It is with great honor that the Study Al-Islam "Life Topics" Series will reflect on the Honorable Elijah Muhammad's leadership and legacy from 1931-1975. Too many know too little or are greatly misinformed about the Hon. Elijah Muhammad's many contributions.

​Negotiating Race, Class, and Gender

Saturday, July 1, 2017 from ​11:30a-12:30p

Black American Muslim women have been leading voices on the struggle for social justice in America. Why then is there constant erasure of their experiences?

Session 6E in Room 26

​Speakers: Jamillah Karim, Su’ad Abdul Khabeer, Laila Muhammad
Host: Hind Makki

Imam W. Deen Mohammed:
​Life, Thought and Influence 

Saturday, July 1, 2017 from ​5-6p

IWDM (1933-2008) is rarely discussed in the academic community, but the voice of this African American, related to such things as politics, economics, race and religion, is important for our environment and times. As an American born Muslim, he falls in the same category as such a figure as the late Muhammad Alexander Russel Webb. Like Webb, a European American, IWDM was committed to the principle of Tauhid, which manifested in his spirituality and the individuals that studied his teachings. Session 9B in  Room 10–11

​Speakers: Abdul Rahim Muhammad, Laila Muhammad
​
Discussant: Mikal Naeem Nash

Cultural Ingenuity (Part 5):
Call Me Bilalian!: Race, Religion, and Struggles for Social Justice 

Sunday, July 2, 2017 from 5-6p

Black Americans were searching for a more representative name to call themselves in the late 20th century. Imam W.D. Mohammed chose a name that shifted away from the focus of color to spiritual ascendency and that didn’t erase their struggles for social justice. His Qur’an-based call to humanity, on behalf of his community, reveals universal lessons we can still bene t from in today’s climate of increased racial tension. Session 16B in  Room 10–11

​Speakers: Precious Rasheed Muhammad, Laila Muhammad
​
Moderator: Hind Makki
