The whole "Lost Tribe of Israel" thing is basically a legend.

We have another legend that states that we are half Arab, being related to Khalid bin Walid

maternally, and that our original ancestor was a Sahabi named Qays Abdur Rashid who came from Afghanistan to Hijaz and became a Muslim.

Allah

knows best how true these stories are, but it would be a great injustice to attack a person's lineage on the basis of what can at best be called a rumor.

Not only that, but foreigners are occasionally integrated into many cultures, and very few are as "pure" as they like to claim.
