[QUOTE]Originally posted by dana marniche: [QB] "The first and second zones are excessively hot and black..." Ibn Khaldun 14th century. Modern SCHOLAR Uthmān Sayyid Ahmad Ismā’īl Bīlī summarized in more detail what Ibn Khaldun relates of the peoples and geography of the two zones of the blacks or Sudani. "West Africa, according to these sub-zonal divisions, falls in the first section of the first zone. This section also includes the lands of the Veiled Berber. Nuba is in the middle of this first zone, in the fourth section of it and Abyssinia is in the fifth section, the same section in which the Indian ocean ends. Yemen is in the sixth section of the first zone. Ghana and Zaghawa as well as Qanuriyah (the lands of the Kanuri or Bornu) fall in the first and second sections of the second Zone and Hijaz and Nejd are in the sixth section of that zone. The Buja lands lie in the third and fourth sections of the second zone. Upper Egypt lies in the fourth section of the second zone and lower Egypt lies in the fifth section of it (Bili, Some Aspects of Islam in Africa, 2008, pp. 17-18). THUS these are the blacks in their lands in the 15th ceentury Central Arabia, i.e. Nejd, Hijaz i.e. western Arabia - the Holy Land of the Arabs and land of Al-HARRA, southern Egypt, Kanuria (Bornu), Ghana, lands of the Nubians and the Beja, Abyssinia and southern Arabia i.e. the Yemen, AND the "VEILED BERBER" i.e. Tuareg. BTW - I just found some blog that says Ibn Kathir wrote : “Among mankind there are Berbers, Ethiopians and (some) barbarians who are very black”. Tafsir al-Qur’an al-‘Azim, Dar al-Taybah, Beirut 1999 vol.6 p.544 The wonders never cease. :D [/QB][/QUOTE]
