ASALAMU ALEIKUM IT SEEMS ALOT OF YOU DONT KNOW A THING ABOUT THE NATION OF ISLAM. I WILL NOT GO INTO ITS HISTORY,,,,BUT WHAT THEY BELIEVE IS SIMPLE,,, THEY BELIEVE THAT A MAN CALLED FARD IS ALLAH AND THAT ELIJAH MOHAMED IS HIS PROPHET.CONTRARY TO ISLAM THEY BELIEVE THE BLACK MAN IS SUPERIOR TO ANYONE,,,,,THEY BELIEVED THE WHITE MAN IS A DEVIL. ELIJAH'S SON IMAM WARID (WALLACE), CHANGED THE NATION OF ISLAM'S DIRECTION TO THE MAIN STREAM. ACCORDING TO ME,,,,,,IMAM WARID IS A HERO AND A BRILIANT MAN WHOM I ADMIRE. YALL SHOULD STUDY ABOUT HIM THANKS

BISMILLAHI RAHMANI RAHIM ASALAMU ALEIKUM MY FELLOW BROTHERS AND SISTERS. IF YOU ASK ME THE ISSUE OF CHOOSING BETWEEN BEEN A SOMALI AND A MUSLIM IS NOT ONLY IRRELEVENT BUT ALSO INARTICULATE. I DONT JUST MAKE STATEMENTS OUT OF THE BLUE AND NOT BACK IT UP,,,,THAT WOULD BE UN-ACADEMIC. TO BEGIN WITH LET ME SAY THAT YOU CAN BE A SOMALI BY TRIBE AND A MUSLIM AT THE SAME TIME. WE ARE MULSIM SOMALIS. ALLAH IN THE GLORIOUS QURAAN SAYS AND I QUOTE "[49.13] O you men! surely We have created you of a male and a female, and made you tribes and families that you may know each other; surely the most honorable of you with Allah is the one among you most careful (of his duty); surely Allah is Knowing, Aware. SOOO,,,,WHOMSOEVER POSTED THIS QUESTION SHOULD RETHINK THEIR ARGUEMENT. THNKS
