Looks like others have been taken in by the old stories about Jamaat al-Fuqra.

From CPT dossier of 2005

Members own government-contracted security agencies. Through twenty-five years of existence, followers have planned and executed dozens of faith-based firebombings and assassinations. One member was convicted of plotting with the first World Trade Center bombers. Other adherents are employed in toll booths and kiosks at sensitive New York City landmarks. On multiple occasions members have defrauded state governments of
millions of dollars and sent the proceeds to finance terrorist operations abroad. Firing ranges, gun smuggling, and an aircraft landing strip are the norm in the thirty-some isolated rural compounds throughout North America. The group is Jamaat al-Fuqra, (“Community of the Impoverished”) and it has been left off of the State Department’s annual Patterns of Global Terrorism since 1999.1 Vice Admiral Lowell E. Jacoby, Director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, delivers his annual testimony on current and
projected threats to the United States without mentioning the group.2 A Professor at New York University argues al-Fuqra’s non-profit fronts should be freed of government interference.3 Overshadowed by a world of al-Qaeda and weapons of mass destruction, Jamaat al-Fuqra may be the best positioned group to launch an assault on the United States, or more likely, help al-Qaeda to do so.

It’s a longish read, but interesting.
