For over 20 years, Malcolm Smith's incredible healing gifts have relieved pain, suffering and disease for thousands of people. Known as “an ordinary man with an extraordinary gift,” Malcolm discovered his healing ability through a spiritualist medium who told him he had ‘healing hands’. When he expressed doubt, the medium told him to place his hands on his wife, Kathleen, who suffered from a chronic, painful kidney ailment. When he did, her pain went completely away and never returned. For the next two years, he used his gift only on his family before going public.

While in prison for burglary, Malcolm Little adopted the Black Muslim faith and became a minister of the Nation of Islam upon his release in 1952. As Malcolm X, he was a charismatic advocate of black separatism who rejected Martin Luther King, Jr.'s policies of non-violence. Malcolm X broke with the Nation of Islam in 1964. That same year he made a pilgrimage to Mecca and shortly afterwards he embraced orthodox Islam and took the name El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz. He recanted some of his earlier more strident viewpoints on race, though he remained a staunch advocate of "black power." He was shot to death by a group of men while giving a speech in New York City in 1965; some of the men had connections to the Nation of Islam, though a formal tie between that group and the assassination was never proven.
