Savior's Day

Savior's Day is a holiday of the Nation of Islam (NOI). It falls on February 26 and celebrates the birthdate of Wallace Fard Muhammad, whom the NOI believe to have been Allah in human form, the Savior of the Black race. Conventions are held on Savior's Day to meet and speak about important subjects, especially those related to the black community.

The NOI also recognizes October 7 as an important day because it is the birthdate of Elijah Muhammad, believed to be the Messenger of Allah/Fard.
