A muslim couple were deplaned for allegedly "sweating" and saying the word "Allah" in a US bound plane. Pakistani-American couple has claimed that they were removed from a US-bound flight as an on board crew member felt "uncomfortable" after noticing that they were "sweating", saying "Allah" and texting. Faisal Ali and Nazia Ali were waiting for about 45 minutes on a Delta Air Lines flight in Paris to fly back to Cincinnati, Ohio when a Delta employee asked the couple to exit the aircraft as he needed to ask them questions. "We asked if we should get our stuff and he said, 'Yes, take all of your stuff as you won't be on that flight'," Ms Ali said. "That was really alarming." A French police officer was waiting outside the gate. "I was scared because it looked like some random guy was taking pictures of our passports on his personal phone," she said.

Nazia, 34, had removed her sneakers, finished sending a text message to her parents and was putting on headphones and settling into her seat for the nine-hour flight from Paris to Cincinnati when a Delta Air Lines crew member approached her and husband, Faisal. A flight crew member had complained to the pilot that she was uncomfortable with the Muslim couple a report said. The woman was wearing a head scarf and using a phone, and the man was sweating, she allegedly told the pilot. The couple, who have three young children under the age of five, were booked into a hotel by the airline overnight. "I told my four year old that you'll see me tomorrow, in another nine hours," she said. "But that didn't happen."
