He's about as Muslim as Trump is a Christian.

He is a Muslim, but an adherent Muslim? Don't think I can call him that, especially when he is so left-leaning, which includes many left-leaning points that contradict Islamic teachings.

Islam strongly emphasizes caring for the poor, redistributing wealth through zakat (obligatory almsgiving), and opposing exploitation - ideas often associated with leftist ethics.

The concept of ummah (community) stresses collective welfare and social cohesion, similar to some socialist or communitarian ideals.

The Qur’an criticizes greed, excess, and social inequality - themes often taken up by progressive religious thinkers.

That is very precise 🧡
