Muslims Are Not Trying to Replace the Constitution

Claim

Islam is a political order that wants to replace the Constitution, not just a religion. So it can be banned.

Fact

The clip of the Muslim man saying the Quran should replace the Constitution at the beginning of this video is AI-generated.  

There is no evidence of any mainstream Muslim organizations or politicians in the United States attempting to replace the Constitution with the Quran.   

The First Amendment states that  “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.”

Islam is a religion practiced by about one percent of the U.S. population, not a political order; banning it would be unconstitutional.
