MOORISH HOLY TEMPLE OF SCIENCE OF THE WORLD

MOORISH HISTORICAL ORIGINS AND MYSTICAL CONNECTIONS

Paschal Beverly Randolph

Paschal Beverly Randolph [October 8, 1825– July 29, 1875]. According to Herald’s
College of England, Dr. Randolph's mother was of Moorish
descent. According to A.E. Waite, establishing the earliest known Rosicrucian
order in the United States. Paschal Beverly Randolph was an American medical
doctor, occultist and writer. He visited England, Scotland, Ireland, France, Malta,
Egypt, Arabia, Syria, Palestine, Turkey and Greece. "Randolph introduced the
principles of sex magic (Tantra Yoga) to North America. Two twentieth century
occultists and practitioners of sex magic, Theodor Reuss of Germany and Aleister
Crowley of Great Britain, were heavily influenced by Randolph in both
organizing the Ordo Templi Orientis (O.T.O.) and in their sex magic rituals. He
was also a teacher of Helena P. Blavatsky. She referred to him as “Morya”, one
of the “Ascended Master.” Randolph, who traveled to Europe in 1854, and he
met occult magician Éliphas Lévi. In Paris, Yarker met Pascal Beverly
Randolph, he was initiated by a secret priestess of the Ismaili Muslims. Yarker
passed on the tradition of the Hermetic Brotherhood of Luxor, which was reborn
as the Hermetic Brotherhood of Light, a continuation of the Frates Lucis or
Asiatic Brethren. In 1858 the Supreme Grand Dome met in Paris. The Conclave
was opened by the Supreme Grand Master Eliphas Levi. In due order, at the
behest of the Supreme Hierarch, gave up his seat as Supreme Grand Master of
the Supreme Grand Dome(4), and Randolph was inducted before the Altar of the
Three Fleur de Lis, and took the oath of both L’Ordre du Lis and as a Supreme
Grand Master of the Supreme Grand Dome. After taking his seat, the Grand
Ritual was performed, he stepped down from the chair, handed the Wand to
Count Guinotti, who proceeded to recall Supreme Grand Master Levi to his seat
and the proper officers proceeded to Initiate Dr. Randolph into his office as
Supreme Grand Master of the Fraternitas Rosæ Crucis for the Western World
[North, Central and South America] and the Isles of the Sea.

Sayyid Jamāl-al-Dīn al-Afghānī ud Din Bey Effendi  

Sayyid Jamāl-al-Dīn al-Afghānī ud Din Bey Effendi [1838-1897]. He was a Pan-
Islamist, a Master Adept, a Sufi scholar and teacher, a Muslim politician and a
journalist. He founded a Masonic lodge, the Eastern Star. In Egypt during the mid
1800s Madame Blavatsky  met and was taught by Jamal ad-Din al-Afghan, who
she refers to a “Serapis Bey” one of the “Secret Chiefs”, or “Ascended Masters”,
(others were "Morya” [Paschal Beverly Randolph], “Tuitit Bey,”
“Koot Hoomi” and“Hilarion”, all pseudonyms, who purportedly belonged to the
"The Asiastic Brethren" or "The Hermetic Brotherhood of Luxor," who were
aiding humanity to evolve into a race of supermen. The Master Adept Jamal ad-
Din al-Afghani turned up in America around the winter of 1882-1883. Al-Afghani
is said to have been joined by his disciple chief initiate, Mohammed Abduh. the
two missionaries had come to the united States to propagate the doctrine of
ancestral and cultural pride under the banner of Pan Islam, which  is meant to
insure that the divine teaching of the ancestors are not forgotten among the
Moors of North America (Amexem). It is said the Moorish National
Divine Movement was founded on these teachings (Sufism) by Prophet noble
Drew Ali. Eliza Turner and John Drew Quitman studied under Jamal al-Afghani,
who were the parents of the man who would one day establish (M.H.T.S.)
Moorish Holy Temple of Science / (M.S.T.A.) Moorish Science Temple of America
and etc... At the hand of Jamal al-Afghani,the Drew family was inducted into the
"sacred order", known as "The Asiastic Brethren" or "The Brethen of Purity"
brotherhood or "The Hermetic Brotherhood of Luxor." In his early teenage years
of Timothy Drew traveled to Egypt and study among the great "neophytes," of
Jamal al-Afghani and Muhammad Abduh. while at Alzhar University, Drew Ali
came under the influence of Mohammed Rashid Ridi (1865-1935) and Aziz al-
Masri Bey(1878-1965), as well as the great egyptian nationalist Duse Mohamed
Ali-Effendi (1866-1945) who lived in London, England at the time. Drew Ali is said
to have studied at the old Ethiopian College in Vatican City (Rome, Italy) (read
more below).

Madame Blavatsky
Madame Blavatsky (1831-1891) In Egypt during the mid 1800s Madame
Blavatsky studied Sufism, Coptic Christianity, and the Druze order which she
described as “a last survival of archaic wisdom.”
Claiming to be a student of her Master “Serapis Bey,” while in Cairo Madame
Blavatsky met Jamal ad-Din al-Afghani, an outstanding Muslim thinker, radical
political leader and Sufi teacher. After
writing monumental works such as "ISIS UNVEILED", and "THE SECRET
DOCTRINE", the Theosophical Society was formed in 1875. Among the early
members was also Rudolph Steiner, founder of the Anthrosophical
Society, Albert Pike 33rd degree Mason and Manly P. Hall, a leading Masonic
historian and founder of the Philosophical Society.

Annie Besant

Annie Besant (1 October 1847 – 20 September 1933), in 1907 she became

President of the Theosophical Society. She was a women's rights activist,
a writer and an orator and a Woman Freemason, iniated into known now as The
International Order of Co-Free
masonry, Le Droit Humain. She became the Most Puissant Grand Commander.In
1909, Leadbeater "discovered" fourteen-year-old Jiddu Krishnamurti (1895–
1986), and declared him the probable "vehicle" for the expected World Teacher.
In 1929, Krishnamurti, grown disenchanted with the World Teacher Project,
repudiated the role that many Theosophists expected him to fulfil. He dissolved
the Order of the Star in the East, an organization founded to assist the World
Teacher in his mission, and eventually left the Theosophical Society.

Muhammad Abduh

Muhammad Abduh - (Nile Delta, 1849 – Alexandria, July 11, 1905) was an
Egyptian jurist, religious scholar and liberal reformer, regarded as the founder of
Islamic Modernism. A book titled "ISLAM AND LIBERTY" regarded Muhammad
Abduh as the founder of the so-called Neo-Mutazilism. He was educated by a
private tutor and a reciter of the Quran. When he turned thirteen he was sent to
the Aḥmadī mosque which was one of the largest educational institutions in
Egypt. He enrolled at al-Azhar in 1866. Abduh studied logic, philosophy and
mysticism at the Al-Azhar University in Cairo. He was a student of Jamal al-Din al-
Afghani, a philosopher and religious reformer who advocated Pan-Islamism to
resist European colonialism. Under al-Afghani's influence, Abduh combined
journalism, politics, and his own fascination in mystic spirituality. Al-Afghani
taught Abduh about the problems of Egypt and the Islamic world and about the
technological achievements of the west. In 1877, Abduh was granted the degree
of Alim and he started to teach logic, theology and ethics at al-Azhar. He was
appointed professor of history at Cairo's teachers' training college Dār al-ʿUlūm
in 1878. He was also appointed to teach Arabic at the Khedivial School of
Languages. According to Abduh, a teacher’s role was to direct men towards
study. He believed that Islam encouraged men to detach from the world of their
ancestors and that Islam reproved the slavish imitation of tradition. He
said that the two greatest possessions relating to religion that man was graced
with were independence of will and independence of thought and opinion. It
was with the help of these tools that he could attain happiness. He believed
that the growth of western civilization in Europe was based on these two
principles. He thought that Europeans were roused to act after a  large number
of them were able to exercise their choice and to seek out  facts with their
minds. Abduh was appointed editor and chief of al-Waqāʾiʿ al-Miṣriyya, the
official newspaper of the state. He believed that education was the best way to
achieve this goal. He was in favor of a good religious education which would
strengthen a child’s morals and a scientific education which would nurture a
child’s ability to reason. In his articles he criticized corruption, superstition, and
the luxurious lives of the rich. He was exiled from Egypt in 1882 for six years, for
supporting the Urabi Revolt. He had stated that every society should be allowed
to choose a suitable form of government based on its history and its present
circumstances. Later that year (1882-1883), he joined his teacher Jamal al
Afghani in the United States. Abduh often quoted, "I went to the West and saw
Islam, but no Muslims; I got back to the East and saw Muslims, but not Islam."
Abduh spent several years in Lebanon where he helped establish an
Islamic educational system. In 1884 he moved to Paris, France where he joined
al-Afghani in publishing "THE FIRMEST BOND" (al-Urwah al-Wuthqa), an
Islamic revolutionary journal that promoted anti-British views. Abduh also
visited Britain and discussed the state of Egypt and Sudan with high-ranking
officials. In 1885, he returned to Beirut and was surrounded by scholars from
different religious backgrounds. During his stay there he dedicated his efforts
toward furthering respect and friendship between Islam, Christianity and
Judaism. When he returned to Egypt in 1888, Abduh began his legal career. He
was appointed judge in the Courts of First Instance of the Native Tribunals and
in 1890, he became a consultative member of the Court of Appeal. In 1899, he
was appointed Mufti of Egypt and he held this position until he died. While he
was in Egypt, Abduh founded a religious society, became president of a society
for the revival of Arab sciences and worked towards reforming al-Azhar by
putting forth proposals to improve examinations, the curriculum and the
working conditions for both professors and students. He travelled a great deal
and met with European scholars in Cambridge and Oxford. He studied French law
and read a great many European and Arab works in the libraries of Vienna
and Berlin. The conclusions he drew from his travels were that Muslims suffer
from ignorance about their own religion and the despotism of unjust rulers. He
believed in a form of Islam that would liberate men from enslavement, provide
equal rights for all human beings, abolish the religious scholar’s monopoly on
exegesis and abolish racial discrimination and religious compulsion. Muhammad
Abduh died on 11 July 1905. People from all around the world sent their
condolences.

Muhammad Rashid Rida 

Muhammad Rashid Rida  -  Ottoman Syria, 23 September 1865–Egypt, 22 August
1935) is said to have been "one of the most influential scholars and jurists of his
generation" and the "most prominent disciple of Muhammad Abduh" Rida was
born near Tripoli in Al-Qalamoun, now in Lebanon but then part of Ottoman
Syria within the Ottoman Empire). He attended the National Islamic School in
Tripoli, founded by Shaykh Husayn al-Jisr (1845-1909). The curriculum offered
both traditional subjects normally studied by the 'ulama' and some modern
subjects like European languages and mathematics. In 1884-5 he was first
exposed to al-`Urwa al-wuthqa, the journal of the Jamal al-Din al-
Afghani and Muhammad Abduh. In 1897 he left Syria for Cairo to collaborate
with Abduh and the following year they launched al-Manar, a weekly and then
monthly journal comprising Quranic commentary at which Rida worked until his
death in 1935. Rida's desire to reform religious practices of his time found
expression when he joined the Naqshbandiyyah sufi  order and decided to study
with the pan- Islamist thinker Jamal ud-Din  al-Afghani. Upon al-Afghani's death, 
Rida went to Cairo to study with the al-Afghani's most eminent student,
Muhammad  `Abduh. `Abduh's father was the headman of a village in the
Egyptian delta, and had sent his son to study at al-Azhar in 1896.

Aziz Ali al-Masri Bey

Aziz Ali al-Masri Bey (1879-1965),was the co-founder of Al-gahtaniyya

and al-‘ahd (The Covenant). Egyptian officer and Arab nationalist politician. Born
in Cairo, of mixed Arab and Circassian parentage, Aziz Ali al-Masri Bey was
trained at the Istanbul Military Academy and was commissioned as an Ottoman
army officer in 1901. He joined the Committee for Union and Progress (CUP)
(Young Turks), but after the Young Turks seized power in 1908, he turned against
the organization and became an Arab nationalist. It is often alleged that Masri's
change of heart occurred because of a personal quarrel  that erupted between
him and CUP leader Enver while both were serving in the  Ottoman army during
the Libyan war. Misri formed secret Arab societies called  al-Qahtaniyya in 1909
and al-AHD (Covenant) in 1913. He was arrested by the  Ottoman government,
tried for treason, and condemned to death, but the Turks let  him go to Egypt
instead. When the Arab  Revolt broke out in 1916, he served  briefly as Sharif
Husayn's chief of staff. After World War I, he joined several Egyptian fringe
groups committed to Arab nationalism. He directed the Cairo  Police Academy
from 1927 to 1936 and was inspector general of the Egyptian army  in 1938. In
1939, Premier Ali Mahir named him chief of staff, but he was  dismissed from
that post in 1940 at Britain's insistence. He deserted the  Egyptian army and tried
to reach the Axis forces in the Libyan  desert but was caught and court-
martialed in 1941. After Aziz Ali had helped  the Free Officers prepare for the
revolution of 1952, they named him ambassador  to Moscow in 1953 and
considered making him president in place of Muhammad Naguib, but he retired
in 1954. Fiercely nationalistic, Aziz Ali al Masri Bey was hampered  in his career
by his political idealism, which got the better of his  discretion.
Jamal al-Afghani taught the family of Prophet Noble Drew Ali.
The family of Timothy Drew were members of the "Moorish Zionist Temple" in
Brooklyn, New York, which was formed in 1889 (some books date its formation
in 1899), by Rabbi Leon Richelieu. The Congregation of the Moorish Zionist
Temple of the Moorish Jews in Harlem c.1929, Rabbi Israel Ben Newman wearing
shawl, President Mordecai Herman on his right. Rabbi Mordecai Herman, a
member of Marcus Garvey's Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA).

Rabbi Arnold J. Ford
Rabbi Arnold J. Ford (23 Apr. 1877-16 Sept. 1935), black nationalist, who became
the musical director of the Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA) in
1917. He was a member in the Scottish Rite Masons, where he served as Master
of the Memmon Lodge. Ford and Benjamin E. Burrell composed a song  called
“Ethiopia,” which speaks of a halcyon past before slavery and stresses  pride in
African heritage—two themes that were becoming immensely popular. Ford 
was thus prominently situated among those Muslim and Christian clergy,
including George Alexander McGuire, Chaplain-General of the UNIA, who were
each trying to influence the religious direction of the organization. Ford and E.L.
Gaines wrote the handbook of rules  and regulation for the paramilitary African
Legion (which was modeled after the  Zionist Jewish Legion) and developed
guidelines for the Black Cross Nurses. He served on committees, spoke at rallies,
and was elected one of the delegates  representing the 35,000 members of the
New York chapter at the First International Convention of Negro Peoples of the
World, held in 1920 at Madison Square Garden. It is possible that Drew Ali had in
fact borrowed elements of his African genealogical narrative from Ford’s. Other
evidence suggesting that Drew Ali was influenced by the Moorish Hebrews was
the importance he gave to Marcus Garvey—a feature notable among Ford’s
group—and the introduction of the word “El” 
(along with “Bey”) as a suffix to Moors’ surnames, which is consistent with the
Hebrew (Israelite) —and not the Islamic—tradition (Note: Prophet Noble Drew
Ali's familly were members of the Moorish Zionist Temple and Prophet Noble
Drew Ali did know Rabbi Arnold Ford who was a leader of the Moorish Zionist
Temple and was the teacher of Rabbi Chief Rabbi Wentworth Arthur Matthew.
Ford taught both Ahmaric, Hebrew and Arabic in his Beth B’nai Abraham
congregation). 

Chief Rabbi Wentworth Arthur Matthew

Chief Rabbi Wentworth Arthur Matthew (1892-1973) Yoseh ben Moshe ben

Yehuda, also given as Moshea Ben David was leader of the Moorish Zionist
Temple of the Moorish Jews of Harlem. Matthew created a Masonic lodge called
The Royal Order of Ethiopian Hebrews the Sons and Daughters of
Culture. The lodge functioned as a secret society where the initiated explored a
branch of Jewish mysticism called "Kabballah." Matthew was also a member of
the UNIA under Marcus A. 'Mosiah' Garvey. 

Dr. Suleiman Mohammed
Dr. Suleiman Mohammed (Dr. Prince de Solomon, Abdul Hamid Suleiman) -
Alllegedly, he was a said black “Egyptian” (recognizing that, at the time, Sudan
was officially part of Egypt); he was an Arabic speaker (i.e., an Arab, or
an“Arabian,” as the 1922 newspaper article described Suleiman); he worked as
a“minister” (i.e., a promoter of religion); and he had immigrated at some point
before his October 1909 appearance, possibly in 1908. Yet, there has been
founded a 1906 reference to a black Baptist named “Rev. Dr. P. D. Solomon from
1906,” but whether this is the same figure as Prince de Solomon is unknown
(See“COLORED BAPTISTS,” The Sun [Baltimore], June 10, 1906). The name of
Suleiman’s movement was the “Canaanite Temple”. Timothy Drew (Professor
Drew, later known as Prophet Noble Drew Ali) was a co-founder. Timothy Drew
(Professor Drew) meet him in Egypt and persuaded him to come to America. (To
the left pic) In one front-page article, this man of African (Afrakan / Afurakan)
descent was depicted wearing a fez and it was reported that he had been
proclaiming his movement to be both Islamic and Masonic — a “Mohammedan
Masonry” — and spoke of his mystical and Egyptian connections. According to
Martin Bernal "Masons 'saw their religion as Egyptian, their signs as hieroglyphs,
their lodges as Egyptian temples, and themselves as an Egyptian priesthood'" -
"OTHELLO'S CHILDREN IN THE 'NEW WORLD'" byJose V. Pimeienta-Bey, Ph.D).
Dr. Suleiman communicated to the group’s head, Caesar R. Blake, Jr., his demand
for the African-American Shriner community, known as the Ancient Egyptian
Arabic Order Nobles of the Mystic Shrine [AEAONMS] to come under the
protection of what he called the “Mecca Medina Temple of Ancient Free and
Operative Masons from 1 to 96 degrees,” the “true Shrine,” which, in a later
interview, Suleiman claimed to have incorporated a Mecca Medina Temple in
New York City and New Jersey. Timothy Drew (Prophet Noble Drew Ali) was a
member of his temple. According to author and researcher Patrick Bowen, a
newspaper article from 1922 confirms Suleiman met with Duse Mohammed Ali
and other leading Garveyites. Dr. Suleiman Mohammed in 1922
reiterated assertions about the true Shriner system only being the one out of
Mecca, and its requirement of converting to Islam. Suleiman even went as far as
publishing a letter from the Grand Lodge in England to prove that all Prince Hall
masonry was illegitimate. Dr. Suleiman Mohammad declared, "There Are No
True Shriners Among Either Colored or White Americans,” "NEW YORK AGE",
September 16, 1927. By the end of the month, Suleiman had written a letter to
"THE NEW YORK WORLD" newspaper providing more information about his
background: I, Abdul Hamid Suleiman, of the City of Khartoum, Sudan, Egypt, a
Mohammedan by birth, Master of the Koran, having pilgrimaged to Mecca three
times and thus become an Eminent High Priest and head of all Masonic degrees
in Mecca, Arabia, from the first to the ninety-sixth degree, am now in the United
States for the purpose of establishing the rite of the Ancient Arabic Order of the
Nobles of the
Mystic Shrine. It was later relayed that he had been leading a number of New
York City Muslims in attempting to “win Negroes to their Mohammedan faith by
stressing the fact of the absolute equality of races and genuine brotherhood
under Mohammedanism, as in opposition to the well-known attitude of white
Christians.” Journal of Race, Ethnicity, and Religion Volume 2, Issue 13. We hear
of Suleiman’s Masonic ties is in early 1928 when it was reported that he had
once “won notoriety as the founder of the Oriental Branch of the Masonic
Order.” In the following year, “Prince Abdul Hamid Sulyman of Khartoum, Egypt,
priest of Mecca”—note the use of the title “prince”—appeared as a speaker at
the second annual banquet of the “Grand Orient of Ancient, Free and Accepted
Scottish Rite Masons of Union Faith.” This order was said to have been founded
in 1923 by a J.B. Thornton, and in 1929 claimed to have 800 members in New
York and 15,000 nationally. It is notable, however, that one of the past masters
of the latter order (the “Grand Orient of Ancient…”) who was making a speech at
the banquet was “Rabbi A. J. Ford,” presumably Arnold J. Ford. Also, author of
"ABDUL HAMID SULEIMAN AND THE ORIGINS OF THE MOORISH SCIENCE
TEMPLE" and researcher Patrick D. Bowen has in his possession the
incorporation form for the “The Grand United Masonic Orient Inc.,” which lists
Arnold J. Ford. In the early 1920s, Ford had in fact led two different Black Hebrew
movements which incorporated Islamic themes and practices, the Moorish
Zionist Temple and Beth B’nai Abraham (“Scottish Rite Masons Give Annual
Banquet,” "NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS", February 27, 1929).

Emir Abdul Karim El

Emir Abdul Karim El, helped establish the “very first temple” for Moors;
the Canaanite Temple…He was a Moroccan Sheik who fought against the Spanish
and French in 1921-23; and…Doctor Solomon Mohammed is its co-founder.”
[Karim El “anointed” Timothy Drew {Prophet Noble Drew Ali}]. 

Father George William Hurley

Father George William Hurley, Prophet and Founder Universal Hagar’s
Spiritual Church (February 17, 1884 - June 23, 1943). He was raised as a Baptist
by his mother, Tina Hurley. At the age of seven he began to preach and challenge
the traditional Baptist doctrine. He was ordained at the age of 11. After high
school he went to Tuskegee Institute and Phelps Bible Hall Training School to
receive ministerial training from Dr. E. J. Penny. In 1918-19 Reverend Hurley met
Father Elias D. Smith, founder of the Triumph the Church and Kingdom of God in
Christ (Note: The same church that raised Rev. James F. Jones, also known as,
Prophet Jones. In 1938 The Triumph sect sent the 21-year-old Jones to Detroit as
a missionary Jones soon broke away and founded the Church of Universal
Triumph, the Dominion of God Inc.). Hurley was moved by Father Smith and his
teachings and consequently joined. After several years, he reached the level of
Elder and the presiding Prince of Michigan, but became dissatisfied with the
teachings of the Triumph Church. After this he briefly joined the International
Spiritual Church, but again he was not completely content. Soon after he became
involved with the Moorish National Divine Movement / Moorish Holy Temple of
Science under Prophet Noble Drew Ali. However, by 1923, he founded the
Universal Hagar’s Spiritual Church Association. He founded Temple #1 or the
“Supreme Temple” in Detroit, Michigan. After two moves Temple #1 found a
permanent home on Napoleon Street. It is this stability that led to the opening of
the School of Mediumship and Psychology in 1924. One of the major influences
from Prophet Noble Drew Ali's movement was that Father Hurley's used of the
"AQUARIAN GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST" written by Levi and Eva Dowling of 1908.
In 1933, Father Hurley, influenced by the“AQUARIAN GOSPEL OF JESUS
CHRIST” began to espouse that he indeed was the “God of the Aquarian Age.” By
1938, the U.H.S.C.A had grown from one to 30 temples piercing the boundaries
of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, New York, and Illinois etc. Also, during this
period of growth, structural organization can be seen in the establishment of
various auxiliaries. For instance, the Knights of the All Seeing Eye (K. of the A.S.E.
in 1934 with Prince Thomas Surbadger) as extensions to the church. The Knights
of the All Seeing Eye represents a co-ed secret auxiliary, which is structurally
divided into national chapters with the two highest offices being that of the
Most Royal Exalted Master and the Royal Noble Mistress. Although secrecy
encompasses this auxiliary, the members make public their overarching mission,
which involves racial uplift. Another prominent auxiliary is the Wiseman Board --
the even member executive branch of this ecclesiastical body. Hurley was taught
Arabic by Elias Mohammed Abraham, a missionary associated with the Islamic
Mission of America led by Trinadad born - Moroccan descent El Hajj Sheikh
Daoud Ahmad Faisal. Hurley’s descendants maintain that he knew Elijah
Muhammad when he was still known as Elijah Pool(e) and also knew many of
the other black urban sect leaders, people such as, Prophet Jones of Detroit,
Sweet Daddy Grace, and Father Divine of Harlem. Hurley’s statement that “a
true Moslem is a true Spiritualist.” In 2012, the U.H.S.C.A. boasted over 35
temples and missions in 14 states—Michigan, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, New York,
New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Wisconsin, Maryland, Virginia, South
Carolina, Georgia, and Alabama – and was headquartered at 555 South Oakwood
Blvd., Detroit, Michigan 48217. 
 
George Baker

 George Baker was known as "Father Divine" (c. 1876 – September 10, 1965). In
1906 sojourn in California, Father Divine became acquainted with the ideas
of Charles Fillmore and the New Thought Movement, a philosophy of positive
thinking that would inform his later doctrines. Among other things, this belief
system asserted that negative thoughts led to poverty 
and unhappiness. Father Divine attended a local Baptist Church, often 
preaching, until 1907. He became known as "the Messenger" during this time.
Father Divine was joined by Samuel Morris called Father Jehovia and both
were later joined by John A. Hickerson, who called himself Reverend Bishop
Saint John the Vine. In 1912, the three-man ministry collapsed, as John the Vine
denied Father Jehovia's monopoly on godhood, citing 1 John 4:15 to mean God
was in everyone:"Whoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwells
in him and he in God." Father Divine denied both that   Father Jehovia was God
and that anyone could be God. Instead, he declared that he himself was the only
true expression of God's spirit. In 1914, George Baker (Father Divine) traveled
to Brooklyn, New York, with a very modest number of followers and an all-black
congregation. He founded the International Peace Mission movement,
formulated its doctrine, and oversaw its growth from a small and predominantly
black congregation into a multiracial and international church. While, John A.
Hickerson, who called himself Reverend Bishop Saint John the Vine headed to
Harlem, New York where he joined the UNIA under Marcus A. 'Mosiah' Garvey
and also became affiliated with the Moorish Zionist Temple. He soon corrected
his name to Rabbi Eshof ben Dovid. He passed on esoteric teachings through the
Garvey movement. It is even claimed that Rabbi Eshof ben Dovid taught Hebrew
to Rabbi Ford, who taught it to Rabbi Matthews. Even so, by 1919, George
Baker had adopted the name Reverend Major Jealous Divine.
"Reverend Major" was chosen as a title of respect and authority, while "Jealous"
was a reference to Exodus 34:14, where the Lord says he is a "jealous god". His
followers affectionately called him  Father Divine. While in New York George
Baker (Father Divine) between the years 1914-1916, he became very familiar
with the Canaanite Temple teachings of Prophet Noble Drew Ali. In early 1932
Father Divine did a brief prison stay and  after his attorneys secured release
through an appeal on June 25, 1932, he declared that the foundational
documents of the United States of America, such as
the Constitution and Declaration of Independence, were inspired. Father Divine
also taught that contemporary leaders strayed from these ideals, but he would
become increasingly patriotic through his life. As a leader, Divine created a
patriarchal and messianic image that transcended his  theological and
intellectual limitations by denying the pervasiveness of color and race, as well as
the dominance of white society and the marginal nature of Black society. He
went on to state that everyone could be a part of the American society.
However, this could only be actualized in a government under God, and Father
Divine was God. Father Divine was conceptually contradictory. On the one hand,
he was attracted to white America, and he even married white
American women; on the other hand, he accentuated and actualized Mr.
Garvey's position which stated Black people were superior and whites were
inferior. Father Divine made numerous contributions toward his followers'
economic independence and racial equality.

Marcelino Manuel da Graça (January 25, 1884 - January 12, 1960), better known

as Charles Manuel "Sweet Daddy" Grace, or Daddy Grace. Sweet Daddy Grace,
was born in Cape Verde Islands, Portugal off the coast of West Africa. He came
to America in 1903, and settled in New Bedford, Massachusetts. He was
influenced by Pentecostal and Evangelic ministers. But sometime between 1914-
1916, he became affiliated with the Canaanite Temple. In 1919, he built the first
United House of Prayer For All People by hand in West Wareham,
Massachusetts. Sometime after a trip to Egypt, Grace received another calling to
move to the Brooklyn community of Charlotte, North Carolina and found the
United House Of Prayer For All People in 1925. Sweet Daddy Grace moved his
headquarters to Washington, DC, he returned to Charlotte one week each
September. Parades celebrating his visit became well known for their large
attendance and pageantry."Sweet Daddy Grace," was an effective evangelist
who preached revival in a Pentecostal tradition that included brass "shout
bands" and public baptisms. The United House of Prayer for All People prided
itself on an ecstatic worship style that included speaking in tongues. He was said
to have owned one of the largest fleets of Cadillac’s, had his own line of soaps
and healing medicines, performed miracles, baptisms. Grace developed a line of
products including "Daddy Grace" coffee, tea, soaps, and hand creams reputed
to have healing properties. Members of his church were expected to attend
service every day. At church, the congregation would take an hour "coming to
the mountain" by singing, clapping, speaking in tongues, and feeling the spirit.
There were also many claims the Sweet Daddy Grace healed people and changed
lives for the better. His followers believed he was capable of performing miracles
such as bringing the dead back to life as well as healing. He taught from the
Bible and accentuated his doctrine on the Biblical "grace." He told his followers
that he was the "Grace of the World" and only he had the divine power to wash
away their sins. He did not advocate an African or nationalist philosophy of any
kind; nor did he preach any kind of race pride. With such frequent attendance,
fervent followers and reports of good works, the church collected far more than
average weekly offerings, enabling Sweet Daddy Grace to expand his church
empire around the country and several places abroad. Sweet Daddy Grace and
his church's from a materialistic standpoint, work should note their extensive
track record, providing shelter, food, clothing, employment and elevating the
status of the poor. In 1960, he died in his Los Angeles mansion and the body of
Bishop Charles Emmanuel Grace was returned to Charlotte for a final parade
around his original church before burial in Massachusetts. Fitting the bravado of
his life, the eulogy was delivered by … Sweet Daddy Grace on tape. Based on the
good he did and other principles he taught, the legacy of Sweet Daddy Grace
endures with over 3.5 million followers in the United House of Prayer for All
People.

Bishop Rev. S. C. Blackledge D. D. author of “AN OPEN
BOOK ON HIDDEN MYSTERIES" (Copyright 1925 A. D.) was a good friend
of Prophet Noble Drew Ali 

Hadhrat Dr. Maulana Mufti Muhammad Sadiq

Hadhrat Dr. Maulana Mufti Muhammad Sadiq, who came from India, was the
first Ahmadiyya Muslim Missionary to America. Dr. Mufti Muhammad Sadiq,
arrived in Philadelphia on February 15, 1920, the United States Immigration
authorities refused to allow Dr. Sadiq to enter the country. After the
authorities interrogated him for several hours and established that Dr. Sadiq was
a representative of a religious group that practiced polygyny, they asked him to
leave the United States. Dr. Sadiq refused to go and asked for an appeal to the
Secretariat in Washington D.C. He was
incarcerated in the Philadelphia Detention House until the decision of the
appeal was handed down. Later, he moved to Chicago and in 1921
established the first headquarters of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, at 4448
Wabash Avenue, giving it the name "Al Masjid." His purpose, as a representative
of the Ahmadiyya Movement in Islam, was to convert Americans to the religion
of Islam.  Ahmadiyya Muslim Community is the only Islamic organization to
believe that the long-waited Messiah has come in the person of Mirza Ghulam
Ahmad (1835-1908) of Qadian. Ahmad claimed to be the metaphorical
second coming of Jesus of Nazareth and the divine guide, whose advent was
foretold by the Prophet of Islam, Muhammad. Ahmadiyya Muslim Community
believes that God sent Ahmad, like Jesus, to end religious wars, condemn
bloodshed and reinstitute morality, justice and peace. Ahmad’s advent has
brought about an unprecedented era of Islamic revival. He divested Islam of
fanatical beliefs and practices by vigorously championing Islam’s true and
essential teachings. He also recognized the noble teachings of the great religious
founders and saints, including
Zoroaster, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, Krishna, Buddha, Confucius, Lao Tzu and Guru
Nanak, and explained how such teachings converged into the one true
Islam. Because of its teaching and practice of universal brotherhood, the
Ahmadiyya Muslim Community attracted many said black Americans, who
assumed leadership roles within the Movement. Black Americans were told that
Islam was the religion of  their fore-parents before slavery. Apparently, through
their connection with  the UNIA's internationalist perspective, the Ahmadi
Muslims had acquired a keen  understanding of the ordinary black man
that enabled them to connect Islam with  Pan-Africanism and race pride. The
adoption  of Muslim names by all new converts was further commitment to the
Islamic world view as was the wearing of veils by some of the female converts.

During this period, Dr. Mufti Muhammad Sadiq became friends with Jamaican
born Marcus Garvey, the founder of the Universal Negro Improvement
Association, (UNIA). In 1923, Dr. Sadiq gave five lectures at the UNIA meetings in
Detroit. Eventually, he converted forty Garveyites to the Ahmadiyya Muslim
faith. The most noteworthy of these converts was a former Christian minister,
Reverend Sutton, who was named Sheik Abdus Salaam and was appointed the
leader of the Detroit branch of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community. A number of
Islamic oriented organizations sprang up among said black Americans in the
1920's and 30's, apparently influenced by both  Dr. Sadiq's teachings and by the
philosophy of the UNIA. Prophet / Master Fard Muhammad (David Ford-El,
Wali(d) Farad Muhammad) and The Honorable Elijah Muhammad, (Robert Pool,
Robert Poole, Robert 'Elijah' Poole-Bey, Robert Karriem, Ghulam Bogan) leaders
of the most successful of these American Islamic organizations, the Lost-
Found Nation of Islam, is stated that Robert Pool (Robert Poole) was a corporal
in the uniformed ranks of the  UNIA. Wali(d) Farad Muhammad was David Ford-
El's name used as a member of the Ahmadiyya group. Also Robert Pool(e)'s
(Elijah Muhammad's) name as a member of the Ahmadiyya Muslim group was
"Ghulam Bogan." Mizra Ghulam was the name of the founder of the Ahmadiyya
Muslims. According to "A CONCISE HISTORY OF THE NATION OF ISLAM AND ITS
EVOLUTION" Published on Friday, 09 July 2010 08:21, written by Imam Benjamin
Bilal, it states, "Mr. Fard was a member of the Ahmadiyya Anjuman community
of Muslims that were popular throughout the African American communities of
cities like Detroit, Chicago, and Newark at that time." During his time in the
United States, Dr. Sadiq had made many devoted friends. The Muslims in
Chicago were so attached to Dr. Sadiq that they sent a letter to the international
head of the Ahmadiyya Movement, requesting that he be allowed to stay in the
United States indefinitely. However, at the end of September 1923, Dr. Sadiq left
the United States and stayed in Paris, France for several weeks, where he
lectured and secured converts there. Then he  returned to India. When Dr. Sadiq
began his missionary work in the United  States, most Americans had never
heard of Islam or the name "Muslim," and had  never seen a mosque. Today,
Islam is the fastest growing religion in the United  States, with millions of
converts to various sects. The Ahmadiyya  Movement in Islam is continuing its
missionary efforts across the United States and around the world. It has
established missions in 170 countries. It has  communities in fifty-three U.S.
cities, where new mosque and mission houses are established. Dr. Sadiq's work
has grown from one small seed of faith into a tree  whose branches are
spreading from coast to coast.

El Hajj Sheikh Daoud Ahmad Faisal 

El Hajj Sheikh Daoud Ahmad Faisal (1891 - 1980) of Caribbean (Trinadad)and
Moroccan background, he founded the Islamic Propagation Center of America, at
143 State Street, Brooklyn, New York in 1928. He also started the Islamic Mission
Society, which was active from 1934-1942. Sheikh Faisal was granted a charter
by Sheikh Khalid of Jordan and King Saud of Saudi Arabia to propagate. He could
be found plying his trades among such contemporaries such as Noble Drew Ali
and Fard Muhammad as well as among his West Indian counterpart Marcus
Garvey. Although deeply entrenched in The Harlem Renaissance he cannot
be thought of solely as a  ‘race man’ – Sheikh Daoud was by no means limited to
any one sphere of social or racial activity. He was a true international man
- universal might be a better word to describe him. He spoke favorable of Noble
Drew Ali and his efforts to reunite said Negroes with their Moroccan past.  

Dusé Mohamed Ali 

Dusé Mohamed Ali (Bey Effendi), (November 21, 1866 - June 25, 1945) Pan-
Islamist, Pan-African-Asianist, African Nationalist and etc... He was born in
Alexandria, Egypt, to an Egyptian father, Abdul Salem Ali (who was an army
officer), and a Sudanese mother. In 1911,
at the First Universal Races Congress held at the University of London, Ali meet
W.E.B. Du'Bois and right after he founded the "AFRICAN TIMES AND ORIENT
REVIEW" in London. The journal
covered issues in the United States, the Caribbean, West Africa, South
Africa, and Egypt, as well as in Asia, including India, China, and Japan. As a
political, cultural, and commercial journal advocating Pan African-Asian
nationalism and a forum for African intellectuals and activists from around the
world it drew the attention of a wide variety of contributors. Among the writers
in the ATOR were George Bernard Shaw, H. G. Wells, Lord Lytton, Annie
Besant, Sir Harry H. Johnston, Henry Francis Downing, William H. Ferris, Booker
T. Washington and Marcus Garvey. “Duse was active in Pan-Afrikan circles in
London where he  tutored the young Garvey.” (Lemelle, 1992, p. 86). It is Duse
from whom Garvey got the concept "One God, One Aim, One Destiny," "Africa
for the Africans, those at home and those abroad." Duse Mohamed Ali, a 96
degree Shriner of the Memphis Rite (and Rosicrucian) met and taught Timothy
Drew and after completing studies with the Asiatic Brethren (Rosicrucians) in
Cairo, Drew went to Mecca. Author of "ABDUL HAMID SULEIMAN AND THE
ORIGINS OF THE MOORISH SCIENCE TEMPLE" and researcher Patrick D. Bowen
tells of the Rosicrucian articles written by Duse Mohamed
Ali's wife, Gertrude La Page, for Duse's journal, "THE COMET". Regardless,
Prophet Noble Drew Ali's later Adept Chamber 3rd Heaven is based on the
Asiatic Brethren Initiatic degrees. 

1st Degree Initiation

2nd Chief Degree, Wise Masters
3rd Royal Priests, or True Rosicrucians, or the Melchizedek Degree

"When Noble Drew Ali arrived and registered in Havana, Cuba, He autographed
His High Name of “El Hajj Sheik Sharif Abdul Ali” (allegedly) given to Him by
Sultan Abdul Aziz Ibu of the Saudi Family upon completing the Pilgrimage in the
Holy City of Mecca, Saudi Arabia. That event occurred during 1912 shortly after
receiving the Kemetian Adept Degree of “Prophet” from the Noblest Authorities
of the Ancient Egyptian Order (Order of the Asiatic Brethren or The Hermetic
Brotherhood of Luxor). It was there He was bestowed the name of
‘Faithful’ (Moslem) in order to be accepted into the Holy City of Mecca." It's also
been stated, in 1924 it is said the Professor Drew had an INFINITE EXPERIENCE,
and this event was the beginning of his PROPHETHOOD and the usage of the
attribute "Ali" annexed to his surname “Drew.” Hence, from 1912, receiving the
"High name" El Hajj Sheik Sharif Abdul Ali...he did not openingly use it. He went
by Professor Drew, then in 1924, he began going by the name Noble Drew
Ali. Prophet Noble Drew Ali did state, “I was given a high name over there but
you can not use it over here. Be good Moors and I will hand it down to you” (El
Hajj Sheik Sharif Abdul Ali). In 1926 Ali established the Universal Islamic Society
in Detroit, Michigan (which in turn influenced the creation of the Allah's Temple
of Islam, which later became the Nation of Islam by Wallace D. Fard Muhammad
in 1930) (read, "ISLAMIC ORIGIN OF THE ROSE-CROIX? 2006 02 18 by Emile
Dantinne [Sar Hieronymus]).

Marcus Aurelius “Mosiah” Garvey, Jr.

Marcus Aurelius “Mosiah” Garvey, Jr., (17 August 1887 – 10 June 1940) was a
publisher, journalist, entrepreneur, Negro Nationalist, Pan-Africanist, and orator.
Marcus Garvey was founder of the Universal (United) Negro Improvement
Association and African Communities League (UNIA-ACL). He organized the first
branch of UNIA in June 1917 and began published the "NEGRO WORLD", a
journal that promoted his African nationalist ideas, which by 1920 had a
circulation somewhere between 50,000 and 
200,000. AFRICA'S WEALTH by Marcus Garvey excerpt taken from an article
originally published in the "NEGRO WORLD" on April 18, 1923. "If the oil of Africa
was good for Rockefeller's interest; if iron ore was good for the Carnegie Trust;
then surely these minerals are good for us. Why should we allow Wall Street and
the capitalists group of America and other countries to exploit our country when
they refuse to give us a fair chance in the countries of our adoption? Why should
not Africa give to the world its Black Rockefeller, Rothschild, and Henry Ford?
Now is the opportunity. Now is the chance for every Negro to make every effort
toward a commercial, industrial standard that will make us comparable with the
successful business men of other races." In 1919 Mr. Garvey created an
international shipping company called the Black Star Line. Also, in 1919 Garvey
purchased an auditorium in Harlem and named it Liberty Hall. There he held
nightly meetings to get his message out, sometimes to an audience of six
thousand. Garvey's organization was extremely popular. Garvey and the UNIA
established 700 branches in thirty-eight states and over 2 million members by
the early 1920s. In At one point, Garvey claimed to have six million members. 
"FREEMASONRY AND THE BLACK MUSLIM MOVEMENT IN AMERICA" by Michael
R.
Scheiderer states, "Marcus Garvey was a member of Prince Hall Freemasonry.
Mary Lefkowitz states “To a large extent, the UNIA was organized along Masonic
lines: it had a significant benevolent function: It had
a constitution based on the Masons’; it also had a“potentate,” an
potentate’s helmet closely resembled the ceremonial hat worn by Masons in
special parades."

According to "FAMOUS NEGRO MASONS" Marcus Garvey-Founder of

the United Negro Improvement Association  was a freemason and belonged to
a lodge in Ponce, his native city (www.trosch.org/msn/mason-graphics.html).
"MOORISH HOLY KORAN CIRCLE SEVEN" CHAPTER XLVIII THE END OF TIME AND
THE FULFILLING OF THE PROPHESIES"

1. The last Prophet in these days is Noble Drew Ali, who was prepared divinely in
due time by Allah to redeem men from their sinful ways;  and to warn them of
the great wrath which is sure to come upon the Earth. 
 
2. John the Baptist was the forerunner of Jesus in those days, to warn and stir up
the nation and prepare them to receive the divine creed which was to be taught
by Jesus. 

3. In these modern days there came a forerunner of Jesus, who was divinely
prepared by the great God-Allah and his name is Marcus Garvey, who did teach
and warn the nations of the earth to prepare to meet the coming Prophet; who
was to bring  the true and divine Creed of Islam, and his name is Noble Drew Ali
who was prepared and sent to this earth by Allah, to teach the old time
religion and the  everlasting gospel to the sons of men. That every nation shall
and must worship under their own vine and fig tree, and return to their own and
be one with their Father God-Allah.

Interestingly, it is reported by the UNIA that in 1927 Garvey claimed to know

nothing about Ali or his organizing efforts using his name. Obviously, this is not
completely true! The following post card and article states otherwise.

TIMOTHY DREW AS A TRAIN

EXPRESSMAN IN 1911

Timothy Drew
Timothy Drew was born January 8th 1886 near by Clinton, Sampson County,
North Carolina. The "101 MOORISH QUESTIONNAIRE" states, 011. Where was
Noble Drew Ali  born? In the State of North Carolina, 1886 (Note: “THE
CHARLOTTE OBSERVER” dated Sunday, August 15th 1993, stated that “North
Carolina in 1690 reported the presence of Moors and that they are the ancestors
of a people erroneously called Melungeons.” Dr. Barry Fell (Harvard University)
introduced in his book ‘SAGA AMERICA" - The descendants of the Muslim visitors
of North America are members of the present Iroquois (Chiroquois, Cherokee
[Shariqi]), Algonquin, Anasazi, Hohokam and Olmec native people [Choctaw,
Washitaw]). Nevertherless, it's reported that his Aunt (Sarah Turner), who beat
him often, once threw him into a blazing furnace; yet Allah saved him from the
flames. Later on he ran away from home and one night while walking on the
road, he heard a voice which stated, "Where thou goeth, I goeth!" It was Sarah
Turner (Tunica) who raised Timothy Drew after the deaths of his parents and
taught him his true heritage (history), lineage and legacy. In 1902 at the age of
16, Timothy Drew became a merchant sea mariner and traveled to Egypt
where he was initiated into the Lesser Mystery Systems of the great pyramids
and also traveled to Morocco, Hijaz (Saudia Arabia) and etc... where he studied
Islam under some of the top Imams of North Africa. After Timothy Drew proved
his Prophethood before Hierophants of Egypt he made his only pilgrimage to
Mecca and received a new name "El Hajj Sheik Abdul Sharif Ali" and charter to
teach Islam in America from Sultan Abdul Aziz Bin Abdul Rahman Bin Faisal AI-
Saud (1876- 1953) who was the head of the Holy City of Mecca and direct
descendant of Hagar (allegory). By 1924, Professor Drew had a dream in which
soon after he annex his name with Ali, Thus, becoming Prophet Noble Drew
Ali. The Prophet later honored the Sultan by placing his image in the first edition
of the "THE MOORISH HOLY KORAN CIRCLE SEVEN." (Note: According to the
Moorish Science account, at the age of 16 he befriended a band of Roma
['Gypsies'] with whom he traveled the world, although other accounts state he
shipped out on a merchant seaman, became a railway express manor joined  a
circus and became a stage magician. Some researchers wonder whether Timothy
Drew actually left the States at all. See below). 

In 1906 Timothy Drew was a train expressman called a Pullman Porter working

for Illinois Central B & O Railroad, also known as Mainline of Mid-America
Railroad. He was raised in a Baptist church and moved to Newark, New Jersey in
1907, and attempted to build a militant Christian organization to combat racism
and segregation. This group was known as the Drew Baptist Movement. Drew
had to compete with the growing influence of major black churches such as
the African Methodist Episcopal Church (first Bishop Henry Mc'Neal Turner was a
relative of the Prophet) and the Black Baptist church. Drew soon discarded the
notion of founding a Christian organization and turned to the new concept of
Islam. Between 1908 and 1910, it is alleged Timothy Drew return from the east
to the states and joined the Prince Hall Masons (PHO) (read, "ISLAM IN THE
AFRICAN-AMERICAN EXPERIENCE" by Richard Brent Turner). Timothy
Drew became a Noble of the Ancient Egyptian Arabic Order Mystic Shrine.
But unlike others, he became attached to the principles, creed and faith of the
ONE  GOD principal as taught by Prophet Mohammed (read, "WHO IS PROPHET
NOBLE DREW ALI?" by Chief Minister Dr. Ra Saadi El). In fact, the “black Shriners”
had sometimes been referred to as “Moorish Nobles,” and apparently even
capitalized on the association in American culture of the image (in its more
favorable manifestations) of the Moor with physically and sometimes morally
strong, free blacks. By 1912, he united himself with two other individuals: one by
the name Sulaiman Mohammed, the other Emir Abdul Karim El of Morocco (his
Masonic-Shriner Brothers...to form a Masonic Temple you need three
individuals). Timothy Drew Ali was a member of Dr. Sulaiman Mohammad's
Mecca Medina Temple (Shriner). From there he received certain books, lessons,
and knowledge to think on greater things. Muhammed al-Ahari speaks on the
founding of the Canaanite Temple. "In 1905, Drew Ali met an Egyptian, Dr.
Sulaiman, and invited him to come back to the United States with him. By
1913 he had also become a high level Shriner and a member of the Grotto. It was
in that year he started his first temple—the Canaanite Temple—with Dr.
Sulaiman" ("ABDUL HAMID SULEIMAN AND THE ORIGINS OF THE MOORISH
SCIENCE TEMPLE" by Patrick D. Bowen). Professor Drew began his teachings of
law and history in the 1st floor Barber Shop shown at the corner of the building.
R. Dixon El, the Owner, became His first Adept and often taught when the
Prophet was on the road. Moorish Men became the founding Sheiks of the
Temple and later brought their women and children to the meetings. The temple
grew rapidly and was moved upstairs to the 2nd floor and by 1913, the (Old)
Canaanite Temple was born from this union on May 1, 1913, Newark, New Jersey
(Jerusalem). 
The Canaanite Temple building was located in Newark New Jersey. The address
of that building was: Seven Rutgers Street corner 12th Avenue, and West
Market Street (see above picture). (Note: The late J.A. Rogers of Helga Rogers
Publications was also one of Professor Drew's students and wrote about the
sciences he learned in "FROM SUPERMAN TO MAN." There also came Father
Divine, Daddy Grace, "God", and etc. who had come out of the earlier attempts
to establish the Faith of Mohammed). Suleiman’s assistant was a twenty-two-
year-old man named Wali(d) Abdul Farrad Muhammad Ali who lived at
332 Halsey St. in Newark, and had conducted meetings for the group. Professor
Drew's was challenged by Wali(d) Abdul Farrad Muhammad Ali (same name used
by David Ford-El later on, but some speculated that they were two different
persons) and in 1916 while teaching Arabic classes at Canaanite Temple
in Newark, New Jersey, him and Professor Drew got into a dispute where he
claimed the
Professor Drew was teaching a version of Islam that was watered down. Here is
the account according to Bro. Claudas M. El in his book “THE BIOGRAPHY OF THE
MOORS,” “Later as time went on, the Prophet’s accomplishments were
temporarily stopped. He received his first of many troubles to be faced him. A
New Comer came into the picture. He was an Arab named (Farrad Muhammad…
a Syrian Egyptian man named Walid Abdul Farrad Muhammad Ali) from a
Moslem Middle Eastern Country of Arabia who came to Newark teaching
Arabic. Being that the Moslem religion and the National side was new to the
followers of Noble Drew Ali, the Arabian became more interesting to most of the
people. The Prophet never taught a foreign language to his followers. He taught
the people in the language they knew all their lives, English, a language that has
been with the people since slavery time. 134 years ago or so. The Prophet’s
followers began leaving the Canaanite Temple, following a foreign stranger they
knew nothing of. The Prophet spoke to some of his followers elaborating on the
event that had taken place. He told the gathering how the foreigner had come in
and scattered his children, (his followers). The Prophet predicted that
something would over take the Arabian for what he had done.” This split caused
one faction stayed in Newark, New Jersey. Professor Drew named it the "Holy
Moabite Temple of Science of the World" (also called the Moorish Holy Temple
of Science of the World). While, Professor Drew and his faction moved from
Newark, New Jersey, the Chicago, Illinois the same year and on May 1, 1916, he
founded the Moorish National Divine Movement of North America ("MOORISH
DIVINE MOVEMENT" the name used on the official Seal) (read, "ENCYCLOPEDIA
OF AFRICAN AND AFRICAN-AMERICAN RELIGIONS" by Stephen D. Glazier, and
"THE MUQARRABEEN FILE BOOK VOL 1" by Brother R. Edwards-El, A.S.D.M.,
Author Brother J. Barnes-Bey, Co-Author). During the same year of 1916 the "so-
called" Jewish people established the Zionist Movement. The Moorish Holy
Temple of Science of the World became an  incorporation under the
name Moorish Temple of Science (Temple of Islam) which had been set aside in
1925, as a civic organization under the law of the state of Illinois, November
29th, 1926. Too many are caught up in the Illusion they can not see what the
Prophet really did. November 29, 1926 was the actual day the Articles of
Incorporation filed by the Prophet along with others for the upliftment of fallen
humanity. It was accepted and the Charter was Issued not the day it was filed
remember the Prophet said before he tells us he has already done it the Charter
of the Moorish Temple of Science was now in affect as a civic corporation of the
State of Illinois but having it's own jurisdiction as a sub division of the City of
Chicago [private sector] as the Catholic Church (Vatican City) did a year later to
be incorporated within Rome, Italy. This is the importance of the Certificate of
Corporation #10580, known as the Charter. The first nationality cards, as well as,
the adept chambers were formed under the original (civic) corporate status and
it was in these adept chambers Moors were instructed and sent out with the
learning truths of the Prophet Noble Drew Ali, who were instructed to teach our
people and erect temples in the name of the Moorish Holy Temple of Science of
the World, (officially, the Moorish Temple of Science) between 1926-1928 (Sheik
D. Hubbert-Bey).
MOORISH TEMPLE OF SCIENCE
Note: James Lomax-Bey was a director (trustee) on the 1926 paperwork for the
Moorish (Holy) Temple of Science, but was not a director on the paperwork for
the Moorish Science Temple of America. 
MOORISH SCIENCE TEMPLE OF AMERICA
In the "MOORISH LITERATURE" - "MOORISH LEADER'S HISTORICAL MESSAGE TO
AMERICA", Prophet Noble Drew Ali states,..."We organized as the
Moorish Temple  of Science in the year of 1925. and were legally incorporated as
a civic organization under the laws of the State of Illinois... November 29th.
1926... "Since the work of the Moorish Science Temple of America was largely
religious, the organization has been legally changed to a religious corporation
and an affidavit to this effect has been properly filed in the Cook County
Recorder's office in Illinois"... The name Moorish Temple of Science was changed
to  the Moorish Science Temple of America, May 2, 1928, as a special meeting
was called by July 20th 1928, the first Governors / Sheiks of the Temples (the
Supreme Grand Council) were named as the new board of directors for
the now Moorish Science Temple Of America. On August 1, 1928 at 2:52 P.M.
the affidavit  known as our Authority or form 1099 was filed in the County Clerk's
office as notification of the reorganizing of the Temple (forced to make change)
changing it’s status from a civic organization to a religious organization (on
paper) this was in accordance with the legal requirements of the Secretary of the
State of Illinois"... (Note: The name Moorish Holy Temple of Science was still
used. Thus, the civic side was never meant to be abandoned). 
NOTE: AS OF MAY 16TH 1927, THE TITLE "MOORISH HOLY TEMPLE OF SCIENCE"
WAS USED.
Grand Sheik Hommett Anderson-El

The late Grand Sheik Hommett Anderson-El said, "When I became a member, in
March 1928, the Charter on the wall in the meeting hall read Moorish Holy
Temple of Science of the World. Our Nationality cards read Moorish Holy Temple
of Science of the World. Later on in the year of 1928, The Prophet said that he
“had to strike his Charters.” By that, in most of his Temples he had a strip of
paper, which read “Moorish Science Temple of America; and this was pasted on
the Charter, covering up Moorish Holy Temple of Science of the World. There
was a few Moorish Charters that he did not touch; one in Chicago, one in
Charleston, W. Va., and at that time, the questionnaire and The Koran read,
Moorish Holy Temple of Science."

Prophet Noble Drew Ali organized the Moorish Science Temple along lines

similar to Masonic lodges, with local temple branches and “Adept Chambers”
teaching the esoteric wisdom derived from  the secret circle of Eastern Sages, the
Master Adepts of Moorish Science. "The faith of Islam practiced by those, who
are members of the Moorish Science Temple of America is liken to that of a Sufi
degree of Islam" - The Moorish Science Temple of America 1928. In the Moorish
Divine and National Movement our Religion is Islamism, that Old-Time Religion.
In the "101 MOORISH QUESTIONNAIRE" 017. What is our religion? Islamism. 018.
Is that a new, or is that the old time religion? Old time religion. In the "ORAL
STATEMENTS AND PROPHECIES OF PROPHET NOBLE DREW ALI," He stated,
"You (Moors) don’t recognize Islam because it is yours"... "Your religion is
Islamism, something you live everyday." In "SUFISM", by Hazrat Inayat Khan
states, "Sufism originated from the ancient school of Egyptian mysteries, a
school which existed even before Abraham (allegory), the father of three great
religions: Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. Those who know Sufism from
superficial writings, and, sometimes, from translations of the Arabic or Persian
literature, are apt to think that Sufism is the mystical side of Islam. In reality, it
is not true. Sufism existed before Mohammed, before Jesus Christ, before 
Abraham (allegories)." Read "AFRICAN AMERICAN RELIGIOUS CULTURES" by
Anthony B. Pinn, Stephen C. Finley, Torin Alexander, it states, "The Moors teach
that Al-Islam is the translation of the wisdom of the Egyptian (Kemetic) System
into the Arabic language [which is more than 68% Medu Neter] by the Prophet
Mohammad (allegory)...When Ali taught he called (it) Islamism. Islamism was to
be understood as much older than al-Islam, the "Old-Time Religion" that
descends from the ancient mystery systems of Kemet (Egypt). The mysteries of
Kemet represents humanity's (modern) earliest recorded understanding of God
or the Divine, and as such it is the foundation of all the world's religions." The
esotericism (called in Arabic tasawwuf) of Islam is today identified with the Sufis
(a word commonly thought to come from the Arabic suf meaning ‘wool’,
after the woolen hair by early Muslim mystics). Sufism is not a religion (in the
traditional sense), and ultimately exists above and beyond all labels. It is
said Sufism is older than Islam and that it really had no beginning. In the words
of Sir John Glubb Pasha: "Sufism cannot be defined in words, nor can it be
comprehended by the human intellect. It can only be imperceptibly 'caught' or
imbibed by association with a Sufi master." Sufi masters are also renowned for
communicating with their followers through dreams. There are numerous stories
of Sufi saints appearing in a disciple's dreams and using telepathy to direct
followers to undertake a special mission. The Sufi master is revered by his
disciples for being in contact with a level of higher consciousness, his mission on
Earth directed by higher powers. Studying the lives of some of the greatest Sufi
masters we often find them to be wandering holy men (& women) whose actions
are usually misunderstood by orthodox believers. The shrines of Sufi masters are
centers of trance dancing, exorcism, and miraculous healings. The Sufi tradition
is integral to Moorish Science (read, "THE MASONS AND THE MOORS"
by Mehmet Sabeheddin).

The initiation methodology of ancient Moorish Science was designed to provide

the necessary instruction and guidance for the use of the tools that would lead
the apprentice toward mastery of the physical, mental/psyche (soul) and
spiritual planes. These keys, for the higher functions and laws of the universe,
were imprinted, via frequency, into the minds of the adepts to foster the
understanding of the greater gnosis that created, governed and guided the
universe and its cosmic cycles. The elect, of the “visible order” of the “Revealers
of Light,” that encompassed this great body of knowledge were termed, by the
ancients, “the ones that death had forgotten.” Names and titles for these elect
illuminaries differed depending upon the language and degree (phase of
consciousness) earned by worthy initiates and adepts of the Mysteries of ALLAH
(UR RA). An example of this can be found in the title and seat of Melchizedek
and Imhotep. In Hebrew, Melchizedek is defined as the King of Righteousness
and Peace (Hebrews 7:1-3), just as Imhotep is defined in the Kemet (Egyptian)
mysteries as the King of Peace. This seat, power and title, like most  attainment
phases in the “Hierarchical Command,” is available for those worthy entities that
have completed their phase work in their respective consciousness quadrants.
This is evidenced by the (allegorical) initiation of Yashua (Jesus), the Christ into
the ancient order of Melchizedek (Note: Christ and Melchizedek are one and the
same...Supreme Consciousness) as mentioned in the book of Hebrews 7:15-24
and in "THE AQUARIAN GOSPEL OF JESUS THE CHRIST" by Levi Dowling... The
esteemed scholar and researcher Dr. George G.M. James in his monumental
book
titled, "STOLEN LEGACY" that was written in 1954, wrote about the Egyptian
Mystery Schools, which he maintained that a complex system of
neophyte initiations were developed and worked in Kemet (Egypt).
Freemasons or Masonry - As veiled in the Coptic Gnostic Egyptian text, the term
Pree-Messen (Freemason) meant “Sons of Light.” These“Sons of Light” are the
same divine entities identified in the "MOORISH HOLY KORAN CIRCLE SEVEN" as
the “Revealers of Light.” (Dr. John G. Jackson (1972) in “MAN,
GOD, AND CIVILIZATION”… stated that the term Free Mason was traced back
to the ancient Khametic empire (Egypt). It comes from a combination of two
Khametic words Phre [the Sun] and Mas [a Child] meaning “Children of the Sun”
and / or “Sons [and Daughters] of Light”. These two words combine to make the
word Freemason. The term originated in Egypt and proves that the first
Freemasons were
ancient Africans. It also shows that the order originated in Africa. Frank C.
Higgins also defines Freemason the same as above, and he has it as Phre-Messen
[from Egypt] [Higgins, 1923]. A Freemason is supposed to be an adept or master
of the ancient esoteric knowledge of the arts, sciences, mathematics and other
great aspects of learning of the old world). The ancient super scientists were the
ones that left the Earth with codes written in astrological ideographs, sacred
language hieroglyphs and codified measurements and mathematical ratios. This
is evidenced by the "HOLY QUR'AN" of Mecca being coded with the mystic
number 19 which is connected with the great pyramid and other great structures
of the galaxy, which are encoded with the mystic mark of 19.5 degrees.
As demonstrated and hidden within the great and sacred text of this Earth,
the greater gnosis of the “higher life intelligence” was never lost, but veiled in
code from those that were “ruffian” in mind. The operative science of the
"Revealers of Light" was designed to teach the initiate how to press past the
material boundaries to free him/herself from the prison of matter and the wheel
of Karma (Zodiacal Wheel) to further ascend and connect themselves to
the greater universal temple as a "Perfect Ashlar" within the temple's
structure. Under the umbrella of Moorish Science is the department, currently
known as Masonry in this age and time. However, the Masonry of today does
not reflect the higher life intelligence gnosis, as that science, ancient Masonry
was and is for the liberation of the spiritual Man from the fetters of flesh, not for
the subjugation and suppression of the ancient wisdom to oppress the minds of
masses from self mastery and planetary ascension. (This is the reason why
Prophet Noble Drew Ali said, "I have come to pull the covers off all secret
societies... The Preachers and the Masons will be the last to accept the truth and
the last to come in [to the oneness of being a pure nation])" The greater gnosis
and instruction from the hierarchical command was and is available for
those that are willing to submit to the cosmic laws of ALLAH (UR RA)
and surrender to the divine path of the higher intelligence, contained in “Self.”
However, it must be known that greater gnosis is only bestowed upon
the eager and willing adepts that are loyal and disciplined enough to “earn” that
level of knowledge, as
nothing comes without a price, test or process of distillation. To be
deemed worthy to manifest and carry the message of the greater gnosis of
ALLAH (UR RA), the apprentice must first experience the greatest of all
mysteries: The Job Mysteries...(read, "THE ESOTERIC CONNECTION BETWEEN
THE MOORISH "REVEALERS OF LIGHT" AND THE MASONIC "SON OF LIGHT" by Z.
A. El).

Levi H. Dowling
Levi H. Dowling (May 18, 1844 - August 13, 1911), a Theosophist (Rosicrucian), 
and  Mystic. He wrote "THE AQUARIAN GOSPEL OF JESUS THE CHRIST OF THE
PISCEAN AGE,"  first published in 1908. He said he had transcribed the text of the
book from the Akashic records and connects very strongly to what Edgar Cayce
said about the life of Christ.
 

Bro. J. Blakely-Bey said that the Holy Prophet said, "The third and fourth 
generation will see the good of my work."

Professor Ravanna Bey (3rd generation Moorish American and the Minister of

Education for the Empire Washitaw de Dugdahmoundyah) states, "Moorish
Americans are required to master the "HOLY KORAN," a text written in 1926 by
the prophet Nobel Drew Ali. It is not to be confused with the Orthodox Qur'an
inspired by the (said) Arabian Prophet Muhammad. Drew Ali's "HOLY KORAN" is
an abbreviated version of a Tibetan Text written in the Pali Language before
being translated into English. The more complete version of the Tibetan Text is
the "THE AQUARIAN GOSPEL OF JESUS THE CHRIST" (written by Levi H. Dowling
1844-1911). Professor Drew took parts of his book from the Rosicrucian work,
"UNTO THEE I GRANT" (1925) (previously titled the "INFINITE WISDOM
LESSONS" (1923) published by AMORC (Ancient Mystic Order of the Rosae
Crucis) and most of it from THE AQUARIAN GOSPEL OF JESUS THE
CHRIST, published in 1908 by esoteric Ohio preacher Levi Dowling. In THE
AQUARIAN GOSPEL OF JESUS THE CHRIST, Dowling described Jesus's supposed
travels in India, Egypt, and Palestine during the 18 years of his life which are not
accounted for by the New Testament. Noble Drew Ali did not claim to be the
author of the work, per se, although the final section of the Koran, Chapters 45-
48, are in his proverbial hand. The Koran is in three major sections. Chapters 2-19
contain the lost history of Jesus as a child and young man, His travels and
teachings in Palestine, Egypt, Europe (Asia Minor), and India. The ministry of
John the Baptist also figures heavily in this section. The most probable source for
this material is THE AQUARIAN GOSPEL OF JESUS THE CHRIST, although the man
credited with this work, Levi H. Dowling, as in the case of Noble Drew Ali, did not
claim authorship, but rather suggests that it is a revealed, pre-existing text
(Akashic Records). The second major section of the Koran, Chapters 20-44, seems
to be derived from the Ancient Egyptian text From clues in the text, it has been
suggested by twentieth century scholars familiar with archeological discoveries
in Egypt that most of the book was written some time after 1360 BCE by
Amenhotep IV, Pharaoh of Egypt, or by some of his successors in the great
Egyptian school of mysticism.
"SACRED DRIFT: ESSAYS ON THE MARGINS OF ISLAM" by Peter Lamborn Wilson
stated, "According to my informant M. A. Ahari, Noble Drew Ali was a Pythian
Knight, a Shriner, a Prophet of the Veiled Realm, and, of course, a thirty-second
degree Mason." (Note: The Ralph McNeil Jr. of the Prince Hall Phylaxis Research
Society mentioned that he has a new book coming out documenting that
Prophet Drew Ali was member of the Odd Fellows organization - Fahim A.
Knight-El).

Prophet Drew Ali was a Mason ([PHO] Prince Hall Origin not [PHA] Prince Hall
Affiliate), Shriner, 
Rosicrucian, Odd Fellow, Knight of Pythias (the reason MSTA meeting were held
at the Pythian Hall?) and etc... and I stress was... this is why, it is stated by Bro.
O. Payton-Bey of Temple 4 and 25 said that the Holy Prophet said, "I took the
cover off all the secret organizations." The Prophet states in the "MOORISH HOLY
KORAN CIRCLE SEVEN," "The reason these lessons have not been known is
because the  Moslems of India, Egypt and Palestine had these secrets and kept
them back from the outside world, and when the time appointed by Allah they
loosened the keys  and freed the secrets, and for the first time in ages have these
secrets been  delivered in the hands of the Moslems of America. FREEMASONRY
AND ISLAM: WHAT DO THEY SHARE?" by Fahim A. Knight states, "Noble Abdul
Sharif Ali (Noble Drew Ali) the founder of the Moorish Science Temple of
America in 1913 formalized the first Islamic organization in America in Newark,
New Jersey, he himself was 33rd degree Mason." Noble Drew Ali was initiated in
several branches of Masonry---a movement which has translated certain
elements of Islamic into occidental culture. One possible link with Islam might
have risen from the meeting between 'Assassins' and Knights Templar during the
Crusades; Rosicrucian's also claim an Eastern origin (in Yemen). From the point of
view of 'heretical' Westerners, Islam represents a source of esoteric knowledge.
From "XEROX  MOORISH SCIENCE TEMPLE TEXT," 1973. 59. Of course, we have a
few so-called scholars that try to deny this, but it is quite apparent for those who
can see. In the various oaths taken in these so-called secret socieities, one has to
state, "I am a citizen (of the United States)!" Prophet Noble Drew Ali exposes this
fraud. He states "By you being born here doesn’t make you a citizen." Negroes,
Blacks and Colored People are names given to slaves during the time of slavery.
Those born under the powers of the 14th and 15th Amendments are not true
Citizens but are declared 'Persons' (Commercial property) under the assumable
jurisdiction of U.S. Congress.The word 'Persons' as used in these Amendments do
not legally translate into Men and Women. Furthermore, he states, "I know all
true American Citizens are identified by national descent names to answer and
apply to the free national constitution of this free National Republic of the
United States of America. That's why I am calling on all true national citizens
(non-citizen  national (i.e. a person who is a U.S. national but not a U.S.
citizen) to help me morally and financially in my great work I am doing to help
this national government. For without a free national name, without a descent
flag of your forefathers, there is not a national divine title of the government in
which we live." The Prophet make a stark difference between an U.S. citizen
(Commercial property) and an American Citizen (non-U.S. National). Thus, the
Prophet had no alligence to the various oaths taken.

Arthur H. Fauset, in his pamphlet, Moorish Science Temple of America supports

the contention that of Peter Wilson and Robert Uzzel who maintained that Ali's
Islamic movement was heavily influenced by the Mystic Shrine and he indeed
borrowed their philosophy, lingo, ritual and the Masonic world view; Fauset
states, "Note the extensive use of ritual regalia reminiscent of the 'Ancient
Arabic Egyptian Arabic Orders of the Mystic Shrine of North and South
America and its Jurisdiction, known as 'Black Shriners'. The (so-called) 'Black
Shriners', consisting of 32 and 33 degree Masons were incorporated as an
organization in 1893 in Chicago. They used such titles as 'Noble' (Sharif) and
'Sheik'; called their meeting places 'Temples' claimed an ancient origin in Islamic
countries and wore fezzes on ceremonial occasions. The Moorish Science Temple
utilize the symbols of the symbols of the star and crescent, the' All -Seeing-Eye'
and two hands shaking (in a Masonic grip) their letterhead."

In the "MOORISH HOLY KORAN CIRCLE SEVEN" chapter titled, "After the Feast----
the Homeward Journey-- The Missing Jesus--- The Search for Him---His Parents
Find Him in the Temple----He goes with them to Nazareth----Symbolic Meaning
of Carpenter's Tools.

It states: "One day as he was bringing forth the tools for work he said: These
tools remind me of the ones we handle in the workshop of the mind where
things are made of thought and where we build up character. We use the square
to measure all our lines, to straighten out the crooked places of the wiry and
make the corners of our conduct square. We use the compass to draw the circles
around our passions and desires and keep them in the bounds of righteous. We
use the ax to cut wiry the knotty, useless, ungainly parts and to make character
symmetrical. We use the hammer to drive home the truth, and pound it in until
it is a part of every part. We use the plane to smooth the rough, uneven surface
of joint and block and board that go to build the temples for the truth. The
chisel, line, the plummet and saw all have their uses in the workshop of the
mind. And then this ladder with its trinity of steps, faith, hope and love; on it we
climb up to the dome of purity in life. And on the twelve step ladder, we ascend
until we reach the pinnacle of that which life is spent to build the Temple of
Perfected Man.

Why did Holy Prophet Noble Drew Ali give us a book that has classical Masonic
philosophy in it? What  are we to learn from this Masonic language? Well, in
each degree in Masonry the candidate is provide a set of working tools, but we
as Free and Accepted Masons are taught to use them for the more noble and
glorious purpose. This is what separate Operative Masonry from Speculative
Masonry, the former used artistic trades to beautify the external, and the latter
Speculative Masonry teaches how to subdue one's passion and improve
themselves in Masonry by instilling the principles of God, friendship and
brotherly love. The sublime teachings of right angles, perpendiculars and
horizontals, etc., it is also designed to inculcate moral edification and spiritual
values. The construction tools have a meaning of duality in Masonry that can
only be interpreted from it rites and sacrament ("FREEMASONRY AND ISLAM:
WHAT DO THEY SHARE?" by Fahim A. Knight).

.
Prophet Noble Drew Ali stated "I am a universal Prophet, and my philosophy will
be universal" 
In the lecture, Prophet Noble Drew Ali, "RELIGIOUS CONTROVERSY, states, "The
remedy brought by Jesus, Mohammed, 
Confucius, and all of the other prophets, which remedy is truth. In the speech
"SAVIOUR OF HUMANITY" states, "Coming as he does with a message  for
the nations in somewhat the same manner as did Jesus, Mohammed, Buddha, 
Confucius and other prophets of their day."
Consequently, on each and every one of our Nationality cards, it states, "We
honor all the Divine Prophets: Jesus, Mohammed, Buddha, and Confucius." This
is masonic tone. In Carl Claudy's book, "INTRODUCTION TO FREEMASONRY"
(1931), he writes, "In his private petitions a man may petition God or Jehovah,
Allah or Buddha, Mohammed or Jesus; he may call upon the God of Israel or the
Great First Cause. In the Masonic Lodge he hears petitions to the Great architect
of the Universes…This tolerance of all religions is further clarified, "Masonry
does not specify any God of any creed; she requires merely that you believe in
some Deity, give him what name you will ... any god will do ..." Albert Pike,
former Supreme Pontiff of Universal Freemasonry, likewise exults: "Masonry [is
that religion] around whose altars the Christian, the Hebrew, the Moslem, the
Brahman [Hindu], the followers of Confucius and Zoroaster, can assemble as
brethren and unite in prayer..." (Albert Pike, "MORALS AND DOGMA," 1906,
pg. 226.) (Note: Albert Pike wrote many of the ritual for the Prince Hall masons.
"Thornton A. Jackson, Sovereign Grand Commander United Supreme Council,
33°, SJ, PHA from 1887 to 1904 was a personal friend of Albert Pike. Pike gave
him an autographed, complete set of the Scottish Rite rituals." Yes, the founder
of the [KKK] Ku Klux Klan, but the PHA is not the origin, it is the PHO). 

In the "ORAL STATEMENTS AND PROPHECIES OF PROPHET NOBLE DREW ALI"

Sister M Payton-Bey of Temple 4 and 25 said that the Holy Prophet said, "Try  to
have your temples in buildings, where the meetings are on the second floor, like
the Masons."

The National Compact or National Grand Lodge - Roundtree and Bessel

investigation point to numerous
references in the proceedings of Prince Hall Independent Grand Lodge minutes
from 1877 on alluding to the continued existence of the National Compact with
no mention of its dissolution; while disbandonment was a proposal in 1878 it
never was voted upon and approved. What the authors say is that, “ It appears
that William H. Grimshaw (Grand Master in PHA) might have taken unofficial
resolutions from the Chicago convention that were supposed to be returned to
the Grand Lodges for ratification and made them official.” If
this be true then the ramifications are enormous. If the National Compact
was never dissolved, and because it was constituted by Grand Lodges tracing
their lineage to African Lodge #459 and thus was their offspring, then PHO
today cannot be declared irregular or clandestine. The charge against PHO of
reforming itself illegally can be reversed against those PHA Lodges that withdrew
from The Compact. For if they withdrew and reconstituted themselves then they
are clandestine (PHO vs. PHA)? (Note: William H. Grimshaw's  1903 "OFFICIAL
HISTORY OF FREEMASONRY AMONG THE COLORED PEOPLE OF NORTH
AMERICA" began the story that Prince Hall was born in Barbados to a European
father and an African-European mother who fled to the British colony of
Massachusetts where Hall became a Methodist minister. Black Freemasonry
scholars have for the most part, rejected Grimshaw’s account due
to inconsistencies. In 1940 Harold V.B. Voorhis wrote "NEGRO MASONRY IN THE
UNITED STATES". Voorhis based much of what he wrote on  Grimshaw's book. A
short time later Voorhis discovered Grimshaw's book was  loaded with errors
and fanciful writing, so Voorhis removed his book from  distribution. Harry E.
Davis wrote "A HISTORY OF FREE MASONRY AMONG NEGROES IN AMERICA"
in 1946. He also found Grimshaw's book full of myths and outright untruths. The
question is..."Why would G.M. William Grimshaw make things up or lie?" Well, if
you read my book "THE FIRST WORLD ORDER: The Global Paths of the Ancient
Ones", I end the confusion, "Prince Hall, a mystic name is none other than
Benjamin Banneker, known as Chief Justice 'Big Ben' Bey Emmanuel Mu Ali).

In the article "FREEMASONRY AND ISLAM: WHAT DO THEY SHARE?" by Fahim A.

Knight, he writes, "This article will perhaps assist those who are member of
Shrine Masonry and hold offices such as: Potentates, Chief Rabbans,
Assistant Rabbans, Oriental Guides and High Priest and Prophets, etc., as well as
Masons in general, to get a brief understanding of Islam and Moslem (Sons) and
their historical, theological, and ritualistic roots.
"MOORISH CIRCLE SEVEN: The Rise of the Islamic Faith Among Blacks in America
and It's Masonic Origins" by Keith Moore 32'. Ali a high degree freemason,
incorporated various Masonic teachings from an auxiliary group. Known as the
AEAONMS ancient Egyptian Arabic order of noble of the mystic shrine A pseudo
Islamic / Arabic oriental organization that served as a wake up call to a lost
knowledge. A knowledge that was taken away from Africans during the slave
trades. Finally It explores the Masonic symbolisms of Ali’s Moorish science
dogma digging deeper into the esoteric side of his Aquarian / Masonic teaching
explaining their origins and discovering an age old wisdom that had been kept
hidden from the human eye. One would think that Africans in the Americas
would have rejected the religious tradition of their European oppressors taking
into consideration that African religions are far older & they possess more
sources of knowledge & spiritual salvation.

"AFRICAN ORIGINS OF FREEMASONRY: Treatise of the Ancient Grand Lodge of

Khamet" 
by Zachary P. Gremillion,  90th degree Zachary P. Gremillion..."Upon studying
the teachings of Noble Drew Ali and the Honorable Elijah Muhammad among
many, Mr. Gremillion discovered the original roots of the Masonic order came
from Ancient Africa Civilizations. 

Noble Drew Ali is often shown in the Master Masonic stance. 

We see him in a classical masonic stance with his hand outside of his chest as
opposed to inside as he is one that came and revealed the secrets. In order to
reveal the secrets he had to first know what they are. Here is the step chart in
the masonic stances.

GRAND  MASTER OF THE SECOND VEIL  OR JUNIOR OVERSEER. 
Grand Sheik Messiah Aziz-El of the Moorish Holy Temple of Science of the World
2F (www.HolyMoorishEmporium.com) states, "Most Moors will not
acknowledge the fact that Prophet Noble Drew Ali was masonic and taught
masonic principles, as laid out in the adept chamber of the MHTS, MSTA.

Chapter V, in part (Holy Koran of MHTS)

13. "These tools remind me of the ones we handle in the workshop of the mind 
where things were made of thought and where we build up character.

14. We use the square to measure all our lines, to straighten out the crooked
places of the way, and make the corners of our conduct square.

15. We use the compass to draw circles around our passions and desires to keep
them in the bounds of righteousness.

16. We use the axe to cut away the knotty, useless and ungainly parts and make
the character symmetrical.
17. We use the hammer to drive home the truth, and pound it in until it is a part
of every part.

18. We use the plane to smooth the rough, uneven surfaces of joint, and block,
and board that go to build the temple for the truth.

19. The chisel, line, the plummet and the saw all have their uses in the workshop
of the mind.

20. And then this ladder with its trinity of steps, faith, hope and love; on it we
climb up to the dome of purity in life.

21. And on the twelve step ladder, we ascend until we reach the pinnacle of that
which life is spent to build the Temple of Perfected Man."

It is self evident in chapter V that the principles of masonry were laid out by
Prophet Noble Drew Ali in the MHTS. For those who have ever studied masonry
or endured in any of the orders of masonry, the above teachings are masonic
without a doubt or contradiction!

Prophet Noble Drew Ali was an Egyptian Adept, A.E.A.O.N.M.S. Prophet and
Noble are titles within the shrine and  Fezzes/turbins are the headress during
rituals."

Grand Sheik Messiah Aziz-El goes on further and asks the question..."What is the
shrine?" The shrine of Islam!

Know your history/science Moors! Study up! Study and learn the true nature of
yourself and why our ancient forefathers/foremothers, laid down certain schools
of thought which are still carried out till this day. What our ancient forefathers
were we are today without a doubt or contradiction.

We, the Moors, are the fathers of the mystic shrine and all orders of
freemasonry. This is the science of law and government and for commercial
purposes we have shared a great deal of these sciences with the pale-skin
nations of Europe. Consequently, we have multiple European orders of
freemasonry and shriners. Master and Honorable are also titles in the Mystic
Shrine. The Honorable Elijah Muhammed states in "Supreme Wisdom," that we
gave the pale-skin Nations of Europe the principles of Islam that he may come
around us to do trade and where our flag (cresent moon and star) with the
schimitar above it.

LOST FOUND MUSLIM/MOSLEM LESSON NO. 1

"9.    Why does Muhammad make  the Devil Study from thirty-five to fifty years
before  he can call himself a Muslim son?  And wear the  greatest and only Flag
of the Universe?  And he must add a  sword on the upper part of the Holy and
Greatest Universe  Flag of Islam?

Answer: So that he could  clean himself up. A Muslim does not love the Devil
regardless to how long he studies. After he has devoted thirty-five or fifty years
trying to  learn and do like the original man, he could come  and do trading
among us and we would not kill him  as quick as we would the other Devils - that
is, who have not gone under this Study. After he goes through with this Labor
from thirty-five to  fifty  years, we permit him to wear our Holy Flag, which is  the
Sun, Moon and Star. He must add the sword on the upper part. The sword is the
emblem of Justice and it was used by the original  man in Muhammad's time.
Thus, it was placed on the upper part of the  Flag so that the Devil can always see
it, so he will  keep in mind that any time he reveals the Secrets, his head would
be taken off by the sword. We give him  this chance so that he could clean

Flag known.The Universe  is everything - Sun Moon and Stars. They are planets.
Planets are something grown or made from the  beginning. And holy is

By this first convention of the MSTA in 1928, its Membership had flourished (The
Second Supreme Grand Business Manager, Aaron Payne-El was quoted that
the number was over "12,000" in 1928) and fifteen temples were established in
10 different states. However, when Prophet Noble Drew Ali veiled form July
20th, 1929, Prophet Noble Drew Ali had established 19 branch temples, 20
subordinate temples, and his membership ran well over one hundred thousand.
Faithful members and followers had established Moorish businesses,
newspapers and schools and Prophet Noble Drew Ali became an early voice in
the "Nationalist" movement.

Prophet Noble Drew Ali was already warning Supreme Grand Governor James
Lomax-Bey (later called Professor Ezaldine Muhammad) since December 27,
1928. Yet, nearly two months later. The Prophet attended a meeting on February
15th, 1929 where Supreme Grand Governor James Lomax-Bey stated that he was
now in power and the finance was now his in front of 1,500 members and he
brought charges against the Prophet claiming the Prophet embezzled 
($8,000.00) eight thousand dollars, when in reality, it was Supreme Grand
Governor Lomax Bey who embezzled the (8,000.00) eight thousand dollars
from the Prophet and the Moorish Science Temple of America with the help of
Supreme Business Manager Claude Greene-Bey attempting to set up Prophet
Noble Drew Ali and stage a coup to take over the movement (Note: Noble Drew
Ali was also the founder of the Moorish Manufacturing Corporation, which 
produce remedies, such as, Moorish mineral and healing oil, antiseptic
bath compound, and Moorish tea. Also, his followers began to establish a variety
of business enterprises, including restaurants, grocery and furniture stores,
real estate firms, etc...). Supreme Business Manager Claude D. Greene-Bey held a
special meeting with Supreme Grand Governor James Lomax Bey about
removing the Prophet, placing Supreme Grand Governor James Lomax-Bey as
the new head, and even starting their own organization, if necessary, because
it was believed by them that Supreme Grand Governor James Lomax-Bey had
enough followers in Detroit, and Supreme Business Manager Claude D. Greene-
Bey had enough followers (including, Grand Sheik Small-Bey, Supreme Grand
Secretary Pearl Drew Ali, and Adept Charles Kirkman-Bey) to pull it off. The
original members of the Supreme Grand Council: 1. Prophet Noble Drew Ali. 2.
Brother George Blackwell-Bey Chicago, Ill 3. Brother Richard Ross-Bey, Chicago,
Ill 4. Governor James Lomax-Bey  Detroit, Mich., Temple No. 4, 5. Governor
Edward Mealy El, Chicago, Ill, Temple No. 1, 6. Brother Claude D. Greene,
Chicago, Ill, Temple No. 1, 7. Sister Pearl Drew Ali, Chicago, Ill, Temple No. 1. The
Supreme Grand Council positions were Supreme Grand Chairman, Supreme
Grand Sheik, Supreme Business manager, Supreme Grand Governor, Supreme
Historian, Supreme Treasurer and Supreme Secretary. Nevertheless, James
Lomax-Bey, Claude D. Greene-Bey, Small-Bey believed that they had followers
(including Pearl Drew Ali, and Charles Kirkman-Bey) in Temples 3, 4, 7, 9, 15 and
18. The Prophet heard about the coup and held a special meeting with the
Supreme Grand Council, who issued a Proclamation, signed by Prophet Noble
Drew Ali, Edward Mealy-El, T. Crumby-Bey and C. Childs-Bey removing four
members Bro. James Lomax-Bey, Bro. Claude D. Greene-Bey, Sis. Pearl Drew-Ali,
Bro. Small-Bey immediately, having all of their credentials revoked and
dismissed them from official position and enrollment. The prophet changed the
Supreme Grand Council around, the board of directors, and the Moorish guide
newspaper, with Aaron Payne El replacing Claude D. Greene-Bey, as the Supreme
Business Manager. Richard H. Ross-Bey replaced Claude D. Greene-Bey, as
Managing Editor of the Moorish Guide Newspaper, Supreme Grand Governor
James Lomax was replaced by Grand Sheik David Ford-El and Supreme Secretary
Sis. Pearl Drew Ali was replaced by Supreme Secretary Sis. Mary  Drew Ali. 
GRAND SHEIK / GOVERNOR T. CRUMBY-BEY

By March 12, 1929 a struggle for power erupted between Prophet Noble Drew
Ali 
and his former Business Manager Claude D. Greene-Bey. Claude D. Greene-Bey
now stages his own coup by pronouncing himself the Supreme Grand
Chairman. Prophet Noble  Drew Ali’s files and furniture were thrown out onto
the street. Claude Greene-Bey took a number of Noble Drew Ali's followers along
with him. So, Prophet Noble Drew Ali request the assistance of the Moorish
Grand Governor, T. Crumby-Bey. Ira Johnson-Bey nicknamed "The
Hammer," from Pittsburgh (and others) were sent to quell the rebellion. After a
meeting Ira Johnson-Bey (and the others) had with the Prophet about this
situation, Ira Johnson-Bey took it upon himself to "REMOVE" the problem (called
the bad tooth) all together. Ira Johnson-Bey and three other members paid
Claude D. Greene-Bey a visit on March 21st, 1929, there was a fight at the
"Booster Club" (where UNITY HALL was located on 3140 Indiana Ave.), where
Claude D. Greene-Bey was shot by Ira Johnson Bey) and stabbed multiple times.
Later, Bro. Small-Bey admitted it was Ira Johnson-Bey that had done the shooting
to police. it was Sheik Small-Bey's testimony about the meeting the Prophet held
before the shooting that caused the police to charge the Prophet in connection
to it. (Note: The murder of Bro. Claude Greene-Bey was allegedly plotted
during this meeting between the Prophet and Sheik Ira Johnson-Bey. Sheik
Small-Bey would later testify to the police that Sheik Ira Johnson-Bey
approached him asking him to remove Brother Claude D. Greene-Bey. He,
according to Sheik Small-Bey, offered to pay the expenses of a court trial if he
should be arrested in the matter. The police had difficulty obtaining collaborating
statements from other members of the organization. However, they did discover
that Grand Governor J. Lomax-Bey, Grand Sheik,subordinate Temple #4 in
Detroit was also a marked man. And, that Brother Lomax-Bey was allied with
Brother Greene-Bey to establish a rival organization. Brother Greene-Bey,
who was Supreme Business Manager, is said to have known many of the
Prophet's inner most secrets. When the split came. Police were also able to
obtain from internal sources, a proclamation bearing the signatures of Grand
Governor T. Crumby-Bey, Governor C. Child-Bey, Supreme Grand Sheik E. Mealy-
El and Prophet Noble Drew Ali dismissing both Bro. James Lomax-Bey and Bro.
Claude Greene-Bey from the Moorish Science Temple of America. It was this
document and Sheik Small-Bey's testimony that caused them to originally charge
the Prophet in this matter). Sheik Small-Bey was upset about being removed
from office and replaced by William Morris-El, by the Supreme Grand Council for
supporting Bro. Claude D. Greene-Bey and Bro. James Lomax-Bey also. On March
22nd, 1929, shots were also fired at James Lomax-Bey at Temple No. 4
(supposedly by Ira Johnson-Bey, who was said to have been seen outside on a
local phone), but he was missed, a fight broke out between those loyal to James
Lomax, and those loyal to the Prophet, then a full riot broke out and two police
officers and two Moors got hurt badly. They were S. Stone-Bey and Z. Lowe-Bey.

Prophet Noble Drew Ali was out of town at the time, as he was dealing with
Supreme Grand Governor James Lomax-Bey. "James Lomax-Bey had also
supported Supreme Business Manager Claude Greene-Bey's attempted coup as
he staged his own a month earlier. James Lomax Bey eventually left the country
during the proceeding turmoil, and went to Turkey and changed his name to
Professor Ezaldine Muhammad. He returned in the late 1930s from Egypt, founds
Adenu Allahe Universal Arabic Association, a Sunni organization. Timothy Dingle-
El wrote a book, used by both brothers (Richardson and Timothy), entitled “THE
RESURRECTION: MOORISH SCIENCE TEMPLE OF AMERICA, INC. – THE
TRUTH: BE YOURSELF AND NOT – SOMEBODY ELSE,” (Note: Timothy was also
called "Timothy Dingle-El-Noble-Drew-Ali", the Reincarnated Prophet) states,
"The Noble said that he have a bad tooth in his mouth and he is going back to
Chicago and get his dentist and have him to pull it out. When he got back to
Chicago he called his Adept Chamber together. The Chamber members consisted
of people from various secret orders or societies. The Noble told the Chamber his
story and asked who would pull this bad tooth out. A Sheik (Ira Johnson-Bey)
volunteered and done the job.  In "SACRED DRIFT: ESSAYS ON THE MARGINS
OF ISLAM" by Peter Lamborn Wilson, he states,Timothy Dingle-El asserted that
Prophet Noble Drew Ali really did order the death of Sheik Claude Greene-Bey,
and that he was fully justified to do so. Timothy went further, stating, "The
Noble Drew Ali was arrested as he sat with his wife (Mary Drew Ali, the daughter
of Grand Sheik Foreman-Bey) and a group of his followers celebrating." The
police arrested him and other members of the community on suspicion of having
instigated the killing (accessory to homicide). When the Prophet was questioned
by authorities he stated that he knew nothing about a hit squad or the murder
and allegedly beaten by police, and released on bond (bail) pending an
indictment. While release on bail, Prophet Noble Drew Ali issued the following: 

"To the Heads of All Temples, Islam: "I, your Prophet, do hereby and now write
you a letter as a warning and  appeal to your good judgment for the present and
the future. Though I am now in custody for you and the cause, it is all right and it
is well for all who still believe in me and my Father-God Allah. I have redeemed
all of you and you shall be saved, all of you, even with me. I go to bat Monday,
May 20, before the Grand Jury. If you are with me, be there. Hold on and keep
the faith, and great shall be your reward. Remember my laws and love ye one
another. Prefer not a stranger to your brother. Love and truth and Peace I leave
all. Peace from Your Prophet, Noble Drew Ali" ("THE MUQARRABEEN FILE BOOK
VOL 1" by Brother R. Edwards-El, A.S.D.M., Author Brother J. Barnes-Bey, Co-
Author).

Prophet Noble Drew Ali promoted David Ford-El, a.k.a. Master Fard Muhammad
(eventhough, the Nation of Islam publically deny this), as the acting head
Supreme Grand Chairman, in place of Supreme Grand Sheik Edward Mealy-El? It
has been stated the Supreme Grand Sheik was allegely threaten and beating by
Adept Charles Kirkman-Bey and was in hiding. Prophet Noble Drew Ali said,
"If you want European Grand Sheiks, I can give them to you." Personal research
has proven that Fard knew Noble Drew Ali well. Fard (Ford) moved secretly
throughout America for 20 years before he started the open aspects of His work,
according to the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad. Prophet Noble Drew
Ali passed form on Saturday, July 20th, 1929, at his home on 3603 Indiana
Ave. at 10:10 P.M. at the young age of 43 (the same date one year earlier when
the corporate body also officially changed/reorganized in its form). At his
bedside were Dr. Clarence Payne-El, Attorney Aaron Payne-El, his father in-law,
Bro. Foreman-Bey, and the Prophet’s wife, Sis. Mary Drew Ali. Dr. Clarence
Payne-El filed the death certificate, which proclaimed that the Prophet died of
"Tuberculosis Broncho Pneumonia" (which I have seen a copy). Although
the exact circumstances of his death are unknown. Despite the official report,
many of his followers speculated that his death was caused by injuries from the
police or from temple members vying for Ali's position had him killed. One Moor
told the Chicago Defender, "The Prophet was not ill; his work was done and he
laid his head upon the lap of one of his followers and passed out." According to
the "ORAL STATEMENTS AND PROPHECIES OF PROPHET NOBLE DREW ALI" Bro. I.
Cook-Bey, G.G. (Emeritus) of Illinois said that the Holy Prophet Noble Drew Ali
said, "If I cannot teach you here, I will teach you on the soul-plane." 
Nevertheless, an autopsy was never conducted and a full-scale police
investigation never conducted. Nevertheless, the Prophets' body was taken to
the Frank Edwards Funeral Parlor at 4136 Michigan Ave. and the funeral services
were held on Friday, July 26th, 1929 at 1:30 P.M. in the Pythian Temple on 37th
Place and State Street, the Prophets' body was laid to rest at Burr Oak cemetery,
Acacia Lawn, Lot 44, Grave 7.
Allegedly, Charles Kirkman-Bey of Temple #9, conducted the funeral ritual of
Prophet Noble Drew Ali.
NOTE: THE NEWS STATES THAT AARON PAYNE-EL BECOMES THE NEW
HEAD...INTERESTING?
In letter from Supreme Grand Sheik Edward Mealy-El to Supreme Business
Manager Aaron Payne-El dated August
14th, 1929.  

In reading your letter to brother Thompson-El a few minutes ago, and in view

of the wishes of The Prophet, as laid  down in his laws to me, by himself, I
wish to call your attention to the fact  that it was his will that we hold the
coming convention of 1929, beginning  September the 15th to the 20th of the
same month. 

My objection  is only that the date which was made by The Prophet be

considered as law with  me, and remembering also that he said: "As long as you
do what I tell you, you  will be alright, but when you fail to obey my orders, you
will have trouble",  having talked the matter over with all the Governors, I find
them all in favor  of supporting the date of the convention as laid down by our
PROPHET. Now, as business Manager, I am asking you to give away to the
time of the PROPHETS choice and arrange your dates accordingly, which begins 
September 15th to September 20th inclusive. This will also give them more time 
for Preparation for the same. We must do all we can for Peace, that  a
progressive advance may manifest itself in all of our actions. This done, all else is
well. Trusting this meets your approval, 

I am, your brother  in Islam,

E. Mealy El. 

In another letter dated August 29th, 1929, Supreme Grand Sheik Edward Mealy-
El had to warn Supreme Business Manager Aaron Payne-El to stay in line with
the Prophet's structure and practices, from the time of the National Convention,
to holding their Adept Chamber meetings. At the 2nd Moorish Science Temple of
America Annual National Convention, Supreme Grand Sheik Edward Mealy-
El nominated Charles Kirkman-Bey to the position of Supreme Grand Advisor and
Moderator. Even so, it was approved by 2/3 of the votes. Many loyal followers of
Prophet Noble Drew Ali stormed out 1929 Convention, Supreme Business
Manager Aaron Payne-El even took the MSTA Charter with him. Ira Johnson-
Bey was highly upset with Supreme Grand Sheik Edward Mealy-El for not
nominating him for the position Supreme Grand Advisor and Moderator, so he
was trying to take charge of the Movement, starting with the people who had
the paperwork first and foremost. He had some of his followers go after Aaron
Payne-El (at 3722 Prairie Ave.) who took the MSTA Charter (on September 23rd,
1929), these men were J. Mosbey-El, J. Davis-El, G. Johnson-Bey, and S. Gibbons-
Bey. On September 25th, 1929, Ira Johnson-Bey had more of his followers kinap
Charles Kirkman-Bey to get the certificate that Charles Kirkman-Bey had been
given when appointed Supreme Grand Advisor and Moderator, which is said to
have 21 Governors (the original title of the Grand Sheiks) signatures upon
it, from the said 21 Temples. He also claimed to possess Prophet Noble
Drew Ali's last will and testament, Ira Johnson-Bey told them that
"BROTHER KIRKMAN BEY MUST BE BROUGHT IN" and "I WANT YOU SHEIKS TO
GO AFTER HIM AND YOU BETTER ARM YOURSELVES, AND IN CASE HE
REFUSES TO COME VOLUNTARILY YOU CAN USE FORCE", and "BRING BACK
KIRKMAN, DEAD OR ALIVE, AND BY ALL MEANS GET THE CERTIFICATE!" They
went to Charles Kirkman-Bey's' house (442 W. Elm Street), and took him right in
front of his wife in broad daylight, and forced him into a waiting taxicab, then
they took him back to Ira Johnson-Bey at 4137 South Parkway (home of
Compton Johnson-Bey), some of these men were D. Francis Jackson-Bey, Mose
Jackson-Bey, Eugene Jackson-Bey (Father) and J. Stevenson-Bey (who was killed
by Sgt. Frank Reynolds). It was Mose Jackson-Bey, Eugene Jackson-Bey (Father)
that actually took Charles Kirkman-Bey physically out of his home. A member at
3140 Indiana Ave. told the police about Mose Jackson-Bey's, involvement, and
they went to his house at 1297 Townsend St., from there Mose Jackson-Bey led
the police to where Charles Kirkman-Bey was being held. The police arrived
around 11:00 AM to rescue Bro. Charles Kirkman-Bey. It was Sgt, O'Toole that
finally found Charles Kirkman-Bey who yelled out "DONT SHOOT, I AM THE MAN
YOUR LOOKING FOR, PLEASE SAVE ME!"
 
Ira Johnson-Bey
Nevertheless, Ira Johnson-Bey was finally arrested after a shoot out with the
Police. Over 1,000 police officers surrounded the home. Ira Johnson-Bey refused
to release Charles Kirkman-Bey and when police tried to break in and rescue him,
a shoot-out ensued. Subsequently, 
approximately 64 members were arrested, especially leaders, including Supreme
Grand Sheik Edward Mealy-El. It was reported over 100 bullets were fired least
three dead (one being a follower of Ira Johnson-Bey). Ira Johnson-Bey was
charged with murdering a police officer (William Gallagher) and the other police
officer's (Jesse D. Hults) killer is unknown. It wasn't until later while in prison, he
started calling himself "Allah-El," and gained a small following from there. Adept
John Given-El stayed in contact with him until he passed form on December 5th,
1949.

In 1929, Sis. Mary Drew-Ali (the Prophets' second wife) began writing letters to
the members, 

In 1929, Sis. Mary Drew-Ali (the Prophets' second wife) began writing letters to
the members, hoping to bring everything back together as it was under the
Prophet. In one of the letters she wrote that "Our Grand Sheik is in the Lion's
Den, and the Demons are everywhere, trying to tear down the Movement!" the
Grand Sheik she was referring to at that moment was Supreme Grand Sheik
Edward Mealy-El, who had not been released from jail just yet and the
'Demons'? All of the TRAITORS now being led by Charles Kirkman-Bey and his
rebels (later known as, the "MSTA, INC."). By 1934, Mary Drew-Ali feeling
nothing was left to do to fight the Demons (as she referred to them as), under
her fathers' (Bro. Foreman-Bey) direct request Mary Drew-Ali gave in to the
Charles Kirkman and his MSTA INC. group gave them all of her official
paperwork. This gave Charles Kirkman-Bey even more determination. 

Supreme Grand Advisor and Moderator Charles Kirkman-Bey attempts to take

over the Moorish Movement from Supreme Grand Sheik Edward Mealy-El. On
September 26th, 1930, Supreme Grand Sheik Edward Mealy-El sent Charles
Kirkman-Bey an official Temple letter and to other Temples, that the credentials
of those listed (below) were REVOKED;
 
1. Charles Kirkman-Bey
2. M. Dove-El
3. T.W. Owsley-Bey
4. F. Nelson-Bey
5. E. Menter-Bey
6. M. Cliff-Bey
7. C. Childs-Bey
8. H. Glover-El
9. C. Smith-Bey
10. H. Dove-El
11. J. Traylor-Bey
12. J. Williams-Bey
13. W. Smith-Bey
14. G. Cook-Bey
15. I. Cook-Bey
16. M.I. Washington-Bey and etc...

Therefore, between 1930-1934, Charles Kirkman-Bey tried to upsurp Supreme

Grand Sheik Edward Mealy-El. In 1934, he set up his M.S.T.A. Inc.  under new set
of Rules and Regulation. He held this office from 1934 until 1959, when he
passed away. Later (after 1930), once the Charles Kirkman-Bey fraction began to
strengthen itself, there were (3) three petitions filed to the courts against
Supreme Grand Sheik Edward Mealy-El's M.H.T.S. / M.S.T.A. leadership;

1. FEB. 13th, 1931, by J. Jones-Bey

2. FEB. 23rd, 1932, by Charles Kirkman-Bey
3. 1933, by S. Lovett-Bey and T. Crumbey-Bey, this was vacated on Nov. 22, 1933.

All of these petitions were to remove Supreme Grand Sheik Edward Mealy-El,
and place Supreme Grand Advisor and Moderator Charles Kirkman-Bey at the
head of the Moorish Movement. ALL OF THEM FAILED! 
J. Shelby-El (of TEMPLE NO. 1) even tried to get the LEADERSHIP of TEMPLE NO. 1
from Supreme Grand Sheik Edward Mealy-El on JAN. 22, 1935 by filing with the
courts an injunction against Supreme Grand Sheik Edward Mealy-El, and he
failed, but he took some members with him, that started their own temple
group. Attached to the injunction was a resolution against not just Supreme
Grand Sheik Edward Mealy-El, but Jackson-Bey, Kirkman-Bey, Foreman-Bey,
Crumby-Bey and Lovett-Bey calling for their disbandment and reorganization
under “his” leadership. The Resolution
went on to state:
 
That the Moors had wandered away from the Prophet's Movement and had
begun teaching military training (Mufti Force) and other innovations;
establishing insurance where stock were sold; added such offices as Supreme
Grand Advisor and Moderator, GrandRecording Secretary and other offices not
originally created by the Prophet; ceased to holdmonthly meetings of the Adept
Chambers, where an accounting of money taken in from thevarious taxes, sales
of stocks, supplies, etc. Even the "The aforementioned Moors havewandered
away from the rules and usages of the Moorish Science Temple of America, Inc.
The dates of the National Convention was changed from October 15th thru 20th
to September 15ththru 20th of each year." The resolution concluded by naming,
"J. Shebly-El as Governor; N.Gores-Bey as Grand Sheik; C. Highbough-Bey as
Assistant Grand Sheik and W. Cobb-Bey asChairman of the Moorish Science
Temple of America - Grand Temple #1.This would create a fourth fraction/group
of  the Moorish Movement. Following Sheik J. Shebly-El would be Sheik
C. Highbought-Bey, followed by Sheik L. Barnes-El. Headquarters would
be established at 4333 Calumet St., Chicago, Ill).

Even so, by this time, the only thing that Supreme Grand Sheik Edward Mealy-El
had left was temple #1, and his legal possessions (Moorish documents), which
everyone was still after. In late 1935, Supreme Grand Sheik Edward Mealy-El
died on a business trip, and his wife Sis. Delia-El received his possessions. Even
so, to dishonor and belittle the late Supreme Grand Sheik Edward Mealy-El, the
Moorish Science Temple of America, Inc. under former Supreme Grand Advisor
and Moderator Charles Kirkman-Bey started saying he died in a mental
institution (read, "THE CONTROVERSIAL YEARS OF THE MOORISH SCIENCE
TEMPLE OF AMERICA" by Chief Minister Dr. Ra Saadi El).

Here is a letter typed from Supreme Grand Sheik Edward Mealy-El to Charles
Kirkman-Bey dated Sept.
26th, 1930.

C. Kirkman Bey Bro. C. Kirkman Bey, this is to  notify you, that the above named
organization, MOORISH SCIENCE TEMPLE OF  AMERICA, in convention, Sept.15th

our Prophet was here, and we hope you will  cooperate with the organization
under the five
principles. We hope  further, that you will comply with this notice, and govern
yourself accordingly.

As there is but one Supreme Grand Advisor, in THE MOORISH SCIENCE TEMPLE

Judge has never passed his decision. There is no cause for them to be like that,
only they don't want to be governed by the Truth now, since the Prophet passed,
and that is the only hope of our security.

One great hindrance to my people is, they don't understand the Words of Truth,
Peace & Love as set before them by the Great PROPHET, He said so when he was
here. And told them if they Understood Language, they would be alright. I am
sorry for them, because not knowing, they blame me for all that has happen.
Yet when the Prophet was here, He told them, He Brought The divine Plans of
the Ages. And they can't
be Changed. And the Plans are called the plans of Redemption. And was brought
only by A REDEEMER.
And this REDEEMER, called Me, Ordained Me, Commissioned Me, and Then
Appointed Me to My Station, And Instructed Me That I was There to stay, At His
absence. And that all wanted that place, But said, I know who I want there. I
know who I want to handle My Money. He further said, You are to collect all
money, and Pay off all bills, He still said. And you will have to do what I Am
doing,. You will have to go around to all Temples, and report Back to Me.

Time and space won't permit me to say all you want to know, or what I would
like to tell you. But I say as I have, to give you who Don't know, or have not had
the chance to know the Prophet, or be With Him as I was, I had and Have a
reason for Everything I did Or have done. And can and will prove my Authority.
By His HOLY KORAN AND CONSTITUTION, AND HIS GENERAL AND BY-LAWS. But
the idea is this, THE PLANS ARE DIVINE, and we are going through a crisis and
conflict, that must be, before we can be redeemed. I hope I have made my self
clear. If I haven't write me. I love all I haven't a pet any place. No special
favors for any; considerate with any; under the five great principles.

LOVE, TRUTH, PEACE FREEDOM, AND JUSTICE.

I hope to hear from all soon. And if we expect to meet the prince of Peace, in
peace and with joy to our souls, we had better begin to think, talk, walk and act
different. He was made in secret, in the public, He was unmade. Get a program
of 1929's convention. If you haven't one, send for one; read, think, and you will
(find/figure) out that the programs are printed before the convention convienes.
Now trust in ALLAH through his PROPHET, and live on. follow anyone else and
perish. 

Peace. Love to all; E. Mealy El S.G.S.

Bro. Edward Mealy-El stated that the Holy prophet told him "YOU DO WHAT
I TELL YOU, NEVER MIND WHAT THEY SAY, I HAVE GIVEN YOU LAW, KORAN,
AND CONSTITUTION, AND I EXPECT YOU TO ENFORCE MY LAW, AND DO WHAT I
SAY, NEVER MIND WHAT THEY SAY OR DO. THEY CAN DO NOTHING BUT DIE!"
Dealia Mealy-El, the wife of Supreme Grand Sheik, Edward Mealy-El tried to use
Supreme Grand Sheik, Edward Mealy-El's paperwork (Supreme Grand Sheik
Edward Mealey-El's possessed the original Moorish Seals, original Koran
Questions, Adept book, early convention minutes, Rules and Regulations and
corporate files for the years 1928 to 1933) to introduce William Morris-El (her
lover) in 1935, as Supreme Grand Sheik, Edward Mealy-El's successor, but this
failed, as William Morris-El was rejected by the remaining members of TEMPLE
NO. 1. over time. Sis. Dealia would refuse to turn these items over to Kirkman-
Bey. However, later on several member took what was left of the lawful temple
paperwork (the original "Articles of Incorporation) and gave it to Charles
Kirkman-Bey's group, the "MSTA, INC.", thus solidifying his / their position even
more.
There were some more distrubing things in which occurred after Prophet Noble
Drew Ali passed form, but before the 2nd Moorish Science Temple of America
Annual National Convention that caused further splits. Sheik Adept John Givens-
El publicly announced that he was the “Re-incarnate” Prophet Noble Drew Ali
(August 7, 1929), at a meeting held at Pythian Hall, 3737 South State Street in
Chicago. Three weeks later on September 19th, 1929, during the 2nd Annual
National Convention of the Moorish Science Temple of America, Givens-El would
once again make his declaration of reincarnation. The Moorish convention was
entering its final hours, lengthy discussions had been held concerning the
Prophet’s last instructions. It was around this time that Givens-El entered the
convention hall, walking straight to the platform, he seated himself in the
“Vacant Chair” and declared, “I am back.” He then said, “I am Prophet Noble
Drew Ali, Reincarnated and Prophet Noble Drew Ali, the Founder. We two are
one in the same.” A silence fell over the convention hall. However, when a vote
was finally taken, two-thirds of the delegates voted Charles Kirkman-Bey,
the Supreme Grand Advisor and Moderator (Assistant) to the Edward Mealy-El,
Supreme Grand Sheik and official head of the Moorish Movement. Nevertheless,
by the end of September, a number of subordinate temples would begin to
follow Givens-El, "the Reincarnated Prophet." This faction developed into
the Reincarnated (Moorish Holy Temple of Science) Moorish Science Temple of
America, later Moorish Science Temple, The Divine and National Movement of
North America, Inc.

In a letter to his followers in 1933, Sheik J. Givens-El, would write:

 
447 E. 40th Street Chicago, Illinois
August 19,1933 
 
Islam: 

Moorish Science Temple of America; Instructions from the Prophet Noble Drew

Ali, Reincarnated 
 
This is to all Moors. I have reincarnated back on August 7, 1929, which now is
four years and I am having meetings three times a week just like I have always
did. I didn 't come to die, I came to redeem you all from sin. The time is no
depression. This is the end of time and the fulfilling of the Prophesies. I want you
all to know that I  Noble Drew All your Prophet is still in Chicago. I live at 447 E.
40th Street, now three years. This message is from Prophet Noble Drew Ali,
Reincarnated. All that believes this message that I am
sending by Brother Rossen-El will be blessed by Allah. I just want you all to know
that I mean to carry out my mission. Any information that you want to know just
write to 447 E. 40th Street to your Prophet Noble Drew AIi It is my duty to let
you all know that I am here.
 
 I will say peace, [SIGNED] 

 Prophet Noble Drew Ali, Reincarnated 

 
In response to this letter, C. Kirkman-Bey filed a series of affidavits and
injunctions against John Givens-El in the Cook County Court to stop all activities
of the rival fraction. Nevertheless, Givens-El continued to teach from his home
and through the mail for more than 15 years. It is reported that when he was
preparing to die he directed his followers to a brother known as "Allah-El". It is
taught among his followers that Allah-El aka Ira Johnson-Bey.

John Givens-El (born George Givens) was a native of Sumpter, South Carolina. He
was born December 6, 1904. Upon coming of age Givens El travelled west, finally
settling in Chicago, IL, May 14, 1925. Shortly thereafter he embraced the
teachings of Noble Drew Ali and joined and  became a member of Chicago's
subordinate temple #1 in 1926. After a brief period in the temple, he was
initiated into its Adept Chambers. He also became the chauffer-mechanic for the
Prophet Noble Drew Ali. It was reported that one day while working on the
Prophet’s automobile, shortly after his death, Givens-El fainted. When his eyes
were examined: “He had the sign of the star and crescent in one eye and the
circle seven in the other…right then, they knew that the Prophet had
reincarnated into his chauffeur” (Excerpt from "MUQARRABEEN FILES VOL 1" by
Brother R. Edwards-El, A.S.D.M., Author Brother J. Barnes-Bey, Co-Author).
 
Another stange event occurred a month before the death of Prophet Noble Drew
Ali. Prophet Noble Drew Ali, while out on bail waiting indictment, he appoints
David Ford-El acting "Supreme Grand Chairman" of Moorish Science Temple of
America (some say it was merely over Temple #1 Chicago). But, if it was just over
temple #1, normally, when the Prophet went on tour to visit subordinate
Temples, he left, Supreme Grand Sheik Edward Mealy-El in charge. Where was
Supreme Grand Sheik Edward Mealy-El? Obviously, Edward Mealy-El was not
around during that time period and Prophet Noble Drew Ali had to appoint
someone he knew and trusted. Prophet Noble Drew Ali stated, “If you want
European Grand Sheiks, I can
give them to you.” From one of brother's H. Bey educational pamphlets. -->
"Keep in mind that European  freemasonry was a secret operation of the
Moorish Masters whose purpose was to make a group of Europeans custodians,
and keepers for a time of Moorish Science, Codes and Ciphers until now, the
time of our resurrection. Even so, David Ford-El claimed Drew Ali had left him in
charge, and declared  himself the reincarnation of Noble Drew Ali. Arguments
erupted over the issue of the proper successor. Those who had been loyal to
Claude D. Greene-Bey argued that David Ford-El had not been with the MSTA
long enough to succeed Drew Ali, and insisted that Charles Kirkman-Bey, former
school mate of Prophet Noble Drew Ali, but one of Greene’s closest allies,
wanted to assume the leadership. Another faction, headed by Ira Johnson-Bey,
claimed that Kirkman-Bey was unfit. The MSTA remained a “house divided.”
Thousands of members swore their allegiance to David Ford-El (Fard), but
the majority rejected him and decided to be loyal to Charles Kirkman-Bey. The
inner violence, the arrests of several prominent members, and the boiling
scandal that followed prompted David Ford-El (Fard) to break away from MSTA.
Fearful for his own safety, David Ford-El (Master Fard Muhammad etc...) moved
to Detroit, Michigan (see below). In 1930, Fard named his group of followers the
“Allah Temple of Islam,” which later became the“Lost-Found Nation of Islam in
the Wilderness of the North America.” The below information demonstrates the
prior connection between Timothy Drew (Prophet Noble Drew Ali) and David
Ford-El (Master Fard Muhammad etc...).
Note: The name Ford is mentioned twice in the 2nd paragraph. "MOORISH
LITERTURE: THE
INDUSTRIOUS ACTS OF THE MOSLEMS" by Prophet Noble Drew Ali / Professor
Drew, The Egyptian Adept wrties, "The primitive colors alone were used, says
Ford, by the Egyptians, Greeks, and Arabs...Ford is inclined to give them
great antiquity... In "THE ORIGINS OF THE NATION OF ISLAM (The Farrakhan
Controversy-Part IV)" by Sergeant Sam Smith, "Fard told his host tales of great
African and Asian empires."

Thus, according to the 'Lessons' David Ford-El (W.D. Fard), is said to have come in
contact with Noble Drew Ali in his first appearance in 1910.The Most Honorable
Elijah Muhammad states, in 1910 Master Fard Muhammad appeared in the
United States in New York. After, the death of Prophet Noble Drew Ali at the
1929 Moorish Science Temple of America Annual National Convention. ‘David
Ford-El [W.D. Fard] is reported to have said, ‘He would bring America to
its knees’ for the death of Noble Drew Ali and the attacks made on the Moorish-
Americans by local police in 1929. One month later the stock market crashed and
many of the former Moors saw this man as a ‘Prophet’ and followed him to
Detroit where the Nation of Islam was born. During this time David Ford-El
started referring to himself as the Re-incarnated Prophet Noble Drew Ali. In the
beginning stages of the movement he was known as ‘Prophet W.D. Fard.’ The
Honorable Elijah Muhammad stated in an interview with Buzz Anderson in
1971 that in 1930, Master Fard Muhammad used the name Wallace D. Fard,
often signing it W.D. Fard. Honorable Elijah Muhammad stated that he didn’t
know what the “D” stood for. In the third year (1933), he signed His name
W.F. Muhammad, which stands for Wallace Fard Muhammad."
Elijah Muhammad said this about his teacher, in his book "MESSAGE TO THE
BLACKMAN" “Allah (God) came to us from the Holy City Mecca, Arabia, in
1930. He used the name Wallace D. Fard, often signing it W.D. Fard. In the third
year (1933), he signed His name W.F. Muhammad, which stands for Wallace
Fard Muhammad. The FBI has photographs and fingerprints of Wallace Dodd
Ford on file. The FBI alleged that Ford used 58 aliases during his lifetime. He went
by such names as David Ford-El, Wali Farad, Farrad Mohammed, W.D. Fard, and
F. Mohammed Ali. However, he is generally known within the Nation of Islam as
Master Fard Muhammad. Using the names Wallace D. Fard and Wallace D. Fard
Muhammad, he renamed the faction he controlled the Allah Temple of Islam
converting the Detroit Moorish Science Temple of America formerly
under Supreme Grand Governor / Grand Sheik Lomax-Bey and renamed it the
Allah's Temple of Islam (also known as the Temple of the Lost-Found People of
Islam; note: "Allah's Temple of Islam were also another name from the MHTS in
1925). The first Temple of the Allah's Temple of Islam was situated at 11529
Linwood Ave.

(Note: According to the "WASHITAW POST" April 1997 issue "WE
ARE NOT AFRO-AMERICANS; WE ARE THE WASHITAW" photo from Her Highness
Empress Verdiacee 'Tiari' Washitaw (Washington) Tunica (Turner) Goston El-Bey
collection, shows W.D. Fard, Timothy Drew and Corrella Drew all seating
together as children. Hence, Timothy Drew later known as Holy Prophet Noble
Drew Ali did know Wallace D. Ford later known as David Ford-El (Master Fard
Muhammad) and this would account for Prophet Noble Drew Ali trust factor of
David Ford-El (Wali[d] Abdul Farrad Muhammad Ali as he was known in 1916-
1918 or so, was heavily influenced by the Ahmadiyya Islamic group. Therefore,
this would account for the forgiveness of the split that took place in 1916. By
1928, in "THE INDUSTRIOUS ACTS OF THE MOSLEMS" Prophet Noble Drew Ali,
receives the teaches of 'Ford' and in the "MOORISH LEADER'S HISTORICAL
MESSAGE TO AMERICA," Prophet Noble Drew Ali goes into the connection
between the Moorish Science Temple of America and (said) the Mohammadean
religion. So, it was not watered down, it was in increments or degrees. The
following are excerpts...

"In connection with the aims, objects, rules and regulations of the

Moorish Science Temple of America. I deem It proper to submit to you a brief
statement  of our organization, covering Its inception, rise and progress and of
the Mohammedan religion, which I hope will be satisfactory to you and be the
means of causing you at all times to adhere to the principles of Love, Truth,
Peace, Freedom, and Justice in your relations with mankind in general... Inspired
by the lofty teachings of  the Koran, we have it as the revealed word of God
Allah. We shall foster the principles of its teachings among our members. This is
our religious privilege as American citizens, under the laws of one of the greatest
documents
of all  time—the American Constitution. The Mohammedan religion is the least 
appreciated and probably the most misunderstood of the world's great
religions. This is especially true in our western world. Try to understand what 
Mohammedanism stands for, and some of the things it has contributed to the
world. Mohammed was the founder of the  Mohammedan religion. It originated
thirteen centuries ago on Arabian Peninsula...Today this religion
is acknowledged  by nearly two hundred and fifty million souls and extends over
an area equal to one-third of the globe. From Arabia it spread eastward
over Persia, Turkestan, Afghanistan, westward across Syria, Asia Minor,
Turkey, southward to Africa,  covering more than half of that continent. It found
its way to India, and  beyond, to the Islands of Sumatra. Java, and
Borneo. To the early representatives of this  faith the world's debt is incalculably
great. For it was they who transmitted  the treasures of Greek literature from the
middle ages to the Renaissance; they  who originated the graceful forms of
which the Tajmahal and the Alham-bra are the most famous examples. It was
they who contributed to the sciences of algebra  and chemistry, astronomy, and
medicine; they who dotted the Sarcen Empire with  universities and who built at
Bagdad and Cairo the most renowned universities of  the world. During those
centuries of ecclesiastical despotism when the Christian church suppressed all
intellectual activities save those that were theological, causing the talent that
reproduces to supplant the genius that creates. Mohammedans did all in their
power to encourage and stimulate research in every  branch of human inquiry.
The Moors or Mohammedans added to the beauty and grandeur of Spain. For
centuries art, science, literature, and  chivalry flourished among them, while the
rest of Europe was still sunk in the  gloom of the Dark Ages. The Moors were the
most ingenious and industrious of the subjects of Spain. Their expulsion from
Spain in 1610, was one of the chief  causes of decadence of that country, for
both agriculture and industry fell into  decay after their departure.
Mohammedanism makes no distinction between high and low, rich and poor; it
is like the sky, it has room for  all. The Koran should be of interest to all readers.
It is the Bible of the Mohammedans, ruling over the customs and  actions of over
200 millions of people. It is a work of importance whether considered from a
religious philosophical, or literary viewpoint... The Moorish Science Temple
of America has received some opposition and criticism. In the main
the opposition  has come from certain Christian ministers. They have
expressed themselves as  being opposed to our propagation of the
Mohammedan religion. Possibly because the promotion of the Mohammedan
faith among our people in the United States is considered by them in terms as
something new. Whatever the reasons may be for their opposition, the legal
right to oppose citizens, individuals and organizations alike for their religious
belief does not exist in the United States. The door of religious freedom made by
the American Constitution swings open to all, and people may enter through it
and worship as they desire. Without religious  freedom, no search for truth
would be possible; without religious freedom, no discovery of truth would be
useful; without religious freedom, religious  progress would be checked and we
would no longer march forward toward the nobler life which the future holds for
the races of men; without religious freedom,  there would be no inspiration to
lift our heads and gaze with fearlessness into  the vast beyond, seeking a
hope eternal...

NOBLE DREW ALI,  The Moorish Guide Oct-26-1928

So, Prophet Noble Drew Ali told the Moorish Americans, "The Koran should be of
interest to all readers. It is the Bible of the Mohammedans, ruling over the
customs and  actions of over 200 millions of people."

MASTER FARD MUHAMMAD AND
WALLACE DAVID FORD IS THE SAME
PERSON. NOTE: THE SAME
HAIRLINE, JAWLINE, EARS AND
ETC...Today, the Nation of Islam
reject the notion that Wallace Dodd
Ford and W.F. Fard is the same
person.
According to "THE BIOGRAPHY OF NOBLE DREW ALI; EXHUMING OF A NATION"
by Elihu N. Pleasant-Bey, in the upper left-hand corner is Farrad Mohamet-El of
Detroit, Michigan Temple #4 aka David Ford-El. This is also confirmed in
"REPARATIONS = WAR WHAT WILL FREE AND UNITE BLACK PEOPLE?" by Dr. Ali
Muhammad, former member of the (NOI) Nation of Islam states, Master Fard
Muhammad under the alias David Ford-El pictured in the upper left-hand
corner... However, the above picture gives you the dates October 15, 16, 17, 18,
19, 20 of 1928. On January 20, 1926, Fard was arrested for violating the
California Prohibition law and a month later on February 15, 1926 for violation of
the State Poison Act. He was sentenced to six months to six years at San
Quentin Penitentiary on June 12, 1926 for 'allegedly' selling narcotics in his
restaurant. Presumingly, he had served three years in San Quentin before
gaining release on May 27, 1929. (See Dr. Wesley Muhammad, "MASTER FARD
MUHAMMAD, WHO IS HE, WHO IS HE NOT", pg. 39). However, based on the
above picture this 'may' have happen several (at least 7) months earlier or
maybe, it is just a case of look-a-like? (Note:The FBI Case No.56062, Matches The
Fingerprints Of The Person Known As W.F.  Mohammad. The Federal Bureau Of
Investigation, United States Department Of  Justice has this In Chicago Illinois,
On February 9, 1943 A.D. And Ford was arrested by the Detroit Police
Department On 5/26/33, With Case No. 45138).

NOTE: THE SAME LIPS, EARS, NOSE AND ETC...MOORS FOR YEARS HAVE STATED
THAT THIS IS DAVID FORD-EL, THE SAME ONE CALLED MASTER FARD
MUHAMMAD ETC... ELIJAH MUHAMMAD TAUGHT THAT WE CELEBRATE
SAVIOUR’S DAY IN THE MONTH OF FEBRUARY TO COMMEMORATE THE BIRTH
OF OUR SAVIOR, MASTER FARD MUHAMMAD. HE TAUGHT US THAT MASTER
FARD MUHAMMAD WAS BORN ON FEBRUARY 26, 1877 IN MECCA, ARABIA.
FEBRUARY 26, 1877 WAS THE BIRTH OF THE ANCIENT ARABIC ORDER OF THE
NOBLES OF THE MYSTIC SHRINE AND IT’S INCORPORATION IN THE WEST BY
WALTER FLEMING AND WILLIAM FLORENCE
http://www.bucklesunlimited.com/images/Found.gif …SYMBOLIZING THAT
MASTER FARD MUHAMMAD BROUGHT THEM INTO THE SHRINE OF ISLAM.
ELIJAH MUHAMMAD TAUGHT THAT THE SCIENTISTS DISAGREED WITH MASTER
FARD MUHAMMAD WANTING TO SAVE THE DUMB NEGRO FROM ALLAH’S
WRATH. HOWEVER, HE WAS REALLY REFERRING TO THE SHRINERS WHO DID
NOT WANT MFM TO BRING US INTO THE SHRINE BECAUSE THEY BELIEVED WE
WERE UNWORTHY TO JOIN THEIR MASONIC LODGE. IF YOU STUDY THE
SHRINERS, YOU FIND THAT THEIR LODGES ARE NUMBERED JUST LIKE ELIJAH
MUHAMMAD’S MOSQUES. YOU HAVE MOSQUE #2, #12 #7 ETC. THE NOI ALSO
HAS LESSONS IN THE FORM OF QUESTIONS, AND THE SHRINERS HAVE THE SAME.
DAVID FORD-EL (MASTER FARD MUHAMMAD) WAS A MASONIC-SHRINER AND
POSSIBLY A THEOSOPHY (ROSICRUCIAN) MEMBER.

Wallace (Warith Deen) Muhammad

The Messenger’s son, Wallace (Warith Deen) Muhammad, who took over the

NOI (Nation of Islam) in 1975, said in several speeches that he was
in communication with the founder, saying, “Master Fard 
Muhammad is not dead, brothers
 and sisters, he is physically alive and I talk with him whenever I get ready. I don't
talk to him in any spooky way. I go to the telephone and dial his number.”

Nevertheless, Warith Deen  Muhammad claimed that Fard had returned to the

United States under the name Muhammad Abdullah. In 1976, W.D. had
appointed Muhammad Abdullah as Imam of Muhammad's  Mosque #77 in
Oakland, California. The November 26, 1976, issue of the NOI  journal Bilalian
News reports Muhammad Abdullah's first khutbah at the mosque and shows a
photo. ["BILALIAN NEWS," Nov 26, 1976, pdf]  W.D. Mohammad did not state
that Muhammad Abdullah was Fard until after Abdullah's death in 1992, and
Abdullah himself never publicly claimed to be Fard. Muhammad Abdullah
himself denied that he was Fard, saying "It is all right to say I am Fard
Muhammad for Wallace (Warith) D. Muhammad. I taught him some lessons.
But I am not the same person who taught Elijah Muhammad and I am not
God.” However, in 1981, a Pakistani scholar Z.I. Alsari researched Fard's life and
claimed that Fard was identical with Muhammad Abdullah, a Pakistani
Ahmadiyya Muslim who had been an advisor of Elijah Muhammad's since the
late 1950s and who was the tutor of his son and eventual successor Warith Deen
Muhammad. In 1991, there was a report in an orthodox Muslim newspaper that
carried a story that Fard was alive and living in California and worshipped as an
orthodox Muslim. W.D. Mohammad did not state that Muhammad Abdullah was
Fard until after Abdullah's death in 1992, and Abdullah himself never publicly
claimed to be Fard. In Fayetteville, North Carolina during the summer of
2006, Bro. Michael Wortham aka Michael El Babasuut Onkiba Bey video taped
Bilal Muhammad, who was in his early 70's at the time told us that he knew
Master Fard Muhammad personally and that he worked with him in Fard's
restaurant in Oakland, California during the late 1960s. He was taught and
trained by Master Fard Muhammad.  
Claude Andrew Clegg III's "AN ORIGINAL MAN: The Life and Times of Elijah
Muhammad" states,
“In Detroit, he joined a variety of organizations-notably, Marcus Garvey's proto-
black-nationalist
movement, the United Negro Improvement Association (UNIA), and the Black
Shriners; but neither of these kept his allegiance. In a further effort to improve
himself, Poole also joined the Moorish Science Temple of America (MSTA) and
converted to its vaguely Islam-like religion, Founded in 1913 by a Black Shriner
named Timothy Drew (who renamed himself Noble Drew Ali), the MSTA
introduced such Islam-like features as the crescent-and-star motif, the use of
Arabic personal names, and the prohibition of pork, but it also foretold the
destruction of all whites and promoted Drew as a prophet.”

Bro. Hakim H.Y. Bey told us in January 8th, 2011 at the Prophet Noble Drew Ali
Celebration that there is empirical evidence that shows that Robert Pool(e)-Bey
(later known as Elijah Muhammad), his wife Clara, and his two brothers,
John and Edward were indeed members and Adepts of the Moorish Science
Temple of America in Detroit, Michigan under Supreme Grand Governor / Sheik
Lomax-Bey (read "NOBLE DREW ALI AND THE MOORISH SCIENCE TEMPLE OF
AMERICA: THE MOVEMENT THAT STARTED IT ALL" by Sheik Way-El). According
to "THE MUQARRABEEN FILE BOOK VOL 1." by Brother
R. Edwards-El, A.S.D.M., Author Brother J. Barnes-Bey, Co-Author, it states,
"There are alleged documents that claims that Elijah Muhammad was a member
of Moorish temple number four in Detroit Michigan where he is listed under the
name of "R. (Robert) Pool Bey", along with a "D. (David) Ford El."

Honorable Elijah Muhammad

Note: Honorable Elijah Muhammad's feet are at a 45 degree angle or the Master
Mason stance.

"Islam has been practiced in said secrecy call Higher Masonry, Shriner, that is a

small degree of his knowledge of Islam taught in said secrecy by that society".
However, the real secret to Freemasonry, is that there is no secret, it’s about
you…Hiram Abiff, the Sun People (Kushites - Melanites), or Children of the Light
(Phree Messens) and anyone who is willing to take the time to investigate this
subject could get a working knowledge of the order from the first degree
(Entered Apprentice) to the thirty-third (Sovereign Grand Inspector General of
the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry) and / or the Knight
Templar of the York Rite Side…Muhammad stated: "I will not go into the history
of the Masons since I was a Mason myself once and I swore, too, not reveal the
secrets. Masons who have reached such degrees as 32nd and 33rd are not called
Masons. They are called Moslem Shriners…When you take the 33rd degree you
are taught to greet each other; 'As- Salaam Alaikum'. You are taught Islam from
then on because you become a Muslim when that degree is conferred on you. At
least you are supposed to be a believer in Islam. They teach you, almost from the
start, to turn your face to the east." Elijah Muhammad stated" "Only in higher
freemasonry is there a little teachings at the top, mostly of this particular order
that mentions the teachings of Almighty God Allah, but (you have to pay a lot of
money to become a 33'rd degree Mason... A Mason cannot be a good Mason
unless he knows the Holy Qur'an and follow its teachings ... "Muhammad further
states: "You don't need to join Masonry to be a Muslim. It is free and why would
you buy that or spend money for that which brings you know gain? Regardless to
how high you go in Masonry, you are still a Negro. And you are not treated as
equal to white masons. But if you accept Islam, you are forcing all to recognize
you". "If you come and follow me (Elijah Muhammad), I will give to you the
meaning of all those degrees and your ritual…Don't go and buy anymore
Masonry, come and accept free Islam. I've been waiting on the Masons to come
over and join me for years and now I'm going to tell on you if you don't. You
won't get anymore members if I start telling the truth as I know it. I know your
First Degree to the Thirty Third Degrees. I know exactly what it means but you
don't know what it means. I also have a few more degrees than that."

MOORISH CIRCLE 7
According to "MOORISH CIRCLE 7:The Rise of The Islamic Faith Among Blacks in
America and it's Masonic Origins" by Keith Moore, 32 states on pgs.122 and 123
After the collapse of the temple, a new organization called the Nation of Islam
was formed. The organization was founded by Wallace D. Fard who was a
follower of Ali (Noble Drew Ali), though some would later say otherwise. Fard
founded the temple of Islam in Detroit, Michigan around 1930. At least one
source notes that both he and his protégé, Elijah Muhammad were members of
the Moorish Science Temple and exposed to the teachings of Ali (Noble Drew
Ali). Originally Muhammad was known as Elijah Poole Bey, a Moorish name.

CULT OF RACISTS AND SEPARATISTS: The Farrakhan Controversy Part VII" by
Sergeant Sam Smith
 
Elijah Muhammad was born Robert “Elijah” Poole in Sandersville, Georgia, the
seventh of thirteen children to William Poole, Sr. (1868–1942), a Baptist lay
preacher and member of the UNIA under Marcus Garvey, and Mariah Hall (1873–
1958), a homemaker and sharecropper. Elijah and his family migrated north to
Detroit from Georgia in 1923. Elijah moved north to escape the racism of the
south. He worked
in several industrial plants and joined a variety of African-
American organizations including the Black Shriners. Elijah later incorporated
several Masonic Lodge beliefs into the doctrines of the Nation of Islam (NOI).
Elijah Poole also joined Marcus Garvey’s “Back to Africa Movement.”He accepted
Garvey’s
ideology of black pride, self-help, and race separation; all later became
major tenants of the (NOI) Nation of Islam. Elijah Poole rose to the rank of
corporal in the Chicago / Detroit division of the UNIA within two years of joining.
Poole also became a member of the Timothy Drew Ali’s Moorish Science Temple
of America (MSTA). Ironically, Elijah‘s first experience with Islam came at the
urging of his father, a Baptist minister, who was already familiar with Black
Islam. He urged him to attend lectures of the Moorish Science Temple because
he respected the Moors’ doctrines of racial solidarity and black economic
development. Elijah attended the meetings at the advice of his father and as a
result he left the Baptist church and became a Black Muslim. By 1930, Wallace
Muhammad had come to Detroit and formed Allah's Temple of Islam. He
attracted as many as 25,000 members with his proto-Islamic, Afro-centric
teachings.[7] But, Muhammad taught dogma that differed greatly from orthodox
Islam and added elements from Marcus Garvey's black nationalist movement
(read, "THE RISE AND FALL OF ELIJAH MUHAMMAD" by Karl Evanzz).

Elijah Muhammad was no newcomer to black separatist movements. His father

had been an organizer for Marcus Garvey's "Back to Africa" movement, which
reached its zenith in the 1920s. Robert 'Elijah' Poole traveled to Chicago to hear
Garvey speak and was greatly moved by his words. He joined Garvey's Universal
Negro Improvement Association and became a corporal in the Chicago UNIA
(ccnmtl.columbia.edu/projects/mmt/mxp/people/753_I.html). Robert 'Elijah'
Poole joined the Moorish Science Temple of America (MSTA) in 1928, becoming
Elijah Poole-Bey. Moreover, as mentioned previously, "according to Hakim H.Y.
Bey, his name and several family members names were on the MSTA Detroit
Temple #4 enrollment under Supreme Grand Governor / Grand Sheik James
Lomax-Bey." In, "THE RISE AND FALL OF ELIJAH MUHAMMAD" by Karl Evanzz, pg
67-69. "Interestingly, Elijah Muhammad reportedly attended meetings at an
MSTA temple in Detroit. Though he consistently denied joining the group
founded by Noble Drew Ali (at least publically)." Even so, within a year of the
arrival of Fard Muhammad in Detroit 1930, Clara Poole, Elijah Poole and two of
his brothers joined Fard’s Nation of Islam. Poole became one Fard’s most trusted
and ardent followers and rose swiftly through the ranks to become the Nation of
Islam’s chief Lieutenant. He was appointed as a Minister of Islam in early 1934.
Elijah Muhammad took control of Temple No. 1, but only after battles with
other potential leaders, including his brother. In 1935, as these battles
became increasingly fierce, Muhammad left Detroit and settled his family in
Chicago. Still facing death threats, Muhammad left his family there and traveled
to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where he founded Temple No. 3, and eventually to
Washington, D.C., where he founded Temple No. 4. Following his return to
Chicago, Elijah Muhammad was firmly in charge of the Nation of Islam. The
organization had retained its membership level during his imprisonment, and its
membership increased after his return. From four temples in 1946, the Nation of
Islam grew to 15 by 1955. By 1959, there were 50 temples in 22 states. By the
time Elijah Muhammad passed form in 1975, there were 75 Temples across
America. Also by the 1970s, the Nation of Islam owned bakeries, barber shops,
coffee shops, grocery stores, laundromats, a printing plant, retail stores,
numerous real estate holdings, and a fleet of tractor trailers, plus farmland in
Michigan, Alabama, and Georgia. In 1972 the Nation of Islam took controlling
interest in a bank, the Guaranty Bank and Trust Co. Nation of Islam-owned
schools expanded until, by 1974, the group had established schools in 47 cities
throughout the United States. In 1972, Muhammad told followers that the
Nation of Islam had a net worth of $75 million.
According to former National Grand Sheik of the Moorish Science Temple Divine
and National Movement of North America, Inc. and author of "THE NEGRO, THE
BLACK, THE MOOR!" Clarence Reynolds-El, now known as, Rommani M. Amenu-
El, has stated that around 1984 Minister Farrakhan told him personally, that his
teacher Honorable Elijah Muhammad was a member of the Moorish Science
Temple of America under Prophet Noble Drew Ali. Rommani M. Amenu-El also
stated that Bro. Wajid Bey, who is 88 now, told him that he meet Honorable
Elijah Muhammad around 1955 and that the Honorable Elijah Muhammad told
him face to face that he was a member of the Moorish Science Temple of
America under Prophet Noble Drew Ali. Although the Nation of Islam denies any
historical connection with the Moorish Science Temple.

"THEOLOGY OF TIME" The Messenger of Allah states, "I have always had a very
high opinion of both the late Noble Drew Ali and Marcus Garvey and admired
their courage in helping our people (the so-called Negroes) and appreciated their
work, both of these men were fine Muslims. The followers of Noble Drew Ali and
Marcus Garvey should now follow me and co-operate with us in our work
because we are only trying to finish up what those before us had started. In
Islam alone we shall find the success we desire, so join on to the Nation now and
give us a chance to help all of our people in America... "The Black Muslims
learned much from Marcus Garvey and Noble Drew Ali.  Like those earlier
prophets of black nationalism, they capitalize on the lower-class Black Man's
despair and reservations about the white man, and they have developed black
consciousness into a confession of faith." 

Excerpted from a message delivered by Minister Louis Farrakhan on July 27, 

2003. It  is as follows: "Before  Elijah Muhammad, you looked at yourself as a
Negro. One of our most wonderful Black organizations was the United Negro
Improvement Association, which showed that we still had growing to do. What a
wonderful, wonderful teacher Marcus Mosiah Garvey was. The Honorable Elijah
Muhammad loved and admired him. Noble Drew Ali is the father of what you
call the Moorish Americans or the Moorish Scientists. Noble Drew Ali was
admired by the Honorable Elijah Muhammad because he said that Noble Drew
Ali gave us a start in the direction toward Islam. The Moorish brothers wore
fezzes with the crescent and the tassels swinging freely and they wore the name
Bey or El."
The Allah Temple of Islam, precursor of the modern  NOI, was more radical
than the Moorish Temple of Science. Many of the males still wore the distinctive
red fezzes, and dressed themselves in smart suits. Like Drew Ali, Fard charged
believers to have their names changed from their “slave names” to Muslim
names and were issued with "identification cards”
(2ndphilolog.wordpress.com/nation-of-islam/).
The Nation of Islam and MSTA shared similar beliefs and practices. One tradition,
men wearing the
maroon fez, was outlawed by Muhammad in 1935 ("THE RISE AND FALL OF
ELIJAH MUHAMMAD" by Karl Evanzz, n. 33, p. 528). 

(Note: Before Fard Mohammed was called Master, he was called Prophet, like
Prophet Noble Drew Ali, because originally, he was the Re-Incarnated Prophet
(Noble Drew Ali). Also, notice even in this picture Prophet W. D. Fard is in the
upper left corner, the same placement of David Ford-El in the 1st Annual
Moorish Science Temple of America Convention).

Here sits "The Pope," who came to New York -- the Empire State, and sat under
the Royal Crest of the MoorsHead, while those who are descendants of Moors,
debate as  to the impacting validity of the honor of THEIR direct  ancestors."  Taj
Tarik Bey

There is plenty of more pieces of this puzzle that are needed, but one thing for
certain all of our major leaders were part of the occult, whether it was Phree
Messenry (Free Masons), Shrinerism, Rosicrucian, Theosophy, Sufism or etc...our
greatest teachers were involved. The Honorable Elijah Muhammad inherited the
leadership from Master Fard Muhammad  who was, himself, believed to have
succeeded Noble Drew Ali. All of these men held Masonic titles, i.e., noble,
honorable and master. As masons, they'd  taken vows of secrecy and could not
reveal the deeper wisdom to the uninitiated. So they spoke in codes. So
deep and multilayered were  those codes that few, to this day, have a notion of
what they were really  teaching.

In the late 1920's, when there were thousands of Moors in the Moorish
Science Temple of America, the Holy Prophet told the Moors "The membership
is going to dwindle down to a handful, but keep the doors open, and I will
drive the Asiatics in." The Holy Prophet said, "When I drive the Asiatics in, it’s 
going to take 10 secretaries, just to write the names down."

Thus, the original (MSTA) Moorish Science Temple of America died with Prophet
Noble Drew Ali, the rightful successor Supreme Grand Sheik Edward Mealy-El
alledgely never appointed a successor. His possessions were turned over to his
wife Sis. Delia Mealy-El, who attempted to keep the one MSTA left Chicago
Temple #1. Edward Mealy-El’s portion later fell because Sis. Delia Mealy-El
attempted to put her lover William Morris-El in office, as head of the MSTA
Chicago temple #1. Even, Sis. Delia is reported to have said "there is no more
MSTA". All in all, the various factions of the Great Schism are thus disconnected
from the original 1928 body (the MSTA-incorporated religious society),
and therefore cannot be connected to its head, The Prophet Noble Drew Ali, who
is the founder of the MHTS (Moorish Holy Temple of Science), which was later
incorporated as the MSTA (Moorish Science Temple of America). This is why
the U.S. government allowed Charles Kirkman-Bey to start his own
organization called the  MSTA Inc. it is not the MSTA or the MHTS, but a copy of
them (a religious belief can not be copy written), yet still has many of the same
religious laws and tenents. This is the reason that Charles Kirkman-Bey lost in
court to Supreme Sheik Edward Mealy-El, as the authentic head of the MSTA,
because Charles Kirkman-Bey demostration (MSTA, Inc.) is not the MSTA, nor is
it  under "Our Authority" nor the Constitution and By-Laws, nor the Moorish
Charter, etc. Therefore, the MSTA, Inc. is a completely separte body all together
from the MHTS and its incorporation MSTA. Charles Kirkman-Bey's group the
MSTA, Inc. were still using the MHTS (Moorish Holy Temple of Science) name
also in 1934, but later that year or so, began to distant itself from the MHTS civic
side (see Prince Ka Saadi El).

Regardless, Charles Kirkman-Bey became the head of what would eventually be

the largest group, and which currently claims the name "Moorish Science Temple
of America, Inc". Reportedly the largest faction, as of 1996 MSTA Inc. had over
130 temples. The Reincarnated Temples, led by the Adept John Givens-El, who
thereafter called himself "Noble Drew Ali, Reincarnated". This faction has since
reportedly split into seven factions, and as of 1994 were represented over
30 affiliated temples. The third and smallest faction was lead by Bro. Edward
Mealy-El, as the Supreme Grand Sheik. This faction is still in existence, but
with the fewest adherents out of the three. This group began with a few
temples. But throughout the country the Prophet’s temples are reappearing
throughout the US and abroad. Their quoted mission is to broadcast the
Prophet’s original authority to all 4 corners of the Earth. In addition, are
continuing the works of Noble Drew Ali. Temple #1, #7, #16, #21, #23, #24, #25,
#33 and other study groups through out America and Abroad and they included
in the States of Alabama, Maryland, Washington D.C., Virginia, Louisiana, New
York, California, Ohio, Missouri. Illinois, Florida, New Jersey, and Wisconsin etc.
 
There are several problems with the Supreme Grand Sheik lineage, especially,
from those who follow Supreme Grand Sheik Edward Mealy-El.

According to Supreme Grand Sheik David Bailey-El, Supreme Grand Sheik Edward
Mealy-El's step-grandson states the lineage as follows:

Bro. E. Mealy-El (Deceased)

Bro. W. Morris-El (Deceased)
Bro. E. Walton-Bey (Deceased)
Bro. W. Harlan-Bey (Deceased)
Bro. O. Lewis-El (Deceased) 
Bro. D. Bailey-El (Retired Oct. 1992)
Bro. E. Braswell-Bey (Removed from office on April 10th, 2005 AD. - as per
Affidavit #0612218011 filed for record: May 2nd, 2005 AD.)
Bro. D. Bailey-El - Present Supreme Grand Sheik 

However, according to Supreme Grand Sheik Emanuel Braswell-Bey, allegedly

this is the correct Supreme Grand Sheik lineage...

E Mealy-El was appointed the Supreme Grand Sheik October 17th, 1928 by
the Prophet and before E Mealy -El veiled the form, on November 15th, 1934,
Brother William Morris-El was appointed Supreme Grand Sheik. Brother William
Morris-El was the Supreme Grand Sheik from Nov. 1934 to October 1935.
Brother E Walton-Bey was appointed Supreme Grand Sheik from Oct. 1935 to
August 1936. Brother W. Harlan-Bey was appointed the Supreme Grand Sheik by
the Supreme Grand Council from Aug. 1936 to June 1944. Brother O. Lewis-El
was appointed the Supreme Grand Sheik from June 1944 to Nov. 1968. Brother
D. Bailey-El was appointed Supreme Grand Sheik from Nov. 1968 to Oct. 1992.
Brother P. Davis-El was appointed the Supreme Grand Sheik from Oct. 1992 to
Nov. 1997. Brother E. Braswell-Bey was appointed from Nov. 1997 to the present
day.

Nevertheless, according to the Supreme Grand Sheik Chief Minister Ra Saadi-Bey

of the MSTA - 1928 the proper lineage is as follows: 

*Prophet Noble Drew Ali

1st Supreme Grand Sheik Saint E. Mealy-El
2nd Supreme Grand Sheik W. Morris-El 
3rd Supreme Grand Sheik P. Davis-El
4th Supreme Grand Sheik (Shaykh) Waleed A. Naeem Bey (Deceased)
5th Supreme Grand Sheik (Shaykh) Ra Saadi El (We recognize the following!
Brother R. Jones-Bey - 1934; John Given-El [Reincarnated] Temple - 1934; Bro. E.
Braswell-Bey [Original Temple #1 - 1928]; Bro. C. Jackson-Bey - 1975; those
formerly under Bro. Barne-El - 1958; Frederick Turner-El - 1934-1974
www.motheriscallingforallmoors.com) (Note: Supreme Grand Sheik (Shaykh) Ra
Saadi El's son Prince Ka Saadi El is also Supreme Grand Sheik of the Moorish
Science Temple of America (Allah's Temple). 

Then, we have the position of National Grand Sheik of the MSTA under the
leadership of Adept Sheik John Given-El

*Prophet Noble Drew Ali

Adept John Given-El (Moorish Holy Temple of Science later called the
Reincarnated Moorish Science Temple of America) (Note: We agree with
Supreme Grand Sheik (Shaykh) Ra Saadi El's statement, "We give much credit to
Bro. John Givens El as he kept to the pure teachings of Islam and under his
leadership there was many Moorish Business established such as Moorish
cafeteria, Moorish schools, Moorish grocery stores, Moorish shoe shops and
many other Moorish business his Moorish community was a tight nit group."

1. Grand Sheik Hommett Anderson-El, the Moderater / Teacher of the Moorish

Holy Temple of Science, Inc.
2. & 3. The Dingle-El Brothers (Grand Sheik Richardson Dingle-El continued the
Reincarnated Moorish Science Temple of America and even started calling
himself the "Reincarnated Prophet" and his brother Grand Sheik Timothy Dingle-
El formed the Resurrection Moorish Science Temple of America Inc.).
Richardson Dingle-El
4. Brother J. Plummer-El, National Grand Sheik
5. Grand Sheik Clarence Reynolds-El, former National Grand Sheik now named
Rommani M. Amenu-El
a. (Offshoot) Grand Sheik Joel Bratton Bey, The Moorish Science Temple Divine
and National Movement, of North America, Inc., No. 13. The Moorish American
National Republic. 

(Note: *The Present National head of the Reincarnated Moorish Science Temples
are Bro. Willie-Bey headquarters 3810 Wabash Ave, Chicago, Illinois and
Bro. Ronald-Bey located in Atlanta, Georgia).

Timothy Dingle-El, in his book  "THE RESURRECTION: MOORISH SCIENCE

TEMPLE OF AMERICA, INC. THE TRUTH: BE YOURSELF AND NOT -- SOMEBODY
ELSE" The
title "Supreme Grand Sheik (for Timothy Dingle-El) is used. Timothy Dingle-El
died in 1980 and was succeeded by his wife Louise Dingle-El, as Prophetess” from
his group came at least five separate leaderships;

1. Grand Sheikess / Governess Sis. L. Dingle-El, who took charge of Temple 13-A

(and 13-B) from the original Temple #13 founded by G. Cook Bey-G.G. From the
work of the Dingle El brothers came the splits of the Temple No. 13, and the
creation of a fraction headed in Baltimore, MD, called the Noble Order of
Moorish Sufis in Baltimore. Sultan Rafi Sharif Bey on July 7, 1957, this group later
lead to the founding of the Moorish Orthodox Church and the Moorish League.
The Order of the Resurrection with its Second Heaven Order of four degrees was
co-written by Sheik Rafi Sharif Bey and Sheik Timothy Dingle El.
2. Grand Sheik William Rice-Bey
3. Grand Sheik Hayus Sample-Bey, who now calls himself "The Prophet" 
4. Grand Sheik Jerome Graham-Bey
5. Grand Sheik Clarance Prather-El

Then of course, you have Supreme Grand Advisor and Moderator of the MSTA
Inc.
*Prophet Noble Drew Ali - According to Supreme Grand Sheik Edward Mealy-El,
the only Supreme Grand Advisor and Moderator is the Prophet, the Supreme
Grand Chairman etc...

1st Supreme Grand Advisor and Moderator Charles Kirkman-Bey (1929-1959),

actually On September 26th, 1930, Supreme Grand Sheik Edward Mealy-El sent
Charles Kirkman-Bey an official Temple letter and to other Temples, that the
credentials of those listed were REVOKED; Charles Kirkman-Bey and F.
Nelson-Bey, also several others as mentioned above), by 1934, Charles Kirkman-
Bey formed the MSTA Inc. and continue using the title until his death in 1959).
(Note: Bro. Kirkman Bey was never made a Sheik or given any official position
by Prophet Drew Ali; he however was made an Adept due to him being place
within the affairs of the Prophet due to his visit in Cuba).
2nd Supreme Grand Advisor and Moderator F. Nelson-Bey (1959-1962)
3rd Supreme Grand Advisor and Moderator J. Blakely-Bey (1963-1971)
4th Supreme Grand Advisor and Moderator R. Love-El - He became the 4th
Supreme Grand Advisor and  Moderator in 1971, a title later changed to
(National) Grand Sheik and Moderator of the Moorish Science Temple of
America Inc.
5th (National) Grand Sheik & Moderator Brother R. Jones-Bey, 

Therefore, who to believe? We have never seen letters of credentials for the
Supreme Grand Sheik position under Supreme Grand Sheik Edward Mealy-El in
concession for any of the above alleged lineages and since it is documented that
Edward Mealy-El was chosen by Prophet Noble Drew Ali to be the Supreme
Grand Sheik, the position next to him, then it would only be right to show the
letters of credentals to prove which lineage is the said one true lineage. Common
sense, tells us that obviously the leadership of the MSTA Inc. under (National)
Grand Sheik & Modertor Brother R. Jones-Bey doesn't have the proof. The MSTA
Inc. do not even used the "Supreme Grand Sheik" title, as well as, neither does
the MSTA fraction(s) under John Given-El. They all uses the "Natonal Grand
Sheik" title instead. However, upon investigation, we find that the Prophet never
appointed a National Grand Sheik. Also, neither John Given-El, nor Charles
Kirkman-Bey were ever given the title 'Sheik' by Prophet Noble Drew Ali. Of
course, none of this would make a difference, if it was not for the constant
reference to others being "bootleg groups." We would not have to expose these
truths and blatant facts. Therefore, relinquish your egos and lets' really form a
"United Moorish Divine and National Movement!" 

Even, so, there are nearly 260 temples between the (3) major groups. This is an
excellent work, however, as you see the Moorish National Divine Movement is
not immune from fragmentation and many are claiming to be the 'ONLY' True
Moorish Science Temple of America. The 'ONLY' Truth of the matter is that there
is ''NO' one True Moorish Science Temple of America, seemingly, this died with
Holy Prophet Noble Drew Ali, the Supreme Grand Chairman and Edward Mealey-
El, the Supreme Grand Sheik of the M.S.T.A.. Also, there is a serious problem in
which that needs to be corrected. In 1934, the late Supreme Grand Advisor and
Moderator Charles Kirkman-Bey changed the status of the movement from a
religious organization to a non-profit organization, hence, MSTA, Inc. But many
other MHTS / MSTA and etc...has followed the same path and have become
merely non-profit organizations. The Charter of the Temple "IS" the Mandate.
The Charter for the Temples have the words "Charter Warrant & Dispensation"
on it. In International law, Charters are seen as Treaties. Through some
investigation some Moors did, there is only three organizations that has "Charter
Warrant & Dispensation" on their charter. That's the Vatican, the Masons and
the Moorish Science Temple of America. The Vatican copied what Prophet Noble
Drew Ali did with setting up the Moorish Science Temple of America. After 1963,
no other organization was able to do what the Vatican and the Moorish Science
Temple of America did. Any church that want real power have to be under the
Vatican umbrella, all Moorish Science Temples are "suppose" to be under the
original formula that Prophet Noble Drew Ali put the Temple in, which was the
"Hurds-Smith Revised Statute". The Hurds-Smith Revised Statute is thousands of
pages long and shows every single aspect of running a nation and government.
The Moorish Science Temples that are 501c3 "CAN NOT" "activate" the Mandate,
which "IS" the Temple Charter because they are under the "jurisdiction" of the
de facto Federal government, the I.R.S., the said Crown and the Vatican with
"privileges" (http://www.irs.gov/charities/charitable/article/
0,,id=96099,00.html). Temples that "are under" the Hurds-Smith Revised Statute
"CAN" do real nation building, make political moves, and set up "processes" to
help re-educate the lost de-nationalized people about law, history, their divine
creed, birth rights / divine rights (quote, Moorish Brooklyn Intelligence).

The Holy Prophet Noble Drew Ali also said, "This is no social organization, it is a
divine and national movement." 
But, yet this is exactly what many said Grand Sheiks has turned this into,
especially those that fall under the 501c3 status. Once again, the Moorish
Science Temples that are 501c3 "CAN NOT" "activate" the Mandate, which "IS"
the Temple Charter under the Hurds-Smith Revised Statutes, because they are
under the "jurisdiction" of the de facto Federal government, the I.R.S., the
Crown and the Vatican with
"privileges" (http://www.irs.gov/charities/charitable/article/
0,,id=96099,00.html). U.S.A. is a RELIGIOUS CORPORATION managed by Queen
Elizabeth and UNDER CONTROL OF THE VATICAN. Therefore, ALL said MOORS
contracting with the U.S. / U.S.A. are Chattel Property of the Vatican. Go to the
www.manta.com website, owned by Dunn & Bradstreet. If you research the
private corporation called 'the UNITED STATES Government', you will find that
the 'OWNER' is listed as being 'Archbishop Deric J. McLeod, of The Basilica of the
National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, of Washington, D.C. Since
Archbishops of the Vatican are sworn to poverty, then, the Archbishop can only
be the named agent for the secular (so-called) Roman Empire, situate in the
city/state called the Vatican. According to "ELEMENTS OF ECCLESIASTIAL LAW"
20: The Pope can abolish any law in the United States. Why, because, it is a
Religious Corporation, a said Christian Society (see dvd / video "HOLY ROMAN
EMPIRE vs. ROMAN EMPIRE" by True Master. He states that were two said
Empires, one the said "Black Noblity" of the "HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE [COPTIC
MOORS]" and the other, the said Roman Empire [NOT really an Empire, but a
Republic or nation state] and when the said Roman Empire got out of line, the
OTTOMAN EMPIRE of Sovereign Moors came in to nearly shut it down).
Furthermore, here is partial list of various MSTAs and etc...being under the
control of the Vatican (see Nanya Akh Heru El).

There it is either out of ignorance or conspiracy? This is the prime example of

Prophet Noble Drew Ali's statement "If you are not careful, your own brothers
will try to put you in slavery."

We, of the Moorish (Holy) Temple of Science (of the World) (civic organization)

have adopted as its corporate name the Moorish Science Temple of America
(foreign corporation / religious organization) under the religious charter. The
Prophet put our movement under the protection of the First Amendment of the
organic Constitution for the united States 'Republic' of (North) America. Under
this protection no one could challenge what he taught to his follwers.
The (MHTS) Moorish Holy Temple of Science (civic organization) / (MSTA)
Moorish Science of America (religious organization) called the (MNDM)
Moorish National and Divine Movement is a NOT for Profit,
Theocratic Constitional Monarchy, a separate body-politic, a lawful incorporate
political unit (nation or organized state or society by nature) having such a form
of (De Jure) Government it is to the (MNDM) Moorish National and Divine
Movement that we pledge our Allegiance while obeying the laws, Articles of
Association (1774), Declaration of Independence (1776), Articles of
Confederation (1781), Barbary Treaties (1786-1816), Treaty of Peace and
Friendship between Morocco and united States, Constitution for united States
'Republic' of (North) America (1787-1791), Treaty of Camp Holmes (1835) and
etc...

"PROPHET MAKES PLEA TO NATION"

Our Divine and national Movement stands for the specific grand principles of
Love, Truth, Peace, Freedom, and Justcie, and I, The Prophet, am applying to all
loyal, faithful Moors, members, and the American citizens to help me in my great
uplifting acts of uplifting fallen humanity among the Asiatic race and nation. for I
have suffered and severely in the past through misunderstandings of what the
movement was dedicated to.

It is the Great God Allah, alone that guides the destiny of this Divine and
National Movement. I know all true American citizens are identified by national
descent names to answer and apply to the free national constitution of this free
National Republic of the United States of America. That's why I am calling on all
true national citizens to help me morally and financially in my great work I am
looking to help this national divine title of the government in which we live. For
without a free national name, with a descent flag of your forefathers, there is
not a national divine title of the government in which we live. This is from your
true and Divine Prophet unto all American and foreign sympathizers.

PROPHET NOBLE DREW ALI, The Moorish Guide Feb-15-1929

"A DIVINE WARNING BY THE PROPHET FOR THE NATIONS"

I am hereby calling on all true citizens that stand for a National Free
Government, and the enforcement of the constitution to help me in .my great
mis-sionarv work because I need all support from all true American citizens of
the United States of America. Help me to save my people who have fallen from
the constitutional laws of the government. I am depending on your support to
get them back to the  constitutional fold again that they will learn to love instead
of hate, and will live according to Love, Truth, Peace, Freedom, and Justice,
supporting our free national constitution of the United States of America.

I love my people and I desire their unity and mind back to their own free
National and Divine standard because day by day they have been violating the
national and constitutional laws of their government by claiming names and
principles that are unconstitutional. It Italians. Greeks. English. Chinese.
Japanese, Turks, and Arabians are forced to proclaim their free national name
and religion before the constitutional government of the United States
of America, it is no more than right that the law should be enforced upon
all other American citizens alike. In all other government when man is born and
raised there and asked for his national descent name and if he fails to give it. he
is misused, imprisoned, or exiled. Any group of people that fail to answer up to
the constitutional standards of law by name and principles, because to be a
citizen of any government you must claim your national descent name. Because
they place their trust upon issue and name formed by their forefathers."

We, of the Moorish Holy Temple of Science of the World are the Moors that Holy
Prophet Noble Drew Ali spoke of... "There are going to be new Moors that are
going to come in with their eyes wide open, seeing and knowing, that are going
to take you old Moors, seat you in the back, and carry out my law."  

Prophet Noble Drew Ali Declared "Nationality Is Free, Not Only Here But All Over
The World"... "If You  Don't Do Anything Else...Declare Your Nationality!"
 
Therefore, We offer civic and religious instructions on nationality, birthright and
divine creed etc...Prophet Noble Drew Ali taught "all members must proclaim
their nationality and their Divine Creed that they may know that they are a part
and a parcel (The original Divine Constitution of the Moorish Holy Temple
of Science” states the legal term: “Part and  Parcel” The altered “Divine
Constitution of the Moorish Science Temple of  America” reads: “Part
and Partial”) of this said government, and know that they are not
Negroes,Colored Folks, Black People or Ethiopians, because these names were
given to slaves by slave holders in 1779 and lasted until 1865 during the time of
slavery, but this is a new era of time now,and all men now must proclaim their
free national name to be recognized by the government in which they live and
the nations of the Earth. The Moorish Americans are the descendants of the
ancient Moabites whom inhabited the Northern Western and South Western
shores of Africa." For further information about Temple membership (Adept

MHTS Public Record Affidavits / Notices - $100.00 We make

PUBLIC DECLARATION of our Moorish / Moroccan  Nationality and Birthrights. In
other words, the forms are NOT just kept in the Moorish Holy Temple of Science
of the World filing system. The appropiate affidavits and / or notices recorded at
the Register of Deeds or Civil Filing Section of the Clerk of Superior Court and / or
placed in the MOORISH GUIDE POST etc... and if needs to be notices are sent to
the 'color' authorities. It is part of the lawful Moorish Nationalization Bureau
(not Naturalization, because you are a Natural Person or Being = Indigenous,
based on Natural Law and Universal Principles).

MHTS Nationality Card - $35.00 "Prophet Noble Drew Ali said "Your Nationality

Card is going to change on you in your pocket." The Nationality Card is made of
hard stock plastic with lamination and with security features. Your weight,
height, hair color, eye color, location (address), and date of birth.
Nationality Defined; And Its Legal Status Implications Nationality is that
quality which arises from the fact of a person's belonging to a nation or
state. Nationality determines the political status of the individual, especially with
reference to allegiance; while domicile determines one's civil status. Nationality
arises
either by birth or by naturalization. Prophet Noble Drew Ali introduced
`Nationalization' (NOT 'Naturalization' for you are already a "Natural Person"
[Indigenous]) with "Natutal Rights" which are those inherent rights that cannot
be granted or given as privileges from a government) to the Moors of North
America and instructed (the Moors) to go by, and obey, the laws of the
federal, state, and county governments. This statement must be qualified by
those who know law – due to the fact that many, among the masses, are
lacking important details of civil - liberties knowledge and of their
inalienable birthrights. During that time period within the Moorish Movement
(1920s) when the Prophet made that statement, the individual states of the
United States of America, were Sovereign. Local and state Governments, by
the Constitution law, and operated according to the states' constitutions.
No state constitution was at variance to the National Constitution. The state and
the federal, both, were to function (with written, delegated power limitations)
according to the National Constitution for the United States Republic. See Article
VI of the Constitution. And this is the `Supreme Law of the Land'. Counter to the
Supreme Law of the Land, the form of  governance for the United States Republic
was, `under color of law', changed. This came about, progressively, after some
deviant political acts took place. One of the deviant and negating political acts
has come to being historically called, the `New Deal'. These acts took place under
the administration of the Franklin D. Roosevelt in the year 1933. This date (1933)
calculates three (3) years and eight (8) months after the Prophet Noble Drew Ali
veiled his form.

MHTS Tax-Exempt Card - $50.00 Prophet Noble Drew Ali warned us that “We Are
Going To Be Taxed To Death!” The Moorish Holy Temple of Science of the World
Tax-Exempt card gives a (natural) person the ability to be tax-exempted from
corporations, such as, Wal-Mart, Lowes, Home Depot and etc...Today, the
average hard working American has become so accustomed to paying
“Taxes” until they coined the phrase “The only things certain in life is death
and taxes.” Following list of today’s Local, State and Federal Taxes … remember,
none of these taxes existed 100 years ago: Accounts Receivable Tax, Building
Permit Tax, CDL License Tax, Cigarette Tax, Corporate Income Tax, Federal
Income Tax, Federal Unemployment Tax, Fishing License Tax, Food License Tax,
Fuel Permit Tax, Gasoline Tax (42 cents per gallon), Hunting,
icense Tax, Inheritance Tax, Inventory Tax, Liquor Tax, Marriage
License Tax, Medicare Tax, Property Tax, Real Estate Tax, Service
Charge Taxes, Social Security Tax, Road Usage Taxes, Sales Tax, Recreational
Vehicle Tax, School Tax, State Income Tax, Telephone Federal
Excise Tax, Telephone State and Local Tax, Telephone Usage
Charge Tax, Utility Taxes, Vehicle License Registration, Tax Vehicle
Sales Tax, Well Permit Tax, Workers Compensation Tax, and etc... (Unofficially)
since 1871 THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA (USA) HAS BEEN CORPORATION but
by 1933 it became official (New Deal). So, under "color of law" taxes are the
European corporate (Business) investment designed for her Western European
Settlers to pay homage to the said Crown. According to the Constitution for the
united States of America Article 1, Section 2, states, Representatives and direct
Taxes shall be apportioned among the several States which may be included
within this Union, according to their respective Numbers, which shall be
determined by adding to the whole Number of free Persons, including those
bound to Service for a Term of Years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three
fifths of all other Persons.

The 3/5 Compromise was reached, stating so-called negroes were counted as 3/5
of a person when
taking census to determine representation in the 18-19th Century alledgely, until
the 13, 14, and 15th amendments extended suffrage, granting so-called negroes
full citizenship (although discrimination in other forms occurred) and now every
30 years we change our names...in the early 1900's we were called negroes, by
the 1930's we were called coloreds by the 1960's we were called blacks and by
the 1990's we were called african-americans...all "color of law"
labels. The dreaded Dred Scott Supreme Court Decision sustained the
original "3/5 Clause" as a perpetual fact of law. This is why the 14th Amendment
is an
Ex post facto Law to the 13th; a hoax and a sham that, under color of
law, suddenly transforms negro said slaves into U.S. citizens. This violation of
suppressing their nationality and divine creed is only equaled by the process of
“denationalization” in the 14th and 15th Amendment. These two ex post facto
Amendments were keeping the Moorish buried in a shallow grave of the United
States with such an iron hand until the Holy Prophet instructed the Moors to go
through them to regain their national and religious status. He said “So, there
isn’t but one supreme issue for my people to use to redeem that which was
lost, and that is to prove there is no need for the application of the 14th and
15th Amendments for the salvation of our people and citizens.” The violations of
ACT-5 via various MSTAs Officials work hand in hand with the oppressive
denationalization activities of the 14th and 15th Amendments. Denationalization
ranks high on the list of international crimes; with ‘Genocide’, and ‘Treason’.
Preventing the Moorish from proclaiming themselves as a Nation of People, by
any means, is also to overthrow their Divine Constitutional Right to autonomy.
Every Human Being has an unalienable and divine right to have a nationality.
Prophet Noble Drew Ali said "You are what your ancient forefathers and
foremothers were...Cushite (Moabite / Moorish)!"
