Bismillah

No. The NOI is not a "new" fitnah. You can place it concepts along with the wahhabih of Saudia Arabia. For a history and understanding of the NOI you should go to www.newafricaradio.com. While you're there...spend some time and get to know Imam Warith ud deen Mohammed.

Although Wahhabis are indeed deviants (likening Allah

to his creation and declaring haram that which is halal), they are nowhere near as deviant and the Nation of Islam.

* The Nation of Islam believes that Elijah Muhammad was a messenger and was taught by God Himself, who the NOI claim as "Master" Fard Muhammad (W. D. Fard).
* Islam teaches that Muhammad

was the last of the messengers that Allah

has sent to mankind — there would be no more and all Muslims are to follow the teachings of the Quran and accept monotheism

# NOI teaches that "Allah (God) appeared in the Person of Master W. Fard Muhammad, July 1930; the long-awaited Messiah of the Christians and the Mahdi of the Muslims."[5]
# Traditional Sunni and Shi'a Muslim doctrine is that it is heretical and blasphemous to believe that God would manifest Himself in human form. Likening any individual(s) to God is a form of shirk—a major sin in Islam.

# The Nation of Islam ignores Jumuah, as a pillar of practice for Muslims. This was changed briefly in 2002, when W. Deen Mohammed, a Muslim in opposition of black separatism, delivered the Friday sermon at the Los Angeles Convention Center.[32] The practice of Jumuah prayer for the NOI has since stopped in place of a traditional "Christian" Sunday service.
# Islam dedicates Friday as the congregational prayer (salat) that Muslims hold every Friday, just after noon in lieu of dhuhr (noon prayer

* NOI teaches that the Black man is the original man, and from him came all brown, yellow, and white people. By using a special method of birth control law (the Yakub teaching), the Blackman was able to produce the white race.[16] NOI does not believe that whites are worthy to be evangelized, and thus does not accept them into the NOI.
* Traditional Islam teaches that all races are equal, and any person of any race can convert to Islam. Islam recognizes the Biblical and Qur’anic figure, the patriarch Jacob, but this Jacob is viewed by Muslims as a prophet, not the Yakub featured in Nation of Islam theology.
