I am a White Muslim, so I’d like to offer my insights on this thread and the topic brought up by Frederic, about “race mixing in Islamâ€.
To begin with, race mixing in Islam takes many different forms:
- In North Africa, there are numerous examples of Arabs marrying and/or having kids with Black Africans, and this began with the
Arab Slave Trade, when Arab men first traveled to Africa and began enslaving the blacks that lived there. Some (probably a majority) of the current North Africans that you see today are full Arab, but there are also some people in North Africa who are full Negro, or appear to be a mix of Arab and Negro. It’s impossible to say exactly where this mix comes from, but certainly many Arab men had sex with their Black slave women and this is probably what started this kind of ethnicity several hundred years ago. In some countries, slavery still exists today where Arabs enslave blacks in places like Mauritania. This can also be seen, though to a lesser extent, in East Africa. It's also worth pointing out that in many Arab countries today, such as Egypt, there still exists a great deal of racism where light skinned Arabs feel they are superior to blacks, who are still seen as a slave class.
- In the Middle East, there is almost no race mixing with blacks because of course in countries like Iraq, Iran, Syria, Jordan, Palestine, Afghanistan, and so on there are literally almost zero black people.
- In the “West†(USA, Canada, Germany, UK, France, Sweden, Finland etc.), what is interesting, is that in current times there are
many instances of race mixing involving wealthy Arab men with multiple White European wives, almost all of whom have converted to Islam by choice. Many of these White women married to Arab men are from Western Europe (places like France, England, Germany), USA, or even Ukraine/Russia. What’s ironic is that many White women in Western Europe are surrounded by a feminist upbringing that preaches gender and racial equality in Western Europe or North America, then they suddenly decide to convert to Islam, cover themselves, and marry an Arab man who absolutely owns them under Islamic law (and the Arab man is free to have multiple wives). There is no “gender equality†in Islam, so it is a shocking choice these White women are making.
Here’s a video which aired on Nation-wide English Television (BBC) which discusses a growing number of White, former Christian, English women converting to Islam and covering themselves with Hijabs, in hopes of marrying Arab husbands and having Arab children under Islamic law:

It really is shocking when you consider how much feminist propaganda exists in Western Europe and North America, that so many liberated White women would “give it all up†and choose a completely different lifestyle by converting to Islam and marrying an Arab man under the pretext of
no gender equality whatsoever. Understand that in Islamic law, the husband owns his wife. So these White women are not only converting to Islam but they are granting their body for life to their Arab husband and giving up everything that gender equality has taught them in the West.
Another interesting point is that many of these White women who convert to Islam and marry an Arab man, are former leftists, feminists and progressives. The video details White career women who have converted to Islam and married Arab men.
So, the White woman in France or England grows up her whole life campaigning for gender equality, racial equality, and feminism and then they suddenly throw it all away and cover their entire body with a hijab to marry an Arab husband who basically treats them like a prostitute, using them for sex and often times has numerous White wives.
The Arab-German famous footballer and member of the German team, Sami Khedira, has a White European wife who is also a model, Lena Gercke:
On the other hand, there are also many examples of White men who marry Muslim, Middle Eastern or South Asian women.
A lot of Iranian, Afghani, Pakistani, and Indian Muslim women want to marry White men because they immigrate to North America or Europe and they want to “fit inâ€. George Clooney, the A-list White American Actor recently made headlines for becoming engaged to an Arab woman from Lebanon. Here’s a picture of George Clooney (White male) and his sexy Middle-Eastern Muslim fiancée, Amal Alamuddin:

In the USA, the NHL Hockey goaltender of the Buffalo Sabres and Team USA, Ryan Miller, has a Muslim South Asian (Indian) wife, her name is Noureen DeWulf:
Eric Cantona, a White man known as being one of France’s best ever footballers and one of Manchester United’s all time greats, also has a Muslim, North African wife, named Rachid Brakni:
So, overall, race mixing in Islam and with Muslims takes many different forms. Race mixing is neither encouraged nor discouraged in Islam. Race mixing is up to individual people.
A final point I would like to bring up is that in some Muslim families race mixing is an absolute no-no. Here where I live in Canada, a Muslim Pakistani father killed his Pakistani daughter because she had a Latino boyfriend. In Montreal, an Afghan family murdered their 3 daughters because they were acting “slutty†and going around with White and Spanish boyfriends. It was all over the news, search “Shafia Murders Montreal†on google.
