Professor Ibrahim Noor is very insightful masha'allah, we need more professors like him that are well versed in history

[Abu_Masla]

Extremely beneficial and informative video, looking forward to more In Shaa' Allah

[Chilani]

Mashallah, thank you for a great video, as always, brother 🙏

[Jeilani]

Mashallah brother I love your channel, I learn alot from my banaadir culture, like the professor Ibrahim said we have multiple identities and there is no contradiction. We are banaadir, we are also Somali. Somali don’t just mean “lamagoodle 😉 “ somali is diverse and the identity is still forming and as banaadir people it’s up to us to take our seat in the table, We are nation within a nation and there is no contradiction. We can’t isolate ourselves from our fellow somalis. there are issues but I don’t know any brothers without issues. We also have Swahili culture and there is no contradiction

Influence and Impact of Arabs in East Africa should never be downplayed or dismissed, sadly nowadays history revisionists are plotting on omitting Arab History.

[JustMe-ipte]

Really enjoyed this interview, the professor mentioned many many facts. Thank you Banadir Factor and team 🫳

[therealassasn]

This is what you guys don't get it. The Original Arabs were black, the dialects spoken along the Nile valley have words in Arabic.

[abbudythabit]

Thankyou for your insightful approach.
Kindly direct, how can I access Suogan Qabous University, I am interested in Islam and Muslims in East Africa

[Tiinhamar]

I hope that this important interview opens the door to an intensification of the cultural relationship between Oman and the Banaadiri for a better understanding of their historical and cultural relations. Few know that (for over two centuries) the Banaadiri economy was destroyed and prevented from being reborn by the ferocious Portuguese domination. This domination ended thanks to the military intervention of the Omans who first liberated their land and then chased the Portuguese away as far as Mozambique. The Banaadir are very indebted to Oman and for many years they were made to believe the opposite. Oman has also not done much to correct this historical distortion and we hope that in the coming years Omani historians will write books on the long and brotherly relationship between the Banaadiri and Omanis. The Omanis are in possession of many historical documents regarding their relations with the Banaadir and we hope that they will help the next Banaadiri generation to open their eyes.

Historia ya Kiislam maulama na masheikh wanatwambia kwamba Babu wetu Adam(A.S) wa Sisi wote alikuwa mweusi, Babu wetu Ibrahim (A.S) mweusi, Musa
(A.S) mweusi
Professor anaweza kuwa na haki yeye kuitwa mweusi.
Karibu tena Africa my Professor.

Great work brother! Please do a video with Prof Lodhi and Prof Noor discusiing the Arabian and Shirazi Persian conquest ino East Africa, where they first landed, and the main reason for their expansion South, and please describe the interactions between Kilwa and Banadir, Somalis and Arabians, when did they decline and who reached east Africa first?

Also, please discuss the Zanj and who enslaved them, and were these Arabians the same as those who came to trade goods instead of indentured labour?

Who discovered the Great Zimbabwe gold mines and established the Sofala region for trade between Somalis, the Arabs and Shirazis?

All these histories are intertwined and sometimes confusing, so much so we think the black Arabs are not African and the Arabians are not African. If possible, please differentiate between Turkic Arabs vs Arabian blacks of Yemen and Oman, similar to how Persia is divided into a black Elamite south and a Turkic north which rules the entire country from Tehran instead of Shiraz or Susa (check the Achaemenid "Immortal Guard"/ Persian Immortals.

Let us not be naive brothers and sisters, even India has black people with straight to curly hair.Disregard your racial sensitivities and attack this subject objectively without political biases.

God bless you brother, black is beautiful 🙏

People who have many identities are very dangerous to those who are indiginous.

wapendi wasipende we were there before the bantus i knew that a long time ago

[Ffiffijs]

East Africa actually ruled Arabia for a long time. In fact it was the colony of Ethiopia when Muhammad was born

This comment section is full of miskeen who don’t have knowledge of lineaoligy

[AbdulAli-kuhe]

Of course, Arabs were first natives of east Africa coast, Central Africa(Cameroon) is the homeland of the BANTUS before the Bantu expansion. No doubt about that.
