THE CULTURAL REVOLUTION BEGINS | IN SEARCH OF THE MESSIAH
“Surely We revealed it on the Night of Majesty–And what will make thee comprehend what the Night of Majesty is? The Night of Majesty is better than a thousand months.” –Holy Qur’an, Surah 97, verses 1-3
In reviewing the subject matter of my last several articles dealing with my early journeys overseas to Egypt and the Middle East, in the company of my children in 1975 and again in 1976, I have come to see it as a prelude to my first meeting with the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan and his family from the time of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad’s departure in February 1975. This meeting took place on the Fourth of July, 1976, following my second trip to Egypt in which I obtained scholarships for my children to begin studies at Al-Azhar University. It was at that meeting when I learned that the Honorable Minister Farrakhan had also recently returned from a journey to the Middle East which included Arabia and Egypt. He was preparing a movie script on the life of Malcolm X. It so happened that I, too, had begun writing my memoirs of my life’s journey with the Honorable Elijah Muhammad with the hope to one day make a major film on his life and Divine Teachings. Those written memoirs that I completed in 1976 were kept on the shelf without its full completion until today. I have come to understand that the second sequel of my memoirs must include the life work of the Honorable Minister Farrakhan as the Greatest Helper of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad under Almighty God Allah’s Divine Command.
In 1977, one year following that first meeting, he was divinely guided to rebuild the Divine Work and Teachings of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad which is the second sequel in the Resurrection of our dead nation that is leading us to the threshold of the new life of the Hereafter. Brother Jabril Muhammad first approached the Honorable Minister Farrakhan in Hollywood prior to 1977 with his inspirational book covering the most important aspect of the life of Jesus and the resurrection that he was divinely guided to write by the Honorable Elijah Muhammad. The second person that he was spiritually guided to contact before 1977 was myself, who with my four children, were located on the West Coast of California in the Oakland Bay area. The unfolding of events that brought the three of us together culminated in October 1977 in Chicago, Illinois, at the home of the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan and his family on Damen Avenue. Further details of how this meeting came about will be discussed at a later time; but it is from those initial unfolding events when I recognized my duty to help my brother, the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, in the overall mission of my husband’s Divine Work in every way possible with the certain knowledge that He Lives!
During this period of time, I became aware that I was always in tune with the thinking of my brother in many ways within the timeline of events occurring in his own life. I was so programmed as his sister to be a witness of his Great Mission to help the Honorable Elijah Muhammad to get us safely across the river to the other side of our liberation struggle. As I complete my memoirs and tell my story, it will include not only my witnessing of my extraordinary brother but will also include the part that Brother Jabril Muhammad has played in solidifying our Faith on the basis of our great friendship and dedication to the Divine Teaching and Work of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad with a further bearing of witness that he lives!
While the Honorable Elijah Muhammad was in Mexico, beginning in the spring of the Easter holiday in April 1974, he began sharing with me much information pertaining to the future. One of his talks was on Egypt and his desire to revisit this country again. I am reflecting on a discussion with Brother Jabril Muhammad who stated that when war would break out in the East that there would be revolution in Egypt as well in the very streets of Cairo, right up to the entrance of Al-Azhar University. In the last several weeks now, we have witnessed a protest movement in the streets of Cairo never before witnessed in her history, with its citizens gathering peacefully even for a Million Man March.
This protest movement has been carried to the entrance of the famous museum of antiquities which included a break-in to one of its display exhibits. We have seen military guards posted in front of the Great Pyramids on the Gizeh Plateau outside of Cairo. We may suppose that crowds gathered in the streets in the vicinity of Al-Azhar University which is located in the old district of Cairo. Other cities in Egypt also erupted in protest demonstrations, such as, Alexandria, in and around the Suez Canal zone, as well as the borders between Egypt and Israel in the area of Gaza. What is all of this commotion a sign of? Simply stated, it is a sign of the end of one world going out and the beginning of a new world order coming in to take its place. This revolution of the people is neither the works of terrorists or religious fanatics or militant Islam; it is the reaction of the common will of the people to see a change for better in their lives. It is not simply the ruling dictatorial regimes who are at fault. It is the yearning of the people to be free in spirit and in the consciousness of their being, who are expressing 100 percent dissatisfaction with the world we are in.
More than 1,400 years ago, the Divine Warning was revealed to the world of religion through the Revelation of the Holy Qur’an to be united in one accord and Submission to the Will of the One God. This was the sign of Prophet Muhammad’s Majestic Nght Journey in which Allah took him from the Holy City (Mecca) to the remote (Western) Mosque at Jerusalem’s Dome of the Rock, a sign that all people and all religions are one. The sacredness of Jerusalem is an injunction enjoined upon all three Faiths of Muslims, Christians and Jews to be united as one. It was at this sacred temple mosque in Jerusalem, according to Jewish and Christian tradition, that Abraham was called to sacrifice his son, Isaac, by the command of Allah. It is at this sanctuary, which includes the Aqsa Mosque and its environs reaching to the Wailing Wall of the Jews which is a part of the ancient temple of Solomon buried beneath these precincts. And today, this is the center of strife and conflict that has existed since the Crusades nearly a thousand years ago.
Recent news videos have reported sightings of a bright object being seen by crowds over this same sacred sight of the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem. The sign of Muhammad’s ascension into the seventh heavens over 1,400 years ago took place at this same sacred sight and serves as a sign of the Night Journey and Ascension of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad in 1975. Ten years later, the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan experienced his ascension into a great Metallic Wheel and City in the sky called the Mother Plane in Tepotzlan, Mexico in 1985. Note that the number and the date 1975, contains (975) which equals Surah 97, containing five verses. This Surah is entitled, “The Night of Majesty.” From the date 975, we have the foundation of Al-Azhar Mosque and University in Cairo, Egypt. Counting forward 1,000 years, we come to the date of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad’s departure in 1975. The one thousandth month referred to in this chapter equals approximately 83 years in a century that equals nearly the same time when the Honorable Minister Farrakhan had his own Night Journey to the Great Mother Plane where he communed with the Honorable Elijah Muhammad.
We can now see how past, present and future events are constantly repeating themselves in the present moment of time. Is the sighting of the bright object over the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem a sign that this experience is about to be repeated in our own lifetime with witnesses throughout the world?
“The angels and the Spirit descend in it by the permission of their Lord–for every affair–Peace! It is till the rising of the morning.” –Holy Qur’an, Surah 97, verses 4-5
