Political Views

In January 2020, he led the support for the designation of the United States The Pentagon as a terrorist organization in response to the assassination of Qasem Soleimani Abathi also advocated against the ability for citizens to have 'other' listed as a religious affiliation on their ID cards as it would infer that the state recognizes a religion other than Islam.
