Extremists Threaten YouTuber for Speaking Out After Leaving Islam ft. Apostate Aladdin ​

Extremists Threaten YouTuber for Speaking Out After Leaving Islam ft. Apostate Aladdin ​

@ApostateAladdin grew up in Saudi Arabia which is a Muslim majority country with strict laws originating from Islam. After going abroad to college, he recognized his learned racism, bigotry and bias was a direct reflection of the religion he was raised in. A deep dive into the theology, history and hadiths made him question everything, including his own ethics. He details how research and deep critical thinking led him to leave Islam behind, and what the consequences are of speaking out on his YouTube channel.
