"And We sent not before thee any but men to
whom We sent revelation; so ask the followers of the Reminder if you
know not. Nor did We give them bodies not eating food, nor did they
abide. Then We made Our promise good to them; so We delivered them and
whom We pleased, and We destroyed the extravagant. Certainly We have
revealed to you a Book which will give you eminence. Do you not then
understand?" �Holy Qur�an, Surah 21, verses 7-10.
In one of the Questions and Answers given to the Student Body of
the Nation of Islam to study through the Divine Teachings of the
Honorable Elijah Muhammad, we are asked�"What is the duty of a
civilized person?" Answer�"To teach the uncivilized people, who are
savage�civilization, righteousness, the knowledge of himself, the
science of everything in life, love, peace and happiness." The Wisdom
Teachings of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad are consistent with Truth
and the Revelation of both Bible and Holy Qur�an. The Reminder spoken
of in the above verse of the Holy Qur�an is emploring a mentally dead
people who have lost the knowledge of themselves, to reflect
upon the Truthful Message that has been revealed to them from a warner
raised in their midst.
The Divine Work of the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan is not
independent from that of his Teacher, the Honorable Elijah Muhammad.
He was appointed by God as his Greatest Helper, as revealed in the
Divine Scripture as Aaron was to Moses. He is his mouthpiece as the
carrier of the Divine Word in the absence of his Teacher. The Trumpet
is the perfect symbol of his work during this period of time of world
crisis. Someone must be raised, by God�s Permission, to warn the
citizens of the Planet Earth of the dire consequences of war and its
aftermath before it is too late.
In perfect harmony with our Nation�s Lesson Assignment, he is
performing the duty of a civilized person in an ever advancing and
threatening savage world environment. If I were to humbly address the
President of the United States, Mr. George W. Bush and his
Administration, as well as the entire consortium of world leaders, I
would remind them that there is no more excellent person or broker for
world peace than the divine personage of the Honorable Minister
Louis Farrakhan in this Present Hour of confusion and chaos. The
President and his cabinet and joint chiefs of staff should have
nothing to fear regarding the intentions of this Honorable
Minister to establish a balanced and equitable effort in the
peace process in the Middle East or elsewhere. Speaking as a
Divine Advisor and Reminder of God�s Truth to us all, why would you
hesitate to afford him the proper acknowledgment of his efforts in his
Peace Mission to avert the catastrophe of war?
Minister Farrakhan is a man born of slave parents who served this
country faithfully for over 400 years of cruel bondage in America. Are
we not reminded in this history of Israel�s bitter sojourn in
Egypt under a tyrannical Pharaoh some nearly 4,000 years ago?
Have we not learned the lessons of the past, to avoid its
repetition in this Present Hour? Let America and all of its
citizens repent of our past and present evils; let us reconcile
our differences, let us take the steps of Atonement while there is yet
time to avert the alarming tragedy that will most certainly
follow if we continue to pursue a war policy that will end in death
and destruction to untold millions. America is now struggling
against itself and its better judgment to act now and responsibly in
acknowledging its wrong and with due repentence become as that Great
City Ninevah was in avoiding the Shock of the Hour of God�s Judgment.
Let us make haste to listen to the Temperant Voice of a Jonah in
our midst. If attentatively listened to, this Divine Mercy from
Allah in the person of the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan could
save This Great City and Country of America from Divine Chastisement
that is standing at our doors!
"And We created not the heaven and the earth
and what is between them for sport. Had We wished to take a pastime,
We would have taken it from before Ourselves; by no means would We do
(so). Nay, We hurl the Truth against falsehood, so it knocks out its
brains, and lo! it vanishes. And woe to you for what you describe! And
to Him belongs whoever is in the heavens and the earth. And those who
are with Him are not too proud to serve Him, nor are they weary."
�Holy Qur�an, Surah 21, verses 16-19.
To be continued.
