A Texas Imam Sparks a National Controversy
Conservative activist Amy Mek has sounded the alarm over statements attributed to Dr. Main Al Qudah, president of the Al-Huda Islamic Center in Katy.
According to Mek, Al Qudah recently told an audience that American Muslims should move beyond preserving their religious identity and actively contribute to changing American identity.
She attributed this statement to him:
“We participate and positively contribute in changing even the American identity.”
Mek also alleges that Al Qudah encouraged Muslims to ensure their political activities remain consistent with Islamic religious teachings.
The constitutional question is significant: Where does legitimate religious participation in American politics end, and where would an attempt to replace constitutional authority with religious law begin?
Americans have the right to organize politically according to their beliefs. But no religious institution, Christian or Muslim, has authority to override the United States Constitution.
The complete speech and its context have not yet been independently verified.
🚨 TEXAS IS BEING MOCKED IN REAL TIME 🚨 Main Al Qudah just said the quiet part out loud. In a new post-election speech, he declared that American Muslims are no longer just “preserving our identity.” “We participate and positively contribute in changing even the American identity.” He pointed to the recent election as proof of Muslim political power and said voting and lobbying are not enough; every action must stay fully compliant with the Deen (Sharia). More scholars are needed to tell Muslims what is halal and haram in American politics, careers, and daily life. This is the same man: 🔺 Whose father and uncle were Muslim Brotherhood members (admitted in federal court) 🔺 Who openly advocated replacing secular law with full Sharia in Jordan (Sixth Circuit, 2013) 🔺 Who sits on the AMJA fatwa committee that green-lit symbolic wife-beating, death for apostates, and zakat for “legitimate jihad” 🔺 Who is building the 30-acre, $70–80 million Al-Huda Islamic Center in Katy- a mosque for 1,500, a K-12 school, Guidance College, housing, a clinic, sports fields, and commercial space A cradle-to-grave parallel society on Texas soil, designed so families never have to leave the Islamic bubble. Abbott designated the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organization. RAIR has been dropping the receipts for months. We did ALL the work, turned it over to the governement and ZERO action. And yet he is still here, still building, and now openly celebrating the transformation of the American identity. Where is the investigation? Where is the deportation proceeding? Where is the will? Texas officials- he is laughing at you. The heartland is being turned into a beachhead while the state and federal government are doing nothing. Demand action. Deport him!

The Muslim Brotherhood Allegations
Mek's criticism extends beyond the recent speech.
She alleges that Al Qudah has family connections to the Muslim Brotherhood and previously advocated replacing secular law with Sharia in Jordan.
These allegations have also appeared in testimony submitted to the House Judiciary Committee.
However, congressional submission of an allegation does not independently establish its accuracy or prove criminal wrongdoing.
The claims concerning Al Qudah's family history, personal affiliations, and previous immigration proceedings require examination of the underlying court records.
Any determination involving immigration status or deportability must be based on applicable federal law and individual evidence.
The $80 Million Development in Katy
At the center of the controversy is Al-Huda Islamic Center's proposed expansion.
Mek describes a 30-acre development valued at approximately $70 million to $80 million, incorporating a mosque, educational facilities, housing, healthcare services, and commercial amenities.
Al-Huda confirms that it plans to expand its religious, educational, recreational, and community facilities.
However, the organization disputes accusations that it is constructing a separate city or an enclave governed by Sharia.
That distinction matters.
Building a mosque, school, or religious community center is protected activity. Establishing an unlawful governing structure that attempts to supersede American law would be a different matter.
Texas officials should be able to establish whether the project complies with zoning, education, financing, construction, and other applicable laws—without treating religious identity itself as evidence of wrongdoing.
Abbott, Paxton, and the Question of Enforcement
Mek argues that Texas authorities have received substantial documentation concerning Al Qudah and should investigate the allegations.
Her criticism comes amid broader political debate about the Muslim Brotherhood and the state's responsibility to protect constitutional government.
But a political designation or accusation does not automatically establish that a particular individual has committed a crime or is subject to deportation.
If credible evidence of unlawful conduct exists, the appropriate authorities should investigate it.
If the evidence does not support enforcement action, officials should explain what they can lawfully disclose.
Texas deserves a government that investigates credible allegations, protects constitutional freedoms, and applies the same laws to everyone.
A Separate Demand: Audit the Texas Election
Another viral post urges Texans to contact Governor Greg Abbott and Attorney General Ken Paxton to demand a forensic audit of the November 3 election.
The post claims officials have only five business days to challenge the results.
That statement is not a correct general description of Texas election law.
Recount deadlines depend on the date of the official canvass and the type of election. Election contests follow separate statutory procedures.
The Texas Secretary of State has instructed counties to canvass their November 3 election returns between November 6 and November 17.
An audit or legal challenge should identify specific irregularities, the records supporting them, and the applicable legal procedure.
Election transparency requires evidence, documented procedures, and accountability—not assumptions that an unfavorable result proves misconduct.
Texas residents have every right to request explanations, submit documented concerns, and ask officials whether additional review is warranted.
The same standard should govern both controversies: investigate credible evidence, disclose what the law permits, and uphold the Constitution.
Call to Action: Texas Officials Must Answer
Texans who want clarification about the allegations, development permits, or election procedures can contact the responsible offices and request a documented review.
