What is the origin of the nation of Islam?
There are four possible origins for the word 'mosque' in the English language. The first possibility is that it derives from the French word 'mosquee' that existed during the period in French linguistic history known as 'Middle French'. The second possibility is that it is a derivative of the Arabic word 'masjid'. The third possibility is that it derives from the Old Italian word 'moschea' and the final possibility is that it comes from the Old Spanish word 'mezquita'. These various words were used to describe the Muslim place of worship in the various languages mentioned.
My research found no indication that mosque was derived from the word 'mosquito'. Regarding the appearance of the term mosque in the English language, scholars suggest it was around 1711 AD. This is far after King Ferdinand and the Crusades. It might be that the term 'mezquita,' used to describe a masjid in old Spanish, came from the word 'mosquito' and then subsequently the term 'mezquita' was used to form the term mosque. However, this would not mean that the term mosque was developed as a result of the story you related.

He was just 41 years old, and is believed to have been murdered by the 'Black Legionnaires', a paramilitary white supremacist organisation strongly linked to the Ku Klux Klan.
His wife Louise suffered a series of nervous breakdowns following his death, and was admitted to the State Mental Hospital at Kalamazoo in 1937, where she remained until '59.
She died in 1991 at the age of 94, still maintaining that Malcolm was murdered on the orders of Louis Farrakhan, and urging that he be prosecuted for ordering her son's death.

Malcom X had a strong belief that the black community sat back to much and let the "white society" as he called them, stomp all over them. In his speech he stated that the blacks should be more assertive and stand up for their rights.
Unlike most leaders of the day, he was not a non violence type of leader which became his undoing.
What was the impact of Enlightenment on history politically socially and economically?
The enlightenment changed attitudes to politics, philosophy, religion, the rich and upper class, dress, the monarchy, gender, architecture, writing, human rights, etc. It basically had a profound effect on almost all aspects of life. It was one of the causes of the French Revolution, which is widely regarded as the most important event in history. The enlightenment started a challenge to the monarchy and to the established upper class. It caused people to open their minds, for example, the enlightenment was the first time it became acceptable to be an atheist. People started to discuss things like art and politics, and challenging the establishment became socially acceptable.
Can you give a paragraph on what Malcolm x did?
Malcolm X (1925-1965) raised the social and political awareness of African-Americans, at a time when the concept of racial equality was still being violently resisted. He proposed black supremacy in the face of de facto white supremacy.
Malcolm X did not believe that blacks (African-Americans) could or should depend upon whites to regain the rights that blacks had been deprived of. He also believed that Islam provided a valuable alternative to Christian denominations, at least as it was interpreted by the predominant Black Muslim group (the Nation of Islam). He endorsed separatism rather than integration as a means for African-Americans to exert their political power, not to ask for but to demand change.
What dose x mean in Malcolm X?
In 1952, after his release from prison, Malcolm went to meet Elijah Muhammad in Chicago. It was soon after this that he changed his surname to "X". Malcolm explained the name by saying, The "X" is meant to symbolize the rejection of "slave names" and the absence of an inherited African name to take its place. The "X" is also the brand that many slaves received on their upper arm. This rationale led many members of the Nation of Islam to change their surnames to X.
