Many of the hadith were written by non-Arabs, especially Iranian Arabs or Arabs of Iranian descent who had settled in Yemen like Munabbih. Many of them appear to have been unfamiliar of Arabian culture and physical appearance writing about things like how they ate with their hands or that Muhammed said something about being respectful to a man "even if he had hair" was like raisins. When even fair- skinned people today from modern southern Palestine to Jordan have kinky and even woolly hair it becomes obvious that the "even if he had hair on his head like raisins" descriptive addendum of some lank haired person in some non-Arab place like Iran or Syria. [IMG]http://i45.tinypic.com/ouunth.jpg[/IMG] This bedouin of Jordan reflects the appearance of many Jordanian and Hejaz clans. His appearance was probably typical of the most Arabians of Muhammed's time and much later if we are to believe Dhahabi 14th century Syrian. [/qb][/QUOTE]I have a hard time believing people that looked like this which was probably considered white by Arabs were saying derogatory things about kinky haired people. Tabari, Isfehan, and many other Islamic commentarists were living in Iran where the myth of black and cursed Ham (Chamar), Daasa or Daae and Zanj had been centuries in full bloom. [/QB][/QUOTE]
