Interracial relationships

if i am not mistaken there is a say from koran or from hadith: educated people surely differ from uneducated.
this is the only characteristic which differs people. to me the problem is in muslim world's not enough knowledge to have the power nd put its right rules rather than white/black racists.

maybe i shouldn't write anything here, because i haven't seen racism probs here in my area.

Assalamu Alaikum Family,

 

This is a very good topic; I think a man or woman should be able to marry any race of people they choose because love is color blind. I do not think arranged marriages are right either you need to know someone if your going to spend the rest of you life with them. I think this whole race issue is largely due to lack of knowledge of other cultures and people not being taught history correctly. It is also being influenced by Western White Supremacists thinking that dark is bad and white is pure and great. Just look at the dark countries of the world vs. the whiter countries of the world see it first hand

Well Muslimah the Arabs who practice this and are Muslims apparently do not understand that aspect of Islam. Islam, when it came to the Arabs came as a "non-traditional" religion. Sometimes we must see the big picture. If God truly wanted us to be separate then he wouldn't give all humasn on this earth the ability to generate children with others from different cultures. I'm sorry, I feel that any endogamous tradition practices and teaches children to "marry your own kind" is  simple prejudice that goes against Islamic teachings. How can you say you're a believer in the every word God mentions in the Qur'an yet practice prejudice. Again its hypocrisy!

Like I said before the religion of Islam when it came to the pagan Arabs was not an Arab tradition. The Bedouin Arabs who migrated and settled in Arabia worshipped many gods which became apart of their tradition and since the advent of Muhammad the religion of Islam has thus became apart of their tradition now. Sometimes change is good. The same can apply for interracial marriage.

Sister Muslima thank you for your understand......

Unfortunately, like evolution, people will have to gradually change their way of thinking and unfortunately it will not happen in my life time. I have seen too many cultural practices implimented behind the face of religion. Some practices justiy themselves using religion. These are unnecessary attributions to the Islamic culture.
