Ia menjadi ketua nasional (Supreme Minister) Nation of Islam pada tahun 1975 setelah kematian ayahnya.[5] Sebagai hasil pembelajaran dan pemikirannya, ia berhasil memimpin mayoritas anggota N.O.I. asli beralih ke Islam Sunni yang lebih umum pada tahun 1978.[6] Melalui penggabungan ini, ia memimpin perpindahan massal ke agama Islam terbesar sepanjang sejarah Amerika Serikat.[7] Ia menolak penuhanan Wallace Fard Muhammad sebagaimana yang terjadi sebelumnya, menerima orang kulit putih sebagai sesama pemeluk, mempererat hubungan dengan komunitas Muslim secara umum, dan memperkenalkan Rukun Islam ke teologi organisasinya.[2][8]

Kelompok-kelompok pecahan yang menolak perubahan tersebut dibentuk setelah kematian Elijah Muhammad, khususnya di bawah pimpinan Louis Farrakhan, yang memakai kembali nama Nation of Islam untuk organisasinya.[2][9]
