WE MUST DEPEND ON ALLAH AND OURSELVES
WE MUST DEPEND ON ALLAH AND OURSELVES
This extraordinary lecture from Muhammad Mosque No. 12 brings together three powerful voices of the Nation of Islam—Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad, Student Regional Minister Rodney Muhammad, and Imam Abdul Salaam Muhammad—for a deeply layered teaching on self-improvement, divine guidance, and community transformation.
Student In The Ministry Joseph Muhammad opens the program by grounding the audience in gratitude, discipline, and preparation. He emphasizes the mercy of Allah in sending divine guidance before destruction, the importance of order and security, and the necessity of mastering one’s emotions to rise into the “thinking of God.” Drawing from Study Guide 18, scripture, and science, he connects self-mastery to community development and outlines practical tools for spiritual and emotional balance.
Student Regional Minister Rodney Muhammad follows by illuminating the divine mission of the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad as the one sent to explain scripture after centuries of confusion. Through historical insight, scriptural clarity, and symbolic teaching, he reveals how light was deliberately kept from Black people—and how that light has now returned. His message centers on knowledge, identity, and the role of a true teacher in making the student independent and free.
Imam Abdul Salaam Muhammad delivers a wide-ranging, deeply reflective discourse on time, belief, discipline, and responsibility. Drawing from the Holy Qur’an, the Bible, and the teachings of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad and the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, he warns against spiritual and moral “bankruptcy” and calls for faith that produces real-world results. He challenges ritual without action, emphasizes perseverance and gratitude, and urges believers to move from instinct-driven living to upright, conscious humanity—making our communities decent and safe places to live.
Together, these three Ministers delivers a unified message of resurrection, responsibility, and renewal—calling each listener to transform self, serve others, and stand firmly in truth during a critical moment in time.
