International outcry over Muslim father’s claim that teacher called cops on boy who only said “Allah” and “boom”

A 6-year-old Muslim boy who can’t speak was reported by his substitute teacher after she claims he said “Allah” and “boom.” The Fox 26 story below says: “The 6-year-old boy also has intellectual difficulties and doesn’t speak. ‘He needs care all the time,’ said Maher.”

Then why is he in an ordinary elementary school? And is Maher Suleiman claiming that the school or the substitute teacher is making up the claim that he said “Allah” and “boom”? Where did he learn to say “Allah” and boom” together?

The story is getting international coverage, with a predictable slant. “Boom” is not mentioned in these headlines, which try to give the impression that the teacher called the police just because the boy was Muslim:

The father is claiming this is the worst experience of his life, and that this is discrimination. Yet there are no details given about what happened to him, or how he was treated.

Because this took place at a school, there will be no details released to the public. Except those given to us by Quanell X, who is identified in the story below as a “community activist,” but who is actually the leader of the New Black Panthers in Houston. Mr. X claims the substitute teacher accused the 6-year-old of sexual harassment. How he got this outlandish claim is not explained.

After a three-week investigation, the police have found no need for their involvement. However, the Child Protective services investigation remains open.

Clearly there is much more to this odd story than we are being told.

“Muslim special needs student’s father says teacher called police on boy,” by Randy Wallace, Fox 26, November 30, 2017 (thanks to Larry):

PEARLAND, Texas (FOX 26) – “Mohammad was born with Down Syndrome chromosome 21,” said his father Maher Suleiman.

The 6-year-old boy also has intellectual difficulties and doesn’t speak.

“He needs care all the time,” said Maher.

Mohammad attends C. J. Harris Elementary School in Pearland.

Maher said his son’s regular teacher left and a substitute teacher called Pearland police about his son. He also said the school told the officer that Mohammad could talk.

“It’s not true, he doesn’t speak at all,” said Maher. He also said the substitute teacher told police the boy would reportedly say “Allah” and “boom.”

“She claimed he was a terrorist,” said Maher. “This is so stupid, it’s discrimination. Actually, it’s not implied discrimination, it’s actual discrimination.”

The teacher’s reported accusation against the special needs child prompted a police investigation and one by Child Protective Services as well.

“The last three to four weeks have been the hardest of my life,” said Maher. “My wife and kids were crying a few days ago and I told them everything is fine.”

“In my opinion, based on everything I heard from the police department and speaking with the administration from the school, that this was a story piece milled together by a substitute teacher alleging this child was sexually harassing her, the teacher, and possibly being a terrorist,” said community activist Quanell X. “A 6-year-old kid.”

The Pearland Police Department told FOX 26 News that they did conduct an investigation but found no need for police involvement….
