密歇根州民主党参议员候选人今年早些时候在播客节目中，将自己“激进”的政策立场与耶稣基督的教义相提并论。
在5月播出的一期《进步基督徒播客》中，阿卜杜勒·埃尔赛义德被问及他的穆斯林信仰如何推动其参议院竞选的政策和立场。
该播客主持人之一布莱尔·斯托牧师指出，在中期选举周期的多场进步派竞选活动中，从基督教视角来看，《全民医保》、反战、抵制政治中的企业资金等政策“与耶稣的教义极为相似”。

“然而，这些纲领和政策却被贴上激进的标签。我们都知道你也被称作激进分子，”斯托说，“那你如何看待这个标签？这些看似源自基督教、且在伊斯兰教中也有共通之处的信仰，为何会被视为如此激进？”
“好吧，你知道的，耶稣，愿他平安与祝福降临，在当时也被视为激进分子，”埃尔赛义德回应道，“在腐败时代愿意挺身而出，本身就带有激进的特质。我认为我们所有人都必须明白，受欢迎程度和时代潮流并不能代表真理。而我们当下所处的时代，人们正试图将腐败正常化。”

埃尔赛义德目前正参与一场可能决定参议院权力平衡的角逐，他击败众议员黑利·史蒂文斯（密歇根州民主党）的胜利，撼动了华盛顿特区的民主党建制派。
共和党将密歇根视为巩固并扩大其在参议院微弱多数席位的必胜之地，并认为前众议员迈克·罗杰斯——他在2024年参议院选举中以微弱劣势输给密歇根州民主党参议员埃莉萨·斯洛特金——能够击败这位崛起的进步派人士埃尔赛义德。
随着两人竞选活动升温，双方都将信仰作为政治攻击武器。

全国共和党参议员委员会发言人贝尔纳黛特·布雷斯林对福克斯新闻数字频道表示：“一名自称对伊斯兰教法负有‘义务’的激进穆斯林，从为针对密歇根州犹太裔的暴力袭击辩解，到将自己与耶稣基督相提并论。”
“阿卜杜勒·埃尔赛义德不适合代表密歇根州，而他每次攻击其他信仰时，都在证明这一点，”她补充道。
本月早些时候，埃尔赛义德在《受够了》播客节目中，被主持人詹妮弗·韦尔奇问及罗杰斯针对其穆斯林信仰的攻击。韦尔奇还指责罗杰斯是“彻头彻尾的基督教伪君子”，原因是其信仰联盟成员与活基督教会连锁机构存在关联，该机构此前深陷儿童性虐待丑闻。

埃尔赛义德表示，罗杰斯无视基督教的“核心教义”。
“他要躲在这个信仰的假象背后，而显然，如果你遵循耶稣基督的教义，那就是要颠覆最富有和最有权势者的体系，用他们的权力和金钱奴役他人的方式，”埃尔赛义德说，“那才是核心教义。”

El-Sayed makes Jesus comparison when pressed on socialist views: ‘Radical in his time, too’
August 20, 2026 12:39pm EDT / Fox News
Michigan’s Democratic Senate nominee compared his “radical” policy positions to Jesus Christ’s teachings during a podcast appearance earlier this year.
During an episode of the Progressive Christians Podcast that aired in May, Abdul El-Sayed was asked how his faith as a Muslim spurs his policies and positions in his campaign for the Senate.
Rev. Blair Stowe, one of the podcast’s hosts, noted that through many progressive races during the midterm election cycle where policies like Medicare for all, being anti-war and resisting corporate money in politics, from the Christian lens, appeared to be “very similar to the teachings of Jesus.”

“And yet, those platforms and those policies are being named radical. And we know that you have been referred to as a radical,” Stowe said. “So what do you think about that title, that these things that are, that seem to come very easily from the Christian faith that are shared in the Muslim faith? Like, why is that considered so radical?”
“Well, you know, Jesus, peace and blessings be upon him, was considered radical in his time too,” El-Sayed responded. “And there is a radical nature to being willing to stand forthright in a time of corruption, and I think it’s important for all of us to realize that popularity and zeitgeist don’t make truth. And we live in a time where people are trying to normalize corruption.”
DEMS’ LEFTWARD LURCH GETS LEGS AS EL-SAYED’S MICHIGAN SENATE VICTORY SPARKS PARTY DEBATE

El-Sayed is currently locked in a contest that could determine the balance of power in the Senate, and one where his victory against Rep. Haley Stevens, D-Mich., shook the Democratic establishment in Washington, D.C.
Republicans see Michigan as a winnable opportunity on their path to maintaining and growing their thin majority in the upper chamber and believe former Rep. Mike Rogers, who narrowly lost in his bid for the Senate in 2024 against Sen. Elissa Slotkin, D-Mich., can topple the insurgent progressive El-Sayed.
And as the campaign has heated up between the two of them, both have used faith as a political cudgel.

“A radical Muslim with a self-proclaimed ‘obligation’ to Sharia law has gone from excusing violent attacks on Jewish Michiganders to comparing himself to Jesus Christ,” National Republican Senatorial Committee spokeswoman Bernadette Breslin told Fox News Digital.
“Abdul El-Sayed is unfit to represent Michigan, and he proves it every time he attacks other faiths,” she continued.
During an appearance on the “I’ve Had It” podcast earlier this month, El-Sayed was asked by host Jennifer Welch about Rogers going after him for his Muslim faith, where she accused him of being a “complete Christian hypocrite” over reported ties between members of his faith coalition and the Living Word Church franchise, which has been rocked by child sex abuse scandals.

El-Sayed said Rogers was ignoring the “essential teaching” of Christianity.
“He’s going to hide behind this simulacrum of faith, which clearly, you know, if you followed the teachings of Jesus Christ, it was about upending the system against the richest and most powerful in the ways that they used their power and their money to subjugate other people,” El-Sayed said. “Like, that was the essential teaching.”
