I originally wrote this on my personal Facebook page as a note but it's very much applicable to this site so I thought I'd share it here as well.  There is another article on here that talks about this subject and has a 400 year old book that talks about how America is the original Egypt. This was written in the 1600s by European explorers mind you.  Here is the link to that article.


You know one of the biggest lies perpetrated is that we were all brought over here on slave ships from Africa.  Seriously, it is a huge deal.  Everything is hidden in plain sight too.  They always act like the Native Americans are almost extinct, like they are less than 1% of the population.

When Christopher Columbus landed in the West Indies, he described the people on the islands as dark skin people like the Ethiopians.  California was populated by black people as well.  Europeans who sailed to America described and drew pictures of the people of America as a dark skin and copper colored with Afros, long hair, or wavy hair.

Black Californians

Black people lived in North, Central, South America, and the Caribbean, before any slave ships ever arrived here which is why Columbus described the dark skin natives as looking like Ethiopians.  Don't fall for the fake outrage at people like Pharell Williams for embracing his Native American roots.

It's ridiculous that white people masquerading as the true natives are able to do this.  The last thing they need are so-called African Americans realizing who we are and getting some of the billions of dollars generated by the casino gaming industry.

There already are some black people that claim their roots and have been able to get into this lucrative industry and it pisses the fake Indians off.  I'll speak more on that in a different article but this runs deep.  Trust me this is possibly the biggest lie perpetrated by this government and the lie is  beginning to crumble down.

The Numbers Simply Don't Add Up!!!

According to "Slave Statistics" by Hugh Thomas published in 1997 by Simon and Schuster somewhere around 500,000 Africans were transported to North America between 1619-1865. But because of the horrible conditions the Africans were packed in on the slave ships half of them died during the journey.

This means that the actual amount of Africans that made it to North America alive was between 250,000-300,000 over a period of 240 years.  If so few Africans were brought over to North America why are there so many African Americans living here today?  In 2013 US Census Bureau estimated 45 million African Americans in the United States.  No other group in the US had a growth rate this high!

 I just want to preface this by saying this speaks on the proper flag protocol for Moorish American Moslems that follow their Prophet Noble Drew Ali to a destiny that is neither uncertain nor unknown.

Our Prophet said, "Don't mix our teachings with the eastern teachings because you may have to take our teachings and straighten out our brothers in the east."

On that note I would like to share my response to a comment on our Instagram account (@MoorsinAmerica) that asserted we had the flags positioned incorrectly. 

Why Moorish Americans Fly the Moorish Flag on the Left and USA Flag on the Right

It is improper protocol, and would be seen as an act of treason to fly the flags with the Moorish flag on the right. The Prophet set us up to succeed and build our nation unimpeded upon. He made it clear that we are NOT striking out against the US government, nor are we saying that we are not citizens of the USA, as he said over and over again on the record that we are citizens of the USA.

I know these are just words from me, so I will share the Prophet's works below to show and prove. Act 4 of our Additional Laws show that we are not to make any assertion against the American flag.

assertion

   * the action of stating something or exercising authority confidently and forcefully.

ACT 4. – All members while making a public speech must not use any assertion against the American Flag or speak radical against the church or any member of any organized group, because we are to teach Love, Truth, Peace, Freedom, and Justice. 1
THE ADDITIONAL LAWS

Historical Examples of the Prophet With the Flags

Many Moors will point to this image of the Prophet holding the flags while ignoring the fact that he took this image while in Mexico.

The image of the Prophet wearing the sombrero and holding the flags with (possibly) the Moorish flag in the dominant position is because he was overseas in Mexico. He was following proper protocol in displaying the flag on his right as he was representing his people (Moorish Americans) in a foreign land.  We cannot see the flag clearly, so he could have been holding one of the state flags for Mexico. That article below states that the Prophet was given the Governor's flag in Mexico. Its possible that he was holding a Mexican Governor's flag next to the American flag.



This image shows the Prophet in his office with the flags behind him in proper position. It looks like the Moorish flag is on his right, however Moors that assume this ignore the fact that the flags are positioned in front of a window and are backwards. They are backwards so that people on the outside of the office see the flags in proper position and facing the correct way. It let people outside the building know they were at the Moorish Science Temple of America, and the flags from the outside would have the American flag on the right.



If you look at the clip from Taharka Bey, he demonstrates this in his own house.

Historical Examples from the 1928 and 1929 Annual Conventions of the Moorish Science Temple of America Displaying Proper Flag Protocol

After reading this you should have a thorough understanding of why so many African-Americans are starting to call themselves Moorish Americans.

I did not write most of the material in this article, but I wanted to share it because the site that it was on originally, which I will share below did not have a lot of traffic, so most have not been exposed to this information.

It contains a lot of credible information about the history of Moorish Americans and makes a valiant effort to explain why the so-called African American, and most "black" people of the Caribbean, North, Central, and South America are actually Moorish Americans.

I also shared information in this article from the great author and teacher CM Bey's Clock of Destiny site and Dr. Alim El Bey, which speaks on this topic as well.

Enjoy!

How Are We Moorish Americans | What Makes Us Moors

Before we further discuss the history of the Moors worldwide we will talk about the more recent history of Moorish Americans.  Around the early 1900's a man by the name of Timothy Drew, later to be known as Noble Drew Ali, established a an Islamic organization in the US attempting to reach and empower black Americans.

By 1928 Noble Drew Ali set up the first of many Moorish Science Temples in Chicago.  He taught that black Americans were not negro, black, or colored.  He said that these were labels placed upon black Americans that kept them in an inferior legal status.  His followers believed he was a prophet and the membership for the Moorish Science Temple grew exponentially, even developing and offshoot, Moorish Orthodox Church for European believers.

Prophet Noble Drew Ali taught, amongst other things, that black Americans were for the most part indigenous to the United States.  He believed that most black Americans and Latinos were actually Moors.

so the Wisdom, Science, teachings of the Moors (the Moslems) in Spain brought a New Light to them, and the rest of Europe, as they saw what we were doing, and copied it to the fullest. this ended their own "Jahaliyyah" (darkness/ignorance) all over the continent of Europe. it is literally the Science of the Moors (who were all Moslems) that began to raise them up, and this is a historical fact.

now, the whole time the Moors (Moslems) were in Spain, the Spanish, French, Italians, and English were trying to bring Spain back under the rule of the Spaniards. and finally in the lte 1400s the Spaniards, with help from their European brothers, finally defeated the Moors in the beginning of 1492.

upon defeating the Moors (Moslems from West Africa), the Spaniards gave them Moors two options, return to West Africa, or stay in Spain under the rule of the Royal Family of Spain as "Spaniards" (subjects of the king and queen), but they forsake their allegiance to their own Moorish Empire, and they must become "Catholics" (the first "Christians") at that time. most of the Moors went home to West Africa, but some betrayed their people and stayed in Spain under those conditions, they became known as "Mosricos", and the people in Spain that were related to the "Moriscos" (the spanish word for Moorish) were called "Morenos".

For those still wondering whether or not North America is Northwest Amexem, check out this dialogue from our Moorish American Facebook group.


Since truth cannot change - Key 33 and Key 86 must be understood in terms of Amexem being (Africa and America connected) "before the earthquake" as mentioned in Chapt 47:6:

Key 33. What is the modem name for Amexem? Africa.

Key 49. Can TRUTH change? TRUTH cannot change, or pass away.

Key 86. Negro, a name given to a river in West Africa by the Moors, because it contains black water. (<-- the only key in the questionnaire which is not a question)

"6. Their [Moabite] dominion and inhabitation extended from North-East and South-West Africa, across great Atlantis even unto the present North, South, and Central America and also Mexico and the Atlantis Islands; BEFORE THE GREAT EARTHQUAKE, which caused the great Atlantic Ocean."

Moorish Guide Vol. 88, 2016

More on Amexem also including the Americas

Prophet Noble Drew Ali is giving an encoded geography lesson that should not be forgotten, and must be strictly preserved as law. The lessons of the questionnaire are absolute truth. The questionnaire elaborates on the Koran with coded substitution. This coding (on one level) is simple algebraic substitution...

If A = Z, then A + B = Z + B

Keys 32 & 85, and 33 & 86 are specifically linked to one another.

Key 32. Where is the Moroccan Empire? NORTHWEST Amexem.

Key 85. Name some of the marks that were put upon the MOORS of NORTHWEST by the European nations in I 774. Negro, Black, Colored and Ethiopian.

(Northwest what? Northwest Amexem. How do we know? We were given those names, not our brothers in Africa. See Chapt 47:17 states: "That is why the nationality of the Moors was taken away from them in ((1774)) and the word NEGRO, BLACK and COLORED, was given to the Asiatics OF AMERICA who were of Moorish descent"... )

Key 33. What is the modem name for Amexem? Africa.
 
Key 86. Negro, a name given to a river in WEST Africa by the Moors, because it contains black water.

(Amexem is the true and divine name of Africa (Chapt 47:2). However, Amexem was its name before the earthquake that caused the Atlantic ocean (when Africa and America were one). That is why Key 86 points out the Negro River is in West Africa, but we know it is in South America. So the Keys are telling you that South America is ancient West Africa, before the earthquake, and the Moors of Northwest Amexem gave the river that name)

This is a true geography lesson to decolonize our minds. That is why verse 13 of chapter 47 states:

"47:13. These laws are to be strictly preserved by the members of all the Temples, of the Moorish Science Temple of America."

Article by Bro. and Sis. Douglas El

Who is Prophet Noble Drew Ali | Biography on Prophet Noble Drew Ali

Excerpt from The Muqarrabeen Files
By: Bro. R. Edwards-El, A.S.D.M., Author and Bro. J. Barnes-Bey, Co-Author

Noble Drew All, a man who made his entrance into the world on the 8th day of January 1886, was an extraordinary individual, endowed with vision, purpose and love for humanity. At the age of 27 in 1913, he founded the Moorish Movement in America, later to be named: Moorish Science Temple of America, Inc., in Newark, New Jersey to uplift fallen humanity by returning the nationality, divine creed and culture to persons of Moorish descent in the Western Hemisphere.

In succeeding years, Noble Drew Ali moved to Chicago, Illinois, organizing in 1925 as the Moorish Temple of Science. He later established a national headquarters and in November 1926, incorporated as a civic organization in the State of Illinois. This was later changed, on July 20, 1928, at a special meeting, to a religious corporation, known as the Moorish Science Temple of America, and registered in the Cook County Office of Records and Deeds, August 1, 1928.

The purpose and goal of the Moorish movement were articulated by Noble Drew Ali in the September 14, 1928 edition of his national weekly publication "The Moorish Guide", when he indicated that it was " Building on human needs " to:

Dispense charity and provide for the mutual assistance of its members in times of distress; Aid in the improvement of health and encourage the ownership of better homes; Find employment for members; and, Teach those fundamental principals which are desired for our civilization, such as obedience to law, loyalty to government, tolerance and unity.

He further stated: " We are friends and servants of humanity. We are dedicated to the purpose of elevating the moral, social and economic status of our people. We have set about to do this through a wide and comprehensive program embodying the principles of LOVE, TRUTH, PEACE, FREEDOM, and JUSTICE "

To that end, in the pre-Depression years of the 1920's, Noble Drew Ali worked with the Moorish-Americans to purchase the first Temple grounds in Chicago, Illinois during May 1926. At the Moorish-owned Unity Temple Hall, located in that city at 3140 Indiana Ave, site of the first Moorish National Convention from October 15-20, 1928, the Moorish and American flags were proud reminders of the dual heritage of our people.


The restoration of the Moorish flag to the descendents of Africa in America by Noble Drew Ali was of special historic significance to the Moorish community and the world, for it took place in the United States during a time when the government of Morocco was in a state of subjugation to the French rule (1912-1955), and could not raise the red flag with the five pointed- green star in the center, on African soil. Additionally, this action evoked memories of the unique role and contributions of Moorish-Moroccan civilization to development of the American system.

The first nation in the world to recognize the continental government of the United States, Morocco signed the first international treaty with this country in 1787, at a time when Moorish descendents of Moroccans labored to help build the evolving American society.   Inspired by the example of Noble Drew Ali, who founded the Moorish Manufacturing Corporation (which continues to produce remedies such as Moorish mineral and healing oil, antiseptic bath compound, and Moorish tea), his followers began to establish a variety of business enterprises, including restaurants, grocery and furniture stores, real estate firms, etc.

When the Elks held their 29th Convention at Unity Hall in 1928, the Moorish Cafeteria Service was commended for being "... one of the most beautiful examples of unity and service ever witnessed..." Reporting on the Moorish Manufacturing Corporation in the September 14, 1928 edition of the MOORISH GUIDE, Noble Drew Ali commented," In all of the various divisions of the factory, we have put on about 20 additional workers. This factory serves one of our main purposes because it gives employment to the members."

Noble Drew Ali was firm in stating," We shall be secure in nothing until we have economic power. A beggar people cannot develop the highest in them, nor can they attain to a genuine enjoyment of the spirituality's of life."  He successfully endorsed and supported the candidacy of then Chicago Conmittee man Oscar DePriest for the United States Congress in 1928.

This endorsement came at the opening meeting of the Moorish Science Temple of America's first annual National Convention, held in Chicago on October 16,1928. Despite the fact that many others were afraid to express their support openly for Mr. DePriest out of fear that his campaign would not be successful.  Moorish residents of the first Congressional District of Illinois, members of the Chicago Temple, numbering 5000, were among his staunchest supporters.

Long before the now-famous Civil Rights era, members of the Moorish Science Temple of America, under the leadership of Noble Drew Ali proudly cast their votes for Oscar Depriest, helping him to become the first person of African descent to serve in the U.S House of Representatives following the completion of the Honorable George White, Representative of North Carolina, term in 1901.





Noble Drew Ali took part in a great parade celebrating the DePriest victory on Saturday, November 3, 1928. In one of the most spectacular occasions ever witnessed on the Southside of Chicago, thousands of automobiles formed an impressive caravan of citizens joining the forces in unity and love. The immense respect and admiration for Noble Drew Ali's work was noted at the opening session of the Moorish Convention, when the dais of speakers included such distinguished city, state and national leaders as the Honorable Louis B. Anderson, Alderman, 2nd Ward (Chicago); Honorable Daniel M. Jackson, 2nd Ward Committeeman and Illinois Commerce Commissioner; Honorable Oscar  DePriest (then a Republican Committeeman and Congressional candidate), Honorable Robert R. Jackson, Alderman, 3rd Ward; and Honorable George Blackwell, State Representative, Illinois Legislature. Additionally, representing the private sector, Mr. Jesse Bingo, President of the Binga Binga State Bank, also spoke in honor of the industrious acts of Noble Drew Ali.

Moorish members from various states including New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, Michigan, Arkansas, Ohio, Wisconsin, West Virginia, and Illinois were on hand to witness and participate in an event unlike any to which they had been exposed. Convention activities included an outstanding parade through Chicago's residential district with Temple officials dressed in full  Moorish regalia, a musical concert featuring the Moorish chorus, a grand celebration with entertainment for delegates and guess; along with discussions, reporting and the conducting of business among the membership.

Prophet Noble Drew Ali, artist unknown

Noble Drew Ali urged Moorish-Americans to "brighten the hopes of our youth" and encouraged the development of the Young Peoples Moorish League, as well as athletic clubs for children. Speaking about the Southside Boys Club Foundation in Chicago, Noble Drew Ali conveyed his fondness for youth and concern for the development of human potential when he  stated "It takes sympathy, patience, interest and the trained eyes of men, well versed in the training and handling of young men to see the hidden beauty beneath the rough exterior.

"Remember, "Better boys make better men, and better men make better husbands for our daughters,"    In addition to his many positive works, Noble Drew Ali will be remembered by the world for being the first divinely-Inspired leader to return the Islamic Creed to these Western shores within the government of the United States. In the corporate information contained in the July 20,1928 Affidavit of Organization filed in Cook County, Illinois, Noble Drew Ali stated "The Moorish Science Temple of America... derives its power and authority, from the Great Koran of Mohammed* to propagate the faith and extend the learning and truth of the Great Prophet Ali in America. To appoint, and consecrate missionaries of the Prophet; and, to establish the faith of Mohammed in America.

"The words of Noble Drew Ali, recorded in his "Moorish Leader's Historical Message to America " appropriately summarize his mission* philosophy and dedication:

"... I urge you to remember there is work enough for all to do in helping to build a better world. The problems of life are largely social and economic. In a profound sense, they are moral and spiritual. Have lofty conceptions of your duties to your country and fellowman in general and especially those with whom you deal. This includes such honesty and righteousness as will cause you to put yourself in the other fellow's place. Look for the best in the others and give them the best that is in  you. Have a deeper appreciation for womanhood.

Brighten the hopes of our youth in order that their courage be increased to dare and do wondrous things. Adhere at all times to the principles of LOVE, TRUTH, PEACE, FREEDOM, and JUSTICE. I am your affectionate leader. I shall continue to labor day and night, both in public and private, for your good, thereby contributing to the welfare of our country and its people as a whole." 

In fitting tribute to his eminence as a world leader, Noble Drew Ali has been honored by the cities of: St. Louis, Missouri; Newark, New Jersey; Chicago, Illinois; Hartford, Connecticut, Washington, D.C., Detroit, Michigan, Los Angeles, California and Baltimore, Maryland; as well as, by national and international organizations such as the National Conference of Black Mayors and the World Conference of Mayors for his work.

 

1886 The Year Prophet Noble Drew Ali Was Born

On January 8th in the year 1886 (23, which also equals 5 in numerology, more on that later) a Prophet was born in the state of North Carolina by the name of Timothy Drew.

Drew was very special and would become the creator of a new world for all that would be willing to accept the light that he brought forth.  Timothy Drew was lead by the spirit of Allah to leave his fingerprint in this world forever.  For all of his marvelous works we give high honors and praise.  In this year 2019 CE we wish a happy 133 Birthday to our Prophet.


Here are a few interesting things that happened in the year 1886:

• May 17 – Santa Clara County v. Southern Pacific Railroad: The U.S. Supreme Court rules that corporations have the same rights as living persons.
   
• October 28 - Statue of Liberty officially celebrated her 100th birthday.  Liberty enlightening the world.  It was dedicated on October 28, 1886.  Monument commemorating the centennial of the signing of the United States Declaration of Independence.  Lady Liberty represents freedom, democracy, as well as international friendship.

• August 20 – A massive hurricane demolishes the town of Indianola, Texas.
   

• August 31, 1886 - Charleston, SC earthquake.  This was one of the most damaging earthquakes in the Southeastern United States ever.  Hardly a structure in Charleston was left undamaged.

• September 4 – Indian Wars: After almost 30 years of fighting, Apache leader Geronimo surrenders with his last band of warriors to General Nelson Miles at Skeleton Canyon in Arizona.

Still relevant today:

• January 29, 1886 - Benz applies for a patent for the first automobile.
• May 1, 1886 - Chicago Unionist, Reformers, Socialist, Anarchist, and regular workers together created the city center of the national movement for 8 hour work days.
• May 8, 1886 - The first Coca-Cola is sold.
• Nikola Tesla forms Tesla Electric Light and Manufacturing Company in Rahway, New Jersey.

 

 Numerology of Prophet Noble Drew Ali | The Digital Code

If you remember from the passage above, we mentioned that Noble Drew Ali's birth year, 1886, adds up to the number five.  Here is some information about five in numerology.  Five is the most vibrant, freedom-loving of all numbers in numerology.  It is unpredictable, always in motion, and constantly in need of change, although it is molded from an almost equal mix of masculine and feminine qualities.

With Noble Drew Ali, we are also dealing with the 7, as in the Circle 7 Koran which he divinely prepared.   This year, 2019 is the Prophet's 133 birthday. 1 + 3 + 3 = 7
The number 7 is the seeker, the thinker, the searcher of Truth (notice the capital "T").  The 7 doesn't take anything at face value -- it is always trying to understand the underlying, hidden truths.


The following passage comes from a document written by W. Williams Bey.  These are his words, not mine.

Montauk Tribe Royal family reclassified to negro and Montauk tribe declared extinct in Supreme Court 🤦🏽

Paper Genocide

(Make Sure You Watch & Share the Video on this below!)

Want to find out how the TRUE Native Americans really were wiped out by the European colonists?  Read and share this post.  For the most part the genocide of the autochthonous Americans was done with semantics, or in other words, paper genocide.


Is all this talk of African Americans ("blacks" in North, South, and Central America) actually being the true indigenous Americans new to you?  If you think this is some new phenomenon or simply a case of "black" people being ashamed of their African heritage, then you, my friend, have bought the lies hook, line, and sinker.

There is a paper trail showing how the courts were used to strip the Algonquians of their land by re-designating the living tribal members as negroes and mulattoes and then officially declaring the tribes extinct, which relinquished the Europeans of honoring the land agreements in place with the tribes.



You have to ignore the millions of people erroneously referred to as African Americans (such as myself) that have oral family history and traditions of Indian heritage and tribal descent.  You also have to ignore the so-called African Americans such as the various Mardi Gras Indian tribes that have been carrying on their tribal traditions for thousands of years.  Finally, you also have to ignore the paper trail left by court documents and laws that legally declared full-blooded tribes as negroes.  The situation was so hostile for copper-colored people that basically anyone that wanted to steal their land, or even enslave them, in the case of slave catchers that enslaved free people of color, all they had to do was accuse the Indian they wanted to get over on of being a negro.




An example of this occurred in modern-day Long Island, New York, where the Montauk Indians had a land dispute between settlers that wanted to infringe on the land agreement they had which gave them perpetual rights to their ancestral land in Montauk Peninsula.  In a courtroom, the Supreme Court Judge Abel Blackmar questioned whether the remaining Montauketts in the area had any right to be called Indians at all.  With nearly 80 tribe members standing in the courtroom, including the Montauk Indian Chief, Wyandank Pharaoh, Judge Blackmar had the nerve to declare the Montauk Indians extinct.



State Supreme Court Justice Abel Blackmar (YES, his name was really Blackmar, as in blackmoor/blackamore. I'm not making this up!)  There is a paper trail, court cases and records of real live indigenous people being declared too "black" to be Indians and their tribes being declared extinct.

In this article (and video at bottom of this article) we will explain using various sources the meaning of the fez and turban, which are the national headdresses of Moorish Americans.  They have practical and mystical meanings as well as historical significance.  There are ancient carvings and hieroglyphics made out of solid stone showing the ancient people wearing both the fez and turban on their head.  These carvings and statues are found all over the Americas, Africa, and various other places in the world.

What do the Fez and Turban Mean?

First we will discuss the turban and then break down the fez.  Both the turban and fez relate to male and female aspects of Moorish Americans alike, even though Moorish American women typically do not wear fezzes.  The wearing of the ancient headdresses of our ancestors, combined with proclaiming your nationality, and honoring our forefathers ties modern Moorish Americans back into the lineage of the creators of civilization.  The people erroneously labeled as black, African American, and, in many cases Latino, has been stripped of their nationality, lineage and place in the family tree of humanity.  It is time to return back to who we truly are.  Now we will discuss the meanings behind the headdress.

What Does the Turban Mean

In the Moorish Science Temple of America the Turban is predominantly worn by Women, but men are permitted to wear them as well. To the Moslems of the west, it represents purity and is consider a crown. Women among our Nation, wear there turban in a crisp V style or pyramid, with a blue button displaying a crescent moon and star, along with the letters MA. It is truly a symbol of Modesty and respect for ones self.

Source: "The Turban and It's Significance"

"She is clothed with neatness, she is fed with temperance; humility and meekness are as a crown of glory circling her head."

-Holy Koran of the Moorish Science Temple of America, Chapter XXI, verse 7

When Moorish American women learn how to tie a turban in the style of our ancestors, there is true significance in every act, it is more than just a fashion statement or style of dress. Turbans are actually an ancient form of spiritual practice.  Many people do not know this, so we will discuss the spiritual, esoteric meaning behind wearing the turban.

Hadiths of the Moorish Prophet

*Disclaimer* The source of many of these prophecies are unknown or shaky at best. These are not officially taught in the Moorish Science Temple of America. I still wish to share this as it does represent an aspect of Moorish American history and oral sayings. While many of these sayings are commonly accepted amongst various Moors and may have truth to them, I advise you to keep this context in mind and proceed with caution.

For example, we have no way of knowing whether or not some of these sayings were spoken by those who claimed to be reincarnations of the Prophet, especially the quotes that do not list who heard the Prophet Noble Drew Ali speak. There is also the possibility that some of the quotes can be distortions of the original words spoken by the Prophet relayed by secondary and tertiary sources. Anyone remember the telephone game from childhood? Keep that in mind and use caution while reading this information.


Prepared, in due time.
1. The master took down from the wall a scroll on which was written down the number and the name of every attribute and character.  He said,
2. The circle is the symbol of the perfect man, and seven is the number of the perfect man;
3. The logos is the perfect word; that which creates; that which destroys, and that which saves.
4. This Hebrew master is the Logos of the Holy One, the Circle of the human race, the seven of time.
5. And in the record book the scribe wrote down, The Logos-Circle-Seven; and thus was Jesus known.

The Hadith

1. The Holy Prophet Noble Drew Ali told the Moors, “I brought you everything it takes to save a nation take it and save yourself.” When He said that, the Prophet was holding up a Holy Koran of the Moorish Science Temple of America and a Questionnaire to show us the books we need to save ourselves with.

2. The Holy Prophet told the Moors, “Children, you are at home, and the European is 5,000 miles from home, and he is going to have to take some water”. Reported by Bro. O. Payton-Bey, Temple 25, Detroit, Michigan.

3. Bro. I. Cook-Bey and other Moors said The Holy Prophet said, “My good Moors are going to live.”

4. The Holy Prophet said, “I am going to stop the European from thinking, and start you (The Moors) to thinking for your own good.”

5. Sister A. Brown El of Temple 25 said that the Holy Prophet said, “If you got people in the South, get them out, because that is where destruction is going to start.”

6. The Holy Prophet told The Moors, “For the various lynchings and murders that were committed in the South; the South is going to have to pay off, and pay off in blood.”

7. Bro. J. Foster-Bey of Temple 4 and 25, said that the Holy Prophet said, “Every word that I speak is spirit, and you Moors had better heed.”

8. Bro. G. Cook-Bey, G.S. (Emeritus) of Temple 1, Chicago, III. said that the Holy Prophet said, “Look around, and where you see people; one day, wild animals will be roaming down the streets.”

9. Bro. J. Foster-Bey, Asst. G.S. of Temple 25 and a member of Temple 4 in the 1920’s said that the Holy Prophet said, “When the fire comes, I will be the water.”

10. Moors that saw and heard the Holy Prophet said that He said, “What is all these people doing here. There is only going to be a handful saved.
