104 books

In actuality, Prophet Muhammad of Arabia (PBUH) is mentioned quite frequently in the teachings of The Honorable Elijah Muhammad. Most notably, Master Fard Muhammad assigned 104 books for The Honorable Elijah Muhammad to read and the majority of them were about the life of Prophet Muhammad of Arabia (PBUH). As Muslims in the Nation of Islam we honor, respect, and study him as we strive to live a lifestyle that is in accord with the principles that he exemplified by Allah’s permission.

In 2007, we focus our attention on the most recent representative of Allah in our midst. Muhammad of 1400 years ago (PBUH) served as a sign for the modern Muhammad who will fulfill that which he prophesied. He knew that the Nation of Islam that Allah built through him would fall and that a rightly guided reformer would be raised to re-establish the religion and establish the Holy Qur’an as the law throughout the world.

Master W. Fard Muhammad is the Mahdi that Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) saw coming long after his work was completed and long after his community strayed away from his teachings. The Honorable Elijah Muhammad is the messenger of Allah and the modern Muhammad who is fulfilling all that was predicted of Muhammad in the Holy Qur’an. The Honorable Louis Farrakhan is an extension of The Honorable Elijah Muhammad and is, consequently, our focal point today. Through him, we are reacquainted with all of the prophets and reconnected to Allah Himself.
