Summary

I am Majed El Shafie, raised in a Muslim family in Alexandria, Egypt, until the Bible’s message of grace led me to accept Jesus as my Lord 🙏. Arrested on August 15, 1998, I endured horrific torture—shaved heads, water torture, dogs—and yet felt God’s presence in the darkness 💡. I miraculously escaped across Sinai to Israel and later found refuge in Canada 🇨🇦. Now, I’ve founded One Free Word International, turning my scars into a mission for religious freedom and hope for persecuted believers worldwide 🌍.

Majed El Shafie endured what most of us can’t imagine — beaten, broken, and left to die, simply because he chose to believe in Jesus and freedom of religion.

But his story didn’t end in darkness. It became a light for others still trapped in silence. Every scar Majed carries holds a memory of pain, but also a promise: to fight for those who cannot fight for themselves.

This is not just a story of survival; it’s a story of purpose. Witness the inspiring journey of a man who turned his pain into a global mission for human rights and religious freedom.

Watch now — and discover how one person found hope when there was none left — and used that hope to change the world.
