Minnesota awarded over $2 million to an Islamic group that fundraises for a charity linked to an al Qaeda affiliate.

The Islamic Association of North America , the recipient of the state grants from 2019 to 2024 , is fundraising after Hamas ’s Oct. 7 attack on Israel last year for Rahma Worldwide , a Michigan -based charity that says it is shipping humanitarian aid to Gaza .

Gov. Tim Walz has repeatedly hosted Muslim cleric Asad Zaman , who shared a pro-Adolf Hitler movie on social media.

Dhooye, who also goes by the name Hassan Mohamed Jama , came into the spotlight in 2011 after CBC News reported that the Somali community believed he was connected to a terrorism financing and recruitment operation.

He appears to be still involved with the Walz administration-backed group.
