is that Ali refused induction not out of principle but from fear of disobeying Elijah Muhammad, who had stipulated that the champ not serve in a “white man’s war.”
IMHO, "fear" is the wrong word. Ali wanted to follow the advice of Elijah Muhammed not out of fear, but, out of Ali's desire to be a good "church" member.
