“In The Name of Allah, The Beneficent, The Merciful

To whom praise is due. We thank Him and we can never thank Him enough for His Prophets and the scriptures, which they brought. But if I live to be a thousand I could not thank Him enough for His intervention in our affairs in the Person of Master Fard Muhammad to whom praise is due forever and for His raising up in our midst His Messenger to us, the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad.

I greet all of you my dear brothers and sisters, distinguished platform dignitaries and our sister, Dr. Betty Shabazz, with the greeting words of peace. We say it in the Arabic language As-Salaam-Alaikum. But it means Peace Be Unto You.

To this wonderful body of brothers and sisters who made this night possible. To Haki Madhubuti and to Leonard Farrakhan Muhammad, Dr. Betty Shabazz, Mr. Percy Sutton, Mr. William Kuntsler, Congressman Charles Rangel, to the many who spoke to the leaders present, it is a great honor and privilege for me and for us to be here this evening at the world famous Apollo theater in celebration of the victory of God's intervention in our affairs.

We thank Him for His Guidance to us that caused us to see the snare and the trap in the evil machinations of those who attempted to ensnare and entrap the daughter of Malcolm X and Dr. Betty Shabazz.

We thank Allah for His Guidance to me and to us that He enabled to avoid an emotional response to the indictment of Sister Quibilah that could have exacerbated present tensions and created an atmosphere similar to that which was created 30 years ago--that additional harm might be done to the Shabazz family, to the Nation of Islam, and to Black people in general.

I am grateful to Allah (God) for this moment in time and I am forever in His debt for having guided us safely to this moment. I am grateful to Allah (God) for this victory of our unity over the wicked machinations of those in positions of power who fear our rise and the consequence of our unity. I am grateful to the government of the United States for releasing Sister Quibilah. And I am grateful to each and every one in this audience and in audiences across this nation whose hope is brightened and whose joy is heightened at the possibility of our reconciliation.

There is a Chinese proverb that says, "The journey of a 1,000 miles begins with one step." The loss of the sacred life of Malcolm X is comparable to a 1,000 mile journey and our efforts represent a first step in a long journey that we pray Allah (God) will bless to end with total reconciliation of us as members of one family, that as the Holy Qur'an teaches, that our latter days may be better than our former days.” Read more: https://buff.ly/2FpvTzC
