Muhammad Shahidullah is a man of seeming contradictions.
An imam, he is active in interfaith outreach, speaking to the New York Police Department and visiting the White House in April as part of an interfaith delegation. In December 2017, he participated in an interfaith event organized at New York's 9/11 Tribute Museum, attended the United Nations World Interfaith Harmony Week a year earlier, and has been recognized in a New York City Council citation as "an outstanding citizen, one whom is worthy of the esteem of both our community and the great City of New York."
But Shahidullah also runs a proselytizing website, Dawah USA, that ostensibly seeks to invite people to Islam but in fact serves as a clearing house for extremist and Islamist propaganda, the Investigative Project on Terrorism finds.
