The Nation of Islam (N.O.I.) is a religiousorganization founded in Detroit, Michigan,United Statesby Wallace D. Fard Muhammadin July 1930, with theself-proclaimed goalof resurrecting the spiritual,mental, social, and economic condition of theblack men andwomen of America. The N.O.I. also promotes the belief thatGodwill bring about auniversal government of peace.[1] Mainstream Muslims consider the group a hereticalsectofIslam due to the differing beliefs of the concept of God, race, prophecy, and manyothers.[2] However, in recent years the group has come a little closer to orthodox Islam byobservingRamadan and the Friday prayers.
Since 1978, Louis Farrakhan has been the leader of a reconstituted N.O.I., the originalorganization having been renamed and dissolved by Warith Deen Muhammad. TheN.O.I.'s national center and headquarters are located inChicago,Illinois, which is alsohome to its flagship Mosque No. 2, Mosque Maryam. As of 2005, the N.O.I. has beenincluded in the Southern Poverty Law Center's list of activehate groups in the UnitedStates.[3] It is estimated that the sect has about 20,000 members.[4]

Main article: Beliefs and theology of the Nation of Islam
The main belief of The Nation of Islam and its followers is that there is no other God but
Allah, redefining "Allah" by saying "who came in the person ofW. D. Fard." Fardfounded the Nation of Islam and subsequently installed Elijah Muhammad as theorganization's leader. The official beliefs of the Nation of Islam have been outlined inbooks, documents, and articles published by the organization as well as speeches byElijah Muhammad, Malcolm X, Louis Farrakhan, and other ministers. Many of ElijahMuhammad's teachings may be found in Message to the Blackman in America and TheTrue History of Jesus as Taught by the Honorable Elijah Muhammad[7]. Many ofMalcolm X's teachings of NOI theology are in his The End of White World Supremacy,while a later more critical discussion of those beliefs can be found in The Autobiographyof Malcolm X, co-written with Alex Haley.
Passed down via written lessons from 1930-1934 from W. Fard Muhammad to hisstudent, Elijah Muhammad, referred to and titled, The Supreme Wisdom the Nation ofIslam continues to teach its followers that the present world society is segmented intothree distinct categories. They teach that from a general perspective, 85% of thepopulation are the deaf, dumb and blindmasses of the people who are easily led in thewrong direction and hard to lead in the right direction. These 85% of the masses are saidto be manipulated by 10% of the people who are referred to as the masses of the people.Those 10% richslave-makers are said to manipulate the 85% masses of the peoplethrough ignorance, the skillful use of religious doctrine and the mass media.
The third group referred to as the 5%poor righteous teachers of the people of the world
who know the truth of the manipulation of the 85% masses of the people by the 10% andthat 5% righteous teachers are at constant struggle and war with 10% to reach andfreethe minds of the masses of the people.[8]
[edit] Official platform
An official Nation of Islam platform referred to as "The Muslim Program" was written byElijah Muhammad in his bookMessage to the Blackman in America, published in 1965.

The itemized platform contains two sections; What The Muslims Wantconsisting of 10points and What The Muslims Believe consisting of 12 points.[9]
[edit] Cosmology
The NOI teaches that the Earth and Moon were once the same, and that the Earth is over76 trillion years old.[10] The entire land mass on the Earth was called "Asia". This was,Elijah Muhammad claims, long before Adam.[11]
[edit] Black experience of slavery was Bible prophecy
The NOI teaches that black people constitute a nation and that through the institution ofthe Atlantic slave trade they were systematically denied knowledge of their past history,language, culture, and religion and, in effect, lost control of their lives. Central to thisdoctrine, NOI theology asserts that black peoples experience of slavery was thefulfillment of Bible prophecy and therefore, black people are the seed ofAbraham
referred to in the Bible, in Genesis 15:1314:
And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is nottheirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years; And also that nation,whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great substance.King James Version
[edit] Separatism
In an April 13, 1997 interview onNBC'sMeet the Press, Louis Farrakhan was asked byTim Russert to explain the Nation of Islam's view on separation:
Tim Russert: "Once a week, on the back page [of your newspaper] is The Muslim Program, 'Whatthe Muslims Want' [written in 1965]. The first is in terms of territory, 'Since we cannot get alongwith them in peace and equality, we believe our contributions to this land and the suffering forcedupon us by white America justifies our demand for complete separation in a state or territory ofour own.' Is that your view in 1997, a separate state for Black Americans?"
Minister Louis Farrakhan: "First, the program starts with number one. That is number four. Thefirst part of that program is that we want freedom, a full and complete freedom. The second is, wewant justice. We want equal justice under the law, and we want justice applied equally to all,regardless of race or class or color. And the third is that we want equality. We want equalmembership in society with the best in civilized society. If we can get that within the political,
economic, social system of America, there's no need for point number four. But if we cannot getalong in peace after giving America 400 years of our service and sweat and labor, then, of course,separation would be the solution to our race problem."[12]
[edit] Teachings on race
The Nation of Islam teaches that Black peoplewere the original humans. Louis Farrakhanhas stated that "White people are potential humansthey havent evolved yet." [13]

However, Farrakhan further expounded by saying, "If you look at the human family now, I'm talking about black, brown, red, yellow and white we all seem to be frozenon a subhuman level of existence. In Islam and, I believe, in Christian theology andJewish theology as well, there are three stages of human development. The first stage iscalled the animalistic stage of development. But when we submit to animal passions, then
we can do evil things to one another in that animalistic stage of development. But whenmoral consciousness comes and we have a self-accusing spirit, it is then that we becomehuman beings. Right now, we have the potential for humanity, but we have not reachedthat potential, because we are functioning on the animalistic plane of existence." [14]
"The Blackman is the original man. From him came all brown, yellow, red, and white people. Byusing a special method of birth control law, the Blackman was able to produce the white race.This method of birth control was developed by a Black scientist known asYakub, whoenvisioned making and teaching a nation of people who would be diametrically opposed to theOriginal People. A Race of people who would one day rule the original people and the earth for aperiod of 6,000 years. Yakub promised his followers that he would graft a nation from his ownpeople, and he would teach them how to rule his people, through a system of tricks and lies
whereby they use deceit to divide and conquer, and break the unity of the darker people, put onebrother against another, and then act as mediators and rule both sides." -Elijah Muhammad [15]
In an interview onNBC's Meet the Press, Louis Farrakhan said the following in responseto hostTim Russert's question on the Nation of Islam's teachings on race:
"You know, its not unreal to believe that white people who genetically cannot produceyellow, brown or black had a Black origin. The scholars and scientists of this world agree thatthe origin of man and humankind started in Africa and that the first parent of the world was black.The Qur'an says that God created Adam out of black mud and fashioned him into shape. So ifwhite people came from the original people, the Black people, what is the process by which youcame to life? That is not a silly question. That is a scientific question with a scientific answer. It
doesn't suggest that we are superior or that you are inferior. It suggests, however, that your birthor your origin is from the black people of this earth: superiority and inferiority is determined byour righteousness and not by our color."[12]
Elijah Muhammad addressing followers
Pressed by Russert on whether he agreed with Elijah Muhammad's preaching that whitesare blue-eyed devils, Farrakhan responded:
"Well, you have not been saints in the way you have acted toward the darker peoples of the worldand toward even your own people. But, in truth, Mr. Russert, any human being who givesthemself over to the doing of evil could be considered a devil. In the Bible, in the Book ofRevelation, it talks about the fall of Babylon. It says Babylon is fallen because she has become

the habitation of devils. We believe that that ancient Babylon is a symbol of a modern Babylon,which is America."
While Malcolm Xwas a member of the Nation of Islam, he preached that black peoplewere genetically superior to white people but were dominated by a system of whitesupremacy.
Thoughtful white people know they are inferior to Black people. Even [Senator James]Eastlandknows it. Anyone who has studied the genetic phase of biology knows that white is consideredrecessive and black is considered dominant. ..The entire American economy is based on whitesupremacy. Even the religious philosophies, in essence, white supremacy. A white Jesus. A whiteVirgin. White angels. White everything. But a black Devil, of course. The "Uncle Sam" politicalfoundation is based on white supremacy, relegating nonwhites to secondclass citizenship. Itgoes without saying that the social philosophy is strictly white supremacist. And the educationalsystem perpetuates white supremacy.[16]
The Nation of Islam teaches that intermarriage or race mixing should be prohibited. This
is point 10 of the official platform, "What the Muslims Want" published 1965.
[edit] The Mother Plane and Ezekiel's Wheel
Elijah Muhammad taught his followers about a Mother Plane or Wheel, a UFO that wasseen and described in the visions of the prophet Ezekiel in the Book of Ezekiel, in theHebrew Bible.
Now as I looked at the living creatures, I saw a wheel on the earth beside the living creatures, onefor each of the four of them. As for the appearance of the wheels and their construction: theirappearance was like the gleaming ofberyl. And the four had the same likeness, their appearance
and construction being as it were a wheel within a wheel. When they went, they went in any oftheir four directions without turning as they went. And their rims were tall and awesome, and therims of all four were full of eyes all around.Book of Ezekiel Chapter 1:15-18, Bible, English Standard Version
Louis Farrakhan, commenting on his teacher's description said the following:
The Honorable Elijah Muhammad told us of a giant Mother Plane that is made like the universe,spheres within spheres. White people call them unidentified flying objects (UFOs). Ezekiel, in theOld Testament, saw a wheel that looked like a cloud by day but a pillar of fire by night. TheHonorable Elijah Muhammad said that that wheel was built on the island ofNippon, which isnow called Japan, by some of the Original scientists. It took $15 billion in gold at that time to
build it. It is made of the toughest steel. America does not yet know the composition of the steelused to make an instrument like it. It is a circular plane, and the Bible says that it never makesturns. Because of its circular nature it can stop and travel in all directions at speeds of thousandsof miles per hour. He said there are 1,500 small wheels in this Mother Wheel, which is a half mileby a half mile (800 m by 800 m). This Mother Wheel is like a small human-built planet. Each oneof these small planes carry three bombs.
The Honorable Elijah Muhammad said these planes were used to set up mountains on the earth.The Qur'an says it like this: We have raised mountains on the earth lest it convulse with you. How

do you raise a mountain, and what is the purpose of a mountain? Have you ever tried to balance atire? You use weights to keep the tire balanced. That's how the earth is balanced, with mountainranges. The Honorable Elijah Muhammad said that we have a type of bomb that, when it strikesthe earth a drill on it is timed to go into the earth and explode at the height that you wish themountain to be. If you wish to take the mountain up a mile (1.6 km), you time the drill to go amile (1.6 km) in and then explode. The bombs these planes have are timed to go one mile (1.6
km) down and bring up a mountain one mile (1.6 km) high, but it will destroy everything within a50-square-mile (130 km) radius. The white man writes in his above top secret memos of theUFOs. He sees them around his military installations like they are spying.
That Mother Wheel is a dreadful-looking thing. White folks are making movies now to makethese planes look like fiction, but it is based on something real. The Honorable Elijah Muhammadsaid that Mother Plane is so powerful that with sound reverberating in the atmosphere, just with asound, she can crumble buildings.
Minister Louis Farrakhan, The Divine Destruction of America: Can She Avert It?[17]
[edit] Criticisms
The first book analyzing the Nation of Islam was The Black Muslims in America (1961)by C. Eric Lincoln. Lincoln describes the use of doctrines during religious services.
Often the minister reads passages from well-known historical, sociological, or anthropologicalworks, and finds in them inconspicuous references to the Blackmans true history in the world....Occasionally the minister chides the audience for its skepticism: I know you don't believe mebecause I happen to be a Black man. Well, you can look it up in a book Im going to tell youabout that was written by a white man. He then reads off references that his hearers arechallenged to check.
[edit] Legend of the 1975 death of Elijah Muhammad
Members of The Nation of Islam have long held that Elijah Muhammad did not die, butinstead escaped a death plot, was restored to health, and is aboard that huge wheel-likeplane that is even now flying over our heads. Among Muhammad's passengers on theMother Wheel is the mysterious figure namedW.D. Fard.[18]
[edit] Antisemitism
Main article:Nation of Islam and antisemitism
A number of Jewish organizations, Christian organizations, and academics consider theNation of Islam to be antisemitic. Professor David W. Leinweber, Ph.D. ofEmoryUniversity asserts that the Nation Of Islam has engaged in revisionist and antisemiticinterpretations of the Holocaust and that they exaggerate the role of Jews in the trans-Atlantic slave trade.[19]
The charges are based on statements such as the following by Farrakhan:

German Jews financed Hitlerright here in America...International bankersfinanced Hitler and poor Jews died while big Jews were at the root of what youcall the Holocaust...Little Jews died while big Jews made money. Little Jews[were] being turned into soap while big Jews washed themselves with it. Jews[were] playing violin, Jews [were] playing music, while other Jews [were]
marching into the gas chambers....[20] The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) alleges that NOI Health Minister, Abdul AlimMuhammad, has accused Jewish doctors of injecting Blacks with theAIDS virus,[21]anallegation that Dr. Abdul Alim Muhammad has denied.
The Nation of Islam has repeatedly denied charges of anti-Semitism,[22] and NOI leaderMinister Louis Farrakhan has stated, "The ADL .. uses the term 'anti-Semitism' to stifleall criticism of Zionism and the Zionist policies of the State of Israel and also to stifle alllegitimate criticism of the errant behavior of some Jewish people toward the non-Jewish
population of the earth."
[23]
Responding to the widely reported assertion that he referred to Judaism as a dirty and"gutter religion", Farrakhan wrote a June 18, 1997 letter to a formerWall Street Journalassociate editor, Jude Wanniski, stating in part:
Countless times over the years I have explained that I never referred to Judaism as a dirtyreligion, but, clearly referred to the machinations of those who hide behind the shield of Judaismwhile using unjust political means to achieve their objectives. This was distilled in the New Yorktabloids and other media saying, "Farrakhan calls Judaism a gutter religion." As a Muslim, Irevere Abraham, Moses, and all the Prophets who Allah (God) sent to the children of Israel. Ibelieve in the scriptures brought by these Prophets and the Laws of Allah (God) as expressed in
the Torah. I would never refer to the Revealed Word of Allah (God) -- the basis of Jewish Faith --as "dirty" or "gutter." You know, Jude, as well as I, that the Revealed Word of Allah (God) comesas a Message from Allah (God) to purify us from our evil that has divided us and caused us to fallinto the gutter. Over the centuries, the evils of Christians, Jews and Muslims have dirtied theirrespective religions. True Faith in the laws and Teaching of Abraham, Jesus and Muhammad isnot dirty, but, practices in the name of these religions can be unclean and can cause people to lookupon the misrepresented religion as being unclean.[24]
Jude Wanniski also defended the Nation of Islam against charges of racism and anti-Semitism, writing, "I've met dozens of men and women who belong to the Nation ofIslam, attended many of their conferences, and prayed with them in their Chicagomosque to the God ofAbraham, Moses, Jesus and Mohammed. I've concluded beyondany reasonable doubt that there is not an ounce of anti-Semitism or bigotry inFarrakhan."[25]
The Nation of Islam has had friendly relations with theNeturei Karta, a small,controversial Jewish group that is well-known for its association with and support foranti-Zionists. Neturei Karta stressed that NOI leader, "Minister Louis Farrakhan is an

extraordinary force for good in the Black community. His followers are responsible,industrious, modest and moral. And for this he and they have our respect."[26]
In a letter responding to ADL DirectorAbraham Foxman's insistence that black leadersdistance themselves from the Nation of Islam, hip hopmogul Russell Simmons wrote,
"Simply put, you are misguided, arrogant, and very disrespectful of African Americansand most importantly your statements will unintentionally or intentionally lead to anegative impression of Jews in the minds of millions of African Americans", hecontinued, "For over 50 years, Minister Farrakhan has labored to resurrect thedowntrodden masses of African Americans up out of poverty and self-destruction" andindicated that he had personally witnessed Farrakhan affirm, 'A Muslim can not hate aJew. We are all members of the family of Abraham and all of us should maintaindialogue and mutual respect.'" [27]
[edit] Comparison with traditional Islam
The Nation of Islam preaches adherence to theFive Pillars of the Islamic Faith, howeverthese are sometimes avoided, for example the Friday prayers which are obligatory arerarely practiced, furthermore prayers are conducted in temples on seated chairs in church-fashion, instead of mosques and withoutprostration. The NOI also teaches morality andpersonal decorum, emphasizing modesty, mutual respect, and discipline in dress andcomportment. NOI adherents do not consume pork, frown upon the consumption ofalcohol,drugs, and tobacco, and stress a healthy diet and physical fitness. However, theNation of Islam argues that because of the unique experience of the oppression anddegradation ofslavery, Elijah Muhammad used unique methods for introducing Islam tohis people. Traditional Islamic beliefs however, stand in stark opposition to the entiretheological and creedal foundation of the Nation of Islam.[28]

Other doctrines of the Nation of Islam are disputed, specifically:
God'sincarnationo NOI teaches that "Allah (God) appeared in the Person of Master W. Fard
Muhammad, July 1930; the long-awaitedMessiah of the Christians andthe Mahdi of the Muslims."[29]

o Traditional Sunni and Shi'a Muslim doctrine is that it is heretical and
blasphemous to believe that God would manifest Himself in human form(or any material form). Likening any individual(s) to God is a form ofshirka major sin in Islam.[30]
Relations with whiteso NOI teaches that the Black man is the original man, and from him came
all brown, yellow, and white people. By using a special method of birthcontrol law (the Yakub teaching), the Blackman was able to produce thewhite race.[15]NOI does not believe that whites are worthy to beevangelized, and thus does not accept them into the NOI.[citation needed]
o Traditional Islam teaches that all races are equal, and any person of any
race can convert to Islam. Islam recognizes the Biblical and Quranicfigure, the patriarch Jacob, but this Jacob is viewed by Muslims as aprophet, not the Yakub featured in Nation of Islam theology.
Perspectives on the Quran.o The vast majority of Muslims, worldwide, believe that the Quran is Allah's
final revelation to mankind and that it was given to the Islamic ProphetMuhammad between the years of 610 and 632.
o The NOI states that they believe in the Qur'an and the writings of all the
prophets of God.In addition the NOI believes there are truths in the Biblebut it is tampered material and "must be reinterpreted so that mankind willnot be snared by the falsehoods that have been added to it." [31]
Status of the Islamic prophetMuhammad vs. other prophets.o Islam teaches that Muhammad was the last of the messengers that Allah
has sent to mankind there would be no more and all Muslims are tofollow the teachings of the Quran and accept monotheismo The Nation of Islam believes that Elijah Muhammad was a messenger and
was taught by God Himself, who the NOI claim as "Master" FardMuhammad(W. D. Fard).[32]
Practice of Friday prayers:o Islam dedicates Friday as the congregational prayer (salat) that Muslims
hold every Friday, just after noon in lieu of dhuhr (noon prayer).o The Nation of Islam ignores Jumuah, as a pillar of practice for Muslims.
This was changed briefly in 2002, when W. Deen Mohammed, a Muslim
in opposition of black separatism, delivered the Friday sermon at the LosAngeles Convention Center.[33] The practice of Jumuah prayer for the NOIhas since stopped in place of a traditional "Christian" Sunday service.

The NOI has worked to clean up drug addicts, reform prostitutes, and keep black youthout of gangs. It has helped some newly released ex-convicts make a new start and stay
out of jail.
In The Fire Next Time, James Baldwin wrote:
Elijah Muhammad has been able to do what generations of welfare workers and committees andresolutions and reports and housing projects and playgrounds have failed to do: to heal andredeem drunkards and junkies, to convert people who have come out of prison and to keep themout, to make men chaste and women virtuous, and to invest both the male and the female withpride and a serenity that hang about them like an unfailing light. He has done all these things,which our Christian church has spectacularly failed to do. (James Baldwin, The Fire Next Time,New York: Vintage International/Random House, 1963)
