Siddique has been infamous for his incendiary rhetoric, fear-mongering and calls for 'divine intervention' for the death of 50 crore Indians.<ref>{{cite web|accessdate=2021-03-03|title=Bombs, shotguns recovered from ISF worker's house in West Bengal|url=http://www.opindia.com/2021/03/bombs-shotguns-recovered-from-isf-workers-house-in-west-bengal/|date=3 March 2021}}</ref> He was seen addressing a large gathering of followers and praying to Allah to kill 50 crore Indians with the virus.
 
On February 26, 2020, a video of Siddique had gone viral on social media in which he was heard referring to anti-Hindu Delhi riots and saying: {{quote|Recently I have got the news that mosques are being set on fire, mosques are being burnt for the last two days. I think something is going to happen within a month. May Allah accept our prayers. May Allah send such a terrible virus to India that ten to twenty to fifty crore people die in India. Am I saying something wrong? It is absolutely blissful.}} He also said that he did not mind whether he would die or survive but he would surely take Hindus with him.

In 2019, after the Indian government passed the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), Siddiqui claimed that the citizenship law was unfair to the Muslim population of the country and threatened to block Kolkata airport if the law was not revoked. He urged Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee to either move the Supreme Court or bring a resolution against CAA in State Assembly or else risk losing the support of Muslims in West Bengal.<ref name="OPIN" />
