The Holy Tablets
The Holy Tablets is a religious text written by Dwight York, under the name Malachi Z. York. It was first published in 1996 by York's religious movement Holy Tabernacle Ministries, later the Nuwaubian Nation. At over 1,700 pages long, the work contains numerous sagas telling the stories of various religious figures, in a biblical style. It also contains lengthy genealogies of these figures, and full page illuminated illustrations of many of them. Taking influence from Quranist writer Rashad Khalifa, the book has a preoccupation with the number 19, with 19 chapters, each divided into subchapters called "tablets", which each have an amount of verses that is a multiple of 19.

Narratives featured in the book include the creation of mankind, the history of Islam among black people in America, and the history of how "true" Islam was supposedly hijacked by an imposter Muhammad...
