The Servant of Allah Versus Satan

What's your opinion on this article?

For thousands of years, scriptures have foretold of battles between servants of Allah (God) and Satan. The two most prominent figures who battled Satan were Joshua, who stood while Satan tried to oppose him (Zechariah 3:1-2) and Michael who was in a war against the dragon, which was called the Devil and Satan (Revelation 12:7-9). 

These accounts were styled as prophetic events, which would be fulfilled at some point in the future. It is likely that the future is now. The Book of Genesis describes Satan as a snake, while the Book of Revelation describes him as a dragon. 

According to the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad, “[t]hat old serpent, called the devil and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world (Rev. 12:9) is a person or persons whose characteristics are like that of a serpent (snake). Serpents or snakes of the grated type cannot be trusted, for they will strike you when you are not expecting a strike.” (Message to the Blackman, pp. 122-23)

In the prophetic fulfillment of this epic battle, each fighter has their weapon of choice. Their weapons were not made for them; they were made for their weapons.  The servant of Allah (God) fights with truth while the dragon fights with lies.  Thus, the dragon is not a race, it is not a religion, it is not a creed. The dragon is a liar and a deceiver. Whoever engages in lies and deceit in an attempt to turn the people away from the servant of Allah (God) is part-human and part-dragon.

With that said, a battle has been raging for decades between “so-called Jews” and the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan. 

In no particular order, the following rounds have already been fought. 

“Judaism is a gutter religion:” Since 1984, “so-called Jews” have regurgitated the lie that Minister Farrakhan said, “Judaism is a gutter religion.” The problem with this lie is that no one has been able to produce an audio or video recording of Minister Farrakhan making the statement. Words have been taken out of context and other words have been inserted using brackets, which then become the words of the writer and not the words of the speaker. No such recording exists because no such statement was ever made publicly or privately. So, to say Minister Farrakhan made such a statement is a lie from a liar and anyone who repeats that lie is part-dragon.

“Farrakhan is a ‘Black Hitler:’ ”     Nathan Pearlmutter of the Anti-Defamation League of B’nai B’rith (ADL) in 1984 referred to Minister Farrakhan as a “Black Hitler,” which was repeated by Mr. Nat Hentoff, a Jewish leader and then-columnist for the tabloid Village Voice. According to history, Adolph Hitler not only advocated for the extinction of a people, he actively went about trying to achieve it. He established government policies that resulted in the forced sterilization of hundreds of thousands of Jews, without their knowledge and against their will. This was reprehensible, it was devilish, it was a crime against humanity, and it was worthy of the severest punishment available to man, which is death.

Minister Farrakhan has never participated in the forced sterilization of Jews and has never lobbied members of government to institute policies that advocated for the sterilization of Jews. So, to call him a “Black Hitler” is a lie from a liar and anyone who repeats that lie is part-dragon.

Interestingly, for over a decade, between 1993 and 2013, the so-called State of Israel had a government-sanctioned policy of forcibly sterilizing Ethiopian Jews.  These Black Jews, who sought residency in the so-called State of Israel, were given birth control shots named Depo-Provera. The express purpose of the shots was forced sterilization. Thousands of Black women were victims of forcible birth control by the Israeli government for a decade that we know of. That stain will never come out of the corroded fabric of the so-called State of Israel and it will forever mar the sanctimonious expressions of the Israeli government. With every shot, Israelis knew they were extinguishing these Ethiopians’ prospects of reproducing; thus, with every shot, they were doing the bidding of the dragon.

This government-sanctioned Black birth control program fell out of favor in 2013 and a Jewish agency published an article entitled, “Israel Admits Ethiopian Women Were Given Birth Control Shots.” In that article, it reads, “A government official has for the first time acknowledged the practice of injecting women of Ethiopian origin with the long-acting contraceptive Depo-Provera. Health Ministry Director General Prof. Roni Gamzu has instructed the four health maintenance organizations to stop the practice as a matter of course.” Is this not exactly what Hitler did to Jews in the 1930s? It was reprehensible then and it is more reprehensible now. Since people like to throw labels around, catch this. Every person in the so-called State of Israel who authorized, sanctioned and participated in the forced semi-sterilization of Black people is, absolutely, “Anti-Black.” 

No, Mr. Pearlmutter and Mr. Hentoff, the new Hitler is not a Black man living in America. The new Hitler lives in the so-called State of Israel which you pledge your allegiance to.

“Louis Farrakhan: Jews are termites:” In an October 18, 2018, online article, a Jewish publication published an article entitled, “Louis Farrakhan: Jews are termites.” The title of that article would leave any rational person to believe that Minister Farrakhan referred to Jews as termites. The purpose of that headline was to do exactly what it did, which was to deceive anyone who would read it. The reader would likely develop or harden negative sentiments towards Minister Farrakhan, the result of which would likely cause the reader to not listen to anything Minister Farrakhan has to say.

The same author of the article did not put the phrase in quotes because Minister Farrakhan never said that. Here, again, is another occasion when Minister Farrakhan’s words are mangled, misinterpreted, cooked up and altered to fit the purpose of the writer. No audio or video recording, publicly or privately, exists which has Minister Farrakhan making the statement, because no such recording exists. These “so-called Jews” are fabricating a stick, beating themselves with it and then playing the victim all while blaming Minister Farrakhan. The tactic is well-grooved at this point and they are quite proficient at it. In this day, however, the people will not be fooled.

“Anti-Semite:” By definition, a Semite is, “a member of any of various ancient and modern peoples originating in southwestern Asia, including Akkadians, Canaanites, Phoenicians, Hebrews and Arabs.” Since the term “Semite” refers to all these “various ancient and modern peoples,” how did the “so-called Jews” of European descent get the right to call people “anti-Semite” if they deem something to be anti-Jewish? Is this not a blatant attempt to steal the rich history that belongs to “various ancient and modern peoples” including Arabs? Is the goal to influence the minds of people so when they read the rich ancient history of Semitic people that the reader will solely think of the so-called Jew of European descent? If not, then in the words of Minister Farrakhan: “Stop it!”

If these detractors feel they have been wronged, they can make their claim. But it is an unjust statement to label the Minister and Nation of Islam as “anti-Semitic.” Anyone tries to claim the entire history of various Semitic people as solely belonging to the “so-called Jews” of European descent who live in the so-called State of Israel is part-dragon.

Why does this article refer to some Jews as “so-called Jews?” Well, a Jew is one who subscribes to the beliefs and precepts established in the Torah by the Prophet Moses. To be clear, there are many people who refer to themselves as Jews of European descent who strive mightily to live up to the high moral standards codified in the Torah. They are good people and they can be found all over the planet. They would not qualify as a “so-called Jew.”

The “so-called Jew” is anyone who claims to be a Jew and acts contrary to the beliefs and precepts established in the Torah by the Prophet Moses. For example, Moses brought the Children of Israel the Ten Commandments directly from the Lord. One of the Ten Commandments was “Thou shalt not kill.” Well, every person who authorized, sanctioned, or participated in the forced birth control of thousands of Black women in the so-called State of Israel engaged in killing the womb that was made by Allah (God) to bring forth new life. Such evil people are not Jews; they are “so-called Jews.”

Another precept of the Ten Commandments is “Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.” So, every person who claims to be Jewish who created, repeated and, or promoted the above-mentioned lies about Minister Farrakhan is not a Jew, but is a “so-called Jew.”  

According to the scriptures, Satan could not overcome Joshua and he lost in his war against Michael. The likely fulfillment of this prophecy is occurring before our very eyes as the servant of Allah (God), Minister Farrakhan, continues to stand against the lies of the “so-called Jews.” All praise is due to Allah!
