In 1892, islam was declared to NOT come under the purview of the 1st Ammendment of the U.S. Constitution by the New York State Supreme Court.

What the New York courts have to say about it is irrelevant outside of NY. And a 110-year-old ruling is almost certainly also irrelevant in NY in the face of subsequent Supreme Court cases.
