At the taking of the picture above of AlHaj AbdulMaleek AsShabazz he CONDONED/ABHORED the idea of 'blackX'

Qubilah Shabazz · Ilyasah Shabazz · Malikah Shabazz · Gamilah Lumumba Shabazz · Attallah Shabazz · Malaak Shabazz and wife Mrs.Shabazz

-------LETS at LEAST honor this Great American by USING the NAME that he Died for..........

AlHaj AbdulMaleek AsShabazz

Malcolm X (/ˈmælkəm ˈɛks/; May 19, 1925 – February 21, 1965), born Malcolm Little and also known as El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz[A] (Arabic: الحاجّ مالك الشباز‎), was an African-American Muslim minister and a human rights activist. To his admirers he was a courageous advocate for the rights of blacks, a man who indicted white America in the harshest terms for its crimes against black Americans; detractors accused him of preaching racism and violence. He has been called one of the greatest and most influential African Americans in history.

How Splendid!

Thank you Gentlemen.

@Robert there is still growth in those who were not aware of the knowledge of the name of AlHai AbudulMaleek AsShabazz. Continuous education of our history is very much alive to learn. Such events as this one has contributed to knowing more. "Our minds should be as sponges..we should absorb and then expand."--MIISRAEL

The name Abdul is a name that means "servant of God." The name Malik means "king" and the name Shabazz means "mighty and glorious." Therefore the name Al Hajj Abdul Malik Al-Shabazz means "A king who served God in a mighty and glorious way." He was one of the world’s most committed and visionary freedom fighters.

His contributions have never been as widely celebrated as the annual Martin Luther King Jr. national holiday. But they are every bit as important and should be remembered and celebrated in some meaningful way each year.

GREAT comment --- in this MONTH of February which some call "blackHistoryMonth"

---IT HAS BEEN --50 YEARS!-- and we Americans STILL do not do HISTORY, Scholarship and Science well

----- in fact for 'blackAmericans' to write in 2015----malcolmx --------is a JOKE of HISTORY

----A JOKE TO THE MAJORITY OF AMERICANS

I hate to comment on a commentator but the selfProfessed 'whiteMan' steveAdam takes the JOKE further--ALL LIES

----HISTORICAL FACTS from the mouth of Al Hajj Abdul Malik Al-Shabazz

The color-blindness of the Muslim world's religious society and the color-blindness of the Muslim world's human society; these two influences had each day been making a greater impact and an increasing persuasion against my previous way of thinking...

Displaying a spirit of unity and brotherhood that my experiences in America led me to believe never could exist between the white and the non-white."

“Never have I witnessed such sincere hospitality and overwhelming spirit of true brotherhood as is practiced by people of all colors and races here in this ancient Holy Land, the home of Abraham, Muhammad and all the other Prophets of the Holy Scriptures.

America needs to understand Islam, because this is the one religion that erases from its society the race problem. Throughout my travels in the Muslim world, I have met, talked to, even eaten with people who in America would have been considered ‘white,’ but the ‘white’ attitude had been removed from their minds by the religion of Islam.

The true Islam has shown me that a blanket indictment of all white people is as wrong as when whites make blanket indictments against blacks.

I am not a racist…. In the past I permitted myself to be used…to make sweeping indictments of all white people, the entire white race and these generalizations have caused injuries to some whites who perhaps did not deserve to be hurt. Because of the spiritual enlightenment which I was blessed to receive as a result of my recent pilgrimage to the Holy city of Mecca, I no longer subscribe to sweeping indictments of any one race. I am now striving to live the life of a true…Muslim. I must repeat that I am not a racist nor do I subscribe to the tenants of racism. I can state in all sincerity that I wish nothing but freedom, justice and equality, life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for all people.

“Never have I been so highly honored. Never have I been made to feel more humble and unworthy. Who would believe the blessings that have been heaped upon an American Negro? A few nights ago, a man who would be called in America a white man, a United Nations diplomat, an ambassador, a companion of kings, gave me his hotel suite, his bed. Never would I have even thought of dreaming that I would ever be a recipient of such honors – honors that in America would be bestowed upon a King – not a Negro.”

“All praise is due to Allah, the Lord of all the Worlds.

Sincerely,

Al-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz


LETS HONOR the TRUTH that he died for in his NAME ---- Al-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz

Is that from The Autobiography of Malcolm X?

@Butterfly; Your comments attributed valuable knowledge and information, of which I am thankful to receive. It is no doubt in my conclusion, that his life's purpose and work is worth remembering and worth to be shared to future generations.

@Robert, Let it be known, I do also; marvel with the scholarship you share and look I forward it very often.

And, Steve, has asked you a question..for continued a dialogue.

Mecca------------Chapter Seven

from

The Autobiography of Malcolm X 1964

The pilgrimage to Mecca, known as Hajj, is a religious obligation that every orthodox Muslim fulfills, if humanly able, at least once in his or her lifetime.

The Holy Quran says it, "Pilgrimage to the Ka'ba is a duty men owe to God; those who are able, make the journey."

Allah said: "And proclaim the pilgrimage among men; they will come to you on foot and upon each lean camel, they will come from every deep ravine."

At one or another college or university, usually in the in-formal gatherings after I had spoken, perhaps a dozen generally white-complexioned people would come up to me, identifying themselves as Arabian, Middle Eastern or North African Muslims who happened to be visiting, studying, or living in the United States. They had said to me that, my white-indicting statements notwithstanding, they felt that I was sincere in considering myself a Muslim—and they felt if I was exposed to what they always called "true Islam," I would "understand it, and embrace it." Automatically, as a follower of Elijah Muhammad, I had bridled whenever this was said.

But in the privacy of my own thoughts after several of these experiences, I did question myself: if one was sincere in professing a religion, why should he balk at broadening his knowledge of that religion?

Once in a conversation I broached this with Wallace Muhammad, Elijah Muhammad's son. He said that yes, certainly, a Muslim should seek to learn all that he could about Islam. I had always had a high opinion of Wallace Muhammad's opinion.

Thank you Robert.

Stereotypical tomTOMism?

if steveAdam 'the whiteman' does not agree with the African American Muslim BROTHER and Friend of Al-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz; RobertPowell-----youAll do NOT BELIEVE me?

what paganChristian Stereotypical negros---As Al-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz would say.......

No Robert, I can speak for myself only; I believe that all questions asked should be answered to the best of one's ability. As Al-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz also stated in his speech" I am not a racist" ...& nor am I a racist. I am blind when it comes to man's skin color, but I can see openly and clearly any man's actions.
Regarding Sterotype:
I do not think Al Hajj Malike El-Shabazz would ever use a statement calling such as
"pagan Christian Sterotypical Negroes" Prejudices can be shown in more than ways of skin color or nationality.
I believe it is a excuse to label persons I do not necessary know and therefore I lose the effect of be a person of equality.

If I believe you or not that is up to me, but is more importantly, is that I treat your fairly and most respect in my own actions toward you. Which I feel I do you and with everyone, If I am lacking in equal respect, I am seeking to improve my own self. This is what I think Al-Hajj Malik El- Shabazz would say. Respectfully so.

I can speak for myself only; I believe that all questions asked should be answered to the best of one's ability.

YOUR blog SUBJECT--CELEBRATION OF 50 YEARS THE DEATH OF MALCOLM X

++++++The event was part of a Black History Awareness month and the anniversary of 50 years commerance.

I, robertPowell, did ot bring up something called malcolmx--------YOU DID

I, robertPowell, did ot bring up something called blackHistory-----YOU DID

I ALSO read-----The BOOK in 1964 and knew the Man

YET --- YOU asked me

......"@Robert, Let it be known, I do also; marvel with the scholarship you share and look I forward it very often.

And, Steve, has asked you a question..for continued a dialogue........

YOU and steveAdam are DIALOGING a SUBJECT on YOUR BLOG and YOU know NOTHING?

I, robertPowell am aware that the BIGGEST Stereotype and Misconception that Al-Hajj Malik El- Shabazz is KNOWN for is that the negro is paganChristian made on a in the name of latinJesus PLANTATION

RESPECT his Life, his NAME and his WORKS......

Miisrael, have you read the Autobiography of Malcolm X? I have not but should have it by the end of the week.

@Robert, what other way is there to learn than to ask? What other way to know than to tell with scholarship? Then, in this I have practiced all respect . I can admit to knowing nothing, for as I often say I am always student, but I am not without eagerness to knowledge or respect. If I had not shown any respect of Al-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz 's life, I do not believe this blog would have come about..even using the name Malcolm X as it's title.
Through this action I have grown to a greater knowledge of him and RESPECT his life his name and his WORKS...

There is one knows everything and this is The Spirit of God. He is all knowing and he knows the deepest sections of my heart and by this Spirit I am vindicated that "To love is more important than any knowledge, or respect of men..
He looks over my faults, and teaches me to love everyone even those who has given misconception of His Son.
And I Love you. :)

@Steve, no I haven't read the book. Perhaps, I should l be putting it on my reading list!

I never shared this with the BlackInAmerica.com family, but my mother, who I'm named after, was a supporter of Al-Hajj Malik El Shabazz (Malcolm X). She and my father met him face to face, and my mother also served as a cook for Al Hajj Malik El Shabazz during his visit to the Tennessee area. Although I was 2 years old when Al Hajj Malik El Shabazz was assassinated in 1965, he was a brilliant public speaker and had incredible charisma.

When did Malcolm first use the name Malik El-Shabazz?

He began to use the name after his return to the U.S. after his pilgrimage to Mecca in 1964.

That is mostly what I've found but one source says he was using it by the late 50s and another that it was the name on his passport when he made hajj.

*******************************************************************************************************************

ElHajj, AlHajj----- is a Title that signifies that a person has completed the Hajj

In April 1964 Malik ElShabazz flew to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, as the start of his Hajj, the pilgrimage to Mecca obligatory for every Muslim who is able to do so.

However, he was delayed in Jeddah when his U.S. citizenship and inability to speak Arabic caused his status as a Muslim to be questioned.

He had received Abdul Rahman Hassan Azzam's book The Eternal Message of Muhammad with his visa approval, and now he contacted the author. Azzam's son arranged for his release and lent him his personal hotel suite. The next morning he learned that Prince Faisal had designated him a state guest

so of course ElHajj was added 10 Days Later as he completed Hajj......BUT as noted by the following news Source he had used Malik ElShabazz for sometime his trip In 1964

Malik El Shabazz in the following comments from his Playboy interview in 1963:

“When I’m traveling around the country, I use my real Muslim name, Malik Shabazz.

I make my hotel reservations under that name, and I always see the same thing I’ve just been telling you. I come to the desk and always see that “here-comes-a-Negro” look. It’s kind of a reserved, coldly tolerant cordiality. But when I say “Malik Shabazz,” their whole attitude changes: they snap to respect. They think I’m an African.

People say what’s in a name? There’s a whole lot in a name. The American black man is seeing the African respected as a human being.

The African gets respect because he has an identity and cultural roots. But most of all because the African owns some land. For these reasons he has his human rights recognized, and that makes his civil rights automatic.

El Hajj Malik El Shabazz expressed knowledge that he was not 'black'.

He and his followers were not and are not “negro, black or colored” as those are caste system terminologies.

To be negro is to be a beast or something that is without worth: an inanimate object.

To be black is to be dead: without life.

There is no national land mass, no national standard (flag) or no national identity termed black........”

Let us understand though that to the 1950-1960 American "public", American Law Enforcement, the negroChristians and ALL local governments----- he was not considered brilliant----- ........

@Sister Juanita, thanks for sharing a pleasant memory. I'm sure it's one you do treasure.

@Steve, Siebra, or anyone else--Do you know if he would call himself Malcolm X anytime after Mecca in his public speeches? Just curious...

He was and still is greatly known by the Malcolm X name.
I'm one of many hardly knew anything else, because I haven't read much of his life works --except for in movies and a few television documentaries. . I don't tend to think that name Malcolm X will fade away anytime soon, and will remain. This has been a great lesson for me.

Actually, Malcolm requested permission from The Honorable Elijah Muhammad to assume the name Malachi Shabazz in the 1950s. This was the first Muslim name Malcolm used, and he was using this name as soon as he learned of the NOI's teachings while in prison. Malcolm wrote a letter to President Harry Truman to protest the Korean War, and signed his name as Malachi Shabazz. He later used the name Malik El-Shabazz Al-Sabann, although in most public appearances remained identified as Malcolm X. After his split from the NOI, he made a pilgrimage to Mecca and added El-Hajj to his name.

I have received the answer to my question with your last comments. Thanks!

How very enlightening. Thank you all.

actually,Malik El-Shabazz never split with ANYONE!

HE FINALLY LEARNED TO READ ALQUR'AAN and followed the Sunnah of Mohamed(saw) AS was taught to him by the Family of Elijah Muhammad..........

........LIKE there brilliant words of incredible charisma from the Creator of Adaam(as)


Sûrat AlAhqâaf

(The Curved Sand-hills-twisted weakness) (XLVI)

In the Name of Allâah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

1. Hâ-Mîm.
2. The revelation of AlQur’âan is from Allâah, the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.

3. We created the heavens and the earth and all that is between them with Truth, and for an appointed term, yet those who are trespassers of the limits set by Allâah turn away from that which they are warned.

4. Say Mohamed to these pagans:

"Think about all or who that you call on besides Allâah?
Show me. What have they Created of the Earth?
Or have they a share in the Creation of the heavens?

Bring me a Book revealed before this, or some trace of knowledge in support of your claims, if you are Truthful!"

5. Who is more astray than one who invokes others than Allâah?

Others that may not answer him till the Day of Resurrection, and who are even unaware of their calls and invocations?
