- Did you know that Japan used to be so obsessed with Islam that even the Emperor declared that he was considering becoming Muslim?🕌🇯🇵
In this video, we delve into a largely overlooked period when Japan announced that they seriously considered converting to Islam as part of their geopolitical strategy.
Through the backdrop of the Meiji Restoration and events like the Russo-Japanese War, the video explores key figures such as Abdurashid Ibrahim and Ottoman Sultan Abdul Hamid II, who played pivotal roles in shaping Japan's unique, yet short-lived, relationship with Islam.
Unearth this intriguing chapter that challenges conventional narratives, revealing how Japan's rapid industrialization and global ambitions once aligned with the Muslim world.

World war 2 started in 1917 ? Can you please link your sources. I feel like theres alot of sensational news in this video. Where do you get all these facts from? I am muslim myself, but I am also a history and geography teacher.
The Japanese entered WW1 in 1917. I made a mistake in the script which led to me reading off the teleprompter as ww2 which then led to my editor showing ww2 in text.
For this story I mainly used academic articles on JSTOR to find the history of Japan's Pan-Asianism ideas/the black dragon society and their use of Islam as a tool for this project.
I had to search for sources on both the Russian, Turkish, Japanese and English Wikipedia pages to find biographies for Abdurashid Ibrahim and some of the Japanese characters involved.
I also found some small details on the pages of Japanese Islamic Organizations including details on the history of the Tokyo and Kobe Masjids (which were originally funded by the Japanese government and their Islamic promotion projects), so that helped confirm some details.
As you can imagine, listing all of these sources would take a lot of time and the number of sources would be immense because of the number of details involved. (sometimes I use a source for just a single sentence and at one point I had 30+ pages open with various sources and images)
But one thing I've been INTENTIONALLY consistent with is giving specific names of people, events, organizations and dates involved so that if anyone really wants to they can do a few quick Google searches and piece the story together on their own.
Maybe going forward, I could add a section to the description for "further reading" to give some books or article suggestions. 🤔
Thank you for your reply Omar. I appreciate your answer and dedication.
Yes that would a great addition to your channel, with some references in the credits or so.
Good job tho, I do appreciate your videos and your channel🤲@@OmaroftheOrient
Why did Japan conquer Malaysia and Indonesia and then kill, rape and torture hundreds of thousands of Muslims in these two countries That means they were against Myslims.
@@OmaroftheOrientWikipedia pages are not a source for anything (i am telling that because Wikipedia is a corrupt encyclopedia invaded by persian ultranationalists
Warn the hypocrites that torturous punishment awaits them. The hypocrites take unbelievers as friends rather than believers. Do they look for honor at their hands? Truly all honor belongs to Allah. Quran 4:138-139
I remember a few years ago finding out the second Japanese convert to Islam was a nobleman and a lineage holding ritual tea master as well as a descendant of miyamoto musashi the most famous Japanese swordsman/samurai
I have this man on my list of videos to make insha Allah
The were even Shinto priests who converted. His lineage, tea master lineage holder basically means he’s the most Japanese Japanese person one can find

Coincidentally, that explains those aesthetics that were found in the Ultraman franchise. That series covers all Abrahamic aesthetics (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam).
I tried looking into islamic history in Japan however there were extremely limited details on this topic, thank you for producing such a high quality and well explained video.
There are some other topics to cover for Japan's history with Islam. I've got another 2 videos I'm researching insha Allah
@@sepulvedablvd7846 The people wearing shoes of hair were Mongols. The other group was possibly the Khazars.

@@Monsoon-01some believe that those Turkic-Mongol tribes and their progeny are the Gog & Magog.
@@mustafagolubic2235 Yes, they say Turks and Mongols are the cousins of Gog and Magog. And more relevant to this video, some say the Japanese and Koreans might also be distantly related to Turks, as part of one ethnolinguistic Altaic family.

The first reference to Islam in Japan goes all the way back to the Tokugawa-era, when 'Arai Hakuseki' attempted the first scholarly, neutral appraisal of Islam based on the words of an Italian priest. Although Japan's romance with Islam manifested first in the Meiji-era, when the Japanese novelist 'Tokai Sanshi' published his extremely then-popular novel 'Strange Encounters with Beautiful Women' (Kajin no Kigū) in 1885 which painted a roseate and romantic spectacle of Islamic anti-Imperialism which in turn generated sympathy among the Japanese intellectuals for Islam and Muslims living under colonial occupation.
The most Pro-Islam propaganda started pouring out of Japan in fact during the war where Many Japanese took pride in the fact that a great number of their population was Muslim from Indonesia to China which resulted in the establishment of Dai-Nippon Kaikyo Kyokai (The Greater Japan Muslim League, known as
DNKK) in 1938 under the auspices of the Japanese former PM and general 'Senjūrō Hayashi' which also earned the support of other Japanese military authorities
and the Japanese government, as a comprehensive research institute for Islamic
studies. It was was dissolved on Oct. 15, 1945 after the end of the Pacific War
on Aug. 15, 1945, and was succeeded by the Nihon Isuramu Kyokai (the Association
for Islamic Studies in Japan, hereafter NIK). 'Waseda University' became an enormous hub of Islamic propaganda where Muslim students all across from Egypt to Philippines came to study.
The DNKK commenced publishing their periodical, the Kaikyo Sekai (World of
Islam), in April 1939. One senior researcher and five other researchers contributed to
analysis and Commentry on Islam and publishing this periodical, while other members participated
in conducting research and surveys by region with Shumei Okawa being the architect of the plan. Naito Chishu, Yagi
Kametaro, and Murakami Masatsugu participated in the research activities.
The Society’s activities in Inner Mongolia became the blueprint for their activities in Muslim communities. In May 1938, at the request of the army, Zenrin Kyōkai took the Muslim Research Institute (Kaikyō Kenkyūjo) led by Ōkubo Kōji under its wing. The institute published Muslim-related books and journals, including the monthly journal Kaikyōken (The Muslim Zone). Monthly seminars and fieldwork reports were held. The new Muslim Research Institute stood under the Society’s central office in Tokyo and had a separate budget of 30,000 Yen. Within a couple of years, Zenrin Kyōkai had set up Muslim health clinics (kaimin shinryōjo) in Baotou,38 Salaqi and Houhe. In addition, a Medical Training Centre for Muslims and a Muslim school (Kaikyō
Juku) were also set up in Houhe and medical checks and treatment were of-
fered free of charge. As with the Mongol population, mobile clinical checks were also conducted. In 1939, a section for Muslim students was added to the Tokyo office to take care of Muslim students who studied in Japan. In 1940, a Muslim Girls School (Zenrin kaimin jojuku) was founded in Kalgan to train Japanese language teachers for Muslim schools. Interestingly the budget for these activities amongst the Muslim population was not included in the
Society’s annual budget in Inner Mongolia or the “Overseas Central Office” in Kalgan. It seems that these costs were covered from a separate source.
In fact the first scholars and academic school of Japan’s specialists on Islam, Central Asia and the Middle East commenced their careers in an intense atmosphere of Islam policy discussions that happened to be generally well integrated into this new anti-Imperialist/West,
Asian internationalism. Many of these scholars luckily continued to be eminent experts in Islamic studies in the post-war period despite being suspected of collaboration such as Naitō Chishū (1886-1950), the foremost authority on Ottoman Turkish history in pre-war Japan; Ōkubō Kōji (1888-1950), a Turkish-language
expert specializing in Central Asian studies; Kobayashi Hajime (1904-63), the first Japanese specialist in Arabic studies, who studied in the famous A1-Azhar University of Egypt with
the support of Ōkawa; and Izutsu Toshihiko (1914-93), Japan’s foremost expert on Islamic philosophy, who later continued to teach at Keio University in Japan and McGill University
in Canada. These men used their knowledge during the war years as language instructors,
or preparing military reports, manuals and propaganda materials, as well as working at such
scholarly institutions as Kaikyō kenkyūjō, established under the auspices of the Foreign MinistrY
One of the most amusing occurrences was the decision by the Japanese Islamic Society when during the last year of Abdürreşid İbrahim's life,
during May 1944 the Society decided to hold a ceremony in honour of the Tatar revolutionary or should I say, a counter-revolutionary. This blissful moments of his life was to be utilized in a propaganda film entitled “Muslims in Tokyo” aimed at the Muslim populations in the South-East Asia under Nipponese occupation. According to the director of this film, Aoyama Kōji, shooting on the film caused old Ibrahim’s exhaustion and finally his death in mid-summer.

Very interesting! Thanks for sharing.

Its beautiful that the mosque is still in great condition 👍
Was only built in the past couple hundred years and im pretty sure they renovate as time goes. Or maybe the materials good enough to not renovate.
Abdulhamid was not hostile to Japan. To the contrary, Japanese victory against Russia was celebrated with a national holiday throughout the land, and he sent a military ship to congratulate them. He was also the main supporter of Muslim societies in Russia. There
was a Japanese ambassador who firmly believed in the friendship between the two. Ottomans was the only power which challenged
European powers, so it was an interesting case for them.

It's quite sad to see how japan had forgotten much of their islamic learning
But thankfully alhamdulilah islam is the fastest growing religion in Japan in the 21st century
It's doubled in the last decade and it may very well be one of the last faiths to still exist in Japan since Japan is declining in population and faith
Most religious establishments will decline or be replaced

Amazing to see how dynamic and well travelled some of those Japanese reverts were, as most strong believers are. 😃 I was planning to go to Japan this year, but that didn't work out, although the country is still top of my list of countries to visit. Insha'Allah I will pray in that Tokyo mosque one day. I honestly can't imagine anything more exotic in this world.

Muhammad used to trade in slaves and he made slavery legal in Islam. Read Islamic history and you will learn that he looted the caravan of non muslims. The money , glod, jewels, goods , weapons, animals ,men, women and children captured were known as Maal e Ghanimat. He kept 20% share for himself and distributed 80% among his muslim followers accirding to their rank. He also allowed muslim men to keep 4 wives and also have srx with their female slaves. Muslim women were nit allowed to have sex with their male slaves. He promised his musim folliwers 72 virgins in jannat. Hence he always had a very large number of myslim folliwers ready and willing to follow him. He conquered Makkah and destroyed 300 idols inside the Kaaba and converted it into a mosque for Muslims. The he conquered all of Arabia and those who did not covert to Islam were called dhimmus and made to pay a very heavy jazia tax. After him the all of the Kaliphas followed the same rules and conquered Syria,Iraq, Iran, Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco etcetera. Over time dhimmis coverted to Isl to avoid hazia tax and to become first class citizens. Even todsy non muslims are not trested as equals in Islamic nations. Slavery was abolished by Saudi Arabia in 1962 and jazia has also been abolished.
I find this stomach flipingly hilarious. Do the Japanese people know that Islam is on some way incompatible with Islam. Art and sculpture is an integrated part of Japanese. Not much have to be said about Japans anime and manga culture. Where in Islam depicting any living thing ( art ) is a sin and punishable to hell
Sahih bukhari 7:72:834
Narrated By Muslim : We were with Masruq at the house of Yasar bin Numair. Masruq saw pictures on his terrace and said, “I heard ‘Abdullah saying that he heard the Prophet saying, “The people who will receive the severest punishment from Allah will be the picture makers.'”
This hadith applies to everyone. So basically all Japaneses are destined to hell. And yet ...... . Like i said stomach flippingly hilarious

You're not special in liking the Japanese. Through their cinema, literature, video games, music, manga and anime they rival the United States as the most powerful cultural force in the world. Billions of people around the world admire the Japanese.

This was an amazing watch. Thank you for your research and effort. I'm a Muslim as well as a martial arts teacher. I teach multiple martial arts but I keep my dojo mainly Japanese. I find this story incredibly fascinating.
If this were true then why did the Japanese army conquer Malaysia and Indonesia during the second world war and tortured, raped and killed hundreds of thousands of Muslim men, women and children. Please also read the history of Islam and Muhammad written by your own muslim historians.

A Japanese emperor cannot convert to a different religion, even if the wanted too. The emperor is the head and the divine representation of Shintoism, and direct descendant of the sun goddess Amaterasu. A Japanese emperor converting to a religion other than Shintoism, is similar to the prophet of Islam converting to a different religion....

My dad was a history teacher.
He told me that in the early middle ages England nearly converted to Islam.
King Richard the lionheart was taken hostage my his Muslim adversary during one crusade and this put his brother King john on the thrown.
John wanted to do a deal with Richard's captors to KERP him (and possibly dispose of him) and John would pay a large sum AND convert England to Islam.
I'd love to know if this is true.
We could have been the first Muslim nation in Europe.
I will try to research this insha Allah
If you what you have claimed is true. It is certainly a blessing in disguise. If that had occurs, we would still be stuck riding domestic animals as a mean of transport.
The reality is OIC (Organisation of Islamic Cooperation) countries only account for 1.6 per cent of patents and 6 per cent of scientific publications, despite holding nearly a quarter of the world’s population.
And, out of 1.6-1.8 billion Muslims, strangely there are only 3 Nobel laureates (2 Americans, 1 Pakistan) in Science. Ironically the most important one, the Nobel laurates from Pakistan was even declared a non-Muslim and has since left his state.
And, many Muslims love to "claim" that the Quran contain many "scientific facts" that were discovered by scientists centuries later?
So. do you see the problem here?
Muslims do not even make up 1% Nobel laureates in the scientific field.
On the other hand,
In an estimate by Baruch Shalev, between 1901 and 2000, about 65.3% of Physics Nobel prize winners were either Christians or had a Christian background. (4.7% for atheist, agnostics, and freethinkers)

Dr Arno Penzias(Nobel Prize-winning astrophysicist): “I invite you to examine the snapshot provided by half a century’s worth of astrophysical data and see what the pieces of the universe actually look like…In order to achieve consistency with our observations we must…assume not only creation of matter and energy out of nothing, but creation of space and time as well. The best data we have are exactly what I would have predicted had I nothing to go on but the five books of Moses, the Psalms, the Bible as a whole.”
Allan Rex Sandage (famous astronomer, dubbed the 'Grand Old Man of Cosmology' by the New York Times, and a former atheist): “It was my science that drove me to the conclusion that the world is much more complicated than can be explained by science. It was only through the supernatural that I could understand the mystery of existence.”
To seek God with all our heart is fundamental to God’s revealing himself to us (Jer. 29:13).
As the philosopher & famous pascal Blaise Pascal put it:
Willing to appear openly to those who seek Him with all their heart, and to be hidden from those who flee from Him with all their heart, He so regulates the knowledge of Himself that He has given signs of Himself, visible to those who seek Him, and not to those who seek Him not. There is enough light for those who only desire to see, and enough obscurity for those who have a contrary disposition.
And btw, the so called "Islamic Golden Age" nothing more a fraud.
It was not Arabs, but the Persians, Indians, Greeks and Levantines-many of them non-Muslims-who rejuvenated and nurtured inte-llectual and material endeavors in the Muslim world. The translation of foreign manuscripts, which was central for the medieval Islamic worlds excellence, was already occurring in pre-Islamic Persia. And in the Muslim period, the translations-patronized by the Godless Umayyads and wayward persianized Abbasids-were done entirely by non-Muslim scholars, mostly Christians; none of the translators were Muslims. Given the prohibition of the Islamic theology to many of these endeavors, little credit should go to Islam for the medieval Muslim worlds excellence; it must go to the pre-Islamic civilizations that Islam had vio-lently appropriated and internalized"

The reality is the Islamic world "inherited" knowledge of the land they conquered via violent mean which they like to claim as their own. And, it can be shown that the so called "Islamic Golden Age" lasted as soon as their conquest end in approx 14th century. If they are any merits to the Islamic scriptures, I would have expected a better showing from the Islamic world today.
A different King John (this one signed the Magna Carta) approached the Almohads with the same deal, hoping for assistance against the French. Sadly, the Almohads were heretics who believed Ibn Tumart was the Mahdi. Nothing came out of it.
I found it! czcams.com/users/results?search_query=that+time+england+almost+converted+to+islam
@@tobyc8668 Though I am a Catholic myself, I do think Europe will eventually convert to Islam, and I think it will be a good thing. Islamic values are basically the same values that 95% of the population hold; unbound sexuality, out of control Capitalism, scientific research and immigration, regardless of how it affect communities, these are things almost no one agrees with and I think it will only be Islam that will empower ordinary people to get back to human centric ways iykwim.

As a Muslim and big fan of history especially nineteen century, I was searching for Islamic links to Japan by how did they got to know about Muslims - but on the Internet it was having less resources in correct manner 😔😓 .
By the way, with the help of video which was very informative and explained in such fine manner in which I was easy able to understand it 😍🥰.
And in near future, I was thinking to visit Nihon but I was very discouraged by religion matter its not like I hold ill feelings towards them but then I got to know through some news videos that there was increase in Muslim population in Korea, Nihon.
Wow I never knew that!
