Mr. Weinberg,

...The holy Quran does not make such a statement as blacks will be in hell and whites in heaven. In fact, the life of Muhammed say the opposite. It is reported in the Hadiths that Muhammed stated that he had a dream that he saw Bilal (former African slave) in hevaen before him. We all know this is symbolic to mean that African Americans (former slaves) will resurrect the true meaning of Islam and bring peace to the world before the Arabs. Also, African Americans who convert to Islam are returning to the excellence of their West African roots. When you study the history of West Africa, the greatest civilizations were those of African Muslims. Also, West Africa is currently majority Muslim.
