Imaam W. Deen Mohammed Speaks on Mujaddid and Mahdi
Imaam W. Deen Mohammed
Speaks on Mujaddid and Mahdi
1.
B.N.: As
Chief Minister, will you have all of the powers that your father had, or does
'not being the Messenger' imply that you will have less power and authority? If
so, in what areas?
Chief Min.: Well, I will ask those who would like to know more on this question to
research or study the history of prophetic figures in the Bible and Qur'an.
Moses was called the Prophet or Messenger of God, may peace be upon him, and
Joshua came into that leadership. When Muhammad, the Holy Prophet of Arabia,
physically passed away and spiritually returned to his God, the leadership
remained. History shows it as a power equal or the same as that which existed
under the personal supervision of that Arabian Prophet. Messenger is a title.
It speaks of or describes a birth and mission. That is, how that mission came
to that man. One who inherits and is favored with the same support that is
given to the Messenger has another name to describe him or to identify him or
to stand as a title for him.
That name or title for me is Chief Minister
of the Nation of Islam. And my role is not that of a Messenger of God, but that
of a "Mujeddid," meaning "One to watch over the new Islam"
and to see that it is constantly and continually being renewed.
B.N.: Brother Minister, I noticed when
you mentioned the Prophet Moses, you said: "May the peace of Allah be upon
him." Will you teach your followers when they refer to the Honorable
Elijah Muhammad to say this?
Chief Min.: Yes.
B.N.: You used the word
"mujeddid" (Mujaddid) to describe your position. What is the
translation of that word into English as one word?
Chief Min.: Mujeddid (Mujaddid) means reviver; one who renews.
(First Official
Interview Muhammad Speaks “I Was Born For The Mission” March 21, 1975)

“Every man
who is a good receptor of divine truth is not a prophet. One man will be a
prophet because a message is needed and another man will be a saint because interpretation,
adjustments and corrections are needed at that particular time and not so much
a new message. That's why saints, mujeddids, mahdis and even messiahs came when
the people were in need of more religious light or knowledge. If a man is a messiah,
it doesn't necessarily mean that he is a prophet. Any man who is divinely
clean, who has received the Word of God and who is a perfect representative of
that truth is a messiah. To be perfect in this sense means that the person
doesn't introduce foreign ideas when he talks about God and His message.
The messiah is not attached partly to the
divine message and partly to a political doctrine or to some other doctrine. He
is able to give out the message of God without corrupting that truth. The
messiah has been wiped clean with divine truth and knowledge. This cleansing
has made him clean, pure and upright. Jesus did not attach a great importance
to calling himself Messiah or Christ. He knew that being Messiah or Christ was
no supernatural thing about which one should boast. Not only was Jesus a
messiah, but he also was the Son of Man, a holy prophet of Allah.”
(December 19, 1975 Bilalian News, "
(Coming of the Son Of Man: Part 2, From out of the East Even Unto the West”)
3. “Dear beloved Muslim Brothers and Sisters,
in restoring pure Islam we have to follow the guidelines of the Quran. We have
to exemplify the life of Prophet Muhammad to whom the Quran was revealed. We
have to reflect the Quranic teachings and also reflect the leadership that was
established in Prophet Muhammad of Arabia, the one to whom the Quran was
revealed. We also have to follow and understand the Mujeddid of this day and
time, the new revived mission of Islam in the West, so that we will be guided
to the roots of the knowledge that we have. We must come to understand that
religious knowledge or revealed knowledge speaks to world knowledge or
scientific understanding. We have to understand that the job of Chief Imam W.D.
Muhammad is the answer to the Bible saying in Ezekiel "that the bones came
together."
(Imam
W. D. Muhammad, “World Community of Islam in the West: Purpose, Aim, and
Goal” March 4, 1977 Bilalian News)
4.
No, let's
look at the word "secularism." We speak of our world as being
divided: secular and non-secular. When we check this word in the dictionary we
find that it also has a very interesting meaning, and that is "aging and
cycling." Once in an age or once every century. The Muslims will recall in
the sayings of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH and all the righteous servants)
"that once at the head of every century there will come a Mujeddid who
will renew for you my religion or the religion of Al-Islam." What is this
secularism now? Should it be a secularism? No! It should be the light that is
reflected out of the Divine revelation or from the Divine revelation. It
shouldn't be materialistic, it should be knowledge that is of the essence of
Divine revelation. But instead, our world is filled up with lies, materialism,
corruption, injustice.”
(December 22, 1978 Bilalian News “The Shackles Of
Mystery: Part 1”)
5. “Mujeddid (Mujaddid) simply means one who
revives, brings back to the original, and brings the freshness back that was
there; that's all Mujeddid means. Any person that has a problem with me being
called Mujeddid in this country – where our work has been done - believe me,
they don’t belong in here with us because they are not with us in the first
place. They are against us. I never asked anybody to "call- me Mujeddid, I
said I "am" the Mujeddid. They wanted to call me a Messenger of God.
I said, no, I not a Prophet. I'm no Messenger of God. I'm a Mujeddid. You hear
me on the National Hookup; am I preaching I'm the Mujeddid? No! I'm not asking
anybody to call me that. In fact, I would advise you not to put too much
importance on that because you just give people something to talk about.
They think I'm like them. They think I want
to rip somebody off like they want to do. They judge others by what they are. Prophet
Muhammad (PBUH) said that at the head of every century. At the head of every
generation, Allah will raise up a Mujeddid. That doesn't mean every time a
child is born. What's the problem-? They just don't want follow right guidance.
They want phonies and hypocrites for their leaders. If they get a sincere
person, they don't want him; they look for some excuse to condemn him, to write
him off. My given name is Wallace D. Muhammad, and it doesn't make me feel
proud whether you call me Mujeddid or Imam Muhammad. Prophet Muhammad didn't
give people fancy titles. In fact, people weren't addressed as "Brother-
all the time. All Muslims are Brothers and Sisters, that's understood.”
(Imam Warith Deen Muhammad, (These
excerpts are from a masjid lecture in Miami, Fla, Oct. 20 1979)
6.
QUESTION: Are you recognized internationally by the
leaders of Eastern countries as being the Mujeddid (Mujaddid)? —Ashland, Ky.
IMAM: “My concern is not to be recognized as the
Mujeddid (reviver of religion). Here in the States, the Muslims who belong to
our community refer to me as Mujeddid, and they mean by that that I have
revived religious conscience. There are many, many meanings that are given to
the term "Mujeddid.1* some think of Mujeddid as being a supernatural
being. I am no supernatural being. Understanding the different meanings and
connotations of the word, I have discouraged even the use of the word Mujeddid.
I would like to be called the Imam.” (April 30, 1982 World Muslim News)
7. “The next point I want to bring to your
attention is that we believe along with you, that is the immigrant Muslims and
the Muslims of the international Muslim community or world, that there is
definitely a revival of Al-Islam going on. And it is not going on only in our
location, it is going on all over the world. It is growing and it is spreading.
There is a definite revival going on; there is a return. I can agree with
Muslims, for we can have good intentions and the choice of language starts out
being good. But in time if we go from pure intent, then in time the language
becomes bad. So they tell me that I am the Mujeddid of America.
And after reading so much about the trouble
with mujeddids I don't care to be called that; I am afraid of the word, itself.
So I don't like for us to talk about mujeddids. To me it simply means to make
something new, it is from "jeddidun." When something is new, it is
"jeddid." And "mujeddid" is to make something grow. And if
you make something new, it had better resemble the old! We don't want to make
any new religion. But I do recognize along with the Muslims of the world that (here
is a definite return. We are returning to conscious religion. I have read the
Bible and the history of the Christian religion, how it developed and grew, and
how it had the problem of people just falling asleep under ritualism. It was
condemned even by Jesus The Prophet, peace be upon him. Jesus condemned just
having empty ritualism: he condemned people following rituals blindly. We are
happy now to know that Muslims are becoming conscious and attentive to the
demands in their life from the true religion of Al-Islam and also attentive to
the demand in our life for commitment.” (February 12, 1988 Muslim Journal
“Human Rights in Al-Islam: Part 2” Lecture by Imam W. Deen Muhammad at 4th
Annual Seerah Conference in New York)
8. “This religion prepares us to accept
responsibility for the community life of man on this planet earth. The great
messengers and teachers of G-d come from mankind and they put mankind in the
right position and on the right road. But in time because man is encouraged by
religion to engage the world so that it becomes a better world as a home for
the human soul, or in trying to protect the human soul, man gets too involved
in material things and things of the flesh and forgets what he was given from
the messenger or the prophet that started him on the road. Pretty soon, he is
so far lost that he has to have another messenger or revivalist or someone to
bring him back to where he is supposed to be. This happens, it has happened and
will continue to happen. Muhammed the Prophet prophesied that his community
would go down and fall under darkness, but it would be revived.
He promised his community, and that is us we
are his community and all of the people who follow the Qur'an and Islam knowing
that it was revealed to Muhammed the Prophet; there are over 1 billion of us
now on this earth in most of the countries of the world. Muhammed the Prophet
told us that at the head of every 100 years, there would be someone to revive
the religion. Now if he said these things, should we be thinking that the Islamic
world is all right all the time? How can it be all right all the time, if the
Prophet said it was going to go into darkness, even after he had guided it
right; he had set it up correctly?
He himself said it was going to go down. He
himself said that at the head of every 100 years, there would be someone to
revive it, a mujeddid, to bring back the newness or freshness – as it was
before.
So we shouldn't then think that the Islamic
world is in good shape all of the time, if what he said is correct. There are
going to be times when the whole Islamic world is under darkness and not
finding its way. But we shouldn't give up hope, because he said that there
would come at the head of every 100 years a revivalist. What is he saying?
Do you think you can watch your calendar and
say, "its a hundred years at this moment, brother the revivalist is
here?" No, that is not how it works. In the Arabic language, Islam is
science, Islam is revelation, Islam is language that is on the level of the
common man and at the same time is much higher than the grasp of the common
man. You need a special man inspired by G-d at times, or sometimes it is a
woman, who will get us back to where we are supposed to be in our thinking.
When the thinking is corrected, the thinking then can correct the heart. But
when the thinking is in the dark, all we can depend on is the heart, and at
first the heart is innocent and good.
When Muhammed said "every 100
years," it has to be translated or interpreted. The word in Arabic for 100
is "niat" and a death is "miat." These two words have the
same essential constitution, when it comes to lettering. So when the Prophet
said a hundred years, it was a play on "death." Whenever his
community dies, there is going to be one to resurrect it. Whenever this
community dies to the right perception and way to live and practice Islam,
there will be one to revive that understanding, to give it life again.”
(July 26, 2002 to August 30, 2002 Muslim Journal “G-d Needs Nothing From His
Creation; His Creation Needs its Creator”)
9.
Mishhkat Siddiqui 1p.143#247-8; Muieddid every 100 yrs. Sami reported: about
what I know from the Prophet (pbuh) he said: “The Almighty and Glorious Allah
(swt) will send for this community at the head of every century 100 yrs.” One who
will revive their Religion for them. Abu Dawud.
Let us take this
further so we will be perfectly clear. The lost of the savior for them is for
us like the lost of knowledge and no mujeddid is around to help us. Muhammad
the Prophet (pbuh) said we will have a mujjedid at the head of every hundred
years. That is not to be taken literally it is to be translated or interpreted.
A hundred years
mean when the enlightenment is lost or when it dies in the society and
ignorance prevails G-d will bring about the birth of a mujeddid. He is giving
us comfort Muhammad pbuh is leaving us with these words so we will be
comfortable. When the ignorance begins lo fill the Islamic world we won't lose
hope we will recall what Prophet Muhammad pbuh said. The darkness is spreading
but when it becomes intense and complete G-d is going to bring about the birth
of a mujeddid so that the life will come back into the Islamic world.
(IWDM
Ramadhan session)
“The Nation of Islam is proclaiming in a loud
voice today that we are the Savior for the world. We are the ones to solve the
very serious problems that have spread through all the world's societies. There
is no supernatural Christ to ever come out of the physical clouds in the sky.
The clouds that the Christ is coming down from are the clouds of mental, moral,
and intellectual confusion and darkness. The Nation of Islam is that Body -
Christ that the world has been looking for, for almost 2,000 years.
(Imam W. Deen Mohammed, “Religion is Alive.” 1975)
“Muslims and 5 US Presidents do not agree with the trinity”
Dr. Adel
Elsaie in an article entitled “Muslims and 5 US Presidents do not agree
with the trinity” states the following: “At least five Presidents of
the USA: John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, John Quincy Adams, Millard
Fillmore, and William Howard Taft did not believe that Jesus was the
son of god. They were Unitarians that respected the teachings of Jesus and
rejected his divinity. Moreover, Sir Isaac Newton, the greatest
scientist in the history, Leo Tolstoy, the giant of the Russian literature,
and Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe, the greatest German writer (Goethe
Institutes for teaching the German language exist in many parts of the world)
did not agree with the trinity. Therefore, those TV Evangelists are either
ignorant of their history or they do not tell the WHOLE TRUTH.”
He further states: “Jefferson went so far as to produce a revised New Testament deleting all references to miracles and portraying Jesus as just an extraordinary man and a powerful moral leader. It is very interesting that Thomas Jefferson, the writer of the US Constitution, purchased a copy of the (Holy) Qur’an, and taught himself to read Arabic, and to know the basic Arabic grammars. It should be noted that Arabic is a Semitic language written from right to left as opposed to English which a Latin language written to left to right. It is suggested in this article that Thomas Jefferson went to all this work in the Quran and it language to study the Islamic Law to help him in his legal work! You be the judge!”
In that same article he gives quotes from the Presidents starting with the second President John Adams:
Dr. Adel Elsaie referenced the following sources in his article: Kane, Joseph Nathan. Facts About the Presidents (Fourth Edition). New York: The H. W. Wilson Co. (1981); DeGregorio, William A. The Complete Book of U.S. Presidents (Second Edition). New York: Dembner Books (1989); Kevin Hayes, “How Thomas Jefferson Read the Quran” Early American Literature; June 2004, Vol.39 Issue 2, P. 247.
The following are the writings of the third US President Thomas Jefferson (The writer of the US Declaration of Independence, and the signer of US Constitution):

In that same article he gives quotes from the Presidents starting with the second President John Adams:
"The divinity of Jesus is made a convenient cover for
absurdity. Nowhere in the Gospels do we find a precept for Creeds, Confessions,
Oaths, Doctrines, and whole carloads of other foolish trumpery that we find in
Christianity."
--John Adams--
"I almost shudder at the thought of alluding to the
most fatal example of the abuses of grief which the history of mankind has
preserved--the Cross. Consider what calamities that engine of grief has
produced!"
--John Adams in a letter to Thomas Jefferson--
“As I understand the Christian religion, it was, and is, a
revelation. But how has it happened that millions of fables, tales, legends,
have been blended with both Jewish and Christian revelation that have made them
the most bloody religion that has ever existed?"
--John Adams letter to F.A. Van der Kamp, Dec. 27,
1816--

The following are the writings of the third US President Thomas Jefferson (The writer of the US Declaration of Independence, and the signer of US Constitution):
“Among the sayings and discourses imputed to [Jesus] by
His biographers, I find many passages of fine imagination, correct morality,
and of the most lovely benevolence; and others, again, of so much ignorance, so
much absurdity, so much untruth, charlatanism and imposture, as to pronounce it
impossible that such contradictions should have proceeded from the same Being.
I separate, therefore, the gold from the dross; restore to Him the former, and
leave the latter to the stupidity of some, and roguery of others of His
disciples. Of this band of dupes and impostors, Paul was the great . . .
corruptor of the doctrines of Jesus.”
–Thomas Jefferson in a letter to William Short dated
April, 13, 1820.—
”The divine aspects of Christ were "the fabric of very
inferior minds. It is as easy to separate those parts, as to pick out diamonds
from dunghills."
–Thomas Jefferson in a letter to John Adams dated
January, 24, 1814.—

أَلاَّ نَعْبُدَ إِلاَّ اللّهَ وَلاَ نُشْرِكَ بِهِ شَيْئًا وَلاَ يَتَّخِذَ

"Say: 'O People of the
Book (i.e., Jews and Christians)! Come
to common terms as between us and you:
That we worship none but Allah; that we associate no partners with Him;
that we erect not, from among ourselves, Lords and patrons other than
Allah.' If then they turn back, say ye: (Bear witness that we (at least) are Muslims (bowing to Allah's Will).'”
