Black Spirituality Religion : Queen of Sheba Initiation

[Omowale Jabali]

Those pyramids were made by my people, the Igbo of Eastern Nigeria. They are shrines

I know. But notice I asked a question in this regards to whether the people in question were involved in the ivory trade at the time these structures were erected. If so, then what was the extent of their trade and did it extend into the "land of Sheba" or what were known as the Southern Kingdoms?

Yesterday, after posting concerning the historical migration eastwards from KANO, I did some researh on pyramid structures in West Africa, Nigeria in particular, where there are what have been described as natural pyramidal structures. This brings into question some other factors. IS there evidence of man/woman-made pyramidal structures in the area of Nigeria or other ancient empires that were involved in the ivory trade?

Yes, I'm familiar with the Igbo pyramids.....There has been much discussion on their similarity to the Step Pyramid in Egypt.

.....as well as theories that Egypt was populated by West Africans.


Are the Igbo pyramids still un-dated?

I am talking about the Quran as a written text which was translated into Arabic from Coptic and Geez.

Brother, that is absolutely untrue. Quran Was Revealed ORALLY to an illiterate man. Therefore, it has always been oral in its most authenic form. The fact that it has knowledge and information also found elsewhere is not evidence that it came from elsewhere.

For instance, at the time of Revelation peope thought the world was flat. But, Quran shows it being round. Now, science has discovered that the world is indeed round. This does not mean that Quran copied this information from science. In fact, it is the other way around because Quran came before the discovery of this scientific fact by mankind.

That being said, Quran came before mankind itself. As the Verbatim Word of GOD, it existed before the universe existed. Everything comes from GOD's Word. If GOD Says of a thing "Be", then it is. For instance, Mary Mother of Jesus was a virgin. But, GOD Said "Be pregnant" and she was pregnant. It is that simply.

The Quranic account of Bilqis was REDACTED from earlier sacred texts which date back at least to the 3rd century before the reign of the Ethiopian King Ezana.

No. Show proof. As for me, I have absolutely no idea what you mean by "Bilqis". I keep asking for clarification. But, you have offered none. f you tell me what you are talking aout maybe I can help to figure out what it means. We are both African. So, do not speak Greek to me.

A few things for sure.

Kush extended its domination into the Himyarite region about 3rd century BC. When Kush declined this influence became centered in Axum, which maintained this domination over Saba (ie "Sheba). I'm talking about 1,000 years before the brith of the Prophet (PBUH).

The "Queen of the South" or "Makeda" was a title given to the Women who reigned over Axum (i.e. "Ethiopia") and later, when the Falashas were dominant in "Ethiopia" these Queen-Mothers were known as the "Judits" or Yudiths.

"Makeda", therefore was a reference to successive DYNASTYS of Queen Mothers who rule in the region which extended across the entire "Arabian" peninsula.

They were also known as the Kandakes.

I see no reason to question the gist of what is said here. But, I am still missing the linkage between the Queen of Sheba and Prohet Muhammad (Salal Alayhi wa Salam). As far as I know, she is not mentioned in Quran. But, I will double check. And, as soon as you tell us what that "Bilqis" is, I will research it as well. At least let us know wat language it is.

Do not resort to tricknology with me. LOOOOOL. It won't work.
