Zohran Mamdani will be first mayor to be sworn in on Quran during New York City inauguration

Zohran Mamdani will be sworn in by New York Attorney General Letitia James, Sen. Bernie Sanders in separate New Year’s Day ceremonies

New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani’s campaign confirmed on Wednesday he will make a historical move on New Year’s Day, using the Quran during his swearing-in ceremony.

Mamdani, a 34-year-old Ugandan-born socialist, will be the first Muslim mayor of New York City and the first mayor to be sworn in using the Quran, the central religious text of Islam.

New York Attorney General Letitia James will host a private midnight ceremony at Old City Hall Station, a historical decommissioned subway station, before he is sworn in during a public inauguration on the steps of City Hall by Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., Thursday afternoon.

He will use two family Qurans, as well as one that belonged to writer and Puerto Rican activist Arturo Schomburg, who built the foundation for Harlem’s Schomburg Center for research in Black culture.

    1. New York City residents have forgotten what happened on September 11, 2021. But what can I say, that muslin barack HUSSEIN obama was president for 8 destructive years from 2008 until 2016. Wake up people, let Trump make America great again.

  1. This is absolutely the best thing that could have happened! “progressives” don’t understand that socialism has never worked, ever. He will fall flat on his face, and NYC will eat him alive. Then what will AOC, Scary Sanders and the rest of the looney tunes crowd say? Probably a bunch of “it wasn’t fair” types of things. Get out the popcorn ‘cause this will be fun!

  2. Remember, the religion that he swore his oath of office’s versikn of the bible on allows him to decieve in the furtherance of his religion….
    The stupid voters of NY city will get what they voted for…

  3. People are stupid. Our nation suffers from it. Most of our citizens don’t bother to vote, but the invaders always do. These foreigners shouldn’t be able to hold any government positions to include judges. The same is true for those with dual citizenships as well; all governing positions of power should only be held by accountable citizens that prioritizes the United States as their only focus. You can’t serve 2 masters as there is no room for error these days. We need to make voting mandatory as part of citizenship and maybe then our citizens would want to participate more. It sucks that I served my country and it’s turned into this.
