You can certainly sue. Your action would be for wrongful termination. In order to win, you would have to establish that your reason for wanting that day off is religious and that the employer knew this and fired you for that reason.

However, if you have historically been available for work on that day of the week, said that you would be available on that day when hired or if it can be proved that your reason for requesting off is non-religious, you would not be able to prevail.
