 I think there can be no doubt that Osama is an idiot. I read his silly paper some time ago in which he used the most absurd types of arguments to deny the existence of magic, deny the authentic hadith, only to foolishly conclude that the Prophet (SAW) suffered from memory-loss! His stupid arugments, that he so arrogantly and proudly displayed on his website, no doubt, shocked everyone with some senses. So, after embarassing himself with his stupidity, now he writes:
"The Hadith in question in this article, says that the Prophet was bewitched from a Jew who took a piece of his hair, put it on a comb, and hid it under a rock. I initially claimed that either the Hadith is partial or that Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, might have suffered from memory-loss as he became an old man, when he thought that he just slept with one of his wives when he didn't. People might have thought that the Prophet got bewitched from magic. It seems from the new evidence that I was clearly wrong, and I apologize for the mistake and I ask Allah Almighty for forgiveness! "

This moron didn't even know that magic was acknowledged within the Quran itself and has always been accepted by the scholarly concensus at all times. Osama could not be bothered to properly verify what scholars have to say about magic, what the Quran and the hadith had to say about magic. He just made up a silly argument and immediately advertised it on his website. Despite his apology in this paper, in another paper Osama offers support to the view that the Prophet (SAW) was hypnotised:

So, it seems it is very difficult for him to fully admit his mistake. Osama will try his best to rehash his erroneous views in different guises from time to time. But there is more entertainment. At the very top of the above paper, we find a link which says: "Proofs that Prophet Muhammad was never affected either by magic or hypnotism!" Well, the guy is hopelessly confused and lost. This is how arrogant people embarass themselves as they think they know everything and are above all.
