(a month ago)Hafiz Egzon Ibrahim is denied access to the United States. Kosovo's renowned Kosovo Kurdish recital, which had planned a religious tour of some Islamic centres in America, has been banned by the American immigration authorities just arrived at Boston Airport and then turned back with the first flight from where it came from, teaches “Ma Shqip”
Although the 24-year-old from Kosovo had a regular American visa on passport, issued by the US Embassy in Pristina, sources of “Ma Shqip” near immigration in Boston suggest it was questioned by border control officers and later denied access to American territory. So far the official reason for this decision has not been made public.
The news was later confirmed by the Islamic headquarters itself that invited him to the U.S. In a response to social networks, “Al Huda Community Center”, Boston's Muslim centre of Chelsea, announced the annulment of the activity that was scheduled for Sunday evening.
In the first post published about 12:30 local time in the U.S., the centre wrote: “due to unforeseen circumstances, Charles Egzon was not allowed into the US, despite a valid visa. As a result, the U.S. tour has been cancelled at the moment. We appreciate your understanding and prayer during this time. ”
But just a few hours later, the post has been edited and the wording has been changed. In the second response, the centre avoids the direct mention of U.S. entry and writes: “due to unforeseen circumstances, we regret that the Czar Egzon tour has been postponed until a second announcement. We're currently working on redefining dates and getting updates as soon as possible, in chess Allah. We appreciate your support and thank you for your patience and prayers during this time. ”
“Al Huda Society” is an Islamic centre that works as a mosque, religious school and activities center for the Muslim community in the Boston area. Religious lectures, Koran lessons and programs for Muslim youth in Massachusetts are being held for more than 20 years.
“Ma sources Shqip” have provided no details on the concrete reason to reject Hafiz Egzon Ibrahimi's entry into the US, while even American authorities have made no public comment on the case. However, after Donald Trump's return to the White House, controls at border points and American airports have been significantly toughed. The immigration officers have full authority to refuse a person's entry even when he has a valid American visa.
Hafiz Egzon Ibrahim was scheduled to conduct certain religious activities at the U.S. Islamic Centre, but after the ban at the airport, the whole tour was cancelled. So far, Abraham himself has made no public reaction to the event.
The 24-year-old from Kosovo has become well-known in social networks and in the Islamic world for reciting the Koran, where it has participated in international competitions and has been praised for its voice. For years he also interprets Ilah in Albanian, using musical elements, which has brought criticism from various religious circles. Shortly ago he was also invited to Turkey in an event attended by Turkish President Recep Tayip Erdogan.
