During a conference held in May 2013, Qureshi complained that the media often frames views such as "the death penalty for homosexuals" or the subjugation of women as only being held by radical Muslims.
"I always try to tell them that ... these are general views that every Muslim actually has ... every Muslim believes in these things," says Qureshi.
It has also been confirmed that just weeks before Omar Mateen's rampage, Muslim cleric Sheikh Farrokh Sekaleshfar called for gays to be executed during a sermon at an Orlando-area mosque.
Sekaleshfar also called for homosexuals to be killed "out of compassion."
"Death is the sentence. There's nothing to be embarrassed about this. Death is the sentence," Sekaleshfar said during a 2013 sermon at the University of Michigan.
