This is a Topical Study Memo dated S-l?h3 by the U.S.
Naval Intelligence service, 9th Naval District, subject: ALLAH TEMPLE
OF ISLAM.
The founder of the cult who said his name was W. D. FARD is
said to have come from the "East" and is referred to as Allah by
members of the organization. A "peddler";wh0 "came from the East"
founded the Allah Temple of Islam in Detroit, Michigan sometime be-
tween 1930 and 1932. This individual stated his nan: was W. D. FARD
but he was more commonly known as Mr. WALI FARRAD. Other names used
by him included Professor FORD, Mr. FARRAD MOHABWED r HM.. F.
MOHAMED ALI. FARD first presented his views from house to house
gaining entry by nesns of the attractive wares he displayed.
Next, a group of people was invited to one of the houses
visited by him so that all might hear the story in which there was
so much interest. The "peddler" later assumed the role of prophet.
During the early period of his ministry, he used the Bible as his
textbook. It was the only religious book with which the majority
of his hearers were familiar. With growing prestige over a con-
sistently increasing group, the prophet became bolder in his denun-
ciation cf the Caucasians and began to attack the teachings of the
Biblae .
As the followhng of the prophet grew, a change to temple
services and the development of subsidiary organizations became
necessary. with the crystallization of the cult activities into a
formal movement, FARD placed the entire organization under a Minister
of Islam and a corps qr assistant ministers, all of hom.had been
selected and trained by the prophet. Then suddenly he disappeared
from Detroit on 6-30-3h. r
J
The prophet utilized to the fullest measure the environment
of his followers, most of whom were recent migrants from the rural
South. It was explained that recommended books and addresses were
symbolic and could he understood only through the interpretation
which FARD himself would give at the tqnple services. When, earlyin the 0rganizatijn's development, the Koran was introduced as the
most authoritativ source for the study of the new faith, the prophet
used only the Arabic text which he translated and explained to the be
lievers. Thus, he had sole access to their original Holy Book.
It is generally believed by members of the cult-that FARD
was educated in a college in England in preparation for a diplomatic
career in the service of the Kingdom of Hejaz but that he abandoned
everything to "bring freedom, justice and equality" to his "uncle"
the American negro!, living in the "wilderness of North America,surrounded and;-Obbed completely by 1;}; can m,_nR_ O1-f5_c1,_._]_o80}7

The following information is a summary
of information appearing in various files and was
compiled by the writer from a review of the files
in connection "ith the investigation of R. D. FARD.
The information contained in this memo is relative
to the founding of the organization known as the Nation
of Islam. The Moorish Science Temple of America will
be referred to hereafter as the MSTA.
At Newark, New Jersey, in 1913, an individual
calling himself N BLE DRE% ALI or the Proohet NOBLE
DREW ALI fo nded an organization known as the MSTA.
'The person calling himself NOBLE WR W ALI was a Negro
male, TIMOTHY o;»ar~rw, who was born January R, 1886, in
North Carolina. Little is known of NOBLE SHEW ALI's
history. He was reported to have been employed as an
'expressman" in Newark in 1913, and was supposed to
have been in Cuba, at one time.
There is little indication that NOBLE DREW
ILI was suocesaf l in obtaining a large following at
Newark, or that any large MSTA membership was formed
on a national basis. i
i i
_- In 1925, NOBLE DREW ALI appeared at the
Chicago, Illinois, and_preaehed in empty lots and
on street corners on 0hieago's South I150.
DREW ALI is described as being a semi-literate
person although he possessed an elequent tongue, a
persuasive manner and a native shrewdnese which enabled
him to sway the poor people who listened to him. DRFH
ALI alwaysiappeared wearing a flaing red fez similar tothose wornfby Turks.

NOBLE DREW ALI was persistent §:hispreaching and slowly began to winhis banner. DREW ALI was able to estab ish
Lpermanent headquarters and by 192? was able to
hold a convention where it was decided to expand
proselytising activities to other cities.
The philosophy which seems new ALIpreached was a religion based on rad! and agpoaing
the Christian faith. He preached that peop e commonlyknown in America as Negroes are soghally of Moorish
duent and are asiatice, and ;het he Negroes should not
refer to themselves as black, but as "olive-hued*. The
Negoes in America are descendants of the ancient
Hoabites who inhabited the Northwest and Southwest shores
of Africa, but that they had heen held in slavery
in America from 1779 to 1865. The names used by the
Nerroes were not their real names, but "sieve names"
and the Moorish in Amerioantwua-required to carry a
card bearing his "real" or ssiatio name. The "slave"
names were transformed to real ones by the addition of

person's real name". Theoard had to be signed by
DREW ALI who of course sold the cards to those to whom
he cave their Asiatic names. DREW ALI also began to do
a profitable business in charms and nostrums, among
them were Moorish healing oil, Moorish pririer bath
eonpound and Moorish herbsg According to NOBLE DREW
ALI ALLAH the G eat God of the Universe hadlordainedHOBLE DREh ALI is his gpphlt to redeem his people from
their sinful ways and to proclaim their tree racial
name. DREW ALI wrote'and published his "Koran" s small
pamphlet consisting of a mixture of the Mohammedan Koran
the Christian Bible and excerpts from the life cf Christ
bound together with- DREW ALI's pronouncements and
interpretations,
January 6, DREW ALI's birthday was considereds special gtoation for the Moorish regslie was swo_ .in in all mplee and there was Qtadeg and sbuBn{§EZLn~of sgsirts in s celebration similar to unristnes.

and paid tribute to GARVEY in his Koran and sermons.
It should be noted that MARCUS GARVEY was a Jamaican
Negro who organised a movement in 1918 known aa the
Universal Negro Improvement Association which advocated
a back to Africa movement which reiched iti teak
in membership in 1921, claiming about h,O00,000 Negroes.
After that the movement steadily declined,
By 1929 a leadership quarrel had developed within
the MSTA between DREW ALI and CLAUDE GREEN, a Negro
politician and former partner to the philanthrophist
JULIUS ROSENWALD, GREEN »ae an opportunist who saw in
the MSTA a quick source or revenue. Upon arrival at
his office one day in the sprint-of 1929, DREW ALI found
that CREEK had moved all his furniture outside and -had declared himself Grand Sheik. With this uae£ee1ea3;-
enlisted ea port in Chicago, as well as in temples n
other cities.
On March 15, 1929, GREEN was stabbed to
death. The following day DREW ALI wee arreeted, but
eubeequently released on bond,
On July 20, 1929, DREW ALI was beaten to
death in a bloody right between warring META factions,
near ESTA temple 3603 South Indiana, Chicago. A few
days later another bloody MSTA riot occurred, during the
course of which two Chicago polioementwere killed,
one META member wee killed and numerous member: were

After DREHgALI'a death the HBIA definitely split
into two factions, one headed by a cnentzs runner any and
the other by JOHN GIVEHB EL, V1,, the Prophet NOBLE
DREW ALI re~incarnated. Several ctherl_aepil§lg%tc

The child of FORD, WALLACE DODD FORD, later known as
WALLACE MAX FORD, was in the U. S. Coast Guard during World
War II and was killed at Linhaven Roads, Virginia, on 8/3/#2.
HAZEL has documentary proof of death of child as set out above.
Information re subject's criminal record under Los
Angeles Police Department No. 16#H7 is set out in Los Angeles
letter to Chicago dated 8/26/57. WALLEI FORD was arrested by
the LAPD on ll/l7/18 for assault with a deadly weapon and
Wee releeeed. He was again arrested on l/20/25 for violation
of the woolwine Act California prohibition law!, possession
and sale. On 3/Q/26 he was sentenced to-a one dollar fine or
one day in jail on count l and to a four hundred dollar fine
or 180 days in jail on count 2. On 2/15/26 he was arrested
for the third time by the LAPD for violation of the State
Poison Act - a felony. He was sentenced on 5/28/26 to a
term of from six months to six years and was received at
San Quentin State Penitentiary on 6/12/26. He was released
from San Quentin on 5/2?/29,
HAZEL described FORD as male, white, New Zealander,
exact age unknown, 5'8", 140 pounds, slender build, black
curly hair, black eyes, beautiful even teeth, straight nose,
Caucasian features, no visible scars, extremely swarthy
complexion, had the appearance of a very dark complected
Mexican.
HAZEL advised that FORD had come to Los Angeles from
Oregon at least four or five years before she met him in 1919
and had been operating his cafe at 347 South Flower Street,
Los Angeles, during that period. FORD never told her anything
about his background. He never mentioned his date or place
of birth, education, parents, brothers or sisters. On one
occasion she found an old letter addressed to him under the
name of FRED DODD in Salem Ore on. By reading the letter she
knew without question in her mind that FRED DODD and WALLACE
FORD were identical; however, he always used the name WALLACE
FORD while she knew him in Los Angeles.
HAZEL recalled that a girl, name unknown, told her
in about 1919 oq'l92O that she, the girl, had helped FORD
write letters to his parents in New Zealand because FORD
had very little education and had trouble with his correspon-
dence, According to HAZEL this unknown girl had been a waitress
in FORD's cafe and had lived with FORD before HAZEL came along.
From this and from the birth certificate on the child HAZEL
assumed that FORD came from New Zealand.

HAZEL recalled that in 1919 when she first moved in
with FORD he mentioned that he had been married, possibly in 9-.
Oregon; that there had been a bitter separation and FORD
had been unable to obtain a divorce, and that was one of the
reasons she and FORD were never married. FORD had a boy of
this marriage. HAZEL thinks the boy was born sometime priorto 191M or 1915, possibly in Oregon. ////
In 1926 FORD, while operating his cafe, was
associated with a man who was half Chinese,and the two of
them sold narcotics for which they were arrested and both
sent to prison. The other person was paroled, but FORD told
HAZEL that he would serve out his time and did not want a
parole as he wanted to be a free man when he was released. ,~1
After his release from San Quentin on 5/27/29 FORD
went to Chicago and was in Chicago and Detroit from then until
1932 when FORD visited HAZEL, her present husband and the
child in Los Angeles. FORD was driving a 1929 Model A Ford
coupe with California license plates. FORD had white sheets
over the seats of the car. He left the sheets with HAZEL, I
saying that he would not need them any more as he was oingback to New Zealand. FORD gave no explanation as to wgy as
sed white sheets. On this singular visit FORD advised HAZEL iand her family that he was only eating one meal a day and ;__
that this was his new way of life. HAZEL advised that FORD
was wearing his hair long and full in the back. Previously
he had always had a short conventional haircut.
FORD said that since his release from San Quentin *-"'7.
he had been selling doctors supplies. During this visit in
1932 FORD gave HAZEL a small box containing self-threadingneedles. This box was postmarked H/28/30 from the Marcellene
Chemical Company, 1900 west Broad Street, Richmond, Virginia,
and was addressed to W. D.?FORD, General Delivery, Chicago,
Illinois. HAZEL gave the_box to the interviewing agent and
the same is being retained in the Los Angeles file in instant
case.
HAZEL advised she corresponded with FORD from 1929
to 1932. All of her-letters were addressed to him care of
General Delivery,in either Chicago, Illinois or Detroit, Michigan.
She correspondedfwith FORD on an average of once or twice a
year. She tried to get FORD to send money for the support of'
the child. HAZEL recalls that when FORD did write he said he
had no money to send.

For the information of Baltimore, the following
information concerning the Nation of Islam is being supplied:
According to the speeches and writings of ELIJAH
MUHAMMAD, the National leader of the NOI, "Allah" came to
Detroit, Michigan, from Mecca in l93O,' in the person of
one W. D, FARD, and taught MUHAMMAD for three years concerning
Islam. MUHAMMAD claims that FARD taught Islam in Detroit,
Michigan from 1930 until 1933, at which time he was asked
to leave Detroit by the Detroit Police Department. He
subsequently came to Chicago, Illinois, where he taught
Islam until l93h, at which time he disappeared and nothing
has been heard from him since. MUHAMAD has indicated that
FARD returned to Mecca. In the current philoepphy of the
NOI, W. D. FARD is referred to as the founder of the NQI
and the Savior of the "so-called" Negro.
The following information.was obtained from a
review of Chicago files:
The Moorish Science Temple of America MSTA!
flourished in Chicago in the late l920=s under the leadership
of a Negro calling himself NOBLE DREW ALI. During world
War II the Bureau conducted extensive investigation of
the MSTA because ofithe possibilities of Japanese influence
in that organization.

According t severalyears prev ous y an individual by the n ARD phonetic!

having many members leave the MSTA and affiliate themselves
with a group which he referred to as "Mooselems".
Also the Chicago Office is in possession of a G2
report dated December 30, 1950, at Detroit, Michigan, which
reflects that in 1930 a man calling himself W. D. FARD took
over a group of Negroes which had been organized by another
Negro named NOBLE D. OLLIE. W. D. FARD is reported to be
the organizer of both the NOI and an organization known
as t e " eveiopment of Our Qen."
The Chicago Division is also in possession of an
ONI report dated October l3, l9h2, which lists one'ABDUL
MUHAMMAD, a "first officer" of the NOI in Detroit, as
having been the host of one SATAKATA TAKAHASHI, founder
of the Japanese "Black Dragon Society". Apparently,-
TAKAHASHI and ABDUL MUHAMMAD resided together in Detroit
in the early 1930's. In this connection, the attention
of the Detroit Division is directed to their file 62-YO9
on an individual named NAKA NAKANE, wa., Satakata .
Detroit should further refer to the re ort of SA qf P
ated March 30, l9h0, at Detroit in this case whic
repor reflects that NAKANE was instrumental in the formation
of an organization known as the "Development of Our Own".
Page S8 in this report reflects that on June 29, 1939,
TAKAHASHI was arrested for illegal entry and attempted
bribery of United States Imigration inspector. Upon
interview by a Bureau Agent following his conviction for
bribery, TAKAHASHI stated that in 1930 in Tacoma, Washington,
he became acquainted with a Negro Minister, JOHN WHITE.
Upon going to Qetroit from Tacoma, in the early 1930's,
TAKAHASHI contacted one ABDUL MHAMMAD because MUHAMMAD
had written WHITE requesting that a-Japanese work among

A summary of information appearing in Bufiles
concerning subject and his known aliases is presently
being prepared. You will be furnished with a copy of
this summary upon its completion.
A review of Bufiles reflects that in 1942,
Naka Nakane was 70 years of age, almost blind, and had
been hospitalized during the past three years because
of stomach ulcers. Therefore, the Bureau does not feel
that efforts should be expended at this time to determine
if Nakane is still alive and to interview him for any
possible information he may have concerning the subject.

that God prepared a body", or

is a special prepared man to
do a work or redeeming the
lost sheep the so-called Ne-
groes!. He had to have a body
that would be part oi each side
- black and whitei, halt and
half. Therefore, being born or

able to go among both black
