The image presents the five highest supreme principles of Love, Truth, Peace, Freedom, and Justice encircling the green five pointed star, a symbol widely embraced by Moorish American Nationals in the Americas. Within the modern Moorish national framework, these are not decorative ideals but governing laws of nationhood. The star represents unity of mind, body, and spirit aligned under divine law. It signifies balanced governance, moral order, and the conscious restoration of a people who identify themselves as Moorish by nationality and heritage within the Americas.
The modern Moorish American movement is rooted in the teachings of Noble Drew Ali, who established the Moorish National Divine Movement of America in the early twentieth century. He taught that Moorish Americans must proclaim their nationality, uplift fallen humanity, and live according to divine principles. Central to his message was that nationality is essential to self government, self respect, and lawful standing. Without knowledge of one’s national identity, a people remain subject to confusion and misclassification. Thus, Moorish American Nationals emphasize self definition, civic responsibility, and moral discipline as the foundation of their nation.
The five principles displayed in the image function as the ethical constitution of the Moorish American Nation. Love is innerstood as active benevolence toward family, community, and humanity. Truth is the commitment to honesty, knowledge of self, and alignment with divine law. Peace represents mastery over the lower self and the cultivation of harmony in social conduct. Freedom is not mere independence but lawful self determination governed by responsibility. Justice stands as the balancing principle that ensures fairness, equity, and righteous judgment. Together, these five form a complete system of civic virtue.
For modern Moorish American Nationals in the Americas, nationhood is expressed through lawful conduct, community organization, cultural restoration, and proclamation of nationality. It is both spiritual and civic. The nation is not merely a physical territory; it is a collective body of people who consciously align with divine principles and assert their identity through disciplined living. The emphasis is placed on reforming character, strengthening families, and building institutions rooted in moral law.
The maxim, “As above, so below As within, so without,” reflects the philosophical core of this national identity. It teaches that the external condition of a people mirrors their internal state. When individuals cultivate Love, Truth, Peace, Freedom, and Justice within themselves, the nation they form will reflect those same qualities. In this understanding, the restoration of the Moorish American Nation begins within the individual, extends to the family, and ultimately manifests in a disciplined, of self governing national body grounded in divine law and consciousness of their identity.
