During 1966 and 1967, the heavyweight boxer appealed his draft status, saying, I can fight in wars declared only by Allah himself. He was sentenced to five years in prison, though the Supreme Court ruled in 1971 that he was entitled to conscientious objector status.这些政府文件摘要表明，在阿里拒绝服兵役期间，国家安全局一直监控阿里。在1966和1967年期间，这名重量级拳击选手向法院申请不去服兵役，他说，“我只有在真主的召唤下才会应征入伍。”尽管最高法院于1971年裁定阿里为“因宗教信仰原因不肯服兵役者”，但在那之前，阿里依旧被判处五年有期徒刑。2.

But he would never return to the stage after his conviction was overturned.音乐剧中几乎每一首歌都是阿里演唱的，阿里在剧中扮演一名激进的黑人演说者，剧中这位演说者正在一个由黑人政治团体组织的会议上发言。然而，在最高法院为他翻案之后，他再也没有登上音乐剧舞台。3.
