Shaykh Adnan Mohammed al-Aroor (Arabic: الشيخ عدنان محمد العرعور, born 1948) is a Salafi[2] scholar from Hama, Syria.
[3] al-Aroor appears regularly on TV stations in Saudi Arabia, including the widely watched satellite channel al-Safa, where he is known for his programs criticizing non-Salafi Islamic majorities fighting with the government.
[4][5] According to The Economist: "Those who tuned in to Mr Arour's weekly show were attracted less by his Sunni triumphalism than by his theatrical appeals for all Syrians to rise and fight, something opposition intellectuals in exile neglected to do.
Aroor fled Syria after losing support due to extremist salafist views which promoted sectarian hatred and genocide.
