ASAN (KXAN) – A lawsuit on Tuesday claims that the social media group was distinguished against a Muslim employee because of his religious beliefs and expressions of solidarity with civilians living in Palestine.
Mohamed Firras, a former dead employee, said that his faith invites him to search for those who face conflicts.
“Everything I do, I am trying to connect it to society,” Majeed said in an interview with KXan on Thursday. “When this accident began to reveal seriously since October 7, [2023]I could not hinder myself, right? This is just something I am. This is part of Islam. “
KXAN arrived at Meta to comment on Tuesday. We did not receive a response.
Majid’s lawsuit describes how his solidarity appeared to Palestine. From his account, his actions were similar to supporting his colleagues for civilians in Ukraine and Israel. However, he will gain a reprimand for him to “publish sabotage issues”, according to the lawsuit.
“The non -Muslim prosecutor’s colleagues were allowed to express support and sympathy for Jewish victims and other global crises without oversight, including jobs that condemn anti -Semitism, express Israeli hostages support, and share personal stories related to October 7 attacks.”
Majeed said that before October 2023, he felt supported and heard by his colleagues and managers. But in the midst of the Israeli invasion of Gaza, he felt wasolated.
“I really felt lonely because, once again, I was just my authenticity, talking to people, and talking to my manager about what I feel, and what is happening in the world, and I did not feel that I was forced this to anyone.” “It seemed to be the natural thing to do, based on my five and six -year experience with the company.”
the Council of American Islamic RelationsOr Cairo, helped MAJEED to prepare and filed a lawsuit.
“They were standing for human rights, and they defended the rights of Muslims for several years, and their team was like the best in every step on the road,” he said.
