Sure sxb, but don’t generalize like that because it honestly sounds ridiculous.
Funny story: last time I was at my local mosque, which is basically made up of like 50% Somalis and the other 50% Arabs and Southeast Asians, our imam who's Somali was giving us info about the time and location for Eid. But he chose to say it all in Arabic.

Right away a bunch of uncles stood up and were like, “Say it in Somali or even Swedish. (I live in Sweden) We’re not Arabs, we don’t speak Arabic " Our only connection with the Arab world is Islam so dont conflate the two.

Why would you want to be Arab? Alhamdulilah our Prophet SAW was an Arab so I have love for them. But I’d rather Identify as Black 10/10 times than identify as an Arab and look like I have no self esteem.
 
Dawg much of the arab world are claiming their historical origins from lebanon to morocco. If they are no longer interested in the modern arab identity that shows something
Don’t you have some Arab ancestry? How do you feel about all this anti-Arab hate and these qaxooti throwing the word cabiid around :icon lol:

New generation Somalis are Madowified or are closeted gaal or munafiqeen they developed inferiority complex towards Arabs like Black Americans have to White Americans despite Somalis never being colonized or enslaved by Arabs go figure
 
I don’t condone Somalis calling themselves Arabs or even dressing like them, but if guys like this can be Arabs I don’t know how any confused Somali claiming to be an Arab can be considered a coon based solely on not looking ‘Arab’.

Ngl I wouldn't raise an eyebrow if Omar al Bashir claimed to be Arab. He fits the look

Are you talking about the Sudanese? the biggest difference is that Sudanese people have Arab ancestors and they actually speak Arabic. They have both Arab language and Arab ancestry.

The average Somali doesn’t have either. Habeshas have a better claim to be Arab than the average Somali. At least the average Habesha speaks a Semitic language.

We don't speak Arabic as a native language and we don't share culture with Arabs except religious stuff and Yemeni influence. Culturally Turks , Persians etc are closer to Arabs than us
Language is the biggest factor though, you can't really be Arab if you don't speak Arabic as your native language.

Aren't sudanese Arab tribes like 40% eurasian like Somalis and other horners? The Arab mixture doesn't seem too high in Sudan. Some Arab tribes in Sudan are pretty much language shifted Nubians

Arab is more linguistic than is genetics. Sudanese speak Arabic, we don't, we speak Somali. I'm probably in a minority but it's actually a blessing we didn't get Arabized

Egypt was once the epicentre of the world, the majority of Egyptians can't understand their ancestors language Coptic. I never wish that ever happened to us :lawd:

Who are the arabs their two types.

1. Ancestoral Arab(they can live in middle east or outside of it, they must have tribal origin in Yemen or else they cannot claim such thing.

2. Converted arabs who are of a different ancestoral stock but culturally is Arab today like many in the shaam, maghrib, Egypt those people were not arabs prior but upon conquest adopted arabic culture with their own twist to it obviously. Mind u there many ancestoral stock arabs in converted areas of the mid east also and previous older population who merged.

The Same thing exists in Israel, their all jews bro who went separate regions like Africa and mid east or Europe in different time periods and waves.

I’d rather Somalis learn Arabic it’s a noble language

Also homogenization happens as we see naturally with globalization languages are coalescing, as we see English has and will eat a lot of languages like how many European languages did in the 20tg century but now are by English

Somali might be absorbed by either Swahili with has 100+ million speakers or worse in Waqqoyi /Bari some Ethiopian language it’s best we learn Arabic and protect ourselves and join a more noble coalition

Berber languages died out also many adjacent Northren Semitic languages like Assyrian Aramaic Phoenician languages etc

Most Afro Asiatic languages that aren’t in isolated backwater regions have been absorbed by Arabic

only ones that still exist are Ethiopian ones and south Yemeni dialects
