Synopsis
By Heshaam Jaaber's account, Muslim clergy were not exactly lining up to officiate at Malcolm X's funeral in February 1965. Mosque leaders in the metropolitan area reportedly were warned, anonymously, not to perform rites for the onetime Nation of Islam spokesman. Into the void stepped Jaaber, then a 34-year-old Elizabeth man of Sudanese descent who was national imam for an Arab Muslim group, the Addeynu Allahu Universal Arabic Association Inc. A year earlier, Jaaber had helped persuade Malcolm X to leave the Nation of Islam for traditional Sunni Islam, and now he believed it a sacred Islamic duty to help bury another Muslim, regardless of the threats, he wrote in his 1992 book, "I Buried Malcolm." Jaaber would become a heroic figure in local Muslim communities, also officiating at the 1997 funeral for Malcolm X's widow, Betty Shabazz.
