Yes! The message is the MOST important thing. But if Allah swt wished, he could have made us all the same. Allah swt made us into tribes so that we would know each other. Our beloved Prophet pbuh made no attempt to end tribalism although it was ubiquitous at the time. The reality is… that diversity equals tension. There was tension among the tribes during the Prophet pbuh’s time and part of our miracles is the fact that he navigated this landscape with Devine wisdom. This tension is inevitable and this video and the comments is proof of that fact.

And the west needs to reinforce that idea for black communities to keep claiming their right ! The new RIGHT OF RETURN black to North Africa and Egypt , you would ask why Tunisia and Egypt , the easy answer is that all the world saw that the Arab spring started from Tunisia and it affected almost the whole Arabic world ! So they know that this little country has a huge impact and is intellectually dangerous and that explains the t-shirt Mark Zuckerberg was wearing in his birthday saying Carthage must fall , Carthage which is the capital of Tunisia , than why Egypt simply because Egypt is the gate to Palestine , and it’s the country with over 130 million citizen and the very first country who followed the Tunisian lead in the Arab spring !

The peninsular Arab tribes were 4, genetically and culturally; they were Arabian (Ishmaelites), Old South Arabian (Qahtani Arabs descendants of Hadramaut and Himyar) Abyssinians (look very different to other Africans), and the Cushites (ie people from Bilad Al Barbar/ the horn of Africa, ie the Somalis who also look very distinct from Africans and had shared lineages with both Ishmalites nd Old South Arabian peoples). The latter 3 racial groups skin tones varying from very dark skin to light brown skin, but are not racially "black" as we understand the term black today.

My comments keep getting deleted, so I'll try a new line re: the identity of Umar/Omar. Description of Umar/Omar's son Abdella. Excerpts from the book: "The Unknown Arabs - Clear, Definitive Proof of the Dark Complexion of the Original Arabs and the Arab Origin of the So-Called African Americans, by Tariq Berry, page 67 says, "Another very dark-skinned, well-known, noble Arab of the past is Abdella the son of Umar the son of El-Khattab. He was from the tribe of Quraish and his father, Umar, was the second Caliph of the Prophet (pbuh). Abu Ishaq El-Sabi'ee said, "I saw the son of Umar very dark-skinned and huge, with his loincloth raised halfway up his leg. Saalim the son Abdella the son of Umar the son of El-Khattab said, "I heard (Abdella) the son of Umar say, "We inherited our black complexion from our maternal uncles."

To be an Arab means you speak Arabic, the most eloquent speech. It has nothing to do with skin color, hair or eye color, nation or race. I am white, blue eyed and now am Arab because I studied Arabic and Quran for 20 years in Cairo. Anyone can be an Arab if you study hard for years. Sadly, those in the Middle East have mainly adopted English as their main focus. Arabic will always remain as it is the words of Allah in Quran.

I implore anyone to look at a current map of Yemen and then look at a map of the Kingdom of Aksum (Abyssinia / Ethiopia) during the time or Rasulullah (saws) and you will discover the modern geographical location of Yemen was at one time part of the Kingdom of Axum (Abyssinia / Ethiopia), specifically during the 1st Hijra (migration) of the Sahabah. When the Sahabah made their 1st migration to the Kingdom of Aksum (Abyssinia / Ethiopia), they didn't travel to the current geographical continent of Africa (as many may picture in their mind), instead, they traveled to the southern part of what today is known as the Arabian Peninsula - the geographical area of modern-day Yemen which was part of the Kingdom of Aksum (Abyssinia / Ethiopia) at that time. So, when we think of "black" we should not assume the phenotypes / skin complexions are exclusively native to the continent of Africa because people across the Red Sea resembled each other.

Arab with a black mother doesn’t mean he is going to be light skinned or mixed looking. Most southern Arabians were already brown with curly hair. He probably looked more like his mother. He wouldn’t have looked like a European- black mixed raced person anyway. Even today the ruling class Arabs are whiter than the rest because of mixing.

@@halimashehu770 A lot of what you said was true, but not everything. Some of your statements have nuance behind it. I don’t want to make this long, but the plain fact is that Bilal’s mother was Abyssinian (Habesha) and his father was Arab. I understand that the ancient Arabs were a dark skinned people. But colorism still existed among them just like it exists in the African American community today. We see lighter skin as more desirable because of the white people we see in power and want to assimilate into that paradigm. During the time of Bilal and the Arabs 1400 years ago, the Roman’s and Persians were superpowers. So the Arabs had the same inferiority complex that we have. Nonetheless the Arabs had tribalism just like Sub Saharan Africans have tribalism today. The point is that Arabs have intermixed with Abyssinians for a long time before the coming of prophet Muhummad. Not to mention that Yemeni southern Arabs and Axumite Abyssinians have been trading and coexisting since before the time of Jesus.

Without trying to be racist, how accurate are the hadith describing the appearance of the companions? I just don't like revisionist history. How the original Arabs looked like would have been similar to the Bedouin Arabs as they kept their nomadic lifestyle.

According to these types of people, everybody was black. They even claim the vikings were black. I'm not kidding.

[@Mugi5wara]

No the quran and sunnah says Allah created different races like different colors of mud, they were arabs so their skin tone was closer to white than black and in the case of the prophet (pbuh) he was a white skinned arab with dark hair according to hadiths and his cousin Ali (ra) is said to resemble him.

[@jiddasaid4456]

The question becomes, what is blackness? It is African American Is it Dark skinned African But, your postulation preclude it being any dark skinned. Your position seem influenced by recent history and colonialism. A tendency to see darskinned Africans as backwards, weak, enslaved and hence inferior. Is that what blackness evokes in your thought?

Yes, the Prophet ( صلى الله عليه وسلم ) was indeed a black Arab man resembling the complexion of Nipsey Hussel or Haile Selassie‼️ I also saw our Prophet ( صلى الله عليه وسلم ) in a dream many years ago‼️ The word Abyadh: “European or Caucasianal white” in Arabic is not what’s intended when the old Arabs talked‼️ Rather, what they meant was: Al Hintee Al-Laun meaning - “Wheatish or peanut Complexioned” with an Hilyah ( Overtone ) of Sudaa’a ( Black or brownness ), “Lightskinned” or “Mixed” because the Arabs originate from a hot region, constantly under the sun which naturally gives them a dark tinge and tanned so their complexions range from being very dark, light brown to many shades of a brown people never pink or red people‼️ So when the Arab used the word “Black” it simply meant very dark complexion Udmaa and “Abyadh” it mean light-brown or Lightskin‼️

Phoenicians are lebanese, canaanites are palestinians. These are the whitest Arabic speaking groups. The black Amazigh are a combination of the natural gradient of complexion within the base Amazigh population due to environmental factors and their genetic makeup and admixture from free or enslaved subsaharan Africans

May Allah bless him but the argument of them being black is not strong. To say one was named “The White One” doesn’t imply others were black, rather they were heavily tanned, central Asians from hot climates have the same nicknames too.

Read Ibn Mandhoor’s Lisan al Arabi. Also Dhahabi’s Seera A’laam Al Nubalaa. Read Ibn Abdull Birr in Al Tamheed lima fee Al Muwataa min Al Maany wa Al Asaaneed.
