Everybody Needs Somebody: A Tribute to Akbar Muhammad
“I woke up maybe two weeks or so ago weeping. But, I was thinking about Brother Akbar and in the middle of the night, it was as though Allah was showing me the extreme value of my brother.
And, the way the God brought it to me, He put by my side a “Recording Angel” that I would never write about me because I never thought that I was that important. I lived my life in the shadow of greatness. Never, ever believing that I was, in fact, great. But God put by my side a Recording Angel who saw value in me that I did not see in myself.
So, he recorded what I said. He recorded what I did. He kept the songs that I made and threw away, Brother Akbar had a copy. I thought tonight I had to be here to say to his family, to say to his friends, and to say to my family and my friends, that everybody needs somebody—somebody that loves you literally unconditionally because they see the value in you that you don’t see in yourself.”—THE HONORABLE MINISTER @LOUISFARRAKHAN

There is a difference between to being a mercy to people in their struggle and allowing their struggle to slowly become our standard. BE MINDFUL of how much you expose yourself to influences opposing your goals. @nisaislam#TheUmmahReflects#Ramadan2026#Day28
We have to be conscious about the companions we choose today in the digital world as well. We are shaped by the people we are around over time. @nisaislam#TheUmmahReflects#Day28
Imam Qasim Amin Nathari (@QAminNathari) used Surah 3:103a "And hold fast by the covenant of Allah all together and be not disunited" to stress after #Ramadan2026 a continued unity between the communities on the Nation of Islam and W.D. Muhammad. #TheUmmahReflects#Day28
The dinner table used to be sacred - a place of family gathering, not just to eat, but to talk about what mattered, pray to form the children who would carry their community forward. @nisaislam#FastFactOfTheDay#TheUmmahReflects#Day26
"WE CAN DO MORE TO SERVE OUR PEOPLE - NOW"
- Can we even hear Allah Speaking to us right now? or Are
lives to loud that He (Allah) can't get through?
- Think about how many times you touch it vs your Holy
Quran.

If we call to Allah and do Good, Brothers & Sisters, we can turn someone in whom we have enmity into a warm friend. This is how we make or community a safe place to live.
@DrAbdulHaleemM1#TheUmmahReflects#Ramadan2026#Day26
Allah Loves the doers of good
Allah Loves the steadfast, Allah does not Love the unfaithful
We cannot make our community a decent place to live if we do not Love what Allah Loves and Hate what Allah Hates
