A Little of his History:
Brother Johnnie Muhammad was born August 27, 1907, in Courville, Georgia to William and Marie Muhammad - the same parents as Allah's Last and Greatest Messenger, The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad. Messenger Elijah Muhammad was nearly ten years old when Brother Johnnie was born.
Brother Johnnie Muhammad, like Messenger Elijah Muhammad, carried the slave name of Poole until 1931 when he reclaimed his own in the Nation of Islam, after meeting face to face with God in Person, though he firmly acknowledged that he "didn't know he was God at the time".
Brother Johnnie Muhammad, a hard-working FOI, worked for Chrysler Corporation for 30 years. Upon retirement he spend time with family and friends and continued his dedication to the Nation of Islam.
Brother Johnnie Muhammad was given the position of Investigator by Messenger Elijah Muhammad, and remained on that post as strong Witness Bearer to the Coming of Allah in the Person of Master Fard Muhammad and the raising up of His Last and Greatest Messenger, The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad, from 1931-until he departed peacefully on November 26, 1998.
His wife, Sister Ethel Muhammad, whom we will always remember as a prime example of what good MGT Sister should be; his daughter, Ruth, two grandsons, Thaddeus and Gregory, and eleven siblings preceded him in death.
Brother Johnnie Muhammad leaves to cherish his memories; his daughter, Bertha Durr; brother, Minister John Muhammad; eight grandchildren, Queenzella, Rodriquez, Renee, Kamal, Lynette (Ethel), Mark Twain, Andrea, and Kozetta; nineteen great-grandchildren; nine great-great grandchildren, three sisters-in-law, Marsie Woodson, Burnestine Muhammad and Yasmeen Muhammad; and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, Muslim Brothers and Sisters, and friend.
May you find comfort in the enduring beauty of Allah's word, and in the warmth of happy memories. With the passing of time, may the spirit of acceptance and inner peace enfold you.
With Love, From Brother Levi & Sister Zakiyah Karim
