Today, June 27, 2026, the Nation of Islam announced the passing
of Mother Khadijah Farrakhan — the First Lady of the Nation of
Islam and beloved wife of the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan.
She was 90 years old.
In this tribute video we honor:
✅ Who Mother Khadijah Farrakhan was & her life of service
✅ 72 years of marriage to Minister Louis Farrakhan
✅ Born Betsy Ross in 1935 — her journey to becoming Mother Khadijah
✅ Her conversion to Islam with Minister Farrakhan in 1955
✅ Her powerful speech at the 1997 Million Woman March
✅ Her legacy as mother of 9 children & First Lady of the NOI
✅ The family’s tremendous losses in recent years
✅ The Nation of Islam’s official statement

Her words will live forever:
"A nation can rise no higher than its women.
We focus on women but cannot lose sight that
we must rise as a family — men, women and children."
Mother Khadijah was more than a wife.
She was a pillar of the Nation of Islam.
A devoted follower of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad.
A mother. A warrior. A Queen.
72 years by his side.
A lifetime in service to Allah and her people.
May Allah grant her the highest place in Jannah
and give Minister Farrakhan and the entire
Farrakhan family strength in this time of mourning.
