-His real name is Akhnukh (Enoch).

-He was nick-named Idrees (“The Scholar”) because he was always engaged in scholarly pursuits.

-He was always reading the books of revelation given to prophet Adam (A.S) and Seth (A.S).

- His mother’s name was Ashuth, while his father’s name was Bard(Jared) son of Mahla’eel, son of Qaynan, son of Anwh (Ena), son of Shith (Seth), son of Adam.

-He was the first to write with the pen (“Al-qalam”), the first man to weave cloth and the first to wear sown cloth.

-He was also the first man to learn star-gazing (Astrology & Astronomy “Q 10:5, Q 17:12 & Q 25:61”), as well as Mathematics (Hisab).

-The first medium used to conduct this research/scholasticism was the sand ‘an abundant material’, and so the knowledge came to be known alternatively as Ramlu, Qalami, Turabi, etc. ‘Q 96:1-5’

1. “Ramlu” – meaning Sand (Variations)

2. “Al-Qalam” – meaning Pen (Dialectics)

3. “Hisab” –meaning Calculations (Mathematics, Astrology / Astronomy)

-These three are branches of the same knowledge, i.e. physical research into so-called “supernatural” phenomena.

-That is the why the medium used by scholars, especially of mysticism is the (pure) sand & (Witness khatims (seals)).

-Sometimes, the names are interchanged as the branches are interwoven and overlap in repeated relations.

-Ramlu (also called Turabi – meaning soil) is sometimes called al-Qalami in the beginning.

-But was later known in many cultures as the Oracle, e. g. the 16 Odus of Ifa, the Yoruba Oracle in West Africa.

-His knowledge and wisdom cannot be faulted based on any later adulterations, for he was one of the Sidqeen (Truthful Prophets) ‘Q19:56 & Q4:96’.

VOTE FOR HONOURABLE (SHEIKH) SULAIMAN ODETAYO: THE PATHFINDER

Salam alaykum, brothers and sisters.

I am Sulaiman Adeyemi Odetayo. My aim is to walk the talk, which I have been encouraging you all to do too. Active participation was the Prophet's way not just in religion but Politics as well. He was the head of state, for the nation of Islam.

Prophet Sulaiman was also another man of God who combined spiritual life with political leadership like his father prophet Daud.

These are amongst the few I hope to emulate.

I need your spiritual, financial, moral and other kinds of support, hoping never to detail from the path, by Allah's leave.

Thank you all.
