About
The Masjid Malcolm Shabazz is a mosque which hosts a Sunni Islam congregation in Harlem, New York City. Formerly Mosque No. 7, it was originally a Nation of Islam mosque under Elijah Muhammad's leadership until after his death in 1975, when his son Wallace D. Muhammad reoriented the organization's philosophy towards Sunni Islam. In 1976, Wallace D. Muhammad renamed the mosque in honor of Malik el-Shabazz (Malcolm X), who had preached in Mosque No. 7 until 1964, before he left the Nation of Islam to become a Sunni Muslim.
