Somalis genetically closer to the Arabs than black.

No we are not.

60% Sub Saharan DNA on average.

And if there is further confusion, look in the mirror. If you are still confused after the mirror consultation, look at your family members. Wali ma shaki baa kuugu jira? Orad Somalia aad, and look at the average skintone.
I apologize, but I live in an Arab country, and apart from my skin tone, my features are similar to those of the Arabs. People assume I'm Arab daily, and I'm tired of explaining that I'm not. I also frequently see mixed black Arab and white Arab people who look Somali. We are definitely in denial about our Arab mix. At some point, Arabs came to Somalia, and there was intermixing. Everything from food to uunsi to dressing is so similar that it would be blind to think we're not somehow linked. Don’t forget love of camels and nomadic Bedouin culture as well. Somalis have an inferiority complex, and saying we're closer to Arabs doesn't take anything away from our Somaliness. In fact, many Arab communities, like those in Mauritania and Morocco, have an Arab identity that is not so dominant but still present. On the other hand, you want to identify with the Bantu, with whom there is no cultural or genetic connection, unlike the connections we have with Arabs.

In the Khaleeji country where I live, Somalis integrate so well with the locals that, when they grow up here, you can't tell if they're from this country or if they're foreign. However, if an Indian or even an Egyptian grows up here, it's evident that they're not true locals. For Somalis, the resemblance is uncanny, and I believe this is due to genetic similarities.

No we are not from banu hashime definitely but we are from ancient Canaanite or lost tribe of the 12 Israel tribes mixed with indigenous East African.

Nothing special about Arabs, all of their countries are poor and/or under western domination.

Of course Somalis would be relayed to Arabs we both come from Afro Asiatic but we're also related to the Hausa people of Nigeria why don't you bring that up?
