his followers with the true religion of islam as it is practiced b in the system of america the position of in developing investor in the development of the society position of scientists policy maker policy maker for education  politics and government so we see we don't see any position any opportunity in this country close to us we believe if we qualify we can manage i i feel that the people who think like we think if we qualify we can take all the responsibility for the united state and i think that's very special for people without history to come to that position only about how long it's been since we were slaves not that long not that long a little better and a hundred years a little better a hundred years a hundred and what about thirty years or so about one hundred thirty based upon what we see that see in history what we know of history and the relative shot period of time there's colin powell a man some very powerful whites are looking at as a possibility for president of these united states our vice president of the united states in fact some on the stand very openly that he's the man that they would like to see run for the presidency of the united states an african american colin powell chief of staff there some progress the prophet noticed that the arabs were sunk deep in ignorance bigotry and disbelief superstitio need if you are going to have a nation a government if you are going to have trade with other people if you're going to have a system economic system if you're going to have business comers etc if you're going to have hospitals to care for the sick and a law to protect the people their rights and their property the knowledge that makes all that possible in a good way for us or for any people is in light men in white men so at that ignorance backwardness but we had so much difficulty so many problems for us after sixteen part me after eighteen six the fine has been a rough road but if you liberate a human being fellow you bring about the possibility for the human being to come into human excellence for the intellect to be and god says never will he change the condition of a people until they change what is bothering th stone on his chest mass tripped out there in the heat of the arabian s and that's what have made us great too and that's what a made our people agree what that one of the leaders of this nation say one of those who a key factor in bringing about the freedom from the from from from britain from the from the queen from the from the britain great britain he said give me liberty or give me death he wasn't talking about the fit the freedom for the physical body his physical body was  about the prophet had to face all sorts of difficulties threat to stop them out doing that terrible period lady she died it was just too hard too difficult may god be pleased with her and i'm sure she is in the paradise in the high place in paradise they tried their best to offer temptations of wealth and women beautiful women to the last pro dissuade him from preaching their religion to bring him back to their idol worship to ignorance and disbelief he refused all of that refused money wealth and pretty women he face persecution after persecution insult after insult danger to his own life and the life of his  loved ones is near its close relatives and loved ones also the loss of life to preach to them only to be insulted harassed stoned wounded and returned from that place bleeding and the record of the history say that people hurt the with sound of blood in his slippers and his sandals as he was walking away from that place he suffered all that he was alone by himself except for god as his company until companions relatives and companions were actually laid the foundation was with him from the god be pleased with them and in time we know others came but for about eleven years or more he had only a very very few follow they were outnumbered so much by the disbelieve us that their life was made very miserable for all those years i wonder will we still be here if we were tested like that i don't compare myself with our great leader and model human being the prophet but i can prophet i started out and as long as they're about it thought that i was going to go in the same way of the nation of islam they were ready to give me money and everything else but as soon as they found out i went to do that they started saying he's messing up everything messing up everything friends but you were enemies who came into the temple of islam nation of islam as friends but really were enemies serving the enemy and you came in and made it possible for them a carry out that plan against  prophet finally got an opportunity god gave him friends in medina supporters from the neighboring city medina that is now to many parts of the world brought the revival and civilization back to the last loss nations the last communities of men and eventually spock the rebirth of what last prophet the seal of the prophet mohammad all of this is very important in our picture of islam you want to see islam you should see these important details in the life and the life history of muslims followers of the prophet and in the life of the e e s o n that's what i got from the book i got it because i like it i got it because that's the way i think i got it because that's the we have
