This, for me, is a clear sign that Zohran Mamdani is a different kind of politician. I may call him a non-conventional politician, just as I have been called a non-conventional Imam in New York City. Because he is courageous enough to say and do what his heart and mind command him to. This is unique, as many other politicians tend to deny and lie to their own hearts and minds.
*Conclusion*
In conclusion, New York City, the US, and the world need such unconventional politicians—politicians who advance their hearts and minds, not their narrow interests by serving the interests of those who own the capital. And New York City deserves that more than ever!
With that in mind, I hereby declare my support and will do everything possible to bring him to the City Hall of the Great New York City… InshaAllah!
