“We also advise them to endeavor to speak the Arabic language. The Arabic language is the language of our Prophet Muhammad (sallallaahu ’alayhi wa sallam) and it is the language of the Qur‘aan. We advise them to exert themselves and strive to acquire beneficial knowledge and to learn the Arabic language.
Similarly, we advise them to persevere with their children and to focus on educating them.
[Beware of] the false propaganda that is present in America, and other than America, like that which is designed to sow [the seeds of] dissention between whites and blacks. This is propaganda from the period of pre-Islamic ignorance. You are a Muslim and your brother is a Muslim, regardless of whether he is white or black. Yes.
Our Prophet Muhammad (sallallaahu ’alayhi wa sallam) said,
“A Muslim is the brother of a Muslim. He does not oppress him nor humiliate him nor look down upon him. Piety is here, [and he pointed towards his chest]. It is a serious evil for a Muslim that he should look down upon his Muslim brother. Everything of the Muslim is inviolable for his brother: his blood, his wealth and his honor.” [2]

If they are able to travel to the scholars, [then they should do so] because strangeness assists in the attainment of knowledge. I ask Allaah that he preserves us and them and that He protects us and them from every evil and harm. I ask Allah the Glorified and Exalted to give us and them understanding in the religion. And all praise is due to Allaah, the Lord of all of the creation.” End of Imam Muqbil’s words.
