- đ Ibn Battuta: Mongols and Mystics - Ibn Battuta had finished the hajj but decided that since he was already in the area... why not take a small trip to India? And since he was going to India, he might as well make some side trips along the way! We recount Battuta's travels along the east coast of Africa, the Mongol conquered lands off the Arabian peninsula and some of the stranger sights that he wrote about in his book!

Ibn Battuta was just playing open world RPG: Just one more side mission.
You mean the Greatest Procrastinator?
He downloaded all the DLCs.

"I think I'm finally done here. Time to finally start heading out to Ind- hey, it's time to do the Hajj again? MECCA AWAITS!"
"I'm not wandering around Skyrim aimlessly. I'm just doing an Ibn Battuta build!"
You want to speck into
Race: Redguard
Skill Focuses: Speech
Armor: Redguard outfit
Alliance: Imperial
Goal: Side Quest Completionist
I think I resonate a lot with that guy.
Every time I play an Open world game, I always wander off and do some other stuff before aiming for my main objective, only to get Side tracked again.
Now I finally know, that I play the Ibn Battuta way of gaming B)
@Devilman_ I used to be an adventurer like you then i took an arrow to the knee
I'm Jarl Walpole and I'd be Ballin'!
Are used to be a wonderer like you, than I took a snake and ate it.....
Oh and arrow to the knee....

when you procrastinate so much you see the entire world
I mean it's worth it at least
I too would like to observe attractive women from strange lands.
Yeah I hate that man
When you are more into the side quests than the main campaign.
Lol
Her: Come over
Battuta: Canât, I going to India.
Her: I have a Side Trip.
Battuta: Iâm on my way.
I think you may have spelt the second âbattutaâ wrong.
Soviet Marshmallow12 thx
Bin battuta means son of battuta in Arabic
But before that he takes another side trip
Netflix & Side Trip
It's really very interesting to see how religions and cultures syncretised throughout
the Islamic world through the eyes of a Muslim scholar.
We can pull the inner florida man at times
Wished we heard a little something about his trip to Ethiopia, though.
Morocco great country country đČđŠ
Man, sometimes I'm jealous of Ibn Battuta. What I wouldn't give to see the Swahili City States at the height of their power. Witnessing commerce and exquisite architecture before their collapse.
Heard the sultan of Kilwa gave him gold there again. No wonder he was expecting the Malians to be more generous.
I would've loved to see Mali
@@ArawnOfAnnwn I know, it's just that as a history enthusiast; I look at ruins of once great cities and monuments and wish I could see them in their prime and explore what they would have been like.
@@ArawnOfAnnwn Yeah but commerce today is boring, it's an industrialized thing with virtual money and countless gigantic ships carrying big boxes. In the past, commerce was an adventure where you would carry valuable items, rare silks, smelling spices, that kind of stuff. Well, slaves too, because nothing is perfect ^^'
@@ArawnOfAnnwn
Boring!
Petition to rename this episode:Ibn Battuta: Another Side Trip
Petition signed.
Agreed.
Signed

"Might as well have some fun along the way."
What I Heard: "Marry and divorce more wives. Because Ibn Battuta."
Ganurath
When he said âand make sure not to take the same pathâ. I heard â to avoid the wrath of the divorced wivesâ
@@pipo8561 Or don't visit kings you already got gifts from again.
The reason he did that was because pre marital sex is strictly forbidden, so if you wanted to get dirty, short term marriage was seen as a perfectly normal thing, especially for a perpetual traveller like inn batuta.
But first, a side trip.
I believe its the main reason he finds work and gets rich. To afford his wives Dowary. In Islam it's the husband who pays the wife the dowary and it has to be negotiated and agreed on by the wife or there's no marriage. When he divorces them, they keep the dowary as well as any other extra things he couldn't carry on his next trip. A win-win situation imo
Me imagining Ibn Battuta talking to himself.
"Now it's time for India"
"Visit Africa it's just around the corner"
"No I have to go to India to find a job in a court and get rich"
"Come on the ship is ready you know you want to try that place"
"Hmm ok just for a month and I'm going to india"
"Sure we will see about that * Smirk * "
Ever think that your way of executing criminals is much too lame? Has this medieval Anatolian urban startup got the solution for you!
How much does it cost! I have just the place for a new execution machine as my old ones just donât seem as fun anymore.
It does seem more humane than electric chairs or drug cocktails.
Not gonna lie. If I was gonna be executed; it'd how I'd want to go.
Solve your prisoner problem with this Anatolian ruler's simple method! Jailers hate him!
This execution should be called skydie
Skyrim: Muslim edition.
Have you seen those warriors from Hammerfell? They've got curved swords. CURVED. SWORDS.
@@cometmoon4485 Have you seen those warriors from Mecca? They eat snake heads. SNAKE. HEADS.
@@quirk6272 they are not from Mecca they are from elkhanate in Iraq
@@fluttee Ah,I mixed them up a bit sorry about that
I believe there is a Arabian looking race in that game I believe theyâre called red-something
Imagine they made an Open World RPG about this. Oh man they really need more historical based RPGs.
I believe the scope of the game would be a bit too much to implement.
It's like Assassin's Creed but there's no fast travel and you only get points for getting married and being judgy of local customs
Nice idea to teach history via rpg
This
đŻ agree
Honest to goodness bless Ahmad Ziad Turk, Joseph Blaim and Dominic Valenciana I see these names in every single goddamn EH video and I have never felt so grateful to see these three names.
The Holy Trinity of Extra History.
All three of them are also patrons for History Matters. Interesting...
May their lives always be blessed!
They each have really epic names. They sound like Civ leaders or something.
@Nehemia Nicholas the turk family is actually Arab from the gulf
I propose that we changes the Erasmus program name, for the Battuta program.
Because he seems much more fitting with the spirit of the matter.
Wait, 22 hours?

Woww
Ibn Battuta traveling the world in the middle ages and I can't even visit another country in the 21st century. WTF đ
@SilentwarH and also back then there's no such thing as immigration checkpoints for foreign non government personel. so you pretty much just go there without any identification and no one would give a shit lmao
SilentwarH still simple you say? Lol
You must read again another how f@cked is middle age
@@krewa578 islamic world was safer than anywhere else back then. Except maybe china.

There's bunch of bandits even in world Islam, you must prepare your own food water etc
@@krewa578 not as bad europe
I am a Christian and I am a fan of Ibn Batuta. How I wish I get a chance to thank him for all his work
Just imagine ibn Battuta as the Hangover movie. Not because of wine, but because of his drunkenness in curiousity.
Like the time you got lost in Egypt and left your army behind?
You again short emperor
@@kevinclass2010 lmfao

I remember learning about him in school. He seems to be one of the world's finest procrastinators.
He was what marco polo is portrayed to be
Get you that special someone who loves you the same way Ibn Battuta loves his side trips
Side chicks? Nah man Iâm all about that SIDE TRIPS
Most Skyrim players: "I need to get to High Hrothgar!" (proceeds to do 100 side quests)
Ibn Battuta: "Psht, amateurs...:
Hey, i still didn't complete the main quest, my level 80 character isn't powerful enough.
I remember that mountain! And I remember there being an asshole troll who one shots your ass and just wonât dieđ© and the Notch pickaxe at the very top of the mountain
time to go to high hrothgar.....
Me after following random NPC: hey Cyridil is just beyond that mountains range i wonder if imperial blade base still there.........
Me: time to climb the mountain by jump
Ibn: Alright lets go to India to get a Job!
Also Ibn: SIDE TRIPS!!! ROAD TRIPS!!! THE SCENIC ROUTE!!!
You know ibn just means son right
@@muhammadnaqvi7608 I know I just didnt want to put Battuta in the whole thing
"But first, a side trip!" What, is this guy an RPG protagonist?
brother got nothing to lose I guess.
All I can say is, one does not simply travel to India without getting sidetracked.
Next on EH: "It's time for ibn battuta part 3, but first, a side episode"
Moral of the story. Always take the side quests, fill your inventory and upgrade your skills before the boss fight.
đđ
Ibn Battuta: Wow, these anatolians are so nice!
Anatolians with a catapult: *YEET*
If I had a penny for every time ibn battuta went on a side trip...
Iâd be as rich as mansa musa
Mansa Mousa send ships to America
@@swift4311 true
Lol
He was trying to 100% the game bro
Unlocking every achievement
These are my favourite episodes, where the creators can go all out on the jokes and visual puns. The more serious ones are great, too, don't get me wrong, but these are definitely the most entertaining.
2:31 why the turks are drawn as ailens ? Tell me if you are going to say the truth.
âBut first, a side trip!â Should be on a T-shirt!đâ€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïž
Ibn Battuta, this man would do all the side quests of skyrim and then do the civil war. then play KC:d, do the sidequests and finally get to Runt. then go back to skyrim and redo all the sidequests. then finally finish the prophesy of the Dragonborn
That's what I did lol
He never saw a second dragon.
I think about this daily
Dude we can not let this man find out how to install moded quests
@@firebirdchild975 oh god. quickly, hide it all in Rome. He will never go there
"Omg lets go to india"
"Ikr its tots prettyyy."
"I cant wait!
But first,
*LEMME TAKE A SIDE TRIP*

I laughed at Ibn Battuta for like several seconds, before remembering that I once spent a month screwing around in GTA5 before doing the next storyline mission.
I admired this man so much .last year i went to pay my respect at his tomb in Tangier , Morocco .
That third haj reveal is fantastic, I laughed so hard. 6:10
that was hilarious, I really believe now he'll go to India, what a sharp maneuvre
How can you not love this guy. One day I hope to go on lots of trips to historic sites and places. There's going to be a lot of SIDE TRIPS!!!
I can't die! I still need to see a Netflix original series of Ibn Battuta's life.
I was gonna type a comment talking about how much I appreciate this series....
BUT FIRST, A SIDE TRIP!
Ibn Battuta does more side-quests than the main quest like heâs a Fallout 4 player
Ibn Battuta is the embodiment of risky curiosity. Curiosity never killed the Ibn.
When I was kid I found Ibn Battuta's stories in magazine are very interesting, I wished to be like him traveling the world and getting to listen to people, I would just listen and learn about others cultures, seeing how different people see the world from their own eyes I think this is like living a 100 years.
This series has brought you back to what's successful about this channel.
So many side-trips. I can hear a certain old uncle constantly going "one more thing" throughout this video XD
The Story of Ibn Battuta is what happens... when you dally on the way to Delhi.
The stories of travelers are so intriguing as you donât know what could be true and what is exaggerated
There are no exxegeration in ibn battuta story.
@@muazthunder You were there back then to confirm? How did you meet Ibn Battuta?
@@Game_Hero ofc everything is fake in this world.Only ur life is real
Ibn Battuta was clearly blessed and under the patronage of Saint Side Quest, who did not fail him. Great video as always!
ME:IM GOING TO INDIA
ALSO ME: ohhh something shiny
Battudaâs attempts of going to India are kind of meta of Extra Credits attempts to do series about India but the Patrons being distracted by other series instead.
Nobody:
Me getting carried away with side missions in red dead redemption 2
SQUIRREL!
"But first, a SIDE TRIP!" _I LOVE this guy!!_
This guy is amazing, imagine seeing the Arabic world at that time! I love travel nowadays, but if I had one wish it would be to be able to travel through time as well as through space.
Yeah, it would be awesome... just had a gadget of auto-teleportation out of trouble, just in case :p
This dude is gunna destroy the finally boss with all those side quest exp
The world today, with mass communication and easy travel, is so much less interesting and uniform then in the olden days. Back then societies were truly unique and genuinely diverse,. each with their own dress, food, architecture etc. Today we're all essentially the same, wearing the same clothes, eating the same McDonalds, same cookie cutter utilitarian style architecture. Nothing to write home about.
Hahah I can agree that we arenât as diverse as before but each culture and country is still unique there will be things that shock u. Travel the world and see for yourself. There is much to see
... How much have you actually traveled? This is simply not true. Which is good!
In the meantime in Christian Europe people were tied up and thrown into water to test whether they were a 'witch...' You know, much more civilized and enlightened...
is it me or everyone just laughing through the whole video and when he says SIDE TRIP i just die đ
My man really did the Haj 3 times, thatâs worth an achievement
4 times.
I like how he go back to Mecca to recharge even though its out of his way and from a Muslim perspective I understand why he does that very well. thanks for the amazing video

This is my kind of tourism. See the world with unlimited side trips!
I'm a Muslim. I have only heard the name of Ibn Battuta, and that he was an explorer. I will read more about him, inshaAllah, if only to verify whether this light-hearted depiction accurately portrays him. Anyway, this video was very fun to watch.
Same, I got his book from amazon so I could learn more about him.
Assalamualaikum brother, so did you get something new? I had the same question, as to whether this is fairly accurate or not?

Ibn Battuta: Yeah I'm going across the street to see my neighbor but first a......
SIDE TRIP 40 MILES SOUTH!
4:59 "Let's be the Swahili on the Swahili coast!" Said the Swahili on the Swahili coast.
fun fact: "Swahili" literally means "people of the coast". So what you said literally translates to "Let's be the people of the coast on the people of the coast coast."
The animation on these is on point ,so much character.
Ahhhhh!!! Can't wait for the next video!
If CZcams excisted back then he would make great traveling vlogs

There are many moroccans (women and men)like him who do make great traveling vlogs with millions of views!
He is already on youtube plus his big ass book. He recorded everything.

Can't wait for the next part.

Old muslim savants were Rpg's characters.. loool may allah reward them and have mercy for their souls
The writings pretty spot on for the times the observations and outlooks
This series has been a really pleasant surprise so far. Actually ordered a (slightly summarized) english version of 'the travels'. Very curious about the non-western perspective of africa for instance.
I swear if he keeps doing side missions he'll become more op than the Emperor of Delhi.
