“He was the one who attacked Islam and attacked their beliefs and beliefs.”
Rashdy spent many years in 1989 after Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatra Luhola Homeini painted a $ 3 million blessings over the Devil's Poetry.
Rashdy began to appear in his independent exile in the 1990s, and then appeared in lectures around the world.

“There is something like PTSD, you know.” I told New Yorker In his first interview after the attack. I felt it was very difficult. When I sit and write, nothing happens. I wrote it, but it's a combination of blank and junk, what I wrote, and what I deleted the next day. “
