Blessed be He in whose hand is -the kingdom & who is Almighty; who created death & life that he might -make you the best of his works; for he is exalted; he is the forgiver -(of sins,) who created seven heavens one above the other. Do you discern -anything trifling in creation. Bring back your thoughts. Do you see -anything worthless. Recall your vision in earnest. Turn your eye inward -for it is diseased. God has adorned the heavens & the world with lamps, -& has made us missiles for the devils, & given us for them a grievous -punishment, & to those who have disbelieved their Lord, the punishment -of hell & pains of body. Whoever associates with them shall hear a -boiling caldron, & what is cast therein may fitly represent those who -suffer under the anger of God.—Ask them if a prophet (director) has not -been sent unto them. They say, “yes; a prophet has come to us, but we -have lied to him.” We said, “God has not sent us down any thing, & you -are in grievous error.” They say, “If we had listened & been wise we -should not now have been suffering the punishment of the Omniscient.” So -they confess they have sinned in destroying the followers of the -Omniscient. Those who fear their Lord & profess his name, they receive -pardon & great honor. Guard your words, (ye wicked), make it known that -God is all-wise in all his manifestations. Do you not know from the -creation that God is full of skill? that He has made for you the way of -error, & you have walked therein, & have chosen to live upon what your -god, Nasûr has furnished you. Believe on Him who dwells in heaven, who -has fitted the earth to be your support & it shall give you food. -Believe on Him who dwells in Heaven, who has sent you a prophet, & you -shall understand what a teacher (He has sent you.) Those that were -before them deceived them (in regard to their prophet.) And how came -they to reject him? Did they not [↑see] in the heavens above them, how -the fowls of the air receive with pleasure that which is sent them? God -looks after all. Believe ye: it is He who supplies your wants, that you -may take his gifts & enjoy them, & take great pleasure in them. And now -will you go on in error, or walk in the path of righteousness. Say to -them; “He who regards you with care, & who has made for you the heavens -& the earth: & gives you prosperity, Him you think little of. This is He -that planted you in the earth, & to whom you are soon to be gathered.” -But they say, “If you are men of truth, tell us when shall this promise -be fulfilled?” Say to them; “Does not God know? & am not I an evident -Prophet?” When those who disbelieve shall see the things draw near -before their faces, it shall then be told them, “these are the things -about which you made inquiry.” Have you seen that God has destroyed me -or those with me? or rather that He has shewn us mercy? And who will -defend the unbeliever from a miserable punishment? Say; “Knowledge is -from God.” Say; “Have you not seen that your water has become impure? -Who will bring you fresh water from the fountain?” - - -[Illustration] - - -O Sheikh Hunter I cannot write my life because I have forgotten much of -my own language, as well as [↑of] the Arabic.

I sought knowledge under the instruction of -[↑a] Sheikh called Mohammed Seid, my own brother, & Sheikh Soleiman -Kembeh, & Sheikh Gabriel Abdal. I continued my studies twenty five -years, & then returned to my home where I remained six years. Then there -came to our place a large army, who killed many men, & took me, & -brought me to the great sea, & sold me into the hands of the Christians -[↑who bound me] & sent [↑me] on board a great ship & [↑we] sailed upon -the great sea a month & a half, when we came to a place called -Charleston in the Christian language. There they sold me to a small, -weak, & wicked man, called Johnson, a complete infidel, who had no fear -of God at all. Now I am a small man; & unable to do hard work so I fled -from [↑the hand of] Johnson & after a month came to a place called -Fayd-il (Fayette-ville?). Here I saw some great houses (churches). On -the new-moon I went into a church to pray. A lad saw me & rode off to -the place of his father & informed him that he had seen a black man in -the church. A man named Handah (Hunter?) & another man with him on -horseback, came attended by a troop of dogs. They took me & made me go -with them twelve miles to a place called Fayd-il(?) where they put me -into a great house from which I could not go out. I continued in the -great house (which, in the Christian language, they called jail) sixteen -days & nights. One Friday the jailor came & opened the door of the house -& I saw a great many men all Christians, some of whom called out to me, -“what is your name? Is it Omar or Seid?” I did not understand their -Christian language. A man called Bob Mumford took me [↑& led me] out of -the jail, & I was very well pleased to go with them to their place. I -staid at Mumford’s four days & nights, & then a man named Jim Owen, son -in law of Mumford, who married his daughter Betsey, asked me if I was -willing to go to a place called Bladen, (B. Co. N.C.). I said, Yes, I -was willing. I went with them & have remained in the place (house?) of -Jim Owen until now. - -Before (after?) I came into the hand of Gen. Owen a man by the name of -Mitchell came to buy me. He asked me if I were willing to go to -Charleston City. I said “no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I not willing to go -to Charleston. I stay in the hand of Jim Owen.” - - * * * * * - -O ye people of N. Carolina, O ye people of S. Carolina, O ye people of -America, all of you; have you among you any two such men as Jim Owen & -John Owen. These men are good men. What food they eat they give to me to -eat. As they clothe themselves they clothe me. They permit me to read -the gospel of God, our Lord, & Saviour, & King; who regulates all our -circumstances, our health & wealth, & who bestows his mercies willingly, -not by constraint. According to my power I open my heart, as to a great -light, to receive the true way, the way of the Lord Jesus the Messiah. - -Before I came to the Christian country, my religion was the religion of -“Mohammed, the Apostle of God—may God have mercy upon him, & give him -peace.” I walked to the mosque before day-break, washed my face & head & -hands & feet. I prayed at noon, prayed in the afternoon, prayed at -sun-set, prayed in the evening. I gave alms every year, gold, silver, -seeds, [_illegible word_], cattle, sheep, goats, rice, wheat, & barley. -I gave tithes of all the above-named things. I went every year to the -holy war against the infidels. I went on pilgrimage to Mecca, as all did -who were able.——My father had six sons & five daughters, & my mother had -three sons & one daughter. When I left my country I was thirty seven -years old;—I have been in the country of the Christians twenty four -years.——Written A.D. 1831— - -[↑Written in year one thousand eight hundred and one and thirty of Jesus -the messiah] - -O ye people of N.

This is an excellent family. - -Tom Owen & Nell Owen have two sons & a daughter. The first son is called -Jim & the second John. The daughter is named Melissa. - -Seid Jim Owen & his wife Betsey have two sons & five daughters. Their -names are Tom, & John, & Mercy, Miriam, Sophia, Margaret & Eliza.

Three of them died & two are still living. - -O ye Americans,—ye people of N. Carolina—have you, have you, have you, -have you among you a family like this family having so much love to God -as they? - - * * * * * - -Formerly I, Omar, loved to read the book of the Koran the famous. Gen. -Jim Owen & his wife used to read the gospel, & they read it to me very -much,—the gospel of God, our Lord, our Creator, our King, He that orders -all our circumstances, health & wealth, willingly, not constrainedly, -according to his power.—Open thou my heart to the gospel, to the way of -uprightness.—Thanks to the Lord of all worlds, thanks in abundance. He -is plenteous in mercy & abundant in goodness. - -For the law was given by Moses but grace & truth were by Jesus the -Messiah. - -When I was a Mohammedan I prayed thus: “Thanks be to God, Lord of all -worlds, the merciful the gracious Lord of the day of Judgment, thee we -serve, on thee we call for help. Direct us in the right way, the way of -those on whom thou hast had mercy, with whom thou has not been angry & -who walk not in error. Amen.”—But now I pray “Our Father” &c.. in the -words of our Lord Jesus the Messiah. - - * * * * * - -I reside in this our country by reason of great necessity. Wicked men -took me by violence & sold me to the Christians. We sailed a month & a -half on the great sea to the place called Charleston in the Christian -land. I fell into the hand of a small, weak & wicked man, who feared not -God at all, nor did he read (the gospel) at all nor pray. I was afraid -to remain with a man so depraved & who committed so many crimes & I ran -away. After a month our Lord God brought me forward to the hand of a -good man, who fears God, & loves to do good, & whose name is Jim Owen & -whose brother is called Col. John Owen. These are two excellent men.——I -am residing in Bladen county. - -I continue in the hand of Jim Owen who never beats me, nor scolds me. I -neither go hungry nor naked, & I have no hard work to do.
