over finding us who have been lost from (Allah and the Nation of Islam) for 400 years following others than our own kind?"

CHRISTIANITY 

"Christianity is a religion organized and backed by the devils for the purpose of making slaves of black mankind."

"Freedom, Justice, Equality; money, good homes, etc.-these Christianity cannot give us (not the Christianity that has been taught us).

"He (Allah) said that Christianity was organized by the white race and they placed the name of Jesus on it being the founder and author to deceive black people into accepting it.

"Our first step is to give back to the white man his religion, Christianity, church and his names. These three are chains of slavery that hold us in bondage to them. We are free only when we give up the above three.

"The Bible, church and Christianity have deceived the so-called Negroes. I pray (to) Allah to giv them life, and light of understanding."

PREACHER OF CHRISTIANITY

"The greatest hindrance to the truth of out people is the preacher of Christianity. He won't accept it, nor is he content to let others alone who are trying to accept it. He is the man who stands in the way of the salvation of his people and as soon as people awaken to the knowledge of this man in their way to God, freedom, justice and equality and stop following him, the sooner they will be in heaven while they live. The preachers are afraid of the truth."

CHRISTIANS

"The followers of Isa (Jesus) and the Injeel (Bible) or gospel revealed to him are referred to as Christians.

"They believe that both Musa and Isa were Jews."

DESTRUCTION OF THE WORLD

"Allah has warned us of how He would (one day) destroy the world with bombs, poison gas, and finally fire that would consume and destroy everything of the present world. Not anything of it )the present world of white mankind) would be left. Those escaping the destruction would not be allowed to take anything of it out with them.

"Allah (has) pointed out to us a dreadful looking plane that is made like a wheel in the sky today. It is a half-mile by a half-mile square; it is a human-built planet. (I won't go into all of the details here, but it is up there and can be seen twice a week; it is no secret.) Ezekiel saw it a long time ago. It was built for the purpose of destroying the present world. Allah has also hinted at plaguing the world with rain, snow, hail, and earthquakes."

THERE CAN BE NO LOVE FOR AN ENEMY

"It is against the very nature of God, and man, and all life, to love their enemies. Would God ask us to do that which He Himself cannot do? He hates His enemies so much that He tells us that He is going to detroy them in hellfire, along with those of us who follow His enemies."

WHAT OUR ENEMY IS DOING

"The enemy is alert, wide-awake and ever on the job to prevent the so-called Negroes from believing in Allah and the True Religion of Allah and His Prophets-the Religion of Islam. The enemy is well-aware that Allah is the Rock of our Defense and Islam is the House of our Salvation.

MR. FARD MUHAMMAD

"Mr. Far Muhammad (God in Person) chose to suffer three and one-half years to show his love for his people who have suffered over 300 years at the hands of a people who by nature are evil, wicked, and have no good in them.

"He was persecuted, sent to jail in 1932, and ordered out of Detroit, Michigan, May 26, 1933. He came to Chicago in the same year, arrested almost immediately on his arrival and placed behind prison bars.
"He submitted himself with all humbleness to his persecutors. Each time he was arrested, he sent for me that I may
