RNA - In an attempt to assassinate al-Muhaysini, a suicide bomber blew up himself beside al-Muhaysini's car near Abuzar Qaffari Mosque in Idlib city center, but the mufti of Tahrir al-Sham Hay'at escaped death while his bodyguard was killed.

 

Nine other members of the Tahrir al-Sham Hay'at were also wounded in the assassination attempt.

 

Since al-Muhaysini was in a bullet-proof vehicle he escaped death.

 

Other reports indicate that al-Muhaysini has been wounded.

 

In a relevant development earlier in June, al-Muhaysini escaped death in an assassination attempt which injured him.

 

News websites affiliated to the opposition groups reported that the car carryiENA ng al-Muhaysini came under attack near Ma'arat al-Numan in Idlib and he received a bullet in his foot.

 

According to the report, he was treated in a nearby hospital.

 

Meantime, al-Muhaysini said that he was injured in the shoulder during clashes between Tahrir al-Sham Hay'at and Faylaq al-Sham at a checkpoint in Idlib.

 

News websites affiliated to the terrorist groups disclosed last week that civilians in a town in Southern Idlib forced al-Muhaysini to leave their town.

 

The websites reported last Saturday that people in the town of Jarjnaz did not allow al-Muhaysini to preach the Friday prayers' sermon and fired him from their town.

 

In early January, social media pages affiliated to the opposition groups started trending Hashtag (#) against al-Muhaysini, accusing him of promoting ISIL's ideology among other militants.

 

The social media activists accused him as a promoter of ISIL thoughts under #Al-Muhaysini Did Enough to Destroy Our Revolution.

 

The activists said al-Muhaysini financed Fatah al-Sham Front (previously known as the al-Nusra Front), but ignored the groups' continued aggressions against militant groups affiliated to the Free

Syrian Army.

 

They also accused al-Muhaysini of keeping mum on Jund al-Aqsa's brutal crimes.

 

Media sources disclosed in mid-December that the ISIL terrorist group offered a half-a-million dollar reward for any one that could assassinate al-Muhaysini.

 

The Arabic language al-Nashra news agency quoted sources privy to ISIL as saying that the Takfiri terrorist group in a statement offered a sum of $ 500,000 reward for the killer of Muhaysini, the Saudi national Mufti of Jeish al-Fatah.

 

The ISIL released Muhaysini's photo and his full name, Abdullah Bin Muhammad Bin Suleiman al-Muhaysini, underling in the statement that Muhaysini was in Idlib.

 

In August, al Muhaysini once again acknowledged alarming widening rifts among the militants in Aleppo.

 

"The differences have gone to the extremes," Muhaysini was quoted as saying by Oqat al-Sham news agency at the time.

 

He called for banishing the terrorist groups which were sowing differences among militants in Aleppo, and said, "We are not under such conditions to be envied by others given the growing rifts."
