It is my sincere belief that the Holy Scriptures are interconnected and that the Holy Qur'an is the last chapter and the key to understanding all scriptures. This book is dedicated to all the people who have struggle for freedom throughout the ages, but it is especially dedicated to the five greatest African American men born in North America in my opinion (1.) Imam W. Deen Mohammed, (2.) Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., (3.) Mr. Elijah Muhammad, (4.) Mr. Abdul Malik Shabazz also known as Malcolm X, and finally Mr. Fredrick Douglas. I believe the vision seen by Dr. King in his I have a dream speech will only be fulfilled in the religion of Al Islaam (Islam). In this book, I use the spelling Imaam for Imam, Islaam for Islam because I believe it gives the novice a better sense of how the words should be pronounced. In this booklet I use the name Sharif Abdul Ali for Noble Drew Ali in many instances. I also use the terms Moor or Moorish and Bilalian interchangeably, both names point to the Islamic connection or history of the so-called Blackman in the wilderness of North America.

Download or read book Our Family s Evolution From Nationalism to Al Islam written by Abdul Karim Hasan and published by Bait-Cal Publishing. This book was released on 2019-03-22 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Our Family's Evolution-From Nationalism to Al-Islam" delivers an authentic historical account of how America's indigenous black population came upon the religion of Al-Islam, and its spread to African-American communities across the country. Discover this extraordinary history through a compelling memoir written by well-respected Muslim-American pioneer Abdul Karim Hasan, whose family has been part of this experience over 90 years. A. K. Hasan takes the reader on a journey of unbelievable clarity and cause, breaking down in clear view the unlikely chain of events that introduced Al-Islam to the African-American community. From the end of Slavery through the modern era, he delivers a vivid family account of early Black Nationalism, and how it created a path to universal Islam. Beginning with the Marcus Garvey and Noble Drew Ali movements early in the 20th century, Hasan traces this evolutionary process through his family's remarkable history and his personal experiences with the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, Malcolm X, and the Nation of Islam. Hasan joined the Nation of Islam in 1956 and quickly rose through the ranks. Working with the leadership, he helped grow the Nation of Islam into America's most massive Black movement. The Honorable Elijah Muhammad would send him to Los Angeles in 1972, making Hasan the official west-coast representative leader. In 1975, he converted to universal Islam, under the guidance and leadership of Imam W. Deen Mohammed (son of Elijah Muhammad). Abdul Karim Hasan is currently the director and resident Imam of Masjid Bilal Islamic Center in Los Angeles, the oldest identifiable Muslim community in the city. He is a renowned Muslim historian whose travels have seen him recognized by Islamic leaders around the world, which was highlighted by receiving the Da'wah Medal of Excellence from Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak in 1993. As ambassador and associate of late Muslim-American leader, Imam W. Deen Mohammed he traveled to nearly every corner of the globe. It was during their extended time together that Imam Mohammed suggested he write this "important book" about his family's history. Now, much to the benefit of American history, A. K. Hasan has responded with this literary masterpiece that will forever define the idiosyncratic, symbiotic evolution of Africans and Islam in America.

Book excerpt: One of the most progressive movements for Freedom, Justice and Equality in African American history has been Islam. Transported into America among the very first slaves, it has survived for four centuries under the most difficult of circumstances. Yet, it has produced some of the most influential leaders among Black Americans including Elijah Muhammad, Malcolm X, Imam Warithu Deen Mohammed, Louis Farrakhan and many others. In A Black Mans Journey in America: Glimpses of Islam, Conversations and Travels, I have placed my familys history within the context of that Islamic heritage. Further, I have attempted to unravel the method through which African American Muslims were so often forced to embrace as a means of survival.
Download or read book Is Elijah Muhammad the Offspring of Noble Drew Ali and Marcus Garvey written by Hakim Nasir and published by Elijah Muhammad Books.com. This book was released on 2008-12 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the claim of Elijah Muhammad's roots. It has been said that success is an orphan with many fathers. The history, work and success of Elijah Muhammad is a classic example. Although during the great migration of blacks from the south to the north, many attempts were made to address their plight in the inner cities, the true solution went unaddressed until Master Fard Muhammad (God in person) came and raised up, then taught Elijah Muhammad how to raise the mentally dead so-called Negroes of America. The book lays out interesting arguments which enables the reader to see the clear evidence. The Fruit never falls far from the tree from whence it came.
Download or read book Wahhabi Islam From Revival and Reform to Global Jihad written by Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding Georgetown University Natana J. Delong-Bas Senior Research Assistant and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2004-07-15 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before 9/11, few Westerners had heard of Wahhabism. Today, it is a household word. Frequently mentioned in association with Osama bin Laden, Wahhabism is portrayed by the media and public officials as an intolerant, puritanical, militant interpretation of Islam that calls for the wholesale destruction of the West in a jihad of global proportions. In the first study ever undertaken of the writings of Wahhabism's founder, Muhammad Ibn Abd al-Wahhab (1702-1791), Natana DeLong-Bas shatters these stereotypes and misconceptions. Her reading of Ibn Abd al-Wahhab's works produces a revisionist thesis: Ibn Abd al-Wahhab was not the godfather of contemporary terrorist movements. Rather, he was a voice of reform, reflecting mainstream 18th-century Islamic thought. His vision of Islamic society was based upon a monotheism in which Muslims, Christians and Jews were to enjoy peaceful co-existence and cooperative commercial and treaty relations. Eschewing medieval interpretations of the Quran and hadith (sayings and deeds of the prophet Muhammad), Ibn Abd al-Wahhab called for direct, historically contextualized interpretation of scripture by both women and men. His understanding of theology and Islamic law was rooted in Quranic values, rather than literal interpretations. A strong proponent of women's rights, he called for a balance of rights between women and men both within marriage and in access to education and public space. In the most comprehensive study of Ibn Abd al-Wahhab's interpretation of jihad ever written, DeLong-Bas details a vision in which jihad is strictly limited to the self-defense of the Muslim community against military aggression. Contemporary extremists like Osama bin Laden do not have their origins in Wahhabism, she shows. The hallmark jihadi focus on a cult of martyrdom, the strict division of the world into two necessarily opposing spheres, the wholescale destruction of both civilian life and property, and the call for global jihad are entirely absent from Ibn Abd al-Wahhab's writings. Instead, the militant stance of contemporary jihadism lies in adherence to the writings of the medieval scholar, Ibn Taymiyya, and the 20th century Egyptian radical, Sayyid Qutb. This pathbreaking book fills an enormous gap in the literature about Wahhabism by returning to the original writings of its founder. Bound to be controversial, it will be impossible to ignore.

This book was released on 2015-08-18 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Athaan in the Bull City: Building Durham's Islamic Community tells the little-known story of the growth of the Islamic community in Durham, North Carolina. Drawing upon his own knowledge of the founding and development of Jamaat Ibad Ar-Rahman, Inc., Nazeeh Z. Abdul-Hakeem, the organization's principal founder, draws together personal recollections and the details of Durham's major Islamic organization to tell about Durham's burgeoning Islamic community. Reaching back across the community's history of more than thirty years, The Athaan in the Bull City recounts how Islam's foundations in Durham rest upon the lives of Black American Muslims. With the passing of years, the community has grown and has changed, as arriving immigrants, Muslims from around the world, have given the community a decidedly international perspective and outlook.
Download or read book The Columbia Sourcebook of Muslims in the United States written by Edward E. Curtis and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edward E. Curtis "finds Islam" in the American experience through an unusually personal selection of essays and documents. Sampling from speeches, interviews, editorials, stories, song lyrics, articles, autobiographies, blogs, and other sources, Curtis creates a patchwork narrative of Muslims from diverse ethnic and class backgrounds, religious orientations, and political affiliations. He begins with a history of Muslims in the United States, featuring the voices of an enslaved African Muslim, a Syrian Muslim sodbuster, a South Asian mystic-musician, and Malcolm X. Then he explores contemporary issues concerning Islam and gender, the involvement of Muslims in American politics, and emerging forms of Islamic spirituality. In constructing his history, Curtis draws on the work of Muslim feminists, social conservatives, interfaith activists, missionaries, and politicians, as well as Muslim rappers and legal experts. He also includes records from the large-scale migrations of the 1880s; racial, ethnic, and religious trends of the 1960s; writings from second-generation and African American Muslims; and discussions of Islam in the public square. Intimate and highly informed, this sourcebook not only provides a crucial corrective to the rhetoric of suspicion and fear surrounding current discussions of Muslims in the United States, but it also emphasizes the continuing impact of Muslims on American society and culture.
