Vile Muslim extremist with his own ‘ARMY’ plans to create an Islamic homeland under Sharia law on island near US border – and reveals why he saw Canada as a good ‘base’
By Abul Taher and Daisy Graham-Brown and Rachel Bowman For Dailymail.Com, 28 July 2024:
A firebrand Muslim cleric eyed up an island on the border of the United States and Canada to purchase and turn into an Islamic state.
In a video to his followers, Sheikh Yasser al-Habib, 45, an extremist scholar who already runs military-style training camps, revealed he is in advanced talks to buy an island off the west coast of Scotland.
ADVERTISEMENTHis group plans to build its own school, hospital and mosque on the island, where it intends to practice sharia law.
Al-Habib – who claimed asylum in Britain 20 years ago after fleeing his native Kuwait – told his followers during their property search they considered an ‘island located on the border between the United States and Canada.’
However, they were unable to purchase it because they could not afford its $8 million price tag and there was competition to buy the island from a Canadian charity.

It is not clear where the exact location of the island al-Habib considered, but controversial figure said they were interested in making Canada their base because the country is ‘generally welcoming’ for immigration.
Al-Habib, who preaches to millions online from his ‘global headquarters’ in the picturesque village of Fulmer, in South Buckinghamshire, England, has now set his sights on the uninhabited Scottish island of Torsa.
Torsa, which is one of the Slate Islands, is just over a mile long and has one farmhouse. It is accessible only by private boat from Luing – itself reached via a ferry from the island of Seil, which in turn connects to the mainland via a bridge – and has not been permanently inhabited for more than 50 years.
ADVERTISEMENTSources said that two representatives of al-Habib’s group have visited the island and filmed it as they were shown around.
Sarah Zaaimi, a deputy director for communications at the American think tank Atlantic Council, who has researched al-Habib, said: ‘They will have their own army, their own justice system, they will manage their own schools and hospitals, and people from around the world will be able to migrate to this homeland.
