Texas Under Siege: The Stealth Islamic Takeover We Can’t Ignore

Texas Under Siege: The Stealth Islamic Takeover We Can’t Ignore

By: Amil Imani

Texas, the Lone Star State, a bastion of freedom, faith, and rugged individualism, is facing a threat that chills the blood of every patriot who calls this land home. Reports are mounting – whispers turning into roars – that Islamic influence is creeping into our state, not through open conquest, but through an insidious, calculated expansion that threatens the very soul of Texas. The latest flashpoint? The East Plano Islamic Center (EPIC) and its sprawling 402-acre “EPIC City” project in Collin County are now under investigation by the Texas State Securities Board for potential fraud and violations of state law. This isn’t just about one development – it’s a wake-up call to a broader, more sinister agenda that demands our attention and fury.

The group behind the proposed EPIC compound may be misleading investors. Defrauding Texans will not be tolerated.

Governor Greg Abbott didn’t mince words when he declared on February 24, 2025, “Sharia law is not allowed in Texas. Nor are Sharia cities. Nor are ‘no-go zones,’ which this project seems to imply.” Damn right, Governor! The EPIC City plan – a massive compound complete with a mosque, Islamic school, and residential community – has raised red flags across the state. Critics, including the fearless Amy Mek of the RAIR Foundation, have sounded the alarm, calling it a “walled-off Islamic community built around Sharia, not American values.” Now, with the Texas State Securities Board investigating allegations of investor fraud, the stench of deception is impossible to ignore. Are they fleecing Texans to fund this enclave? We demand answers!

But this isn’t an isolated incident; it’s part of a pattern – a slow, deliberate push to plant Islamic roots deep in Texas soil. Look at the facts: Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced on March 25, 2025, that his office is probing EPIC for potential violations of consumer protection laws. Just a day later, the Texas Funeral Service Commission slapped EPIC with a cease-and-desist order for running unlicensed funeral operations. Twelve state agencies are now circling this project, sniffing out illegal activity tied to what Abbott calls a “controversial Islamic housing development.” This isn’t a neighborhood; it’s a fortress, a self-contained bubble that critics fear could operate outside Texas law, thumbing its nose at our Constitution.

And it’s not just Plano. In Frisco, the Islamic Center of Quad Cities (ICQC) is flexing its muscle, snapping up 5.7 acres at a prime intersection and raising $2.4 million in mere months to build a mega-mosque. Construction’s already underway, with keynote speakers like Mohamad Baajour from EPIC stoking the flames at fundraisers. RAIR Foundation warns this is part of a nationwide “Hijrah” strategy – migration to establish Islamic dominance in non-Muslim lands. Sound far-fetched? Tell that to the folks in Josephine, Texas, where EPIC’s Yasir Qadhi envisions “EPIC Ranches,” peddling a utopian Muslim community with clinics, stores, and maybe even a university – all financed by “Islamic loans.” Who’s footing the bill for this takeover? Texans deserve to know!

The numbers don’t lie. Texas is home to nearly 500,000 Muslims – 1.7% of our population – and this number is growing rapidly. Dallas has been dubbed the “Medina of America” by some Islamic leaders, a reference to the Prophet Muhammad’s stronghold. Over 60 Sunni and five Shia mosques are spread across the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex alone, with organizations like the Islamic Association of North Texas and the Muslim Legal Fund of America establishing their presence in Richardson. Houston boasts over 209 mosques, making it the area with the largest Muslim population in the South. This isn’t assimilation – it’s colonization, plain and simple.

Now, let’s be clear: every Muslim in Texas is under suspicion unless they openly, loudly, and unequivocally denounce these schemes to plant Sharia roots in our state. Silence isn’t enough – loyalty to Texas and its values must be proven, not assumed.

When projects like EPIC City flaunt Sharia vibes and dodge state laws, it is a slap in the face to every Texan who cherishes our way of life. Governor Abbott is right – “All entities in Texas must follow state law, not Sharia law.” Yet the EPIC crowd claims it’s a “diverse community open to all.” Spare us the platitudes! If it’s so innocent, why the secrecy, the fraud probes, the funeral violations? Why the whispers of “no-go zones” where American values might not apply?

This is a fight for Texas’ soul. Our state’s history is forged in blood and defiance – think San Jacinto, think the Texas Rangers. We don’t bow to foreign creeds or let our laws be trampled. The left will cry “Islamophobia,” but this isn’t about hate – it’s about survival. When Islamic centers skirt regulations, hoard land, and push for a parallel society, it’s not bigotry to call it out – it’s patriotism. X posts are buzzing with outrage, with users like KamVTV thanking Paxton for stepping up and warning of “Islamic compounds” led by those who “don’t like the West.” They’re not wrong to worry.

We can’t allow Texas to become a testing ground for Sharia. Our leaders – Abbott, Paxton, and every red-blooded lawmaker – must combat this stealth invasion with every tool available to them. Investigations are a starting point, but we need action: shut down these projects, enforce our laws, and send a message that Texas will never bend the knee. This is our land, our heritage, our fight. Rise up, Texans – before it’s too late!
