Fasting
How To Eat To Live, Book Two
Chapter 14
There is so much food of various kinds in the earth for us to eat we could hardly mention by names.
We are the wisest of all life on earth and in the heavens above the earth. Almighty God, Allah, in the Person of Master Fard Muhammad, to Whom Praise is due forever, has taught me. We must have regularity in everything we do.
SINCE THE earth is full of food, this does not mean we should try to eat the food all day long. We should eat one meal a day and when we eat this one meal, be sure it is of the best food for our bodies to digest and to keep us alive without our lives being agitated by enemies from the food and drinks we put in our bodies.
We have to safeguard our health against the enemies of our health by eating one meal a day. This gives an enemy (germ) that may be in our food time to die – to be completely dead at the end of twenty-four hours.
IF WE KEEP adding more food, it gives the germ strength and working power to destroy the very delicate and perfect machinery of our bodies. By nature, we are made of the best. And, we have to continue to give our bodies the best and in a moderate way.
Fasting is one of the greatest “doctors” we have. Fasting is prescribed for us in the Holy Qur-an and in the Bible. The Bible does not teach us as much of how good fasting is health-wise, as the Holy Qur-an does.
THE BIBLE’S teaching on fasting is mostly spiritual purposes. On one occasion, we find where Moses fasted for the cure of his sister, Miriam, who had contracted leprosy because of speaking carelessly of Moses. Her brother (Moses) then had to seek a cure from God for her.
But fasting, as Allah prescribed for us, is to prolong our lives with better health by eating the right food and not eating too frequently.
FASTING DOES much for us. A three-day fast will tell the story – you feel better; your body begins to feel lighter and not weighty as it felt when it was filled with food; your thinking is clearer.
Let us fast as often as we feel that we have not a desire for food. If you do not desire food, do not eat it. Eat when you are very hungry (of course, this does not apply to the sick, because the sick are exempt from fasting).
When fasting is practiced for good, good results will follow. But, if we fast, as the Bible mentions in Isaiah, just for debate, our fast is no good. The Bible teaches that the fasts of people who go out and tell others that “I had a dream” and then call dreams, visions, are not accepted.
SOME PEOPLE tell stories about something they accomplish on the fast that they did not accomplish. The Bible answers such a person in these words; If you dream a dream, tell a dream and do not try to tell a dream for a vision from the Lord, when you did not get such a vision.
We must remember that we cannot be “holier than thou,” unless we are really holy. So, let us say of ourselves what we really are and not what we are not because it is good in the eye sight of God for us to speak the truth.
FAST! It cleans the impurities out of the blood and causes the body to eliminate the poison stored in it from previous meals – sometimes from previous meals of many years, as the folds in our intestines can carry particles of food for a long time, and holds strength enough in them to keep us alive for two months. Our bodies store food in the folds of the intestines and in the blood stream.
After a fast of three days – and from that to nine days – these particles of food and poison that have accumulated will be eliminated. The blood is being cleansed of its impurities because the impurities have nothing to keep them in power to live; therefore, they die and leave the person happy and enjoying the results of a healthy body – which is the greatest enjoyment we can have.
WE ARE TAUGHT…and all religions teach fasting…so that includes us too. Of course, as long as we are in the Presence of God, we do not have to fast. But, we are not always in His Presence. In the Hereafter when all people will receive rewards of goodness who see the Hereafter, there will be no fasting.
WE, THE RIGHTEOUS, must fast as long as we are present and among the unrighteous. So, fasting is prescribed for us as well as those (people) before us. Let us look at the verse in the Holy Qur’an 2:183 translated by Maulana Muhammad Ali (copyright-1963): O you who believe, fasting is prescribed for you, as it is prescribed for those before you, so that you may guard against evil.” Here it tells us why fasting is prescribed for us. It guards us against doing evil. Read the footnote of Maulana Muhammad Ali’s translation of this chapter for footnote. No.225.
WE HERE (Elijah Muhammad and his Followers)…I prescribe for you the month of December to fast in – if you are able to take the fast – instead of the regular month that travels through the year, called Ramadan by the Muslims; the month in which they say Muhammad received the Holy Qur’an.
WHY DID I prescribe for you the month of December? It is because it was in this month that you used to worship a dead prophet by the name of Jesus. And, it was the month that you wasted your money and wealth to worship the 25th day of this month, December, as the Christians do. The Christians know that it is not the birthday of Jesus; for they do not know the birthday of Jesus. No one knows it, because being persecuted by the Jews, Joseph and Mary feared the death of not only their newborn baby that they were bringing to birth, but even feared for their own lives for committing the act out of wedlock. They feared Herod and his army and the religious sect of the Jews condemning them to be punished with death. But, they were not to be killed for they were for a sign of the Black Man in America, according to the Holy Qur-an. See Holy Qur-an, Chapter 4:171.
While Christians have deceived you in worshiping the birthday of Nimrod who was born the 25th day of that month, no man knows the day Jesus was born, but they (Joseph and Mary) themselves. This is a sign right there; no man of the evil world was to know when the spiritual birth of Muhammad was to take place. And, surely they do not know. So, do not fast as the other religious people fast, for they have different objects and ways in which they fast, which are against the meaningful fasts that we take.
FASTING takes away evil desires. Fasting takes from us filthy desires. Fasting takes from us the desire to do evil against self and our brothers and sisters. We are created of the material of goodness. Therefore, good belongs to us…and it should not be hard for us to turn to our own selves in which we were created…good.
WE are approaching the month of December, in which we usually abstain from eating in the daylight hours, as the Orthodox Muslims do, the ninth (9th) month of their calendar, the month of Ramadan.
I set up this for you and me, to try to drive out of us the old white slavemaster’s worship of a false birthday (December 25th) of Jesus.
ALLAH (God) Who Came in the Person of Master Fard Muhammad, to Whom Praises are due forever, Taught me, that Jesus was not even born during the entire month of December.
THE scholars agree, that according to their history, Jesus could not have been born in December.
ALLAH (God) Taught me that Jesus was born between the first and second week in September, instead of December. But no one knew the day of Jesus’ birth except Joseph and Mary.
BECAUSE of the Jews’ hot persecution against the birth of Jesus, the exact day of his birth was kept a secret, from the public. So, to break my people up from the worship of a false birthday of Jesus, we turned to abstaining from eating in the daylight hours during the month of December. This is, in no way, a FAST!
WHEN we abstain from food for so short a time as from early morning until after sundown and darkness begins to appear – we cannot call this a FAST, for we are eating the same way that we have always been eating (one meal in that day). IT is no FAST to me and to my followers to eat a meal after Sundown. We cannot call it a FAST!
A FAST should be from two (2) to three (3) days without eating food. If we are seeking spiritual advancement, we should fast for three days.
IN the case of Orthodox Muslims worshiping Ramadan by not eating until after sunset, and darkness approaches (they can eat all night long if they want to, until the next morning at dawn) – they call this a FAST!
THEY say that they do this in the Month of Ramadan because Ramadan is the month in which the Holy Qur-an was revealed to Muhammad.
BUT, the way that I understand scripture, it teaches us that Muhammad received the Holy Qur-an over a period of twenty-three (23) years.
MUHAMMAD did not receive the Holy Qur-an in one night or in one day. And, if he received the whole Holy Qur’an in the month of Ramadan, WHY FAST in that month?
IF we are given what we want (Holy Qur’an) in that month, without FASTING, I cannot understand why we should FAST in the month of Ramadan, for the first revelation of the Holy Qur’an was already given in that month, without FASTING.
IT would look more proper for us to be rejoicing over the great salvation (Holy Qur’an) that Allah (God) sent to us, in the month of Ramadan.
If you can convince me it is necessary to Fast in the month of Ramadan because of Muhammad receiving the Holy Qur-an, or the first revelation of the Holy Qur-an, then I will go along with it. However, since the Qur-an was received over a period of years, I am very much baffled in trying to understand why we should FAST in the month of Ramadan.
WE should be rejoicing because of receiving the Holy Qur’an and we should teach others to rejoice throughout the month of Ramadan, if it is because the Holy Qur’an was revealed in that month.
OF COURSE, this is the Arab way, in their religious belief, that they should FAST. But I do say that it is not necessary to FAST to get something that you have already received.
WE should all thank Allah and be grateful to Allah (God) for Giving us the truth, or the Great Revelation (Holy Qur’an), that will guide us into a clearer truth than we have had in the past.
SO, I am not asking my followers to FAST in the month of December because of the birth of a prophet (Jesus) nor do we want to worship his birth or worship because some great Revelation was sent down to another prophet. No, it is just to keep my followers from worshiping falsehood, instead of truth, and to prevent them from spending their money in the falsehood of Santa Claus.
There are so many untruths that the people of untruth (white race) have mislead us in. We must come out of untruth, we must come out of falsehood.
I do know that FASTING is good. I have tried FASTING for many years myself. I do know that FASTING is good for our health and FASTING is good for our spiritual advancement.
IT is actually good for us to take a FAST and abstain from eating food for a period of days.
BUT, you are not actually FASTING when you are going to eat everyday, regardless to what time you may set for the meal. If you eat within twenty four (24) hours, you cannot really consider it as a FAST.
AND, so I say to my followers, WE ARE NOT FASTING (in December) we are just abstaining from taking a part with false worship. We abstain from eating meat throughout the month of Ramadan – the month of December.
It is good for us to abstain from eating meat, for we should not eat meat at all. Meat is not good for our health nor for our body.
ACTUALLY by nature, we are not made to live off meat.
ALLAH, (God) Who Came in the Person of Master Fard Muhammad, to Whom Praises are due forever, Taught me, that no meat is good for us, except the little pigeon (squab) that has never flown from its nest. But, we eat meat.
BEEF – coarse meat, such as beef – we should not wear out our stomach trying to digest this coarse meat. We should not eat any meat – not even lamb.
FISH – we can eat fish. Fish is raised under a different atmosphere. Fish is from a different world of life. Fish is born and fish lives, in the water of life. Fish is good for us.
BIRDS – ALLAH (God) Taught me that no bird is good for us to eat, and if you watch the nature of a bird, you will also agree that the bird is not fit to eat.
BUT, following a people who the Holy Qur’an describes as ‘eating like a beast’ (white race) – they eat anything that they want to eat and they do not care concerning the harm that it is doing to their life. It is hard to live a hundred (100) years eating the way the white race eats – not to think of being able to live from 200 to 900 years like Noah and Methuselah lived.
ALLAH (God) Who Came in the Person of Master Fard Muhammad, to Whom Praises are due forever, Taught me that the people of the planet Mars lives 1,200 of our earth years.
I do not know what they eat of their planet life, as Allah (God) did not Teach me what they eat. And I did not ask Him in the first place.
THE PEOPLE of MARS eat what their planet produces for them to eat, as the planet produced the people of Mars and it produces the food that they eat. I do not know what the planet produces, other than the people of Mars.
IF I could fly to Mars, I do not know whether I could say, “Prepare, fish, lamb or chicken,” and have it prepared for me.
FAST – for 3 days – FAST for 3 x 3 days, FAST for 9 days or FAST for 27 days. FASTING is good for us. It gives our blood time to cleanse itself, and in so doing it makes us think clearer.
IF you make a habit of FASTING – you are not going to get sick. Abstain from eating, if you are eating the right kind of food, you can FAST but when you eat again, you poison your body.
STAY AWAY from that which is not good for us.
ABSTAINING FROM FOOD, FROM THE RISING OF THE SUN, UNTIL THE SUN SETS – THIS IS NOT FASTING.
Fasting Is Prescribed
HOW TO EAT TO LIVE, BOOK TWO
Chapter 15
Eat good food which has been prescribed in this book. Do not eat over one meal a day.
Dry beans (navy beans) and whole bread are good for us. We do not have to go around looking for all kinds of foods. Just one common kind will do. Give the body some time to rest.
FASTING is a great act upon true Believers of the true religion of God (Islam). This also helps prolong our lives.
It is prescribed for us in the Law of the religion of Islam (Holy Qur-an). All Muslims who respect fasting should take the fast of Ramadan. We are not taking the month of Ramadan as prescribed in the Holy Qur-an. We take the Christians’ month (December, the twelfth month), instead of the ninth month.
This month I prescribe for you to fast (the twelfth month of the Christian year) for the purpose of getting you away from the false teaching of the Jesus’ Birth on the 25th of December. God Has Taught Me that he was born between the first and the second week of September and not December.
This day, (the 25th of December) He Taught Me was the birth date of that demon Nimrod, who was born in the Seventeenth century of Moses’ era before the birth of Jesus.
He was so wicked that the Scholars and Scientists of Scripture of the Prophets do not like to teach you of this history of Nimrod. And, if it was the birthdate of that righteous Prophet Jesus, you most certainly in your celebration of the 25th of December have not been showing a clean and holy celebration of a righteous person with your drunkenness and your gambling. Your everything but right is committed on the 25th day of December in celebrating the birth of a righteous man. But, you are not doing so for righteousness, you are celebrating the birth date of an evil person and the white Christians will send you all the whiskey and beer and wine and swine that you want to eat and drink on that day.
RAMADAN is the ninth month of the Arab year (which is also twelve months and not nine months). The Holy Qur-an teaches that twelve months have always been a year with God. We are not able to satisfy the astronomists if we do not have a twelve month year, for it takes the earth 12 months to make its complete circuit around the sun and this is why we call it one year (after its completion of this circuit made by the earth as an average distance of 93 million miles).
Ramadan, the Holy Qur-an teaches us, is the month that the Holy Qur-an was revealed to Muhammad. And they worship the month by abstaining from eating and drinking during the day time from sun up to sun down or before the sun rises until after she sets in the Western skies.
Then, after dark, we can eat and drink until the sun rises again the next day. The significance of this Arabic fasting in Ramadan is that the spiritual darkness of Yakub’s made man (the white race); eating and drinking, sport and play was the order of the white world, until the day break of Truth coming in the first of the seven thousand years after the six thousand years of spiritual darkness and evil of the white man’s world.
WE ARE living now in the bright spiritual world of Allah, the Great Mahdi in the Person of Master Fard Muhammad, to Whom Praise is due forever, therefore we are not the children of darkness, but the children of light and truth.
Actually, Divinely, there is no fast set for the children of the light of God and their fasting ceases. But, until we have accomplished our work of perfection of self and separation of us from the spiritual darkness of Yakub’s made man and teachings, we fast to get out of it and take a month that we used to worship as being the month in which the birth of Jesus came about.
There is no such thing that we should worship any white people’s holidays. All that they worship are their days and not the slaves (the Black peoples) days.
There is not one that we should worship. The past Thanksgiving Day that you were celebrating – what do you have to thank God and man for that last Thursday of November? Surely you should thank God for allowing you to live to see that day, but this was the man’s day (Yakub’s made man).
The Black Man should not take any part in any white people’s holidays not even to Sunday. These are not our days. Please remember this.
I WILL take you further into this knowledge if you write me, as space here in our book is limited.
The Muslims, as I foresaid, do not eat nor drink from before sunrise until she (the sun) has set. If you take it (the fast of Ramadan) with them, you are doing the right thing, until this evil world has vanished.
BECAUSE OF the fascination of food to the eye, the smell of food, and the imaginary taste of food, we follow our eyes and our tastes to our graves, by eating the wrong food too often.
FROM THE EDITOR

As-Salaamu ‘Alaikum My Beloved And Beautiful Ukhtis!!! ❤ ❤ ❤ 🙂
What a fabulous year this has been!!!
I pray Allah you all accomplished much and are prepared to enter 2025!!!
Personally, I finally replaced my state I.D. after two years of attempts!!! AL HAMDULILLAH!
I know it is really cool to live OFF THE GRID and be incognito and maneuver through this devils world with little observation, but I am fifty-two and one half and about two weeks and it is just EASIER…. 🙂
So Al Hamdulillah!!!
In sha Allah NEXT YEAR will be SUPER PRODUCTIVE and PROGRESSIVE.
I have a short list of things I would like to accomplish. My goal is for AUGUST. I figure if I aim to complete my goals by AUGUST, then by the end of the year, I will be assured of success and ready to move on. Al Hamdulillah!
I pray you all had a successful Ramadhan and are prepared to continue eating in the same manner because actually we are supposed to eat that way all year long, meaning ONE-MEAL-A-DAY; NO MEAT and if you read HOW TO EAT TO LIVE, Our Beloved Messenger (Salah Allahu Alaihi Wa Salaam) mentions that nighttime is for eating and drinking.
So, ideally, we should eat our meals after Maghrib throughout the year. Al Hamdulillah!
All Praise is due to Allah, The Most Merciful, who understands and allows what He pleases. 🙂
Technically, the NEW YEAR begins in SPRING with the rebirth of the planet, and life returns and most animals reproduce also, but it is what it is. 🙂

Insurance Provider UNITED HEALTHCARE was targeted on Wednesday the fourth of December 2024 when its Chief Executive, 50-year-old, Brian Thompson, was shot and killed outside a hotel in New York City.
HOW TO KEEP HOUSE
Ever since someone gave me a little pink jewelry box with a pop-up ballerina twirling to taichoivsky, I have had a thing for “curio” boxes.
Decorative wooden ones are a particular favorite.

I also incline toward leather bound journals. ✍🏿🙄

In any case, on my latest Target 🎯 Run, I promised myself I was only gonna run in and the four things on my mental list and run out!
Yeah, right.
On my way to the cashier, as usual, I got sidetracked.
My new favorite seems to be located smack dab in the middle of the store so that it is IMPOSSIBLE to miss it.
So, there I am, in the Hearth and Home or whatever section, ostensibly looking for a 🔔.
For some reason, probably because lately I have been musing about my childhood spent perusing old photo albums which had been kept in a display case with a collection of souvenir dinner bells.
My last Run, I settled for some “jingle” bells and they have sufficed remarkably well.
Some wind chimes would also probably satisfy this latest craving of mine for some metallically-sourced music. 😊
So the last decorative box I owned was this BEAUTIFUL box covered with mirrors that spanned the length of the box, I snagged at the Goodwill.
It was a really magnificent work of art.
At only 12.99, I can’t really complain because I did get it from Goodwill but for the mirrors to start falling off the next day is really unspeakably disappointing.
I attempted to super glue them back on but it only lasted another couple of days and although it took me awhile to be able to bring myself to the point where I could part with it, it eventually ended up with my recyclable glass.


It was something like these but shorter and longer.
Also the glass on top was sectioned into three long beveled mirrors.
I learned while searching for a photograph that this particular style of jewelry box has a name – MAXINE. 😏😎
I also had an engraved wooden one like the ones described and pictured above shortly before that but lately have been inclining more toward my aloha pouches for storing my things.
(LEAVE A COMMENT BELOW IF YOU WANT ONE. 🙂 ❤ ❤ ❤ $5.00 donation plus shipping 🙂

I also recently lucked up on a perfect for me sized tool kit wherein I am able to store ALL my art supplies. الحمد لله

Click on the photograph to purchase from TARGET (only a dub) and o-so perfect for organizing your hobby/craft/tools/whatever!
There are a couple of videos to show everything that comes in it.
The second one is the best imho for showing everything you get also how handy and PORTABLY COMPACT the bin is in itself! I LOVE IT!!! ❤ ❤ ❤
Okay, so I have discussed everything else possible so now I come bak to today’s run.
I saw the cashier from last time who thew in that chees I really wanted.
I gushed over him until it got awkward and we were both embarrassed but I also got some MORE cheese 😊😉 AND another little box.

I think I went in too deep.
I have no idea what I am going to do with this.
I have to use it as a BOX.
Problem is how to keep from breaking it?

I put my tea leaves in it 🙂 ❤ ❤ ❤
HOW TO REAR OUR CHILDREN
HOMEMADE D.I.Y. LANTERNS
A few issues ago, I featured Islamic lanterns and I was able to purchase a small one around the same time.
In the interim said latern became disfunctional and I was able to create my own lanterns using the lower portion of a water bottle.
Being homeless a lantern is almost a necessity what with the wind and no electricity at night time.
I had purchased two small apple shaped plastic apple juices and cut out the top portion and have been using them ever since.
I was thinking about painting them but that was a problem with my other lantern.
The stained glass dimmed the light whereas it was really ineffective.
