Jalal Tagreeb

Jalal Tagreeb is an East Jordanian freelance researcher and translator who works in the United Kingdom and abroad, specialising in Islamic Studies and History. Formerly rooted in conservative Sunni Islam, he was once an active Muslim apologist who frequently debated secularists. Following a series of decisive intellectual defeats, he undertook a profound re-evaluation of his beliefs, ultimately culminating in his public renunciation of Islam. He now focuses on analysing cultural and ideological contrasts between the West and the Middle East. Through his writings and translations, he aims to foster meaningful dialogue, encourage critical engagement with Islamic tradition, and promote intellectual honesty. His writings, debates, and a selection of his previously refuted Islamic arguments can be found in the pages of the Freethinker. He can be contacted at servantjiff@gmail.com.
