New revelations about Abdul El-Sayed’s birth mother, Fatten Elkomy, reveal her ties to the Islamic American Relief Agency—designated a terrorist-supporting group by the U.S. Treasury in 2004—with documented involvement in funding Hamas and illegal wire transfers as early as 1999. While Elkomy was never charged, IARA pleaded guilty to funneling nearly $1.4 million to Iraq. These disclosures come amid scrutiny of El-Sayed’s campaign donations from CAIR, which faces terrorism designations in some states and has drawn political criticism. During a Senate hearing, his father-in-law’s CAIR Michigan leadership was questioned. El-Sayed’s team has yet to respond.
