As salaam alaikum – Peace be unto you!

Dear Reader

We thank Allah for appearing in the person of Master WFard Muhammad to whom all praise is forever due. Wethank Him for raising a Leader, Teacher and Guide in theHonourable Elijah Muhammad and we thank Him for a finalReminder and Warner in our midst today in the HonourableMinister Louis Farrakhan.

With each passing year, it is important to examine what wehave accomplished, to review our circumstances and toimprove ourselves, our performance and our effectivenessin the community in the years to come.

The Nation of Islam London Study Group (LSG) compiledthis annual report documenting our recent activities andachievements up to 2015 and early 2016. When we recordour history we leave an account of our work for futuregenerations. The LSG has a duty to tell our story regardingthe work done on behalf of the Honourable ElijahMuhammad, Minister Louis Farrakhan and the Nation ofIslam, in the UK.

Despite the trials, past and present, LSG Believers love theWord and the responsibilities that come with it. 2015 was ayear where the LSG strengthened its foundation. Our tiesand affiliations with our extended family in the UK andabroad, grew stronger. The LSG recognise that there is stilla long way for us to go, to reach and rescue members ofour family.

May Allah continue to Bless us all to do greater work in theyear 2016 and beyond and continue to work cheerfully.

Honourable Elijah Muhammad

What the Muslims want 1. We want freedom. We want a full and complete freedom.

2. We want justice. Equal justice under the law. We wantjustice applied equally to all, regardless of creed or class orcolour.

3. We want equality of opportunity. We want equalmembership in society with the best in civilized society.

4. We want our people in America whose parents orgrandparents were descendants from slaves, to be allowedto establish a separate state or territory of their own–eitheron this continent or elsewhere. We believe that our formerslave masters are obligated to provide such land and thatthe area must be fertile and minerally rich. We believe thatour former slave masters are obligated to maintain andsupply our needs in this separate territory for the next 20 to25 years – until we are able to produce and supply our ownneeds. Since we cannot get along with them in peace andequality, after giving them 400 years of our sweat and bloodand receiving in return some of the worst treatment humanbeings have ever experienced, we believe our contributionsto this land and the suffering forced upon us by whiteAmerica, justifies our demand for complete separation in astate or territory of our own.

5. We want freedom for all Believers of Islam now held infederal prisons. We want freedom for all Black men andwomen now under death sentence in innumerable prisonsin the North as well as the South. We want every Blackman and woman to have the freedom to accept or rejectbeing separated from the slave master’s children andestablish a land of their own. We know that the above planfor the solution of the Black and white conflict is the bestand only answer to the problem between two people.

6. We want an immediate end to the police brutality andmob attacks against the so-called Negro throughout theUnited States. We believe that the Federal governmentshould intercede to see that Black men and women tried inwhite courts receive justice in accordance with the laws ofthe land–or allow us to build a new nation for ourselves,


mailto:[email protected]

dedicated to justice, freedom and liberty.

7. As long as we are not allowed to establish a state orterritory of our own, we demand not only equal justiceunder the laws of the United States, but equal employmentopportunities–NOW! We do not believe that after 400 yearsof free or nearly free labour, sweat and blood, which hashelped America become rich and powerful, so manythousands of Black people should have to subsist on reliefor charity or live in poor houses.

8. We want the government of the United States to exemptour people from ALL taxation as long as we are deprived ofequal justice under the laws of the land.

9. We want equal education–but separate schools up to 16for boys and 18 for girls on the condition that the girls besent to women’s colleges and universities. We want allBlack children educated, taught and trained by their ownteachers. Under such schooling system we believe we willmake a better nation of people. The United Statesgovernment should provide, free, all necessary text booksand equipment, schools and college buildings. The Muslimteachers shall be left free to teach and train their people inthe way of righteousness, decency and self respect.

10. We believe that intermarriage or race mixing should beprohibited. We want the religion of Islam taught withouthindrance or suppression.

Master W Fard Muhammad

What The Muslims Believe1. WE BELIEVE In the One God whose proper Name isAllah.2. WE BELIEVE in the Holy Qur’an and in the Scriptures ofall the Prophets of God.3. WE BELIEVE in the truth of the Bible, but we believethat it has been tampered with and must be reinterpretedso that mankind will not be snared by the falsehoods thathave been added to it.4. WE BELIEVE in Allah’s Prophets and the Scriptures theybrought to the people.5. WE BELIEVE in the the resurrection of the dead–not inphysical resurrection–but in mental resurrection. Webelieve that the so-called Negroes are most in need ofmental resurrection; therefore they will be resurrected first.Furthermore, we believe we are the people of God’s choice,

as it has been written, that God would choose the rejectedand the despised. We can find no other persons fitting thisdescription in these last days more that the so-calledNegroes in America. We believe in the resurrection of therighteous.6. WE BELIEVE in the judgment; we believe this firstjudgment will take place as God revealed, in America…7. WE BELIEVE this is the time in history for the separationof the so-called Negroes and the so-called whiteAmericans. We believe the Black man should be freed inname as well as in fact. By this we mean that he should befreed from the names imposed upon him by his formerslave masters. Names which identified him as being theslave master’s slave. We believe that if we are free indeed,we should go in our own people’s names–the Black peopleof the Earth.8. WE BELIEVE in justice for all, whether in God or not; webelieve as others, that we are due equal justice as humanbeings. We believe in equality–as a nation–of equals. Wedo not believe that we are equal with our slave masters inthe status of “freed slaves.” We recognize and respectAmerican citizens as independent peoples and we respecttheir laws which govern this nation.9. WE BELIEVE that the offer of integration is hypocriticaland is made by those who are trying to deceive the Blackpeoples into believing that their 400-year-old open enemiesof freedom, justice and equality are, all of a sudden, their“friends.” Furthermore, we believe that such deception isintended to prevent Black people from realizing that thetime in history has arrived for the separation from thewhites of this nation. If the white people are truthful abouttheir professed friendship toward the so-called Negro, theycan prove it by dividing up America with their slaves. We donot believe that America will ever be able to furnish enoughjobs for her own millions of unemployed, in addition to jobsfor the 20,000,000 black people as well.10. WE BELIEVE that we who declare ourselves to berighteous Muslims, should not participate in wars whichtake the lives of humans. We do not believe this nationshould force us to take part in such wars, for we havenothing to gain from it unless America agrees to give us thenecessary territory wherein we may have something to fightfor.11. WE BELIEVE our women should be respected andprotected as the women of other nationalities are respectedand protected.12. WE BELIEVE that Allah (God) appeared in the Personof Master W Fard Muhammad, July, 1930; the long-awaited“Messiah” of the Christians and the “Mahdi” of the Muslims.We believe further and lastly that Allah is God and besidesHIM there is no god and He will bring about a universalgovernment of peace wherein we all can live in peacetogether.
