Extraordinary Value of The Domestic Life of the Messenger-Messiah: A Collection of Essays

This book consists of essays that were written over a 16-year period—each presenting a different perspective in conveying the Extraordinary Value of the Domestic Life of the Messenger-Messiah, the Honorable Louis Farrakhan. All essays contain several common themes that undergird this Wonderful Subject: 1) Allah is ultimately responsible for the Domestic Life of HIS Messengers—we can accept it or let it alone; 2) the enemies of Allah seek to attack the personal (domestic) lives of HIS Messengers in their effort to derail Allah’s Will; 3) the Domestic Life of Allah’s Messenger-Messiah serves purposes that are both comprehensible and incomprehensible, the former depending upon the quality of our hearts; and 4) our witnessing the growth and success of the Messenger-Messiah for nearly 60 years is Allah’s mercy to us, and a means through which we attain salvation, if we believe in Allah and in Him. Allah orchestrates the lives of HIS Messengers, in totality. HE personally arranges and intervenes in Their Domestic Lives, often choosing their spouses and personal companions. Both the Holy Quran and the Bible clearly confirms this. This is the reason for treating the term “Domestic Life” as a noun in these essays. The Honorable Elijah Muhammad said to the Honorable Louis Farrakhan: “Allah has made me to take HIS place among the people; and I am making you to take mine.” These words are extremely rich in the Wisdom of Allah, and represent the fulfillment of prophecy, specifically when Moses told Aaron to take His place among the people (Holy Quran 7:142). We can easily draw from the Honorable Elijah Muhammad’s statement that the Honorable Louis Farrakhan and He ascend to greater Divine Functions to replace the One who previously held that Divine Function. The phrase “I am making you” denotes a process of transition and transformation. The Honorable Louis Farrakhan’s growth into specific aspects of the Messiah is happening while He is among us; therefore, He is traveling from one stage (Messenger) to the other (Messiah)—hence, He is the Messenger-Messiah during this Process of transition. The essays contained in this book express how His Domestic Life is essential to this Process, and the Extraordinary Value it has in establishing the Kingdom of Allah on Earth.
