Judge Ali Defends Her Faith and Justice | Jackson News

from Jackson News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Newly sworn-in municipal judge Assma Ali in Benoit, Mississippi, is standing firm against online backlash questioning her faith and falsely linking her to Sharia law. Born and raised in the U.S., Ali clarifies her role is to uphold the Constitution and enforce existing laws—not impose any religious doctrine. She’s turning criticism into motivation, pledging to serve with integrity and be judged by her record as an attorney, not her religion. Local officials support her, affirming her qualifications have nothing to do with her Muslim identity. With her court handling traffic and minor offenses, Ali is ready to get to work—focused on justice, not noise. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
