Video Description (from Youtube)
In this episode, I sit down with Abdul Hamid Edge, a former Christian who accepted Islam after deep discussions with Muslims that challenged his beliefs. His journey took him from the church to the
masjid, and eventually to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, where he studied Islamic knowledge and completed his Master’s thesis on the Nation of Islam (NOI).
We dive deep into the origins of the Nation of Islam, Fahd Muhammad, Elijah Muhammad, Malcolm X, and how government influence and ideology shaped the movement. Abdul Hamid clarifies major misconceptions about the NOI and what separates it from true Islam.

Dark skin is a naturally occurring human skin color that is rich in eumelanin pigments and having a dark color. People with relatively dark skin are referred to as brown, and those with very dark skin are often referred to as black, although this usage can be ambiguous in some countries where it is
also used to specifically refer to different ethnic groups or populations. The evolution of dark skin is believed to have begun around 1.2 million years ago in light-skinned early hominid species after they moved from the equatorial rainforest to the sunny savannas. In the heat of the savannas, better cooling mechanisms were required, which were achieved through the loss of body hair and development of more efficient perspiration.

Pre-Islam refers to the period in history before the emergence and widespread adoption of Islam. It specifically denotes the time before the Prophet Muhammad's revelations and the establishment of Islamic faith, culture, and civilization.
Early Islam or the history of Islam is believed, by most historians to have originated with Muhammad's mission in Mecca and Medina at the start of the 7th century CE. Although Muslims regard this time as a return to the original faith passed down by the Abrahamic prophets, such as Adam, Noah
Abraham, Moses, David, Solomon, and Jesus, with the submission (Islam) to the will of God. According to the traditional account, the Islamic prophet Muhammad began receiving what Muslims consider to be divine revelations in 610 CE, calling for submission to the one God, preparation for the imminent Last Judgement, and charity for the poor and needy.
