The Curtis Culwell Center hosted a conference titled “Stand with the Prophet in Honor and Respect” that called out “Ready to defeat Islamophobia?” according to the Sound Vision Foundation, “a not for profit organization serving Muslims.”   This Islamist rally was held Saturday, January 17, 2015 @. 5:00 pm.

The Curtis Culwell Center is a Garland Independent School District property.

The Sound Vision Foundation's web site states in part:

Ready to defeat Islamophobia?

This is not an event. It is the beginning of a movement. A movement to defend Prophet Muhammad, his person, and his message. Salla Allahu Alaihe wa Sallam.
 
This benefit will raise funds to establish a Strategic Communication Center for the Muslim community, which will develop effective responses to anti-Islamic attacks, as well as to train young Muslims in media.

Here are the conference speakers.

Imam Siraj Wahhaj (according to The Clarion Project)

• Wahhaj was listed as an “unindicted person who may be alleged as co-conspirators” in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.
• Wahhaj supports the implementation of Sharia (Islamic law) governance, including its criminal punishments. “Islam is better than democracy.  Allah will cause his deen [Islam as a complete way of life], Islam to prevail over every kind of system, and you know what?  It will happen,” he has preached.
• In September 2013, the NYPD justified its surveillance of Masjid at-Taqwa by pointing to evidence of terrorist and criminal activity there. The assistant imam is suspected of using the mosque to raise money for terrorist groups.
• Wahhaj has been a Vice President of the Islamic Society of North America since 1997 and was a member of the North American Islamic Trust's Board of Advisors from 1989 to 1993.

Abdul Malik Mujahid (one who wages jihad), (according to CreepingSharia) said “Qital [killing] is an essential element of Islam. And sometimes you don’t like it. Qital is ordained upon you, though it is hateful to you, but it may happen that you hate a thing which is good for you, and it may happen that you love a thing which is bad for you….And one example is, now we have 60 or so Muslim countries, and not a single one of them wants to go for Qital and Jihad for Bosnia. Qital is ordained upon you though it is hateful to you."
