"the lowest form of slaves, exclusively Africans, to Arabs, to have a dark skin is a sign of slavery, unfortunately this level of slavery was the most brutal and inhuman , cabids used to be sold,bought and inherited like any other goods a person can have."
Lejusticier! Il be civil as long as he is civil. He has been cussing at me for the past whole month up in here.
False
How can dark skin be considered a sign of slavery when most Arabs at the early stages of Islam were dark skinned themselves?
If you can understand a little bit of Arabic, listen to this talk on Ubadah ibn Samit, who was a Sahabi from Yathrib (Medina) from the tribe of Khazraj. Why was he described as being very dark skinned, along with most of his men that conquered Egypt, even though they were all pure Arabs!

"After the Prophet, there was request for reinforcement from Syrian front. `Umar sent `Ubadah and three others, each heading a force of 1000, with a message that the four were equivalent of 4000 warriors. `Ubadah was there at the fall of Hims, a stronghold of the Romans. He also participated in the fall of Tartus.
He was commandeering the Right Flank during the last battle the Romans put up at Qaysariyyah. It was a hard fought battle. Muslims were repelled several times. Finally, `Ubadah climbed down his horse and began advancing towards the Romans. Several others joined him. Ultimately, they became a big block moving forward. The Romans could not withstand and the day was for the Muslims.
When Mu`awiyyah led an army into `Amuriyyah, he had a force of 10,000 with him which included Abu Dharr GhiFari, Shaddad b. Aws, Abu Ayyub al-Ansari and `Ubadah b. al-Samit. What army could stand before these Companions, even if few in numbers?
At Alexandria, `Ubadah was sent heading a delegation to the Roman commander to work out terms of treaty if it could be struck. But the white Romans waxed proud and said they did not like to negotiate with a black. `Ubadah told their commander that there were 1000 black men in the camp behind him each of whom would not fear confronting 100 men at a time. The commander was alarmed by the conviction that resonated with `Ubadah’s voice. He attempted to first intimidate him with the news of the imminent arrival of a Roman force and then bribe him. But `Ubadah stubbornly told him that Muslims actually welcomed battling any force as it would eventually result in victory or martyrdom, two desirable consequences. He gave him three options: accept Islam, pay Jizyah, or fight it out. Following consultations, they opted to fight it out, and the same day the castle fell to Muslims.
`Ubadah was a fearless warrior. Once while the Muslims had besieged a fort, `Ubadah was found alone praying in a field. A few Roman soldiers came down, but before they could come close, he jumped to his horse and advanced towards them. They took a U-turn in panic and dropped down their arms to distract him in the chase. But he chased them until they were in the safety of the fort. As he returned, he paid no attention to the arms they had dropped down."
