Bilal bin Rabbah

Bilal bin Rabbah adalah seorang budak yang sangat terkenal dalam sejarah islam karena kisahnya yang sangat menarik mempertahankan akidah Islam. Sebuah kisah yang tidak akan pernah membosankan, walaupun terus diulang-ulang sepanjang zaman. Kekuatan alurnya akan membuat setiap orang tetap penasaran untuk mendengarnya.

Bilal lahir di daerah as-Sarah sekitar 43 tahun sebelum hijrah. Ayahnya bernama Rabah, sedangkan ibunya bernama Hamamah, seorang budak wanita berkulit hitam yang tinggal di Mekah. Karena ibunya itu, sebagian orang memanggil Bilal dengan sebutan ibnus-Sauda' (putra wanita hitam).

Bilal dibesarkan di kota Ummul Qura (Mekah) sebagai seorang budak milik keluarga bani Abduddar. Saat ayah mereka meinggal, Bilal diwariskan kepada Umayyah bin Khalaf, seorang tokoh penting kaum kafir.

Ketika Mekah diterangi cahaya agama baru dan Rasul yang agung Muhammad Sholallahu ‘alaihi wasallam mulai mengumandangkan seruan kalimat tauhid, Bilal adalah termasuk orang-orang pertama yang memeluk Islam. Saat Bilal masuk Islam, di bumi ini hanya ada beberapa orang yang telah mendahuluinya memeluk agama baru itu, seperti Ummul Mu'minin Khadijah binti Khuwailid, Abu Bakar ash-Shiddiq, Ali bin Abu Thalib, 'Ammar bin Yasir bersama ibunya, Sumayyah, Shuhaib ar-Rumi, dan al-Miqdad bin al-Aswad.

Bilal merasakan penganiayaan orang-orang musyrik yang lebih berat dari siapa pun. Berbagai macam kekerasan, siksaan, dan kekejaman mendera tubuhnya. Namun ia, sebagaimana kaum muslimin yang lemah lainnya, tetap sabar menghadapi ujian di jalan Allah itu dengan kesabaran yang jarang sanggup ditunjukkan oleh siapa pun.

Orang-orang Islam seperti Abu Bakar dan Ali bin Abu Thalib masih memiliki keluarga dan suku yang membela mereka. Akan tetapi, orang-orang yang tertindas (mustadh'afun) dari kalangan hamba sahaya dan budak itu, tidak memiliki siapa pun, sehingga orang-orang Quraisy menyiksanya tanpa belas kasihan. Quraisy ingin menjadikan penyiksaan atas mereka sebagai contoh dan pelajaran bagi setiap orang yang ingin mengikuti ajaran Muhammad.

Kaum yang tertindas itu disiksa oleh orang-orang kafir Quraisy yang berhati sangat kejam dan tak mengenal kasih sayang, seperti Abu Jahal yang telah menodai dirinya dengan membunuh Sumayyah. Ia sempat menghina dan mencaci maki, kemudian menghunjamkan tombaknya pada perut Sumayyah hingga menembus punggung... , dan gugurlah syuhada pertama dalam sejarah Islam.

Sementara itu, saudara-saudara seperjuangan Sumayyah, terutama Bilal bin Rabah, terus disiksa oleh Quraisy tanpa henti. Biasanya, apabila matahari tepat di atas ubun-ubun dan padang pasir Mekah berubah menjadi perapian yang begitu menyengat, orang-orang Quraisy itu mulai membuka pakaian orang-orang Islam yang tertindas itu, lalu memakaikan baju besi pada mereka dan membiarkan mereka terbakar oleh sengatan matahari yang terasa semakin terik. Tidak cukup sampai di sana, orang-orang Quraisy itu mencambuk tubuh mereka sambil memaksa mereka mencaci maki Muhammad.

Adakalanya, saat siksaan terasa begitu berat dan kekuatan tubuh orang-orang Islam yang tertindas itu semakin lemah untuk menahannya, mereka mengikuti kemauan orang-orang Quraisy yang menyiksa mereka secara lahir, sementara hatinya tetap pasrah kepada Allah dan Rasul-Nya, kecuali Bilal-semoga Allah meridhainya. Baginya, penderitaan itu masih terasa terlalu ringan jika dibandingkan dengan kecintaannya kepada Allah dan perjuangan di jalan-Nya.

Orang Quraisy yang paling banyak menyiksa Bilal adalah Umayyah bin Khalaf bersama para algojonya. Mereka menghantam punggung telanjang Bilal dengan cambuk, namun Bilal hanya berkata, “Ahad, Ahad ... (Allah Maha Esa).” Mereka menindih dada telanjang Bilal dengan batu besar yang panas, Bilal pun hanya berkata, “Ahad, Ahad ....“ Mereka semakin meningkatkan penyiksaannya, namun Bilal tetap mengatakan, “Ahad, Ahad....”

Mereka memaksa Bilal agar memuji Latta dan 'Uzza, tapi Bilal justru memuji nama Allah dan Rasul-Nya. Mereka terus memaksanya, “Ikutilah yang kami katakan!”
Bilal menjawab, “Lidahku tidak bisa mengatakannya.” Jawaban ini membuat siksaan mereka semakin hebat dan keras.

Apabila merasa lelah dan bosan menyiksa, sang tiran, Umayyah bin Khalaf, mengikat leher Bilal dengan tali yang kasar lalu menyerahkannya kepada sejumlah orang tak berbudi dan anak-anak agar menariknya di jalanan dan menyeretnya di sepanjang Abthah(1) Mekah. Sementara itu, Bilal menikmati siksaan yang diterimanya karena membela ajaran Allah dan Rasul-Nya. Ia terus mengumandangkan pernyataan agungnya, “Ahad..., Ahad..., Ahad..., Ahad....” Ia terus mengulang-ulangnya tanpa merasa bosan dan lelah.

Suatu ketika, Abu Bakar Rodhiallahu ‘anhu mengajukan penawaran kepada Umayyah bin Khalaf untuk membeli Bilal darinya. Umayyah menaikkan harga berlipat ganda. Ia mengira Abu Bakar tidak akan mau membayarnya. Tapi ternyata, Abu Bakar setuju, walaupun harus mengeluarkan sembilan uqiyah emas(2.
Seusai transaksi, Umayyah berkata kepada Abu Bakar, "Sebenarnya, kalau engkau menawar sampai satu uqiyah-pun, maka aku tidak akan ragu untuk menjualnya."

Abu Bakar membalas, "Seandainya engkau memberi tawaran sampai seratus uqiyah-pun, maka aku tidak akan ragu untuk membelinya..."

Ketika Abu Bakar memberi tahu Rasulullah Sholallahu ‘alaihi wasallam bahwa ia telah membeli sekaligus menyelamatkan Bilal dari cengkeraman para penyiksanya, Rasulullah Sholallahu ‘alaihi wasallam berkata kepada Abu Bakar, "Kalau begitu, biarkan aku bersekutu denganmu untuk membayarnya, wahai Abu Bakar."

Ash-Shiddiq Rodhiallahu ‘anhu menjawab, "Aku telah memerdekakannya, wahai Rasulullah."

Setelah Rasulullah Sholallahu ‘alaihi wasallam mengizinkan sahabat-sahabatnya untuk hijrah ke Madinah, mereka segera berhijrah, termasuk Bilal Rodhiallahu ‘anhu.. Setibanya di Madinah, Bilal tinggal satu rumah dengan Abu Bakar dan 'Amir bin Fihr. Malangnya, mereka terkena penyakit demam. Apabila demamnya agak reda, Bilal melantunkan gurindam kerinduan dengan suaranya yang jernih,

Duhai malangnya aku, akankah suatu malam nanti
Aku bermalam di Fakh dikelilingi pohon idzkhir dan jalil
Akankah suatu hari nanti aku minum air Mijannah
Akankah aku melihat lagi pegunungan Syamah dan Thafil

Tidak perlu heran, mengapa Bilal begitu mendambakan Mekah dan perkampungannya; merindukan lembah dan pegunungannya, karena di sanalah ia merasakan nikmatnya iman.... Di sanalah ia menikmati segala bentuk siksaan untuk mendapatkan keridhaan Allah.... Di sanalah ia berhasil melawan nafsu dan godaan setan.

Bilal tinggal di Madinah dengan tenang dan jauh dari jangkauan orang-orang Quraisy yang kerap menyiksanya. Kini, ia mencurahkan segenap perhatiannya untuk menyertai Nabi sekaligus kekasihnya, Muhammad Sholallahu ‘alaihi wasallam.. Bilal selalu mengikuti Rasulullah Sholallahu ‘alaihi wasallam ke mana pun beliau pergi. Selalu bersamanyma saat shalat maupun ketika pergi untuk berjihad. Kebersamaannya dengan Rasulullah Sholallahu ‘alaihi wasallam ibarat bayangan yang tidak pernah lepas dari pemiliknya.

Ketika Rasulullah Sholallahu ‘alaihi wasallam selesai membangun Masjid Nabawi di Madinah dan menetapkan azan, maka Bilal ditunjuk sebagai orang pertama yang mengumandangkan azan (muazin) dalam sejarah Islam.

Biasanya, setelah mengumandangkan azan, Bilal berdiri di depan pintu rumah Rasulullah Sholallahu ‘alaihi wasallam seraya berseru, “Hayya ‘alashsholaati hayya ‘alashsholaati...(Mari melaksanakan shalat, mari meraih keuntungan....)” Lalu, ketika Rasulullah Sholallahu ‘alaihi wasallam keluar dari rumah dan Bilal melihat beliau, Bilal segera melantunkan iqamat.

Suatu ketika, Najasyi, Raja Habasyah, menghadiahkan tiga tombak pendek yang termasuk barang-barang paling istimewa miliknya kepada Rasulullah Sholallahu ‘alaihi wasallam. Rasulullah Sholallahu ‘alaihi wasallam mengambil satu tombak, sementara sisanya diberikan kepada Ali bin Abu Thalib dan Umar ibnul Khaththab, tapi tidak lama kemudian, beliau memberikan tombak itu kepada Bilal. Sejak saat itu, selama Nabi hidup, Bilal selalu membawa tombak pendek itu ke mana-mana. Ia membawanya dalam kesempatan dua shalat id (Idul Fitri dan Idul Adha), dan shalat istisqa' (mohon turun hujan), dan menancapkannya di hadapan beliau saat melakukan shalat di luar masjid.

Bilal menyertai Nabi Sholallahu ‘alaihi wasallam dalam Perang Badar. Ia menyaksikan dengan mata kepalanya sendiri bagaimana Allah memenuhi janji-Nya dan menolong tentara-Nya. Ia juga melihat langsung tewasnya para pembesar Quraisy yang pernah menyiksanya dengan hebat. Ia melihat Abu Jahal dan Umayyah bin Khalaf tersungkur berkalang tanah ditembus pedang kaum muslimin dan darahnya mengalir deras karena tusukan tombak orang-orang yang mereka siksa dahulu.

Ketika Rasulullah Sholallahu ‘alaihi wasallam menaklukkan kota Mekah, beliau berjalan di depan pasukan hijaunya bersama 'sang pengumandang panggilan langit', Bilal bin Rabah. Saat masuk ke Ka'bah, beliau hanya ditemani oleh tiga orang, yaitu Utsman bin Thalhah, pembawa kunci Ka'bah, Usamah bin Zaid, yang dikenal sebagai kekasih Rasulullah Sholallahu ‘alaihi wasallam dan putra dari kekasihnya, dan Bilal bin Rabah, Muazin Rasulullah Shalallahu ‘alaihi wasallam..

Shalat Zhuhur tiba. Ribuan orang berkumpul di sekitar Rasulullah Sholallahu ‘alaihi wasallam, termasuk orang-orang Quraisy yang baru masuk Islam saat itu, baik dengan suka hati maupun terpaksa. Semuanya menyaksikan pemandangan yang agung itu. Pada saat-saat yang sangat bersejarah itu, Rasulullah Shalallahu ‘alaihi wasallam memanggil Bilal bin Rabah agar naik ke atap Ka'bah untuk mengumandangkan kalimat tauhid dari sana. Bilal melaksanakan perintah Rasul Sholallahu ‘alaihi wasallam dengan senang hati, lalu mengumandangkan azan dengan suaranya yang bersih dan jelas.

Ribuan pasang mata memandang ke arahnya dan ribuan lidah mengikuti kalimat azan yang dikumandangkannya. Tetapi di sisi lain, orang-orang yang tidak beriman dengan sepenuh hatinya, tak kuasa memendam hasad di dalam dada. Mereka merasa kedengkian telah merobek-robek hati mereka.

Saat azan yang dikumandangkan Bilal sampai pada kalimat, “Asyhadu anna muhammadan rosuulullaahi (Aku bersaksi bahwa Muhammad adalah utusan Allah)”. Juwairiyah binti Abu Jahal bergumam, "Sungguh, Allah telah mengangkat kedudukanmu.... Memang, kami tetap akan shalat, tapi demi Allah, kami tidak menyukai orang yang telah membunuh orang-orang yang kami sayangi." Maksudnya, adalah ayahnya yang tewas dalam Perang Badar.

Khalid bin Usaid berkata, "Aku bersyukur kepada Allah yang telah memuliakan ayahku dengan tidak menyaksikan peristiwa hari ini." Kebetulan ayahnya meninggal sehari sebelum Rasulullah Shalallahu ‘alaihi wasallam masuk ke kota Mekah..

Sementara al-Harits bin Hisyam berkata, "Sungguh malang nasibku, mengapa aku tidak mati saja sebelum melihat Bilal naik ke atas Ka'bah."

Al-Hakam bin Abu al-'Ash berkata, "Demi Allah, ini musibah yang sangat besar. Seorang budak bani Jumah bersuara di atas bangunan ini (Ka'bah)."

Sementara Abu Sufyan yang berada dekat mereka hanya berkata, "Aku tidak mengatakan apa pun, karena kalau aku membuat pernyataan, walau hanya satu kalimat, maka pasti akan sampai kepada Muhammad bin Abdullah."

Bilal menjadi muazin tetap selama Rasulullah Sholallahu ‘alaihi wasallam hidup. Selama itu pula, Rasulullah Shalallahu ‘alaihi wasallam sangat menyukai suara yang saat disiksa dengan siksaan yang begitu berat di masa lalu, ia melantunkan kata, "Ahad..., Ahad... (Allah Maha Esa)."

Sesaat setelah Rasulullah Sholallahu ‘alaihi wasallam mengembuskan napas terakhir, waktu shalat tiba. Bilal berdiri untuk mengumandangkan azan, sementara jasad Rasulullah Shalallahu ‘alaihi wasallam masih terbungkus kain kafan dan belum dikebumikan. Saat Bilal sampai pada kalimat, “Asyhadu anna muhammadan rosuulullaahi (Aku bersaksi bahwa Muhammad adalah utusan Allah)”, tiba-tiba suaranya terhenti. Ia tidak sanggup mengangkat suaranya lagi. Kaum muslimin yang hadir di sana tak kuasa menahan tangis, maka meledaklah suara isak tangis yang membuat suasana semakin mengharu biru.

Sejak kepergian Rasulullah Sholallahu ‘alaihi wasallam, Bilal hanya sanggup mengumandangkan azan selama tiga hari. Setiap sampai kepada kalimat, “Asyhadu anna muhammadan rosuulullaahi (Aku bersaksi bahwa Muhammad adalah utusan Allah)”, ia langsung menangis tersedu-sedu. Begitu pula kaum muslimin yang mendengarnya, larut dalam tangisan pilu.

Karena itu, Bilal memohon kepada Abu Bakar, yang menggantikan posisi Rasulullah Sholallahu ‘alaihi wasallam sebagai pemimpin, agar diperkenankan tidak mengumandangkan azan lagi, karena tidak sanggup melakukannya. Selain itu, Bilal juga meminta izin kepadanya untuk keluar dari kota Madinah dengan alasan berjihad di jalan Allah dan ikut berperang ke wilayah Syam.

Awalnya, ash-Shiddiq merasa ragu untuk mengabulkan permohonan Bilal sekaligus mengizinkannya keluar dari kota Madinah, namun Bilal mendesaknya seraya berkata, "Jika dulu engkau membeliku untuk kepentingan dirimu sendiri, maka engkau berhak menahanku, tapi jika engkau telah memerdekakanku karena Allah, maka biarkanlah aku bebas menuju kepada-Nya."

Abu Bakar menjawab, "Demi Allah, aku benar-benar membelimu untuk Allah, dan aku memerdekakanmu juga karena Allah."

Bilal menyahut, "Kalau begitu, aku tidak akan pernah mengumandangkan azan untuk siapa pun setelah Rasulullah Sholallahu ‘alaihi wasallam wafat."

Abu Bakar menjawab, "Baiklah, aku mengabulkannya." Bilal pergi meninggalkan Madinah bersama pasukan pertama yang dikirim oleh Abu Bakar. Ia tinggal di daerah Darayya yang terletak tidak jauh dari kota Damaskus. Bilal benar-benar tidak mau mengumandangkan azan hingga kedatangan Umar ibnul Khaththab ke wilayah Syam, yang kembali bertemu dengan Bilal Rodhiallahu ‘anhu setelah terpisah cukup lama.

Umar sangat merindukan pertemuan dengan Bilal dan menaruh rasa hormat begitu besar kepadanya, sehingga jika ada yang menyebut-nyebut nama Abu Bakar ash-Shiddiq di depannya, maka Umar segera menimpali,

"Abu Bakar adalah tuan kita dan telah memerdekakan tuan kita (maksudnya Bilal)."
Dalam kesempatan pertemuan tersebut, sejumlah sahabat mendesak Bilal agar mau mengumandangkan azan di hadapan al-Faruq Umar ibnul Khaththab. Ketika suara Bilal yang nyaring itu kembali terdengar mengumandangkan azan, Umar tidak sanggup menahan tangisnya, maka iapun menangis tersedu-sedu, yang kemudian diikuti oleh seluruh sahabat yang hadir hingga janggut mereka basah dengan air mata. Suara Bilal membangkitkan segenap kerinduan mereka kepada masa-masa kehidupan yang dilewati di Madinah bersama Rasulullah Shalallahu ‘alaihi wasallam..

BiIal, "pengumandang seruan langit itu", tetap tinggal di Damaskus hingga wafat. Saat menjelang kematiannya, istri Bilal menunggu di sampingnya dengan setia seraya berkata, "Oh, betapa sedihnya hati ini...."

Tapi, setiap istrinya berkata seperti itu, Bilal membuka matanya dan membalas, "Oh, betapa bahagianya hati ini.... " Lalu, sambil mengembuskan napas terakhirnya, Bilal berkata lirih,
"Esok kita bersua dengan orang-orang terkasih...
Muhammad dan sahabat-sahabatnya
Esok kita bersua dengan orang-orang terkasih...
Muhammad dan sahabat-sahabatnya"

Panglima Romawi dan Khalid bin Walid

Dalam kegemparan terjadinya peperangan Yarmuk, salah seorang panglima Romawi yang bermana George memanggil Khalid bin Walid. Kedua orang panglima itu saling mendekat sampai kedua kepala kuda mereka saling bertemu. Kepada Khalid, George bertanya: "Wahai Khalid, aku meminta kamu berbicara dengan jujur dan jangan berdusta sedikitpun, kerana Tuhan Yang Maha Mulia tidak pernah berdusta, dan jangan pula kamu menipuku, karana sesungguhnya orang yang beriman itu tidak akan berdusta di sisi Allah."

"Tanyalah apa yang ingin engkau tanyakan," kata Khalid.
"Apakah Allah menurunkan kepada Nabi-Nya Muhammad SAW sebuah pedang dari langit kemudian diberikannya kepadamu sehingga jika kamu pakai pedang itu untuk berperang, pasti kamu akan menang?"
"Tidak!" Jawab Khalid.
"Apakah sebabnya kamu digelar dengan Saifullah (Pedang Allah)?" Tanya George.
Khalid menjawab: "Ketika Allah SWT mengutus Nabi Muhammad SAW, seluruh kaumnya sangat memusuhinya termasuk juga aku, aku adalah orang yang paling membencinya. Setelah Allah SWT memberikan hidayah-Nya kepadaku, maka aku pun masuk Islam. Ketika aku masuk Islam Rasulullah SAW menerimaku dan memberi gelaran kepadaku "Saifullah" (pedang Allah)."

"Jadi tujuan kamu berperang ini untuk apa?" Tanya George. "Kami ingin mengajak kamu supaya bersaksi bahwa tidak ada Tuhan melainkan Allah dan Muhammad itu adalah utusan Allah dan kami juga ingin mengajak kamu untuk mempercayai bahwa segala apa yang disampaikan oleh Nabi Muhammad SAW itu adalah benar." Jawab Khalid.

George bertanya: "Apakah hukumannya bila orang itu tidak mahu menerimanya?" Jawab Khalid: "Hukumannya adalah harus membayar jizyah, maka kami tidak akan memeranginya."

"Bagaimana kalau mereka tidak mahu membayar?" Tanya George.
"Kami akan mengumumkan perang kepadanya," kata Khalid bin Walid.
George bertanya: "Bagaimanakah kedudukannya jika orang masuk Islam pada hari ini?"
Khalid menjawab: "Di hadapan Allah SWT, kita akan sama semuanya, baik dia orang yang kuat, orang yang lemah, yang dahulu maupun yang kemudian masuk Islam."
"Apakah orang dahulu masuk Islam kedudukannya akan sama dengan orang yang baru masuk?" Tanya George.
Khalid menjawab: "Orang yang datang kemudian akan lebih tinggi kedudukannya dari orang yang terdahulu, sebab kami yang terlebih dahulu masuk Islam, menerima Islam itu ketika Rasulullah SAW masih hidup dan kami dapat menyaksikan turunnya wahyu kepada baginda. Sedangkan orang yang masuk Islam kemudian tidak menyaksikan apa yang telah kami saksikan. Oleh kerana itu siapa saja yang masuk Islam yang datang terakhir maka dia akan lebih mulia kedudukannya, sebab dia masuk Islam tanpa menyaksikan bukti-bukti yang lebih meyakinkannya terlebih dahulu."

George bertanya: "Apakah yang kamu katakan itu benar?" "Demi Allah, sesungguhnya apa yang aku katakan itu adalah benar,"jawab Khalid.
George berkata: "Kalau begitu aku akan percaya kepada apa yang kamu katakan itu, mulai saat ini aku bertaubat untuk tidak lagi memusuhi Islam dan aku menyatakan diri masuk ke dalam agama Islam, wahai Khalid tolonglah ajarkan aku tentang Islam."

Lalu Khalid bin Walid membawa George ke dalam khemahnya, kemudian menuangkan air ke dalam timba untuk menyuruh George bersuci dan mengerjakan solat dua rakaat.

Ketika Khalid bersama dengan George masuk ke dalam khemah, maka tentara Romawi mengadakan serangan besar-besaran terhadap pertahanan umat Islam. Setelah selesai mengerjakan solat, maka Khalid bin Walid bersama dengan George dan kaum Muslimin lainnya meneruskan peperangan sampai matahari terbenam dan di saat itu kaum Muslimin mengerjakan solat Zohor dan Asar dengan isyarat saja.

Dalam pertempuran itu, George yang telah bergabung dengan barisan kaum Muslimin itu terbunuh, dan dia hanya baru mengerjakan solat dua rakaat bersama dengan Khalid bin Walid. Walaupun demikian, ia telah menyatakan keIslamannya dan berjanji untuk tidak akan kembali lagi kepada agama lamanya. Semoga Allah menempatkan George ke dalam golongan orang-orang yang mati syahid. Amin.

Malcolm X quotes.

Malcolm X quotes. - The quotations are divided into little subcategories. Unless stated otherwise, they are all by Malcolm X (el hajj malik el shabazz).

By Any Means Necessary...

"We declare our right on this earth...to be a human being, to be respected as a human being, to be given the rights of a human being in this society, on this earth, in this day, which we intend to bring into existence by any means necessary."
"Our objective is complete freedom, justice and equality by any means necessary."
"The day that the black man takes an uncompromising step and realizes that he's within his rights, when his own freedom is being jeopardized, to use any means necessary to bring about his freedom or put a halt to that injustice, I don't think he'll be by himself."

Education, Students, the Youth...

"Without education, you're not going anywhere in this world."
"Education is our passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to the people who prepare for it today."
"Look at yourselves. Some of you teenagers, students. How do you think I feel and I belong to a generation ahead of you - how do you think I feel to have to tell you, 'We, my generation, sat around like a knot on a wall while the whole world was fighting for its hum an rights - and you've got to be born into a society where you still have that same fight.' What did we do, who preceded you ? I'll tell you what we did. Nothing. And don't you make the same mistake we made...."
"If you've studied the captives being caught by the American soldiers in South Vietnam, you'll find that these guerrillas are young people. Some of them are just children and some haven't reached their teens. Most are teenagers. It is the teenagers abroad, all over the world, who are actually involving themselves in the struggle to eliminate oppression and exploitation. In the Congo, the refugees point out that many of the Congolese revolutionaries, they shoot all the way down to seven years old - that's been reported in the press. Because the revolutionaries are children, young people. In these countries, the young people are the ones who most quickly identify with the struggle and the necessity to eliminate the evil conditions that exist. And here in this country, it has been my own observation that when you get into a conversation on racism and discrimination and segregation, you will find young people more incensed over it - they feel more filled with an urge to eliminate it."

On Martin Luther King, Jr...

"He got the peace prize, we got the problem.... If I'm following a general, and he's leading me into a battle, and the enemy tends to give him rewards, or awards, I get suspicious of him. Especially if he gets a peace award before the war is over."
"I'll say nothing against him. At one time the whites in the United States called him a racialist, and extremist, and a Communist. Then the Black Muslims came along and the whites thanked the Lord for Martin Luther King."
"Dr. King wants the same thing I want -- freedom!"
"I want Dr. King to know that I didn't come to Selma to make his job difficult. I really did come thinking I could make it easier. If the white people realize what the alternative is, perhaps they will be more willing to hear Dr. King."

Dr. King on Malcolm X:
"You know, right before he was killed he came down to Selma and said some pretty passionate things against me, and that surprised me because after all it was my territory there. But afterwards he took my wife aside, and said he thought he could help me more by attacking me than praising me. He thought it would make it easier for me in the long run."

"The goal has always been the same, with the approaches to it as different as mine and Dr. Martin Luther King's non-violent marching, that dramatizes the brutality and the evil of the white man against defenseless blacks. And in the racial climate of this country today, it is anybody's guess which of the "extremes" in approach to the black man's problems might personally meet a fatal catastrophe first -- "non-violent" Dr. King, or so-called "violent" me."

Violence, Nonviolence, Self-Defense...

"Concerning nonviolence: It is criminal to teach a man not to defend himself, when he is the constant victim of brutal attacks. It is legal and lawful to own a shotgun or a rifle. We believe in obeying the law."
"It doesn't mean that I advocate violence, but at the same time, I am not against using violence in self-defense. I don't call it violence when it's self-defense, I call it intelligence."
"If violence is wrong in America, violence is wrong abroad. If it is wrong to be violent defending black women and black children and black babies and black men, then it is wrong for America to draft us, and make us violent abroad in defense of her. And if it is right for America to draft us, and teach us how to be violent in defense of her, then it is right for you and me to do whatever is necessary to defend our own people right here in this country."
"I don't mean go out and get violent; but at the same time you should never be nonviolent unless you run into some nonviolence. I'm nonviolent with those who are nonviolent with me. But when you drop that violence on me, then you've made me go insane, and I'm not responsible for what I do."
"I don't favor violence. If we could bring about recognition and respect of our people by peaceful means, well and good. Everybody would like to reach his objectives peacefully. But I'm also a realist. The only people in this country who are asked to be nonviolent are black people."
"Last but not least, I must say this concerning the great controversy over rifles and shotguns. The only thing I've ever said is that in areas where the government has proven itself either unwilling or unable to defend the lives and the property of Negroes, it's time for Negroes to defend themselves. Article number two of the Constitutional amendments provides you and me the right to own a rifle or a shotgun. It is constitutionally legal to own a shotgun or a rifle. This doesn't mean you're going to get a rifle and form battalions and go out looking for white folks, although you'd be within your rights - I mean, you'd be justified; but that would be illegal and we don't do anything illegal. If the white man doesn't want the black man buying rifles and shotguns, then let the government do its job. That's all."

The White Man...

"If I have a cup of coffee that is too strong for me because it is too black, I weaken it by pouring cream into it. I integrate it with cream. If I keep pouring enough cream in the coffee, pretty soon the entire flavor of the coffee is changed; the very nature of the coffee is changed. If enough cream is poured in, eventually you don't even know that I had coffee in this cup. This is what happened with the March on Washington. The whites didn't integrate it; they infiltrated it. Whites joined it; they engulfed it; they became so much a part of it, it lost its original flavor. It ceased to be a black march; it ceased to be militant; it ceased to be angry; it ceased to be impatient. In fact, it ceased to be a march."

"But it does make the black people in this country who are jobless and unemployed and standing in the welfare line very much discouraged to see a government that can't solve our problem, can't provide job opportunities for us, and at the some time not only Cubans but Hungarians and every other type of white refugee imaginable can come to this country and get everything this government has to offer."
"I've never seen a sincere white man, not when it comes to helping black people. Usually things like this are done by white people to benefit themselves. The white man's primary interest is not to elevate the thinking of black people, or to waken black people, or white people either. The white man is interested in the black man only to the extent that the black man is of use to him. The white man's interest is to make money, to exploit."
"The common enemy is the white man."

Repayment (or Lack Thereof)...

"An integrated cup of coffee isn't sufficient pay for four hundred years of slave labor."
"How can you thank a man for giving you what's already yours? How then can you thank him for giving you only part of what is yours?"
"I can't turn around without hearing about some 'civil rights advance'! White people seem to think the black man ought to be shouting 'hallelujah'! Four hundred years the white man has had his foot-long knife in the black man's back - and now the white man starts to wiggle the knife out, maybe six inches! The black man's supposed to be grateful? Why, if the white man jerked the knife out, it's still going to leave a scar!"

Freedom, Death, and the Oppressed...

"Power in defense of freedom is greater than power in behalf of tyranny and oppression."
"Truth is on the side of the oppressed."
"You can't separate peace from freedom because no one can be at peace unless he has his freedom."
"You don't have to be a man to fight for freedom. All you have to do is to be an intelligent human being."
"If you're not ready to die for it, put the word 'freedom' out of your vocabulary."
"The price of freedom is death."
"Respect me, or put me to death."
"When a person places the proper value on freedom, there is nothing under the sun that he will not do to acquire that freedom. Whenever you hear a man saying he wants freedom, but in the next breath he is going to tell you what he won't do to get it, or what he doesn't believe in doing in order to get it, he doesn't believe in freedom. A man who believes in freedom will do anything under the sun to acquire...or preserve his freedom."

I Am Not a Racist...

"I am not a racist. I am against every form of racism and segregation, every form of discrimination. I believe in human beings, and that all human beings should be respected as such, regardless of their color."
"I am not a racist.... In the past I permitted myself to be used...to make sweeping indictments of all white people, the entire white race and these generalizations have caused injuries to some whites who perhaps did not deserve to be hurt. Because of the spiritual enlightenment which I was blessed to receive as a result of my recent pilgrimage to the Holy city of Mecca, I no longer subscribe to sweeping indictments of any one race. I am now striving to live the life of a true...Muslim. I must repeat that I am not a racist nor do I subscribe to the tenants of racism. I can state in all sincerity that I wish nothing but freedom, justice and equality, life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for all people."
"I am not a racist in any form whatsoever. I don't believe in any form of discrimination or segregation."

Unity, Brotherhood, Objectives...

"It is a time for martyrs now, and if I am to be one, it will be for the cause of brotherhood. That's the only thing that can save this country."
"Our people have made the mistake of confusing the methods with the objectives. As long as we agree on objectives, we should never fall out with each other just because we believe in different methods, or tactics, or strategy. We have to keep in mind at all times that we are not fighting for separation. We are fighting for recognition as free humans in this society."
"The only way we'll get freedom for ourselves is to identify ourselves with every oppressed people in the world. We are blood brothers to the people of Brazil, Venezuela, Haiti... Cuba - yes Cuba too."
"When you go to a church and you see the pastor of that church with a philosophy and a program that's designed to bring black people together and elevate black people, join that church! If you see where the NAACP is preaching and practising that which is designed to make black nationalism materialize, join the NAACP. Join any kind of organization--civic, religious, fraternal, political or otherwise--that's based on lifting... the black man up and making him master of his own community."
"I believe in the brotherhood of man, all men, but I don't believe in brotherhood with anybody who doesn't want brotherhood with me. I believe in treating people right, but I'm not going to waste my time trying to treat somebody right who doesn't know how to return the treatment."
"We black men have a hard enough time in our own struggle for justice, and already have enough enemies as it is, to make the drastic mistake of attacking each other and adding more weight to an already unbearable load."
"There can be no black-white unity until there is first some black unity.... We cannot think of uniting with others, until after we have first united among ourselves. We cannot think of being acceptable to others until we have first proven acceptable to ourselves."

Revolution...

"Who ever heard of angry revolutionists all harmonizing 'We shall overcome ... Suum Day...' while tripping and swaying along arm-in-arm with the very people they were supposed to be angrily revolting against ? Who ever heard of angry revolutionists swinging their bare feet together with their oppressor in lily-pad park pools, with gospels and guitars and 'I have a dream' speeches? And the black masses in America were--and still are--having a nightmare."
"The white man knows what a revolution is. He knows that the Black Revolution is worldwide in scope and in nature. The Black Revolution is sweeping Asia, is sweeping Africa, is rearing its head in Latin America. The Cuban Revolution - that's a revolution. They overturned the system. Revolution is in Asia, revolution is in Africa, and the white man is screaming because he sees revolution in Latin America. How do you think he'll react to you when you learn what a real revolution is?"
"It is incorrect to classify the revolt of the Negro as simply a radical conflict of black against white or as a purely American problem. Rather, we are today seeing a global rebellion of the oppressed against the oppressor, the exploited against the exploiter."
"The same rebellion, the same impatience, the same anger that exists in the hearts of the dark people in Africa and Asia is existing in the hearts and minds of 20 million black people in this country who have been just as thoroughly colonized as the people in Africa and Asia."
"Usually when people are sad, they don't do anything. They just cry over their condition. But when they get angry, they bring about a change."
"I for one believe that if you give people a thorough understanding of what confronts them and the basic causes that produce it, they'll create their own program, and when the people create a program, you get action."

Africans in America...

"I'm not going to sit at your table and watch you eat, with nothing on my plate, and call myself a diner. Sitting at the table doesn't make you a diner, unless you eat some of what's on that plate. Being here in America doesn't make you an American.... No I'm not an American, I'm one of the 22 million black people who are the victims of Americanism. One of the 22 million black people who are the victims of democracy, nothing but disguised hypocrisy.... I'm speaking as a victim of this American system. And I see America through the eyes of a victim. I don't see any American dream; I see an American nightmare."
"We're not Americans, we're Africans who happen to be in America. We were kidnapped and brought here against our will from Africa. We didn't land on Plymouth Rock - that rock landed on us."
"One of the things that made the Black Muslim movement grow was its emphasis upon things African. This was the secret to the growth of the Black Muslim movement. African blood, African origin, African culture, African ties. And you'd be surprised - we discovered that deep within the subconscious of the black man in this country, he is still more African than he is American."
"Twenty-two million African-Americans - that's what we are - Africans who are in America."
"When I'm traveling around the country, I use my real Muslim name, Malik Shabazz. I make my hotel reservations under that name, and I always see the same thing I've just been telling you. I come to the desk and always see that 'here-comes-a-Negro' look. It's kind of a reserved, coldly tolerant cordiality. But when I say 'Malik Shabazz,' their whole attitude changes: they snap to respect. They think I'm an African. People say what's in a name? There's a whole lot in a name. The American black man is seeing the African respected as a human being. The African gets respect because he has an identity and cultural roots. But most of all because the African owns some land. For these reasons he has his human rights recognized, and that makes his civil rights automatic."


Politics and 'isms...
When asked if he would accept outer help from the Communists:

"Let me tell you a little story. It's like being in a wolf's den. The wolf sees someone on the outside who is interested in freeing me from the den. The wolf doesn't like that person on the outside. But I don't care who opens the door and lets me out."

"Then your answer is yes?"

"No, I'm talking about a wolf."

"The zionist argument to justify Israel's present occupation of Arab Palestine has no intelligent or legal basis in history."
"It is impossible for capitalism to survive, primarily because the system of capitalism needs some blood to suck. Capitalism used to be like an eagle, but now it's more like a vulture. It used to be strong enough to go and suck anybody's blood whether they were strong or not. But now it has become more cowardly, like the vulture, and it can only suck the blood of the helpless. As the nations of the world free themselves, the capitalism has less victims, less to suck, and it becomes weaker and weaker. It's only a matter of time in my opinion before it will collapse completely."
"I might point out here that colonialism or imperialism, as the slave system of the West is called, is not something that is just confined to England or France or the United States. The interests in this country are in cahoots with the interests in France and the interests in Britain. It's one huge complex or combine, and it creates what's known not as the American power structure or the French power structure, but an international power structure. This international power structure is used to suppress the masses of dark-skinned people all over the world and exploit them of their natural resources."
"I think that an objective analysis of events that are taking place on this earth today points towards some type of ultimate showdown. You can call it political showdown, or even a showdown between the economic systems that exist on this earth which almost boil down along racial lines. I do believe that there will be a clash between East and West. I believe that there will ultimately be a clash between the oppressed and those that do the oppressing. I believe that there will be a clash between those who want freedom, justice and equality for everyone and those who want to continue the systems of exploitation."
"A new world order is in the making, and it is up to us to prepare ourselves that we may take our rightful place in it."
"A ballot is like a bullet. You don't throw your ballots until you see a target, and if that target is not in reach, keep your ballot in your pocket."
"We, the Black masses, don't want these leaders who seek our support coming to us representing a certain political party. They must come to us today as Black Leaders representing the welfare of Black people. We won't follow any leader today who comes on the basis of political party. Both parties (Democrat and Republican) are controlled by the same people who have abused our rights, and who have deceived us with false promises every time an election rolls around."

Hypocrisy, Delusion, Honesty...

"They don't stand for anything different in South Africa than America stands for. The only difference is over there they preach as well as practice apartheid. America preaches freedom and practices slavery."
"I would like to point something out so that we'll understand each other better. I don't want you to think in the statements I made that I'm being disrespectful towards you as white people. I'm being frank. And I think that my statements will give you a better insight on the mind of a black man than most statements you get from most people who call themselves Negroes, who usually tell you what they want you to hear with the hope...that will make them draw closer to you and create a better possibility of getting from you some of the crumbs that you might let fall from your table. Well, I'm not looking for crumbs so I'm not trying to delude you."
"You're not supposed to be so blind with patriotism that you can't face reality. Wrong is wrong, no matter who does it or who says it."

Women...

"If you are in a country that is progressive, the woman is progressive. If you're in a country that reflects the consciousness toward the importance of education, it's because the woman is aware of the importance of education. But in every backward country you'll find the women are backward, and in every country where education is not stressed its because the women don't have education."

Humans, Human Rights, Humanity...

"I believe in human rights for everyone, and none of us is qualified to judge each other and that none of us should therefore have that authority."
"It is not a case of our people...wanting either separation or integration. The use of these words actually clouds the real picture. The 22 million Afro-Americans don't seek either separation or integration. They seek recognition and respect as human beings."
"I'm for truth, no matter who tells it. I'm for justice, no matter who it is for or against. I'm a human being, first and foremost, and as such I'm for whoever and whatever benefits humanity as a whole."
"We have to keep in mind at all times that we are not fighting for integration, nor are we fighting for separation. We are fighting for recognition...for the right to live as free humans in this society."
"I believe in recognizing every human being as a human being - neither white, black, brown, or red; and when you are dealing with humanity as a family there's no question of integration or intermarriage. It's just one human being marrying another human being or one human being living around and with another human being."

Who Am I?

When asked: "Do you consider yourself militant?"

"I consider myself Malcolm!"

"I'm the man you think you are.... If you want to know what I'll do, figure out what you'll do. I'll do the same thing -- only more of it."
"I am neither a fanatic nor a dreamer. I am a black man who loves peace, and justice, and loves his people." "I believe that it would be almost impossible to find anywhere in America a black man who has lived further down in the mud of human society than I have; or a black man who has been any more ignorant than I have; or a black man who has suffered more anguish during his life than I have. But it is only after the deepest darkness that the greatest joy can come; it is only after slavery and prison that the sweetest appreciation of freedom can come." "I may say, though, that I don't think it should ever be put upon a black man, I don't think the burden to defend any position should ever be put upon the black man, because it is the white man collectively who has shown that he is hostile toward integration and toward intermarriage and toward those other strides toward oneness. So as a black man, and especially as a black American, any stand that I formerly took, I don't think that I have to defend it because it's still a reaction to the society, and it's a reaction that was produced by the society; and I think that it is the society that produced this that should be attacked, not the reaction that develops among the people who are the victims of that negative society."
"I am and always will be a Muslim. My religion is Islam."

The NOI (Nation of Islam)/"Black Muslims"

"For 12 long years I lived within the narrow-minded confines of the 'straightjacket world' created by my strong belief that Elijah Muhammad was a messenger direct from God Himself, and my faith in what I now see to be a pseudo-religious philosophy that he preaches.... I shall never rest until I have undone the harm I did to so many well-meaning, innocent Negroes who through my own evangelistic zeal now believe in him even more fanatically and more blindly than I did."
"I had blind faith in him. My faith in Elijah Muhammad was more blind and more uncompromising than any faith that any man has ever had for another man. And so I didn't try and see him as he actually was."
"The thing that you have to understand about those of us in the Black Muslim movement was that all of us believed 100 percent in the divinity of Elijah Muhammad. We believed in him. We actually believed that God, in Detroit by the way, that God had taught him and all of that. I always believed that he believed in himself. And I was shocked when I found out that he himself didn't believe it. And when that shock reached me, then I began to look everywhere else and try to get a better understanding of the things that confront all of us so that we can get together in some kind of way to offset them."
"Before the Black Muslim movement came along, the NAACP was looked upon as radical; they were getting ready to investigate it. And then along came the Muslim movement and frightened the white man so hard that he began to say, 'Thank God for old Uncle Roy, and Uncle Whitney, and Uncle A. Philip....' "
"I think you'll find, brother, that there are Muslims everywhere. Wherever you find militancy today among so-called Negroes, watch real closely. You're liable to be looking at a Muslim."

Before True Islam...

"I am a Muslim, because it's a religion that teaches you an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. It teaches you to respect everybody, and treat everybody right. But it also teaches you if someone steps on your toe, chop off their foot. And I carry my religious axe with me all the time."
"There is nothing in our book, the Qur'an, that teaches us to suffer peacefully. Our religion teaches us to be intelligent. Be peaceful, be courteous, obey the law, respect everyone; but if someone lays a hand on you, send him to the cemetery."

Islam...

"I believe in Islam. I am a Muslim and there is nothing wrong with being a Muslim, nothing wrong with the religion of Islam. It just teaches us to believe in Allah as the God. Those of you who are Christian probably believe in the same God, because I think you believe in the God Who created the universe. That's the One we believe in, the One Who created universe--the only difference being you call Him God and we call Him Allah. The Jews call Him Jehovah. If you could understand Hebrew, you would probably call Him Jehovah too. If you could understand Arabic, you would probably call Him Allah...."
"America needs to understand Islam, because this is the one religion that erases from its society the race problem. Throughout my travels in the Muslim world, I have met, talked to, and even eaten with people who in America would have been considered white, but the white attitude was removed from their minds by the religion of Islam. I have never before seen sincere and true brotherhood practiced by all together, irrespective of their color."
"I believe in a religion that believes in freedom. Any time I have to accept a religion that won't let me fight a battle for my people, I say to hell with that religion."
"True Islam taught me that it takes all of the religious, political, economic, psychological, and racial ingredients, or characteristics, to make the Human Family and the Human Society complete."
"At one or another college or university, usually in the informal gatherings after I had spoken, perhaps a dozen generally white-complexioned people would come up to me, identifying themselves as Arabian, Middle Eastern or North African Muslims who happened to be visiting, studying, or living in the United States. They had said to me that, my white-indicting statements notwithstanding, they felt I was sincere in considering myself a Muslim -- and they felt if I was exposed to what they always called 'true Islam,' I would 'understand it, and embrace it.' Automatically, as a follower of Elijah, I had bridled whenever this was said. But in the privacy of my own thoughts after several of these experiences, I did question myself: if one was sincere in professing a religion, why should he balk at broadening his knowledge of that religion?
Those orthodox Muslims whom I had met, one after another, had urged me to meet and talk with a Dr. Mahmoud Youssef Shawarbi. . . . Then one day Dr. Shawarbi and I were introduced by a newspaperman. He was cordial. He said he had followed me in the press; I said I had been told of him, and we talked for fifteen or twenty minutes. We both had to leave to make appointments we had, when he dropped on me something whose logic never would get out of my head. He said, 'No man has believed perfectly until he wishes for his brother what he wishes for himself.' "
"I am and always will be a Muslim. My religion is Islam."

Miscellaneous...

"If we don't stand for something, we may fall for anything."
"Early in life I had learned that if you want something, you had better make some noise."
"My alma mater was books, a good library.... I could spend the rest of my life reading, just satisfying my curiosity."
"Anytime you see someone more successful than you are, they are doing something you aren't."
"History is a people's memory, and without a memory, man is demoted to the lower animals."

The End...

"Here I am, back in Mecca. I am still traveling, trying to broaden my mind, for I've seen too much of the damage narrow-mindedness can make of things, and when I return home to America, I will devote what energies I have to repairing the damage."
"In my recent travels into African countries and others, I was impressed by the importance of having a working unity among all peoples, black as well as white."
"For the freedom of my 22 million black brothers and sisters here in America, I do believe that I have fought the best that I know how, and the best that I could, with the shortcomings that I have had...I know that societies often have killed people who have helped to change those societies. And if I can die having brought any light, having exposed any meaningful truth that will help destroy the racist cancer that is malignant in the body of America then, all of the credit is due to Allah. Only the mistakes have been mine."
"I always knew it would end like this."
"All praise is due to Allah, the Lord of all the worlds." - Malcolm X quotes -

True Islam

"I am and always will be a Muslim. My religion is Islam."


"I am not a racist in any form whatsoever. I don't believe in any form of discrimination or segregation. I believe in Islam. I am a Muslim and there is nothing wrong with being a Muslim, nothing wrong with the religion of Islam. It just teaches us to believe in Allah as the God. Those of you who are Christian probably believe in the same God, because I think you believe in the God Who created the universe. That's the One we believe in, the One Who created universe--the only difference being you call Him God and we call Him Allah. The Jews call Him Jehovah. If you could understand Hebrew, you would probably call Him Jehovah too. If you could understand Arabic, you would probably call Him Allah...."

- Malcolm X


Islam was not born in the 7th century A.D. Rather, it is the same religion that God revealed through His messengers (peace be upon them) to every people. Islam sometimes seems strange to non-Muslims because it is a religion which impacts every part of life, from eating and sleeping to working and playing. It is not only a personal religion, but also a social one.

Muslims seek to live in accordance with God's laws. By doing so, they strive to obtain nearness to God and victory over temporary trials and temptations in this world. All aspects of their practice including prayer, fasting, charity, and pilgrimage are intended to help meet this goal. Although strict by secular standards, Islam is not an ascetic religion. Islam requires its followers to be active participants in their communities.

Muslims believe that God is One, indivisible, and they believe in all the prophets of the Christians and Jews including Adam, Noah, Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Job, Moses, Aaron, David, Solomon, Elias, Jonah, John the Baptist, and Jesus (peace be upon them).

Muslims also recognize another prophet named Muhammad (peace be upon him and his family), who is a direct descendant of Abraham through his first born son, Ishmael. His prophethood is prophesied in the Bible in several places, including Deut 18:18 and John 4:16.

The Qur'an is the holy book of Muslims. It contains many stories that are familiar to Christians and Jews. It was not created by man but was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him and his family) through the Angel Gabriel at the command of God. It contains no scientific fallacies or internal contradictions. In fact, it contains much scientific knowledge discovered by scientists only in this century. The Qur'an is an unparalleled Arabic literary masterpiece. Furthermore, it survives in its original revealed form, unlike the Torah and the Gospel.

People living in the West and throughout the world should not allow themselves to be ignorant about Islam and Muslims. For example, there are six million Muslims living in the United States out of 1.2 billion in the world. Only 18% of Muslims live in the Arab world. Demographers say that Islam is the fastest growing religion in the U.S. (and the world) due to high birth rate, immigration, and high conversion rate. By the year 2000, Islam is predicted to be the second largest religion in America if it is not already, surpassing Judaism, Mormonism, Jehovah's Witness, and other religions.

The Five Pillars of Islam

They are the framework of the Muslim life: faith, prayer, concern for the needy, self-purification, and the pilgrimage to Makkah for those who are able.

1) FAITH

There is no god worthy of worship except God and Muhammad is His messenger. This declaration of faith is called the Shahada, a simple formula which all the faithful pronounce. In Arabic, the first part is la ilaha illa Llah - 'there is no god except God'; ilaha (god) can refer to anything which we may be tempted to put in place of God - wealth, power, and the like. Then comes illa Llah: 'except God', the source of all Creation. The second part of the Shahada is Muhammadun rasulu'Llah: 'Muhammad is the messenger of God.' A message of guidance has come through a man like ourselves.


Shahada inscribed at Ottoman Topkapi Palace, Istanbul.

2) PRAYER ( Prayer Performance )

Salat is the name for the obligatory prayers which are performed five times a day, and are a direct link between the worshipper and God. There is no hierarchical authority in Islam, and no priests, so the prayers are led by a learned person who knows the Qur'an, chosen by the congregation. These five prayers contain verses from the Qur'an, and are said in Arabic, the language of the Revelation, but personal supplication can be offered in one's own language.

Prayers are said at dawn, noon, mid-afternoon, sunset and nightfall, and thus determine the rhythm of the entire day. Although it is preferable to worship together in a mosque, a Muslim may pray almost anywhere, such as in fields, offices, factories and universities. Visitors to the Muslim world are struck by the centrality of prayers in daily life.

A translation of the Call to Prayer is:

God is most great. God is most great.
God is most great. God is most great.
I testify that there is no god except God.
I testify that there is no god except God.
I testify that Muhammad is the messenger of God.
I testify that Muhammad is the messenger of God.
Come to prayer! Come to prayer!
Come to success (in this life and the Hereafter)!
Come to success!
God is most great. God is most great.
There is no god except God.

3) THE 'ZAKAT' ( Zakat Information Center )

One of the most important principles of Islam is that all things belong to God, and that wealth is therefore held by human beings in trust. The word zakat means both 'purification' and 'growth'. Our possessions are purified by setting aside a proportion for those in need, and, like the pruning of plants, this cutting back balances and encourages new growth.

Each Muslim calculates his or her own zakat individually. For most purposes this involves the payment each year of two and a half percent of one's capital.


Zakat keeps the money flowing
within a society, Cairo.
A pious person may also give as much as he or she pleases as sadaqa, and does so preferably in secret. Although this word can be translated as 'voluntary charity' it has a wider meaning. The Prophet said 'even meeting your brother with a cheerful face is charity.'

The Prophet said: 'Charity is a necessity for every Muslim. ' He was asked: 'What if a person has nothing?' The Prophet replied: 'He should work with his own hands for his benefit and then give something out of such earnings in charity.' The Companions asked: 'What if he is not able to work?' The Prophet said: 'He should help poor and needy persons.' The Companions further asked 'What if he cannot do even that?' The Prophet said 'He should urge others to do good.' The Companions said 'What if he lacks that also?' The Prophet said 'He should check himself from doing evil. That is also charity.'

4) THE FAST ( Ramadan Information Center )

Every year in the month of Ramadan, all Muslims fast from first light until sundown, abstaining from food, drink, and sexual relations. Those who are sick, elderly, or on a journey, and women who are pregnant or nursing are permitted to break the fast and make up an equal number of days later in the year. If they are physically unable to do this, they must feed a needy person for every day missed. Children begin to fast (and to observe the prayer) from puberty, although many start earlier.

Although the fast is most beneficial to the health, it is regarded principally as a method of self purification. By cutting oneself off from worldly comforts, even for a short time, a fasting person gains true sympathy with those who go hungry as well as growth in one's spiritual life.

5) PILGRIMAGE (HAJJ) ( Hajj Information Center )

The annual pilgrimage to Makkah - the Hajj - is an obligation only for those who are physically and financially able to perform it. Nevertheless, about two million people go to Makkah each year from every corner of the globe providing a unique opportunity for those of different nations to meet one another. Although Makkah is always filled with visitors, the annual Hajj begins in the twelfth month of the Islamic year (which is lunar, not solar, so that Hajj and Ramadan fall sometimes in summer, sometimes in winter). Pilgrims wear special clothes: simple garments which strip away distinctions of class and culture, so that all stand equal before God.


Pilgrims praying at the mosque in Makkah.
The rites of the Hajj, which are of Abrahamic origin, include circling the Ka'ba seven times, and going seven times between the mountains of Safa and Marwa as did Hagar during her search for water. Then the pilgrims stand together on the wide plain of Arafa and join in prayers for God's forgiveness, in what is often thought of as a preview of the Last Judgment.

In previous centuries the Hajj was an arduous undertaking. Today, however, Saudi Arabia provides millions of people with water, modern transport, and the most up-to-date health facilities.

The close of the Hajj is marked by a festival, the Eid al-Adha, which is celebrated with prayers and the exchange of gifts in Muslim communities everywhere. This, and the Eid al-Fitr, a feast-day commemorating the end of Ramadan, are the main festivals of the Muslim calendar.

Islam Denounces Terrorism

"hose who make mischief in the earth, theirs is the curse."- The Qur'an, Surah ar-R'ad 25"

Religion commands love, mercy and peace. Terror, on the other hand, is the opposite of religion; it is cruel, merciless and demands bloodshed, murder and misery. This being the case, the origins of a terrorist act should be sought in disbelief rather than in religiousness. The origins should be sought in fascist, communist, racist or materialist outlook on life. The name or the identity of the triggerman is not important. If he can kill innocent people without blinking an eye, then he is an unbeliever, not a believer. He is a murderer with no fear of Allah, whose main ambition is to shed blood and to cause harm.

For this reason, "Islamic terror" is an erroneous concept which contradicts Islam's message. The religion of Islam by no means countenances terror. On the contrary, terror (i.e. murders committed against innocent people) in Islam is a great crime and Muslims are responsible for preventing these acts and bringing peace and justice to the world.
