On February 11, 2025, Michigan Islamic scholar Sheikh Ahmad Musa Jibril responded to President Donald Trump's plan for Gaza in a video uploaded to his website and social media accounts. Jibril condemned Islamic leaders who supported Trump's electoral campaign, calling them "the true enemies" and labeling them as "deceitful and cunning imams." He quoted from the Quran: "They are the enemies, beware of them, may Allah destroy them!" Jibril further claimed that Trump's hands "are still freshly dripping with the blood" of those massacred in the Muslim world.
Jibril said that the president sought support from anyone, likening him to a fly searching for waste to land on, finding it in Hamtramck and elsewhere, where imams had "sold their religion" only to have Zionists appointed to his cabinet. He emphasized that Trump discarded these imams like "disposable toilet paper" and pointed out that Shi'ite imam Husham Al-Husainy was "kicked out" of the inauguration program.
Jibril, who served six and a half years in prison for conspiracy, fraud, money laundering, and possession of firearms and ammunition, is considered to be the inspiration for several jihadist attacks and initiatives in the West.
Ahmad Musa Jibril: "Gaza will always belong to Muslims, it's not the property of Trump or Netanyahu, or America, or the Jews.
[...]
"Truthfully, anything uttered or done by the tyrant Trump comes as no surprise.
[...]
"The real issue is with those who helped put him into office.
[...]
"The ones who put him in power are the true enemies. 'They are the enemies, beware of them.' The true threat doesn't lie in the visible enemy that we can see, but in the ones who hide within the ranks, concealed among our own, deceitful and cunning imams pretending to be allies, while in reality, they are the very enemy. [The Quran says:] 'They are the enemies, beware of them, may Allah destroy them! How perverted are they!'
[...]
"Calling their congregation to vote for Trump is a matter that concerns the blood, lands, and rights of the Muslims, all of which have been violated and will be violated more. They never learn from their mistakes.
[...]
"Whose hands are still freshly dripping with the blood of women, children, and men who were massacred throughout the Muslim world? The one they put into office.
[...]
"Your vote, in itself, is a form of participation in the killing of Muslims, taking their land, and in oppressing them.
[...]
"During his campaign, Trump sought support from anyone. He was willing to align himself with anyone who would tolerate him. He flew around like a fly looking for waste to land on. The mayor of Dearborn, a Shiite, refused to meet with him on numerous occasions.
[...]
"Eventually, the fly found some waste to land on in Hamtramck and elsewhere, those who claim to be Sunnis, those who run some of the largest mosques of dissent. He crawled into the arms of morally bankrupt wretches in Hamtramck and beyond.
[...]
"They sold their religion for no return. Instead, what happened is that he filled his cabinet with Zionists, and disregarded [his Muslim supporters] like the disposable toilet paper they deserve to be treated as, even kicking one of the Rafidite [Shiite] ones out of the inauguration program."
