I didnt know mixed race relationships were this common in the muslim community

[Manny2828]

Islam is one religion I can see that race isn’t a factor. I live next to a mosque and I see black people, Pakistani, Arabs all go in the same building. Meanwhile, there’s a black churches and white churches just a block away from each other

There is no inherent racial factor in Islam but anti-blackness is still present in the arab zeitgeist.

 

[Jazzy B.]

There maybe no race in Islam BUT RACE DEFINITELY MATTERS to Muslims.

That’s why Arabs PRIMARILY TRAFFIC BLACK MUSLIM AFRICAN WOMEN and use them as sex workers or SLAVES.

Its in the teaching of muhammad circa 630 AD


O people, verily your Lord is One and your father is one (Adam). Verily there is no superiority of an Arab over a non-Arab or of a non-Arab over an Arab, or of a red man over a black man, or of a black man over a red man, except in terms of piety.

Whole thread is


"Islam is a great unifier across racial lines"

 

[Iceson Beckford]

Strong disagree

A lot of Muslim observing cultures are against it and very much push marrying within your race.


Islam on the other hand strongly supports marrying across race nationality aslong as you are Muslim.

 

[Fiji Water]

There are 4 reasons to marry a woman per the last prophet (pbuh). As long as she's a believer it's Sunnah.



The man was an orphan and khadijah was a cougar. Get married, ahkbrehs.

 

[The Wall Is Undefeated!]

no it will not.

you think arabs would actually go to war with, say black muslim or south asian muslim over a fellow arabs just because they are non muslim?

Kinda. ISIS/Daesh had a lot of foreign gunmen within their organisation. Let's not go there with ISIS/Daesh enslaving non Muslim Middle Easterners. Most wars throughout human history have been about 2 things. Greed and Pride. The fact that many wars occurred within so-called 'races' shows that skin colour isn't a good unifier of people.

but honestly, interracial dating is more common with christians than muslims

I can't say

True. That's more to do with the history of America rather than religion.

 

[Negro Caesar]

Most brehs I saw ”revert” to Islam, did so with dating Arab women as the main incentive. Especially the Francophone ones. Make of that what you will.

Side bar: my ex’s dad is Carribean and her mom is Moroccan. He converted just to marry her only to split up a few years after she was born. Funny how it’s rarely (if ever) the other way round.

if he converted just to marry a woman, was he ever really muslim?

 

[s@n]

nearly all the American muslims were from Maryland, why is that

Because this was In Bmore

[Mike Nasty]

Note how none of them were from Qatar or UAE either.

That's cause they're in Baltimore.

 

[ABlackMan]

There is no race in true Islam but the human race

Exactly
