The Fruit of Islam, the men who belong to the Nation of Islam, strive to be of service to their communities. Every week, they go into the streets across the country, in cities large and small, to deliver the Teachings of the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad through The Final Call newspaper.
The men of the Nation of Islam are trained to come to their people with the spirit of a “saviour,” as exemplified by the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan. Minister Farrakhan spoke to the F.O.I., in “The Meaning of F.O.I.,” published in 1983 about the mission of a saviour.
“Pick up your dictionary and look up the word ‘Saviour’—one who saves. And when you look in the mirror at yourself, ‘I am sent as a Saviour of my Black brothers and sisters. I am a Saviour. I am a Deliverer. I am a Redeemer.’”
Minister Farrakhan continued, “Think about those words. You and I are acting under the Saving Grace and Power of the Saviour—The Most Honorable Eliah Muhammad who is acting under the power of the Lord of the Worlds. So we got power to save. How do you know we got power? Because the word of God coming through me saved you. And the word of God coming through you will save anybody who will listen to you if you will study and qualify yourself for your work as a Saviour of our people.”
Thank you, F.O.I., for your continued work in the mission of being little saviours to our people.
