I just wanted

to say

to You

-my Muslim sister-

with tears of joy

in my eyes,

keep on being

that American woman

who is most like Maryam.

ALLAH made her a sign.

She was chosen above

the women of the world

for the life-long labor

of doing something for

ALLAH first (showing faith):

the soul of a sister

More than other women,

lead on!

We are truly blessed.

Preface

This book is about our leadership. Our two most mentioned positions of authority in Holy Scripture are gifts to us from THE MAKER: blessings. No person in the world has the ability to give both to us or take both away-belongs to us. We stand out over others in the position of the Mother-like Maryam. We also stand out over others in the position of a mate who possesses the right thing for a man to have, when he places his spiritual nature in our hands to guard the unseen part of his life-like Haggar: the right hand possess. Like the Sun or moon in the sky, no one on earth can handle an uncorrupted woman who knows how to act in either of these positions. Beyond another's capacity to control: handle, you are just like both of these women, being real with ALLAH alone Controls you and Rules you more than any creature: pure.

In America today, we see the most famous women of African decent are not well known because of their child rearing skills as Maryam; nor, are famous for the way in which they guard over the unseen part of the life of mates like Haggar. On the contrary, they are famous for beating men at their GOD given material leadership. Famous women of African decent are well know for being successful at the obtainment of material goods behind their physical labor for their family: a confusing character at best. Is women's leadership inferior?

During American slavery, our sisters had no family village; they had no husbands able to keep families safe. Much separation under white rule, family members lived like dogs, handled by the slave owners to not help each other out of a miserable state: enemies. Under this spiritless social order of control, family members left each other to get away from slavery and many did not return like Harriet Tubman did with the faith to live with her family. She led them with an Islamic family spirit of peace, love and forgiveness. In fact, the latest American Census reported 70% of African American women today head their households.

From the People of the Book, we have led others by faith. African Haggar lead with faith in the unseen part of her mate's life to erect the first house of worship in Bekka/Mecca. Whenever Zacharias came to Maryam's room, she had everything to need, so he prayed for a son. As a woman with faith, I have been blessed to find the path of ALLAH. This is still only a hidden story/legacy. I just wanted to write this book, since we share the same legacy. My prayer is for it to inspire you to keep on leading others to have the right spirit, faith, to stay on ALLAH' S path!

We are leaders due to our spirit character!

Sister, you will not find a table of content in this book like in my other books on our spiritual leadership. First, I did not see any division in this topic with a need to detail in a chapter. Secondly, I am not planning on making this a self-help/ tutorial book either. In fact, I found myself unable to plan for a book about having faith. I am writing it from my heart to express the winning things in my soul that I feel. The word table, pointing to a schedule for you to follow throughout the course of events in this book, hinders my nature as a female to let my own spirituality flow. I follow my female nature as a covering Muslimah who is felt more than seen, since I do not act like a material object for men man's vanity. I don't want to serve them as a result. My spiritual character affords me strength to not speak for a man's sake with a deen for the separate of sexes. I do things for THE MAKER of me: reality!

It is times like at this very moment, when there is no one around who understands my spiritual maturity. Sister! You see, my mate just does not understand my common sense on the right thing for me to do, have faith, during a pressing problem, owning to my spiritual insight to observe the unseen part of life. My children, they are too youthful to take in my mother wit to act right before they can see it. The influence of some famous women of African decent does not help out, when they act like our leadership is so immaterial that what matters is only men's leadership, so they have transgressed to work hard to look attractive.

In previous books, I wrote about the souls' growth to spiritual perfection. This means to have a peaceful state and it means to exist please with our selves from ALLAH being pleased with us: the soul of a sister. We lead the way to THE MAKER because of such character. As a mother, one is blessed with 5 gifts to raise a child's soul from being harmful to self to grow being pleased with self. At the soul's lowest stage, a person without faith is full of ill will (evil). This is problem of most well known black women: hurt by men with the belief of man as god: Jesus. Instead of trusting ALLAH, they, mad, rather show men how to act like men: protect others. How many do you see even develop to the soul second's stage: the self-accusing spirit: repent and stop it?

Next, American Muslim women of African decent in a mating relationship have mostly been the Right Hand Possess of men in history. We historically have been those who mated with the kind of men most to insanely believe their superiority over us, gave them the right to control us, since we had no physical power in the world. The even tried to make us accept a man as god: Jesus. Their physical or material endowment made them so vain to the point to consider us with nothing of value to give them. Consequently, they remain mean, hard hearted, abusive, and full of ill will at the lowest stage for the soul to develop. American slavery proved this in order for the slave owner to deal with black bondwomen who mated with them. This explains the treatment of video girls in front of video cameras today. They help men to thank GOD for their material blessings right in the videos, yet they treated like inferior sex objects.

The immature men still have not been raised right: humble, they have stayed at the soul's first stage: hurting. If they had a mother from the motherland like Maryam (pbuh), they would have acted like Jesus (pbuh) who showed compassion and kindness to a woman, so he was not overbearing to appear miserable, singing the blues. Sister, we have mainly been the women who had to deal with the unseen part of others lives who acted vain, selfish, and unequal. By our example, we have been able to raise them up to a higher stage of the soul: Christ like. Lead the way, as women of our ethnic group- People of the book-do.

Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) revealed the Holy Quran:

This Book no doubt in it for those to carry out their duty

They believe in the unseen and they keep prayer up,

and from what we gave them, they spend from. Plus, they

believe in what was revealed to you and what was made

revealed before you and they are in the Hereafter certain.

They are upon a right direction from THE LORD of them

And these are ones successful.

For sure, those who do not believe are likewise are themselves upon, if you warn them or never warn them, they are not going to believe it. ALLAH sealed up their hearts (feelings do not flow) and on their hearing and on

their eyes to cover up. Plus, they have much grief, miserable, as a punishment. Chapter 2: 2-7

I wrote a black history book also to explain this leadership of the women of our ethnic group for hundreds of years in this society, since few others have recognized and showed appreciation the real success story of Black women with the verses above. As a result, the facts remain that the offspring of black mothers lead others as Social Reformers and Religious Leaders throughout American history. I just wanted to inspire you, keep up the struggle to your success in the way that ALLAH has made for you. Take care of at your spiritual state, since the belief in the unseen part of your life (having faith) is important! Continue not to exist a mad woman by believing men have supernatural control over you: a god, if a convert or you reverted back to the Islamic lifestyle! Stay faithful to THE REAL MASTER over you, so live your life your way!

While the latest American Census reported 50% of African American men are not considered legally married; furthermore, it's an established fact that 50% of American marriages end in divorce. Thus, only around 25% of black men are even viewed as married men. This fits the revelation of ALLAH'S Messenger concerning the position of women as Right Hand Possesses. The fact shows the real truth about this world's life even in Holy Quran, since around 70% of women of African decent live a single lifestyle. This proves the Americanization of our men toward being vain without any need for women. What other ethic groups of women out number us in being single in the Census, none! Regardless, I believe that good brothers support our leadership, marry us, and want their offspring to grow up right. They are not vain men, because they understand that we are a pair. Men preserve the seen or material part of our lives, while women preserve the unseen part of us. It takes a female and a male for human life to grow: humane. They do heed our leadership and want us to promote ourselves instead.

What kind of mating relationships historically for hundred of years have African American good women mostly been in? It certainly has not been and still is not polygamy, a marriage condition to know is detailed only once in he Quran, making it an exception to the rule: reality. From the story of Haggar to comprehend, a spiritually advanced woman who works to please ALLAH only can practice it; this means mature woman.
