Malcolm X was a very faithful man.
I am Fulani and I am proud and honored to consider Malcolm as part of the Fulani tribe.
You can’t just claim brotha Malcolm, you must also claim his people. Your brothers and sisters in the inner cities are waiting to accepted by their brothers. It’s such a shame how people are claiming him, but no one is continuing the work he started. His Academy and his Temple are being left to rot by the city of Lansing, His legacy is currently trying to be destroyed. To claim one you must claim all of us. I can’t be the only African descendant trying to persevere his physical legacy, not just his memory. The Walid Mahmoud Islamic center is open to all people who look up to brother Alhajj Malik Al-shabazz. If you’re ever in Lansing, MI come through, everyone is welcomed, Asalaamu alakeum ✊🏿✊🏿
I'm one too
Kairaba Musa Sukai brother I support you but I have to say African-American people MUST wake up to their true heritage and shed the last names of their owners/masters forced upon their ancestors and go back to Islam the religion of their ancestors who were forcefully christianised by their owners. JazakAllah khayren.
Waaooh you are my tribe mate
I'm one too
Salaam Alaykum. I'm still following Malcom's legacy. After watching the news in 1965, about a man who was assassinated, (physically), and had an "X" on the end of his name. I asked my mom, what that meant. She could not tell me. Fortunately, years earlier, my mom encouraged me to read. Allah blessed me with the journey to find out...I'm proud to say, I'm still searching at 67 years young Al Hamdullilah Rabbiyal Aameen.
God bless you brother. May Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala open all doors of light for you.
Alhamdulilah I'm a proud mandinka and proud Gambian 🇬🇲❤❤
Dr Omar Faroq is a wonderful man, the most beautiful of speaker, i love you for the sake of Allah!
The Greatest Man ever born in the Land of the Noble Native Americans
What an incredible man who has struggled through life and made himself an exemplary example. So much respect ❣️ to Hajj Malik Shabbaz . His word still stands true today after all these decades.

As Salaam Alaikum and Ramadan Mubarak!
I thank Allah for this video recording and I pray Allah bless all of those involved in this presentation. May Allah continue to bless Imam Zaid and Dr. Umar in all of their good works and may Allah bless El Hajj Malik Shabazz with firdaus (highness in the paradise). As many of you are, I am also touched very deeply by this presentation on the Life of Malcolm X. Malcolm touched and still touches us very deeply. Hearing and seeing Dr. Umar and Imam Zaid express what Malcolm means to them is priceless. Malcolm belonged to all of us. Through Malcolm countless lives were and are inspired. So many lessons can be learned from Malcolm’s life and so many lessons may be also learned from his death, his assassination. Allah gives life and death, we know that. And we know that none of us know when and where we will die. That knowledge is with Allah only. We accept that, mashallah. Allah knows best and Allah wants the best for us. Allah wants us to read His Book and Allah wants us to read His Creation and the signs in His Creation. To read and come to conclusions. Malcolm's life was a sign and so was his death. I believe the suggestion that Malcolm received from his close friend and associate, Wallace Mohammed (as he was known then) was the best advice that he could have been given. I believe this advice was consistent with the teachings of Al Islam and the Sunnah of Mohammed the Prophet (prayers and peace be on him). In this presentation, Dr. Umar mentioned that towards the end of Malcolm's life, Wallace Mohammed sent Malcolm a message to leave and go away. From what we know Malcolm was under a tremendous amount of duress. Years ago, I read a hadith that says ‘Allah forgives His Servant for what he does under duress’. That means duress is very serious and weighty. We can't imagine the degree of the duress that Malcolm was under at that time. As such, it is very likely that his decision making ability was impaired. Malcolm was a human being like the rest of us. We know what happens when we are under duress. We can’t think straight. We need to go somewhere and think. This happens to us regarding much smaller matters than what Malcolm had on him. His whole world had been turned upside down. And his life was in the crosshairs. In my humble opinion Malcolm needed to leave. Go somewhere for a couple of months or years. Regroup and build there and then come back stronger and more capable and equipped for victory. This idea is very to familiar to muslims. This is the message in the Hijrah. And this is also the literal message given to us by Mohammed the Prophet (PBUH). ‘The ink of the scholar is more precious than the blood of the martyr’. I believe Malcolm’s life did not have to end the way it did. Allah allowed it. Perhaps we are to study and get lessons from his death as we do from his life. Allah knows best. I pray Allah we have a most blessed Ramadan and a most blessed life. Again, I thank Allah for this presentation from Imam Zayd and Dr. Umar. May Allah continue to bless them in all their good works. May Allah bless us with good works and good intentions. Ameen.
Alhamdulillah! Excellent commentary beloved!
When the Nigerian Muslim Student Association gave Malcolm the name "Omowale", he came full circle. Omowale is Yoruba meaning "the son has returned home". He also has to be the most complex historical figure. You cannot draw a circle, put a dot in it and say, "This is Malcolm". There is so much to the man. Even today, I still learn more about the ancestor's life.
Al-Hajj Malik Al-Shabazz my great ancestor. We’re from the same city, same community. I attend prayers at his Mosque Temple 16. As a Proud Fulani, Mandinka, Hausa, Sanhaja descendant I urge my brothers on the continent to reach out to your brothers in American ghettos, we badly need your Baraka, as were still suffering the effects of slavery and Jim Crow. If you’re ever in Lansing, MI my home town, reach out to the Walid Mahmoud Islamic center. Know that your brother is trying his best to get the city to acknowledge and respect Brother Malcolm’s hard work, his school The Academy Of Shabazz is being treated by the white government as just another public school in the hood, the building is literally falling apart, while our supposed Muslim “brothers” avoid the inner city all together, they’d rather build their mosque in the rich white community far away from our people... you can’t claim you love brother Malcolm when you don’t love his people. I.e. black Americans.
Kairaba, we, who love him, must do that. Seriously.
I like that this wasn’t just another repeat of the same lecture we’ve heard a hundred times, and that the speakers actually came with real background knowledge of the subject.
Malcome was a muslim, who loved his people the blacks of America no matter their beliefs. He was highly self educated man who was honest and untill the very end he never gave up his dream to make the world a better place for all. I think as Christians,Muslims,Buddhist, hindus, jews...we all need be first honest about the problems facing the world today then work together to end poverty,ignorance,violence and exploitation.
shut uppoease
As a Fulani I am very grateful that the Wali of Allah Malcom X was from our lineage. I am humbled and indebted to his legacy.
Same here pulloh
Malcolm X was true Muslim in heart and I read his biography
Very informative and truly inspiring. Enjoy watching just over 1 hour. Thanks!
I must be from the same tribe because I love him so.
Lisa Combs yes you are:)
Am mandinko from Gambia,but am presently living in Belgium.
so much Noor in these brothers
May Allah/ God give these two teachers of Islam long live ,healthy and happy life of achievement and fulfillment.
I hope they remove the darkness of this country to light of Islam, light of truth,light of justice, light of co.passion and lastly and not the least, they show the light of courage .
He was the man of truth Abusulitly!!!!
Alhamdulilah!
May God forgive him and have mercy on his soul.
Wow so this is the "white Muslim" that malcolm was describing in 1964. First time seeing one.
Ma Sha Allah
There's plenty more like him brother.
Many many white Muslims. Most of whom have been for generations upon generations. From Bosnia to Chechnya and many other places. Alhamdulillah.
Al Islam is knowledge
I hope you don't mind us re-uploading this video
Malcolm X r u still alive
@@sainulabiddeen5731 no
Man, the scholars are aging and dying left and right. There needs to be more scholars and the knowledge need to be preserved in digital format.
Brought tears to my eyes!
There is something SubhaanAllah beautiful about the people in the crowd. Alhamdulillah, this is a model and I hope to carry it forward, insha’Allah
ASA from Charles Shabazz. Correction Brother Imam Zaid (35:00), the vanguard as you call it, better known as the FOI (Fruit Of Islam), was formed during the beginning of its foundation in 1930. What he did do was he innovated certain tactics.
Allah hamdulillahi!
There are so many Muslims sheik's I have seen that feeds the west wat they want to hear. May Allah guide all the Muslims and make us strong in our faith.
mashaalah this is amazing may Allah have mercy on malcom x
masha allah
Allahumma Ameen
رحم اللٌه Malcom x و بارك في الدٌعاة المثقٌفين في ديار الغرب...آمين.. May, 2020
May Allah grant him Jannat-ul-firdaus
Maybe there is something that who ever assassinated him knew that we didn't know is that he was from a noble family and that is why they killed his grandson as well. If you notice, his daughters didn't have many heirs especially male heirs.
What does heirs mean
Very sensitive to remember Soldier Mujahid Malcolm.
رحم الله الحج مالك شباز مالكوم اكس🇰🇼
Malcolm once said if he was not in accordance with the Book (Quran), pull his coat tail.
Fulani are lost tribe or close relative from Somalia. But I feel really sorry for Fulani seens they converted to Christianity. Subxnlah. I'm crying listening to this. I love you malcom x
99% of them in Nigeria are Muslim and they're more high there in population, also remember alot of Arabs are also Christians
One of the great travesties of history in America is that the majority of Black Americans follow Christianity, a religion imposed on black slaves by their white masters. Still Black Americans would use that religion to educate themselves finding an interpretation of the Bible that encouraged them to fight against slavery and racism this even though the Hebrew god authorized slavery.
The Islamic religion also did not consider slavery an injustice although slavery in Islam was not limited to race and skin color. Islam made freeing individual slaves as a way to get forgiveness for sins but Muhammad never preached that slavery was an injustice or crime against humanity. The Arab slave trade enslaved between 12 and 15 million people most from Asia, Western and Southeast Africa. It was the colonial powers of the West that forced Muslim countries to suppress slavery. The Ottoman empire abolished slavery in 1924. In 1990 the Cairo Declaration on Human Rights in Islam declared that "no one has the right to enslave" another human being. Interestingly. Malcolm X made his pilgrimage to Mecca, Saudi Arabia in 1964 and Saudi Arabia didn't abolish slavery until 1962, just 2 years earlier.
Malcolm X before his assassination was truly an inspiration as a fearless advocate for universal human rights and freedom for all people regardless of race, religion, or gender. His personal religion may have been Muhammad's religion but his drive in life was universal human rights. I hope that more African Americans will free themselves from their Christian indoctrination while not becoming indoctrinated by another religious dogma, Islam.
Had Malcolm X lived long enough, knowing how uncompromising he was about truth, I think he would have reached the same conclusion about Sunni Islam, as he did about Christianity and the Nation of Islam. Malcolm X was a human being in evolution.
Malcolm X (El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz) was assassinated in February 21, 1965. Almost one year before on April 12, 1964 in a speech titled "Th Ballot or the Bullet" delivered at the King Solomon Baptist Church in Detroit, Michigan, Malcolm said the following.....
"I'm still a Muslim. That is, my religion is still Islam. My religion is still Islam. I still credit Mr. Muhammad for what I know and what I am. He's the one who opened my eyes. At present I am the minister of the newly founded Muslim Mosque Incorporated, which has its offices in the Theresa Hotel right in the heart of Harlem, that's the black belt in New York City. And when we realize that Adam Clayton Powell, is a Christian minister, he has Abyssinian Baptist Church, but at the same time he's more famous for his political struggling. And Dr. King is a Christian minister from Atlanta Georgia, or in Atlanta Georgia, but he's become more famous for being involved in the civil rights struggle. There's another in New York, Rev. Galamison, I don't know if you've heard of him out here, he's a Christian minister from Brooklyn, but has become famous for his fight against the segregated school system in Brooklyn. Rev. Cleage, right here, is a Christian minister, here in Detroit, he's head of the Freedom Now Party. All of these are Christian ministers…all of these are Christian ministers but they don't come to us as Christian ministers, they come to us as fighters in some other category."
"I am a Muslim minister. The same as they are Christian ministers, I'm a Muslim minister. And I don't believe in fighting today on any one front, but on all fronts. In fact, I'm a Black Nationalist freedom fighter. Islam is my religion but I believe my religion is my personal business. It governs my personal life, my personal morals. And my religious philosophy is personal between me and the God in whom I believe, just as the religious philosophy of these others is between them and the God in whom they believe. And this is best this way. Were we to come out here discussing religion, we'd have too many differences from the out start and we could never get together."
"So today, though Islam is my religious philosophy, my political, economic and social philosophy is black nationalism. You and I as I say, if we bring up religion, we'll have differences, we'll have arguments, and we'll never be able to get together. But if we keep our religion at home, keep our religion in the closet, keep our religion between ourselves and our God, but when we come out here we have a fight that's common to all of us against a enemy who is common to all of us."
25:00 Ummah support
The FOI or fruit of Islam was not started by Malcolm X. It was started by its founder, Fard Muhammad. Secondly, Malcolm x loved the Nation of Islam and Elijah Muhammad. He did not want to leave. He tried several times to return to NOI after he was silenced by Elijah Muhammad. I think we missed a big part of the story when dont talk about Malcolm x love relationships he had for Elijah Muhammad and the NOI. He was in love with both of them. Imagine trying to tell my life story Musa without his brother. I think these two scholars gave excellent presentations, but why not invite members from the NOI of those days who were actually there. They are dying quickly. But there are a few of them still around. I find they arent often sought after.

Nice one we are all conet
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
How long shall they kill our prophets as we stand aside and look 👀 (bob Marley)
I WAS ALL EXCITED TO WATCH THIS, BUT AS SOON AS I HEARD DR. KING MENTIONED I JUST STOPPED DISGUSTED! SO, I RATHER GET UP AND DO SOMETHING ELSE! BYE!
R.I.P
All praise is due to Allah for the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad who taught and trained Brother Malcolm X. It was due to the efforts and guidance of Allah, via the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, not Malcolm that the nation progressed. There were several students who helped to build the Nation of Islam, notabaly Minister Louis Farrakhan. Credit goes to Allah.
Malcolm did not right the autobiography
Rabi'a Keeble Write*
Rabi'a Keeble And no he didn't write it,but a man call Alex Harvey did;its a brilliant book I highly recommend it.
He narrated the book to Alex Harvey, Alex Harvey is the Author, all the words actually came from brother Malcolm with the exception of the assassination event and the others after his death. Because brother Malcolm X always knew at the back of his mind something is going to happen to him, he asked Alex Harvey to do his autobiography and the 2 of them would seat together and brother Malcolm narrate and Alex Harvey would write what ever he says.

He oversaw the writing of it. Did u listen to his autobiography. It’s online on UA-cam.

Iran Whitaker dr Umar faruq abdallah. Check his work on oasisinitiative . .Org
ASA Where did this guy come from? Did he know Malcolm? Did he see Malcolm ? Where did he get his so-called info from?
It' s easy to see Malcolm. Read his autobiography, listen to his lectures which you can easily find in this very youtube. Malcolm lives in our times, his voice, his face, his smile is available as if he never dies. Go dig!
I cannot follow a religion.
I will not follow a religion.
I believe living on moral principals and treating people how I would like to be treated. When someone wears this garb and says someone is the best I automatically believe he is rehashing someones elses beliefs. Figure it out for yourself. Stop religion. I would like to think religion doesn't succeed over common sense.
No, rather religion is what guides common sense, and demands its use. The Quran is something that doesnt chastise people for not "knowing" but rather for not "thinking" "perceiving" "using the intellect"... yet many think that religion is irrational. Rather it recognises and emphasises the use of intellect as a prerequisite condition for gaining knowledge, and also teaches truths that transcends the intellect itself; i.e. it recognises the existence of concepts and phenomena that the human mind could never perceive the reality of. Like everything in nature, even the human mind has its limits (in terms of experience and intellectual export).
keep your shallow minded dirty impetuous thoughts to your self
Religion is a misnomer for Islam, it is rather a way for peace in life, a system of living in peace for society.
