Can the Woman Build Human Potential

This is a guest blog by a Sister Believer whom I absolutely admire and consider a very good friend. The Believer's are friends of one another, if you didn't know :). In any event, She's a Sis that I never have a problem pointing to when asked about the future of the Nation, and the future of Allah's chosen People. ENJOY ! ! !

A guest Blog By Sister Khadijah Mahasin Baha Muhammad...

With the woman being the direct descendant of All Mighty God Allah, in her ability to create as God creates is her ability to build Human Potential….. With that being said, this article is dedicated to our very own Sister Student National M.G.T. & G.C.C. Captain Sandy Muhammad.

Sister Captain Sandy, in her brilliance, has given the Women of the Nation of Islam the chance to come to Allah (God) with the Mind of God. In my eyes, she is the Mercy given to us from God and has begun to, as our lessons teach us, “lay the Pressure Upon their (the MGT) Minds of their many errors in the Past and Present, that they may see the Light and Walk therein.”

For myself personally, she has made me mindful of who I am and who’s I am and in her reminder, the feeling of aversion does not enter into my heart and the choice of straying away is not an option. What she has done is placed myself along with a Nation of Women on the path of righteousness….




In that Mercy, is the act of devotion that every nation is appointed with. We can only follow one, if we are wise women, with the knowledge to take this world from a world ruled by Satan to a world where there is only room for the righteous. Not to agree with the movement of this Nation is not to agree with God’s Plan. Our lessons teach us that Master Fard Muhammad can sit on top of the world and tell everyone that the Most beautiful Nation is in the wilderness of North America. In order for him to fulfill his prophecy with the black woman, we MUST allow our wonderful sister to bring that treasure buried under the sands of the desert to the top.

In the Maulana Muhammad Ali translation of the Holy Qur’an Surah 36:48, the question is asked, “When will this promise come to pass, if you are truthful? This promise will come to pass as long as we stay on the path Allah (God) is leading Sister Student Captain on. We are also taught in the Holy Qur’an that the opponents of truth are punished. On the day when man is judged will not be the time to ask to be averted from the fire you lit for yourselves because you are not following the path of righteousness. Footnote 2603 tells us that the light of truth would shine forth, but not without a grave misfortune to those who refuse to go forward, and this is a warning…. Need I say more?

Women were in need of spiritual and moral direction. Now that we have that direction, what will we do with it? We have been given the knowledge and wisdom to attain perfection, but what are we going to do with it?

The only way this can happen is for us to know our self worth and see that Allah did not leave us without yet another leader. He has left us with His Spiritual daughter, a Mary that will herself, Insha’Allah, along with the rest of the Women of God be the ones to give birth in the future to the Jesus, the Moses, the Muhammad’s, and other Prophets of the Bible and Holy Qur’an. We are able to now be the Women of Amran. She is guiding us with the prayer of Mary’s mother while Mary was in her womb and showing us the importance of staying under the charge of Zacharia, (The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan) and never again be women led astray by this worlds life, because through us, the old world order will be null and void.

In that pressure, stress is laid upon the Believers to no longer be comfortable with foolishness but to receive the Mercy that Allah has given us in Sister Captain Sandy. In her comes the first step to getting this nation back on the track only we as women can provide to our Nation. We are taught that a nation can rise no higher than the woman so we have to lay the foundation for the proper environment in order for Spiritual Development of God’s Nation to take place. That first step is Correction and the proper environment is the mind the gives birth to every man and woman in existence.

Sister Sandy is a reflection of God and is breathing the Spirit that God has filled her with into a nation of women that we may rise to eminence and never again look, speak, walk, act, weigh, or produce other than ourselves. In the church, they sing a song in the choir that says, “the Spirit of God is upon us” and if we desire to reflect that spirit in our everyday lives, we must begin to “see the Light and Walk therein.”

Allah, we are taught in the Holy Qur’an, gives true guidance to whom He pleases, and I am blessed to know that there is a sister among us that was given that guidance, and has shared it. The Holy Qur’an footnote 1610 says, “the man (or in this case the woman) who shuts his eyes to the Reminder leads a straitened life because he does not receive spiritual blessings. It is only a contended mind that brings ease and comfort to man, and contentment comes only through faith in God.” When we hear the words of our beautiful sister, who speaks with the Authority and Love, the Love of God comes through her voice and purifies the hearts of the ones listening. I am so blessed that I am a member of the Nation of Islam. I feel so worthy.

That is what is happening to the MGT & GCC class. Sister Sandy is grafting the Minds of the Women of God back into our original state which is righteous women that are direct descendants of All Mighty God Allah so that we may fulfill His prophecy which is to produce the New World Order. It has to come and can only come through the Woman if she has the Mind of God.

To my conclusion, the Holy Qur’an speaks of dead earth being raised to life. Praise be to Allah for her vision because without a vision a people shall perish and the MGT as a whole were beginning to perish… In the Holy Qur’an, in footnote 2110, it tells us what a good woman is. If we are striving to have a pure and unsoiled character, then it is time to see the Light and Walk therein…. The blessing Sister Student National Captain Sandy has given us is not only for sisters, but we are the ones it has been presented to at this time. We are the Mothers of Civilization, so if we are not civilized we are savages. That is NOT what Allah (God) intended for His women to be… We all want to be purified, be it from water or fire, the flesh will be rid of uncleanliness. So let us be mindful that the ones before us paid a price, the ones in our presence are paying a price, and the ones that will come after us will have to pay a price for all that we say we believe. If that price means the Gardens where I am able to walk therein, then the Spiritual Advancement I receive by following Sister Sandy is the reward I shall receive.
.
Surah 3:30 says as I close, “Say if you love Allah, follow me: Allah will love you, and grant you protection from your sins. And Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.

Being worthy enough to live among such a righteous example for the Women of God is indeed a blessing…..

May the peace and blessings of Allah be upon the women and men of the Nation of Islam.

Put on the New Man! My notes from Today's Lecture

"I thank him for his wise choice of THEM to be our messenger messiah. I thank THEM for diligently preparing me"

"one of the greatest laborers conference in the history of the Nation of Islam

In America "we are fairly free to practice what we believe"

"God in his infinite wisdom comes to a people who are no people"

What better place 4 God to start.To produce a product 4rm nothing.like he created the universe he'll do it again 4rm nothin



Wouldn't they be turned on, if they found a NEW human being?

His vision is absolutely prophesied. There's no stopping it

• He wants to make a nation of God'

"Big fields await the wide awake man. A half sleep man cannot help today"

"Knowledge is an ever-evolving process

"nothing is more important than the spiritual reality of the human being"

We are all born under the number 6-incompletion/dissatisfaction

All good cones from the mind of some human being

As long as you keep people out of cause, they will always be the effect of those who create cause

None of it works. It doesn't produce peace...so we gotta make a new man..a new mind

The death the bible is referring to is the death of the spirit that masters the flesh

The education of this world is a failure because it has not produced the man that God desires

"We have to look for that work that makes men and women NEW"

We talk Christ like the grocery stores talk apples n oranges.we can't use good peoples name to shield unproductive practice
"There's always more to know

"There is no ceiling for man and woman"

Once God enters your life he's asking do you want to be me!?

You don't know how happy I am to see people being made new.

I can't worship my fellow man. Thee alone do we worship and thine aid do we seek

Not surrender to a man…surrender to a principle, a new idea!

The moment we accept praise for what God has done, we start to lose it

All common ideas die!

The hereafter is unlimited progress...steadily marching upward

Look at the word all.. And look at the word ALLah

Yourself is great; but did you create yourself?#

To grow from where we are to where God wants us to be takes patience

All seeds don't germinate at the same rate of speed.

"God is not a sexist.. So you're God too

"Men have been crushed in this world

"How can you beat him down and love him at the same time"

We have to be careful of each others mind

"the husband you have is sufficient"

We have to be careful of how we love each other"

Get back to how to eat to live

Manage yourself!!!

Opposites Attract: The Beauty of Modesty in an Immodest Society

In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
In this society, there is none who suffers more from degredation, belittlement, the lack of self-value, and the perceived lack of value than WOMEN. Yet, Women are the MOST important people in ANY society. From the womb of woman, New societies are birthed or old societies are continued. Therefore, Women have an immeasurable value in the sight of God! Jesus, came from the womb of a woman. The woman is the tool that Almighty God uses to bring into existence PERFECTION. YES, WOMAN. YES, YOU! And it is in this light, that I, Salih Muhammad, felt the need to have a guest blog by a Woman. This blog is intended to inspire any who read. Enjoy!

A guest Blog By Sister Akilah Muhammad...


“A Muslim woman attracts without attracting indecent attention. She is admired for her dignity, honor, cleanliness and righteousness”- The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad.

“I put on righteousness, and it clothed me: my judgment was a robe and a diadem.” Job 29:14

The law of electromagnetism states that Electric charges attract or repel one another with a force inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them: unlike charges attract, like ones repel. Magnetic poles (or states of polarization at individual points) attract or repel one another in a similar way and always come in pairs: every north pole is yoked to a south pole.

Webster defines Beauty as “1: the quality or aggregate of qualities in a person or thing that gives pleasure to the senses or pleasurably exalts the mind or spirit. 3: a particularly graceful, ornamental, or excellent quality. 4: a brilliant, extreme, or egregious example or instance.”

Modesty is defined as “1a: Placing a moderate estimate on one’s abilities or worth. 1b: neither bold nor self-assertive: tending toward diffidence. 2: arising from or characteristic of a modest nature 3: observing the proprieties of dress and behavior (decent)”.

Immodest is defined as “not modest: not conforming to the sexual mores of a particular time or place.”
Mores is “the fixed morally binding customs of a particular group; moral attitudes.”

In a world that holds “Barbies” and “Bad Chicks” in high esteem, I tend to stand out amongst my peers wearing a drape scarf as a head covering and a garment in which I consciously make sure covers my entire form. I bear witness to the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad when he says, Islam dignifies the black man and woman “and gives us the desire to be clean internally and externally and for the first time have a sense of dignity.” The beauty of modesty in an immodest society is the REAL love and admiration that is gained for the God within that individual. The gospel duo, Mary Mary, has a song on the radio entitled, “God in Me”, where they describe that the glow people see on their face is manifesting from the God within! The strength that people admire in them is from the God within! The love they exude onto others is from the God within! It is beautiful that this song is in rotation today for “Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain; but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised” Proverbs 31:30.



However, this society, orchestrated by the enemies of Allah (God), would have you to believe through radio, television, film, and corrupt educational systems, that being attractive depends on shallow/surface attributes. If you have the “right” figure, facial features, hair, accessories, clothes (or lack thereof), or God Forbid ALL OF THE ABOVE then you are the definition of beautiful and should put this beauty on display for all the world to see. But who are they to say what’s the “right” ANYTHING?! We cannot allow this world to choose which styles or behaviors are attractive, unless we be tricked; let us not be bamboozled today! When we put our beautiful forms and “assets” on display do we understand that we are actually agitating the lower urges within men? In Minister Ava Muhammad’s book, A New Unit of Measurement, she explains that “Men then use this agitation as an excuse for exploitation, abuse, and plain disrespect.” We must realize and remember that we are Royalty! A Queen is never seen disrobed in public; she is always modest in dress and her behavior is of the most refined. She is the standard, an example of the highest form of civilization and is attractive to all in her presence because of her inner modesty that is reflected on the surface. Once we gain a profound understanding of the value of woman, her womb, and what the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad meant when he said “A Nation Can Rise No Higher Than its Woman” then we will grow to know and understand the mindset of a woman like Mary, the Mother of Jesus. She was a chaste woman of God who all men admire and all women should study.
I will give a testimony to the beauty of modesty in an immodest society. Because I choose to cover myself in a fashionable manner at Howard University and everywhere I go, I receive nothing but respect from all who I encounter. I rarely have to open my own door, and I am always complimented on how refreshing it is to see a young lady taking a stand against the trends of today by being my own righteous self. Please do not think I am using this article to boast, I am simply bearing witness to the brilliance of the teachings of the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad in his instructions that women of God should act and dress according to our title.

“So why does it seem like men are more attracted to women who are less modest?” you may ask. I will ask you, “What kind of ‘men’ are they?! Are they ‘men’ at all?” We must realize that it is Gods light and power within modest sisters and brothers as well that act as a magnet and attractive force in such a corrupt and immodest society where the masses are used to being fed filth (mentally, spiritually, and physically) on a daily bases. Have you ever considered that the attraction that you perceive is actually just a lustful desire! In the same book Sister Ava says “Men have no respect or honor for women who display themselves, even if they are sexually aroused by such displays; they withdraw from their role as provider and protector, question whether their children really belong to them, abandon their families, and in doing so create more poor, homeless, vulnerable people for society to take care of.” Is this the type of attraction a Queen seeks? Emphatically no! Let us do opposite of what this world promotes and seek to attain true beauty by submitting ourselves to the Creator of attraction and all things beautiful, Allah (God). Let us be a magnetic force today with the spirit of truth! Let us attract with our minds and spirit and become the standard of modesty for all the world to behold. Let us wrap ourselves in clothe like the gifts we are; for we are Gods greatest treasures. Let us be Gods definition of “Attractive.”
