A political conflict is playing out within the walls of the Muslim community in Southeast Texas. A man who was the leader of Muslims in the area said Thursday the conflict has resulted in his ousting.
"Don't get me involved in any political games in the name of religion. I am not here a political man," Dr. Nidal Alsayyed said.
But it's political motivations he said have forced him to resign as Imam.
"Sadly, it's Clinton versus Trump," he said.
Dr. Al Sayyed told KFDM News he was forced to resign as religious director of the Islamic Society of the Triplex after making comments Monday in which he agrees with Donald Trump's statements that the U.S. should temporarily stop accepting any new Muslim immigrants into the country.
While the religious leader said he expected the call to resign eventually, he said it was sped up by politics.
"I think any future candidates, presidents who do not support the fact that we need to be more safe and more cautious about whom to bring into this country, whether a Muslim or not," Dr. Alsayyed said.

Religion of Tolerance.
Not.
They can’t handle the truth.
I suppose the good imam could look on the bright side and consider himself lucky to still have his head on his shoulders.
If we had a problem with Catholics or Buddhists or Seventh-Day-Adventists being mass-killers....we’d deny them access too. Last time I looked....the Amish were about the only faith left on the face of the Earth with pure intentions and would never harm another being.
The only good muslim is a bad muslim.
If that is true, he better get the hell out of there before another muslim kills him.
Prof positive of their motives to destroy western civilization.
So they are the only radicalized Christians?
Any questions.... crickets Didn’t think so.
What?
One of the thing’s Trump is doing is shoring up Muslims in America who WANT to stand up to extremism in their ranks but are afraid to...
It’s time for a Islamic Reformation - they can keep the ‘religious’ parts and dump the ‘political - sex slave, war, beheadings etc. parts.
It’s not as easy as people think. Trump is opening the discussion... he’s brushing aside the delusions of the left - and the power of radical Imams - at the same time. We must talk... tell the truth - work it out. It won’t happen by putting our heads in the sand.
The first people radical Muslims set out to kill are other Muslims.
Unfortunately, all the bad stuff is in the Quran, which by definition is the word of Allah and CANNOT be changed, reformed, reinterpreted or ignored.
But maybe - like attempting to ‘untie’ the gordian knot - the problem has to be re-framed.
There is a solution.
