Jewish groups, Israel’s government are attacking the fundamental rights of American citizens

Two things can be true at the same time. But one cannot be a helpless victim and a powerful destroyer of others at the same time.

Word play and playing with Palestinian lives

“A ‘lie’ is ‘a false statement made with a deliberate attempt to deceive; an intentional untruth.’  Everyone, at some point in life, has told a lie. But ‘telling a lie’ does not necessarily make one a liar. A ‘liar’ is ‘a person who has lied, or lies repeatedly.’ According to the Teachings of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, a ‘liar’...

Ramadan: A Month of Love, Patience and Mercy

“The servants of the Beneficent are they who walk on the earth in humility, and when the ignorant address them, they say, Peace!” ~ Holy Qur’an, 25:63 The Holy Month of Ramadan is a month of reflection and restraint from the natural hungers of food, water and appetites.

What does Farrakhan have to say about the crisis in the Middle East? That cry and question were answered as the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan delivered a powerful three-and-a-half-hour keynote address to thousands to close out the Nation of Islam’s annual Saviours’ Day convention in Detroit where we started in 1930. Now there is another question: What will those who heard...
