  • Summary

  • Massin Kevin Labidi, (birth name: Mohamed Karim Labidi), was born in Tunis on August 4, 1966. Raised in a traditional family environment, he experienced the impact of political Islam, which marked the beginning of a significant transformation. Completing his primary education in Tunisia, he later pursued his secondary studies in France. It was during this period that he embraced Shiism before embarking on journeys to Iran and Syria for theological and historical studies. Subsequently, Labidi became involved in the Iranian Shiite political movement. Eventually freeing himself from this influence, he continued his mystical explorations by traveling to various countries in search of knowledge. Under the guidance of Sufi masters, he furthered his studies and developed his own philosophical belief: "Everyone is the master of oneself; no one is the master of others."
