The East Plano Islamic Center is denying cult accusations involving a 402-acre property in far Northeast Texas.
A proposed real estate development project 40 miles northeast of Dallas is drawing the attention of Texas’ most powerful politicians and thousands of internet critics for allegedly planning a “Sharia city” in violation of the Fair Housing Act.
The 402-acre property, close to the small town of Josephine and nestled between the far north edges of Collin and Hunt Counties, was purchased by one of the region’s largest mosques, the East Plano Islamic Center, or EPIC. It is set to be managed by Community Capital Partners, an entity formed by the mosque and headed by its former president of the board of directors, Yasir Qadhi. The property blueprints, dubbed “EPIC City,” were introduced in October and include over 1,000 homes, a K-12 religious school, a community college, a mosque and shopping centers.
“EPIC City is more than just a neighborhood; it’s a way of life,” says the announcement video from the East Plano Islamic Center. “It is a meticulously designed community that brings Islam to the forefront, a community that blends with nature, crafted to elevate your living experience.”
Instantly, the development plan garnered scrutiny, with the most extreme critics accusing the community of being cult-like and attacking the legality of creating a Muslim-only community. However, those involved in the project have gone on the record to clarify that religion is a non-factor in community involvement.
“It’s an open community,” Qadhi said to KERA News. “Anybody can come in. We're welcoming people of all backgrounds and diversity, and we're offering them facilities that we think would be very, very useful.”

“This showdown in Texas reflects a larger struggle for American identity, where progressive open-border policies have, according to critics, allowed foreign ideologies to infiltrate under the guise of diversity.”

No Shia, Alawites or Bahai’i allowed!
“We’re welcoming people of all backgrounds and diversity” what he doesn’t say is to live under Sharia law and listen to the annoying bullhorn 5-6 times a day.
So much for the great American melting pot. Muslims will be the death of western civilization.
Exactly!
Shut This Down.
The 402-acre property belongs to the region’s largest mosques, the East Plano Islamic Center, EPIC,
a mosque entity headed by its former bd of directors president, Muslim Yasir Qadhi.
“EPIC City” will include over 1,000 Muslim homes, a K-12 Muslim
religious school, a community college, a mosque and shopping centers.
Now Gov Abbott, and AG Paxton are Targeting the Proposed Muslim Development in North Texas.

They’re building a no-go colony under the flight paths to DFW.
What could possibly go wrong?
Just a part of their World Conquest plan. As ordered in their so-called holy book.
Taqiyya!
“Anybody can come in. We’re welcoming people of all backgrounds and diversity, and we’re offering them facilities that we think would be very, very useful.”
If anyone believes that, then I have some wonderful oceanfront property in northwest Iowa to sell you.
Islam is NOT a religion.
It’s a violent death cult, bent on world domination.
Where is the “Freedom From Religion” lawfare group complaining about this?
Are they going to incorporate the community as “Jihad City” or “New Mecca”?
The mosque is the FOB Forward Operating Base for Islam. From that comes the EPIC East Plano Islamic Center.
