Three members of Tajdeed, a Shia cultural and religious organization in Bahrain, are to be put on trial for allegedly questioning the foundations of Islam, a move that is further deepening divisions between the country’s Shia majority and its ruling Sunni royal family. Two of the accused persons were identified as Reda Rajab, the organization’s president, and Jalal al-Qassab, a researcher for the association. The organization uploaded a series of videos on YouTube that have angered several prominent Shia clerics in the Shia-majority country. The videos were considered as an attack on Islam and called on believers to ostracize them. Tajdeed responded, via a statement, that the organization doesn’t question the Quran and the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad. Instead, they claim to challenge the opinions of scholars who came after the Prophet Muhammad, including modern-day clerics. "Al-Tajdeed Society will plead to reject the charges against it because it is a charge based on a misunderstanding as a result of a campaign of truncating and distorting the content it broadcasts, which aims, in particular, to sanctify the book of God from invalidation and criticize the illogical interpretations that have been added to it.” the statement read. Bahrain was previously rocked by massive pro-democracy demonstrations led by the Shia majority against the country’s Sunni monarchy during the Arab Spring protests in 2011. With the help of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, Bahraini authorities suppressed the protests with force, although low-level unrest still remains.
