The Ummayad Dynasty | 705CE - 750CE | The Birth of Islam Episode 07

- Abd al-Malik, during his lifetime, consolidated Umayyad rule over the Islamic Empire. At the time of his death in 705 CE, he had left behind a monarchy, powerful enough to challenge any force on the planet and on the brink of expanding into Europe.
In this episode, I discuss the Ummayad Caliphs after Abd al-Malik including Umar ibn Abd al-Aziz and the conquests that happened around this time like the Conquest of Sindh and the Conquest of Spain. I also discuss the early causes of the rebellions against the Caliphate that eventually led to the Abbasid Revolution.
Additional Facts:
1) Abd al-Malik is considered one of the greatest Caliphs due to his contributions to the empire. He modernized it by installing a postal service and minting currency. He also constructed the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem.
2) Muhammad ibn Qasim’s legacy is very prominent in Modern-day Pakistan now. Port Qasim in Karachi is named after him. In this photo, the ruins an old mosque built in his name can be seen in Sukhur, Sindh.
3) Anas ibn Malik was a volunteer servant to Muhammad, not a slave. Muhammad did hold slaves but none after the first revelation. He did, however, have concubines and even had a son with one. The son passed away at a young age.
4) Anas was very close to Muhammad and is witness to many Hadiths. According to tradition, Muhammad blessed Anas for his service. As a “result”, he went on to live a little over a century and had around 80 children.
5) It’s said that when Umar was a prince he used to wear a robe worth 1200 Riyals alone which would rub across the ground as he would walk. When he became Caliph, his entire outfit, during his inaugural address, cost 3 Riyals.

wow first time i see someone talk about Islamic histroy using actually Arabic reference. good job
Thank you! :)
Who doesn't? Like where are the others supposed to get info about the Muslim caliphs?
@@totalwartimelapses6359 Biased European orientalist sources off course.
What! You mean he didn’t use the reference of some western historian from 20th century!
Such high quality content. You're filling the huge void on CZcams for Islamic Historical videos in English. Much love.
@youcometome9 What Lies if I may ask?
For real
Its crazy that all of this happened within individual people's lifetimes.
As I belong to punjab I feel so blessed that Islam came to me through bin Qasim
Islam would come to you with bin Qasim or anyone because Islam should comes to your heart first ❤❤
Like in Indonesia the Islam came with no single battle
@@user-qm3zk9qc5p you're absolutely correct
In india, Pakistan, Bangladesh It spread through tonnes n tonnes of blood shed
@@smitaju so what?
Islam came to Punjab through sufi saints like Ali hajvere ,Fareed ul Deen ganj shaker and many more .
My tribe accepted islam on the hand of baba fareed ganj shaker Rh and I belong to one of the largest tribes of Punjab.
(Sorry for my English)
The mount of Tariq nice.
His empire sounds like it was incredibly decentralised.
I like to think it was something like modern-day Saudi Arabia. One family and its princes controlled everything. It was the Abbasids who decentralized the empire.
@@AlMuqaddimahYT it just seems very difficult for one caliph or his council to govern all of that land. I understand that they didn't have peninsulas and mountain ranges as bad as Europe but regardless, holding all of that land together is an impressive feat.
To be honest, they only held it for a little more than 50 years, Abd al-Malik secured the empire in the 690s and the empire fell to the Abbasids in 750. During these years, the dynasty, all male members of it contributed to running the empire. They had a mutual understanding and when one of them, Umar II, tried to disrupt it, they assassinated him.
@@jayasuryangoral-maanyan3901
@@AlMuqaddimahYT I see. Sounds a little like the early han dynasty
@@AlMuqaddimahYT saudi arabia is highly centeralized though. Anyway i believe the umayyads were highly keen on keeping the arab levies and governers in line but as long as tributes keep coming they were happy.the abbasids on the other hand were everywhere sending tax collectos and milking every dinar until they couldn't after almu'tasim.he was the last able of the abbasids.
great effort my friend .. thank you
The Umayyad dynasty was a major global superpower
Excellent content.. i use this to revise for my exams.. thanks!!
My favorite caliph umayah is umar bin abdul aziz... best of the best kalifah in history muslim and in my heart,, Alloh huma firlahu farhamhu faafihi fafuanhu greeting from indonesia
How yazid ibn muawiya ?
@@ahamedihamiyun5927 As a Sunni Muslim I believe Yazid was a Fasiq or a sinner and did not have the right to be Caliph. As one of our great Sunni Imams Ahmed ibn Hanbal said: "How can a Muslim ever love Yazid?" Yazid caused so much distress and chaos in the short time he was Caliph. He was responsible for the death of Hussein ibn Ali (RA) the grandson of the Prophet (SAW). He was responsible for the Sack of Madinah in the battle of Harrah where Yazid's army destroyed, killed, raped, and pillaged the holy city of the Prophet. They killed so much Sahaba and children of Sahaba. They killed the children and grandchildren of Abu Bakr, Umar, Talha. So as a Sunni Salafi Muslim I consider Yazid a Fasiq. Let's be clear though his father Muawiyah was a Sahabi whom I love and admire. And Allah knows best.
This Channel is exactly what people need to watch thank you for filling this void in accessing Islamic history I will certainly be recommending your videos to anyone I know whos interested in learning about the journey of the Islam in its infancy and at its height. Thank you for creating such a high quality videos for the world to enjoy.
Such a great video.
It's so cool of you to reference Jimmy Carter and recognise him for who he was
Great video thanks

3:49 that smile when you conquer whole iberia
Yup I wonder if the ummayads won at the battle of tours and successfully sieged Constantinople in 718 CE they would have held onto France, Grecce, Anatolia (Turkey) and possibly all of India.
@@imakeislamiccontent india isn't in Europe lol, and islam DID eventually conquered the whole subcontinent, but only if it were for th... O M G omg yes you're right if they conquered the whole europe, the english couldn't revoke the hind sultanate....noic
@@babla69420 Islam didn't conquered whole INDIA ..Delhi sultan ate and Mughal ruled over large part of India but not whole ...Assam was never under Islamic Rule ...Even if you consider Muslim ruler as Islamic rule...If Islam would had conquered Islam then whole India would had been Muslim but despite continuous rule of 500 years ...60 percent of Undivided India is Hindu
@@anandsaini ye some parts were left but it wasnt hindu undivided india,
as there were many hindus working for the sultanate, even in high military and government posts,
so it wasn't as black and white ie. Hindu vs muslim (sometimes after the initial Turkish sultanates) as you were saying. It became more about fight for power
There were periods of time in which indian subcontinent mostly under central authority
like mauryan, mughal and british raj but other than that, due to a lack of natural boundaries in the subcontinent and a lack of a central authoritative figure
for the most time the small princely states like gujrat and rajputanas, or the chauhans of delhi and palas of bengal and many others were fighting small and fierce battles.
India, just like current america has been a melting pot for majority of its history,
Early indians from africa 65000 years ago
Zagrosian farmers from southern iran 9000 years ago(mixing with the early ones and forming the harappan civilization)
Aryan nomads from southern Kazakhstan 4000 years ago( which had a huge influence on subcontinent's language and religion even today)
And many other small migrations by greeks, jews, huns, shakas, syriacs, parsis, turks, mongols, mughal, portuguese, french, english, dutch and many more like east asian Tibeto-Burman and Austronesian speakers.
We should be proud that we are children of such great and influencial civilizations and take a lesson from history and live in harmony.
Jai hind
@@anandsaini even deccan sultanates ruled south india and destroyed vijayanagar at the battle of talikota. Bengal Sultanate destroyed the Kamarupa kingdom of Assam. just accept that muslims ruled every inch of undivided india.
I love ur pronunciation of muslims name & events man, keep up the good work
Tomb of Umar II was the only tomb that as preserved by Abbasids
They destroyed the rest apparently
Umar II passed the law that all Muslims don't have to pay just a tax regardless of being Arab or none Arab
Under the new tax policy, converted mawali would not pay the jizya, but upon conversion, their land would become the property of the villages and remain liable to the full rate of the kharaj, or land tax. This compensated for the loss of income due to the diminished jizya tax base.
He undertook extensive public works in Persia, Khorasan and north Africa including the construction of canals, roads, rest houses for travellers and medical dispensaries
He made other reforms:
State officials were excluded from entering into any business.
Unpaid labour was made illegal.
Pasture lands and game reserves, which were reserved for the family of the dignitaries, were evenly distributed among the poor for the purpose of cultivation.
He urged to all of the officials to listen the complaints of the people and during any occasion, he used to announce that if any subject had seen any officer mistreating others, he should report him to the leader and will be given a reward ranging from 100 to 300 dirhams.
They didn't kill him cause of the they were losing money
They killed him because they were losing power and they were greedy and fearful of none Arabs as governers which would have had happened under Umar II
Very underrated ruler
ummayad was murderers and hypocrites

Thank you brother,
Long time I trying to understand shia sunni, but both judge there own way
🕋Imam Ali Speech in (Rashid Caliphate period) About Esteblishment Ummayad Dynasty by Arabs after him🕋
📜As if I see (him - Mowayia and Banu Ummaya), he (the Enjoiner of Evil-Ummayad Rulers) is shouting in Syria (Ash-Sham) and is extending his banners to the outskirts of Kufah(Ali's Caliphate) . He is bent towards it like the biting of the She-camel. He has covered the ground with heads(Massacre of Muslims in Mecca, Madinah Kufah and other Muslim areas) . His mouth is wide open(from Africa to Asia and Europe) and (the trampling of) his footsteps on the ground have become heavy(Pharoahs of Arab Worldl) . His advance is broad(Ahle Sunnat Waljamayat) and his attacks are severe(La illaha illalah Muhammad u Rasuluaah) .
By Allah, he will disperse you throughout the earth (Status of Muslims in 21st Century) till only a few of you remain(Shiyaan-e-Ali) , like kohl in the eye. You will continue like this till the Arabs return to their sense(Appearance of Mehdi) . You should therefore stick to established ways(Quran and Ahle Bait-Following deccident of Prophet) , clear signs(Imam) and the early period which has the lasting virtues of the Prophethood(Rashid Caliph Ali) . You should know that Satan makes his ways easy so that you may follow him on his heels(Ummayads breed of Islam) .📜
Authority : Nehjul Balaga.
thats all shia lies and wahabi traitors follow that lies to miss guided all muslims , ahle al bait is wifes of the prophet muhamed peace be apone him , and there is no mahdi , mahdi is jewish fairytails stories because they didnt belive in prophet muhamed , shia and wahabi is the enemy number 1 of islam , go back to quran dont follow hadith and you will never missguided ever
Amazing vids
Thank you very much
Was there mention of Muslim bin qutaibah and conquest of Central Asia? Similar time as tariq bin ziyad and ibn qasim

I don't really believe in castes but you are an Arain! This video gave it away. Heard about this Syrian Arabian decent of Arain from my father.
2:32 His empire had just consolidated power through brutal conquest, against its people, as you said.
That trauma & legacy has a price, and agency.

The video content is good but the audio sounds so mechanical!
Brother, how do u make these videos, I mean what software do u use, this is very expensive, can’t believe u make it for free
Bro, they really did my homie Uthman II dirty
bro make a video on the second fitna
The Umayyad Arab state controlled East Asia (the State of the Turks), western China, India, southern Russia, Spain, Portugal, southern Russia and Anatolia.
When will the next video come
What about the siege of constantinople of 717 to 718
the battle of Tours was no more than a raid. According to muslim sources, they never intended to conquer Europe in the west, but instead in the east
Yes, I agree. Edward Gibbons exaggerated the importance of the battle. There's no way Muslims could've been able to conquer Europe if they had won the battle.
Not Muslims, but Arabs, even non-Arab Muslims who were enslaved.
Sorry if I'm spamming your comment section with this, "I love you, man. You works are incredible."
and I thought that John Green spoke fast
One of the largest khalifat that is ummayadh
it's true
The largest*
The largest ❤
But you didnt tell about battle of rajastan where ummayad caliphath was deffeated and the arbas were driven out from India
I posted your first episode on my IGTV i dont have much followers less than 800
Can i got the rights so i mention you when i post?
The english captions appearing at rhe bottom of your video contain so many wrong words that you dont even check maybe its time to edit it
Would be sweet if you addressed prophet Muhammad with a “ PBUH “. ❤
Just a correction on Gibraltar. It comes from Jabal Tariq, not Jabal al-Tariq. the former means the "Mountain of Tariq", the latter means the "Mountain of the Tariq", which doesnt make much sense in Arabic given that context.
Tough to decide the more capable Umayyad - Muawiyah or Abd al-Malik...
Abdulmalik I think.
But muawiyah was a better muslim
@@kareemtheeb1478 muawiyah was scum bags he killed Muhammad ibn Abubakar inhumanly, he plan to killed imam hasan and he killed aisha too
@@Meliodasthesinofwrath He never killed Ayesha. It is a lie
@@ishrakmohammad7307 How did Ayesha die?
"Muawiya invited Ayesha for dinner, and he got a ditch dug in the ground, filling it up with sharp knives and swords, with their blades facing upwards. According to Alama Ibn Khaldoon, Muawiya masked that ditch with lanky pieces of wood, and spread a carpet on top of it all to camouflage it. He placed a wooden chair over it for Ayesha to sit. No sooner Ayesha sat on the chair, the whole set up retrieved and she fell in the pit, injuring herself from head to toe, and breaking a lot of bones. To hide his felony, Muawiya got the ditched filled up with lime. That is how he murdered Ayesha; she was sixty four years old when Mauweyah murdered her towards the end of 57 Hijri.
This proves, without a doubt, that Muawiya was an enemy of Prophet Mohammed (sawa), and he proved his enmity towards the Prophet (sawa) by murdering his (sawa) wife. The only reason that Mauweyah performed this heinous act was that Ayesha stopped him from making fun of Islam from the pulpit of Masjid-e-Nabvi.. This is why no one knows the exact location of Ayesha’s grave in Medina."
He killed Ayesha in cold blood after ordering the killing of her brother Muhammad bin Abu Bakar. He was also responsible for the killings of many other companions of the Prophet (sawa) including Hajar bin Adi and Ammar Yasir.
Following the death of Muhammad bin ‘Abu Bakr the people of Egypt gave bayyah to Muawiya . It was following this (event) that Ayesha would curse Muawiya and Amr bin Aas after every Salaat.

You brushed through Abdelmalik ibn Marwan, but he was probably one of the most important figures in Islam. He build the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem, and was the first to put the full shahada on a coin, including Muhammad's name on money for the first time in history (coins from the time of Mu'awiya had his name with a cross on top, making some historians think that he might have been a Christian). It's also speculated by Revisionist historians that Mecca's location had been changed during his time, from somewhere near Petra in Jordan, to its current location, maybe under his orders. And he might have also played a big role in determining the finalized version of the Koran.
Koran was finalised by Omar the 4th Caliph.
@@bendover8689 According to Islamic history books which were written down 2 centuries after the events. Hardly a reliable source.
Old datable manuscripts, coins and buildings are more reliable to find out hidden truths that have been put aside for political or ideological purposes.
Check the work on the Sanaa masnuscripts for example, which dates back to Abdulmalik ibn Marwan, and shows differences from the current version of the Koran.
@@bendover8689 It was re-compiled, arranged according to its length of chapters. But the Muslims across the world rejected it and the old version prevailed. The same old unchanged version which we have today.
The location of Makkah is pretty solid which is the current location. Makkah existed prior to Islam as confirmed by Greek and Roman travellers and also from records by the inhabitants of Makkah. Also many of the relatives of Muhammad i.e the Quraish tribe along with other tribes still live in the region. Lastly all the physical evidence like the place of Muhammad and the places he frequented are marked. It is documented in details where each individuals lived, who have been involved both with and against Muhammad around the revelation of Islam.
In fact the location of Makkah is confirmed in the Bible as being at the south of mount sinai. Which is a mountain at the northern region of Saudi Arabia. Which If you know the geography, means Makkah is the south of that said mountain.
Bani hashim ruled mecca.
Even if the caliphate was not theirs.
There is so much yemeni writtings talking about mecca.
The Ummayud armies from Damascus were utterly destroyed in India around 750 CE. Major reason why the caliphate collapsed.
The video is great...but u should be more respectfull while adressing Prophet Muhammad S.A.W
Your version of history . How xome you didnt cover the rest of the Ummayad period? Thx for not sharing equal information that would show Aeabic people not being racists.
