Nig--r in the Quran

There are numerous places in which the Quran reads, "They are niggardly in their actions" or "they are niggardly in their speech" and even "niggardly in their dress."

Now, I'm just wondering how one can be a Black Muslim knowing this.

Isn't that like being a Jewish Nazi?

 

and what if i may ask is the arabic version of it ? the original language of the Quran

 

I suggest you look up the definition of the word niggardly. It does not imply the word ****** from a racist point of view.

the word niggar means ignorant, to dress niggardly means to dress ignorantly, the white slave owners gave this name to blacks because they considered them to be stupid, the Quran was written long before the African slave trade to the Americas, thus it has no racial implications.

 

incorrect translation to denote stinginess and avaricious behaviour! this word shouldn't have been used in the first place because it does not express the Arabic word truthfully.

 

Thanks for the correction brother

 

you are welcome brother
