Ali Hussain Sibat is a Lebanese national and former host of the popular call-in show that aired on satellite TV across the Middle East. On the show - described as "a Middle Eastern psychic hot line" by one source - he made predictions and gave advice to the audience. He is perhaps most famous outside of Lebanon for his arrest in Saudi Arabia on charges of "sorcery" in May 2008 while traveling to perform the Umrah pilgrimage. Sibat was sentenced to execution by beheading. Following pressure on the Saudi government by the Lebanese government and human rights groups, he was released by the Saudi Supreme Court. ==Family and career== Ali Hussain Sibat, a Shi'ite Muslim, is the father of four (other reports say five) children. Prior to his arrest, he lived with his family in the eastern Lebanese village al-Ain. His wife, Samira Rahmoon, is a Sunni Muslim.〔 From Beirut, Sibat hosted a popular call-in show, ''The Hidden'', that aired across the Middle East on the satellite TV channel ''Sheherazade''. On the show Sibat earned US$700 a month predicting the future, giving advice to his audience, casting spells and reciting incantations. According to one source, Sibat was no longer on television but was earning a living as a less-than-affluent truck driver at the time of his Umra. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ali Hussain Sibat」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
