In The Name of Allah, The Beneficent, The Merciful.

[Editor's Note: The following text is excerpted from a message delivered by Minister Louis Farrakhan on July 26, 2009 at Mosque Maryam in Chicago, Illinois entitled "The Crucifixion of Michael Jackson and All Responsible Black Leaders."]

This is a strange subject: The Crucifixion of Michael Jackson. Why would we, as intelligent believing people, put Michael Jackson in the same kind of trauma, dilemma, torture and scourging as the man Jesus? The enemies of Jesus mocked him. When they crucified him, they had at the top of the cross “Jesus, King of the Jews.”

Michael Jackson, the so-called King of Pop, was also crucified. I see Brother Michael much deeper than those who have talked about him.

I want to talk to you today about the method that the enemy of God, and the enemy of the rise of humanity, is using, has used, and plans to use again to destroy leadership that will cause, first of all, Black people to rise; and second of all, humanity to rise.

You may ask “Rise from what?” If the scripture teaches that “Satan deceived the whole world,” are we in the world? Could it be that we, too, have been deceived? Well, what would the greatest deception be? The Greatest Deception would be to deceive humanity about that One that is prophesied to come to end Satan's world, and bring in a Kingdom wherein all human beings can find peace and security and justice. I am talking about The Messiah.

The greatest deception of humanity today would be to put our minds back 2,000 years ago to blind us to the time in which we are living now when the Messiah would absolutely be present in the world.
