Story by David Wilson
Texas Governor Greg Abbott has introduced legislation prohibiting the implementation of Sharia law in the state, prompted by a campaign led by Imam F. Qasim ibn Ali Khan, a leader at Masjid At-Tawhid and an affiliate of the Nation of Islam.
Khan’s efforts to pressure Muslim-owned businesses to cease selling pork, alcohol, and lottery tickets have gained significant attention online, with videos of his confrontations circulating widely.
Governor Abbott announced, “I signed laws that BAN Sharia Law and Sharia Compounds in Texas. No business and no individual should fear fools like this.”
He further emphasized, “In Texas, we believe in equal rights under the law for all men, women, & children. Any legal system that flouts human rights is BANNED in the state of Texas.” Abbott also instructed, “If this person, or ANYONE, attempts to impose Sharia compliance, report it to local law enforcement or the Texas Dept. of Public Safety.”
Khan’s initiative, described as a religious outreach targeting businesses he believes violate Islamic principles, has sparked further debate.
Khan declared, “We’re kicking off a national protest and demonstration campaign against all Muslim businesses that have haram in their stores.” He also stated, “This is the beginning of the campaign. We’re serving notice to America and the world that enough is enough.”
Comment:
Thank you governor Abbot.
Nip it in the bud.
Texas has suffered from terrorist attacks.
Texas has experienced several significant Islamist terrorist incidents and plots over the past two decades, involving both lone actors and small groups inspired by international jihadist groups such as ISIS and al-Qaeda, with notable attacks at Fort Hood and Garland among them.

Texas has experienced several significant Islamist terrorist incidents and plots over the past two decades, involving both lone actors and small groups inspired by international jihadist groups such as ISIS and al-Qaeda, with notable attacks at Fort Hood and Garland among them.
Key
- Fort Hood Shooting (2009): Army Major Nidal Malik Hasan, radicalized via extremist Islamist rhetoric and communication with Al-Qaeda ideologue Anwar al-Awlaki, killed 13 soldiers and injured 31. This attack exemplified lone-actor homegrown violent extremism (HVE) with no direct orders but ideological inspiration from foreign terrorist organizations.
- Garland Shooting (2015): Elton Simpson and Nadir Soofi attempted an attack on a "Muhammad Art Exhibit and Contest" in Garland. Both were killed by law enforcement. ISIS claimed responsibility, noting Simpson's contacts with ISIS operatives online. This incident highlighted the role of online radicalization and lone-actor attacks in Texas.
- Foiled Plots: In 2018, Matin Azizi-Yarand, a Texas high school student, was arrested for planning an attack on a mall and attempting to support ISIS, demonstrating ongoing domestic threats. Further arrests have involved efforts to travel overseas to join ISIS or provide material support to jihadist groups.
