When did the Nation of Islam start and what did it preach?
Answer
First of all, it should be made clear that Nation of Islam (NOI) is a racist organization that is not belonging by any means to Islam religion per Quran God revelation to prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and the followers of NOI don't belong to main stream Muslims.
The Nation of Islam is an African-American religious movement founded in Detroit, Michigan, by Wallace D. Fard Muhammad in July 1930. He set out to improve the spiritual, mental, social, and economic condition of the Black men and women of America. From 1934-1975, the NOI was led by Elijah Muhammad, who established businesses, large real estate holdings, armed forces and schools. During the later part of this period, Malcolm X became a prominent minister and leader in the NOI. He was assassinated in 1965.
The followers of this organization are mainly in the US and are around 20-50 thousands. Refer to link below for more details.
NOI preaches that:
- the founder of the Nation of Islam (NOI), Wallace Fard Muhammad, is Allah (God) on earth. This goes against the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), who said that Allah is unseen.
- Black people are superior to Whites, and therefore do not accept whites into the Nation of Islam. Islam; per Quran and prophet Muhammad (PBUH) teachings; teaches us that all races are equal irrelevant to their colors, genders, races, or any thing else except piety, and that any person of any race can convert into Islam.
- Elijah Muhammad, a leader of the NOI, was a prophet. The Qur'an tells us that Muhammad was the last prophet sent to mankind.
- Black scientists created the Qur'an. The real Muslims believe that Allah created it and revealed it to prophet Muhammad (PBUH) through Angel Jibreel (Gabriel).
