MPAC’s Haris Tarin & Dr. Asifa Quraishi-Landes on What Sharia Is & the Right’s Weaponization of It

Videos
On May 12, 2026 By MPAC
As part of MPAC’s First Amendment Series in advance of the House Judiciary Subcommittee’s upcoming “Sharia-Free America” hearing, MPAC is convening legal and policy experts to unpack what is truly at stake. This Wednesday, the Subcommittee will hold its second hearing, “Sharia-Free America: Why Political Islam & Sharia Law are Incompatible with the U.S. Constitution: Part II.” In response, MPAC is launching a three-part conversation exploring what this hearing means, not only for American Muslims, but for the constitutional freedoms and civil liberties that affect every American. Join MPAC’s Haris Tarin and Dr. Asifa Quraishi-Landes for a critical discussion on what Sharia actually is and isn't, and how it has been distorted and weaponized in political discourse, and why efforts like the “Sharia-Free America” movement threaten core constitutional protections. --------- Subscribe to MPAC's channel: http://bit.ly/MPACYouTube Like MPAC on Facebook: http://fb.com/mpacnational Follow MPAC on Twitter: http://twitter.com/mpac_national Follow MPAC on Instagram: http://instagram.com/mpac_national Visit MPAC's website: http://mpac.org About the Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC) We improve public understanding and policies that impact American Muslims by engaging our government, media, and communities.

ICE and the Rule of Law

Videos
On February 11, 2026 By MPAC
Immigration enforcement is no longer a distant policy debate — it is shaping how power is exercised, how laws are applied, and how entire communities experience the rule of law. In this timely conversation, “ICE and the Rule of Law,” we examine the expanding authority of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the serious questions it raises about accountability, civil liberties, and constitutional protections. Joining the discussion: • Mike Downing, former Deputy Chief of the Los Angeles Police Department, who brings decades of law enforcement experience and insight into the responsible use of public authority. • Keith Ellison, Minnesota Attorney General, who addresses the legal and civil-rights implications of unchecked enforcement power. Together, we explore how immigration enforcement policies are impacting trust in public institutions, what safeguards may be eroding, and what principled, justice-centered responses grounded in human dignity can look like in this moment. This conversation goes beyond politics. It asks fundamental questions: Are our laws being applied fairly? Are our institutions accountable to the people they serve? And how do we uphold both security and constitutional protections in a way that reflects our shared democratic values? Watch, engage, and join the dialogue. ---------- Subscribe to MPAC's channel: http://bit.ly/MPACYouTube Like MPAC on Facebook: http://fb.com/mpacnational Follow MPAC on Twitter: http://twitter.com/mpac_national Follow MPAC on Instagram: http://instagram.com/mpac_national Visit MPAC's website: http://mpac.org About the Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC) We improve public understanding and policies that impact American Muslims by engaging our government, media, and communities.
