John Nashid Focus on Issues

Quran, 2:190. Fight in the cause of Allah those who fight you, but do not transgress limits; for Allah loveth not transgressors. 191. And slay them wherever ye catch them, and turn them out from where they have Turned you out; for tumult and oppression are worse than slaughter; but fight them not at the Sacred Mosque, unless they (first) fight you there; but if they fight you, slay them. Such is the reward of those who suppress faith. 192. But if they cease, Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful. 193. And fight them on until there is no more Tumult or oppression, and there prevail justice and faith in Allah. but if they cease, Let there be no hostility except to those who practise oppression.

This program is dedicated to keeping our focus on Issues that are of concern to us all. Also addressing the need for a New Way of Thinking, a new perception, different from how we were programed to think by commerical media, and public education in the pass. When we find that most people we come in contact with have the same oppinion about world matters, both religious, and secular, then there's a problem, the problem being we are not using our God give free mind, we have been programed into a vacuum. Someone once said, "the mind is a terrible thing to waste", to waste on someone elses direction. If you believe in Allah (God) follow His guidance, in His Books, and His creation.....PEACE!

We will be talking about three battle that the Muslims had to fight against their oppressors who were trying to destroy Islam and the Prophet Mohammad, the Messager of Allah, after the Flight from Mecca to Madina. Prophet Muhammad was a peaceful man, he wanted peace for all, but if was Allah that commanded him in Revelation to Fight. 2:190, 2:191  The Three Battles and their signifigance. Badr, Adha, and The Battle of the Trench, also The Confederacy.

We will be talking about, Justice and Peace are one and the same. There has never been any Justice given to the African slaves, from 1619 to today, 2023, only the promise of Freedom to an empty broken people with no strings attached. They offered the slave freedom to be like the unjust master.

Ramadan is the ninth month of the Muslim calendar following the lunar calendar. The fast starts with the sighting of the new moon of Ramadan, fasting from sunrise to sunset, Ramadan ends with the sighting of the new moon, or thirty days. Ramadan is followed by a celebration called Eid El Fitr. Ramadan is mentioned in the Holy Qur'an 2:

We will be talking about the drug that enslaved young African Americans, Prison, and the politcal rhetoric that followed. The history of Al Islam in the Westchester County Jail, 1984 to 2021, Al Islam in the Human Rights Commision in the city of New Rochelle, NY.  2001-2006, and the Islamic radio broadcast of Imam Mohammed, WVOX, 1460 am radio, New Rochelle, NY 1990s

We will be giving an overview of the establishment of the foundation for the religion of Islam in Westchester County, NY Under the leadership of Imam W Deen Mohammed. Following the Quran, and the Traditions of Prophet Muhammad.

We will be talking about the creation and the many developments in the establishment of an Islamic community in  Westchester County NY, Mainly, Mt Vernon, and New Rochelle, NY, by African Americans from former slavery ancestory. The Nation of Islam in Mt Vernon, and Al- Islam proper in New Rodhelle. The early membership, differnt locations, and the many trials and hardships. From 1969 to present. And the indroduction of Al Islam into the Westchester County Jail. 1984. Allah, The Quran, Prophet Muhammad, Mosque or Masjid, Imam W Deen Mohammed Taken from my autobiography (life story): "In Black and White" By John J. Nashid

Our African American community started out in America as a community under slavery, separated from civiilzation.

Our African American community started out in America as a community under slavery, separated from civiilzation. A strong community produces a lasting establishment; education, business, families, culture, etc. Today we are still dependents of the former masters, we must become independent contributors, creating a new mind,and new leadership for the future.

In America there is knowledge for the people of understanding and symbols for those who lacks clear understanding. Quran, 96 Read in the Name of your Creator, Who Created, Created man, or the human mind from a small thing.

Without Justice in society, there will always be hostility. To have Peace, there Must be Justice.

The world as we have know today it is in its last stage of change. The human population is experiencing the most drastic changes in the history humankind. Crime, economics, housing, bussiness, drugs, prison, education, health care, religion, family etc. has all become commerialized into a big on line business of robbing from the poor to give to the wealthy. The leader of our Muslim community the America,the late Imam W Deen Mohammed had given us an assignment to Remake the World, by presenting Truth to combate Falsehood in the world. the responsibility that was placed on us all on the earth was the resopnsibilty to care for one another, to give charity, not to charge excessive intrest for big gains. Human live is gradully being taken over by big powerful corpation; international corparations. Divisons, like racism, class destintions, skin color,etc. are only distractions, created by the media owned and controled by big media. Unity is the key to our survivial, and trust in our Creator.

Discussing the Qur'ans responce to the Bibles story of a begotten son of God.The Qur'an being the final revelation of God or Allah corrects all prior scripture. Allah is The One and only God, He has no Partners, or associates, He is The Lord; The Creator of all things natural. When Allah decides to create anything, He only says, "Be and it is". Prophet Jesus, and Prophet Muhammad are both Prophets to mankind, Messengers, and servants of Allah. Although Muslims and Christians have differences, we are still people of the book, Brothers and Sisters in faith in the One God, we call Allah. Qur'an, 112  Bible, John 3:16

Lessons from: Adam, the first human community, Prophet Muhammad, the establishment of a model community for the good of all mankind, The African American, un-established in proper community life in American, 400 years after their enslavement in this land. The future: A New Africa in America, established by African American (Bilalians) "doing for self"... Solution: "Trust G-d, and follow His Guidance"

A breif history of a people who was stripped of their idenity; their Country, their Culture, Religion, and most important, their Name, and forced to take the name of their oppressors for 400 years. Who is this people today.. Whats in a Name? Your whole life.

New Mind Development, A Focus on Issuses of Concern, we have been off air for some time now, and on this program we would like to reindroduce ourselves,and from there on continue with our weekly 30 min. segments, to give a voice, on current issues of concern to us all.  

According to scripture God granted Satan a period of time to deceive Mankind with falsehood. (Holy Quran 2: 30-39) and at the end of that time God sent His last Prophet, Prophet Muhammad, Prayers and Peace be upon him, to reveal God's Truth, which will defeat falsehood and give Mankind a New Mind Perception of God's reality, and peace on Earth. Satan schemes a plans and God schemes a plan, and God is the best of planners. The New World Order in reality is the New World Order of God, for the good of Humankind. Imam WD Mohammed: "New World Order Under God's Purpose",,, March,8, 2003

The teaching of the Nation of Islam was for the purpose of raising the Black; African American people from the grave of ignorants; from the mentally dead state of mind they were reduced to after being enslaved in America for 400 years; physically amd mentally. This teaching and training received in the National of Islam, prepared it's unprepared but sincere followers with culture and refinement; obedience and respect, which was necessary to truly accept True Islam. Al-Islam is Fitrah, or in agreement with the nature that all of mankind was created in by their Creator; the natural human being. Al-Islam is a way of life in agreement with the order of nature in the universe. For all of the children of Adam, who were deceived out of their true nature, and made uncivilized, Al-Islam is The Way back to Civilization and our true nature, and Peace on Earth. Satan's plan was to turn the Human Family into a bunch of savages, and this could only be accomplished when the people are robbed of the knowledge of self. Was Satan successful or not? Look at the state of the World today, you tell me. Holy Qur'an, Behold, your Lord (Creator) said to the angles: "I will create a vicegerent (a ruler) on earth". A vicegerent or kalifah represents the whole of the human family, in their true human form, serving the will of God.

Imam W Deen Mohammed: A servant of Allah (God), the son of Elijah and Clara Muhammad, raised in the city of Chicago, a special child on a divine mission, to return mankind back to it's origin; to it's original nature, by slaying the Devil of darkness who ruled over humankind by deceit, with the light of God's Truth and understanding. Imam Mohammed never accepted any god, except Allah. He is responsible, with Allah's (G-d's) help, for transistioning the Nation Of Islam and the lanugage of Mr. Fard Muhammad to Al-Islam, proper, The word of Allah; The Qur'an, the model example of Prophet Mohammad, and his clear lanugage of truth and the blessing of understanding. Although Imam Mohammed returned to Allah in 2008, he is very much alive today, alive in his 33 years of dedicated work and sacrifice on this Earth for the good of all. May Allah bless his soul.

I read an article last week in, "The Daily Beast",  "ISIS Targets American Imams For Believing Muslims Can Thrive In U.S." They also threatened two American Muslim Politicians, they consider them to be apostates, worse than Disbelievers. Do they represent the teachings of Islam; the will of God and the model example of Muhammad our Prophet, or do they act out of their misunderstanding of Islam. The mission of Prophet Muhammad from Allah (God) was to invite (all people) to the way of Al-Islam or The Submission to God, their original nature, with wisdom and beautiful teachings. The mission of Prophet Muhammad is the mission of all Muslims. Prophet Muhammad is a mercy to Mankind. Who are the believers? Read..... Holy Qur'an 2:62  

Charity is a responsibility on all who have means, to care for those in need, who can't provide for themselves. Althose the hand that gives is better than the hand that receives, your giving may cause the receiver of your gift to one day become a giver. Today Charity is misused, for the wrong purpose, corruption and outright "stealing in the name of god". We live in a society where one percent; 1% of the people control 99% of the wealth. A Plutocracy, is a Government powered by the wealthy Billionairs, who control the wealth of the people. Religion is for God.

In the Western World today especially in American very little is known about the truth of the religion of Islam or Al-Islam and it's over one billion followers worldwide Prophet Muhammad: "Verily, a man has performed prayers, fasts, charity, pilgrimage and all other good works; but he will not be rewarded except by the proportion of his understanding." (Knowledge, Wisdom, Understanding) Prophet Muhammad: "Prayer is the miraj (union with, or annihilation in, the Divine Essence by means of continual upward progress) of the Faithful. "Action Speaks lower that Words" Holy Qur'an 2:

In the Western World today especially in American very little is known about the truth of the religion of Islam or Al-Islam and it's over one billion followers worldwide. Prophet Muhammad: "Verily, a man has performed prayers, fasts, charity, pilgrimage and all other good works; but he will not be rewarded except by the proportion of his understanding." (Knowledge, Wisdom, and then Understanding) How do you ascertain (or make certain of) the purity of a religion? By the principles of action carried into action. Principles of action in Al-Islam: Prayer, Charity, Fasting, Pilgrimage....... Faith is Believe, supported by action.

 A Message of Concern  By Imam W. Deen Mohammed What would happen if people would sit in churches throughout the world for centuries with the image of an African American man as savior of the worid before them? What would this do to the mind of the world's children? What would happen to the world's children put under a figure of a particular race presented, pitiable, and in pain "the Savior of all men"? Qur'an, Surah 3, verse 64: "Say, Oh people of the book! Come to common terms as between us and you: that we worship none but G-d, that we Associate no partner with Him, that we erect not from among ourselves lords and patrons other than G-d. If then they turn back, say ye "bear witness that we (at least) are Muslims (bowing to G-d's Will)". Civilized nations should want that their religions be also civilized. False worship is the worst form of oppression. We are no gods. We are only men, "mortals from the mortals,He   Allah created" (Qur'an) Visit a Masjid or Islamic Center in your area

African Americans in American History Divide and Conquer has long been a stategy among the powerful of the world to gain dominance over the weak, for political, social and economic supremacy. On this program we will continue on the topic of the pass two programs, titled: Police Brutality, "Black Man and Psycological Effects of America", which is holding American back from all that it can be. Willie Lynch Letter:  "In my bag, I have a fool proof method for controlling your slaves. I guarantee everyone of you that if installed it will control the slaves for at least three hundred years. My method is simple, any member of your family or any OVERSEER can use it.I have outlined a number of differences among the slaves, and I take these differences and make them bigger. I use FEAR, DISTRUST, and ENVY for control purposes." Some historians claim that the LETTER is a hoax, because they say they could not find evidents of a Willie Lynch in 1712, in America or England. REAL or FALSE, the proof is in the reality of the content of the letter, documented in the real history of the Black African Slave in American, from 1619 to 2015, 300 years plus. "Beware of the smart crooked deceivers who will always try to pull one over on you", to maintain the status quo. The time is now, to start using our own G-d given common sense and follow the logic in our studies to it's logical conclusion.      

American History Month This program will include a discussion on the effect slavery had on the psyche of America, from 1619 to 1865 and Jim Crow; separation until 1965 and the effect it is still having presently in the year 2015 on the children of slaves (Blacks) and the children of the slave masters and overseers (Whites) in this race conscious American society. Racism has distroyed America's dream of Freedom, Justice and Equality for all of it's people, by using old plantation tactics in these modern times, creating a servant, master society. Like the overseer and the slave in the days of old. Law enforcement was designed as a service to the people, to protect life and property of all American's, paid from the people's taxes, today law enforcement has become a servant of those in authority, the rich, the powerful. Their actions appear to be more military than their intended purpose. Althought we know that all Police and others in authority are not the bad guy, but in the people's eye the bad spoils it for the good, therefore the good have a responsibility to correct the bad, the same is true among the people. We can no longer allow police brutality within the police department. The bad image is bad for the department as well as the mistrust of the citizens. What is the solution for the oppressed Black man in America? Protesting, A Black President, Education, Jobs, Housing, etc. or a new sense of independence and true faith in God ... I choose the latter.

The month of Ramadan, the 9th month of the muslim calendar is the month the Holy Qur'an was reveal to Prophet Muhammad through the Angle Jabril,1435 years ago. Revealed as Revelation from G-d, The Lord; Creator of mankind, for the guidance of mankind. To receive the guidance of G-d's word, once must learn to restraint their desires (Nafs) The three development of the human soul. The soul prone to or having a tendency to sin, the soul that is conscience of G-d, and the soul that has become free for G-d. Holy Qur'an, Surah (Chapter) 2: 183. O ye who believe! Fasting is prescribed to you as it was prescribed to those before you, that ye may (learn) self-restraint,- 185. Ramadhan is the (month) in which was sent down the Qur'an, as a guide to mankind, also clear (Signs) for guidance and judgment (Between right and wrong). So every one of you who is present (at his home) during that month should spend it in fasting, but if any one is ill, or on a journey, the prescribed period (Should be made up) by days later. Allah intends every facility for you; He does not want to put to difficulties. (He wants you) to complete the prescribed period, and to glorify Him in that He has guided you; and perchance ye shall be grateful.

"Use your strenth against your weakness" "And Allah says (4: 76) and fight the schemes of Satan for surely his schemes are weak. And why are they so weak?  Because those schemes are dependant upon human weaknesses and if human beings would just use their strength against those schemes, they got the stronger part of themselves against the weaker part. So, all we have to do is come with our strength against our weaknesses. So, ultimately who is the fight between?  The fight is between my Muslim position and that in me that threatens that Muslim position.  My fight is with myself.  And if I bring my strength against my weaknesses, I can overcome.” Imam W. Deen Mohammed “Islam Prophecy & Today’s World” Masjid Bilal Cleveland, Ohio February 1, 1998 Today the power of satan is in; intoxicants, gambling, weak religious leaders, falsehood, diversity, lust, perverted sex, separation and divorce, broken family life, cruelty and hate etc. The solution:" Use your strenth against your weakness". Fight the schemes of satan.  john nashid

Heaven is a state of exsistance that all of mankind should be striving to attain in this life. Father Adam (mankind) was created from lowly physical dust and over time evoled out of that state of spiritual darkness or level of incompleteness into his highest excellence, the spiritual light of understanding and obedience to The One God represented in Father Ibrahim. Prophet Muhammad's journey to heaven by way of seven levels of development for the human soul is demonstrated in the examples of seven Prophets, the progression of mankind through seven steps of understanding, to his spiritual destiny for his work of service to the whole of mankind on Earth. Prophet Muhammad, the completed Adam (Man) was in heaven but his work was here on Earth. Praise be to G-d. Imam W Deen Mohammed's insight into the wisdom of the seven steps.

Father means being a leader; a model for his child to copy to advance their life. A father's responsibilty goes far beyond being a sperm donor, a father's true responsibilty is to be a protector and provider, a good example to further the life of his children in a good way. In the history of African slaves in America from 1619 to 1865 and beyond, the father was stolen from his children, his ability to be the protector and provider and a model of excellence for his family was taken from him. The master knew that strong fathers would only produce strong families which would be counter productive. How do you make a "Fatherless Child"? You do so by destroying the childs respect for his father; by reducing him below the level of a responsible man, incapable of being the protector and provider, and then take over his responsibilty and become the childs protector and provider. In time although you may still love your father, you will loss respect for him. Adam was called Father Adam, the leader of physical man created from dust and Abraham was called Father Abraham, the leader of mans spiritual development. Today satans workers are continuing his work of deceite, destorying the African American fathers image and turning his children into puppets for their $$$ benefit. Drug dealing, gang families, haters of self, baby daddys, prison, murders of self, no stability. The solution: To be discussed.
