Imam Imad Enchassi, the current imam of the Islamic Society of Greater Oklahoma City (my former mosque), has been in the news recently for being likely the first Muslim to give the opening prayer of the Oklahoma state senate, calling for “justice” in “Palestine,” and for getting very emotional over receiving money from a local Jewish woman to help a family in Hamas-controlled Gaza.
Enchassi is quite the character. He is also a very good liar. Enchassi has actually claimed to have a certificate of Apostolic Succession! Real trustworthy guy.
Enchassi has worked very hard, like Imam Suhaib Webb before him, to present himself to the media and other unbelievers as a moderate, a peacenik, and a promoter of “social justice.”
However, like Suhaib Webb, Enchassi eventually let the mask slip.
When I was approached by law enforcement in the fall of 2006 about attending the mosque I had walked away from in March 2003, I agreed, feeling it was a duty and necessity to help expose some of the, shall we say, less peaceful messages coming from the mosque.
The first thing I noticed was that Imad Enchassi was now the imam. I found that odd, as he was the manager of a Furr’s restaurant while I was a Muslim, and now he was leading the mosque. One Friday, as I was attending the Jummah prayer, Enchassi gave the khutbah (sermon). He said one thing that I never forgot. He claimed that the Israelis were trying to collapse al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem by digging tunnels underneath it. He offered no evidence for this. He just stated it as if it were a well-known fact, and then moved on with the rest of his sermon.
I knew Enchassi, who was from Lebanon, to be a staunch hater of Israel. During the dua before the prayers, I heard him at least a few times pray for the mujahideen in Palestine among other places. Before he was the imam, I remember him giving a loud “Ameen” when another Muslim who was leading the Ramadan prayers prayed for the mujahideen in Palestine.
This man is a liar and an anti-Semite. His partner in taqiyyah, Adam Soltani, the leader of the Oklahoma City chapter of the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), openly criticizes Israel but then claims he knows nothing about Hamas, who they represent, or if they are a terrorist group, since he is not a foreign policy expert.
These people think the American people are stupid. Unfortunately, regarding all too many Americans in regard to the jihad threat, they aren’t completely wrong.
People such as Imad Enchassi, Suhaib Webb, Saad Mohammed (the director of dawah at the Islamic Society of Greater Oklahoma City), and Adam Soltani should not be honored. They should be shunned and condemned for being bigots. But the useful idiots of the woke left are too busy worrying about “white supremacy” to be concerned about the followers of a religion that is completely antithetical to Western civilization.
They do their best to hide the truth, but it isn’t impossible to see. As Voltaire said, “It is difficult to free fools from the chains they revere.” Islam must be thought to be peaceful at all costs, and these imams benign pillars of the community, or the narrative will crumble and leftist utopian fantasies will topple like dominoes.

You apparently are no longer a Muslim. Good for you. But how are this current imam and the other Muslims you cite different from the other worshipers at this Oklahimoma City mosque? Do the majority of them not hate Jews or support Israel’s annihilation?
Also, I believe you’re posting under a nom de plume, as your name translates roughly as “Illumination the American.” It’s understandable that you choose not to post under your real name.
commonsense says
Typo – Oklahoma City.
Noor al-Amriki says
They aren’t any different really. The difference is the ones I mentioned are media darlings and used for propaganda about peaceful Islam is. My name is a nom de plume as I am an apostate from Islam and hence under penalty of death. The name Noor is better translated as ‘light’.

Thank you.

Haven’t seen any posts from you in a long time. Hope you’re well. And safe.
“Islam must be thought to be peaceful at all costs, and these imams benign pillars of the community, or the narrative will crumble and leftist utopian fantasies will topple like dominoes.”
A farce championed, to our peril, by “the useful idiots of the woke left”.
Noor al-Amriki says
I am well, thank you.

Oklahoma Imam Imad Enchassi: Liar and Anti-Semite
………………..
Nasty stuff. Good expose by ex-Muslim Noor Al-Amriki.
And this creep pretends to be a force for “love and peace”–including, apparently, hatred of civilized Israel.

The name and the picture can be changed, but the message remains the same.

Very true, PRCS.

A Muslim opening prayer of the Oklahoma state senate. And this is America, once a predominantly Christian country – allowing a pagan worshipper of a satanic god to open a session with prayers that contained lies.
No one should be surprised that God appears to have abandoned America. Many cities are in disarray. Black racist criminals of BLM, other criminals of Antifa run wild and the imbecile, imposter president, a fool called Joe Biden, idiotically says white supremacists are the threat to peace – and liberals cheer this raving lie and its nonsense. All of this is both sad and pitiful. There is no point anyone announcing ‘God bless America’. He won’t until the people humble themselves and ask for forgiveness.
Bill Simon says
John Bennett, Oklahoma Republican Chair, former Oklahoma legislator and VP of ‘Understanding the Threat’, attempted to educate OK legislators (2011 I believe), on the dangers that Islam posed, not only to the US but to Oklahoma as well. Many Oklahomans, including current legislators, don’t realize how vulnerable we are Jihad. Mr. Bennett at the time was rebuked by most of his peers and criticized by ‘journalists’. Hopefully you and Mr. Bennett are working in concert to help enlighten the public. It will require multiple exposures to your knowledge and your experiences within the walls of Islam.
Noor al-Amriki says
They have not reached out to me in any way since I first exposed Enchassi, Suhaib Webb, and the Islamic Society of Greater Oklahoma City in the Fall of 2014.

I wish they would.
OLD GUY says
Our political leadership has allowed the snake into the house. Islam is anti-American, with outright hate and planned destruction for the citizens of America. There is a migration invasion of islamic migrants coming to non muslim countries around the world. Their intent is world domination, that will result in the murder of millions and the enslavement of millions of non-islamic followers. Islam is the most dangerous enemy of freedom and life.
