Having lived under the banner of Imam W.D. Mohammed’s leadership for nearly 35 years, talked with him personally on several occasions, and discussed very important issues with him and Shiekh Hassan Cisse approximately one year before their parting from among us; I have concluded, the single most important issue to be addressed by their followers is economic (Trade and Commerce).
In many ways, Imam Mohammed’s Islamic understanding and social skills are firmly established within the hearts and minds of his followers. I’m not interested in a new frontier of spirituality. Imam Mohammed did all of the work on that. Therefore, I cannot support our 100 Imams’ re-inventing or re-establishing anything given to us by Imam Mohammed.
Do we have the ability to come out of these tough economic times better off than when we went in should be our greatest concern today? The nation’s most powerful economic thinkers joined in position that our economy is turning for the better. Believing that economic times are getting better and that Allah (swt) is in charge of all things, I’m interested in a greater qualify of life for everyone.
The question is what can these national leaders (100 Imams) do to help us? Maybe, they should discuss among themselves ways and means to move our communities and followers of Imam Mohammed into ultimate economic success, Issue Number One.
