Muslim Community Patrols Continue Sharia Policing New York Neighborhoods

Since 2019, Muslim Community Patrols are driving through New York neighborhoods.

“Dressed like police officers and driving cars identical to police squad cars”

They are stopping to harass people for things like “drinking alcohol, claiming this is a Muslim area and alcohol is not permitted.”

The Muslim Community Patrol & Services (MCPS) operates volunteer patrols in Brooklyn, New York, using NYPD-like Ford Taurus vehicles with red and white lights to deter crime around mosques and schools.

Muslims are the only immigrant group who come to the West with a ready made model of society they believe to be superior to Western law and they work furiously, by all means, to impose it. Under Islam, shariah (Islamic) law supersedes Western law. Anywhere Western law and Shariah law conflict, it is always Western law that must give way. What those of us working in defense of freedom did not expect, was the craven capitulation and cowardice by Western left elites to Islamic supremacy.

GROK:

Muslim Community Patrols (MCPs) have been reported in New York City, particularly in Brooklyn, since at least 2018. These groups, such as the Muslim Community Patrol & Services (MCPS), describe themselves as neighborhood watch organizations aimed at protecting Muslim communities from hate crimes and fostering community safety. They operate in areas with significant Muslim populations, like Bay Ridge, and focus on issues like vandalism, harassment, or suspicious activity around mosques and community centers. Their vehicles and uniforms resemble NYPD styling, which has sparked both concern and controversy among some residents and observers.
Recent posts on X (e.g., from April 2025) claim MCPs are patrolling neighborhoods, with some alleging they stop people for activities like drinking alcohol, asserting these are “Muslim areas” where such behavior is prohibited. However, these claims lack corroboration from credible news sources and may reflect exaggerated or biased sentiments. No recent, verified reports from major outlets like CBS New York, The New York Times, or Fox News confirm these specific allegations of harassment or enforcement of religious rules. Instead, coverage from 2019 (e.g., The New York Times) and earlier X posts indicate MCPs are unarmed, civilian groups without legal authority to enforce laws, and their activities are meant to supplement, not replace, police efforts. The NYPD has stated MCP vehicles are not sanctioned by them and are subject to legal oversight, though no widespread arrests or legal actions against MCPs have been reported recently., clarify their role as a protective community initiative
