Khadijah Farrakhan: A Legacy of Faith and Family

Khadijah Farrakhan, the beloved First Lady of the Nation of Islam and wife of Minister Louis Farrakhan for 72 years, has passed away at 90, marking the end of an era. A devoted wife, mother of nine, and pillar of the Nation of Islam since her 1955 conversion, she stood by her husband through decades of leadership and personal loss, including the deaths of two sons. Her voice echoed across movements—from the 1997 Million Woman March to Hip-Hop culture—celebrating Black womanhood and family unity. More than a matriarch, she was a quiet force of faith, resilience, and enduring influence whose legacy continues to shape the spiritual and cultural landscape.
