We Must Teach Our Own

Send us Fan MailIn this enlightening and soul-stirring episode, we dive into one of the most critical mandates given to us by the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad: “We Must Teach Our Own.” This is more than just a slogan — it is a divine instruction for the survival and rise of a people once considered lost, forgotten, and mentally dead. Join us as we explore the historical roots, scriptural truth, and modern relevance of this teaching. Learn why the Messenger of Allah — raised from among the dead in the wilderness of North America — refused to allow our children to be taught anything less than the truth of God, self, and righteousness. We trace how this principle led to arrests in the 1930s, the formation of independent Black institutions, and how this very doctrine laid the foundation of the Nation of Islam. Now in 2025, with more resources and opportunities than ever, the time has come for us to walk in that same path with greater resolve. This episode is a call to re-commit — to teaching, to building, and to resurrecting our people through truth.  Call to Action: 📣 Do not just listen — join the mission. If today’s message inspired you, then step forward: 📚 Support or volunteer for our upcoming Saturday School initiative.💬 Join the conversation in our online forum.❓ Ask questions, leave comments, or offer your skills.📧 Email us at: [email protected] 🕌 Help us build the temple of truth — brick by brick, mind by mind.
