"Grandpa came from an traditional household. Meaning , he didn't believe in Grandma working. But sometimes funds would get low & grandma would do what she had to do. Which is playing the Numbers. It's an illegal form of Lottery that most play in the black ghetto. I ain't gettin into the details on this forum. Needless to say, we ate & survived off this as a supplement to whatever income was coming into the household. Grandma made sure that Her 8 children ate !! May Allah Be Pleased w Her & Forgive Her sins & Judge Her according to the best of Her deeds.

“O Allah, You know me better than I know myself, and I know myself better than these people who praise me. Make me better than what they think of me, and forgive those sins of mine of which they have no knowledge, and do not hold me responsible for what they say.” -Abu Bakr (ra)

"Right off Fulton & St James. I remember living here in Clinton Hill for about a year. From 97-98. Back when you could easily buy comics in the Black Community. Back when my Physical Bro & I would beg our Ummi for dollars so we could exchange those dollars for quarters & hit the arcade. I also remember being a mischievous child, stealing cookies from this same Key Food. Biggie Smalls used to work @ this Grocery Store as a youth. That is All.

1 : 10 / Some derive Adam from adim , meaning the surface of the earth , in keeping w the Hadith , "Truly God created Adam from a handful taken from the entire earth. The Children of Adam thus correspond to the earth , some being red or black or white , or in between & [ they experience ] ease & sorrow , bad & good". - Study Quran / It is also in order to convey to him that despite his elevated cosmic function he remains 'abd, slave of God, that the verse states that this responsibility has been entrusted to him fī l-ard, 'on earth'. Had he exercised his mandate in heaven he could not have contemplated his 'ubūdiyya. 'In this way,' the author of the Futūhāt points out, 'God has not removed him from his homeland, the earth, of which he was made and which is the place of his indigence in order that he may contemplate his 'ubūdiyya; for the earth is humble by essence. Thus the function of khalīfa does not veil him from his 'ubūdiyya. - Claude Addas / West Central Mecca / shot by @sdq0218 w @bruv.khdr #islam #blackmuslim #quran #tafsir #original #originalman #studentenrollment #blackman #harlem #mecca #westharlem #jawnzy #ibnshbzz #sdq #rulesofislam #elijahmuhammad #nationofislam #supremewisdom #noi #fivepercentnation #suprememath #suprememathematics #supremealphabet

"When a person gets righteous, God accepts him as His FRIEND. Then the will of each other is with each is with each other. What one wills, the other wills. It is the will of both. - The Hon Elijah Muhammad Was The Honorable Elijah Muhammad trying to turn us into saints? In esoteric Islam, waliyya are those who have been annihilated in Allah, meaning their egos have dissolved and all that exist in that individual’s person is Allah. THEM says ” Then the will of each other is with each is with each other. What one wills, the other wills”. Something to think about"

Al-Shams Abd l’Aziz ibn Shabazz-Allah

[thesaidnation]

Aziz  عزيز‎, ʿ The Mighty

The Black man from the root beginning is from a Black Father. Therefore, he should go in the Name of his Black Father. - The Hon Elijah Muhammad, Our Savior has Arrived We are the MIGHTY….- The Hon Elijah Muhammad, Message to the Blackman in America Aziz (Arabic: عزيز‎, ʿAzīz, ) originally a Syriac word, now much more commonly known as an Arabic male name. Aziz in Arabic is derived from the root A-z-z and it means one that is powerful, strong, or respected, and is a cognate of Hebrew Oz meaning might, strength, and power. Al-Aziz is also one of the names of Allah in Islam “Al-‘Aziz” is the Mighty and Forceful, as derived from the Arabic word “’Azza”, which mans “reinforces and makes stronger”. Aziz is a term, which has varied of meanings. It is the adjective of the verb Azz that means strength and protect from humiliation. “Azz” somebody over the other means “favoring” somebody over the other. Something “Azz” for me, mean something became difficult for me to conquer. To “Aazz” means make it strong, firm and dignified. Thus, Aziz is one of the names or characteristics of Allah, the Almighty. It means the conquer who can’t be defeated. It is a name which contains many adjectives and characteristics such as strength, ability and conquers as well as the capability to do everything. The Name ‘Azeez is said to be from three verbal forms: a) ‘azza, ya’izzu (with a kasrah): this form means nobility. When Allah is ‘Azeez in this form, it means One who is Noble, One who is Distinguished, there is none like Him (Laysa ka milthlihi shayy), He is so Dear, Respected because He is Al Malik and Al Maleek (The King and The Owner). b) ‘azza, ya’uzzu (with a dhummah): this form means to prevail, to be dominant. In this form, when Allah is Al ‘Azeez, it means He is Ghaalib (Dominant and Prevailing) and there is no one who could prevail over Him, no one who could dominate or defeat Him, He is unconquerable. The verb ‘azza appears in surah Saad ayah 23, when the two men came to Dawood alayhi salaam to judge between them, one man said: وَعَزَّنِي فِي الْخِطَابِ, he overpowered me in speech. Allah says in the Qur’an that there is no one to conquer Him. c) ‘azza, ya’azzu (with a fathah): this form means to be powerful, to be mighty. He is the One who is Most Powerful, Most Mighty. From this we learn He is Al Shadeed, Al Qawiyy, He is the One who is very Strong, very Firm. Also another meaning of ‘Azeez from this is He is Al Muntani’, (mana’ means to stop) He Stops, He Prevents meaning nothing can go against Him, none can fight Him and push Him back. Allah ta’ala says in Surah Faatir: وَمَا ذَ‌ٰلِكَ عَلَى اللَّهِ بِعَزِيزٍ: it is easy for Allah ta’ala to bring about a new creation. God Means Possessor of Power and Force. - The Hon Elijah Muhammad

Meaning of Islam س ل م‎ S-L-M

If we now sum up our results and try to find what is common for the various words that are formed out of the root [s-l-m], it appears that the common idea is wholeness, entirety, or totality. The words in question express that something is whole, unbroken and undivided and therefore healthy, or peaceful and harmonious…The stress lies on totality, not on submission. Islam derives from the Arabic root Seem (s), Laam (l), Meem (m), which has a basic meaning of “soundness, well-being, wholeness, freedom from evil and defect, ” and the word ‘Muslim’ is an active participle which means that a Muslim is one whose nature is Islam (Allah) or whose character and actions exemplify Islam. Salm (salama in the first and fourth conjugations) means, in the first instance, to be tranquil, at rest, to have done one’s duty, to have paid up, to be at perfect peace, and, finally, to surrender oneself to Him with whom peace is made. The noun derived from it means peace, greeting, safety, salvation. The word does not imply, as is commonly supposed, absolute submission to God’s will, but means, on the contrary, striving after righteousness

Time according to The Hon Elijah Muhammad

There was only one man there and He didn’t have the knowledge of keeping time like we have; He was laying a foundation for you and me to learn how to calculate time. Time is motion, we can’t make time without a motion. Wherever we make a motion it is registering time; this is the way the universe is made. There was no such thing as time before the creation of God or the whole universe, as we call it now. It was not a universe; it was just a darkened, unlimited amount of space. “Let us look at the Theology of Time. What is time? The main thing we should know is what do we mean when we say time. We mean the distance of one point taking us so long and so long to get to other point. We’re counting the time that’s between the two objects. So, it means that we have motion, and motion makes time. We cannot have any reading of time until we set up motion. When we read how long it takes between this motion and that motion to reach each other, we can say it like this for further understanding. If motion is made, we calculate how long that motion takes to meet with another motion or object. If we are going to free you with the time, when did the time start? We cannot count on time unless we know when time began. We don’t want you coming out here saying we’re talking on something, which we don’t know anything about. We know you and if we know you, we know you’re talking about something. Time, when did it start? It started way back, a long ways back. It started when the first motion of an atom moved out of darkness. When that atom moves, it’s still time. That was, according to the teachings of Allah to me, was something around about 76 trillion years ago. If you’re a mathematician, you will tell me what at a trillion years is. I’m not going to fool around here, since you’re a mathematician. I might get tangled up. It was 76 trillion years ago, when these things took place. “What things?” The motion of time. If I move my hand from one point to another, you can see me making some kind of time. I’m making motion. To calculate the motion, which is what I want you to do, I must calculate how long this hand comes from here to the other or go back to its original position. That’s time! As I hold my hand straight up without moving, it’s making no time, in other words, nothing is going on. It’s just a hand being held up. As we all are Original Black people here in North America, we have not been making time ourselves. It’s due to us not knowing how to make time. Time is made from motion, but it’s no time if it’s lost. We don’t want that kind of time. We want time that will produce something. God is a production made by the actions of time. As long as we have no production in the time in what we are making, we have to sit down. Let somebody else come in and make time. We have been sitting down here, now, every since the slave master said, “You are free n!&^.” We sit down and ask him for something to do. When a man has become so dead to the knowledge of the things in which he should be doing, and the knowledge of himself, erased in the time, that man is in bad condition. After a hundred years, up from slavery, we have not made any effort in trying to produce something out of the time that The Divine has given to us. We want to remember these things and put them in your mind to continually keep you calculating on it. If we calculate from the number One, Who is God Himself, then I think that we could get a starting point, and a starting point points out what you need. In the present time, that we are now living in, all over the world and especially in the country of America, it’s time for the dead to wake up. If the dead are to wake up, how are they to wake up? If we have nothing to wake them up with or by, then we should teach someone to wake him up. If you do not have someone to align some kind of instrument to make the dead wake up, I say get after them yourself. Get out there!” “If you said, ” In the beginning, which was about so long and so long….. or it was so long and so long…” don’t say “about,” because it had a beginning. There is nothing before us nor behind us that didn’t have a beginning. We used to say, “Nobody knows,” and that was right, but there was a beginning you see. If God was not before the beginning of what account you have, then who was it before Him? He was the beginning Himself! Listen to it good. The beginning of Time was made by the beginning of God. We had no beginning before He made Himself. We could not calculate on time, because there was no motion making time until after He made Himself. He made a motion, and we’ve been reading Time every since. Understand me good. Let me go back over it. In the beginning, that was when God was making Himself from an atom of life. The motion of the atom was counting time, but we didn’t know how to count it. He, Who was being made didn’t. So, we had to wait until His complete make was complete, and then set up a Time clock for it. His motion of coming out as the atom was making time, but there was no one to calculate it. He couldn’t calculate it Himself, because He had not yet become material enough in His Brains to calculate His own movement.”
