May Allah reward you @joebradford. The paradigm however is incorrect. Heraclius was a Byzantine ruler of the Eastern Orthodox Church. Elijah Muhammad on the other hand was a Baatini cult leader who promoted himself from Chief Minister to Messenger of Allah. #NOIcontradictions

This indeed is the error made when viewing the #NOI and it's offshoots: instead of seeing them as heretical Baatinis with more in common with Musailima, many see them as simple albeit, sinful Muslims. Yet sinful Muslims do not declare prophethood on one day & Godhood the next!

Moreover, there is no evidence to this day that Elijah Muhammad or his common law girlfriend Clara ever renounced the prophetic claims he made for over 40 years. His own nephew Sultan Muhammad Sr, declared publicly in 1990 that both Elijah & Clara died unrepentant with no shahada

Likewise, it is well known that Elijah himself authorized the assassination of the greatest martyr in American Muslim history, #MalcolmX. Zaytuna sponsoring historical revision in lionizing a philandering, false prophet murderer is an applauding affront to every Muslim on Earth.

Legitimizing the #NOI via historical amnesia, is calling to evil in a way that people will accept over time and adapt to. In the same way as those who become accustomed to the stench of a rotting corpse, over time will not notice it. #NationOfIslamIsNotIslam #ElijahAndFardMustGo

Another matter that is just as important: just as Elijah was a Baatini like the Qadianis, so was his son & successor, #WDMohammed. There is no evidence to this day that WD ever rejected his NOI aqeedah or his own claims of Godhood when he took over in 1975. No. Evidence. At. All.

Thus the #ZaytunaNOI conference must be seen for what it really is: a brazen smoke and mirrors attempt at exploiting public historical amnesia, so as to give legitimacy to racist, heretical, Baatini #NOI idols as the "pioneers of mainstream Islam." #Dontbefooled
