Min. Farrakhan: A model student of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad
I apologize for the brief interruption in the flow of these articles. There was a mix up and as a result the last two articles were not the ones I had previously selected to complete this series of articles. I hope that you will review Vol. 27 No. 33 before reading this article. I thank you for your patience. —Jabril Muhammad
“If you are ungrateful, then surely Allah is above need of you. And He likes not ungratefulness in His servants. And if you are grateful, He likes it for you.” —Holy Qur’an 39:7
In Volume 25; Number 12 and repeated, in part, in Number 14 of The Final Call I wrote: “What is the best way to comprehend this whole ‘thing’ that has happened in America—from the appearance of God, to this moment, and what’s in the immediate future? Moreover, why ought we to understand this anyway?
“The best way to start, or begin, is by studying Minister Farrakhan. I intend, by the help of Allah and His Christ, to show and prove this to be true—be it the will of Allah—until it is ‘concluded’.”
In Farrakhan: The Traveler volume numbers 16-20 I wrote some of what I wrote in 1988 about Moses and the Wise man, as recorded in the Holy Qur’an, Surah 18: Verses 60-82. I did this to cover what our attitude ought not to be, through the example of the symbolic “Moses,” towards the two Messiahs, namely, the Honorable Elijah Muhammad and the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan.
By the word “our” I am referring to us who have accepted to become students of the teachings of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, under the direction of Minister Farrakhan.
I cited the references above to make it easier for my fellow students to locate the words that plainly tell the specific purpose and aim of this specific series of articles.
After I finish taking up what our attitude towards Minister Farrakhan must be, for us to become successful students of God’s word, I intend to cover Minister Farrakhan’s example as a model student, of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, of the word of God. Then we’ll get to the proofs, Allah willing.
Although many wonderful significant events occurred, during this past Saviours’ Day Convention, the addresses made by Minister Farrakhan were especially significant because they were marked by certain finality.
The reality of this “finality” was emphasized in what he told me (while he was in Phoenix, Arizona) of his intention for the talks he was preparing and in what he told me on the phone after he delivered his Saviours’ Day address and still deeper a week later when he called me after he delivered his address in Mosque Maryam.
He said to me after he delivered part one, “It is done!” His words after the second part were, “It’s now really done!”
These words of his deserve as much attention as his addresses.
I went to the Bible because I knew the phrase “It is done” was used in it. But I was not sure of the context. I was almost sure this phrase was not in the Holy Qur’an though the idea is there, but put in different words.
“It is done” is mentioned two times in the Old Testament and three times in the New Testament; twice in the last book, Revelations.
InRevelations 16:17 reads: “The seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air, and out of the temple came a loud voice from the throne, saying, ‘It is done!’ ”
Revelations 21:6,7 reads: “He said to me: ‘It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To him who is thirsty I will give to drink without cost from the spring of the water of life.’ He who overcomes will inherit all this, and I will be his God and he will be my son.”
Paul wrote near to the end of his work with the early Christians, in 2 Timothy 4:7: “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.”
Is there a connection between these acts? Do they bear on our lives and the lives of our loved ones right now? Yes. Yes.
Please, let’s not say we don’t have time to study God’s word, yet we breathe His air, and benefit from His mercy and grace, ev-ery fraction of second of every minute we live. That is gross ingratitude! Moreover, we are severely hurt by our stupidity—not Him.
*****
To go deeper in God’s reason for the narrative of Moses and the Wise man let’s remember that the two Messiahs now for a bit over 70 years have taught that our history is written under the histories of other people in the Torah, the Gospels and the Holy Qur’an. It must be read and understood in that light.
This narrative is composed of the relative few verses of the Holy Qur’an, which is a witness of the Bible’s truths, which is made of histories, ceremonial laws, other kinds of writings and, of course, prophecies. Both books were written ultimately for this day. There is not a page of these books that are not written about you.

Now, on the subject of Moses and the Wise man more questions could be raised to deepen our thinking and feelings into the words and ways of Allah. For instance, why did the Wise man tell Moses that he would not tell him the “whys” of his actions until a certain time? Was it a matter of timing? If so what did timing have to do with informing him of the reasons of his actions, which would bring him into the regions of higher wisdom? Why could he not tell him before, or at least, at the same time he did what he did?
