New York--New York Judge Carolyn Walker-Diallo, a Black Muslim woman took oath as a civil court judge in New York on Thursday, while swearing to abide by the U.S. Constitution placing her hand on the Holy Quran.
In the United States and the majority of Western countries, politicians and members of the courts are sworn in to their positions while placing their hand on the Holy Bible when they take their oath.
However, Judge Walker took her oath respecting the sacred book of her Islamic faith, the Holy Quran, while also wearing a hijab.
A video posted on Facebook shows the moment when Judge Walker was sworn in as a civil court judge of the 7th Municipal District at the Brooklyn Burough Hall in New York City.
"All is praise is indeed due to the Most High! I am humbled that my community has entrusted me with the immense responsibility of ensuring that EVERYONE has notice and a FAIR opportunity to be heard in the halls of justice," Walker wrote on her website.

Does this not violate the separation of church (mosque) and state? Oh the humanity of it all.
I can’t imagine a white, christian, male is going to get much justice from “it”.
Once we kicked JESUS and HIS FATHER out of America, ABORTION rushed in...then everything GAY came in right behind it. We are a country in the throes of dying AFTER KILLING 60 MILLION BABIES!! We deserve what we get.
I don't think so at this pace lately.
Or explain please.
Made me physically ill
I’ve always said our justice system with its goofy “courts” was a freak show. This just proves it.
She is wearing a hijab in the courtroom.
Justice is not that blind.
“It must be Mr. Diversity, de Blasio who appointed her.”
She was elected. She ran unopposed.

If I had a case before her I would demand another judge since the koran is antithetical to the constitution and the law.
No longer than it takes the muslims to kill them. The same goes for all other infidels. The Christians will be after the Jews. After the Christians, they will start working on the other infidels. But, it appears to be what a majority of voters demand.
Me too. I am still nauseated.
So a Jew sues a muslim for a crimnal act,
or the state brings criminal charges against a muslim for violent acts against a Christian, a Jew, or his own wife for violatring some aspect of Sharia law, and the case goes to this muslim judge.....
Jefferson secured a copy of the Quran for intelligence purposes in dealing with the Barbary pirates.
"Nonetheless, one of the most valuable aspects of Thomas Jefferson's Qur'an is its compelling, formidably documented case that Americans divided on this question in the founding period, as they do today, and that the case for inclusion is far stronger, in substance and in the authority of those embracing it, than the case for exclusion. Stressing the need to remember the enlightened approach to who gets the benefit of the American experiment's protections of religious liberty, Spellberg's book is essential reading in these troubled times."
I will never forget the night of that election, same feeling now.
And Americans elected him TWICE. IT’s time to stop blaming OBama but blaming the voter.
Yes, if you are not a muzzie.
I am saying Muslems have been in this country since its founding. They are all around you, unless you in a cornfield with no one around you.
Sure, there are whack jobs out there. Yes, we need to be alert.
But the comments on this thread are really silly.
Swearing an oath on a death cult manifesto? Groovy.
It ain’t a holy book.
