Faith Freedom International (FFI) is a website that is critical of Islam. FFI identifies itself as "a grassroots worldwide movement of ex-Muslims and all those who are concerned about the rise of the Islamic threat". According to the website, FFI was founded by an Iranian ex-Muslim residing in Canada, going by the pseudonym of "Ali Sina." On the website, Ali Sina has issued a standing challenge that he will remove the FFI website if proven wrong on a number of issues.

Faith Freedom International is listed by Richard Dawkins in the Appendix of his book, The God Delusion, as one of the few Islamic related "friendly address, for individuals needing support in escaping from religion" (although it was removed from the website following protest from other ex-Muslims). FFI's mission statement is included in Ibn Warraq's book Leaving Islam: Apostates Speak Out. According to Internet Infidels, "Faith Freedom International echoes the voice of Muslim dissidents that strive for freedom of faith and freedom from faith in Islamic countries."

Website access and traffic

According to a 2002 study by professor Jonathan Zittrain and Benjamin Edelman of Harvard University, Saudi Arabia had banned the website. Ranking.com and Alexa list faithfreedom.org among the top 35,000 and 45,000 websites, respectively, as measured by traffic as of January 2012.

Alleged deaths threats and hacking attempts

Ali Sina claims to have received death threats from Muslims- two imams in India have offered a reward of USD 20,000 (or 1 million Rupees) for anyone who kills Sina. The site itself has been hacked and subject to DDOS attacks several times since the website opened 12 years ago, most recently in January 2010.
