“Say: My Lord, if Thou show me that which they are promised—My Lord, then place me not with the unjust people. And surely We are well Able to show thee what We promise them. Repel evil with that which is best. We know best what they describe. And say: My Lord, I seek refuge in Thee from the evil suggestions of the devils, And I seek refuge in Thee, my Lord, lest they come to me.” —Holy Qur’an, Surah 23:93-98

Within two days of my return from Mongolia to the United States in the summer of 2006, I prepared to join the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan to visit the Navajo Nation at Window Rock, Arizona. During that journey, I shared my experiences in Mongolia with Brother Minister Farrakhan and his wife, Mother Khadijah, which detailed many intriguing events. Surprisingly, acknowledgement was made by the President of the World Academy of Genghis Khan which introduced one of my compositional works in a ceremony dedicated to the “Return of Genghis Khan.” This Ceremony offered 29 gifts that were made for that event which occurred on August 19, 2005 on the outskirts of Ulanbataar, the capital of present day Mongolia.

According to Mr. Perev Davaanyam, my musical compositional work “Cosmic Visions” contained the scales of cosmic mathematical proportions which coincided to the order of Genghis Khan’s philosophy, practiced by Kublai Khan and his successors. This period corresponds to nearly 800 years ago, circa 1241 A.D., when this secret history was revealed after the death of Genghis Khan in 1227 A.D.

My musical compositional work not only contained these mathematical scales in music but the composition name “Cosmic Visions” matched the same title of the composer who offered this musical work as one the 29 gifts dedicated to the Return of Genghis Khan. From that time forward, Secret History of the Mongols is purported to have transmitted secretly from Father to son through the descendents of the “Golden Family.” When we arrived at the Navajo Nation at Window Rock, and were introduced to Chairman Joe Shirley and his wife and other dignitaries, I learned directly from the appointed Navajo Princess attending this opening reception that the Navajo Nation traced their lineage to Mongolia. This was the first time that the cultural links of Native American ancestry was related to Mongolia and acknowledged in my presence. This answered in part my own search to understand why I was shown the Mongolia vision pertaining to my own heritage and link to Kublai Khan.

This vision was revealed to me in 1984 while on a journey to Africa, specifically Egypt and Ethiopia. A small group of teachers and students involved in the study of our ancient history with a metaphysical orientation were invited under the direction of our education tour guide, the late Marva Mohr, who was also an attorney practicing law in the state of California at San Diego. To conduct her research she had established the institute of “African Mysticism.” Accompanying me on this journey was my youngest son, Ahmad Muhammad, Mother Khadijah Farrakhan, wife of the Honorable Louis Farrakhan, Sister Shirley Muhammad from Boston, Massachusetts, along with many others. While in Ethiopia’s capital of Addis Ababa, our group formed a morning meditation just outside of the city.

With the imagery of a seed planted in the soil, I became the roots growing the trunk of a tree with its branches spreading and blossoming into foliage when suddenly I was carried in spirit from my location in Ethiopia to Mexico’s Sacred Valley in Tepoztlán. This was the exact spot when one year later in 1985 the Honorable Minister Farrakhan had his vision-like experience on the Mother’s Wheel where he communed directly with the Honorable Elijah Muhammad.

From there, I was transported to the higher mountain range which I recognized was somewhere in the Himalayas near Tibet. It was there where I encountered a gentleman dressed in oriental garb who pointed to me and spoke to me these words: “You are related to the Kublai Khan.” This information was so startling that it changed my disposition of study to embrace the whole of Asia outside of the area of the Middle East. Since that time I have been involved in extensive research that has carried me to various parts of Asia and the Caucasus Mountains, which includes the Steppes of Central Asia or Eurasia. This was fulfilling a part of my search for knowledge being guided by the Honorable Elijah Muhammad and his Wise Teacher, W. Fard Muhammad.

Surah 17 of the Holy Qur’an titled: “Bani Israel: The Israelites,” refers to the destruction of Baghdad and other peoples who occupy this vast stretch of territory that was dominated by the Mongols. This period also corresponds to the time of the Crusades and the Vatican’s drive to control the Holy Land from its capital in Rome. What prophetic picture do we see in this history that connects us to this present time? Are we facing the fulfillment of some of this ancient history in the present hour of the doom and fall of mighty kingdoms in the West? Are we in a timeline of history that will ultimately unite East and West as one?

According to the Divine Teachings of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, our whole earth was united in one continental mass called Asia from whence is derived the term “Asiatic Blacks” or identifying our Black people now scattered in the Americas since the Diaspora. We are gradually uniting once again family to family, tribe to tribe, and are awakening to the Mighty Message of Self Knowledge directed by the Knowledge of God which is uniting the hearts of the whole of humanity. We are the modern day fulfillment of all former prophesies referring to nations and peoples around the world with the Ultimate Triumph of the Nation of Islam on the Western horizon of the world.

We are currently on our third Mxodus Tour in Mexico, having made lasting friendships with our Indigenous people in Mexico, Central America and South America who have been scattered for centuries separating one from another.

“Until when death overtakes one of them, he says: My Lord, send me back, That I may do good in that which I have left. By no means! It is but a word that he speaks. And before them is a barrier, until the day they are raised.” —Holy Qur’an, Surah 23:99-100
