ISLAM AGAINST RACISM AND PREJUDICE

BY

El Hajj Malik El Shabazz (malcolmX's letter)

Many Muslims who have been blessed to make Hajj often speak of how the journey is a life-changing experience. This is more the case for some than others.

Malcolm X is one Muslim who saw the light of true Islam through his Hajj in April 1964. As a former member and speaker for the Nation of Islam, a black spiritual and nationalist movement, he believed that the white man was the devil and the black man superior.

After leaving the Nation of Islam in March 1964, he made Hajj, which helped change his perspective on whites and racism completely.

Here is an excerpt of a letter El Hajj Malik El Shabazz wrote about his Hajj experience. In it, he explains what it was during this blessed journey that made him so profoundly shift his perspective on race and racism:

"There were tens of thousands of pilgrims, from all over the world. They were of all colors, from blue-eyed blondes to black-skinned Africans. But we were all participating in the same ritual, displaying a spirit of unity and brotherhood that my experiences in America had led me to believe never could exist between the white and the non-white.

You may be shocked by these words coming from me. But on this pilgrimage, what I have seen, and experienced, has forced me to rearrange much of my thought patterns previously held, and to toss aside some of my previous conclusions. This was not too difficult for me. Despite my firm convictions, I have been always a man who tries to face facts, and to accept the reality of life as new experience and new knowledge unfolds it. I have always kept an open mind, which is necessary to the flexibility that must go hand in hand with every form of intelligent search for truth.

During the past eleven days here in the Muslim world, I have eaten from the same plate, drunk from the same glass and slept in the same bed (or on the same rug)-while praying to the same God with fellow Muslims, whose eyes were the bluest of the blue, whose hair was the blondest of blond, and whose skin was the whitest of white. And in the words and in the actions and in the deeds of the �white' Muslims, I felt the same sincerity that I felt among the black African Muslims of Nigeria, Sudan and Ghana.

We are truly all the same-brothers.

The Believers of AlQur'aan and Sunnah of Mohamed(saw) ARE CONSISTANT with the Creator of Adaam(as)

This is part of the Book that El Hajj Malik El Shabazz was memorizing at his violent passing......

S�rat AlMu�min�n

(The Believers) XXIII
In the Name of All�ah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

1. Successful indeed are AlMu�min�n.

2. Those who offer their Sal�t (prayers) with all sincerity and full submissiveness.

3. Those who turn away from AlLaghw (dirty,evil, falsehood, fraud and all that All�ah has forbidden).

4. Those who pay AzZak�t.

5. And those who guard their chastity (private parts, from illegal s*xual thoughts and acts)

6. Except from their wives that their right hands possess, - for then, they are free from blame;

7. But whoever seeks beyond that, then those are the transgressors;

8. Those who are faithfully true to their Aman�t (all the duties which All�ah has ordained, honesty, moral responsibility and trusts) and to their covenants;

9. And those who strictly guard their Salaw�t (prayers) at their fixed stated hours.

10. These are indeed the inheritors

11. Who shall inherit AlFirdaus (Paradise).
They shall dwell there forever.

12. And indeed We created Adaam out of an extract of clay (water and earth).

13. We made from Adaam as a Nutfah , mixed drops of the male and female s*xual discharge and lodged it in a safe lodging, the womb of the woman.

14. Then We made AnNutfah into a clot (a piece of thick coagulated blood), then We made the clot into a little lump of flesh, then We made out of that little lump of flesh bones, then We clothed the bones with flesh, and then We brought it forth as another creation.

So Blessed is All�ah, the Creator.
