The Islamic Center of Nashville (ICN) is once again wrapping itself in the language of “diversity,” “inclusion,” and “beyond borders.”
It proudly showcased its 6th Annual Diversity Brunch as a resounding success. Approximately 600 people attended. Food and cultural exhibits from more than 30 nations filled the space. Uzbekistan, Malaysia, and Mexico took top honors. Second Harvest Food Bank collected donations. The Nashville Banner received a “Beyond Borders Award” for being a “champion of inclusion and justice.” Nashville Mayor Freddie O’Connell was there as a special guest – lending the city’s highest office to the mosque’s photo op. Police officials also joined in for photo ops.
It all sounds harmless enough: food, culture, community, inclusion.
But look past the food tables.
The Islamic Center of Nashville’s (ICN) Board President and director of outreach is Rashed Fakhruddin. That same family network connects directly to the American Muslim Advisory Council (AMAC). Sabina Mohyuddin, AMAC’s Executive Director, is Rashed Fakhruddin’s sister. Metro Councilwoman Zulfat Suara has publicly described Sabina, Rashed, and herself as siblings in the same family circle. Suara is Tennessee’s first Muslim lawmaker and a former AMAC board member.
AMAC was founded in 2012 to gut Tennessee’s anti-Sharia bill. It now runs a “School Advocacy Hub” that hands Muslim students template letters demanding prayer accommodations, Ramadan and Eid exemptions, and tools to purge “Islamophobic” curriculum – while linking to CAIR resources and pushing “faith-based bullying” surveys.
On April 1, 2026, AMAC bused hundreds of activists into the Tennessee State Capitol for its 8th Annual “Muslim Day on the Hill,” advertising a record turnout and framing the goal as protecting “community infrastructure” – code for mosques, halal mandates, school prayer rooms, and insulation from scrutiny.
In January 2017, AMAC brought Yasir Qadhi – the Saudi-trained Salafi cleric driving Texas’s EPIC City project – into the Tennessee Capitol complex to deliver a Friday khutbah. Qadhi has rejected democracy in favor of Sharia and called for Muslims in government, the Pentagon, the FBI, and the CIA.
Meanwhile, Nashville’s Muslim networks are celebrating another institutional win: two Muslim women on the Metro Nashville Public Schools Board of Education. Dr. Berthena Nabaa-McKinney, first elected in 2022 as Tennessee’s first Muslim school-board member, is serving another term after winning her 2026 primary. She previously served as principal of Nashville International Academy, ICN’s Islamic school, and appears on AMAC conference materials. Hannah Said, AMAC Youth Leadership Program graduate (2025–2026), was appointed student member of the board. Both were sworn in on the Quran. Community posts call the pairing “history in the making.”
Tennessee’s proposed “religious liberty” bills would have given that network a legal opening. HB1491 created a daily period for prayer and religious texts; AMAC admitted it “may open the door for school sanctioned prayer spaces for Muslim students.” SB1041 would allow school chaplains; AMAC admitted it could “open the door for other religious clerics, including Imams.” While it failed to pass and was sidelined, advocacy for prayer accommodations and special privileges for Muslim students in Metro Nashville schools remains active through groups like AMAC.
This is coordinated institutional penetration – mosque, advisory council, Capitol access, school board – sold to the public as brunch and “inclusion.” Zulfat Suara’s 2019 election to Nashville Metro Council, with a Quran used at her swearing-in, was an early political marker. AMAC’s Capitol days and Qadhi’s 2017 appearance were another. The Diversity Brunch and the school-board milestone are the latest.
Now, we're being overrun by the same ethnic mongrels God used to punish, first, Israel then, second, the Jews, when Israel and Judea gave themselves over to sin.
Anybody see a correlation here? Anybody?
Must we wait till they have taken over towns and cities and then eventually start shooting and I.E.D.i g us with whatever their mosque/school/clinic/armories have stashed waiting for the go signal?

Judges will rule they are just practicing their religion. So sit back and take it.
No one hardly mentions muslims in the news, even when they do something horrific, then everyone has to find a motive.
Someone in the US had to grow a pair and start calling these evil people out for what they are. Levin comes close, but it will take someone in government to get the ball rolling over them.

I don’t think it’s going to take “someone in government”, once the muzzies go that ‘bridge too far’ here in Texas. We don’t have to wait for any damn gov goon to tell us when we can defend ourselves.

How many muslim-only cities are they building in Texas? What constitutes a bridge too far?

A1: None such built... so far.
A2: When they finally manage to build a “Muslim-Only” city in Texas and start trying to ram Sharia law down our throats (or somewhere else that we don’t like). That will finally be time to play ‘cowboys and muzzies’. And as a strongly anti-Sharia female...
I’m ready and up for it.
Your AI is wrong there is one built and another under construction. Perhaps it depends on one’s definition of a city?

Damn that AI. Ok... where is the one that is built? EPIC is the one under construction, right?
