New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is using his Muslim faith to justify his views on immigration enforcement and wants America to follow suit.

Mamdani held a press conference on Friday to speak about ICE and immigration policy in the United States. As TGP readers know, Madani has vowed not to cooperate with the Trump Administration on getting rid of criminal illegal aliens in the Big Apple.

At one point in the press conference, Mamdani cited Islam to push an open borders agenda. He claimed Islam was built on a narrative of migration and noted that Muhammad was once a stranger too.

Then, he quoted a few sections of the Quran to continue justifying his radical migration stance.

When he finished, the audience erupted into applause.

WATCH:

MAMDANI: I think that freedom from suffering that Buddhism teaches us is only possible if we remove the three poisons of desire, hatred, and ignorance from our daily lives.

We have the power to set ourselves free.

I consider my own faith, Islam, a religion built upon a narrative of migration.

The story of the Hijrah reminds us that Prophet Muhammad was a stranger too, who fled Mecca and was welcomed in Medina.

(quoting Quran) As for those who immigrate in the cause of Allah who are being persecuted, we will surely bless them with a good home in this world.

Or as the Prophet Muhammad said, Islam began as something strange and will go back to being strange. So glad tidings to the strangers

Mamdani went on to brag about how his administration is coaching illegal aliens on what to do if ICE approaches them.

“We have prepared 30,000 guides in 10 languages teaching our neighbors what to do if ICE targets them,” he said.
