Thank you Dr. Henry for taking us back in 7th century history. I am a muslim but I am not religious blind. I am open to learn new things whether it is religious or social matter. Please enroch us with your vast knowledge. As a muslim I feel a connection among us, the muslim, jews and Christian .
Can anyone help me with this question. I visited Jerusalem in 2018 and was told that when Omar came to Jerusalem there were no Jews there because they’d been expelled by 5he Christians for siding with the Persians. I was told two conflicting stories, 1 Omar agreed to honour the Christian ban on Jews not being allowed in to Jerusalem. 2 I was also told he was so shocked there were no Jews in Jerusalem that he immediately arranged for seventy Jewish families to be settled in Jerusalem. Which story is correct?
More than likely the second, because when the Crusaders took Jerusalem, it was said that they put each man, woman and child and even livestock to the sword. But which ruler the second story is alluding to, I can't say.
As a Muslim, I really respect your knowledge and neutrality. I'm so happy to learn from your lectures. I hope we can always find common grounds and unite under one true God of Abraham. Thank you for your efforts
Prohibition against building new churches, places of worship, monasteries, or a new cell. (Hence it was also forbidden to build new synagogues. It is known that new synagogues were only built after the occupation of Islam, for example in Jerusalem and Ramle. A similar law, prohibiting the building of new synagogues, existed in the Byzantines, and was therefore not new for all Jews. It was new for the Christians.) Prohibition against rebuilding destroyed churches, by day or night, in their own neighbourhoods or those situated in Muslim quarters. The places of worship of non-Muslims must be lower in elevation than the lowest mosque in town. The houses of non-Muslims must not be taller in elevation than the houses of Muslims. Prohibition against hanging a cross on the outside of Churches. Muslims should be allowed to enter Churches (for shelter) at any time, both day and night. Obliging the call to prayer by a bell or a kind of Gong (Nakos) to be low in volume. Prohibition against Christians and Jews raising their voices at prayer times. Prohibition against teaching non-Muslim children the Qur'an. Christians forbidden to publicly display their religion, or to be seen with Christian books or symbols in public, on the roads or in the markets of the Muslims. Palm Sunday and Easter parades were banned. Funerals to be conducted quietly. Prohibition against burying non-Muslim dead near Muslims. Prohibition against raising a pig next to a Muslims neighbour.

As a Muslim, I would like to correct you that the People of the Book are only Jews and Christians only, there are no Hindus or Zoroastrians. People of the Book have special treatment and even special protection from the state I would like to thank you for bringing up these wonderful topics. We are just here to learn from each other
As a Muslim, I'd like to correct you that in some contexts Zoroastrians and Hindus were in dhimmi status by Islamic scholars. If you'd like to know more, do research the conquest of Persia for Zoroastrians, and Mughals for Hindus's status.
@@fajranshams1971 You can't argue with scholars with such examples. Prophet allowed Christians to worship in the Masjid because they needed to, do we allow them now?
Good day Sir, what is your opinion about Gulf States such as UAE and Saudi Arabia trying to encourage Jews to come. I grew up in Uzbekistan and the Muslims were very welcoming. The Bukhara Khanate had a lot of Jews that were in central Asia then the WW2 evacuation.
Rabbi, do we have any writings from the Jews of Arabia themselves? Any indication of their lineage or history of their migration? Is it known whether they had exposure to the Talmud either before or after the appearance of Islam? Sorry about all the questions but this niche of our history has been quite vague to me and is most fascinating. I have just recently discovered your RUclips lectures. As a student of the history of the Levant I thoroughly enjoy your perspective as well as your delivery of the subject matter. Thank you.
He’s not a rabbi but a historian, FYI. I found an interesting article that suggests the Jews of Arabia might have come in part from Sadducean and other Jews emigrating from Israel after the destruction of the Temple and after the Bar Kochba revolt. It also suggests that-contrary to popular belief-a plurality of Jews continued to live in Israel for hundreds of years after Bar Kochba’s defeat, even as diaspora communities of Jews in Arabia and elsewhere were growing. academia.edu/resource/work/44079992
@@HenryAbramsonPhD Have you ever thought about doing a video on Jews that thrived under Christendom in the Middle ages. I always hear people talking about how Jews were persecuted under Christendom in the Middle ages and they're certainly was a lot of that. But that wasn't the case in all countries at all times. For instance Catholic Spain for a while was quite hospitable to Jews. I was wondering if you could do a video on this
Not an expert in Sunna and Shia Islam, but my understanding is that the dhimmi laws are the same. Note however that there is significant regional difference, and at different periods of time.
I don't think they would recognise anything even mildly related to Hazrat Omar. Even tjo the pact wasn't made by him but i don't think shias would recognise it as they only recognise one caliph Hazrat Ali , not the first 3.
Sorry Rabbi, but you got the wrong Umar. The second Caliph was Uman ibn Khatab, who was a major companion of the Prophet. Umar ibn Abdul Azziz was a much later leader from a different generation.
Could you comment on the Teaching of Jacob? Some scholars think that it shows a really close relationship of Islam and Judaism but it seems like those scholars are making a lot out of very little.
You say “only repair of existing” regarding religious structures. Though in Islamic sources, even this was not allowed. Or was this only in Syrian Christiaan pact? “We made a condition on ourselves that we will neither erect in our areas a monastery, church, or a sanctuary for a monk, nor restore any place of worship that needs restoration”
I really don’t understand how you can bring this so positive and say “Jews were happy with this.” If you look at the pact, it’s so humilating… For example Jews/Christians had to stand up when a Muslim arrived and have him sit… 🤨
Plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose… In 2019, the Province of Quebec passed a law prohibiting public servants from wearing religious symbols, so now it’s illegal to wear a yarmulke while teaching at a public school or university, or while working in a public hospital, for example. A few years earlier, the Montreal borough of Outremont-home to Canada’s biggest Hasidic community-prohibited all street processions in order to prevent a planned Skverer event from going ahead, and changed its zoning bylaw to prevent a proposed shul expansion. I’m ashamed to say that antisemitism is alive and well in my hometown, and that Canada’s federal government is doing nothing to fight it, for fear of offending Quebec voters, who obviously support such measures, given that they just re-elected the premier with a solid majority.
Omar was the brother in law of the Exilarch. He gave to Bostenai the daughter of the Persian king he conquered , he also married one of them . Imagine the irony of it the dome of the rock built on the holy of holies , in the name of Omar. This was a contentious issue between the descendants of Bostenai through his Jewish wife that beheld the descendants of the Persian wife illegitimate . For the legend of how Bostenai ended up being the only descendant of the Davidic line , see Epistle of R’Shrira Gaon , or Seder olam zuta.
I believe that the Pact of Umar is a final version of a set of rules that were modified and added during the first two centuries of Islam, which does not diminish its validity as a historical document although it can't be attributed to a single period of time or ruler. Thank you Mr. Abrahamson
The pact was with christians. Not jews n its muslims umer added clause that jews were allowed to worship come from allo over the world. Coz it was not allowed for jews to live n come in the state by christians. So when they said they said we want to do pact with umer in physical presence. Its because they want securities n knows the umer. It is most pertinent to highlight When umer said that jews will be allowed to come n visit like christians n muslims. These were christians who pursuaded and become successful to add the condition that jews will not be allowed to stay n make homes Just come visit n go. Its well researched.

Rather than informing us the exact treaty word by word, you hypocriticaly distort its meaning trying to mislead people knowing facts. The first time Muslims conquered Jerusalem when the time of the afternoon prayer (dhuhur) arrived, Sophronius invited Caliph Umar to pray in the rebuilt Church of the Holy Sepulchre. Umar declined, fearing that accepting the invitation might endanger the church's status as a place of Christian worship, and that Muslims might break the treaty and turn the church into a mosque. After staying for ten days in Jerusalem, the caliph returned to Medina. When Muslims liberated Jerusalem from Roman Empire, for the first time, after almost 500 years of oppressive Roman rule, Jews were once again allowed to live inside Jerusalem. When Crusaders conquered Jerusalem, they massacred Muslims inhabitants (more than 10,000), they boasted that the flow of blood reached up to their knees. But Muslims (Salah u diin) reconquered Jerusalem they protected all inhabitants irrespective to their religion including blood thirsty Crusaders.
He clearly said that the Muslims themselves atribute this pact to Hazrat Omar. While historians put it around 9th century. Its well known Hazrat Omar made a different pact which was actually a letter which was formalised by Hazrat Omar. Jews if that time rather referred to Hazrat omar as a friend. Unlike today mulsim and jews had better relations.
Omar helped Jews to visit the Holy Sanctuary which was not the case because the Area was populated with Christains and how much Christains hated Jews is known by History.Jews were thrown out and the Temple was destructed and taken as refugees by Nebuchadnazar ...they were liberated by Cryus the Great and is sometime accredited with the building of Second Temple which may be later refurbished by Herod the Great.Under the Romans the Jews were very oppressive towards the Christian and did every possible thing to put the Holy One on the Cross{Not all Jews}.The Second temple is destructed and in 4th Century Roman Empire becomes Christian again the Jews are oppressed and now after the Siege of Jerusalem Omar gave them chance to visit the Jerusalem ....Can you imagine that time when Christains were in majority but still due to Muslims Jews could enter Jerusalem again and worship in Peace under Protection.Muslims also pay tax .... Read Ridda Wars regarding the Importance of Tax in Islam and understand it.Assalam
Omer mother is Jew , and he doesn’t like Mishnah ...it’s written in buhari.....Jew pay jizre , and Muslim pay to government sadaka and it’s not soo different..........any way in Islamic world every islamic sect have deferent close......plus most of Islamic low copy of Jewish low Talmud ........
Is the book's full name called "Buhari"? And what's the source for when you said most of Islamic law is copied from the Jewish Talmud? I'm Jewish and would like to read into these things, and I had some of my own suspicions that this may be true.
Hey Henry, u know the part of the pact of Umar where the nonmuslims have to shave the front part of there hair, well the Muslim dictators took over the Hindu and their laws five hundred years ago and made Hindus their slaves, this is why hare Krishna shave their head and are monks cuz back in the day the mohammedian Government in India made it so that only the Muslims were pimping chicks, and the Muslim king and the Hindu daughters of the enslaved Hindus were considered to be the male and female idols that the shaven monks would worship, kinda like how nowadays those in the porn sex industry mafia have more rights than those who are not in the industry,
The tragedy is that, today’s Israelis are colonising Palestinian land , forcing Muslims and Christians from Palestine to become refugees.SALAM SHANTI SHALOM.
