Who cares if somali identifies or is called black, especially in something positive as this subject.

There is no evidence for this.
According to Muslim traditional sources Islam entered Africa during the migration of the sahabas in Ethiopia, the Ethiopian king may have converted to Islam in the 7 century but we don't know how many Ethiopians followed him. Anyway Islam reached the coast of modern Somalia in the 7 the century, the ancient mosque in Zeila was built during that time. According to most historians though the Islamization of the somali people was gradual , somalis became fully muslim by the 13th-14th century. In the beggining nomads in the interior were still pagan.
It's a misconception to say that Somalia converted in the 7 the century, it was a gradual process that stretched through many centuries
The xabashis were the first gaals in africa
 
theres no such thing as "black" outside america. its an identity for descendants of freed black americans
Sudan = land of the blacks
Ethopian = Burnt faces
Cush/ite - Description of some darkskinned african
Black has been used over and over in history to discribe different Africans.

If you mean christian then no, the habashi were the first Christian state but they were not the first people to convert in mass to Christianity. Ethiopia became officially christian in the 4th century while Christian communities existed in north Africa since just after the times of Jesus

Fake news on Cushite meaning darkskinned. It derives from the Kingdom of Kush and it is a (self-made) endonym by Meroitic Nubians themselves.

You are correct on Sudan (Arabic) and Ethiopia (Greek) (EXOnyms), but totally wrong on the original and first meaning of Kush.

Before you try to refute this, learn what an ENDOnym is:


Also:

The native name of the Kingdom was recorded in Egyptian as k3š, likely pronounced [kuɫuʃ] or [kuʔuʃ] in Middle Egyptian, when the term was first used for Nubia, based on the New Kingdom-era Akkadian transliteration of the genitive kūsi.[11][12][13]

Alright. I'm not arguing with you. I'm right on both fronts and that's all that matters.

You are dead wrong on the term Kush, don't hijack it for your BS BLM agenda. Cush likely meant (in Meroitic) either Kingdom or "folk, of the people", like what Deutsch meant originally.
