Case Summary: Beji published an excerpt of an essay he wrote entitled, "The Illusion of Islam" online. His stated intention was to show “the ugly face of Islam”. Majri posted photos from Beji's book depicting the Prophet of Islam to his Facebook page. Foued Sheikh Zaouali filed an official complaint to the Attorney General who then took up the case. They were both convicted and sentenced to imprisonment and fines, for causing harm to the sacred values of Islam and division between Muslims under Article 121(3) of the Penal Code.
