How Birmingham’s Largest Mosque Bound Itself to Islamic Law — and the Muslim Brotherhood’s Network

In this RAIR Foundation article, Amy Mek reveals how Birmingham’s largest mosque, the Birmingham Islamic Society (BIS), has deliberately bound itself to Sharia over Alabama law through its constitution, asset control, and leadership ties to the Muslim Brotherhood network.

• BIS’s constitution explicitly declares Sharia supreme, subordinating all activities, disputes, finances, and membership to Quran and Sunnah.
• Assets and unresolved disputes are routed to the North American Islamic Trust (NAIT), identified in federal records as part of the Muslim Brotherhood’s U.S. property infrastructure.
• The mosque promotes an Islamic Last Will and Testament that overrides Alabama law on inheritance (males double females’ share), burial, child custody, and debts.
• Founders and imams have ties to radical figures, including a named Muslim Brotherhood member from the Holy Land Foundation trial and promoters of 9/11 conspiracy theories and antisemitism.
• BIS operates multiple facilities, schools, and clinics while aggressively pursuing dawah and political activism to shape government and society.
• The mosque’s parallel Islamic system prioritizes Sharia over U.S. civic norms on gender, family, and law, creating a self-contained framework for long-term control.
• This model represents a deliberate institutional strategy to subordinate American law to Islamic governance within communities.
