"His Preaching is a Bearing of Witness to Me"

“I want you to remember, today, I have one of my greatest preachers here... Why are you hiding behind the sycamore tree for brother? (He laughs)  Come on around here where they can see you! (A rousing round of applause ensued). ”

“We have with us today,” Mr. Muhammad continued, “our great national preacher. The preacher who don’t mind going into Harlem, New York, one of the most worst towns in our nation or cities. It is our brother in Detroit and Chicago or New York. But, I want you to remember every week he’s on the air helping me to reach those people that I can’t get out of my house and go reach them like he.

“I want you to pay good attention to his preaching. His preaching is a bearing of witness to me and what GOD has given to me,” he declared. “This is one of the strongest national preachers that I have in the bounds of North America. Everywhere you hear him, listen to him. Everywhere you see him, look at him. Everywhere he advises you to go, go. Everywhere he advises you to stay from, stay from. For we are thankful to Allah for this great helper of mine, Minister Farrakhan.” (Another rousing round of applause ensued).          

“He’s not a proud man,” he said. “He’s a very humble man. If he can carry you across the lake without dropping you in; he don’t say when you get on the other side, ‘You see what I have done?’ He tells you, ‘You see what Allah has done.’ He doesn’t take it upon himself. He’s a mighty fine preacher. We hear him every week, and I say continue to hear our Minister Farrakhan...

“He's not a proud man. He's a very humble man. If he can carry you across the lake without dropping you in, he doesn't say when he gets across on the other side, 'See what I have done?' He tell you, 'See what Allah has done?' He doesn't take it upon himself. He's a might fine preacher. We hear him every week and I say, continue to hear our Minister Farrakhan. ”

“And my Brother, Aaron, he is more eloquent in speech than I, so send him with me as a helper to confirm me. Surely I fear that they would reject me. He said: We will strengthen thine arm with thy Brother, and We will give you both an authority, so that they shall not reach you. With Our signs, you two and those who follow you, will triumph."

            -Holy Qur’an; 28:34 & 35

"I met a man who taught me and I am not the same old 'Negro' I once was. I am a man now with healing in my wings and yet I am a student of another man... We have got to give credit where credit is due. I met a man and that man is a doctor. He doctored on me, so that I could doctor on you. That man is (The Hon.) Elijah Muhammad."

            -The Hon. Minister Farrakhan (Saviours' Day, October 9, 1993)

"What Allah has revealed to me is a base for building a Universal Knowledge.

It has not become Universal or we would not be preaching. It is to become Universal."
