Yakub (Jacob): The Father Of Mankind

Yes this is a blow by blow type of "review" as I am still reading this book. And I have to say this entire premise is just completely DISTURBING to my sensibilities.I was reading it on the train home last night & the entire ride I had this scowl on my face that I could not remove!I am wondering what level of cognitive dissonance must the one(s) who embrace & tell this story have to put on or embody to....just do the mental somersaults required to NOT see how this story completely effectively indicts the so called "Black" race at large?This story changes the entire genre we know as racism & turns it on its heels.This story takes the age old legendary victim-hood OFF of the so called Black man & places it SQUARELY on the TRUE victim ....the TRUE INNOCENT we call the "White man"I don't know if those of the NOI-ISLAMIC faith realize this FULLY because I see it is clear as the hand I stretch out before me to look/read in shock at this BOOK!It is said that the angels have no free will & that is why MAN is more special...Well if we "Black" MEN of FREE WILL ....CHOSE to "CREATE" a being chock full of ALL the INGREDIENTS WE COULD FIND to ENSURE his "EVIL" inclinations ??????THEN WE have EFFECTIVELY made a being who has essentially NO FREE WILL to CHOOSE GOOD & if ever he should ONE DAY in his life do JUST ONE MEASLY GOOD THING or DEED ????GUESS WHAT????THAT one GOOD DEED has the WEIGHT of ANY LIFETIME OF GOOD DEEDS any so called "BLACK" man can muster up - FACTS!!!!!I mean does ANYONE understand what I am saying here?We have a "creature" WE "created" do BE the EMBODIMENT of ALL that is "evil" ON PURPOSE!!!THAT alone in a TRULY just world would be ENOUGH to throw the LIST of CHARGES AGAINST US ..AT US!!!GUILTY, GUILTY, GUILTY & GUILTY to the four corners of the Earth!ANYTHING the so called "White" man HAS done or WILL EVER DO?The TRUE responsibility for it ALL falls SQUARELY on the "BLACK" man's SHOULDERS!!!And someone REALLY needs to explain to me how this can NOT be the case!I have at least THREE placement in the sign of LIBRA!!!!I am damn near entirely & KEENLY in tune WITH & AWARE of the SCALES of Ma'at....It is like BREATHING for me & OTHERS who have similar multiple LIBRA placements & alignments WE DO NOT PLAY with ideas of JUSTICE!Yet I am reading THIS book & the writer somehow insists on seeing this YAKUB as somehow a SEPARATE ENTITY from the so called "Black" race???SO we are referred to basically as GOD in this literature BUT YAKUB is just ......."dat devil over there" ???????SO the WHITE RACE is ONE ENTITY as the dictionary definition & embodiment of EVIL ...yeah?But when it comes to YAKUB oh he ALL BY HIMSELF set apart an entity unto himself SEPARATE from ALL OTHER so called "Black" people ?????HOW lucky we are to be able as "Gods" to PICK & CHOOSE those of us who are ...NOT those of us !!!AS we LUMP everyone ELSE TOGETHER in our EFFORT to ...what is it ? single out evil ????THIS IS MADNESS it is ONE THING that there was a YAKUB ...it is ANOTHER THING to somehow NOT SEE that the ONLY EVIL there was & IS ..Is HIS & OURS and NOT the so called "White" man's!!!!It [evil] was INFUSED into HIM NOT BY HIS OWN WILL - DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND THIS rather SIMPLE CONCEPT ????It was PUT IN HIM - ON PURPOSE NO LESS!!!!It is like the CHILD raised by UNFIT PARENTS...YES the child will be a HOT MESS and WHAT WILL MOST people UNDERSTAND once they LEARN who the PARENTS WERE????????THAT the child had NEXT TO ZERO CHANCE IN LIFE to BE or DO much better BUT AGAIN IF THAT CHILD by SOME MIRACLE DOES MANAGE to do better ?THAT GOOD shall OUTWEIGH the LIFETIME of GOOD that a person WHO HAD IT IN THEMSELVES ALREADY to DO GOOD!IN fact ANY GOOD that the GOODLY person does MAY be CHALLENGED in terms of AUTHENTICITY?WAS it CHOICE or was it INSTINCT ???OH we just F*d ourselves up with THIS one chirren this is NOT looking good the more I look at it!For those of you who stand where I stand today it is a sad place to be but if you are asking HOW do we begin to FIX THIS?One thing I know is we MUST embrace TRUTH!And if the TRUTH is we are guilty than we have to begin to OWN that truth!When I think of our community I think of how religified we are yet I have SEEN with my own eyes how religion can make SUCH a LIAR & HYPOCRITE of SO many of us...it's time to stop playing church.."Black" people have this disdain that they/we simply cannot afford...It's time to let that GO!We have archaic notions about everything from God to SEX but this YAKUB story tells us WE INVENTED everything we DISDAIN!Oh we may have "succeeded" in transferring everything we are phobic about to another race of humans ..But that is like spreading a disease YOU HAD then scorning the ones you GAVE IT TO..HOW THAT LOOK family?It's not the look!But we STILL refuse to embrace ALL that we ARE!I can tell you this there is NO SALVATION & NO peace on Earth ...until WE DO embrace ALL that "stuff" we running from!I gave this book three stars not because I LIKE what I am reading but because I am convinced it is conveying a TRUTH!Three stars because although the TRUTH is staring us in the face we are STILL interpreting it in a way that shows me we are NOT embracing & or owning our stuff...How so?Well it is rather simple YAKUB is portrayed as a HIM & not as much as US..YAKUB is YOU brother YAKUB is ME!And it's time...in fact it is way overdue!And it has nothing to do with joining ANY religion!To so called "White" people in my heart of deepest hearts I ALWAYS new it was NOT you!In my own way I have ALWAYS gravitated toward you & I never knew WHY!I thought something was WRONG with me!I ask YOUR forgiveness as I search to forgive what MY people have done!

There is no scientific evidence for such affirmation. Thus, simply because the book is subsequently about defending and claiming justice, equality and equity for black people in terms of expressing their real value i give it a good raise. And the words of Elijah Muhammad are so clear, so simple, so soluble, the book is so interesting to read and to discover so much other knowledge and informations about the origin and the thrive of the black race throughout time.Good work though!

I am eternally grateful for having me led to to this book. First off, Malcolm X is one of my greatest heroes. Perhaps, it was the magnetic attraction or my intense journey for higher knowledge. I shall not focus on the “what” because “what” this book has done for me is to explain a great mystery to me. I was seeking understanding of why the white man is the way he is. As if he can’t help it. This led me to a quest without bounds for knowledge and understanding. It is only through love and knowledge that yields understanding. I can now say that I understand. Fully.Here’s one thing that I shall say. I have read over 100,000 pages of books this year alone. Less than 1,000 of those pages had any real truth. What I mean by real truth is complete and full truth. Not bits and pieces and puzzles. In 107 pages, this book has spoken more truth than 100,000 pages. Very simple and easy to read. Easy to understand and follow. Most importantly, it was written with love. For it takes love to be able to discuss frozen truths and present the material in a professional manner. Void of negative emotions. Void of opinions. Void of drama. Just plain facts. No disrespect from the Bible, which had 783, 137 words. This book gives it to you plain and clear. That’s when you know you have truth. It doesn’t need flavors or colorful displays of expression. It doesn’t need to be hidden behind riddles and made sweet with poetry. For those truth seekers, you know you have truth when it’s EASY to follow, when the words can be spoken very simple, when it makes sense( the 5 senses and more), and when it RESONATES with you. This should be NATURAL. YOU should not have to question this feeling or the information that you’re presented with. You should put the book down with a higher level of understanding about something you already felt. The feeling had to be there in order for the information to be received. Otherwise, what thirst are you quenching by drinking holy water? So, major lesson here is that caution what you read and what’s presented to you. The manner of presentation will reveal the reality of what is truth and what is fantasy. Lastly, we stand at a moment where one needs to have love, wisdom, and understanding. This is the only way that we can have the necessary tools to use the resources we already have to usher in a moment of any real progress. Real progress is based upon truth. As we have seen what the history of lies can produce. A seed can only produce fruits after its own kind. So, for us to have any meaningful progress, it must be based upon Truth, Wisdom, and Love. This is why this book is a MUST READ!I am grateful for this moment in time and space. I would encourage ALL to buy, read, and understand. Love.

Powerful knowledge is shared in these chapters. After reading it , I began to think about the whole system of lies Society is built on.

Coincides with another creation story in the indigenous peoples of the North American Continent--to some degree

Arrived in very good condition. The topic seems very interesting. I can't wait to start reading.

An easy to read book that is truly educating and enlightening. I highly recommend. A must read if you are a truth seeker.

Not bad touch of pseudo

The book delivers several points worth considering in regards of popular knowledge of history and religion. Some points are as challenging to accept as it is with other popular/traditional concepts/beliefs. A notable aspect to walk away with from the book is; to independently think for self. With all the books one reads to gain knowledge...it’s always based on someone’s perspective, experience and agenda. Whether helpful or hinderance, ultimately the decision is up to the reader to believe/inquire more or disbelieve/ignore.

Nothing but truth, deserves nothing less than 5 stars! Must read for people of all colours, find out the true history of the world from the Messenger of God (Allah) Himself...

Very Very Weird & Not based in any kind of Reality... akin to Trump Fake News

L'auteur du livre, fut le mentor de Malcolm X (avant de le faire assassiner...) ce livre est une curiosité qui développe une théorie qu'il serait trop long d'expliquer ici.... A lire (en anglais) pour se faire une idée du personnage .......Livraison ok ras
