Muslim youth must defend their faith against the “psychotic person in charge” – we must use whatever “weapons” we have, Zohran Mamdani is such a weapon
In a July 6, 2025 lecture at the East Plano Islamic Center (EPIC) in Texas, Islamic scholar and chairman of the Fiqh Council of North America Dr. Yasir Qadhi discussed the book Good Muslim, Bad Muslim by Professor Mahmood Mamdani, in light of the nomination of Mamdani’s son, Zohran, as the Democratic mayoral candidate in New York City.
He described the book as “seminal in combating Islamophobia” because it provides “context” to the 9/11 attacks.
Qadhi said that he has to be careful with his speech because EPIC “is being monitored by the far-right,” and that some “nutjob in New Jersey” takes his clips out of context and sends them to the governor.
