Charity Begins at Home and Spreads Abroad

* CHARITY BEGINS AT HOME AND SPREADS ABROAD*

_ January 17, 2012_

In reading the January 13th edition of Muslim Journal I was shocked to see on page 3 the bold headline of the national political educational organization established under the leadership of Imam W. D. Mohammed stating “AMERICAN COALITION FOR GOOD GOVERNMENT CALLS FOR ECONOMIC SANCTIONS AGAINST SYRIA”. As I read further this article called for the intervention of the United States Government: The immediate stepping down of the Syrian President, the withdrawing of our ambassador and the expelling of the Syrian Government and for the U. S. to work unilaterally with our allied nations to apply economic sanctions on the Syrian Government until the Syrian Government elects new representation.

One of the problems as I see it with this kind of local reaction to a foreign sovereign nation is that Syria is nearly 9000 miles away from our nearest shore and we have no independent knowledge as to what precipitated this situation in Syria or what has continued to make it fester other than what we are told by the Western press and its sources. The same press told us

We are still working to locate and get access to the Group Volume Buy records to make sure that everyone who has an account balance with Group Volume Buy is contacted. We will keep you updated as to our progress.

My father, Muhammad Siddeeq, spoke to the Convener of Imams, Imam Bashir Ali, regarding the concerns of the CPC, L.L.C. investors and Group Volume Buy account holders that were to be brought up at the Imams’ meeting in Washington, D.C. this past December. He said, that Imam Bashir Ali, “assured [him] that he called this concern to the attention of the Imams in D.C. and that [the imams] would have further discussion on these concerns in [their] next Midwest conference call in the early part of January”. Insha-Allah, we will report any new developments from this upcoming conference call.

Faith, patience and perseverance, that is the only way to achieve our goals.

Sincerely,

Sister Khadijah Siddeeq-Mohammed

What Should Be This Community's Number One Priority?

WHAT SHOULD BE THIS COMMUNITY’S NUMBER ONE PRIORITY?

I believe it was in the mid sixties when a brother came to the home of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad and was trying to get him to give him a name for his fish business that he was preparing to open up in his city. The brother shared with Mr. Muhammad some of the names he was considering such as El this and El that with Arabic roots and he asked the Honorable Elijah Muhammad what he thought. The honorable Elijah Muhammad just looked across the table at the brother and said, “Why not call it “Fish Market” brother?” He then went on with the business at hand for the rest of his guests. I cite this incident to make the point that while many people have a tendency to beat around the bush dealing with unessentials, men with vision and a purpose go directly to the point and do not waste precious time on triviality or unimportant concerns.

In my opinion it is the focusing on things that did not have a high priority under the leadership

One year ago today I wrote an article questioning the unacceptable DECIETFUL tactics of the Muslim Journal’s use of big name celebrities to honor, in the hope of increasing the sales of its tickets to their annual “Time to be Grateful banquet”. At that time I also questioned the partnership of the Journal and fight promoter Murad Muhammad and admonished them that the two could not co-exist without one taking on the identity of the other which was not compatible. It has now been one year since the writing of said article and for some strange reason, Murad Muhammad who appeared to have his name and or picture in every edition of the Journal for the last few years has all but disappeared with no explanation from the editor of the journal; and left behind are some disgruntled abused believers who were encouraged by the journal implicitly to invest large sums of money into strategies allegedly advanced by Murad with the blessings of

Group Volume Buy December 2011 Update

Another development of interest: Concerns of the CPC, L.L.C. and Group Volume Buy Investors/Purchasers will be on the agenda at the upcoming Imam conveners' meeting

It has always been our hope that the concerns that we are working to resolve will make their way into the community consciousness. There is only so much a few people can do. To really, thoroughly address the issues relating to CPC, L.L.C. and Group Volume Buy, the believers in every masjid and city that follows the leadership of Imam Mohammed will have to take a vested interest in what we have termed "Making Imam Mohammed's word bond". This means that we recognize that we are obligated by the life in our bodies to carry out the mission and vision that our leader left with us. We shouldn't put our interest in our own new

On Sept. 16, AM 360 executive producer Thomas Abul-Salaam conducted a three-hour interview with Laila Muhammad, the oldest daughter of Imam W. Deen Mohammed. It was the first time she addressed a national audience regarding the Probate Court case, her father’s marital status and other related issues. This is an abridged transcription of the interview which means it has been edited, condensed and transposed for publication. I apologize if any individual's name is misspelled. Please email me the correct spellings. My intention in transcribing the interview is twofold: to document Laila Muhammad's account of the events that occurred immediately after IWDM's passing and to provide a permanent record of her views on the causes and consequences of the court case. I pray that it meets these objectives.

AM 360: With the Imam's passing on Sept. 9, 2008, there was no legal will
