    BAKU - In the first part of the History of Islam, we discussed the succession to Muhammad and the birth of the Caliphate under the leadership of Abu Bakr. The formation of the Caliphate was not easy, and the newly elected Caliph faced a secessionist rebellion throughout Arabia. He overcame the rebellion, but his reign lasted for only two years. Before Abu Bakr’s death, however, he nominated his trusted military advisor Umar as a candidate for the Caliph. The ‘Ummah’ and the council of elders were stunned because Abu Bakr and Umar could not have been more different.
    Abu Bakr was the wise and modest grandfather type of person. He dressed simply and he lived simply. He accumulated no wealth and made every decision together with the council of elders. As the Caliph, he received only a very small salary; in fact, Abu Bakr continued his trading business just to get by. Sometimes he even milked his neighbors’ cows for extra cash. For all of his modesty and humility, he was greatly respected.
    Umar, on the other hand, was known as a brawler and a drinker prior to his conversion to Islam. He had a notorious temper and intimidated the people around him with his great height. So, the council wasn’t convinced that Umar was the right person for the office. Then, in the heat of the debate, Ali stepped forward and endorsed Umar. This tipped the scale of the debate; Umar was elected as the new Caliph.
    Over the next ten years, Umar would lead the Caliphate. He would conquer the lands of Persia, Mesopotamia, the Levant, and Egypt, and he would give Islamic civilization its own unique identity. Umar was a theologian as influential as Saint Paul, and he was a statesman and a patron of philosophy, much like Lorenzo de' Medici. But Umar was also a social reformer, like Karl Marx, and a military thinker equal to Napoleon. Any of these achievements would have earned him a place in history, but when most people speak of Umar, all they know is that he was the second Caliph.

      Mahmoud Zaki Neither did i at first, until heard what he was actually saying about Umar RA.
      For example he said that Umar RA bent the rules so he could do an 'unislamic' war with Persia.
      Not only that, he also twists history to make Umar RA seem even less genuine, by saying that the reason Umar RA nominated Abu Bakr RA for khalifah was because it was the custom to respect old people. implying if this was not the case then Umar RA would have taken the Khalifah for himself.
      We know the status Allah has given Umar RA and how beloved he was to Muhummad SAW
      The prophet Muhummad SAW said:
      If there were to be a prophet after me, indeed he would be Umar, son of Khattab. [Sunan Tirmidhi, Hadith 3686]
      Muhummad SAW would not have said this, if Umar RA's personality and spiritual bond with Allah was defective. In fact only the best of people were the prohpets, and for Muhummad SAW to say that Umar RA has such charachtersitics, shows just how little justice this video has done on Umar to slander him to the extent of saying he would change the religion to suit his preferences.

      Mahmoud Zaki
      Also he made it seem as if Ali RA was exlcuded on purpose from becoming Khalifah, when he was supposed to become Khalifah but from Ali RA own words;
      Hadrat Abdullah bin Salma Radi Allahu Allahu Ta'ala Anhu reports from Sayyiduna Ali Radi Allahu Allahu Ta'ala Anhu ,
      خیر الناس بعد رسول الله صلی الله تعالی علیه وسلم ابوبكر وخیر الناس بعد ابوبكر عمر
      'After the Noble Messenger, the best of people is Abu Bakr, then the best of people is Umar' [Sunan Ibn Majah, Hadith 111]
      and
      Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah ennoble his face) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah bestow peace and blessings upon him) said,
      أبوبكر وعمر سيدا كهول أهل الجنة من الأولين والآخرين، ما خلا النبيين والمرسلين
      “Abu Bakr and `Umar are the leaders of the mature inhabitants of Paradise, of the first and the last with the exception of the Prophets and the Messengers.” [Jami' al-Ahadith, Hadith 233]
      If Ali RA had been involved he would have surely nominated Abu Bakr RA and then Umar RA

    You got it wrong there! 1:00
    Umar wasnt viewed as "not fit for office", it was actually Umar himself who continuously declined to be a Caliph. Before his death Abu bakr nominated Umar because Umar was just as wise as abu bakr if not more. Even before accepting islam Umar was viewed as a Wise man. There are literally verses in the Quran that came down supporting his opinion when he discussed a matter with the prophet. The is a saying from prophet, "if a prophet was to come after me it would have been Umar".
    Umar although was very strict throughout his lifetime, remained the advocate of justice. There was no man after prophet who was more just than umar. You may have checked about his personality from shi'ite sources as they always try to degrade his legacy. But he still remains one of the most just, wise, brave, pious and down to earth companions of prophet

      Your maps leave out cities and Arabic societies north of Medina that came up with soldiers that took over weak Byzantium and Persian counties. It was not islam and a man named moe. Be honest with yourself. Nothing came out of the dust of the desert south of Medina. The Arabic arising came about in Mesopotamia and Nebation area and Is known as northern Saudi Arabia and Jordan and Syria. The fake history of the Mecca conspiracy must be thrown into the trash bin of fakers. The first gathering of stories now found in the quran pre date 630 AD and are Christian writings. The first Arabic inscriptions are found on Christian churches in Syria. This video is using fake stories that were written after 800 AD. Be honest and use only 8th century sources. You will change your views when you learn the truth from that time in history.

    Amazing i admire your amazing report Shirvan, but some things need to be corrected.
    1. Quran super clearly did ban slavery [The Qur'an 90:12-13]
    2. The punishment for people who commit illegal sex (Sex outside marrige) is not "Stoning to death" it's only 100 lashes based on the Qur'an 24:2 & the punishment only applied if the doers do it publicly, that's why it's said 4 witnesses are required
    3. Stoning to death is not found in the Qur'an and no doubt it's only applied to "Rapist" and the law was found in Jewish Book "Taurat" the book of Moses
    Keep up the amazing work pal!

      Dayar-E-Hind (Hindyan) exists till date in Iraq, Karbala this was the place where hindu warriors fought against yazid to avenge the death of Imam Hussain and the family of prophet Mohammed.
      In short shia muslims should always be supporting Hindus and vice versa we are related by blood line ...you can say that hindus and shia are children of mothers sister. this is why hindus went to fight for Imam hussain in karbala , they received distress call from their cousins and they went to protect them from yazid/ wahabhi muslims.
      Yest still it is shia who have cheated their hindu brothers and supported the yazids time and again. During battle of plassey it was Mir jJaffer who cheated india and joined the british. In 1947 a shia /Ahmadiya muslim Jinnah created Pakistan. During Nkholi riots it was a sshia muslim who organized to burn 5000 hindus in a factory which resulted in riots all over India. The conspirators of godhra train burning included shia muslims. So Hindius cannot help but regret if their cousin brothers the shia muslims keep getting brainwashed by wahaabhi nd yaazid muslims. it is time to wake up and join RSS and BJP, but will shia muslims cheat their hindu brothers again only time will tell.

      Story of 2nd Caliph Umar ibn al-Kha??ab and the Attack of Persia, Sysanaid Empire
      In 610 Muhammad started preaching the message of Islam. Like many others in Mecca, Umar opposed Islam and he even threatened to kill Muhammad. He was adamant and cruel in opposing Muhammad and very prominent in persecuting Muslims. He recommended Muhammad's death. He firmly believed in the unity of the Quraish and saw the new faith of Islam as a cause of division and discord.
      Due to persecution, Muhammad ordered some of his followers to migrate to Abyssinia. When a small group of Muslims migrated, Umar became worried about the future unity of the Quraish and decided to have Muhammad assassinated. Umar at the age of 39 converted to Islam in 616. In 625 Umar's daughter Hafsah was married to Muhammad. At the time of signing of Treaty of Hudaybiyyah, wherein Muhammad giving in to the Quraysh on most points, including not using the name of Allah and not calling himself the Messenger of God. Umar later said that if a hundred men had supported him, then he would have left Islam then
      The Persian ruler Khosrau II (Parviz) defeated a dangerous rebellion within his own empire, the Bahram Chobin's rebellion. He afterward turned his energies towards his traditional Byzantine enemies, leading to the Byzantine-Sassanid War of 602-628. While Prophet Mohd was alive there existed a Treaty of Hudaybiyyah in 628, Islamic Prophet Muhammad had sent many letters using his ambassadors to the neighbouring kings and princes including Khosrau II. Sassanid King Khosrau II submitting to the Byzantine Emperor Heraclius, from a plaque on a 12th-century French cross. This is only an allegory, as Khosrau never actually submitted in person to Heraclius.
      Khosrau II was executed in 628 and as a result, there were numerous claimants to the throne; from 628 to 632 there were ten kings and queens of Persia. The last, Yazdegerd III, was a grandson of Khosrau II and was said to be a mere child aged 8 years.
      Muhammad on the 9th of Dhu al-Hijjah, 10 AH (6 March 632) in the Uranah valley of Mount Arafat, during the Islamic pilgrimage announced Ali as his successor read the full text of last sermon yet Abu bakr forced himself as caliph ignoring the wishes of prophet mohammed. He also said in the same last sermon, I have left behind two precious things amongst you, one of which is greater than the other. The Book of Allah, the Exalted, and my 'itrah (i.e. Ahl al-bayt). So watch out how you treat these two after me, for verily they will not separate from each other. Umar attended the event of Ghadir Khumm, which took place a few months before Muhammad passed away. According to both Shia and Sunni sources, he was among the many who pledged allegiance to Ali at the event. In Medina, after the Farewell Pilgrimage and the event of Ghadir Khumm, Muhammad ordered an army under the command of Usama bin Zayd.Muhammad gave Usama the banner of Islam on the 18th day of the Islamic month of Safar in the year 11 A.H. Abu Bakr and Umar were among those that Muhammad commanded to join Usama’s army, However, Abu Bakr and Umar resisted going under the command of Usama despite order of Mohammed. However, while a few companions were ready to join Usama’s army, many other companions, including Abu Bakr and Umar, disobeyed Muhammad’s orders. So there was mutinity even as Prophet Mohammed was alive, lead by Abu Bakr and Umar. Umar's political capacity first manifested as the architect of the caliphate after Muhammad died on 8 June 632.
      After the death of Prophet Mohd, many muslims/ Umar/ Abu Bakr deserted prophets message soon after his death and accepted Abu Bakr as caliph, the rich Ummayyads supported Abu Bakr, and the second caliph Umar also supported him. Abu Bakr then asked Umar to prophet Mohammed daughter Fatima to get her acceptance, but Fatima was very angry she said I dont want to see Abu Bakr face, asked Ali not to invite Abu Bakr to her funeral. To this Umar was very angry he pushed Fatima which led to her Abortion and then he burned her house. One by one all the family members were killed by the muslims. All these facts are recorded in Sahih Muslim and Sahih Bhukhari, I can share the exact references for anyone.
      en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umar
      Soon after prophet mohammed death the caliphs ignored the existing treatys with the Sassanid, the Arab conquest started precisely when the Sassanians and Parthians were exhausted in internal warfare over succession to the Sassanian throne this was between the period from 628 to 632. Arab Muslims first attacked the Sassanid territory in 633 , The second invasion began in 636, then Caliph Umar ordered a full invasion of the Sasanian empire in 642, which led to the complete conquest of the Sasanians around 651. In this war Caliph Umar took pages of Quran and put them on the spears to motivate everyone to fight the Sysnaids, as initially people did not want to attack the Sysanaids due to the treaty in place between the arabs and Sysanaids. This is why in my view Umar betrayed prophet Mohammed, as prophet mohammed preachings was never to attack anyone who has treaty with you, and not to force anyone to convert in this case neither were observed.
      Eventually, military reinforcements quashed the insurgency and imposed Islamic control. The violent subjugation of Bukhara is a case in point: Conversion to Islam was gradual, partially as the result of this violent resistance; however, Zoroastrian scriptures were burnt and many priests were executed.
      With no dis-respect or with no intentions to hurt anyones feeling.
      As per Sahi Bukhari & Sahi Muslim Umar bin khattab is the same man, who
      1. Swore to kill Prophet mohd before converting to Islam
      2. During Prophet Muhammad's Last Sermon, on the 9th of Dhu al-Hijjah, 10 AH in the Uranah valley of Mount Arafat, during the Islamic pilgrimage of Hajj. Prophet Mohammed announced his successor as Ali and Umar promised in that meet to support Ali, but soon after this joined hands with the 1st caliph Abu Bakr ignoring the promise given to the prophet..
      3. Soon after the death of prophet, broke all the treaties with neighbours which were made by prophet himself and attacked sysanaids and byzantine empire.,
      4. Came to force Ali to accept Abu Bakr as the 1st caliph instead he burned the house of Fatima and caused her abortion. Fatimah was killed as a result of injuries sustained when her house was attacked and burned by Umar.
      5. When Prophet appointed a new general for his army he asked umar and abu bakr to go to syria but they both disobeyed prophets orders and refused to go.
      6. Umar was not present at the funeral of the Prophet of Islam. He was brawling with the Ansar in the outhouse of Saqifa when the body of the Prophet was being buried It is he who was responsible to make abu bakr to make abu bakr the 1st caliph against the wishes of the prophet.
      7. Pierced the pages of the Quran onto the spears to motivate muslims to fight the persians.
      8. The prophet on his deathbed, he asked the companions to bring pen, paper and ink so he might dictate his will but Umar defied him. He did not let the Apostle dictate his will and testament.
      9. The Banu Umayya were the traditional champions of idolatry and the arch-enemies of Muhammad and his clan, the Banu Hashim. Muhammad had broken their power but Umar revived them. The central component of his policy, as head of the government of Saqifa, was the restoration of the Umayyads. He turned over Syria to them as their “fief,” and he made them the first family in the empire.
      10.When Syria, Jordan and Palestine were conquered, Umar appointed Enemy of prophet , Yazid bin Abu Sufyan the governor of Syria
      11. When Yazid bin Abu Sufyan, the governor of Syria, died in the plague of 18 A.H. When Umar heard the news of his death, he went to see Abu Sufyan to offer condolences to him. But Abu Sufyan interrupted Umar's commiseration, and asked him, “Whom are you going to appoint governor of Syria in place of my late son, Yazid?” Umar said: “Of course, his brother, Muawiya.
      There are so many incidents like this mentioned in Sahi Muslim and Sahi Bhukhari about Umar.
      Whenever this questions raise the standard answer is this is shia propaganda then why are the sunnis follow the books of Sahi Bhukhari and Sahi Muslim that mention these facts.
      There is no fire without smoke, the while episode of fitna seems like a conspiracy against ahl-bayt.
      The reign of each of the caliphs did not last long, there was a rebellion within 20 days of Abu Bakr announcing himself as caliph.
      Abu Bakr's era: 632-634
      Umar's era: 634-644
      Uthman's era: 644-656

      0bserver00 no you have just been taught a lie for your entire life, this is why 'ISIS' terrorists love Khalid ibn Waleed. For example have your scholars ever taught you about this hadith:
      Aisha said: “'The verse of Rajm (stoning) and of suckling an adult ten times were revealed, and they were (written) on a paper and kept under my bed. When the Messenger of Allah expired and we were preoccupied with his death, a domestic animal entered and ate away the paper”

      Amar Abidali A lie? Muhammad S.A.W himself trust khalid al walid and personally give him the title 'sword of Allah'. and I should believe you and your scholar accusing him as a rapist over my Prophet?
      a verse written on paper? BAHAHAHAHA! first of all Muhammad S.A.W never write anything on paper since he is illiterate. Then someone must have write it for him.. meaning someone else must heard of the verse and memorize it. Futhermore There is no Quran printed on paper before Uthman b. Affan became a caliph.and that fake hadith is a blasphemy and contradict the Quran. This are verse where Allah promise to protect and preserve the Quran.
      "[Quran 15:9] Absolutely, we have revealed the reminder, and, absolutely, we will preserve it."
      "[Quran 56:77-80] This is an honorable Quran. In a protected book. None can grasp it except the sincere. A revelation from the Lord of the universe."
      Did you really think Allah S.W.T would let an animal wipe out an entire verse from the Quran after what He promise?

    • @amarabidali5316
      @amarabidali5316 Před 8 lety +3

      0bserver00 1- That "sword of Allah" is a lie, RasoulAllah (saww) disassociated from Khalid ibn Waleed (la), like the Christians you follow the hypocrites who were enemies to RasoulAllah (saww). The fact that you believe that no person can reach the imaan of Abu Sufyan (la) is enough for any logical person to know you follow lies.
      Also ask your scholars, read your books, Khalid (la) killed Malik ibn Nuwayra (ra) a great companion of RasoulAllah (saww) and raped his wife at the same night. Umar (la) who didn't like Khalid (la) wanted to have him killed because of what he done.
      2- RasoulAllah (saww) was not illiterate, you know when they were making the peace treaty of Hudaybiya and the Pagans wanted RasoulAllah (saww) removed from his title so RasoulAllah (saww) erased it? How did he know where RasoulAllah (saww) was on the paper if he could not read?
      Futhermore for his will he wanted a pen a paper before Umar (la) didn't allow him and insulted him.
      3- Quran was compiled during the life of RasoulAllah (saww). Allah (SWT) says in the Quran that He sent down the Quran to us. Not a bunch of ayahs and surahs.
      4- You are saying that your mother Aisha (la) is lying when she said ayah of Quran was eaten and so there is tahreef?

    • @0bserver00

      Amar Abidali Your scholar is the liar here.. passing down false Hadith, slandering the prophet companion.. Muhammad S.A.W trust these people with his life and who do you think would know better about them? Muhammad S.A.W who live with them or your scholar who live centuries away? Before the time Uthman become caliph,most people just memorize the Quran.. sure there are some verse written on pelt, leaves or stone but not many and there is no such thing as a complete book of Quran. The use of paper is not yet common among the arab community since most of them is illiterate...oh about the Hudaibiya treaty, there is this magical ability that all man & woman have that help communication a bit easier. this ability is called 'pointing' you should try it some time.
      Aisya r.a is an honest woman,the wife of the prophet Muhammad S.A.W , an Ahlul-Bayt, She does not utter such lies..And just how dumb that story is, you can already see it is invented at the first glance.The golden rule of hadith is, Any hadith that contradict the Quran is a false hadith. False Hadith is an invention by the enemy of Islam with the sole purpose to corrupt Islam. My friend, your so called 'scholar' that you follow is the enemy of Islam.

Neither ancient history nor religious laws & codes are areas I know much about - but, as someone interested in geopolitics of the contemporary world since 19th century onwards, getting insights into foundational events that shaped, and still shape, our society, politics and culture, really stengthens one's understanding of things and processes... Especially appreciate the perspective into how analogy as a basis of law played a crucial part in gender-based segregation over time and different cultures.

      Mohammad did send a letter to Persian king asking him to convert to Islam.
      Khosrau II (Arabic كسري) is also remembered in Muslim tradition to be the Persian king to whom Muhammad had sent a messenger, Abdullah ibn Hudhafah as-Sahmi, together with a letter to preach the religion of Islam. In Tabari’s original Arabic manuscript the letter to Khosrau II reads:
      بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
      من محمد رسول الله الى كسرى عظيم الفارس . سلام على من اتبع الهدى و آمن بالله و رسوله و شهد ان لااله الا الله وحده لاشريك له و ان محمد عبده و رسوله. ادعوك بدعاء الله، فانى رسول الله الى الناس كافة لانذر من كان حيا و يحق القول على الكافرين. فاسلم تسلم . فان ابيت فان اثم المجوس عليك .
      English translation:
      In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Ever Merciful
      From Muhammad, Messenger of Allah, to Chosroes, Ruler of Persia. Peace be on him who follows the guidance, believes in Allah and His Messenger and bears witness that there is no one worthy of worship save Allah, the One, without associate, and that Muhammad is His Servant and Messenger. I invite you to the Call of Allah, as I am the Messenger of Allah to the whole of mankind, so that I may warn every living person and so that the truth may become clear and the judgment of God may overtake the infidels. I call upon you to accept Islam and thus make yourself secure. If you turn away, you will bear the sins of your Zoroastrian subjects.

    Let’s try and be aware of our own biases, we are all watching this video (Sunni, Shia,...) wanting it to agree with our point of view and our own past information, that’s not learning, that’s not growing, that has a name in psychology called “confirmation bias”.
    Let’s also remember that most of us never really looked into the history ourselves, and that most of our main ideas and themes came from our parents, teachers, and schools.
    I hope one day we can leave the hate we inherited from the past generations where it belongs in the past, and stop fighting about what we were told happened a 1400 Year’s ago.

      I was wondering about that. Especially since there was another Caspian report on the Arab conquest of Persia which referenced that exact quote.
      Shirvan is far better than many Orientalists, but he tends to follow much the same narrative as many of the atheist progressives of the West...that religion is a tool that is always manipulated to serve the interests of those who have power rather than strictly adhered to by people like the Khulafaa-al-Raashidun. The fact is that the Prophet Muhammad had already predicted the invasion of Persia by the Muslims and the Persian nobles were already attempting to recover the territory the Muslims had conquered from them. As with the Tabuk and Mu'tah campaign, the Arabs, with the exception of many passionate Sahaaba and Taabi'een, were as all tribal people reluctant to join a campaign in a far-off land when they did not recognize an immediate threat and the odds were stacked so heavily against them.

      Those who support Abu bakr and Umar and uthman are forgetting that it is abu bakr who sent Umar to force Fatima to accept him as the caliph of Muslim but when Fatima refused to even see his face till death Umar kicked Fatima causing her abortion and he also burned Fatima house. These people who follow the first 3 caliph forget that when prophets Mohammed spoke to 10000 persons during the last sermon he declared Ali his son in law as successor to even Umar was present there he swore allegiance to Ali but later sided with Abu bakr. The Muslims who support Quran forget very conveniently forget that the Quran very clearly states that Mohd was the prophet of Israelites and not of the Muslims, the Muslim umma created by Abu bakr. The people who support the first 3 caliphs forget that soon after the last sermon Mohd announcement of the commander of the army, he asked Abu bakr and Umar to go to Syria under the commander but both Abu bakr and Umar disobeyed prophet Mohammed. They forget that Muslims killed the kins of prophet Mohd which lead to divide of Shi’a and Sunni. Not just that after prophet Mohd died Umar did not accept the treaty of neighboring states and he attacked Persia while a small child was king he disobeyed Mohammed treaty and attacked the neighbors unprovoked and burned the Zoroastrian priests. Umar supported Abu bakr to become caliph and versa. Within 20 days of Abu bakr becoming caliph there were riots and protests the reign of Abu bakr was against the wishes of prophet Mohd and so the first 3 caliph hijacked Islam and prophet Mohd

He responded that if that is the case separate mosques can be made for their convenience.When ever Omer had a problem he used to go for Aisha's counceling who was a women.

    • @rjhaveri8bh

      Ali believed he was the successor chosen by prophet mohd to lead the followers of Islam after Prophet Mohd, but when Abu Bakr cheated him to take up the role, he was not happy. Fatima also swore not to speak to Abu bakr, and told Ali not to call Abu BAkr for her funeral. When Umar kicked Fatima in the stomach while she was pregnant , this caused the death of Fatima and her unborn son mohsin. After his wife was killed Ali became sour he was not interested in being leader he lost interest he did not want anything to do with the caliphate role. This is why he may have got up and said let Umar be the caliphate I am not interested, even after uthman death he was not interested to take up the role of the caliphate. . Umar was also an intimidating person very largely built and tall. Abu bakr and Umar started to threaten Ali, he had responsibility of his children who were now without mother, ali did not want to do anything with Islamic followers due to the intimidation and the depression. Later on after lot of convincing he agreed to take up the role. Let understand AL was not a very well built man, he was medium physique and a tummy. So he was intimidated by Umar. He was scared for his family.
      However Ali was not the one to decide, the decision was prophet mohd's, and he has not nominated abubakr or umar. Prophet mohd decision was final and binding for muslims but the depression of ali lasted appx 6 months. So abu bakr and umar illegally took control of the caliphate against the wishes of mohd.

      Nikola Maticki Those are good questions. First, the Quran was memorized by dozens of people during the lifetime of Muhammad. Umar was the one who suggested to Abu Bakr to establish the definitive version. So the project started during the reign of Abu Bakr and finally finished during the rule of Uthman. All the other variations were destroyed. As for your second question. The Ulema argued that to uphold law there was the need for punishment (back then it made sense). Muslims who consider the Quran as the sole source of information are known as Quranists.
