Islamic Conquest: Texas Imam Signals 'Takeover' After Dem Blue Wave: Muslims have to 'Confront Disbelievers'
Muslims should strike now to conquer Texas, an imam is exhorting his flock.
Imam Karim AbuZaid called the rise in power of Texas Democrats in the midterm elections “a chance for us Muslims to grab” power, according to the Dallas Express.
“The believers now have to confront the disbelievers,” he said in a Friday sermon.
The imam said initial confrontations were “not necessarily physically.”
Debate and elections were among “lawful means” he said Muslims should use to expand their power, but said “it will escalate” to a confrontation.
“It has to at the end,” he said.
AbuZaid is on record as saying “Islam will rule the world again.”
Republican Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas said after coming across the comments that the descendants of the Texans who defended the Alamo are not ready to surrender.
This is their plan.
They admit it proudly.
Hell no.

“This is their plan. They admit it proudly. Hell no,” he posted on X.
The imam, however, said Cruz was “singing the blues by himself,” the Dallas Express noted.
AbuZaid is a supporter of San Diego Imam Uthman ibn Farooq, who has said making the U.S. a Muslim country is “our goal.”
“America will be a Muslim country, Russia will be a Muslim country,” Farooq said in 2025 adding that the “nightmare of a Muslim Europe” would take place in the end.
A post on the X account Wall Street Apes summarized the threat, writing, “They say they will capture Texas for Muslims and make Texas the new ‘Medina of America, let’s make it that’ and they will install Sharia Law.”
WOAH 🚨 Muslim leaders are now openly declaring that right now is their chance to takeover Texas after the Democrat Midterms results
They say they will capture Texas for Muslims and make Texas the new “Medina of America, let’s make it that” and they will install Sharia Law, “We’re Muslim, and that’s why we want Islam for this country”
“In Texas now with the new project because — the entire state, to their surprise, actually turned into blue — this is a chance for us Muslims to grab. By the will of Allah. Alhamdulillah, we see in Dallas a great potential, a great potential for the Ummah (meaning their new nation)
And the reason you have a lot of Islamophobes trying to derail you is because they see it as well. They see, as the media has called it, Darul Hijrah of America now, right? And insha’Allah — by the will of Allah, it will happen.
What does Allah tell us? That in the end, the victory is for the people of taqwa. The victory will come, no doubt to that. We’re either gonna be victorious or shuhada, we’re not coming back. Insha’Allah”
Dallas, a blessed city, Texas, the great state of Texas — the dawah is gonna grow. People call this the Medina of America. Well, let’s make it that. We’re Muslim, and that’s why we want Islam for this country, because we think that’s the best thing. You have to stand firm”
He then says they Muslims will have victory
THEY ARE LITERALLY TELLING YOU their plan is to capture Texas and make it a new the new Medina of America”
My question is where is the CIA? Where is the military? We have Muslims openly planning on taking over our country and states

“’We’re Muslim, and that’s why we want Islam for this country,” the account quoted AbuZaid as saying.
“In Texas now with the new project because — the entire state, to their surprise, actually turned into blue — this is a chance for us Muslims to grab,” he said.
“By the will of Allah. Alhamdulillah, we see in Dallas a great potential, a great potential for the Ummah (meaning their new nation) And the reason you have a lot of Islamophobes trying to derail you is because they see it as well,’” he was also quoted.
