Background

"Born in 1960, al-Ali is married with five children [2] . He was a primary education teacher in Kuwait, where he taught Islamic studies. He studied Sharia (Islamic law) at the Islamic University of Medina from 1979 until 1988, receiving a Masters degree in tafsir (exegesis) and Quranic studies."

"After returning to Kuwait, al-Ali served as a professor of Islamic studies at Kuwait University for several years. He rose to the position of general secretary of al-Harakat al-Salafiyya fil-Kuwait (The Salafi Movement of Kuwait) by 1991, a position he maintained until 1999."

He was arrest and a suspended sentence after published fatwas declaring Kuwait and other governments kuffar (unbelievers) and thus lawful targets for the mujahideen — for supporting non-Islamic countries' aggression against the Muslim world.
