Master W. D. Fard Muhammad was a man who came to Detroit in the 1930s to teach black people about Islam and change their lives for the better. He founded the Nation of Islam and uplifted black people who were facing immense struggles at the time.

Master W. D. Fard Muhammad was born in 1891 in Mecca. He was sent to America to find the 'Lost Tribe of Shabazz' and teach black people who had lost their history and identity. He founded the Nation of Islam in Detroit in 1930 and taught black nationalism and self-sufficiency.

When Master Fard arrived, black people in Detroit were facing high rates of unemployment, poverty, poor health and low self-esteem due to the oppression they faced. His teachings of Islam, black pride and economic independence had a hugely positive impact and transformed their lives.

Ma ster W. D . Fard Muhammad was born Feb.26,~871


H" M h
in ArabiatHis Fathers name was Alphon~o.Allah an~ 1S ot.ers
name -was Baby Gee . He was born of a Father who was a Blackseed1 - b 0

and a Mother who was White.WHY??Because He had a spec1-a ~o to


do,tha~ required a Unique Body a Special Body,a Body that would
allow Him to travel from East to West and to perform a Duty
which would change the course of World events forever.
Alphonso was. approched by the 23 Wise Scienti~t of the Eas~
on who was Li ghtsk~n in complex10n
to marry an d glve b 1rtn to a S
O O '

.
for a Special Job whic~ was to find the Lost Tr~be of ~habazz.
So Alphonso went a~d married Baby Gee and the flrst Ch1ld She
gave Birth to was a Daughter and Alphonso said I missed that
Time and tried again,this Time She Born Him a Son.Alphonso tau~ht
and raised Fard until the Age of Seven,at which time He turn h~m
(Fard) over to the 23 Wise Scientist who trained,taught and
pre~ared Fard for the journey to the Western Hemisphere in search
,..-..
of the. 1/3 of Knowledge that was lost .in the Atmosphere.
Fards first journey to the West was in search of the former
Kings and Queens of Asia who was stolen from their Home Land and
force into Slavery.These.were the members of the God-Head Tribe
of Shabazz.
It was in the year 1910 when Fard first made His appearance
in North America.He stayed approximately. 3 years looking and
searching for the members of the God-Head Tribe of Shabazz,but
instead what He found were people who no longer had the proper
Knowledge of themselves,who were truly Dead,Sleep and Hypnotize.
Who no longer was Kings and Queens but had become Slaves of a
Mental Death and Power infact they were now known as so-called
American Negroes. .

So Master F~rd who came here seeking.a People who once Ruled
Asia,but have now been 'reduce to a Sub-~Jman Sttate.Left the West
and return to the East to report the condition of us to the 23
Wise Scientist.Who when hearing of Our condition wanted to fo~get
us and considered us beyond help.
But Fard refuse to give up on us and prepared His Self to
come help us find ourselves.In the year 1930 W.D.Fard came to
the City of Detroit and began teaching Black People ISLAM.W.D.
Fard was not a fraud but a true Man.In order to understand the'
Ti~es and Conditions of the People when this.Man appeared,lets
rerlect a moment.In the 30's the Great.Depression had just
taken place and America wasn't doing to well,so you know Black
People were catching Hell.When Fard came we were uneducated,
unemployed,and poor.We Hat~d Ourselves and Thought our Color
was Ugly,we ate PQxk Meat all Day and therefore suffered many
Ill's.We Drunk Wine and cursed (a very Foul-Mouthed Peop'le)and
only took a ~at1J.once a Weeksand ~herefore'~~~y--of us Stunk

l --
,.

This is the type of people W.D.Fard came to because He valued


us so muchlHe once said that He would Eat Rattle Snakes or climb
a Mountain 40 miles high just to save one Blackman.When the
United Snakes Government attempted to stop Fard's' teachings
Franklin D.Rooservelt tbld him:"that trying to save your people
is li~e trying to put a pair of Pants on a Elephant"and Vard
replied:"Well I have one s~de of the Pants on already,because
I have found my Messenger!"
W.D.Fard, had chose a Man named Elijah Poole to be His top
Minister,and some of the others became jealous and envious
because they felt that they were much better 'speakers then
Elijah,ahd more educated.A ,few of those who became 'jealous were
Father Divine(George Baker) and Daddy Grace(Charles Emmanuel
Grace) and they had refused to hold fast to the Truth and went
out and created comforts for themselves.After ~.D.Fard specially
taught Elijah for+Rree and a half years,He had gave Him the
name "Muhammad".
And this Muhammad (Elijah Muhammad) has labored for the
Blackman and Woman for over 40 years and ne~er took a days
rest from His Mission.He taught us that we were Black long before
it was popular to be Black.He had refusea to compromise His Life
giving Teachings with the Arabs of Mecca Because of their Arab
Dollarism,He even went so far as to say:"That He wouldn't give
two cents for their kind of God"(Muhammad Speaks Newspaper/
April 1982 Blackman of U.S.A.-Africa).Muhammad had suffered
daily for ,the truth that He taught and one day when true History
has its say so,His Tale of Woe will be Told.He had left us a
Legacy of 125 Schools(Universities of Islam),Farm Land,Restaurant
-s,Super Markets,and a Suprem~ Love for ourselves. Some of the
Great Men who have been affected by the Teachings of Elijah'
,-.
Muhammad were:Malcolm X.The Father (ALLAH) Clarence Puddin 13X,
Wallace Muhammad,Minister Louis Farrakhan,Sglis Muhammad,Sayyid
Al Imam Isa;and Bin-Isreal to name a few. .

Many of the ~ollowers of Elijah Muhammad(including His Family


and top staff members) never really understood the depths of His
Teachings,they were not able to elevate His Words above six.
Many of His followers only bear-wittness to Him on the Physical
and Earthly Plane,and not on tbe Mental and Heavenly Plane,and
sqthus; when they could no longer see His mere Physical Body,
they themselves began to Die and ,Deteriorate.
ALLAH (the Father) came in the Spring of 1964 and gave birth
to the Nation of Gods and Earths,also known as the Five Percent
(5%).WhileALLAH was in the Mosq~e He was under the name of
Clarence 13X,bu~ through His constant studying and Building He
educated above that name and came into the realization of Himself
as being a"True and Living God".As the Muslims failed to und~r-
stand ALLAH's degree of Consciousness, it was Minister Malcolm X
and Captain Joseph who had asked ALLAH to leave the Mosque'
(Temple#7),and 90 days later Minister Malcolm X Himself haqklso
left the Mosque and came to the Ghettoes of Harlem to visit ALLAH
and ALLAH had explained to Minister Malcolm X that His 'Job was
to reach and Teach the Old,and that ALLAH's ~ob was to reach and
Teach the Young.
Long before the late Marvin Gaye recorded"save the Babies"
ALLAH had already began saving the Babies.While many Mothers
often abandoned and left their Children alone in the Streets at
Night,it was ALLAH who reachead out to save and Teach them of
their fullest potential and of their capacity to be True and
Living Gods,thus ALLAH had become an automatic hit with the

ALLAH knew that organized ,Religion and so-called Islam was not
, -the answer to the Blackmans problem.ALLAH was.able to break the
seal of the Prophets and bring us face to face with the Reality
of God and the Devil.When ALLAH came to us He didn't Pimp the
Teachings,He din't Mack the Teachings,and He didn't Capitalize
on the Teachings,But He gave Truth up pure,c~ean,and un-cut(and
He told it like it is). .

There is no God outside of Man and there is no Man outside of


God.Many who ba.e searched for God have looked all over,but never
took the time to look within side themselves.ALLAH knew that the
Divine Knowledge of Man being God was essential to the Freedom
and Liberation of Black People,because as long as the 'Blackman
fail to see H~mself as the True and Living'God He will continue
to wait for a pon-existant God and dead Prophets to do that which
He can do for Ris Self.We become Blind by Religious Dogma and
wait for the return of the dead instead of Fighting for Freedom.
ALLAH had rejected the limitations which this limited World
had placed upon Rim.The Scriptures ,and History has shown that
Black People come from a long lineage of Ancestor's whom for
Centuries have been recognized as GODS.The Sacred Knowledge of
Man Being ~on is nothing new,the Slave Master had just robbed
and kept that Knowle9ge hidden from us because they know of it's
value and impact. .
