Muhibb-ud-Deen Al-Khatib
Muhibb ud-Din al-Khateeb (or Muhibb al-Din al-Khatib) (died 1969)[1] was a Syrian Salafi writer.[2][3] He was the maternal uncle of Ali al-Tantawi[4] and was the author of the "hate filled" anti-Shia pamphlet entitled al-Khutoot al-‘Areedah (The broad lines of the foundations upon which the religion of the Imami Twelver Shiites is based).[5] He has been described as "one of the most influential anti-Shiite polemicists of the twentieth century."[6]
In 1916, he was made the editor of al-Qibla, the official newspaper of Sharif Hussein.[7]
