Would it be OK if the head of the KKK said any black man who has sex with a white woman would be killed?
I think they already say that, or at least they did back then. Emmett Till got killed for supposedly whistling at a white woman.
So Ali is equal to murderous Klansmen. Thank you.

Did Alit ever do anything like that the Black Panthers and Black Muslims were certainly terorist groups like the KKK (not in scale), though if that's what you're saying.

The NOI has a history of burning crosses in front yards of white people,bombing white churches, hanging white people?

No, but they definitely encouraged violence, like i said in scale they aren't close to what the KKK was doing.

I thought they were about self-defense, not terrorizing folk.

IDK, i think some of them offered rewards for killing whites or policemen, i've never studied them in depth though.

How about Hank Aaron, possibly the biggest racist alive?

The Nation of Islam has a history of racism. Belonging to it the same as belonging to the KKK. Just the color is different.

No, but they definitely encouraged violence,

Seperatism, don't know about racism. The NOI doesn't have the violent history that the Klan does.
Maybe the NOI exists and has formed their beliefs because of centuries of slavery, and then Jim Crow and police brutality, economic and political oppression. Just maybe.
The NOI is unlikely to be composed of members who are descendents of people who held white folk in slavery or passed seperate but unequal laws and kept white folk from voting or owning land.
