They went to ethopia because the african king there was known to be so kind, and accepting of others and strange ideas.
We arabs called him Al-Najashi, the king who never shadows his people ( referring to his kind demeanor ). They stayed there to regroup from conflict basically.
The king is named najashi, while the region was called “habasha”.
@Kyle906-Q8 Kyle is a great Arabic name, you are NOT Arab, takiya
A lot of errors and misrepresentations here. Let me mention some. First off, the first Muslims who fled to Abbyssinia, modern day Ethiopia via Saila, North West Somalia, were led by Ja’far Abu Dalib and the reason being persecution by Quraish and it was advised by the Prophet himself starting that there’s (in Ethiopia) a just king who would offer you an asylum. Plus, the Quraish, upon learning that they escaped towards Ethiopia, dispatched a group of men contesting their legitimate asylum seeking. Upon arrival, both sides presented their cases in front of the King Najashi who granted the Prophet’s apostles an asylum after they recited a chapter of the Qur’an dealing how Mary conceived Jesus Christ and his miraculous birth at which point the King himself being Christian and knowledgeable of his faith, wept due to emotion. Secondly, there’s no enmity between Othman bin Affan and the Prophet, and after embracing the faith not converting, Othman’s daughter, Hafsa was later married by the Prophet thus becoming in-laws. Third, Abu Bakar’s succession of the Prophet was based on a hint given by the Prophet himself after he nodded to him to lead the last prayer at the mosque attended by the Prophet which was interpreted as a signal to the apostles to elect Abu Bakar. Lastly, I don’t have space here, but I conclude my comment by saying that the narrator has omitted the theological part of the history of early Islam. Another thing I have to mention here is that, it was Mu’awiya Bin Abu Sufyan who hailed from Osman’s sub-clan who established the dynasty (ummuwiyah) in Dimuscus… I wish I had the time to correct you. But all in all, it seems this man has derived this from non-Islamic sources! Having said that there’s a lot of correct information in here as well!!!!
Thank you brother i was looking for someone to correct what mistakes i have noticed in the first few minutes of the video. I found your comment helpful and accurate
Is it not possible that a neutral observer tends to not fall for the Sunni-Shiite trap when describing this history? You want him to talk about the “hints” and this and that but then thats like taking sides between either parties and most definitely the other side will have a counter on it.
You’re welcome, brother.
Presenting facts isn’t tantamount to talking sides. You either refute it or acknowledge it. Nothing in between!
@@ahmedabdi3186 Nods and Signals and hearsay do not make for facts. Early Islamic history is usually only available from Islamic sources and hence has always been taken with a pinch of salt
Although there was mistakes about some of events and some personal opinions, yet the amount of time and work spent to make this happen is appreciated.

This content is music to my ears. I saw your video about the history channel and you’re right. It is entertainment, not history. 90% of documentaries of CZcams are also garbage. It is so nice to actually learn about the things I’m interested in as opposed to having smoke blown up my @55.
Well that just happened to you again and you praise it LMAO
This video is literally awful. A lot of the information the person is spewing is out of his ass, not actual historical facts.
@@williamrobert9898😂😂😂😂
Just watched a quarter of this video and while it is very good there are a few mistakes.
1) Muslims did not migrate to abysinnia because of a inter Muslim dispute. They left because there was a genuine fear that the small community would be eliminated because it was only located in Makkah. A few Muslim families moved to abysinnia so that Islam would be preserved.
2) They were lead by Uthman IBN affan ( not IBN mazun) who was from the Ummayad clan but he was also the son in law of the Prophet. The central piece of Islam is believing in the oneness of God and believing Muhammad and other prophets to be messengers and prophets of God. So if you dispute leadership with the Prophet of your time, you are essentially an apostate.
3) after the third battle, the Jews of Banu qurayza were judged by a former ally (Saad IBN muadh) according to the old testament. The punishment for treason in the old testament and Talmudic law was execution for the men and enslavement for women and children.
The previous two tribes were expelled in their entirety from the city. Most of them settled in the oasis of khaybar while a few moved to Syria. From khaybar, they actively participated in the wars against Muslims on the makkan side. They induced Banu qurayza to commit treason.
4) the control of the ka'ba Was not given to the Prophets clan. The keys of the ka'bah were given to an adversary of the Prophet, Uthman IBN talha who then converted to Islam. The keys of the ka'bah are still with this family Banu shayba. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bani_Shaiba
5) in the old testament, there has never been a prophet who has claimed to be the Final Prophet. So no, you haven't heard that before 😊
This dude saying everyone was executed, made my blood boil. He does not fact check before spewing such a blatant lie.
the fact that the basic level 'research' he did totally botched up Muslims going to Ethiopia shows he cobbled this together using google and didn't bother to pick up a Quran and read it for himself OR look at videos by Muslim scholars themselves.
Thank you for your corrections. Watching this as a westerner I could tell he used predominantly western sources and I wish he would have used more middle eastern and Muslim sources. Having read the Quran but by no means an expert I caught many of these differences as well. Perhaps he was only using non-religious sources?
I think the 'last prophet' jab has come from many modern cults with leaders who claim to be the last prophet. Like Moon in Korea claims Jesus got it wrong and he was sent to fix that mistake of love and marriage. Joseph Smith from US Mormonism claimed to be the final prophet because God sent him to correct the mistake in belief that middle America was the real garden of eden. Or John the Baptist from South America who was the last prophet and got acclaim even from people like Oprah and other famous people, he used his fame and control over the cult to sexually assault countless women. David Koresh in Texas called himself the last prophet... the list goes on and on.
As-salamu alaykum my brother, thank you again.
@@josephmatthews7698 The concept of being the "last prophet" did not exist before Prophet Muhammad. All these names you mentioned came after him, not before. It was a completely novel idea in his time. The idea of revelation coming to a halt for all eternity.
Other people saw how popular it was in Islam, and tried using it. All of it can be traced back to Prophet Muhammad. Before him, no recorded man in history had even claimed to be a final messenger. No one of any note anyway.
the notion of some sort of 'final prophet' followed by a smiley face is positively psychotic
I am not so sure about the lack of continuity between the Sassanid and Parthia. empires. It is true that the ruling house was the House of Sassan, but the Parthian aristocratic houses continued to play a prominent role in governing and defending the empire.
As an Iranian, I’m used to both the West and the East getting our history wrong, nevertheless Grant’s knowledge of the region’s history is better than most I’ve seen and heard. Much respect for his work.
6:50 Love the contextualisation with the Himyar and Aksum rivalry as a proxy war of the Roman and Persian as a way of controling trade routes.
Brilliant work. This is an in-depth view of the birth of Islam. My only comment is on the segment where early Muslims emigrated to Ethiopia. It wasn’t by tribal rivalry, but more due to prophet Mohammad’s early experience in trade where he heard of the then king of Ethiopia and hoped to open a branch of Islam there under the protection of said king so the trip (one of two tries to establish Islam in Ethiopia) was ordered by him as a way to ease pressure off his followers and a to divert the effort of Quraich.

It is knowen they were kicked and killed anyway this is one of many sources

@@manofwar2354 sorry I don't even know how that comment was there, my Bad
Mohammed was a moral failure. So what if he was persecuted. Jesus was persecuted….and killed….but Jesus forgave them instead of killing them like Mohammed.
Uthman was one of the closest friend of prophet Mohammad. Multiple of his daughters were married to him and 20:15 as far as I remember the women and childrens were spared and not only that it was seen as one of the lesson from prophet to be kind towards people who aren’t involved in war.
Overall your content is good but I suggest reading multiple sources before making a claim. Anyone who has any prior knowledge or context to Islamic history can easily tell some of the claims are from side x and or y that was made years after the events for different political reasons.
Also two more things:
Tribal structure existed but not monarchy in Arab culture. Islam established meritocracy something which was not well understood by former Sasanid portion of the empire. As we have seen many times in history with many religions that as it travels to different parts of the world it mixes local culture with religious beliefs. That is why most of Ali’s supporters came from the eastern part of the empire and also later those eastern parts became Shia while most of the Arabian peninsula remained Sunni. There are many accounts where Ali didn’t want to be in position of leadership and as mentioned he was young and knew his time would come and as per Arabian culture respected the elders. Many of Ali’s story were later fabricated by Shia to make their believers get pissed at Sunnis and many stories were made up by Sunni sultans and historians to cite reasoning behind why battle with Ali was inevitable. Again reading multiple source would have given you a clearer picture and if you don’t buy either side then you could have cited both saying this is what each side claims which is something many other CZcamsrs do.
Secondly,
Prophet didn’t give the key of Kaba to his tribe for any monarchical structure but rather because of tradition. Also he didn’t give it to his tribe. He gave it to a specific family again because of tradition. Not even Shia scholars dispute that so I don’t know where that claim came from.
On the conquest of Makkah, the Prophet was given the keys to the Kaaba and instead of keeping it in his own possession; he returned them back to the Osman ibn Talha of the Bani Shaiba family. They had been the traditional key keepers of the Kaaba for centuries; and the Prophet confirmed them in that role till the end of time by these words
“Take it, O Bani Talha, eternally up to the Day of Resurrection, and it will not be taken from you unless by an unjust, oppressive tyrant.”
Also for all the criticism I have made I have to thank you for pointing out the hypocrisy of many later Islamic rulers. Forceful conversation certainly happened in places because some religious people go nutts even though forced conversation is strictly prohibited in Islam but majority times Islamic kingdoms didn’t want people to convert to Islam because they couldn’t collect lucrative Jijya tax from non Muslims. There are even cases where Arab Islamic kingdoms told non Arab Muslims that they were not true Muslims since they aren’t Arab therefore Jijya tax was valid upon them. I think some Ottoman Sultans also created laws where your father or grandfather had to be Muslim for you not to pay Jijya tax. It’s ridiculous but hey end of the day money talks for them religion was simply a political tool.
Also funny you mentioned Uthman’s castle as he was filthy rich but lived in a mud hut and had no bodyguards or anyone defending him. He was a great merchant and economic reformer but a terrible ruler. He deserves a lot of criticism but I can clearly see you only read Shia source.
@ali he means Terrible in terms of his policies, not his personality.
I cant imagine how much homework went throughout the making of this video, thank you.
Outstanding Video, a must watch. One of the perspectives this vid brought out was how much impact control of the “Perfume” and the other Trade Roads had on the initial Islamic Wars. I do know that the initial Arab Muslim-Jewish Conflict was from a Muslim perspective, religious, from a Jewish perspective, economic. I don’t think many folks comprehend this.
This was an awesome video very entertaining and informative. I learnt alot
Just found your channel. This is really good! I will definitely share with others.
14:00: your conjecture that there was a ‘rivalry’ of sorts between Muhammad and Uthman rooted in tribalism is totally false. 1 of Prophet Muhammad’s daughters was married to Uthman and when she passed away, another daughter married Uthman. Usually it is the minority (10-15%)of Shias that hold unsavory views of Uthman. Just stating the facts - for the vast majority 85-90% of Muslims Uthman was a very noble companion of the Prophet and the 3rd Caliph after the Prophet Muhammad.
There is a lot of Shia narrative being peddled here. Even though its contested by the majority and was written so far after the actual events and without any evidence that it looses all credibility
The fact that there are so many credible sources of history around, i wonder why he is cherry picking these.
@@pq2552 Shias are 10-15% but non-Islamic sources draw heavily on them for obvious reasons. They know what they are doing and they realize that their agenda is best served by confusing whoever amongst the Muslims they can.
Prophet Muhammad only had one daughter alive and it was Fatima. Why you guys make up so much horse sh** to male you guys look good to cover up your lies? Uthman lanatullah on him did no such thing. Stop talking blasphemy and respect yourself.
@@pq2552 yeah wallahi brothers you figure it out this is just Shia propaganda and some orientalism mixed together to confuse the real muslims

Most of Western academia doesn't have objective research on islam. it's only selective parts of islamic literature fully translated and discussed. Hopefully, in the future, the recent research by muslims and nonmuslims who work with the traditional islamic institutions will give more light into islamic history. For the time being, we're stuck with limited information that the public knows, which isn't much. However I think it's good for us to criticize and it's necessary for channels like these to reach out to religious muslim channels that have connections to a islamic scholarships and find more information instead of relying on the internet-western academics which is very limited about islam.
The problem with Muslim research on Islamic history is if objective facts are in opposition to the religious narrative, fatwas get tossed about and folks end up dead.
Then why are no Muslims translating such documents?
@@oskary2833maybe I'm wrong but as far as i understand it many Muslim don't want translations but rather the original text since things can get lost in translation
@@tomlxyz I believe this is a point but it can be overcome. Also facts and dates don't have this problem.

I mean if you CAN’T do a fair research and get informations from reliable sources why even try to make such video.
translation "This doesn't agree with MY views on islam" lmao islam is truly a pure bastardization of JudeoChristian narratives just surrounding the self important arabs. Arabs are gentiles and therefore covered under the new covenant of Christ. Having a separate religion created to enrich muhammad politically, militarily and wealth wise is just a nice cover story to detract from the clear divide and conquer bloodshed he engaged in. lmao arabs
Only a quarter way through. And so far I'm loving it. Thank you for the video. 🎉 May Allah bless you. ❤
23:22 Muhammad DID NOT give his clan the Bani Hashem the control of Kaaba. In fact after the conquest of Mecca he maintained it under its previous caretaker, the Bani Shaiba. A tradition which still continue until today.

Couple of Yathreb men spoke to Mohammed and liked his massage, became muslim, and agreed to support him. They did not just wanted him to resolve disputes.
14:00 uthman didn’t left bcoz of “tensions with prophet Muhammad ﷺ “ but bcoz of makkan pagans persecution on muslims.

Informative video. Just a suggestion, I think it'd be nice to have dates/timeline along with it.
I'm not Muslim, I'm African based in South Africa. I find it annoying and deceitful that we are constantly bombarded by the Greatness Greek and Roman Empires.

My first reading of the quran was to actually defend islam from people saying it was a violent religion, i had read the rubaiyat of omar khayyam which i respected, but it was so SO much worse and with the second reading my impression got even worse. i had to stop on my third to not effect my relationships with hereditary muslims friends. its shocking how many people can read such horrific edicts and say "yep, that's for me". there is a reason it wants and needs it's members to kill apostates, those who learned arabic enough to read the quran or a translation into their native language and discovered what it says, or they read another book that shows one how to have a deep, life changing religious experience with the actual God over all, and islam cannot have pointing out things that are blatantly obvious to non muslims. i pray and hope people break free of their imposed religions, all religions, if one doesn't free themselves form their parents and their cultures religion they have no true faith. you would be a Hindu if born in India, or Atheist if born in a communist country until one breaks free of what happened by the chance of birth. only when you start fresh can one truly find God. before one breaks free you are just blindly pushing the given ideology of that region or family that was pushed onto them, which was pushed onto them, and so on and so on, and you never truly experience God in a meaningful way.
This content is just horrendous .Most of the sources are bias with many western interpretation .If you are not able to comprehend such events do not give your interpretations on them , your ideals should not be implemented on history .History is unique because of the different situations faced and different ways acted upon them .Some events are fabricated while others are misunderstood if not understood at all .Take the knowledge from its source , and I am sure that most of the true Arab Muslims sources were ignored for some reason or another .Editing although a great one wont improve your credibility .
Islamic historians will always praise and tell good things about islam therefore it's biased and not reliable imagine i explain ww2 by a nazi perspective would this be reliable?

Also I find it funny how you guys are also offended that the video portrays Shia Muslims in a positive light, as if Sunni’s always have to be good in order for you to be appeased. You are pathetic
Why do you come to the casual historian and expect perfection ? It’s casual for a reason to hear his thoughts
@CasualHistorian I have a problem with the title, it was an Arab khalifate when Islam was inside of Arabia but as soon as it inherited the Byzantine and Persian Empires it became a multi-ethnic empire. The Arabs consisted of 5% of the entire Ummayads Empire The subjects were Persians, Romans, Jews, Coptics, Berbers, Visgoth etc it's like calling USA an English empire just because the 13 states started of English and speak English doesn't make the USA an English empire. Or calling South America a Spanish empire
But that’s exactly what you would call them.. the colonies were part of the British Empire and Latin America was definitely part of the Spanish Empirical system for much of their recent history. Demographics are irrelevant when talking about the identity of the Empire when the leadership, language and religion is so entrenched in Arab culture. The Roman Empire had ethnic Roman’s as a minority, so did the British Empire. Any problems with calling it an Arab Empire stems from Crusade-era Arab hate or a misunderstanding of the concept of an expansionist Empire. Logically, the more an Empire grows, the more ethnically diverse it will become and thus the governing party will occupy an increasingly smaller minority.
Sorry dear you erred here 14:00 Prophet Muhammad PBUH ordered his followers in 5th Year of Preaching of Islam to migrate to Ethopia (Negus was a just ruler)...Usman Rz. was son in law of Prophet Muhammad PBUH (two daughters one died then married another daughter)....so no question of rivalry
It would be much better to refer to the Caliphates as 'Islamic' and not 'Arab.'
EDIT: Since there have been quite a few people disagreeing with me about what I said in my original comment, I thought I'd elaborate a bit and explain the reasons behind my claim.
During the Umayyad period the head of the state (the Caliph) was obviously an Arab, and the military was almost exclusively comprised of Arabs; but the artisans, the architects, and the administrative body of the caliphate were definitely comprised of non-Arabs (mostly Syrians at the heart of the caliphate, and Persians and Assyrians further east.)
During the Abbasid period the role of the Arabs was reduced to a marginal one. The administrative body was overwhelmingly Persian. Almost all the viziers that served the Abbasid caliphs were of Persian background, and as you may know, most political and administrative decisions were made by the vizier and not the caliph. The legendary capital city of the Abbasid caliphate-Baghdad, which means 'God-given' in Persian-was built by two Persian architects. The scientific, literary, scholarly, and artistic scenery of Abbasid society-especially but not only in the east and the 'heartlands'-was overrun by Persians; although other minorites also played an important role, namely Jews and Assyrians.
Regarding the Abbasid military, it was initially run by and extremely reliant on Persians, since Persians were the main backers of the Abbasid Revolution. As the Abbasids strengthened their hold onto power they sought to distance themselves from the Persians and reduce their reliance on them; so they replaced a large number of Persians in their military with Arabs (even going as far as executing some of their high ranking Persian military personnel). Later on Turks came along and now they were the main players in Abbasid military.
So as you can see, the two big caliphates in Islamic history can't really be considered 'Arab.'
I think he's trying to differentiate them from the ottomans and almohads who were non Arab ruled .
Hashimites were strong
Why not?
@@user-fg3gl6hf6h because Persians and many more were a big part of the empire, and the rasuul said we are all Muslims we don’t go by race and there’s no difference between us
They were arab tho.....
I am form Makkah And I know that Hashemi Clan is the most powerfull clan in Makkah even before islam Also there no think name Umayya clan before islam
there clan name Abd Shams ibn Abd Manaf which is you think is Umayya clan Which is weaker than Hashemi clan however there is clan that is almost as powerful as Hashemi clan Which is Banu Makhzum clan And the reason why those clans did not kill the prophet Because of the power of Hashemi clan also the reason why those clan fight the islam is becouse they was very competitors with Hashemi clan
Hashim & Abd Shams are sons of Abd Manaf, the umayyads come from umayyah ibn abd shams through Muawiyah and his father Abu Sufyan (son of umayyah), by the time of prophet muhammad pbuh the umayyads weren't a clan, but a subclan within Abd Shams, just like there was no Abbasid clan till 8th century and they are a continuation of Hashimid clan

You know the Old Testament (the Torah) never contradicts itself
Your respectful explanation , earned you my respect
You are so underrated.
You misspelled overrated
Where did you you get the story about rivalry between uthman ra and the Prophet saws
It's the reason we have shia and sunna.
The rivalry is not between uthman and prophet where as it was between the clans@@B0Sajwah
your explanation of umar's story of conversion to islam is pathetic sorry to say but i've never heard anyone explain it so wrongly and badly his conversion to islam wasn't a small matter the way to treated it, should've given more details
This video is great, any book recommendations to learn more about this?
He is the clear reason why ulema says to not take ilm from kuffar.

❌❌❌Unfortunately, you disappointed me because of the false historical information you provided. It seems to me clearly that you adopted the Shiite narrative of the history of Islam, even though the Shiites themselves admit that the history they wrote was not based on rules and principles that distinguish between true and false narratives. As for the Sunnis, they are the ones who established the rules of history science to ensure that The authenticity of the narrations that mention to them the story of the Prophet, his companions, and his wives, and they called it “Ilm al-Jarh and al-Ta’deel” or “the science of hadith.” If these rules are applied to the narrations you mentioned, such as: Aisha hated Ali and that the Umayyads disobeyed the Prophet and migrated to Abyssinia and that Omar broke into Ali’s house and broke The hand of Fatima..etc. You will find that it is all false and with the recognition of some Shiite scholars
1 also that yazid faced off hussein when it was khufa's own people, who betrayed their bayyah on hussein and obeyed the newly appointed governer of khufa, who martyred hussein.
2 52:18 he says al mamun followed his father on the matter of "creation of qur'an" which is false as Harun Al Rashid was against this ideology and severely worked against it while al mamun went off of his father's way of treating these people called "Mu'tazila".
You're talking nonsense now. It's already recorded in history that "your people" are greedy and traitors to Islam. So the battle of the camel didn't happen? Prophet Muhammad's family meant nothing to Islam? Only matters as long as your beloved "companions" are good whether killing his (Muhammad) family and oppressing them. Enough is enough with your false information.

@@omarshaghlil1699 Islamic sources or historical sources?
id reccomend you listen to yasir qahdi seerah of the prophet or read martin lings book. This video is filled to the brim with misinformation and reeks of the typical rhetoric of 1970s orientalist viewpoints, which are mostly rejected by mainstream academic historians today.
I need to watch/listen to this one one more time
I quit listening because of background music
I watched about 25 minutes of the video and there were quite a few things that you misunderstood. It would've been good to do research on what Islam says about these things.
1) Aisha (RA) and Ali (RA) never had any hatred for each other. In fact (Chapter 24 verses 11 to 18) are the verses that were revealed to clear Aisha (RA). There was never any issue between them. In fact, there is a narration that the Prophet (SAW) said to Ali (RA) that there will be a problem between you and Aisha. Ali was shocked and he said "Then I must have a really horrible end" and the prophet (SAW) told him "no, but if it does happen then return her to the safety of her home".
This is why later on, when the Muslims were fighting and Aisha and Ali were on opposite sides, Ali sent a group of his people to protect Aisha and take her back home safely.
2) The reason why Quraish never wanted Islam to prevail is because they could never understand the catch to it. Most of the time when someone called others to something, it was so they could become rich or become a leader but the prophet (SAW) was calling people to worship their lord and be kind to others, he was teaching them to have good character.
3) The prophet (SAW) was teaching Islam to close family and friends for a while before a chapter in the Quran was revealed to him to spread Islam in public: (Chapter 74)
4) Abu Bakr (RA) became the leader of the Muslims after prophet Muhammad (SAW) passed away. This is because when the Prophet (SAW) was sick and couldn't lead one of the prayers, Abu Bakr was the one that was asked to lead. The companions of the Prophet (SAW) said "if Abu Bakr was allowed to lead the prayer while the prophet (SAW) was alive, then he should be the one that leads us after the prophet (SAW) passed away.
5) The Muslims migrated to Abyssinia because they were being oppressed in Mecca. The prophet (SAW) told them to go there because there was a king who was a just leader who might have let them live there peacefully. It was nothing to do with spreading Islam there or trade relations. In fact, they spoke with each other about the story of Prophet eesa (AS), what the Christians believed about him and what the Muslims believed. I think , eventually, the king of Abyssinia became a Muslim I believe.
6) No one claimed to be the final prophet before this, that's why in Islam, the first pillar in Islam is to testify that Allah is the only god and that Muhammad is the last messenger.
Very well put togeather. A lot of effort and due diligence put into this video. Alhamdulillah.
In general, you are close to being right, but there are details that you undoubtedly made a mistake in, perhaps due to the similarity of names or foreign sources, not Arabic…
Can you tell us, how often did we hear from a prophet that he is the last? I cant remember one. Although you sarcasticly implied this.
Very nicely put with the help of graphics etc etc

If you aren't a Muslim, then you shouldn't be calling Muhammed "the Prophet".
Min 10 again .. prophet mohamed peace be upon him was known for his honesty and trust as he was nicknamed the honest and trustworthy and because of that he was approached by khadija to take her money and trade with it and he then became a trader and after he came back she called him to marriage because of those traits .. not negotiation skills ..
26:57 you are actually wrong if you look deeper into the history of the Prophet, at one point under a palm tree he calls Ali up and holds his hands in the air saying this person is my successor
Shia😂
@@KyleM1220 well done for realising
nope
Hm well we have different beliefs
Why did the prophet insist on abu bakr leading the prayer when he was on his death bed?
1. Banu Hashim, the tribe that Muhammad descends from, wasn't a lesser clan, it was among the most well known clans for their honesty in business and their lineage that goes back to the.patriarch prophet Ishmael. When Muhammad's Arab enemies were asked by King Heraclius whether Muhammad descended from a good enough nobility to even claim prophethood, the Arabs confessed that Banu Hashim was a noble family.
2. Muhammad's beloved companion Uthman did not go to Ethiopia because he was a rival of Muhammad, who saw his Ummayad tribe as being better than Banu Hashim (why even allege that?). It is quite known to historians that many of the elderly, women and young Muslims had to seek asylum in Ethiopia at that time and that the Axum King Najashi himself gave shelter to them because they were being persecuted in Mecca.
3. @21:36 Did Muhammad end up being the last most successful prophet with a world fellowship of over 1 billion adherants worldwide? Name another person since his birth who has managed a prophethood that is as well known and relevant in today's discourses?
4. Whatever infighting that many westerners think existed between the family of Aisha and the family of Ali was non-existent when Aisha's assembled army met the assembled army of Ali to join forces against the army of Muawiya, when it was Ali's turn to be the Caliph, because they are both considered 'Ahl El Beit' members of the family, of the same house. The problem was that there were Khawarij installed in both armies and they're the ones who wanted to raise tensions and sow dishonor in the ranks after the death of Uthman.
Ali was 4th in line after the prophet Muhammad pbuh and he wouldnt have humbly accepted each time, first with Abu Bakr, and then 2nd to Omar, 3rd to Uthman, if he didn't respect and love those companions, who he had been in many battles with him side by side. Some of them becoming relatives to Ali through their intermarriages with the Prophet's daughters.
Thank you for correcting him. His Uthman comments on rivalry sounded so wrong.
How many converted out of fear and lack of options?
@@shayalynn How many convert till this day because they love the history and impact of Prophet Muhammad's life? May peace be forever upon him.
No other figure in history has been as successful with their message being as widespread as Muhammad. Fear of a person doesn't last beyond that person's lifetime, the same way love of that person does.
14:13 The ones who stayed in Mecca were in for more hard times" isn't it easier to accept some moved to Ethiopia due to the hard times and not because of sectarianism?
It’s kind of strange that they didn’t follow the direct descendants of their prophet.
prophet or messenger of God is not a king, he even sternly told to the public that if fathimah( his most beloved daughter) steal, even she cannot escape punishment*
*cut off the hand if the stealer is capable to work for money and if the amount stolen is more than 1/4 dinar
added to that, his descendants themselves don't like to be in power
the more fanatics groups are their extreme admirers, some love them, but some just use their(prophet's family) for political gain
Well the Shi'ites did.
Why should they? There's no guarantee that one of certain lineage is inherently the best for governance, and they didn't believe them to be infallible like the Shi'as made up and claimed to believe.
I think there's confusion here, christianity was mostly spread by roman decree rather than organically.
They choose Ethiopia because the cristian leader was a good ruler and the prophet Mohammad pbuh told them so, so they don’t get killed by the idol worshiper. Later on the ruler there become a Muslim.

Err, you are accepting the Islamic narrative, but historians have shown that Islam was concocted by Arab warlords after they had conquered the Persian and Roman lands. Historians do not deny Mohammed was a historical figure, but reports of him are around 670, 30 years after his supposed death. But there is a reason for that - MOhammed had to be dead so that the empire was won as a result of Islam, not the opposite.
I just found your channel and I am looking forward to viewing more videos. Do you have any recommendations for books on medical history and occult/ spiritualism history? I'd love to hear.

The problem with these sorts of videos are that there are big chunks of history left out and blanket statements are made without context.

Love these videos
History would 100% different if the Sassanian emperor accepted peace treaty, No Shia, No central Asian wars, No secret cults and most likely Constantinople and Rome would be conquered, if only that happened but it was destined by god
Tbf the standard narrative is that crypto Jews who converted for social mobility and were resentful of the Arab conquests helped start Shi'a beliefs of the family being the rightful rulers and borderline demigods .
Persian werent shia anyway so u are wronh
20:15 All the remaining people were not killed. The women and children were spared.
Lots of errors in the video i stopped watching when u brought Muawiya in the picture
It wasn’t Muawiya that plagiarized the notes
It was another cousin in Medina named Marwan ibn Hakim who stamped it on behalf of Uthman because he marwan was protecting his cousin who was ruling in Egypt
You see what happened was marwan was the one who would stamp notes on behalf of Uthman with his permission
But when marwan saw the angry rebels from Egypt visit Uthman his cousin he sent an envoy to his cousin ruling Egypt about the situation and to kill the rebels who come back to Egypt
But uthman was compliant to the protestors so what he did was acknowledge there demands which you mentioned
But by than Marwan has already sent the envoy which h to e rebels actually intercepted on their way back to Egypt
So the rebels understandably thought this was uthmans work
Muawiya wasn’t part of the corruption as a matter of fact his governance in Syria paid off because he was well respected and loved
Judaism was first! And Islam came from it but corrupted it
They call it arab caliphate becous they dont like to hear Islamic caliphates 🤣🤣

Hello how are you.
I understand you but in our religion in Islam their is nothing called Arab caliphate or Turkish caliphate.
I dont know if you are Muslim but our religion learn us Islamic Caliphates thats our religion we dont care about if the Muslim leader(Caliphate) is arab our not as long he follow Quran and sunnah.
I know as Muslim this youtube channel owner dont want say Islamic Caliphates thats why they chose to say arab Caliphates🤣.
Our dear Prophet peace be upon him teached us that we Muslims are brothers and arab is not better than none arab and so on.
Alhamdulilah for Islam and the Muslim Caliphates will come Insha Allah soon our later thats is in our Islamic teaching.
We Muslims take our evidence frome Quran and Sunnah the teachings off our beloved Prophet peace be upon him.
Media is devil like this youtube channel owner who change the name off Islamic Caliphates to Arab caliphates 🤣
This youtube owner calls for race, color and we call for Islam that is the difference.
Thank you for your response I see you as Respectful person although I dont know your religion.
Alhamdulilah we are Muslims.
Peace.
Despite the fact that most of this video is balanced, there are pivotal errors like claiming Uthman left Makkah for Ethipioa due to rivalry with the Prophet (SAW), which is incorrect. A daughter of the Prophet married Uthman, and after her death, he remarried another daughter of the Prophet who also passed away. The Prophet Muhammad told him that he would gladly give him another daughter if he had any other left (they weren't forced marriages, forced marriages are not permitted by Islam).
Furthermore, you stated that the last Jewish clan of Medica was wiped out after the Makkans failed to conquer Medina. How do nations deal with their traitors up to this very day in 2023? I'll say no more.
That a treaty was ever established in the first place is very disputed.
The prophet was born in 570 in the same year a christian army failed attack on a undefended Mecca, rewind 500 year to year 70, the romans attack against Jerusalem which was well defended but failed to keep them out.
Nothing about Alandalus caliphate?
He's talking about the Arabian caliphates
Arab ruled Alandalus during the Umayyad
Thanks for putting the time and effort into telling as much all sides as possible, Most of Arab or Muslims wouldn't know that much.
Thanks again
You are a bit basied and doesn't give full picture in terms of first 80 years. Also you didn't mention Arius and Athanasius thing in Christianity.
Thanks. We were never taught how ugly the rivalry for caliphate throne was after Prophet Muhammad died.
*15 Astonishing facts About Islam That you Really don't know !*
*1)* *“Islam” means “surrender” or “submission”* . “Salam” (which means “peace”) is the root word of “Islam”. In a religious context the word “Islam” means “the surrendering of one’s will (without compulsion) to the true will of God in an effort to achieve peace”.
*2)* *“Muslim” means “anyone or anything that surrenders itself to the true will of God”.* By this definition, everything in nature (trees, animals, planets, etc.) are “muslims” because they are in a state of surrender to God’s will. In other words, they are fulfilling the purpose for which God created them.
*3)* *Islam is not a new religion or cult.* It is a universal way of life and civilization. *Again, Islam is not a new religion,* rather it is the same message preached by all earlier prophets such as Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, and Jesus (peace be upon them all). But God’s final message to mankind was revealed to the last prophet, Muhammad (peace be upon him), as a revival of lost teachings of previous prophets and as a reconfirmation of the eternal message. Studies show that between 1.5 and 1.8 billion people in the world identify their religion as Islam. Along with Judaism and Christianity it traces its roots through Prophet Abraham and back to the first humans Adam and Eve.
*4)* *There are five pillars of practice in Islam.* These practices must be undertaken with the best of effort in order to be considered a true Muslim: A) Declaration of faith: A statement proclaiming the belief in One God and that Muhammad is a prophet of God. To become Muslim a person simply recites this statement publicly, and in Arabic. B) Formal prayer five times a day. C) Poor-due tax: 2.5% of one’s excess wealth given to the needy once a year. D) Fasting during the daylight hours in the month of Ramadan. E) Pilgrimage to Mecca at least once, if physically and financially able.
*5)* *There are six articles of faith in Islam.* These are the basic beliefs that one must have in order to be considered a true Muslim. They are belief in: A) the One God. B) all of the true prophets of God. C) the original scriptures revealed to Moses, David, Jesus and Muhammad. D) the angels. E) the Day of Judgment and the Hereafter. F) destiny.
*6)* *Muslims believe in the one Creator of the Universe, referring to Him as “Allah”* which is the Arabic word for “God”. Muslims worldwide, even English-speaking Muslims, frequently use the Arabic word “Allah” because Arabic is the language of the Qur’an. But Allah is no different than the God of Abraham, Moses and Jesus. The Creator is the Creator regardless of what people call Him. In the English language He is most commonly referred to as “God”. Yet Jesus spoke a different language, referring to God as “Eloi” in Mark 15:34 of the New Testament. Are “God” and “Eloi” different gods? Many Hispanics call God “Dios” and many French say “Dieu”. It would logically follow then that people who refer to God as “Allah” in the Arabic language are referring to the very same God. In fact, many Arab Jews and Arab Christians call God “Allah”. And the word “Allah” is written in Arabic script on the walls of many Arab churches and on the pages of Arabic Bibles. So while the understanding of God may differ between faith groups, the various names used to describe Him does not change the fact that the one Creator of the Universe is the God of all people.
This is *Allah* Almighty, The Creator, the one and only true God. He is my God, our God:
*"Allah - there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of [all] existence. Neither drowsiness overtakes Him nor sleep. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is [presently] before them and what will be after them, and they encompass not a thing of His knowledge except for what He wills. His Kursi (Throne) extends over the heavens and the earth, and their preservation tires Him not. And He is the Most High, the Most Great."*
(Quran 2:255)
*{Say, “He is Allah, the One. Allah, to Whom the creatures turn for their needs. He begets not, nor was He begotten, and there is none like Him.” }*
(Quran, 112:1-4)
Allah Almighty says in the Quran:
*"Say, "O My servants who have transgressed against themselves [by sinning], do not despair of the mercy of Allah . Indeed, Allah forgives all sins. Indeed, it is He who is the Forgiving, the Merciful."*
[Quran 39:53]
*7)* *The Islamic concept of God* is that He is loving, merciful and compassionate. Islam also teaches that He is all-knowing and the perfect judge of affairs, and will punish (or forgive) accordingly. However, Allah once said to Muhammad, “My mercy prevails over my wrath”. So Islam teaches a balance between fear and hope, protecting one from both complacency and despair.
*8)* *Muslims believe that God has revealed 99 of His names, or attributes, in the Qur’an.* It is through these names that one can come to know the Creator. A few of these names are the All-Merciful, the All-Knower, the Protector, the Provider, the Near, the First, the Last, the Hidden and the Source of All Peace.
*9)* *The Christian concept of “vicarious atonement” (the idea that Jesus died for the sins of humanity) is alien to the Islamic concept of personal responsibility.* Islam teaches that on the Day of Judgment every person will be resurrected and will be accountable to God for their every word and deed. Consequently, a practicing Muslim is always striving to be righteous while hoping and praying for God’s acceptance and grace.
*10)* *Muslims believe in all of the true prophets* that preceded Muhammad, from Adam to Jesus. Muslims believe they brought the same message of voluntarily surrendering to God’s will (islam, in a generic sense) to different peoples at different times. Muslims also believe they were “muslims” (again, in a generic sense) since they followed God’s true guidance and surrendered their will to Him.
*11)* *Muslims neither worship Muhammad nor pray through him.* Muslims worship the Unseen, Omniscient Creator, Allah.
*12)* *Muslims accept the original unaltered Torah (as revealed to Moses) and the original unaltered Bible (as revealed to Jesus)* since they were revealed by God. But none of these scriptures exist today in their original form or in their entirety. Therefore, Muslims follow the subsequent, final and preserved revelation of God, the Qur’an.
*13)* *The Qur’an was not authored by Muhammad.* It was authored by God, revealed to Muhammad (through angel Gabriel) and written into physical form by his companions.
*14)* *The original Arabic text of the Qur’an contains no flaws or contradictions* and has not been altered since its revelation.
*15)* *Actual 7th century Qur’ans, complete and intact,* are on display in museums in Turkey and other places around the world.

Islam with its universal concept of brotherhood rejects all artificial and man-made marks of distinction.

*(Quran 49:13)*
No one can claim any superiority over the other based on race, color, language or wealth and this is emphasized in the last sermon of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) showing high regard of humanity irrespective of color or race:
"“All mankind is from Adam and Eve, an Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a white has no superiority over a black nor does a black have any superiority over a white except by piety and good action.”
🔹️ *How to convert (revert) to Islam*
Basically to become a Muslim is very simple.. you need to say the decleration of faith oraly while you believe in it by heart with a firm conviction and unshakeable faith.
*The decleration of Faith in Islam (The Shahada)*
The Shahada (in Arabic) can be declared as follows :
*“ASH-HADU ANLA ELAHA ILLA-ALLAH WA ASH-HADU ANNA MOHAMMADAN RASUL-ALLAH”*
The English translation is :
*“I bear witness that there is no deity (none truly to be worshipped) but, Allah, and I bear witness that Mohammad is the messenger of Allah.”*
However, it would not be sufficient for anyone to only utter this testimony oraly either in private or in public; but rather, he should believe in it by heart with a firm conviction and unshakeable faith. If one is truly sincere and complies with the teachings of Islam in all his life, he will find himself a new born person.

How can Yawheh and Allah be the same when the former has very different standards from the latter? Yawheh says that without the shedding of blood, there can be no remission of sins. Muslims insist that Allah can give his servants "grace" and "forgiveness" without needing a sacrifice at all.

You disbelieve jesus. Jesus spoke Aramaic. *What name/word did Jesus use for God in Aramaic?* 🤔 👇
Read with an open mind and sincere heart: It is generally agreed by historians that Jesus and his disciples primarily spoke Aramaic (Jewish Palestinian Aramaic), the common language of Judea in the first century AD. 👇
*What word did Jesus use for God in Aramaic?*
It is *Aalah* (also it is Alaha) 👇👇
Note that in Arabic sometimes it is pronounced *Allah* (اللهْ), sometimes *Allaha* (َالله), sometimes *Allahi* (اللهِ), and someties *Allahu* (اللهُ). It depends on its location in the sentence. Using different vowels at end of the name. Vowels in Arabic look like dashes and symbols above or below the Arabic Letters.
*Arabic-speakers of all Abrahamic faiths, including Christians and Jews, use the word "Allah" to mean "God". The Christian Arabs of today have no other word for "God" than "Allah".*
Jesus spoke Aramaic.
Now, answer: *what name Jesus used for God?*
@@SA-Arabia You already lost the argument. I've already proven with BASIC common sense, which is what you should be using, that the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is not the god of Islam. You don't get to dance around that subject. And I can tell you for a fact that in Galilaic Aramaic, the specific language and dialect Jesus spoke, he didn't use the word "Allah". He used the term "Elei" when referring to the God of the Hebrews.
"Elei, Elei, lema sabachthani?"
Ring any bells? Furthermore, even IF Jesus did use the word "Allah", why does that matter? Do you even speak Arabic well?? Any Arabic speaker knows that "Allah" isn't a name like "Yawheh". It's just like saying "god" with an uppercase "G". But please think about this if you forget everything else I'm trying to say: Why did Allah claim to be the god of the ancient Israelites, all while still calling himself "God"? The God of Israel already revealed Himself THOUSANDS of years before Muhammad was even a twinkle in history's eye as YAWHEH, THE GREAT I AM.

@@SA-ArabiaWHY do I waste my time with you? You're just saying "God is God" LMAO. The Jews have their God already. Which one are you referring to, and how do you know he is the one true deity if you don't even know for sure whether Muhammad was telling the truth or not? Or even if that angell he saw was really an angel or demon?
"And little wonder, for Satan himself can disguise himself as an angel of light"--Paul the Apostle.
Good video. Just one question. You refer to the people as Turks many times throughout the video. At this time (800-1100), where would the people group known as the Turks be from? Present Kurdistan? Caucus? Present day Turkmenistan?
I got ya brother! Yes, at this time period the Turkic people's would be inhabiting modern Turkmenistan and the surrounding area within Central/Central-East/Central-South Asia and would make a huge migration to Anatolia, pushing back and taking over the Roman lands.
Never gonna work out for these guys til they chill out
Islam has it’s own video 😉👍
It contains alot of mistakes 😅
Not everything will be perfect. That’s why doing your own research is just as important as seeing videos like these
Zero mistakes. You are the mistake.
History of religion is so interesting. It's usually about the power and ambition of men, and has very little to do with God.
it's interesting when Jesus Christ was fasting the devil took him to a mountiain and said look out, i will give you all these kingdoms if you worship me, He refused. It seems like Mohamed was taken to the same mountain was was like "yep, lets start killing, i want my empire". no wonder islam is desperate to say the bible was corrupted since it makes them look very bad. the dead sea scrolls prove the accuracy of the bible, you can choose to believe or not, but we can't say what is in the Christian Bible is not copied accurately all the way back to the time of Christ.
Thank You for the Scholarly Historical video!!!!
13:40 ... wth was that, where did you get that from? Uncle Tom?
bro you lck research and proper understanding and details for example you said it's not sure why some early muslims migrated to ethiopia well it's a commonly know fact that they did this on the instructions of muhammad (saww) he said there's a just king in abyssinia that's why they emigrated there
We’re dealing with fact here, not made up religious fantasy.
Wth ! 20 minutes in and my ears are hurting from all the lies and the distortion of historical events...
Good thing you didn't point not a single one mistake so we don't know what you mean
you know Thafer Yousef???? I love the guy's music!!
Also one of my favorite pieces for Yanni, I loved the video for the music, but it's safe to say that there are inaccuracies
The early migration to Abyssinia was to avoid persecution in Makkah. There was no conflict or animosity.
The reports about Ali laying is the bed of the prophet appear to be fabrications.
There is not a single authentic Shia report of Umar striking Fatimah. Shia reports are not even considered to be historically valid, but even from shia ahadeeth, the story of Umar striking Fatimah is absolutely baseless. Ali did not resist the accession of Abu Bakr in any way. There was no animosity between Ali and Aisha.
29:03
The other candidates were Zubair ibn al-Awwam, Talha ibn Ubaidillah, Abdurahman ibn Auf and Sa’ad ibn Abi Waqqas. Umar’s son Abdullah was also present but not as a candidate.
Ali wished to restabalise the Caliphate before dealing with the killers of Uthman. Mu’awiyah recognised Ali as legitimate but disagreed with him and withheld his allegiance to until the killers of Uthman were punished.
Just to clear please get your sources right firstly. Take it as a request
There has been no tension between hazrat Ali, prophets wife Aisha (RA), Hazrat abu bakr and hazrat Umar. And Hazrat Fatima was not pregnant as you stated at (25:42).
Hazrat ali named some of his sons after hazrat Umar and Hazrat Abu bakr.
The daughter of Hazrat Ali and Hazrat Fatima “um kuthum bint ali” was even married to Hazrat Umar.
There was just a small misunderstanding that happened between Hazrat Aisha and Hazrat Ali when Hazrat usman was martyred and Hazrat Ayesha was asking for revenge but Hazrat Ali wanted to stop all the fighting within the Muslims that where happening because of the khawarij.
The Riverly was not between Prophet Mohammed and Othman it was another more powerful Umayyad Abo Sufyan
Great job! I am not muslim (neither intended to) so just want to learn a little bit more about the topic ...
Only thing I don't understand about what you're talking about. That. You're not putting no dates and no names on your map.
You really had to shadowban my friend epsilon even though he never insulted you. Unsubbed. What a petty guy.
As a Muslim i laughed at this video. Please learn about Islamic history before you act like an expert because your bias is seeping through heavily. Cheers mate
