"Say,
0 people, if you are in doubt as to my religion (Islam), then
know that I do not serve those whom you serve besides Allah, who
will cause you to die (Holy Quran, 10:104)."
According to the past histories of prophets and reformers, the
very people to whom they were sent with the light of TRUTH were
their rejecters and even their enemies. When it comes the time
for a change in the life of a people, there are those who will
not appreciate a change. They are suspicious, in doubt to that
which is other than what they have been believing all their lives.
The people of Noah, Abraham, Moses and Jesus were in doubt as
to what those Prophets brought to them from Allah (God), until
Allah brought about a showdown between the two.
THE SO-CALLED American Negroes are so gravely deceived by the
white man's Christianity and Bible that they doubt everything
that has not the white man's approval. Again the time has arrived
for a change; this time it is universal and the so-called American
Negroes are now the great problem to awaken.
They are made to believe that all other than the Christian religion
is false and idol worship, while the Christians worship idol gods
in their churches and religious literature. They have statues
of wood, metal and imaginary pictures of God, angels, prophets
and disciples that they bow and revere them as if they could speak.
The worse of all, the pictures and statues are not of God, His
Angels, Prophets and Disciples of Jesus. Therefore, they are false
worshippers and ignorant enough to love the falsehood. Isaiah
and Ezekiel have well described them. The Christian believers
claim to believe in ONE GOD. Should not the Divine Supreme Being
destroy those who serve and worship gods other than He? Allah
(God) does not approve you and I worshipping His angels and prophets
as His equal. It is a disgrace.
The religion of Islam teaches that ALLAH in ONE GOD; again the
Holy Quran teaches that what you worship besides Allah is the
firewood of hell. You doubt the truth of Islam, while it is the
religion of Allah (God) and the Prophets whom you claim to believe.
The principles of belief in Islam are: One God, His Prophets,
His Scriptures, His Judgement, His Resurrection of the mental
dead. The main principles of action; The keeping up of prayer,
spending in the cause of truth, speak the truth regardless to
whom or what, be clean internal and external, love your brother-believers
as yourself, do good to all, kill no one whom Allah has not ordered
to be killed, set at liberty the captured believer, worship no
God by Allah, and fear no one but Allah. The above are the teachings
of the Prophets.
Why should you doubt Islam and you know that it is the truth?
There is no fear for you nor shall you grieve today. If you will
accept Allah and His religion - Islam. It is unlike your Christianity
which has really put fear in you, and your promise of help or
defense comes only after death. I am commanded that I should serve
Allah and to Him, I submit.
I hope to see you here on the 26th of this month for our
convention.
