The statue of Ibn Hazm

Abu Muhammad Ali ibn Ahmad ibn Saʿid ibn Hazm (994 – 1064) was an Andalusian Muslim polymath, historian, jurist, philosopher, and theologian, born in the Caliphate of Cordoba, present-day Spain. Muhallah: The Adorned Treatise. Its essential focus is on matters of jurisprudence or fiqh. In it he gives the Zanj of East Africa a lower function under all other humans. In his Jamharat ansab al-Arab: Arab population lineages; he does have a descendant of Fatima marry a Zanjiyya women; in this way acknowledging that there are black African people among the descendants of the Prophet.

Then we ask them: Does God Almighty love His creation in the land of Islam so that only a caller to the religion and a benefactor of it are met over the one who is created in the land of Zinj, China and the Romans, so that only one who hears the religion of Muslims invalidates it …….

 

Jesus is a prophet, speaking, sensibly in the cradle, as a messenger when he fell from his mother's womb, and when Yahya came to rule as a boy, he completed and exalted and increased his bounty on those born in the far reaches of the countries of the West and the Zinj where he had not heard ………

 

They said: No. They have hearts with which they cannot understand, and they have eyes with which they cannot see, and they have ears with which they cannot hear [Surat Al-A'raf: 179]. Do you see these people what they saw is that God Almighty took money from a people, gave it to others; and a people’s prophet, He sent him to His servants, and created others in the ends of the Zinj land who worship idols and who killed some of his guardians and to his enemies with thirst, He had the heavens and others water fresh water on them .………….

 

And there is no evidence to allocate it in some aspects of faith. Abu Muhammed said: In front of us, the argument was not established against the one who violates the right in anything, so he would not be an infidel except that a text has reached him and he is in the far reaches of the Zinj. ……………..

 

Those who believe in him are accepted and his money, blood, family and son are forbidden, and he is judged by the rule of Islam, and among them are the Bedouin woman, the shepherd, the desert boy, the brutal, the Zinj, the exiled, the compulsive, the brought forth, the Rumi, the Romans, the ignorant and the weak in his understanding, neither of them nor anyone else.

 

Because the people of the regions are from the heart of China to the end of Andalusia (1), to the lands of Zinj, to the countries of Saqqalqah (2) and in between, so the success of this ignorant atheist's disbelief and his deception of Islam is for everyone who has the slightest sense of weakness.

 

God Almighty, since this is undoubtedly and there is no reward in the hereafter except for work, and he does not benefit from God Almighty through wombs or births, and the world is not a penalty spot, so there is no difference between Hashemi (3), Qureshi (4), Arabi, Ajami (5), Habashi (6), Ibn Zanjiya, generosity and victory for those who fear God Almighty. Ahmed bin Abdullah Al-Basir told us, Qasim bin Asbaa told us, Abd told us…………….

 

……………., and this section is divided into three parts, one of which is refraining from disappearance, such as paltry glaucoma, blackness of the Zinj and the like, except that if he was delusional, the person would remain a human being in a state and the second slow fading, like the redness and blackness of hair………..

 

A believer in the world until the Day of Resurrection, …………………… is like someone who embraced Islam from the Zinj, the Romans, Persians, slaves, the weakness of women and shepherds, and those who were brought up in Islam by teaching by his father or his master, and they are the most and the majority, ……………..

 

……….. so what the Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said to the people of a village or a town or a neighbourhood, or a shepherd, or a Zinj, or a woman, I do not accept your Islam until I know what is inferred from others. And his belief may be a misguidance, as well as all the Companions, may God be pleased with them, …………..

 

The Zinj and the raven and the garment are none of that black and all that is seen and the color of all that we have mentioned is a color other than black, except that it was called black metaphorically. Some of them said blackness is a common name that falls on the darkness and falls on the color of the Zinj and the raven and the garment, then every darkness is black, and not all blackness is darkness. If you mean black, the color of the Zinj and the crow and the garment, he sees and he is not the darkness, and some said the darkness is not black at all, and blackness is something other than darkness. It is a color that he sees, and some said darkness and blackness is one thing, ………

……… and it was not one of the laws that must be known from the obligatory, prohibited and permissible; but we are talking with our opponents about the laws that bind the people of China.

 

And Al-Khalidat (=Canary Islands) and those in Khorasin (7) and Zinj judges and the magistrates of the land of Saqqalp (=Slaves N-Europe). It also obliges the Companions (of the Prophet) and the people of Madinah, a flat obligation that is not differentiated ………….

Thus opens Ibn Ḥazm’s Jamharat Ansab al-Arab, a 10th-century genealogical register:

 

Indeed God, the praised and gloried, has said: Truly we created you male and female and made you into peoples and tribes in order that you may know each other. Verily the most honorable of you before God is the most righteous of you. […] We were told by Said b. Abi Said, who is al-Maqburi (8), via his father, via Abu Hurayra (9), that [they said]: O messenger of God! Who is among the most honorable of people? He responded: The most righteous of them! They said: This is not what we are asking you about. He said: Yusuf, the prophet of God, son of the prophet of God, son of the comrade of God. They replied: This is not what we are asking you about. [The Prophet] said: Then, are you asking me about the origins of the Arabs? The best of them in the jahiliyya (10) is the best of them in the [age of] Islam, if they comprehend [it]. And indeed God Almighty has pronounced that the most honorable [individual] is the most righteous, even if he is the bastard son of a Negress [ibn zanjiyya li-ghayya], and indeed the most disobedient unbeliever is diminished in rank, even if he is the son of two prophets. Thus the mutual knowledge of people by means of their nasab (11) is an objective that the Almighty had in creating us peoples and tribes, hence it must be the case that the science of nasab is a science of high regard, for with it comes mutual knowledge.

The Ahl al-Islam are all brethren, and it is not forbidden for the son of a Zanj to marry the daughter of a Caliph, and an

immoral person who has reached the depths of corruption, but who is a Muslim, so long as he is not an adulterer, is the

equal of a virtuous Muslim woman, and a virtuous Muslim man is the equal of a corrupt woman, so long as she is not an

adulteress; what is preferred is the marriage of certain relatives to others.
