Texas Governor Greg Abbott is pushing back on Sharia law in the Lone Star State, standing up against a Houston-based Imam who pushed for “Sharia patrol” tactics.

From the Daily Wire:

In a move sparking national backlash, a Houston-based imam affiliated with the Nation of Islam launched a campaign demanding Muslim-owned stores stop selling pork, alcohol, and gambling products—or face public protests. Imam F. Qasim ibn Ali Khan of Masjid At-Tawhid, speaking in viral videos circulating on TikTok and X, issued ultimatums to shop owners, warning that demonstrations will escalate unless “haram” items are purged from their inventory.

His message? Sharia compliance or public shaming. Khan’s demonstrations in front of local businesses have drawn comparisons to hardline “Sharia patrol” tactics seen in radicalized areas of Europe.

Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott didn’t mince words in response.

“I signed laws that BAN Sharia Law and Sharia Compounds in Texas,” he posted on X. “No business & no individual should fear fools like this.”

The Governor encouraged Texans to push back on Sharia and report any attempts to force compliance to law enforcement. You can see his full X post here:

Khan reportedly confronted Muslim shopkeepers, telling them they were violating Islamic laws by selling the forbidden goods. He promised to visit “all the stores,” declaring that Muslims “should love what Allah allows and hate what Allah hates.”

This isn’t the first time radical Islam has shown up in Texas. As the Daily Wire notes, the state’s elected officials looked into EPIC City earlier this year, a proposed Muslim-only community that would have operated under Sharia law. IFA reported on this community at the time.

As the Daily Wire notes, the rise of hardcore Islamic enforcers like Khan “signals a growing clash between religious radicalism and American law and culture.” This isn’t just happening in Texas, it’s happening across the nation. In fact, IFA Chief Program Officer Kris Kubal spoke to an expert on Islam earlier this year about just how dangerous this false religion is.

As Islam’s most radical adherents seek to expand their influence, let’s go to the Lord in prayer. Let’s pray that Sharia law would have no place in America, and that people would remember the Christian heritage of our nation!

I am praying that God will reverse the pull of Islam in America. We must stay True to the Worship of the only God, Father, Son & Holy Spirit. Creator of the Heaven Earth and everything in it. Salvation only comes through Faith in Christ Who gave His Life to forgive our sin.

Thank you, Father God, for Governor Abbott’s strong stand. Sharia Law has no place in our country; we have a constitution that we follow and Sharia Law does not follow our constitution. I pray you would open hearts of Muslims in this country to see you as true God and Jesus as the Messiah.

Lord, I humble myself before you, thanking you for the proactive measures taken by Governor Abbott. I pray that this nation will continue to turn back to you and give you praise for the blessings you have bestowed upon this nation.

I pray that no man, no imam, no false teacher be capable of causing any American to falter under the weight of oppression, no current of Islam to carry away the precepts of the founders of this country. Teach us how to stand, to pray and push back on evil by allowing you to demonstrate your vengeance without interference.

I pray that you place your chosen candidates on juries that ask for your favor that justice will be served. Let no weapon fashioned against us prosper – that the slings and arrows and threats be turned back toward the liar and thief that seeks to steal, kill and destroy.

Thank you for turning the hearts if the fathers toward their children.

I pray these things in the name of Yeshua ha Meschiach, my Lord and Savior. amen

We The Church say “Sharia Law, you have NO power over this nation of America! We establish Isaiah 54:17, But in that coming day, no weapon turned against you shall succeed, and you will have justice against every courtroom lie. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord.” This is the blessing I have given you, says the Lord. TLB

Thank you for Gov. Abbott taking a strong stand against sharia law. Please grant him supernatural protection from any attack of the enemy, and rally forces around him to take this same strong stand. May muslims themselves see with greater and greater clarity the bondage of Islam, and open their eyes to see Yeshua and His supremacy and His love, and the salvation He freely offers. Magnify Yourself in their eyes, we ask in Yeshua’s matchless name above all names!!

Praise God that we have strong national leaders who stand up against this kind of tyranny. There is NOTHING about the Muslim religion that is legitimate or redeeming. It is a religion that oppresses its members, and seeks to destroy Christianity. Lord Jesus, it says in Your Word that no weapon that is fashioned against You shall stand. Therefore, I declare victory over this satanic ungodly religion in Your precious name. Please continue to convict ALL Muslims of their wrongdoing, and give them reason to see that You are the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Thank you Jesus.

Father God I ask that you would come into all the hearts of people in America and seed the hope of your beloved son. Let there be no more evil from false religions that aim to harm people who do not believe like them or obey their false teaching. Lord on the heals of our young hero being assassinated , I ask that you would change the hearts of all our young generation and older people so they come back to you and know the truth about your love and hope in Jesus Christ. There is no place for evil to reign . Lord heal this people. Heal our people in Jesus name.

we come to you Holy and mighty Father to bring All false religion like islam to a halt. Remove the lies of Islam and their ideological perversion from the USA. Many All see through their real intentions. Which is anti-Semitism and fight against all who don’t believe. you have enough problems in America we don’t need another one. we pray that the president would push out these radical Muslims that have evil intentions and send them back to their own country. Heavenly Father bring his peace and not war victory and not defeat.
Expose the enemy for who they are. we know they do not believe in the same Jesus as the Christians.
but we do pray did they know the real Jesus and repent for salvation.
We thank you for all you do and the plans you have a head to win the war against evil. in Jesus name we pray Amen

Islam is dangerous to life and liberty. Its core beliefs are contrary to truth and to God’s Word. Its advance has been through violence, and it needs to be met with firm resolve and determination empowered by God.

We must love our Muslim neighbors and seek opportunities to share the Gospel with them. They are held captive by Satan.
