El-Sayed’s half sister offered Oct 7 ‘blessing,’ one year after Hamas attack: ‘Allahu Akbar’

University of Chicago professor Eman Abdelhadi, the half sister of Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed, delivered an " October 7th blessing, " one year after Hamas militants killed approximately 1,200 people in widespread terrorist attacks.

"I want to say, Allahu Akbar," Abdelhadi said , opening her blessing in a video posted to Instagram Oct.

7, 2024.

"That phrase means God is greater, and it's an important phrase in the Muslim tradition .

"It's one that I've been thinking about a lot over the last year, because it's a phrase that reminds us that no matter how great the brutality, the oppression, the intensity of what we're going through, the horizon of justice is just around the corner." Throughout her video commemorating the anniversary of terrorist attacks, Abdelhadi makes no mention of the Jews killed by Hamas .

She filmed her blessing wearing a keffiyeh, a traditional cloth associated with Palestinian militant movements.

EL-SAYED’S HALF SISTER REVEALED AS RADICAL PROFESSOR ARRESTED FOR ALLEGEDLY ASSAULTING A COP AT ANTI-ICE RIOT "Abdul loves his sister and also disagrees with her on a number of political positions and the rhetoric she's chosen to use, including on foreign policy," a campaign spokeswoman told Fox News Digital when asked about the video.

"But Abdul is the one on the ballot, and his record of public service and his platform is what matters to voters here in Michigan.

His campaign has always been about his love for America and Michigan." "There is something greater than even the strongest armies, and, for me, that's God," Abdelhadi continued in the video.

"Reflecting on that reaffirms my commitment to justice, my commitment not to get caught up in the narratives that colonial powers enforce on us. … I hope you know that we have a lot of work ahead of us and that we need each other to do that work.

We have an imperative to not just imagine a better future, but to build one together.

"I’ll see you on the streets." The video was posted on Instagram Oct.

7, 2024, in a collaborative post by "Rabbis4Ceasefire" and Abdelhadi’s account.

Rabbis4Ceasefire described it in a caption on the post as an "October 7th blessing from Eman Abdelhadi, Scholar, Writer & Organizer." In a new comment added Friday, Abdelhadi said Rabbis4Ceasefire had organized and named the event as "a moment of grief for lives lost between 10/7/23 and 10/7/2024," asked her to participate and described the video as her "offering" to the gathering.
