As-Salaam Alaikum
In the text dialogue allegedly between Fard and Einstein, there is a
reference to Nuclear War. Please note that in 1933, there were no
nuclear weapons and the term for such was "atom bomb" or atomic weapons"
which didn't appear until the mid 1940s. That language alone makes me
question the validity of the alleged conversation.

In the Name of Allah, Who came in the Person of Master Fard Muhammad. I forever thank Him for raising up his Last and Greatest Messenger, The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad (peace be upon him)
Wa-Alaikum-Salaam.
Thank you for visiting Muhammad Speaks Website. And thank you for taking the time to write and share your thoughts with us.
I have spent and am spending a great deal of time investigating "the validity of the alleged conversation".
A few years ago I cleared the question of the language of atomic bombs and nuclear war at a time when there were none.
In the following words, I share with you what I found concerning such 'language'.
"The fact that radium compounds are permanently at a higher temperature than their surroundings, and therefore that radium is constantly emitting heat, was first pointed out by Curie and Lourde [in 1903]. ...They found that radium emits heat at the rate of about 100 calories per hour per gram of radium. ...in its whole life radium emits a quantity of heat of the order of 1010 calories. When it is remembered that the union of hydrogen and oxygen to form 1 gramme of water causes an evolution of 3900 calories, the enormous store of energy within the atom in the case of the radioactive substances will be realised."
The above passage was written in 1929 by Sydney G. Starling, on the subject of Electricity and Magnetism for Advanced Students.
As seen from the quote above, the existence of "atomic energy" was known within a few years of the discovery of radioactivity in 1896. No chemical or physical process was found that could change the rate of release of that energy (by radioactive decay) until the discovery of uranium fission in 1939.
In August 1939, physicist Albert Einstein called President Franklin D. Roosevelt's attention to the possibility that "extremely powerful bombs of a new type" could be made from uranium, and that Germany might already be working on a bomb. That letter got the U.S. atom bomb project under way, and by 1945 the Manhattan Project was the largest single scientific and industrial enterprise of the war.
In the so-called "dialogue allegedly between Fard and Einstein" Einstein mentions that he is "INVOLVED IN CERTAIN EXPERIMENTS WHICH COVERS THE SCOPE OF 'ATOMIC ENLIGHTENMENT' AS WELL AS DEVELOPMENTS FOR THIS COUNTRY, IN CASE OF NUCLEAR WARFARE..."
I realize that experiments were being and had to be conducted by the United States and other countries before the "atom bomb" or "atomic weapons" actually came into existence.
I hope I have helped you in some way. If you find anything else that could help to confirm the truth or falsehood of this interview, please write and let me know.
Again, Thank you for writing.
Your Brother,
Levi Karim>>
