He served in all capacities except that of pastor, mainly due to the fact that, at that time, he had become heavily involved in the civil rights movement. He also worked with the anti–Vietnam War movement about the same time. Because he refused service in the military, he was sentenced to five years in prison and ordered to pay a twenty-five-hundred-dollar fine. He then became a fugitive and joined many of the black revolutionary groups. He was eventually taken into custody for his antiwar stance, at which time he joined the NOI. After release in 1975, he served as assistant minister at Temple #26, in San Francisco, California. By then, the NOI was coming under new leadership of I’m W. Deen Mohammed. So Yahya Shabazz now serves as an imam under Imam W. Deen Mohammed.view less
