Is The Nation of Islam a Racist Cult?
Quoting Huma Ahmad at www.jannah.org, “(Islam and) the so called “Nation of Islam'” are two different religions. NOI is more of a political organization…Muslims consider this group to be just one of many cults using the name of Islam for their own gain…The Nation of Islam” is a misnomer; this religion should be called Farrakhanism, after the name of its propagator, Louis Farrakhan…For example, Farakhan followers believe in racism and that the ‘black man’ was the original man and therefore superior, while in Islam there is no racism and everyone is considered equal in the sight of God…the ‘Nation’s teachings have little to do with true Islam. There are many groups in America who claim to represent Islam and call their adherents Muslims…In America there are many pseudo-Islamic cults, Farrakhanism being one of them. An honest attitude on the part of such cults should be not to call themselves Muslims and their religion Islam…
