National Review published this a few days ago, it might be what you saw. A Junior al Qaeda . . . . . . Right here at home: Meet al Fuqra.

They indicate It is not aligned with a more prominent and homegrown black Muslim group, the Nation of Islam, and in fact it has serious theological differences with Louis Farrakhan's flock. Of course, I have serious theological differences with Al Fuqra, and they didn't mention me.

Thanks, SJackson. What I had read - somewhere - was that Farrakhan had been "recruited" or "converted," depending on your point of view, to al Fuqra.

Black Muslims claim their founder to have been a prophet, and in fact, the final prophet; other Muslims, however, regard this as heresy, because the final and only prophet (of their blood-curdling and hideous religion) was "Muhammed," presumably, Muhammed #1.

Al-Fuqra has had considerable success in recruiting Black Muslims, and in fact, the majority of US members of the group are black Americans, and in many cases, are former Black Muslims.
