Ali’s Ex-Wife Speaks Truth To Congress Members About Ban & Christianity vs. Other Religions
Khalilah was also briefly questioned in that Florida airport incident where her son was detained. However, the officers allowed her to go because she proved that she was the ex of Ali, by showing them a photo of herself with Ali. When speaking to Congress, she recalled her fears during the incident as she paced the Fl. airport during Ali Jr.’s detention, with no info as to where the officers had taken him:
“I thought my son has been kidnapped,” Khalilah stated as her voice began to shake with emotion. “I have never felt so uncomfortable in my own country.”
…
She stirred up some discomfort for some (not all) Christians, with her potent statement in which she was urging Congress to see to it that ALL people are treated equally and voicing her disdain for Trump and others unfairly stereotyping Muslims as terrorists:
“I didn’t call them Christians when they put us into slavery,” she stated, in reference to the slave era and slave masters. “These terrorists are simply criminals. Please don’t call them Muslims.”
Christians who are aware of the historical truth did not get offended by Khalilah’s statements at all. But some Christians who may, or may not, be aware of that part of history, didn’t really take too well to her comment…
Slave Era Fact Check:
Khalilah’s comment was in reference to the fact that when Africans were captured from Africa during the slave era, their religion was not Christianity. In fact, they’d never even heard of it until being brought to America. Slave masters were known for proudly labeling themselves as Christians. In turn, the masters forced their slaves to learn Christianity and the teachings of the Bible, in an effort to get them to cooperate with their enslavement for the rest of their lives.
It’s been well documented that slave masters forced African slaves to accept the viewpoint that if they suffered here (in America) in life, by being their slaves, that their rewards would be far more greater in death when they go to heaven.
Much like the late Muhammad Ali always did, the point his ex-wife and her son were making to Congress is that there is good, bad, and ugly in all walks, forms, and religions of life, but that no one person should be discriminated against simply based on religion alone, but rather based on their character as a human being.
