A power struggle breaks out between Sheikh Rahman and Mustafa Shalabi, Abdullah Azzam’s hand- picked imam, who runs the Alkifah Center. Shalabi appeals to Ali Mohamed for help. Ali drives Shalabi’s wife to the airport as Mustafa plans to escape home to Cairo. But he never makes it. Shalabi is later found shot, stabbed, and bludgeoned with a baseball bat at his Seagate, Brooklyn, home. Abouhalima IDs the body for the NYPD, but is never charged. The voice of Wadih El-Hage, a Lebanese Christian convert to Islam, is heard on Shalabi’s answering machine. Thousands of dollars in Alkifah funds are missing from the crime scene. Ali Mohamed has secreted away most of the Alkifah’s most incriminating documents. The murder in the NYPD’s 61st Precinct remains unsolved.
