Oklahoma Muslims celebrated a historic moment Monday when a Muslim faith leader gave the daily prayer in the state Senate.
Thought to be the first Muslim invocation in the Oklahoma Senate, Imad Enchassi’s prayer was years in the making.
The senior imam of the Islamic Society of Greater Oklahoma City applied to lead the daily prayer in the Oklahoma House in 2017, but his application was denied with no explanation — spurring controversy.
