Mamdani knows what he is saying here. After invoking Islam and Muhammad as a model for mass migration, Zohran Mamdani echoes hijrah - a doctrine that marks Islam’s turn from preaching to political and military rule.

Migration jihad.

The Hijrah in Islam, by Robert Spencer, Geller Report, 7 February 2026:

What is happening in Europe today, and in North America as well, is not a “refugee crisis.” It is a hijrah.

Hijrah, or jihad by emigration, is, according to Islamic tradition, the migration or journey of Muhammad and his followers from Mecca to Yathrib, later renamed by him to Medina, in the year 622 CE. It was after the hijrah that Muhammad for the first time became not just a preacher of religious ideas, but a political and military leader...

To emigrate in the cause of Allah - that is, to move to a new land in order to bring Islam there, is considered in Islam to be a highly meritorious act...

This hijrah will transform Europe forever, overtaxing the welfare economies of its wealthiest nations and altering the cultural landscape beyond recognition. Yet the serious public discussion that needs to be had about this crisis is shouted down by the usual nonsense: if you don’t accept the brave new world that is sure to bring more jihad and more Sharia to Europe, you’re a Nazi and a racist.

Meanwhile, no one is bothering even to ask, much less answer, one central question: why is it incumbent upon Europe have to absorb all these refugees? Why not Saudi Arabia or the other Muslim countries that are oil-rich and have plenty of space? The answer is unspoken because non-Muslim authorities refuse to believe it and Muslims don’t want it stated or known: these refugees have to go to Europe because this is a hijrah.
