Often
I am asked: (1) How can we live separately from the white people in the same
country? (2) How can we be independent of them? (3) Would the white Americans
agree to a separate territory for us in some suitable area where we could
go for self and live alone in peace? (4) Would we get along in peace with
each other?
The first question is very easy to answer: The black and white people, according to history, have always lived separately from each other. They were originally separated by God and the Law of God forbids their intermixing, or intermarrying.
The earth was originally inhabited by the Black Man. Families to Themselves. Later on as color (brown, yellow, red) began among them by the original scientists, (says the word of Allah to me) they became families to themselves, and from families to tribes : the term used today is races' or "nations."
Most of the black remained in the east along and below the equator of the earth. The white race, after their creation 6,000 years ago, was given the part of earth today that is called Europe. It is this race of people who actually started the sin of intermixing the two strange bloods, which is forbidden by God, just as they have disregarded all Divine Laws of Allah (God).
They even seem to change the very natural laws of man in which he is made. They first mixed with the original black Arabs, then as they traveled over the earth, for the past near 500 years, they mixed with brown, yellow and red races.
They captured the blacks and made slaves of them. For the past 400 years, they have used them (so-called Negroes) for experimental purposes and even uses them now as one uses his tool !
How Independence Is Born The 2nd question: How can we be independent of the white race? Answer: When a people is smart enough to look and dig the earth and get what she produces, her secret treasures hidden under the surface along with her water, air, and sunshine, that people can be self-supporting as other smart nations are, who are independent of each other. Some may have in their part of the earth that which the other does not have; then comes the exchange of resources to others through peaceful means, a trade and exchange of goods with each nation.
Only disagreement, and war, and fighting between each other would prevent such necessary union of Nations to get that from the other nations that she does not produce. A new nation should not isolate itself from national or international trade. However, this does not mean mixing blood with each other.
The borders of a black and white separate state should be as strict as any nation's borders, protected by passports and visas for all people. Think, the so-called Negroes and white Americans should have such restrictions and laws between them to maintain peace. Intelligent Will Agree
The 3nd question: Would white America agree to a separate territory for us, the black, once slaves of the Americans? Answer: I do believe the intelligent minds of America would agree to the separation of us into some place other than trying to continue making us live with them with the same respect and justice that they enjoy - not to mention the mixing of bloods and the complete care of us. If they see you and me in honest togetherness on some of this earth that we can call our own, even with some help as Egypt did for Israel on Israel 's departure, they will respect us.
The 4th question: Would we get along in peace if we were put together to live together? Answer: I know we would, if our national religion would be ISLAM : this I am proving to you daily. It's God In Islam . See how peacefully my followers and I get along together? It is God in the religion of Islam who inspires love, unity and peace in the hearts and actions of every true believer.
Once you accept Islam, you do not even like to dispute and quarrel with the brothers or sisters. Allah will soon put Islam in the hearts of all the lost found members of the Tribe of Shabazz . Of course, there is that vast continent of Asia and Africa who will welcome every Lost found Muslim in America to share with them, if others fail.
It is a MUST that we be separated into some part of this earth that we can call our own. Next, do we have the qualified men and women among the black people of America to run a government of self ?
