Reviving the Quran and Sunnah

Africa was Islamic long before black slavery

So these things we need to be aware of and we need to value this history of ours and we need to appreciate the good fortune that has manifested in this history. Good fortune is brought out by the documentary called 'The inheritor of the faith" the good fortune that here is a people who were told that they once were Muslims when they were in their own land and then they were brought to this land, there is a lot of support for that. Africa did not just become a Muslim land when we were brought into slavery, Al Islam had already spread into Africa, and it was very popular in Africa.

Egypt was a strongly Islamic country, Sudan had become a strongly Islamic country, the Niger area was strongly Islamic and many other places, so Africa had already become a very strong population of people who identified themselves as Muslims with the religion of Al Islam. So it is not surprising that many of the slaves were the children of Muslim parents. Now the hope of these people to have their own religion has been answered and now in America, the children of those parents are back with their religion.
