‘True Islam’ campaign comes to Mass. State House

The Boston Globe reports:

Hamid Malik’s garments stood out amid the business suits and dresses seen at lunchtime Wednesday in the State House.

He was covered in a brown knee-length jacket called an achkan, worn by men in South Asian nations. On his head rested a triangular fur hat known as a Jinnah cap.

Malik is a regional imam for the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, an Islamic sect founded in 1889. Together with other Ahmadiyya adherents, he was at the State House’s Great Hall of Flags to address the misconceptions some Americans have about Islam.

Progressives in their "promoting religion" mood.
