Historic moment in New York City as Zohran Mamdani is sworn in as the city’s first Muslim mayor, placing his hand on two Qurans during the oath of office. One Quran belonged to his grandfather, symbolizing personal heritage and family faith. The second, a historic Qur’an from the Schomburg Center, reflects centuries of Muslim presence in the city. Administered by New York Attorney General Letitia James just after midnight, the dual Qurans tell a powerful story of identity, history, and community as Mamdani begins his term amid calls for reform in America’s largest city. <br /> <br />#ZohranMamdani #FirstMuslimMayor #TwoQurans #NYCMayorHistory #MamdaniSwearingIn #SchomburgCenterQuran #NYCHistory #MuslimHeritage #HistoricOath #MayorOathCeremony #NewYorkNews #MamdaniMayor #NYCPolitics #CulturalHistory #FaithAndFamily <br />
