This is the book that started it all. "Revealed" by Noble Drew Ali at the beginning of the 20th Century, this book sparked the "Black Muslim" trend. Fard, the Nation of Islam's founder, was a student of Noble Ali and even claimed to be his reincarnation at one time. The 7 in a circle is a symbol the 5%ers still use on their nation flag. If you're curious how this all started, this is the book you've got to read.
The text reads more like a New Age book than a Black Nationalist one which really suprised me. Ali touches on some deep principles in here and if anyone is interested, I would love to hear different people's interpretations of the book given the number of New Agers, 5%ers, Muslims and other people who KTL on this board. We could set it up like the Bible and the Koran discussions Sunny tried to, only because (as far as I know) there are no MST people here, we shouldn't run into the "you are a heresy" problem when people try to interpret it. Let me know, anyone whose interested.
