You shall read how Master Fard Muhammad (Teacher of Elijah Muhammad) established nine laborers under Himself to govern the Nation of Islam during the early 1930’s.

You will see in this book that we include definitions of certain critical words to help the reader comprehend the concept of terms such as government, civics and ministry to show how it relates to the contents and context of our objective.

So as to get one to comprehend, the definition given for the word “Nation” is: A large aggregate of people united by common descent, history, culture or language inhabiting a particular country or territory. Thus, the Nation of Islam—descendants of America’s Trans-Atlantic slave trade has been established in the western hemisphere as a government.
