Nomani has argued in favor of government surveillance programs in the fight against Islamic terrorism, saying that society's "sense of political correctness has kept us from sensible law-enforcement strategies that look at Muslims, mosques, and Islamic organizations." She argues the Muslim community does not do a good job of policing itself and that public areas were "natural meeting spot for criminals." The leader of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy, Zuhdi Jasser, agreed with Nomani's argument that such spying tactics were warranted. Nomani has also argued in favor of "racial and religious profiling," explaining that the "common denominator" of many terrorist with anti-American views is they are Muslim. She reiterated that "the Muslim community failed to police [themselves" and that such profiling on the basis of "religion, race and ethnicity" is a necessary "part of keeping our skies safe."
