A success that grows out of divine guidance

What's your opinion on this article?

My last article ended with these words: The Honorable Elijah Muhammad told us this would happen as early as 1956.  He may have said it earlier than 1956, but that is when I first learned of it. He wrote it in the Pittsburgh Courier. He said the Black pastors would one day become his good helpers.  This is now coming to pass. Again, it is taking place in connection (I should say as part of the outgrowth of) the work of the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan. We will come to this in a few weeks. The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan is fulfilling prophecies.

Go out at night and look at the stars.  Think over the wonderful and beautiful arrangement.  Consider the design.  Reflect over the movement of it all.  Peace, not chaos is the result of the very idea out of which the whole of Allah’s creation comes.  Think it over.  It is the manifestation of the creation, formulation, adaptation, arrangement, and design of an extremely intelligent Being.  We generally say this Being is “God.”

Not, however, until the Honorable Elijah Muhammad had been brought face-to-face with the reality of God.  No, God did not produce the universe and then leave it.  He was known to those whom He later created from Himself.  I will simply state here, as he taught us (and the world), that it was not until 66 trillion years ago that God withdrew His full or ultimate reality from the knowledge of the general public. That was when the moon was made—not created.  The moon and earth was once one.

Before I go further, let me quote from the Holy Qur’an, Surah 10:39 of the Yusuf Ali translation. “Nay, they charge with falsehood that whose knowledge they cannot compass, even before the elucidation thereof hath reached them ... .”

I cite this for the following reasons: Due to an impatience, borne of ignorance of the wisdom and ways of God and God-raised men, our people did not accept the Honorable Elijah Muhammad as they should have. Given all of the facts and circumstances they could not have done any better.  Well, we could have, but we did not because of the nature of our condition of mental slavery and its effect on our soul and heart. Toward the end of the first phase of his mission, our people began to recognize the Honorable Elijah Muhammad.

Now, although in certain respects it is not as intense, elements or aspects of the same condition exist now as the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan works and as he is about to depart to see his lord.  However, there are big differences.  The majority of our people are coming to the Honorable Elijah Muhammad via his Minister—the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan. They are much closer to him.  But as many Jews were by Paul, so are some who claim to be with the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, by the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan. They do not understand the moves that the Minister is making and have made because they do not compass the plan or pattern by which he moves. He was given that plan by the Honorable Elijah Muhammad—and it is all there in the Scriptures—the divine plan that was written in advance.

Likewise, some may misunderstand my witness to the Honorable Elijah Muhammad and the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan.  Hopefully, it will become plainer as we continue.

It took 6 years for the water that was on the moon to fall on the earth.  Now the earth has it all.  The moon has none. It took 6 years for Joshua to conquer the land.  It has been 66 trillion years since God has been known to the general public.  It is not until we get the 66th book of the Bible, that most Black folks read, that we come to the revelation of God. It is in the 19th chapter that Christ comes with an army.  It is 19 chapters be-tween No. 9 and No. 27 in the Holy Qur’an. Then there are 342 Arabic words between Bismillah, al-Rahman, al-Rahim, (roughly translated, “In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful”) and the place of the second Bismillah, (in chapter 27) where the Bismillah ap-pears again. It appears in verse 30.  Remember, the Bismillah, which is composed of 19 Arabic letters, is the foundation of the numerical code of which the Holy Qur’an is composed.

The Holy Qur’an was written by the Creator and Sustainer of the universe. If people would follow God’s guidance, they would be in tune with Him and His creation. Greater wisdom is utilized by God, in guiding people than is used in governing the rest of creation. Minister Farrakhan’s success grows out of the divine guidance, which governs people.

The Honorable Elijah Muhammad called the Temple in Chicago No. 2 and he called the Temple in New York City No. 7.  He called the Temple in Los Angeles No. 27. Minister Farrakhan’s sleep from March of 1975 into September of 1977 was exactly 30 months. Chapter 9 in the Holy Qur’an does not open with, nor does it contain, the Bismillah. However, the Bismillah ap-pears twice in chapter 27. And the second time in the 30th verse.  Two plus 7 equals 9, and 3 times 3 equals 9 and 3 plus 3 equals 6.  And there is much more.

Let me now explain how all of this connects to the rise, fall, and rise of Aaron and Peter/Paul and the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan. We have a very deep subject to study in all of this.

If this is your first time looking at this column, let me state that I’m not playing with numbers to make my points. That which has been covered clearly indicates that.

The Honorable Elijah Muhammad once said to Minister Farrakhan that No. 7 (the Temple in N.Y.C.) was like the heart of the Nation and that the Temple in Chicago (No. 2) was like the head or brains.  He then said he wanted the heart, in effect, to beat in accord with the head.

On another occasion he told his Minister, “I want your mind.” He then repeated this. I think it should be mentioned that the Honorable Elijah Muhammad had explained that and how Allah had taken over his head and heart.  The will of God and his will had become one.  Certainly, this was not achieved without hard work, testing, trials, and suffering.  (If you want to be one with God, you must come on the same path that involves sufferings.   Much of this is due to the condition God finds and brings us from.)

As I’ve explained in earlier articles, Minister Farrakhan had, what I’ll here call a spot, on his heart; a spot of hypocrisy (which he has dealt with publicly). The Honorable Elijah Muhammad knew all about it and worked to remove it. He worked for that oneness with—and for oneness in—his Minister in a most fascinating manner.

The Honorable Elijah Muhammad, from the study of the scriptures and the words of Master Fard Muhammad, came to see clearly what his son, Iman W. D. Muhammad and Minister Louis Farrakhan, would do.  He came to see clearly what was written of them in the plan of God, written of in advance.  He prepared what was necessary.

More next issue, Allah willing.
