The inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump will feature a Muslim cleric who has faced criticism for his ties to Iran and refusal to condemn Hezbollah as a terrorist organization, Husham Al-Husainy, in a benediction. Al-Husaini has been accused of promoting anti-Semitic and pro-Iranian views, sparking concerns among some groups. The decision to have him deliver the benediction has raised questions about Trump's commitment to inclusivity and diversity. The cleric's past statements have also led some to accuse him of being a sympathizer with extremist groups.
