Islamic Society of Tulsa hosts community open house after mosque proposal denied
KJRH Tulsa ^

Posted on 02/16/2026 3:35:08 AM PST by LouAvul

TULSA, Okla. — The Islamic Society of Tulsa welcomed families, neighbors, and community members to its mosque Sunday for a public open house aimed at building understanding and connection.

The event follows the denial of a proposed mosque in Broken Arrow. Broken Arrow City Council members rejected rezoning and permit applications for the project, citing concerns about insufficient infrastructure along Olive Avenue to handle the potential increase in weekly traffic.

Despite that decision, leaders at the Tulsa mosque said Sunday’s event was not about revisiting the proposal, but about inviting people to learn more about their faith.

Throughout the afternoon, guests toured the mosque, viewed art displays, and participated in discussions on Islamic traditions and culture. Visitors were also invited to attend a religious service and ask questions about what occurs inside the prayer space.

…that was the reason they rejected it?! Not that Islam is a pox on the world and endangers the state of OK?

("I learned all I need to know about islam on 9/11/2001")

They've hijacked a great religion! - George W. Bush 43

(Instead George W. Bush told us “Islam is peace.")

We had 2 mosques and they complained about the same things that church complain about. C&E Muslims just like C&E Christians. Only about 10% of adult people who call themselves Muslims attend mosque. I had a boss who was Muslim and he only attended a mosque once in his life and it turned out to be the wrong one.
The Saudis built an Islamic school in Christiansburg Va and it promptly went belly up. It’s now a Christian Retreat Center. You can see the minaret on I-81.

"MUSLIMS" ....A mass of people who carry a "holy" book that says to murder all Jews and Christians who won't bow to their prophet.

And now we're flooding them into our country and even putting them into our government!

Can American citizens be more stupid or are we trying to destroy ourselves, AND the future of our kids and grand-kids???

BTW - That first Muslim president Obama said he "had a plan for America" .... and it was NOT for our good! And now they're trying to carry it out!

I believe most thinking people know about all they need to know about Islam, too. Muslims don’t belong here. Their system is not compatible with Christianity.

(Their system is not compatible with Christianity.)

I agree

Some of them don’t understand it, but reducing
The Lord Jesus Christ to only “a prophet” is in
fact a denial of the Deity of Jesus Christ and
is therefore of the spirit of antichrist.

But the spiritual blinders can only be removed
if they turn to Christ in Faith ✝️✝️🙏🙏🛐🛐

I see and read news of what has happened in Europe due to the mass migration (invasion) of Muslims. They do not want to assimilate. They want to change society, culture and faith to theirs. They’re a burden that evolves to a dangerous problem.

I have colleagues that are Muslims, that don’t fit this profile. Good people. But at the same time I see the disasters in the U.K., Germany, France, etc.. This is an avoidable problem.

One thing I've observed about liberals is that they don't search for truth. Instead, they passively listen to sources (they've decided are trustworthy) to tell them what to believe.

And none of these sources (CNN, Matt Damon, etc.) tell the truth. It's almost as if they plagiarize Hitler's Public Service Announcements protocol.

The citizens in and around Dearborn, MI, disagree. To name but one. Every place muslims populate turns into hostile no-go-zones for decent folk.

They will not give this up. They will keep bringing it up until they get their way including a loudspeaker with the call to prayer
