ace by nature is against black man leadership, regardless whether
spiritual or political (emphasis mine – WM). 6
This is an important quote: <strong>THEM</strong> clearly distinguishes the
Prophet Muhammad, who was a member of the Black
Nation, from the white race. Further, <strong>THEM</strong> attributes the
white race’s false charges against the Prophet to their innate
inability to follow ‘black man leadership.’ By clear
implication the Prophet Muhammad is thus referred to as a
‘black man.’ That the Prophet, as an Arab, was a member
of the Black Nation and distinct from the white race is a
point <strong>THEM</strong> made frequently. In at least 3 other writings
<strong>THEM</strong> says:
Muhammad, an Arab, was a member of the black nation. The
Jews and Christians are of the white race, and they don’t believe
in Muhammad as a prophet of God…The Arabs or Muslims
have tried and are still trying to get the white race to believe and
recognize Muhammad as a Divine Prophet of Allah, and the
Qur’an, a Divine Revelation, as they recognize Musa (Moses)
and Isa (Jesus) and the Bible coming from Allah (God). 7
Again, because the white race (Jews and Christians) can’t
accept ‘black man leadership,’ they reject the black Arab
Muhammad as a prophet of God. Muhammad, like Jesus
