classroom in Houston, Texas. With 25 seats for 35 students, teaching is

We
Must Depend on Allah and Ourselves
by Minister Louis Farrakhan
Who is better than Allah (God) to depend
on for our sustenance and the granting of our innermost desires? Who knows
what is best for us, other than Allah (God)? Oftimes we have desires
which, if fulfilled, would bring us great sorrow. However, if we are
strong enough to desire only that which pleases Allah (God), then we can
never suffer disappointment and grief over not fulfilling some cherished
desires.
