Controversies

Adam Saleh collaborated video with Sheikh Akbar titled Racial Profiling Experiment uploaded on his channel in October 2014 went viral creating some controversies around the world. The video, which received over 200,000 views, saw Saleh and Sheikh Akbar first wear a European outfit to argue in front of a police officer, but he ignored them. They two then changed their outfit but this time dressed in Muslim clothes and repeated their initial confrontation. Aside from the having massive views on YouTube, the video also caught the attention of the traditional media with people criticising the police officer.

After admitting that the video was staged, The New York chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, which had tweeted that the video was an example of discrimination against Muslims later, demanded Saleh and Akbar to apologise. The council stated that "Muslims are already under the microscope and to do this to gain some cheap publicity is totally unacceptable. There should be no attempt to justify it; they should just apologise and ask people to forgive them for their irresponsible actions."

Adam Saleh also made claims in December 2016, through a video post of being thrown out of a Delta Airlines flight at Heathrow Airport for speaking Arabic. However, some passengers on the plane debunked his claims saying that Saleh was disturbing other passengers. Communication from Delta also stated that Saleh was shouting and provoked other passengers. He claims, however, resurrected the debate over the Right to Fly.
