and Thumma Ihtadaytu (Then I was guided) by Mu?ammad T?j?n? Sam?w?.


T?j?n? retells his journey of enlightenment which ultimately led to his 'guidance' to the faith of the R?fi?ah. This fantasy tale serves as the tapestry into which his criticisms against ?a??bah have been carefully woven. The lies and forgery which constitutes the bulk of his book have been patched over by empty claims of objectivity and impartiality. The success of this book has been phenomenal which resulted in it being translated into many languages including English. The Ma?ajjah Institute has undertaken to undo the knots in T?j?n?'s work and expose it for the deceit and lies it is. In this regard they have used Kh?lid al-Asqal?n?'s Bal ?alalta as a guideline in their refutation of Then I was guided titled: Rather, Misguided!
