The ancient Egyptians were true Negroes of the same type as all native born Africans.
when the Arab conquerors of Egypt captured Alexandria, they burnt all the books in the great Library. Their commander, Amr Ibn al-’As, was said to have written to the Caliph Umar to ask what should be done with the books, to which ’Umar replied, “If these writings of the Greeks agree with the Qur’an, they are useless and need not be preserved. If they disagree, they are pernicious and ought to be destroyed.” And so, Amr had the world’s greatest collection of ancient knowledge burnt.
It’s clear that many of the assumptions made about past Arab attitudes toward Ancient Egypt are not justified in reality. Someone who has done much to challenge long established thinking on this subject is Egyptologist Okasha El-Daly. He wrote a ground-breaking study of early Arab writing on Egypt. He describes many writers and the topics in which they were interested. Some of El-Daly's conclusions may be disputed but he's certainly pointed to a gap in understanding of Egypt’s history and pointed the way to further research.
