Alhamdulillah! Raghad, the 10-year old Yemeni girl who had been stranded alone in Egypt for more than a month because of Trump’s travel bans, has been reunited with her family in San Francisco!

Our mission is to enhance the understanding of Islam, protect civil rights, empower American Muslims, and promote justice.
- We are mortified by @LondonBreed's letter, which uncritically repeats the Israeli propaganda justifying genocide. Her words further harm all of our communities here. That there is no mention of Israeli war crimes or rising Islamophobia is a glaring omission in and of itself. 1/3⬇️ My statement on the Board of Supervisor’s Gaza ceasefire resolution:
- CAIR Condemns Pelosi Smear that Gaza Ceasefire Protesters are Spreading ‘Mr. Putin’s Message’ 1/7
- We strongly denounce the termination of Sonoma State University (SSU) President Mike Lee. Lee's removal comes in the wake of his courageous decision to accept the demands of SSU students advocating on behalf of Palestinians in Gaza enduring Israel’s 7 months-long genocide.
- Today’s growing student movements, from #ColumbiaUniversity to #UCBerkeley to #USC, calling on their universities to divest from Israeli apartheid, echo the powerful legacy of Vietnam-era student protests, showcasing a deep-rooted tradition of activism for human rights. 1/4
- Read this op-ed by our Managing Attorney, Brittney Rezaei regarding the Biden administration not granting visas to diversity visa recipients due to the #MuslimBan.
- This is unacceptable. @sjpdchief must expedite the investigation and promptly terminate any current SJPD officers found engaging in hate speech and threats. If they speak this way online, we are not safe from them in our streets. sanjoseinside.com/news/sjpd-offi… via @sanjoseinside
- Congrats SF! Thousands of people emailed, called, attended, and spoke. Today by an 8:3 @sfbos vote, SF passed its #Gaza #ceasefire resolution. Thank you @AROCBayArea for leading an incredible coalition and turning out unprecedented numbers of San Franciscans united for peace.
- It's Muslim Advocacy Week and today we joined community members to speak with @SenAlexPadilla to advocate for legislation to protect our civil rights and promote justice. 💪🏾 #MuslimHillDay
- Ramadan greetings from Congresswoman @RashidaTlaib, the first Muslim woman to serve in the Michigan legislature, and one of the first two Muslim women elected to Congress!
00:00 - We sued @SouthwestAir today. They removed a college student from one of their flights because he was speaking Arabic. He's standing up for his rights: ca.cair.com/sfba/2018/02/c…
- We applaud @Oakland for unanimously passing a #Ceasefire Resolution tonight, joining Richmond in solidarity with #Palestine. The resolution: *Underscores the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza. 1/5
- Today is the 5th anniversary of the passing of the #MuslimBan. The hateful act has left families separated and thousands of people still unable to enter our nation. It's not enough to end the ban. @POTUS must address its ongoing harmful effects.
- This urgent step is needed to ensure no future administrations are able to implement Islamophobic and racist immigration policies. We call on the Senate to take immediate action to pass this legislation. ca.cair.com/sfba/news/coal…
