WITH ALLAH’S NAME THE MERCIFUL BENEFACTOR, THE MERCIFUL REDEEMER
IMAM W. D. MOHAMMED TAUGHT US THAT:
LEADERS MUST BE CHOSEN AND APPROVED BY THOSE PERSONS THEY DESIRE TO LEAD
AND THEY MUST BE FAIR, JUST, OPEN AND TRANSPARENT
IN ALL OF THEIR COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENTS
November 14, 2008
Dear Muslims, Believers, Brothers and Sisters who follow the leadership of Imam W. D. Mohammed
RECENTLY IN THE MUSLIM JOURNAL, THERE WAS AN APPEAL FOR ALL BELIEVERS TO “PLEASE CONTINUE TO SEND IN YOUR DONATIONS TO THE MOSQUE CARES (MINISTRY OF W. DEEN MOHAMMED”. THE AUTHOR OF THIS REQUEST, WALLACE MOHAMMED II, STATED:
YOUR CHARITY/ZAKAT WILL BE USED FOR CHARITABLE PURPOSES TO HELP THE NEEDY AND TO DO GOOD IN THE COMMUNITY–MUSLIM AND NON-MUSLIM COMMUNITIES–AS WAS THE WAY OF IMAM W. DEEN MOHAMMED.
HE WENT ON TO SAY THAT THE MOSQUE CARES AS A CHARITY WILL OPERATE IN ACCORD WITH STATE AND IRS LAWS.
WHAT WAS NOT SAID IS THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO DO THINGS AS IMAM MOHAMMED DID THEN:
WHEN DID THIS COMMUNITY RATIFY WALLACE TO BE PRESIDENT OVER THE MOSQUE CARES?
REMEMBER IMAM MOHAMMED DID NOT JUST STEP OUT OF NOWHERE AND ANNOUNCE IN THE NEWSPAPER THAT “I AM YOUR LEADER, TRUST ME” THEN START LEADING. NO, EVEN THOUGH THOUSANDS OF US HEARD AND KNEW THAT PROFESSOR FARD MUHAMMAD HAD TOLD THE HONORABLE ELIJAH MUHAMMAD THAT IMAM W. D. MOHAMMED WOULD LEAD THE COMMUNITY AFTER HIS FATHER, IMAM MOHAMMED STILL WENT BEFORE THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY FIRST AND SOUGHT THEIR APPROVAL BEFORE HE TOOK THE FIRST STEP OF LEADERSHIP. HE THEN SOUGHT THEIR INPUT AND SUPPORT FOR AN OPEN AND TRANSPARENT TRUSTWORTHY LEADERSHIP FROM THAT DAY UNTIL THE DAY THAT HE DIED, THAT’S WHY WE TRUSTED HIM AND THAT IS WHY HE WAS SUCCESSFUL.
2. SO HOW CAN WE, THE MUSLIM COMMUNITY, FOLLOWERS OF IMAM W. D. MOHAMMED, TRUST AN INDIVIDUAL THAT WE, DON’T KNOW AND REFUSES TO MAKE HIMSELF KNOWN TO THE COMMUNITY THAT HE CLAIMS HE IS SERVING. HE ALSO, WHILE LENDING LIP SERVICE TO HIS FATHERS HONORABLE LEADERSHIP, REFUSES TO FOLLOW IN PRINCIPLE THE WAY OF HIS FATHER WHILE ASKING US, THE BELIEVERS, TO GIVE HIM THE SAME ALLEGIANCE THAT WE GAVE TO HIS FATHER. HOW CAN WE GO ALONG WITH THIS CONFLICTING RELATIONSHIP?
WALLACE II BOLDLY SAYS: YOUR CHARITY/ZAKAT WILL BE USED FOR CHARITABLE PURPOSES TO HELP THE NEEDY AND TO DO GOOD IN THE COMMUNITY–MUSLIM AND NON-MUSLIM COMMUNITIES–AS WAS THE WAY OF IMAM W. DEEN MOHAMMED.
IS THE WIFE OF IMAM MOHAMMED CONSIDERED “NEEDY” AND WORTHY OF CHARITY?
CAN PUTTING IMAM MOHAMMED’S ONLY WIFE, KHADIJAH SIDDEEQ, OUT OF HER HOME AND CHANGING THE LOCKS ON THE DOOR OF HER HOME BE CALLED “HELPING THE NEEDY AND DOING GOOD IN THE COMMUNITY?
WAS THIS THE WAY THAT IMAM MOHAMMED TREATED THE MUSLIMS?
WAS THIS THE WAY IMAM MOHAMMED TREATED ANYONE?
HOW CAN WALLACE II COME BEFORE THIS COMMUNITY AND ASK YOU TO SEND HIM YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY SO THAT HE CAN DO GOOD IN THE COMMUNITY FOR MUSLIMS AND NON MUSLIMS ALIKE AND THEN SPEND NEARLY 70 THOUSAND DOLLARS OF YOUR MONEY AND NOT SPEND ONE PENNY TO HELP THE WIFE OF IMAM MOHAMMED?
KEEP IN MIND AS PRESIDENT OF THE MOSQUE CARES WALLACE II SANCTIONED THE UN-ISLAMIC AND UNLAWFUL EVICTION OF IMAM MOHAMMED’S WIFE KHADIJAH, FROM HER HOME THEN REFUSED TO RETURN OUR PHONE CALLS WE MADE TO HIM. THIS SAME PRESIDENT OF THE MOSQUE CARES KNOWING THE TERRIBLE THINGS THAT HIS SISTER DID TO KHADIJAH SIDDEEQ, LOOKED THE OTHER WAY AND INTENTIONALLY WITHHELD GIVING KHADIJAH ANY FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO MAINTAIN HERSELF UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES WHILE PRESENTING ONE OR POSSIBLY TWO $3000. CHECKS FOR HIS MOTHER TO BE PAID OUT OF THE MOSQUE CARES FINANCES. IS THIS CHARITY FOR THE POOR AND NEEDY?
CAN ONE BE CONSIDERED POOR AND NEEDY WHEN YOU OWN YOUR OWN HOME, A CONDO, YOUR OWN CAR AND HAVE RECEIVED UNDESERVINGLY OVER THIRTY SIX THOUSAND DOLLARS A YEAR PLUS HEALTH AND OTHER EXPENSES FOR THE LAST 10 YEARS OR MORE?
SHIRLEY MUHAMMAD WENT DOWN TOWN AND LIED ABOUT HER ISLAMIC MARRIAGE AND DIVORCE SO THAT SHE COULD DECEIVE THE COURT INTO FORCING IMAM MOHAMMED TO HAVE TO GIVE HER $3000 DOLLARS A MONTH. HER SCHEME ENDED WHEN IMAM MOHAMMED DIED AND NOW THAT SHE HAS NO WAY OF GETTING ANY MORE MONEY FROM DOWNTOWN SHE PRESENT HERSELF TO THIS COMMUNITY THAT SHE DECEIVED AND USED FOR HER OWN PERSONAL GAIN DEMANDING THAT YOU BROTHERS AND SISTERS GIVE HER THE THREE THOUSAND DOLLARS EACH MONTH THAT SHE HAD FORMERLY “EXTORTED” FROM IMAM MOHAMMED AGAINST HIS WILL. SHE PRESENTED HERSELF AS BEING ONE OF THE “NEEDY” TO ROB THE MUSLIM COMMUNITY BECAUSE THE PEOPLE DOWNTOWN CLOSED THE DOOR ON HER AND WILL NOT GO ANY FURTHER WITH HER. SO NOW THIS “POOR LADY” WHO OWNS HER OWN HOME, A CONDO, A CAR AND HAS A HEALTHY BANK ACCOUNT WANTS YOU, THE POOR STRUGGLING MUSLIMS TO SUPPORT HER STRANGE LIFE STYLE AND HABITS TO THE TUNE OF THREE THOUSAND DOLLARS A MONTH.
SHIRLEY MOHAMMED IS NOT NEEDY. AS I SAID IN AN EARLIER WRITING, HER SON IS OVER THE MOST LUCRATIVE PROGRAM THAT THIS COMMUNITY HAS AND WITH A LITTLE WORK IT WILL RENDER MILLIONS OF DOLLARS THAT COULD AND SHOULD SUPPORT THE ENTIRE MOHAMMED FAMILY. SHE ALSO COULD SELL EITHER HER HOUSE OR CONDO AND LIVE THE REST OF HER LIFE IN A STYLE THAT THE REST OF US COULD ONLY WISH FOR. SO WHERE IS THE JUSTIFICATION FOR THE POOR BELIEVER IN THIS COMMUNITY TO TAKE CARE OF SHIRELY MOHAMMED. SHE ALREADY STOLE EVERY DIME AND EVERY BIT OF SUPPORT MEANT FOR IMAM MOHAMMED’ TRUE WIFE, KHADIJAH NOW THAT SHE HAS ROBBED KHADIJAH SHE WANTS TO ROB YOU THE BELIEVERS IN THIS COMMUNITY. I SAY ENOUGH IS ENOUGH AND HER STEALING DAYS FROM MUSLIMS MUST COME TO AN END.
SO WALLACE II CARRIED A CHECK TO YUSEF ABDULLAH TO GET HIM TO SIGN ON TO THIS RIP OFF OF THE MUSLIMS BY HIS MOTHER SHIRLEY MUHAMMAD AND YUSEF REFUSED AND RESIGNED HIS POSITION RATHER THAN TO GET INVOLVED WITH THAT FRAUDULENT BEHAVIOR. SO WALLACE II–THE PRESIDENT OF THE MOSQUE CARES, THE ONE WHO WANTS YOU TO BELIEVE THAT HE IS GOING TO CONTINUE TO FOLLOW IN THE HONORABLE PATH THAT IMAM MOHAMMED LED THIS COMMUNITY IN–SCHEMED TO GET SOMEONE ON BOARD WHO WOULD SIGN ANY CHECK THAT HE WANTED SIGNED AND THAT HE COULD DEPEND ON NOT QUESTIONING HIM GIVING THREE THOUSAND DOLLARS OF THE MUSLIM’S MONEY TO HIS WELL TO DO MOTHER EVERY MONTH. SO HE CHOSE THE ONLY ONE THAT HE KNEW WHO WOULD NOT CHALLENGE HIM AND THAT ONE WAS HIS WIFE ROBIN.
NOW LET US LOOK AT HOW WALLACE REPORTED THIS SCHEME TO YOU, THE MUSLIM COMMUNITY. LET’S SEE HOW HE SLIPPED HIS WIFE INTO POSITION TO BE THE SECOND SIGNER ON OUR COMMUNITY ACCOUNT THAT WAS SET UP FOR TWO PEOPLE TO SIGN AS A SAFE GUARD AGAINST THIS COMMUNTY BEING ROBBED.
IN THE MUSLIM JOURNAL, THERE IS AN ARTICLE BY WALLACE MOHAMMED II GOING BACK TO MID OCTOBER AND RAN FOR A NUMBER OF WEEKS ENTITLED “THE MOSQUE CARES/MINISTRY OF W. DEED MOHAMMED-A LEGACY OF CHARITABLE LEADERSHIP SUSTAINED”. NOW WHO COULD HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT? ON THE SURFACE, NOT A SINGLE SOUL INCLUDING MYSELF. HOWEVER LET US SEE WHAT WALLACE II WAS ATTEMPTING TO SMOOTHLY PUT OVER ON THIS COMMUNITY.
IN THE THIRD PARAGRAPH WALLACE SMOOTHLY STATES: “THE BOARD FOR THE MINISTRY HAS MET AND WILL KEEP INTACT THIS BOARD MEMBERSHIP, WITH THE ADDITION OF ROBIN MOHAMMED IN THE POSITION OF CORPORATE TREASURER, THE POSITION HELD BY IMAM W. DEEN MOHAMMED…”
HERE WE SEE WALLACE DECEITFULLY PUTTING HIS WIFE INTO POSITION TO DO HIS BIDDING KNOWING THAT THIS WAS NOT THE PRACTICE THAT IMAM MOHAMMED APPROVED OF. WALLACE NEVER TOLD THE COMMUNITY THAT THIS LADY ROBIN IS HIS WIFE. HE NEVER TOLD THE COMMUNITY THAT THIS SAME ROBIN WILL NOW BE A SIGNER ON THE MOSQUE CARES CHECKING ACCOUNT. WALLACE NEVER TOLD THE COMMUNITY THAT HE HAD TRIED TO GET YUSEF TO SIGN A THREE THOUSAND DOLLAR CHECK FOR HIS MOTHER ALREADY AND YUSEF REFUSED. WALLACE ONLY TOLD THIS COMMUNITY THAT HE HAD MADE A NORMAL EVERYDAY ADJUSTMENT WHEN IN FACT, WHAT HE DID WAS MONUMENTAL BECAUSE NOW HE IS ASKING THE BELIEVERS TO SEND HIM YOUR MONEY AND TELLING YOU THAT HE WILL WATCH OVER YOUR MONEY AS IMAM MOHAMMED DID AND THIS IS NOT TRUE.
I AM ASKING EVERY MUSLIM THAT HAS SENT OR GIVEN ONE PENNY TO THE MOSQUE CARES, TO WRITE OR CALL WALLACE II AND DEMAND THAT HE PUBLISH IN THE PAPER THE ANSWER TO THESE QUESTIONS:
OF THE NEAR $7000. THAT YOU WALLACE MOHAMMEDII REPORTED YOU SPENT IN CHARITY HOW MUCH WAS GIVEN TO YOUR MOTHER SHIRLEY MUHAMMAD?
WHAT QUALIFIES SHIRLEY MUHAMMAD AS BEING NEEDY?
IF HE REFUSES TO PUBLISH IN THE MUSLIM JOURNAL AN ANSWER TO THESE QUESTIONS YOU SHOULD NOT SEND ONE RED CENT TO THIS EFFORT UNTIL AND UNLESS HE DOES.
A COMMUNITY ACCOUNT SHOULD NEVER HAVE A HUSBAND AND WIFE HAVING ENOUGH POWER AND AUTHORITY BETWEEN THE TWO OF THEM TO DO WHAT EVER THEY SO WILL TO DO.
SO WALLACE DECEITFULLY “WANTS TO NOW USE YOUR MONEY TO KEEP HIS MOTHER HAPPY IN THE NAME OF HELPING THE NEEDY)
YET WALLACE HAS THE AUDACITY TO ASK THE BELIEVERS TO KEEP SENDING HIM MONEY AND CLAIMS THAT HE WILL USE YOUR MONEY TO HELP THE NEEDY AND DO GOOD IN THE COMMUNITY AS IMAM MOHAMMED DID.
TWO MONTHS HAS GONE BY SINCE THE DEATH OF IMAM MOHAMMED AND WALLACE MOHAMMED HAS FOUND THE VOICE TO ASK YOU FOR YOUR MONEY OVER AND OVER AGAIN BUT IS DEAF DUMB AND BLIND WHEN IT COMES TO SPEAKING OUT AGAINST THE INJUSTICE THAT HE HAS IMPLICITLY SANCTIONED AGAINST KHADIJAH SIDDEEQ.
WALLACE, WHERE IS THE OUT CRY AGAINST INJUSTICE? YOU CLAIM THAT YOU ARE WORKING IN THE WAY OF IMAM MOHAMMED, THEN WHERE IS THE OUT CRY AGAINST THIS TERRIBLE ACT THAT YOU HAVE SANCTIONED AND YOUR SISTER PERFORMED?
SO IF WALLACE IS GOING TO FOLLOW IN THE WAY OF HIS FATHER, THEN SOME ONE PLEASE TELL ME WHEN IMAM MOHAMMED LENT HIS SUPPORT FOR THE TRAMPLING DOWN AND MISTREATMENT OF ANYONE?
PLEASE TELL ME WHEN IMAM MOHAMMED IGNORED THE PLIGHT OF THE ABUSED SUFFERING MUSLIMS AND ONLY BEGGED FOR THEIR HARD EARNED MONEY AND LIED TO THEM AS TO HOW IT WOULD BE USED AFTER GETTING IT?
WALLACE CLAIMS THAT HE IS GOING TO GIVE CHARITY TO MUSLIMS AND NON-MUSLIMS AND HE PUTS A FIGURE OF SEVEN THOUSAND DOLLARS SPENT IN THE PAPER AND CALLS IT GIVING CHARITY.
WHOSE CHARITY? WHO RECEIVED THAT CHARITY? WHY DID HE FORGET TO SAY WHO RECEIVED THAT CHARITY? WHEN HE MAKES HIS REPORT TO THE GOVERNMENT HE IS GOING TO HAVE TO TELL THEM WHO HE GAVE THE CHARITY TO SO WHY CAN’T THOSE WHOSE MONEY IT IS THAT HE IS GIVING AWAY KNOW WHO RECEIVED THAT CHARITY.
I KNOW THAT IT CAN BE SENSITIVE TO REPORT WHO RECEIVES CHARITY BUT WHEN YOU ARE DEALING WITH A SITUATION AS SHAKY AS WALLACE’S SITUATION IS HE WILL HAVE TO MAKE KNOWN EVERY CENT HE SPENDS AND WHO HE SPENDS IT ON UNTIL HE ESTABLISHES SOME CREDIBILITY AND TRUST WITH THIS COMMUNTY WHICH HE DOES NOT HAVE AT THIS TIME.
LET US TAKE A LOOK AT THE OPENING MOVES OF A YOUNG MAN WHO WANTS THIS COMMUNITY TO FOLLOW HIM AND TO TRUST HIM. A YOUNG MAN WHO CLAIMS THAT “THE LEGACY ESTABLISHED BY IMAM W. DEEN MOHAMMED VIA OF HIS MINISTRY WILL CONTINUE. A YOUNG MAN THAT KNOWS HOW TO BEG FOR YOUR MONEY WEEK AFTER WEEK AFTER WEEK BUT DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO SPEAK A SINGLE WORD CONDEMNING THE INJUSTICES BEING HEAPED UPON THE INNOCENT WIFE OF HIS FATHER KHADIJAH SIDDEEQ BY HIS FAMILY MEMBER.
WALLACE STATES “PLEASE CONTINUE TO SEND IN YOUR DONATIONS … I WILL BE SAFE GUARDING THOSE DONATIONS AND SEEING THAT THEY ARE USED IN ACCORD WITH THE CHARITABLE WORK THAT IMAM MOHAMMED STARTED…” HE GOES ON AND STATES THAT “THE COMMUNITY OF IMAM W. DEEN MOHAMMED AND THE INITIATIVES OF IMAM MOHAMMED WILL BE KEPT ALIVE WITH YOUR SUPPORT”
SO WITH THE ABOVE IN MIND WALLACE PUBLISHES IN THE MUSLIM JOURNAL A 2 MONTH “PAYMENT ACTIVITY FOR SEPTEMBER AND OCTOBER BUT FAILS TO INCLUDE HOW MUCH MONEY WAS COLLECTED DURING THAT TIME AND HOW MUCH MONEY IS ON HAND IN THAT ACCOUNT (*I have compared his charitable giving and spending to how he has treated Khadijah Siddeeq, the wife of Imam Mohammed):

*KHADIJAH SIDDEEQ $ 0
WIFE OF IMAM MOHAMMED
TOTAL $65, 874.00
*KHADIJAH SIDDEEQ $ 0
WIFE OF IMAM MOHAMMED
NOW DOES THIS KIND OF ACTION BY ONE WHO WANTS THE BELIEVERS TO SEND HIM THEIR MONEY TO MANAGE, QUALIFY FOR THE UNCONDITIONAL SUPPORT AND TRUST OF THIS ISLAMIC COMMUNITY?
WALLACE WANTS YOU TO BELIEVE THAT HE IS GOING TO PROVIDE CHARITY TO NON MUSLIMS WHEN HE REFUSES TO EVEN TAKE A PHONE CALL FROM THE MUSLIM WIFE OF HIS FATHER NEVERTHELESS GIVE HER ANY SUPPORT.
(The Mosque Cares, must continue to file annual reports with various Government agencies. The Secretary of State requires various reports and disclosures. The Illinois Attorney General also requires various annual reports, depending on the scope of the organization.)
NOW, IF THOSE WHO ARE LEADING AND SPENDING THE DONATED COMMUNITY MONEY ARE GOING TO BE OPEN AND TRANSPARENT
FOR THE STATE TO SEE AND KNOW EVERYONE WHO IS GIVEN A SINGLE PENNY OF THE MEMBERS’ CONTRIBUTIONS AND HOW MUCH EACH PERSON IS GIVEN, SHOULDN’T THOSE MUSLIMS WHO DONATED THIS MONEY BE GIVEN THE SAME RESPECT AS THE STATE? SHOULDN’T THIS LEADERSHIP THAT WANTS YOU TO TURN YOUR MONEY OVER TO THEM TO SPEND ON CAUSES THAT THEY DEEM WORTHY, SHOULDN’T THIS LEADERSHIP IN ALL FAIRNESS, NOT ONLY MAKE A COMPLETE DETAILED REPORT TO THE STATE EXPLAINING HOW AND TO WHOM EVERY CENT WAS CONTRIBUTED, SHOULDN’T THEY ALSO PROVIDE THE MUSLIM COMMUNITY WITH THIS SAME INFORMATION THAT THEY ARE PROVIDING TO THE GOVERNMENT?
BARE IN MIND THE GOVERNMENT IS NOT GIVING THESE NEWLY UN-RATIFIED LEADERS A DIME; IT IS THE MUSLIM COMMUNITY THAT IS PROVIDING THESE UNTESTED NEW LEADERS MONEY TO SPEND. NOW, WHY WOULDN’T THIS SAME LEADERSHIP, THAT THE COMMUNITY IS UNFAMILAR WITH, BE OPEN AND TRANSPARENT FOR THE MUSLIM COMMUNITY TO SEE AND KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING WITH THE COMMUNITY’S MONEY? IT IS YOU THE RANK AND FILE MEMBERS OF THIS COMMUNITY WHOM THESE STRANGE LEADERS ARE ASKING TO SEND TO THEM YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY. THEY CLAIM THAT THEY NEED YOUR MONEY TO ALLOW THIS PROGRAM TO CONTINUE TO EXIST. IF THIS IS TRUE THEN WHY DO THEY WANT TO KEEP SECRET TO WHOM THEY GIVE YOUR MONEY AND HOW MUCH OF YOUR MONEY THEY HAVE GIVEN TO THESE MYSTERY PEOPLE AND FOR WHAT PURPOSE?
IT IS JUST BASIC DECENCY AND FAIRNESS TO INFORM THOSE PERSONS WHOSE HARD EARNED MONEY IS BEING GIVEN AWAY, AS TO WHOM THEIR MONEY HAS BEEN GIVEN AND WHAT IS THE JUSTIFICATION FOR THESE UNDISCLOSED PERSONS BEING GIVEN THE BELIEVERS’ MONEY?
WE WERE TOLD VIA OF A PUBLISHED ARTICLE BY WALLACE II THAT A SISTER NAMED ROBIN HAS BEEN GIVEN THE RESPONSIBILITY AND POSITION OF TREASURE OVER THE MOSQUE CARES. THIS POSITION, TREASURER, WAS FORMERLY HELD BY IMAM MOHAMMED AND THAT IS THE ONLY INFORMATION WALLACE CHOSE TO TELL THE COMMUNITY ABOUT HER. ANY ONE WHO HAS BEEN ASKED TO TAKE IMAM MOHAMMED’S PLACE DOING ANYTHING HAS BEEN ASKED TO PERFORM A VERY GREAT TASK. THIS TAKES AND REQUIRES A VERY VERY BIG DECISION AND NEEDS SOME COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT. IN FACT, WHEN UNDERTAKING SUCH A DECISION A WISE “LEADER” WOULD FIRST BRING THAT PERSON’S NAME BEFORE THE COMMUNITY AND SEEK THEIR GUIDANCE, APPROVAL AND RATIFICATION AS IMAM MOHAMMED INSISTED ALL OF HIS IMAM’S SUBMIT TO.
WHAT QUALIFIES HER FOR THE POSITION THAT WAS FORMERLY THE POSITION HELD BY IMAM MOHAMMED? WHO IS SHE AND WHAT WILL BE OR ARE HER DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES? WHY WAS SHE CHOSEN TO TAKE OVER IMAM MOHAMMED’S FORMER POSITION? WHY WAS NOT SUCH AN IMPORTANT MOVE LIKE THIS BROUGHT BEFORE THE COMMUNITY THAT IS EXPECTED TO SUPPORT THIS DECISION IN MAKING SUCH A MOVE PRIOR TO APPOINTING HER?
THESE ARE THE QUESTIONS, ISSUES AND CONCERNS THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ANSWERED AND PRESENTED TO THE MUSLIMS AND DONORS OF THIS COMMUNITY BY WALLACE II PRIOR TO JUST MOVING FORWARD AND EXPECTING THE COMMUNITY TO FOLLOW HIM BLINDLY. SO WE, THE RANK AND FILE MEMBERSHIP OF THIS COMMUNITY ARE FORCED TO ASK OURSELVES THE QUESTION: CAN WE JUST BLINDLY FOLLOW SOMEONE BECAUSE HIS NAME IS WALLACE MOHAMMED II? SHOULD WE SEND OUR MONEY INTO A SITUATION THAT HAS NO CLARITY OR LIGHT SHINING ON IT OR SHOULD WE WITHHOLD OUR SUPPORT AND MONEY UNTIL OR UNLESS MORE RESPONSIBILITY TOWARDS TRANSPARENCY AND OPENESS HAS BEEN GIVEN TO THE SITUATION THAT WALLACE IS ASKING THIS COMMUNITY TO SUPPORT.
IN OUR NEXT RELEASE, WE WILL ADDRESS THE QUESTION AS TO WHAT LEGITIMATCY IS THERE IN LAILA’S CLAIM THAT THE MOSQUE CARES BELONGS TO THE MOHAMMED FAMILY. CAN A NOT-FOR-PROFIT CHARITY BELONG TO A SINGLE FAMILY? WHAT DOES THE GOVERNMENT SAY ABOUT FAMILY MEMEBERS APPOINTING FAMILY MEMBERS TO THE BOARD OF A NOT-FOR-PROFIT CHARITY? AND WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF TWO SIGNATURES BEING REQUIRED TO CASH A COMMUNITY CHECK AND IS IT PROPER OR MORALLY RESPONSIBLE TO HAVE A HUSBAND AND WIFE BEING SIGNERS ON SUCH COMMUNITY CHECK? IS IT LEGAL TO PAY ALIMONY OR MARITAL SUPPORT TO A DIVORCED WIFE OUT OF THE TREASURE OF A RELIGIOUS COMMUNITY’S NOT-FOR-PROFIT CHARITY? THESE AND OTHER TECHNICAL ISSUES WILL BE DISCUSSED FOR THE PURPOSE OF KEEPING OUR COMMUNITY INFORMED AND TO BE ABLE TO MAKE AN INFORMED DECISION AS TO WHETHER WALLACE MOHAMMED II IS QUALIFIED TO BE PRESIDENT OF THE MOSQUE CARES TREASURY CONSIDERING THE STRANGE FRAME OF MIND HE PRESENTLY POSSESES.
