It's a complex history with changes in dynamics and relations between different communities. I come from a Jewish family that lived in Iraq. My parents and many relatives often shared a beautiful stories about our society, their involvement in public life, and how they interacted with Muslims back then. The establishment of the State of Israel indeed had significant implications for Jewish communities across the Middle East, including in Iraq.
Our family is from Iraq as well. Our grandfather was chased out of the Ottoman bank, where he worked by a Nazi sympathizer, lucky he was off that day but had he not left at that point so many in his family would have died in the Farhud. During the siege of Jerusalem he lost 2 cousins trying to deliver humanitarian aid to the Jewish quarter who were being starved out by the Arabs who now call themselves ‘P’
The Jiminy laws they lived in throughout the Ottoman Empire were in Middle East analog to Jim Crow laws in the United States, so your house had to be shorter than the Muslim houses. You could only ride a donkey you were not allowed to ride on a horse you could only wear certain clothes your clothes could only be made with inferior fabrics , you had to pay for your existence to say there is no violence is like saying that slaves in America did not revolt. It’s not because this was a great arrangement for them. It was because they were in constant fear of their lives.

At minute 14:00 the scholarship says when Christians are on top the Jews suffer. When the Muslims are on top the Jews suffer. Now from the river to the sea Jews are on top, the Muslims suffer. The scholar doesn't mention that! Morever now is 2024 and not the medieval period. So no comparison.
Among the most prominent Jews to serve as viziers in the Muslim taifas were the ibn Nagrelas (or Naghrela). Samuel Ha-Nagid ibn Nagrela (993-1056) served Granada's King Habbus al-Muzaffar and his son Badis for thirty years. In addition to his roles as policy director and military leader (as one of only two Jews to command Muslim armies, the other being his son Joseph), Samuel ibn Nagrela was an accomplished poet, and his introduction to the Talmud is standard today.
I would like to know: did he (Samuel) write poems in the Arabic language?

Maybe talk about how the Nazi regime asked the Moroccan King back then to hand over his 300,000 Jews, he refused. As a Muslims ruler he couldn’t, he said to them I am King of all Moroccan, Muslims and Jews. Something Christian countries had no problem doing. That is why until this day there js a huge Moroccan Jewish community in the world.
Morocco treated Jews like 2nd class citizens because under Islamic Shariah Law, a non muslim can never be treated on equal terms with a muslim. Between 1940 and November of 1942 when the Americans landed in Morocco, Moroccan Jews also had to abide by discriminatory laws: Jewish children were expelled from Moroccan schools, Jews were fired from Moroccan government jobs, and there were quotas on how many Moroccan Jews could attend universities or work as doctors, lawyers and pharmacists.

How do you explain both kings Hassan 2nd and Mohammed 6 Senior Advisor being Jewish (André Azoulay)?? And what do you even know about Morocco?
DID NOT THE JEWRY OF SPAIN SEEKED REFUGE IN MOROCCO AFTER THE INQUISITION???? AS A KID I PLAYED FOOTBALL NEXT TO A JEWISH CEMETERY AND WE MADE SURE OUR BALL DOES NOT GET INTO IT…PROUD OF THAT…SHALOM
A believer is not stung from the same whole twice. The one who tolerates you will be charged with ridda. And no Muslim cares about your history.
They did. The Jews that left Spain sought refuge in Morocco the Ottoman empire parts of the Netherlands a super small number went to southern Ireland some went to Greece and some went to Italy. The Ottomans took in the largest number. At first the Moroccans were quite harsh towards the Jewish refugees but eventually that harshness got toned down quite a bit.
yes....but they still lived as dhimmi and had to pay protection taxes
Massacre of Fez (AD 1033), killed 6000 Jews.
I don’t think the Jews lived safely in Morocco at all. Have you heard about the 1033 Fez massacre ?
Why do you not talk about Umayyad Spain under the Arabs before the Al Mohads? Yes there was discrimination under Moslem rule but it was not the Moslems who forced the Sephardim completely our of Iberia. Isabel & Fedinand ethnically cleansed Iberia of Moslems & Jews.
Ethnically cleansed?? lol Jews who converted where allowed to stay. Spain has never had a ethnonationalist identity. It had always put God above everything else.
@alejandroalonso5386 It had a fascist-nationalist identity under Franco, Alejandro. I visited Spain last year & I was shocked to read the names of the priests murdered by his soldiers & sympathisers recorded on the walls of the Cordova mosque/cathedral. Forcing people to convert or leave is part of ethnic cleansing. I respect Spain because it acknowledges its history. Spain has offered citizenship to the descendants of the Sephardic community it forced to convert.
@@efstratiosfilis2290 Spain was not fascist it was traditionalist. Franco sent food to the Vatican during WW2 to feed the Jews that the pope saved. Also, the priest were killed by the republican side ( anarchist, communist, socialist and, republicans. As for the Jewish expulsion during the 1400 I can’t speak of. Since I haven’t done too much research on that topic. Still doesn’t equate to ethnic cleansing though
@@alejandroalonso5386 Would Hitler have trialed out his new bomber aeroplanes in the slaughter of Gernika if Franco was not of his party? Like all Fascist nationalists, Franco spent years trying to wipe out the Basque identity & language. Peron & Franco then gave refuge to Dr. Ante Pavelic the butcher of Bosnia. Pavelic is buried in Madrid.
Because everybody knows about it.
Kind of begs the question why so many Sephardic Jews moved to the Ottoman empire as a consequence of being forced out of Spain? Maybe it was relatively easy and there weren't many other alternatives? Maybe it was because of strong social and economic ties with other Mediterranean Jewish communities?
But whilst life under the Ottomans was far from ideal, these communities in modern day Egypt, Iraq, Morocco, etc were quite prosperous. It was Israel's involvement in the Suez invasion of 1956 that caused them to be kicked out. At a time when Israel was in need of more colonists.
Egypt started the Suez Crisis which also involved USA, Britain , France.
Many moved to the Holy Roman Empire particularly in the lowlands, Britain, or Poland after the fall. So your point is kinda stupid, they had to go somewhere.
They probably considered having to pay double the taxation as just a business expense in Muslim countries but eventually they were killed or ran away after animosity started when Israel was established. Compared to previously they're very few Jews left in the Arab world.
@@richardvass1462 no they considered it what it was....Jew Hate and discrimination.
@@pamelakoretsky9909 change the first word in my comment to Jews. Then you'll understand that im saying that this is why jews left other places to live in Muslim countries. At that time it was the lesser of two evils.

there have been pogroms in Persia / Iran for centuries. there were massive conversions also -- especially in Masshad. The places were Muslims and Jews got along were further east and north along the silk road - like Samarkand. And even that ended. So, that also means that many people in Iran today are genetically Jewish.

Bullcrap!
The Jews of Sicily under the Normans were Arab speakers. Were the Jews of Spain similarly just Arab speakers in this period?
No , El Sefardi sige vivo , a Dios gracias

Rambam spoke arabic, spanish and french if I remember correct....hebrew was for torah studies and fields of religion
Jews of Spain spoke Ladino, Jews of the German and Poland Ukrainian Russia region spoke Yiddish Jews in the middle East spoke Hebrew Arabic my in-laws still speak this
Jews have always been polyglots speaking their own language and the language of the country they find themselves in. Or a mix....Yiddish is an example.
I was listening to him intently because I am student of history. I respect his perspective on the Iberian peninsula. But, as soon as he started talking about the Iraqi jews, I lost all respect for him. As a historian, he should note that the upheaval for the Jewish community in Iraq was instigated by Israeli agents to force immigration of the Jews to the nation state of israel. This is a matter of history. Feel free to do some independent research. Read Avi Shlaim. As a Iraqi jew, born in Iraq and a historian, I would think that Avi has a better sense of what happened to his community than this esteemed colleague of ours. It is sad that a historian would change history to fit his narrative. No respect for this guy anymore.
It was not only Iraq. Egypt, Iran and everywhere else that had a Jewsish minority in a Muslim country was a target of mos-sad. This historian is clearly an agent for them to try and falsely rewrite history
So before 1948, The Jews and Arabs were getting along well?Is there a way we can discuss more about that?
Avi Shlaim is a good resource on this history regarding the Iraqi Jews and what happened to them at the hands of the Israelis.
You embarrass yourself. While Schlaim peddles utter nonsense about 1950-51 but this has nothing to do with the Farhud which was in 1941 which is what Woolf was referring to. Some 200 Jews were murdered, homes looted and women were raped as their neighbors and police looked on. As a "student of history" you're a decade off.
Thank you! This guy left big holes in his 'history' and frankly is just spewing Zionist propaganda. Non jews in israel are living under apartheid and ethnic cleansing and this guy is talking about second class status of Medieval Spain. The irony
So sad different religions cannot live side by side ! So sad !!😞
That dude is twisting everything! Just go and read Quran! There is no such is as forcing in Islam!!! He keeps saying they were forced to Convert. Key word use "Forced"!!!

The Star of David, Crucifix & The Crescent, Are Found In Hinduism.
Vedas [Hindu Bible] Mentions Adam, Abraham, Moses, Noah & Muhammad, Within Judaism, Christianity, Islam and Hinduism.
Adam Was Swayambhu Manu (4000BC),
Cain Was Indra (3200BC),
Noah Was Vaivaswat Manu (3000BC),
Abraham Was Rama (2100BC)
Moses Was Krishna (1500BC),
Mahamada Was Muhammad.
Adam, Abraham, Moses & Jesus Went To The Indus Valley.
Hinduism Vedas = Monotheism
Guru Books = Trinity & Polytheism.
Hinduism Was The Largest Monotheistic Religion In Ancient Times, But When They Added The Trinity And Polytheism, The Religion Declined. After Hinduism Came Zoroastrianism Which Also Had The Same Corruption, Then Came Buddhism, Rinse & Repeat Also Happened.
Indian Hindu's Also Put A Red Dot, On Their Heads, Symbolising A Connection To The Kaaba, All Lost Knowledge, From Time.
Minus The Trinity Which Was Added And Numerous Deities, Original Hinduism, Zoroastrianism, Buddhism & Christianity Were All Totally Monotheistic. Belief In The Unseen God Of All Creation, With No Image & No Form.
MUHAMMAD (PBUH) IN BUDDHIST SCRIPTURES [Dr. Zakir Naik]
Buddhism Started In The Sixth Century BCE.
Buddha prophesised the advent of a Maitreya:
Almost all Buddhist books contain this prophecy.
It is in Chakkavatti Sinhnad Suttanta D. III, 76:
"There will arise in the world a Buddha named Maitreya (the benevolent one) a holy one, a supreme one, an enlightened one, endowed with wisdom in conduct, auspicious, knowing the universe:
But Modern Buddhists Believe In The Trinity, But With No God, Whilst Hindu's, Zoroastrians, Christians All Have Adopted The Trinity, From The Egyptians, Sumerians, Greeks & Romans.
Buddha Was A Messenger Of God, He Even Claimed That, But Told His People Not To Create A Idol Of Him.
As Soon As He Died, They First Created A Aryan Idol Of Them, Then Ended With A Oriental Buddha, Going Against His Message & God's.
Canon States:
There Is Only One God,
Whom Created Good & Evil.
The Holy Kaaba was recorded by the Greek historian Diodorus Siculus before Christ Era.
In John (4:21-24) Jesus Christ also told that woman that neither at Jerusalem nor in its mountain God will be worshipped, why?
Because God is Spiri*t, therefore, the *true worshippers would worship HIM as spirit & not as God Incarnate in human form.
The Kaaba, a black cubical building at the center of the Grand Mosque of Mecca; it is the most sacred site in Islam.

who have set their hearts on pilgrimage [Hajj].
As they pass through the Valley of Baca [Now Mecca],
they make it a place of springs;
the autumn rains also cover it with pools.
They go from strength to strength,
till each appears before God..
Quran [Last Testament]:
95. Say: "(God) speaketh the Truth: follow the religion of Abraham, the same in faith; he was not of the Pagans."
96. The first House (of worship) appointed for men was that at Bakka [Now Mecca]: Full of blessing and of guidance for all kinds of beings:
97. In it are Signs Manifest; (for example), the Station of Abraham; whoever enters it attains security; Pilgrimage thereto is a duty men owe to God,- those who can afford the journey; but if any deny faith, God stands not in need of any of His creatures.
The Word Tefillin Derives From Tawaf, Circumambulation Around The Kaaba.

My Jewish ancestors in Yemen were persecuted incessantly including expulsions, massacres, forced conversions, Jim Crow like segregations (also applied to Black Yemenis) and exploitation forced periodic slave labor (also in parallel with similar treatment of Black Yemenis.
Hmm.. would you like to elaborate more on this?
@@theemirofjaffa2266 In what way?
I do not read in the New Testament anywhere where it tells me that as a Christian I am to be 'on top'. No where is there direction that I am to be the cream of the crop but I am to show love and service to all humankind
History is gonna have to disagree with you lol
People who say “but Jews lived peacefully amongst the Muslims before they left”- it’s because of European colonialism- it protected Jewish people’s rights and freedom. The Islamists in the region hated this situation. Jews suffered extreme apartheid regime in North Africa, massacres and slavery under Islamic rule. Read the book “1000 years of exile in the Maghreb”.
My husband was born in Aden when it was under British control. By 1967 when the British left all the Jews had left too. British governance gave Jews citizenship something never allowed under Muslim rule. Those Jews in Aden & neighbouring Yemen had been there ‘forever’, thousands of years before Islam came into being.
Correction: Pre-Islamic Spain was a mixture of Roman and Visigothic cultures. since the area was conquered by the Visigoths. I am glad he admitted to the treachery of the Jews - against Christians - after the Islamic conquest. It's too bad he chose to omit that Christians were also persecuted - during the Islamic rule of Spain. He should have also mentioned Jewish persecution of Christians in Yemen, under Dhu Nuwas.
More corrections: Hispania was not conquered by the visigoths, they came for the protection of this part of the Roman Empire against other invaders. They were about 5/7% of the population They accepted the superiority of the hispanic latin culture and, later, christianity. Influence of germanic culture does not mean culture mixing.
"They came for the protection" of the people of Hispania? That's false. They were warlike people, like many of the other Germanic tribes (Normans, Franks, Vandals, Saxons, etc.). Did they help save European civilization? Yes. The Roman Empire was in freefall, and Germanic tribes filled the power vacuum. "Influence of germanic culture does not mean culture mixing." This is a self-refuting statement. The influence of one culture on another to the point that language, agriculture, aquaculture, building and metallurgy techniques, cultural institutions and clothing are affected IS mixing.
Jews never had power in Yemen. Also, Yemeni Jews are ethnic Yemeni Arab that adopted Judaism late in their history. You’re wrong twice. Your also talk about Jews “persecuting” Christians: FALSE 😂 Jews never persecuted anyone because it is a non proselytizing religion. Go back to growing your little mustache and preparing to invade Poland.
Mind you that muhammad started killing thousands of jews when he cam to power. They tried to pit him against the christians. But that backfired against them.
Jesus said forgive the on the cross.
Also, Jews started persecuting christians from the very beginning. Take Paul for example.
Great quick lecture about the basic intolerance of muslim religious rules. A further and more detailed story is given by Simon Sebag Montefiore in his book: Jerusalem, a biography. Thanks for sharing!!
For those believing in land promised to God’s people:
This is from Dr Naomi Wolf
Dated July 25, 2014
Okay, so I was challenged below. “Read the Bible! God gave the land of Israel to the Jewish people.” So… I may get crucified for this but I have started to say it -most recently (terrified, trembling) to warm welcome in a synagogue in LA: Actually if you could read Genesis Exodus and Deuteronomy in Hebrew - as I do - you will see that God did not “give” Israel to the Jews/Israelites. We as Jews are raised with the creed that “God gave us the land of Israel” in Genesis - and that ethnically “we are the chosen people.” But actually - and I could not believe my eyes when I saw this, I checked my reading with major scholars and they confirmed it - actually God’s “covenant” in Genesis Exodus and Deuteronomy with the Jewish people is NOT ABOUT AN ETHNICITY AND NOT ABOUT A CONTRACT. IT IS ABOUT A WAY OF BEHAVING.
Again and again in the “covenant” language He never says “I will give you, ethnic Israelites, the land of Israel.” Rather He says something far more radical - far more subversive - far more Godlike in my view. He says: IF you visit those imprisoned…act mercifully to the widow and the orphan… welcome the stranger in your midst…tend the sick…do justice and love mercy…and perform various other tasks…THEN YOU WILL BE MY PEOPLE AND THIS LAND WILL BE YOUR LAND. So “my people” is not ethnic - it is transactional. We are God’s people not by birth but by a way of behaving, that is ethical, kind and just. And we stop being “God’s people“ when we are not ethical, kind and just. And ANYONE who is ethical, kind and just is, according to God in Genesis, “God’s people.” And the “contract” to “give” us Israel is conditional - we can live in God’s land if we are “God’s people” in this way - just, merciful and compassionate. AND - it never ever says, it is ONLY your land. Even when all passages spell out geographical “boundaries” as if God does such a thing, it never says this is exclusively your land. It never says I will give this land JUST to you. Remember these were homeless nomads who had left slavery in Egypt and were wandering around in the desert; at most these passages say, settle here, but they do not say, settle here exclusively. Indeed again and again it talks about welcoming “zarim” - translated as “strangers” but can also be translated as “people/tribes who are not you” - in your midst. Blew my mind, hope it blows yours.
The so called “Golden Age of Spain “ was an invention of Heinrich Graets and his cronies, they were drunk on the possibilities of emancipation of the Jews in the 19th century. To draw parallels from history they imagined a perfect coexistence of Jews in Muslim dominated Spain as a clear precedent . If it happened in Muslim Spain that golden era can be replicated in Europe.
But as it turns out it wasn’t that golden after all. True Shmuel Hanagid replanted the Yeshiva from Babylonia to Spain. Chisdai ibn Shaprut used his office to communicate with the converted kingdom of the Kazars . But in 1066 the Jews were pogromed at , the Jews of Granada sent in exile. Shmuel Hanagid’s son among the victims and his family seeking refuge in Córdoba.
Jews have been pogromed since the Egyptians, Greeks, Romans, muslims, Russians, polish ….
They had problems with everyone, when you get kicked out of 109 places at some point you have to reflect on your behaviour
@@mikhailbabushkinum Jews were a minority among the nations and easily scapegoated . The framework was laid out for them in the Greek testament .
“For you are the children of your father the devil..”
“His blood is on us and on our children!” and many more of this vomit. Oh and don’t forget the church fathers who were obsessed with the jews writing works that would put mein kampf to shame .
One that reads the Greek testament wonders , how on earth did the Jews survive period. Miracle of miracle they weren’t pogromed to extinction. The majnoun prophet of Arabia didn’t even have to write it . The mahamoudeans just have to emulate him .
But the promise of the living God keeps us standing.
“Yet, even then, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will not reject them or spurn them so as to destroy them, annulling My covenant with them: for I יהוה am their God.”
(Leviticus 36:44)
why lie ?
read the accounts of musa ibn maimun ( aka maimonides ,an sephardic jew who is knows to be a very pious jew, he was the 2nd moses after moses), he benefited alot from islamic scholars in spain.
@@mohamedhafizh9201 Maimonides is the perfect example for the point I’m making. Still in his teens already an accomplished scholar,Maimonides and his family are forced to move from al Andalusia because of the Almohads ( aka Isis ; aka Hizbollah) emulating of the prophet . With chants of ‘Khaybar Khaybar ya yahud ‘ they forced the Jews to either convert or move . Musa Ibn Maimonides moves to Fez where his teacher is tortured and killed for refusing to accept Islam. He then travels to the land of Israel, then under Crusader rule. Not a very safe environment there for jews especially famous ones, he sojourns to Fustat Cairo. There he becomes the private physician of Salach Adin.
@@mikhailbabushkinum no when you kicked everywhere and you still survive, you are a champ
Fascinating how this scholar of Jewish history spends 20 minutes talking about one 200 year Muslim dynasty, out of 1400 years of Muslim history that was harsh to everyone. This misplaced framing then comes into clear focus as he plunges into the present, where his interpretation of events is glaringly flawed and obvious for anyone to see.
If anyone ever listens to a deep seated Jew and his convoluted and warped mindset, then Boy you're being herded into the Abyss, along with them. people need to see beyond their version of events.
Obviously he is a scholiar. A lot of these losers try to pretend expertise (which they often have) but choose to mislead the people because they fetishise divisions and tribalism, because that’s what sells in a platform made in Silicon Valley with a Skinnerian business model
Harsh to everyone? Misplaced framing? No facts just slander and gibberish, a perfect example of an act of framing others
He clearly states that the animosity was not a 24/7 thing. For many decades or even a century, people would appear to be friendly and suddenly you have a pogrom resulting in a violent displacement.
Quite often, we hear false narratives that the locals got along well with the Muslim invaders. That's not quite the case. The invaders need the cooperation and wealth of the local populace and so in order to establish control there is a long period of stabilization while the locals are harassed to convert and their religious places are systematically taken down.
Jews had a rich history in Germany as well. Until they did not. That's the idea of not being treated as equal
Maimonides had to flee. He ended up in Egypt. Then his son had to flee Egypt to Aleppo. In the 1100s' the Jews were forced to flee Egypt. They were told convert or leave. Then later they were able to return. In the 1300s' they were told Convert to Islam or we kill you. So again the fled. Jews only returned to Egypt in the 1800s. Between 1948 to 1967 they fled again.
In Iraq my family lived from 586 BC to late 1800s.
Perhaps Almighty God had given them plenty of chances to correct their previously demented deep rooted self aggrandizing warped mindset that they were 'superior' and the chosen race, they violated the Divine covenant, and were exiled to wander the 4 corners of the earth until the time of the end. did they NOT reject the very cornerstone (Jesus) who warned them of their imminent demise? Time and again they killed the multitude of Prophets sent by Almighty God to remedy their warped thinking and callous disregard of the enshrined covenant, but they never did take much notice, so my question is why do people go to great lengths to defend the indefensible? why not get their own individual life right with Almighty God, this life is but a test, the shortest period, beyond is either eternal torment in the Hell fire, or eternal Paradise.

Killed a multitude of prophets? the murders of several prophets over 3500 year history isn't exactly an accurate way to judge an entire group. Again, you can't pour hatred onto a group because of the actions of jewish kings and rulers. God provides the vengeance, it is not for us humans.

From 586BC to the 1800s? You sure about those "facts"?
GOD bless and protect Israel !
Different groups always have issues even when they are the same religion and culture, look at civil wars, crime etc. This is inevitable. Be careful trying to pin everything on persecution as Jews. I say this as a Jewish woman but also as an evolutionary scientist.
Most importantly for us to understand at this time is that Palestinians are actually 90% descendants of Jews who converted to Christianity and Islam. They are not 'recent Arab migrants' as we were taught. Both research by Israeli anthropologists and genetic research supports this. They have maintained a continuous presence on that land, unlike we diaspora Jews.
The Egyptian caliph who converted the Jews in the seventh century simply left because the region was deemed benign. There was no populating with gulf Arab DNA. The Palestinians are almost indistinguishable from Mezrahim. The only difference is the Palestinians never left. It doesn't matter what the region was called when.
This is why even though I support the idea of a safe self determining place for Jews, I cannot support the 1800s level of understanding of race upon which Zionism was built. It relies on denying the indigeniety of the rightful owners of the land, and it requires going against our scriptures. The promised land was never supposed to be forced by human hands.
To suggest that Hamas acted solely on religious grounds against Jews in Israel is a gross simplification of the conflict. It's about power or the lack of it and it's about resources and the lack of the same. Furthermore, a more in depth analysis of the Middle Ages anti-Jewish actions will also reveal that religious differences were often just an the proximate trigger and that more material considerations also played a part.
Hamas was founded by Israel (yes, Israel, not Iran), was ever since funded by Israel and it remains an Israeli proxy to this day.
I suppose you know, do you not, that Israel was giving to Palestinians free electricity free water, which came at great expanse to Israeli tax payers. The Palestinians also received free food for the poor which everyone including the billionaires in Gaza were stealing. The heads of HAM-ASS I'm speaking about. And their cronies.
Islam is fundamentally antisemitic.
Because almost everyone in the west is conditioned into believing that arabs/Muslims are barbaric animals and Islam supported that idea of barbarism.
It's just Europeans projecting their mistakes and ideas and then Gaslighting everyone into believing that's the norm. Nothing new
WRONG
Right off the bat, the first information is wrong. Southern Spain was first invaded by the Ummayads, not the Muwahideen, who came about a hundred years later and really were fanatics, and whos fanaticism was an abberation! So this learned scholar, reduced the whole 600 period of Muslim rule in Spain to the Muwahideen rule of Spain that lasted from 1147 to 1162. As for the classifications in Muslim state and society, yes, it is true that Muslims were first class, but Christians and Jews were called the people of the book. Muslims believe that they are on right path to god while the people of the book are not, a common beliefe in most religions. However, Islam stipulated that the people of the book are to be safe for their lives and property as long as they pay a special tax to compensate for their not being conscripted; at the time wars were religious in nature. This is not to say that all was huncky-doory, but by the standards of the time the Muslim state was extreemely tolorant, and Jewish culture flourished in it more than it did anywhere else in history. Samuel ibn Naghrillah, was a Jewish grand wissier of Andalus (The Arabic name for Muslim Spain), something like a prime minister. I can go on and on and on and on.
Well done Harvard and Yell!!
To them, history started when they started doing the right thing even tho everyone else was doing it decades before them. I also love it when they explain something f***ed up happened decades ago, they simply brush by saying that's how things happened in those time ... unless they're talking about Muslims, now they have to bring Muslims to todays standards while also ignoring the fact that jews flourish under Muslim rules in an era where jew were hunted like sheeps.

Tell me who compiled the new testament scriptures together to form the Holy Bible we have today? Everyone here would love to see what you write.
Having grown up around a lot of Jews, first in Aspen and then CEDU/RMA (a Jewish run boarding school), I think that other derivative religionists feel inferior, even second-class, to Jews. I know, having been on the fringe of Jewish culture and having studied it to a fair level, that Jews come in all sorts and qualities, like every other group. However, for people who look at life only through the lens of religious dogma, Jewish culture must seem to be the touchstone against which all others must measure their validity. Time and again, apparently, they come up short, resulting in envy, which is followed by indignation, and finally by violence.😞
It's not that deep. Christian and Muslim holy books paint Jews in a very unflattering light, which is why Jews have historically faced violent persecution in the lands where these religions ruled. Jews living among Hindus, Buddhists, and various other far Eastern religions suffered little if ANY antisemitism for the simple reason that there was no pre-existing religious mandate against them among these other faith groups.
Nonsense.
Christianity is a sect of Judaism ... that was forced out of the religion ... by the dominant Pharisee sect after 70 AD.
Rabbis who rejected Jesus as Messiah & God ... made Judaism all about Jewish identity, nationalism with the Oral Torah being more important than the Torah.
And Islam is a pagan religion created by a pagan Arab Man who copied & corrupted teachings from the Bible ... for his gods & idols .. and himself. Have you actually read what Allah commands Muslims to do to Christians & Jews?
God promised Abram ... that he would be a father of Nations (Abraham) ... through the descendants of Issac & Jacob ... and Israel is suppose to be a light to the world .. & kingdom of priests sharing God & Messiah to all People ( not keep God to themselves).
There are only 15 m Jews.
There are over 2 billion Christians.
And the world is completely screwed if there were NO Jews ... & .... NO Christians.
This is all about freewill. To Follow & obey God (Father, Son, Spirit) or Man.
There is only God.
Meanwhile Satan will say Jesus is not the Son of God, and did not die on the Cross for your sings, and will promised the best sex in Heaven with white virgins ... if you murder, rape, pillage ... for Satan & his Prophet.

@@alekssalkinrkcread the comment you replied to. It explainscwhy that hate is built into Christianity and Islam.
@@alekssalkinrkc I think there are case examples of Eastern parts of the world persecuting people for their foreign religious beliefs, such as the Zoroastrians persecuting Christians, within the Sassanid Empire (Iraq of which was a part) and the Japanese Empire (during which the entire Christian population was wiped out). There's no reason to think that Jews would have fared any better. Human nature is what it is, violent and factionalist.
Here is a numerical fact.
In Europe prior to world war 2 there were 10 million Jews.
At the same time in Islamic lands there were less than 1 million total.
So, it’s very clear which religion was more tolerant long term.
The Jews acc decided to go to Europe because of the collapsing economy of the Muslim world, the followed the money believing that the pagan Christian’s had abandoned their pathetic religion but instead were met with the full force of Christian antisemitism
15.6 million jews worldwide beforehand.
You wouldn't know a verifiable fact if it slapped you in your pseudo-intellectual head.
And if the Ottoman Empire didn't take in Jewish refugees during the Spanish Inquisition while the Sultan shamed the Pope for such barbarity... it would've been less than half of that in Europe.
How many Jews lived outside of Europe before the Ottoman Empire collapsed by mandate of the anti-semitic world leaders after WW1?
Hitler was fond of islam
So? What's your logic? Initially Jews were divided equally between Muslim and Christian lands hence 10 Million Jews in Europe means Christians were more tolerant and only fell into insanity called holocaust?
That does not make sense. Unrelated.
This is a very close topic to me for a number of reasons, but if I may add some of my own perspective as an Ultra unOrthodox Jew, because I deeply resonate with the notion of merging the 2 oceans, so to speak.
I don't believe that Judaim, Islam and Christianity are entirely incompatible.
As mentioned, in relation to the Jewish communities ability to enhance their service to G-d by exploring and cherry picking aspects of other cultures; the first names coming to my mind are Philo of Alexandria and Flavius Josephus.
Personal/Ideological/Dogmatic opinions of these men aside, I believe that the work assigned to them from HaShem speaks for itself.
I remember the first time I heard the term Hellenist Jew, and all of the beautiful imagines that flooded my mind at the time. I was not disappointed in the least. Thank You HaShem.
But I want to bring this back to the Bible, specially Ezekiel 37, with relation to G-d's instructions for the future King, Moshiach, in that he will be a mix of both the bloodline of David, and Ephraim; reuniting Josef and Judah; while at the same time returning Israel/Judah to Judah/Israel.
"For there shall be one king, not 2"
The reason I bring this point up for consideration is the fact that Ephraimite Jews don't have a 'natural' Jewish mother, which, to me, appears as tho the Tribes of Josef are not unlike Great Uncle Ishmael, who, like Ephraim and Manassah, was blessed with an Egyptian mother.
Granted, I need to dig more deeply into Talmud to see if we have a more detailed debate on the subject, but I don't believe that I am mistaken in believing that Ishmael is the Patriarch of the Arab Nations; but does that make him the father of Islam?
I feel like I am jumping the gun even bringing this up, but it's better to jump and then land on my face then not jump at all, especially when I trust that G-d wouldn't have guided me to this video if it wasn't relevant to one degree or another.
But I once observed a Rabbi correspond Islam is with Ismael, Judaism with Israel, and Christianity with Esav.
I don't believe that I agree with this.
My intuition, which holds as much weight as a soap bubble to perceptions that are not my own, tells me that the mystery of bridging the spiritual/philosphical/logical/religious gaps between Muslims and Jews is to recognize, that Egypt (Isis, the Queen of Heaven) is the Mother of Islam.
Muslims recognize Patrimonial descent, more predominantly then Jews, there are exceptions; but this brings me back to my point of where the Lost Tribes of Josef are not matrilineal in nature, do to Isis being the the name of the Divine Feminine of the land of our birth.
I don't entirely disagree with the statement that can't use our eyes to judge a ppl that we aren't.

I know that this is ground that not all Jews are capable of traveling, but regardless of who unbeliever believe him to be, he was a Jew.
When one falls, we all stumble; or so I was taught our Sages.
What happens when a Jew observes Jesus as a Rabbi, not a savior.
Only G-d saves. Even Jesus knew that. Don't tell anyone about me. Please. For I don't do anything. I am but a servant of G-d. Another tree in His Royal Forest.
But at the same time, we taught talk about what divides, but we rarely speak on what unites us.
I am also lumping Paganism/Wytchery into this, as the Pagan gods are servants/children of HaShem, like His/Her servants in physical form.
We humans feed their egos, so of course they come to recognize that they have power over us, when we allow them to.
But it's like Solomon said, we must Fear, Love and Adore G-d.
I love You, HaShem.
But this is where I stand at the moment, that real peace comes from the resurrection of the Lost Tribes of Josef and the marriage m/reunification of Egypt and Israel.
That's just my 2 cents tho.
I could feel G-d wanting me to reply to this because of how interesting, and relevant this was I to enjoy.
Thank you, Rabbi, for sharing your insights.
It is like a sibling rivalry. According to the Old Testament or torah. Muslims feel that they are not the "chosen" people, but as a Christian, I think God loves all. However, the current Hamas attack was not just or fair. Those who wage wars first are at fault.
thats a big BS
"Muslims feel they are not chosen people" 😂😂😂 such a fals statement, what it means to be chosen? Or do you mean Arabs? Arab does not mean muslim! But everyone who obeys The God Almighty in Islam Asian, Black, Caucasian is chosen as long as he obeys God. In general in Islam there is no such thing as being exclusively chosen!
- Judaism is an ethno religion
- Christianity is a political religion
- Islam is a universal religion
I’m Muslim. And I always was taught Muslims were relatively tolerant to others, especially when compared to Christians with their crusades, inquisition, colonialism, etc.
I have a couple comments that I would love a serious response to…Regarding forced conversations:
1) Islam took over the Levant, Egypt, etc. fairly early on. Yet it took hundreds of years before they were majority Muslim. Which raises the question, if they did forced conversion/explusion, why did it take so long? Spain was cleansed of Jews and Muslims fairly quick.
2) how much was the jizya tax and how did that compare to the amounts the pre Islamic rulers taxed people? I suspect it was less of a burden that the status quo, which is another reason people may have voluntarily chosen Islam.
3) one reason I was quoted that people were not forced to convert was related to the jizya. The rulers didn’t force the people to convert, not out of conviction to text, rather, it would reduce the amount they could collect from people. So it could be from greed that they preferred people not to convert. But it still dispels the forced conversion narrative.
4) From what I know, the greatest rabbi of all time, the ram bam, came from the Islamic golden age and even systematized Judaism borrowing from the customization taking place within Islamic law at the time. I even heard that he was the physician to Saladin. If true, how would a Jew be trusted to be the physician to the Islamic ruler? How would the greatest mind emerge in an environment of persecution? Knowledge requires time and resources. Very difficult in a persecutory environment, especially producing a genius polymath like the ram bam.
Lastly, I do concede that under Islamic law, Islam came to rule, not follow. So the symbols, buildings, etc. would prioritize Islam over others. But this is normal, especially in a pre nation state world. Under secularism, it seems hard to understand, but I doubt any historian would think it was not normal empire behavior.

Nothing in Christianity actually dictates that others are to be underneath us. There is thus room for social progress which occurred with the enlightenment. Can Islam allow for an enlightenment? Not really. The only it could happen is if myslims actively ignore their own teachings.

@@consensualcode9750 Not all religions are equal and the same.

When it is pointed out how Jews and Muslims have gotten along just fine in the past, it should be pointed out that Jews as well as Christian, were second class citizens in Muslim communities They got along, simply becus what was the alternative? Not to mention, the slave trade was alive and well in these Muslim countries too.
What was the alternative? How about Europe's way pogroms, holocaust?
Jews participated in the slave trade as well.... And the "peace" which is much vaunted is a peace in indifference, it wasn't exclusive to Jews but to all communities living under the rule of Islam, meaning the dormant animosity did not exist solely towards Jews but was common between all other communities. Although compared to what was happening in Christian Europe, the Jews definitely had it better. Modern anti-semitism emerged in Christian Europe, after all.

Jews and Christians as "people of the book," equal with all others in the sight of God. Musa bin Maimoon (1135-1204) wrote his "Daleel al-Ha'ereen" in Arabic. This great Arab-Jewish intellectual and philosopher is known in the West as Maimonides, author of "The Guide to the Perplexed."
Sultan Bayezid II sent Kemal Reis to save the Sephardic Jews of Spain from the Spanish Inquisition in 1492 and granted them permission to settle in the Ottoman Empire.
12th century and continuing for hundreds of years, the Inquisition is infamous for the severity of its tortures and its persecution of Jews and Muslims. Its worst manifestation was in Spain, where the Spanish Inquisition was a dominant force for more than 200 years, resulting in some 32,000 executions.
Muslim sultan of the Ottoman Empire sent ships to Spanish ports to rescue the 100,000 to 200,000 expelled Jews. They were welcomed in Muslim lands in North Africa, Egypt and the Middle East as brothers in monotheism. The Jewish community in Turkey is planning many celebrations this year to express its appreciation for the rescue efforts of their Muslim brothers, who saved them from certain death.
How many Jews did the prophet kill/exile in Medina??? How many Christians were enslaved in Al-Andalus? Yes we are the religion of the book. You are the religion of the sword.
Equal in the side of God but still have to pay double taxation because they were second-class citizens.
'People of the book' is an Islamic invention.
The real is what happen to Medina Jews?
This man's thinking is rather confused.
I also would like to ask a question, who is a Jew? What makes you Jewish? Is it a religion? Is it an ethnic group? If it is a religion, anybody that converts is a Jew. So descendants of the people who were actually doing the persecuting could now be Jewish by conversion. If its an ethnicity, then it comes down to DNA. But then the Palestinians are closer to original Jewish people from middle east than any Jew from Europe, because they really are probably just Canaanites who took up Judaism when it came, and Christianity when it came, and Islam when it came. And its ridiculous to think hundreds of thousands of Jews were expelled from there by the Romans. If that is so there would be historical records from other areas of mass migration of peoples which will disrupt societies. It was probably only the elite who had to leave. And the peasant Jews most likely stayed as someone had to work the farms. And we call them Palestinians now. But again, who is a Jew really? Genetics or Belief?
The three Abrahamic Religions testify the same God of Abraham but with reciprcal irreconcilable theological and eschatological discordances. However Judaism is closer to Islam than to Christinaity (in its origins a jewish messianic sect conflicting with and separating from its mother-faith).
My biggest issue is how the muslims try to whitewash the Granada massacre.
Also how they ethnically cleansed all Jews after the 48 war.
Muslims “historians” really do cling to this one. Thank you for shedding light on it, and I’m sure they’ll be open to new information that isn’t from a mosque /s
We do learn better than this old man...
We do learn how Moslem save jews from Roman christ atrocities.

This movement among the Jews is not new. From the days of Spartacus-Weishaupt to those of Karl Marx, and down to Trotsky this worldwide conspiracy for the overthrow of civilisation and for the reconstitution of society on the basis of arrested development, of envious malevolence.

Sorry, but you seem to have forgotten the Crusades (1095). Meanwhile, back in merry old England, Clifford's Tower. Later, slightly south, the Inquisition, which led thousands to flee Spain for the Ottoman Empire.
This man makes a very reasonable narrative. Interesting history of this Spanish medieval period. I wonder if any Jews fled from Spain to Wales or other British Isles in the 11th century.
On number of occasions Prof Woolf offered evidence that directly contradicted his own proposition that 'convivencia' was a myth.
Furthermore the introduction of Iraqi in the 1940s, and Israel on Oct 7th, into his argument are topics completely unconnected to Medieval Spain.
Despite speaking with confidence and authority on the subject Prof Woolf's ideas however just don't add up.
But you literally offered evidence in the form of a wikipedia article elsewhere. When the issue is evidenced by sources that actually lived the status as a diminished people, youre trying to make comparison to an article anyone can edit.
he didn't say anything that contradicts. he said that it was a myth that jews christians and muslims lived peacefully. in reality, at the drop of a dime, the muslims would turn on the jews and massacre them. happened many many times.
I started to listen but it soon became clear that he was talking through his hat.
Love intelligent, knowledgeable humans. 🙂
quite a rare thing in the modern world
Except this one wasn't anything of the kind, select cherry picked skewed narrative curated to seek sympathy and recreate a favourable understanding. we all need to see the real truth by conducting independent critical peer reviewed evidence based research, this wasn't it. a fundamentally flawed and disproportionate short thesis on mostly unrealistic historical events.
I can scarcely begin to really grasp how on earth any of us really managed to survive ( not to mention the Roma & Sinti, who’ve suffered an open hatred & visceral hate almost everywhere in Europe & the Islamic world that, now, Jews are also once again being exposed to, after a ‘ hiatus ‘ of some 70 years ). My family were virtually wiped out, utterly annihilated, in our homes in Courland & Belarus. I often feel pangs of guilt for being the descendent of one of three brothers who managed to escape the Latvian ‘trawniki’ types & the einsatzgruppen.

3:56 You need to do more research about Islam, and his history!
The prime minister of the caliph Abd al-Rahman III was a Jewish intellectual named Hasdaï ibn Shapru in the 10th century in Muslim Spain !
So why were some Jewish scholars made judges and military commanders in Spain?
What does Maimonides have to say about this?
Ssshhs, you're not allowed to say that lol
He actually explained that. They weren't official commanders. You have to pay attention and not cut out what you don't want to hear.
Those who say during WW2, Muslims served in the allied forces that fought the Nazis, and deserve respect for that. Some did, and deserve respect, but they were less than 10% of the troops that fought the German military Nazi machine. Many Muslim soliders committed brutal sexual violence against European women and men during WW2, and deserved punishment. For instance, Moroccan soliders raped men, women, and children, in Italy ,when they were part of the allied forces that invaded Southern Italy .No other allied forces did this, even in war, against civilian populations
Good joke
That’s propaganda
It was a french order
😂😂
@@ZenatiOmar No it wasn't. It is predominantly something that wasn't even made public or known until quite recently, and it was almost an entirely a spontaneous series of acts by a lot of Muslim troops against non Muslims in Europe, the Far East ,and other areas of conflict where Muslims fought the easiest War known to man, against innocent civilian men, wome, and children.

As always, notions like the golden age of Moslem Spain are exaggerated and one sided, thanks for setting the record straight! Historians know more about classical Greece than they know about post-Roman North Africa. My grandfather, born in Mogador, Morocco, in 1895, used to tell me about the city of Ofran, on the caravan route to Timbuktu in the Atlas Mountains. There was a legend that a remote ancestor, Judah Afriat, was ordered to convert to Islam or be burned at the stake. He refused to convert and he and 50 followers were committed to the flames. There's no historical background in the sense of a date. But, before the burning, there seems to have been a relatively good relationship between the predominantly Jewish inhabitants of Ofran and their Moslem overlords. In my grandfather's time there also seems to have been a fairly cozy relationship, ending with the founding of Israel. It's a mystery how Ofran, which seems to have been a remnant of the Roman province of Mauretania Tingitana, ended up being taken over by the Moors, perhaps at the very beginning of the Moroccan kingdom. It must have been a bloodless takeover.

We are in the 21st century now. Freud concluded that European antisemitism reduced to the tradition of circumcision called MGM now. Ancient Greeks considered ancient Jews barbaric and primitive because of this. This is exactly what’s going on today. Both Jews and Muslims practice MGM. But Jews consider Muslims primitive because they also practice FGM, kill homosexuals, and still have slaves. These are critical measures of how some societies behave, and what traditions are to be rejected by civilized societies. We are still in a civilizational war but after 2000 years of interaction in Europe Israelis share more values with The West than do other countries in the Middle East. Our challenge is to define human rights and apply them to everyone. Don't hold your breath.
It's way deeper than that. To know the truth and facts you should read the islamic doctrines aka the quran and hadiths . You would learn how jews and Christians were treated from 7th century.
According to Dr. Peterson, Freud believed that the antedote to communism is Christianity. So there is utility in religion.

What a nonsense... FGM and having slaves is also allowed in jewish and christian Scripture (if you just believe in the holy scriptures, not the manmade authorities, which teaches against it and mixed that with unallowed nonsense). The jewish faith talks always about having slaves as a normal thing, or having many wives, for example David had more than 400 wives, some of them were normal women, others were slaves... Our messiah also told a parable with 10 virgin brides waiting for their husband (One husband with 10 virgins). He commanded slaves also to make a good service to their Owner, for glorifiying the faith and forbid them to try to become free. Jewish bible said, if you choose a slave, he must serve you for 7 years. After that he has the choose to become free. If he or she doesnt want to become free, we should make a ring in her nose, and then that human is slave his or her whole life. Intercourse with the female slave is also allowed in that case, because she is property to his owner. FGM isnt allowed? What a nonsense. Its a good thing. Think what the jewish messiah in the bible was saying in Matthew 18:8. Its a honorable practise, if you are truly afraid of going to hell.
The modern society is against all like that, because they hate G'd and they wants to live their unrighteousness life, without consequences, for that G'd cursed them and made them act, think and feel dishonorable. They have no living heart. its like a stone in their breast. For me its a good idea and for people who are poor or whoever wants it, its a good way.
The problem to the world is not such a nonsense. Against such things we shouldnt fight. We should fight against all Lawlessness, Deeds against the Thora, and Atheism. I disagree with the Quran not because its harder to christianity, but because the laws are to liberal, because the right understanded Bible, which commands us to keep the thora and the Laws of Messiah King at the same time, are harder than Quran alone. But they are true and I understand their deep meaning and sometimes I need to understand much more, about the Holy Scripture. Christianity today is exactly the opposite to the real jewish teachings of the New Testament, so you cannot understand what I mean if I say that book is much more harder then you think.
Superficial analysis
A Jew served as Iraq's Finance Minister in the 20s when Jews served most prominently in Iraq govt's civil service. Analyst made no mention of Sunni vs. Shia in Iraq where Jews many well off resided cordially with Sunni but not with Shia.
In Palestanian history.. Muslims and Christians were living with peace, prosperity, and harmony but Zionist had problems with everyone.
How many Jews are left in Iraqi? I know there are about 1.8 million Muslims Living in Israel. More than 10 percent of the population
Actually its the opposite, minorities are safer under Shia rather than Sunni rule.
@@lawren7615 how many Hindus are left in Afghanistan or Pakistan? It’s not just Judaism it’s any religion
@bunjijumper5345
As a Christian, I agree with everything you say. Christians in the ME and anywhere where they're a minority, say that the Shia are decent people. Shia have protected Christians at a cost to their own lives. However in Iraq, Saddam had an ok relationship with Christians. His deputy and friend, was a Christian called Tariq Aziz. Even Christians in Iraq and Syria, were in govt. And in both countries Shias treat minorities well.

Most of this nonsense, that non muslims paid killer taxes. A Muslim has to pay zakat a wealth tax of 2.5% -- jizya tax for non Muslims
, the rate was ten dirhams per year "in the time of the Prophet", this amounted to only "the expenses of an average family for ten days".
The Dhimma (third class citizens) paid the Jizya. The Islamic economy was based on taxing the unbelievers in their own occupied countries. That's why when you get to 90% Muslim population everything turns to...
He slandered “formal Islamic law” and didn't give a single citation, even mistranslated, from Qur'an or Sunnah or Exegeses of major classical scholars.
Be wary of even Islamic scholars who make claims disputed by other scholars about Islamic law with zero citations, let alone a non-Muslim non-scholar of Islam; Muslims can see his baseless claims for what they are, but I have a feeling we're not his target audience.
