DALLAS – In a powerful speech, Imam Omar Suleiman, President of Yaqeen Institute for Islamic Research called upon Americans to stand up for humanity and resist Donald Trump’s divisive policies.

The calls followed President Trump’s issuance of an executive order that temporarily bans entry to refugees and citizens of seven Muslim-majority countries, including Iraq, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Yemen, and Syria.

The order left many people stranded at major airports around the country, while others overseas were barred from boarding US-bound flights, brining tens of thousands of protesters to different airport across the US to protest the decision.
