KNOW THYSELF

Chapter 18

Original Man

Know Thyself


     It is knowledge of self that the so-called Negroes lack which keeps them from enjoying freedom, justice and equality. This belongs to them divinely as much as it does to other nations of the earth.

     It is Allah’s (God’s) will and purpose that we shall know ourselves. Therefore He came Himself to teach us the knowledge of self. Who is better knowing of who we are than God, Himself? He has declared that we are descendants of the Asiatic Black Nation and the Tribe of Shabazz.

     You might ask, who is this Tribe of Shabazz? Originally, they were the tribe that came with the earth (or this part) 66 trillion years ago when a great explosion on our planet divided it into two parts. One we call earth and the other moon.

     This was done by one of our scientists, God, who wanted the people to speak one language, one dialect for all, but was unable to bring this about. He decided to kill us by destroying our planet, but still he failed. We were lucky to be on this part, earth, which did not lose its water in the mighty blasting away of the part called moon.

     We, the Tribe of Shabazz, says Allah (God), were the first to discover the best part of our planet to live on. The rich Nile Valley of Egypt and the present seat of the Holy City, Mecca, Arabia.

     The origin of our kinky hair, says Allah, came from one of our dissatisfied scientists, 50,000 years ago, who wanted to make all of us tough and hard in order to endure the life of the jungles of East Asia (Africa) and to overcome the beasts there. But he failed to get the others to agree with him.

     He took his family and moved into the jungle to prove to us that we could live there and conquer the wild beasts, and we have. So, being the first and the smartest scientist on the deportation of our moon and the one who suffered most of all, Allah (God) has decided to place us on the top with a thorough knowledge of self and His guidance.

     We are the mighty, the wise, the best, but do not know it. Being without the knowledge, we disgrace ourselves, subjecting ourselves to suffering and shame. We could not get the knowledge of self until the coming of Allah. To know thyself is to know all men, as from us came all and to us all will return.

     I must keep warning you that you should be give up the white race’s names and religion in order to gain success. Their days of success are over. Their rule will last only as long as you remain asleep to the knowledge of self.

     Awake and know that Allah has revealed the truth. Stop believing in something coming to you after you are physically dead. That is untrue, and no one can show any proof of such belief.

     Again, know that Jesus was only a prophet and cannot hear you pray any more than Moses or any other dead prophet. Know too, that this white race was created to be the enemy of black mankind for 6,000 years, which makes their number to be six. That is not your number or mine. We do not have a number, because we have no birth record. Do not let anyone fool you. This is the separation and the War of Armageddon.

Holy Qur-an

Surah (Chapter) 112

Al-Ikhlas — The Unity

Revealed at Makkah: 4 verses

English Translation by Maulana Muhammad Ali


In the Name of Allah, The Beneficent, The Merciful.

112:1 Say: He, Allah, is One.

112:2 Allah is He on Whom all depend.

112:3 He begets not, nor is He begotten;

112:4 And none is like Him.

As-Salaamu ‘Alaikum Beautiful and Beloved, BOLD and BLACK Sisters!

I can’t believe I’m just now posting this Surah! Next to Al Fatiha, this is THE most important Surah in the whole Holy Qur-an! It teaches us of the ONENESS of Allah (God); putting to rest, for once and for all, the Christians’ false belief in three gods.

This Surah is also the source of A LOT of misunderstanding among those who have not been given the True Knowledge and the Wisdom of The Holy Qur-an. The Holy Qur-an is the most TRUE Book you can read, if you rightly understand it.

The problem arises when unlearned people pick it up and just start reading it without having been taught the meanings.

For example, if one were to just pick up a Holy Qur-an and start reading it, they would erroneously think that there is life after death. This must be understood. The Holy Qu-ran also speaks of a Resurrection. This can also easily be misunderstood. The Holy Qur-an has to be TAUGHT in order for you to understand it rightly. There is nothing after this physical body returns to the earth from whence it came and there is no one who has ever come back from a physical death – Not Even the JESUS.

This is the reason why Abraham and his son, Ishmael, prayed to Allah (God) [Holy Qur-an 2:129], that He raise up a Prophet from among them (the so-called American Negroes) and teach to them the Knowledge and the Wisdom of the Book (Bible and Holy Qur-an).

This man was The Most Honorable and Humble Elijah Muhammad (May the Peace and the Blessings of Allah Forever Be Upon Him). He is the man about whom the Holy Qur-an prophesies “would be risen from among a people to whom no warner had come before.”

The so-called American Negroes are the only people to whom no Prophet (warner) has come.

Some Orthodox Muslims claim that this description is referring to Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) and the people of Mecca, Arabia. This description cannot possibly be referring to the people of Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) of 1400 years ago. The people of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) had had Abraham AND his sons, Ishmael and Isaac and many other Prophets as well. All Muslims know that Abraham returned the little Black Stone to its place at The Kaa’ba! So, I am very much baffled at HOW the Eastern Muslims and some African-American hypocrites can insinuate that the Holy Qur-an is referring to Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) of 1400 years ago and the people of Mecca when determining who are these people about whom the Holy Qur-an mentions.

It is, in fact, referring to The Honorable Elijah Muhammad (May the Peace and the Blessings of Allah forever be upon him)

The Honorable Elijah Muhammad's first Pittsburgh Courier Article

and you and I, Brothers and Sisters – the Lost and Now Found So-Called American Negroes – who have been killed mentally by the devils’ slavemaking religion of Christianity and by their adding in and out of the Bible when they translated it, making it the perfect slavemaking manual.

Our Saviour, Master Fard Muhammad, to Whom Praises are due forever, Calls it “THE POISON BOOK” in its current form and He Says that is it “THE GRAVEYARD OF OUR PEOPLE.”

But Al Hamdulillah! All Praises Are Due to Allah, Master Fard Muhammad, to Whom Praises are Due Forever, Who, in His INFINITE MERCY and WISDOM, raised up one from among us – our own Brother – to teach to us the Truth in the Bible and the Holy Qur-an that has been hidden to nine-tenths of the people of Earth for thousands of years.

Our Beloved Messenger (Peace Be Upon Him) lectured on this very Surah, wherein he related the details of a debate he had had with a so-called Orthodox Muslim.

Whenever I try to inform them of the ONE TRUE AND LIVING GOD, MASTER FARD MUHAMMAD, TO WHOM PRAISES ARE DUE FOREVER, they always bring up this Surah and bear witness to their own ignorance.

Eventually, they admit that they don’t know what they worship. They tell you Allah is unknown. They don’t know what He is! They don’t know what they are praying to! They are just like the Christians, who worship a nonexistent spook. If you cannot give a description of what you worship, you don’t worship anything.

Our Beloved Messenger (May the Peace and the Blessings of Allah Forever Be Upon Him) taught us that verse three is referring to The Creator and Master Fard Muhammad, to Whom Praises are Due Forever.

This is another Truth about Allah (God) that most people do not know, much less understand. I can only tell you what Our Beloved Messenger (PBUH) taught us:

“Well, we all know that there was a God in the beginning that created all these things and do know that He does not exist today. But we know again that from that God the person of God continued until today in His people, and today a Supreme One (God) has appeared among us with the same infinite wisdom to bring about a complete change.”

Message To The Blackman In America, page 9

The Blackman is God. However, among Black men, there are degrees of Knowledge, Wisdom and Understanding. There are some Black men who have more Power, Knowledge, Wisdom and Understanding than others. But there are some (fewer) who have even more Power, Knowledge, Wisdom and Understanding than those. And, there are still more who have even more Power, Knowledge, Wisdom and Understanding than these and so on…. Naturally, as the Knowledge, Wisdom and Understanding increases, the number of people decreases, until you reach the ONE WHO STANDS ALONE at the very top of this “Pyramid” of Power, Knowledge, Wisdom and Understanding. There you will find MASTER FARD MUHAMMAD, TO WHOM ALL PRAISES ARE DUE FOREVER; THE ONE WHO HAS ALL KNOWLEDGE, ALL WISDOM AND ALL UNDERSTANDING. 

There is none greater than Master Fard Muhammad, to Whom Praises are due forever. He has no associates and He has no equal. HE IS ALLAH. 

This is illustrated in the last verse, And none is like Him.

Back to verse three…

The Creator, Who Created Himself, was “not begotten” and Master Fard Muhammad, to Whom Praises are Due Forever, “begets not.”
