No libtard academic today can give a cogent explanation for why Arabs began to think of themselves as white upon their encounter with Sub-Saharan Africans. These people believe the concept of race was invented during the Enlightenment.
A few illustrative examples of medieval Islamic texts:
The Pride of Blacks on Whites by Al-Jahiz
Sudan and their Ascendancy over Whites by Al-Marzaban
Promenade in Preference among Whites, Blacks and Coloured by Al-Suyuti
The Pride of Blacks on Whites by Al-Jahiz
Sudan and their Ascendancy over Whites by Al-Marzaban
Promenade in Preference among Whites, Blacks and Coloured by Al-Suyuti
These are just texts that invoke the concept of whiteness in contrast to blackness in the *title.* You can find tons of literary texts drawing a strict contrast between whiteness and blackness in Muslim records going back more than a millennia. This book is a good resource.
Crazy how Arabs invented a time machine and travelled to Enlightenment-era Europe to appropriate the concept of negroes.
