Mohammed Magid, born in Sudan in 1965 and who arrived in the United States in 1987 after studying in Soddy Arabia
, is the current iman of the Virginia-based All Dulles Area Moslem Society Center (ADAMS), which is affiliated with the Islamic Society of North America, or ISNA, an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation terror case that proved HLF’s connections to the terrorist group Hamas, a regional Iranian catspaw, and other radical Islamic entities. ADAMS is a network of mosques and Islamic community centers in Washington area. The United States designated HLF as a terrorist group in 2001 and became defunct. The case resulted in 108 guilty verdicts and several years later, five of its leaders were convicted and sentenced to decades in federal prison.
He was "the B.O. regime’s go-to guy for Moslem outreach and advised on international affairs and counterterrorism."
Magid is scheduled to be part of the "Rabbis Roundtable Breakfast" on Monday in a discussion titled "Building a Golden Age of Moslem-Jewish Relations: Overcoming Challenges and Seizing Opportunities." The session is only open to rabbinic participants at the conference. AJC spokesperson Kenneth Bandler appeared to dismiss the allegations against Magid, telling JNS, "We know Imam Majid. He is a member of the Moslem Jewish Advisory Council."
