- It's Black History Month, and here at Masjid UI Haqq, we're recognizing Black history through an Islamic lens. Featuring guest speaker Imam Abu Muslimah, join us on Friday, Feb. 16th 6pm-7pm for an enriching dialogue and Islamic discussion here at the masjid at this free community event!
Masha’Allah….very enlightened
MashaAllah. This talk is a refutation on the liars and haters ( due to personal reasons ) who said and continue to say this brother pushes a 'Superiority of the Black Man' dawah as opposed to calling to the Quran and Sunnah upon the understanding of the pious scholars of Ahlus Sunnah, who he quoted throughout his talk. And yes, I have been working in Saudi Arabia since 1993 ( the year I met Abu Muslimah, who was the first American from our community to openly call to the salafi dawah and who inspired most of the current graduates of Medinah U, Ummul Qura, Yemen, Egypt) and the Arabs range in shades from caramel to very dark brown, much darker than Abu Muslima. But he hit it on the head. This talk needs several episodes. Love you brother. Abu Ruqayyah.
The 90s was not the start of the call to the way of the Salaf in the USA. You must be from these later generations.
No they are not one race or ethnicity, especially since race is a social construct. Race can not be proven biologically.
AsSalamu alaykum
May Allah bless you for the truthfulness and courageousness to make this statement publicly, especially in light of the who Encouraged people to go study abroad with scholars and people of knowledge, rather than to stick and sit and cling to people in America during the 90’s in E.O.
Not to mention who was firstly responsible and deserves credit for spreading, teaching and calling to Salafiyyah in its true sense in East Orange, New Jersey. Was it Shaykh Abu Muslimah or Shaykh Dawud Adib?
In a series of recent(2024) podcast and CZcams recordings, Shaykh Dawud seeks to be revered acknowledged, and praised for the claim and title of who brought Salafiyyah first to the people. While he express a great injustice for being omitted from its mention.
Dawud states “it is disrespectful and against Islam to not recognize those who may be the cause of contribution to your good and your road to Islam, including WD Muhammad’s effort to bring the from the nation Islam to orthodox Islam in 1975.”
While he himself Dawud and those with him or like him omit Abu Muslimah’s contributions and legacy from the archives of being mentioned because they say he is a hizbee.
They are considered to be both from My shuyukh and I speak the truth concerning them both and fairness and truthfulness. Allah bless us all for our good and forgive us all for our shortcomings and make us truthful! Ameen

I don’t think this comment was towards my comment, but I don’t think anyone should be concerned about being honored and mentioned for their Dawah efforts, especially past efforts. What we die upon is of most importance. I take offense for the sake of Allaah, mentioning men such as WDM and his Dawah as anything other than misguided. It’s more disrespectful to mention the word honorable before the name Elijah Pool. Say, “ The Nation of Mislam.” Did the Prophet peace and blessings upon him show reverence or honor for Abu Talib?
When I first learned this information, it disgusted me how deceptive and dishonest many “Muslims” have been concerning history.
Honestly, a lot of people are just ignorant. I wouldn’t say deceptive. I didn’t find out until my 20’s that prophet Musa (Moses) was described as a black man. Truthfully I didn’t know what color any of the prophets were and a lot of it is because it’s not taught or emphasized.
@@elephantintheroom8561 They purposefully don’t tell you these things. They don’t tell you Ali Ibn Abu Talib is described just as dark as Moses and Bilal. Also the prophet saw had braids and Abu Bakr had matted dreads. It’s not ignorance, it’s arrogance. The Persians and Turks likened the prophets to themselves just like the Romans and Europeans. All of them lying against Allah and his messengers.
The question was “ who is running Islam in black America.” It was not who’s calling to Allaah in black America.
The racism of the Arabs is not about color it’s about lineage. The Deen is not racist, this is known, but some of the people have racism with them. The Arabs like many cultures have colorism with them also. This they perpetuate even against each other.
What is the claim being made here? Is it that Islam does not have racism in it ? Or that Muslims don’t have racism with them?
There are original Arabs and there are Arabized Arabs. Even the Prophet peace and blessings be upon him is from the Arabized Arab lineage.
Pink or white?
AsSalaamuAlaikum,
How can you give a discussion about the black man and not even one black. Is it Islam or is it him who is seen as erasing their experiences and contributions. A more inclusive approach would be to acknowledge and discuss the experiences of leaders and members of the black community. Let the Arabs tell their own history. And Allah knows best.
Cheikh Oumar Foutiyou Tall, Shaykh al-Islām (Ibrahima Niass), Cheikh Ahmadou Bamba… it’s just few of them… but the most prominent …
People dont get what this brother is saying! He is trying to tell you in no uncertain terms that the original Arabs were BLACK! That is a major issue with so many Muslims and the brother should be given credit for it.
What I meant to say is he did not mention one black man in Black History Month. In Black History Month the black history is our history period . It is not referring to Australian, Aborigines, Indians, Ethiopian, Sudanese, Somalia, Kenyans, Arabs, or any other group you named. Nor are we mention in their history. We should have took our dear brother to the Black in Wax Museum and we could have gave him the proper perspective. In our case we didn't have Muslim history and non-Muslim history. We all caught the same hell together. No need to sanitize it.
Do you not know that the disbelievers are najas (impure)? Why would we commingle them with righteous people just because they have same skin color? Disbelievers are caught in this hell as a punishment and the believers are caught in the hell to rise our rank in jannah. We are not the same. Why would muslims mention people who are going to be burnt alive for eternity?
There's a class in public education called reading and comprehension. YOU MISSED IT ENTIRELY or either slept through it.
