Imam Asad Zaman pledged his support to Palestinians after October 7 and has previously promoted a Neo-Nazi propaganda film expressing support for Hitler, the Washington Examiner revealed.

The Washington Examiner revealed Friday that Walz has also donated $100,000 to the Muslim American Society of Minnesota, a non-profit headed by Asad Zaman. According to court records, the Muslim American Society was once described as “the overt arm of the Muslim Brotherhood in the United States.” 

According to Fox News, MAS was designated a terrorist group by the United Arab Emirates in 2014 and faced criticism for a 2019 video of children at a Philadelphia chapter event calling for Jews to be killed.

Sam Westrop, director of Middle East Forum’s Islamist Watch, told the New York Post that “Asad Zaman is one of America’s most prominent Islamist voices and has a long history of extreme rhetoric and ideas.”
