Why is it that all those stories about Dhul are the Same as the Stories about Alexander the great when they cant be the Same Person?

[@esrefyalnklcl6500]

Most likely Dhulkarnejn was the great ancestor of Turks, known as Oghuz Kagan or Bilge Kagan, a title interchangeably used for him, who conquered east and west and north to south. His story was recorded on the Gòkturk (Orkhon) inscription stones, erected in modern day Mongolia, namely the historic birthplace of the Turks. He was not a pagan as were Alexander, Darius or Cyrus the greats, but a monotheist, which regarded Kök-Tengri as the single one and the only omnipotent creater of the world. His campaigns and conquests were written on the monuments, which are absolutely parallel with the narrative of the Holy Quran, that gives the story of Dhulkarnein at the end of the Surah al Qaf. As Zhulkarnein made his voyages and campaigns east and west, the inscription in the Orkhon Valley also mentions that Oghuz Khagan made his voyages to west and east and led the peoples where he met with the help and will of Kòk-Tengri, namely to the God Turks called. Furthermore in oral history and cultures of the Asian peoples, Dhulkarnein was known as the prophet sent to the Turks by Allah. Of course, Allah c.c. knows the best and He has the secret and sacred knowledge which we never comprehend with our simple minds...

Cornelius = Germanicus, an Heir that never became an Augustus (aga khan).

There are many opinions. Perhaps he could have been an ancient African ruler or middle Eastern or a Eurasian leader. The most important thing is to get the lessons from the story.

Why don't the Sheikh stick to the story? I came to listen about Zul Qarnayn but only 40% of the video is about him

It's funny how the aws and khasraj know who dhul quranain is but scholars and preachers today have no clue. All I want to say is dhul qurnayn is mentioned in the Qur'an as the man who wanted to know how Allah revives the earth after he causes it to die and then he died and was resurrected he became a king in Yemen called dhul qurnayn the man of two ages.hr was the grandfather of the aws and kasraj tribes that's why they asked him these questions. his army was called tubba also mention in the Qur'an. His army was a group of young men that Allah caused them all to die then he said to them to be resurrected. I can tell you exactly who yajuj and majuj are and where they are found. The companions spoke about dhul quranain and confirmed he was himyarite

Where are yajuj and majuj?

[@yementribez3362]

@@Swed813first yajuj and majuj are the tribes of Satan but not his direct decendants but humans that have took refuge with the jinn or took women from the jinn or genetically modified. the position of yajuj and majuj stand beyond the north pole entrance in in the inner earth or heavenly garden where Adam as first lived and got expelled. The wall of dhul qurnayn was Built in the inner earth. The land of the two easts and the two wests. I have full proof from the Qur'an

@@Zain-kb9zs Or [consider such an example] as the one who passed by a township which had fallen into ruin. He said, "How will Allah bring this to life after its death?" So Allah caused him to die for a hundred years; then He revived him. He said, "How long have you remained?" The man said, "I have remained a day or part of a day." He said, "Rather, you have remained one hundred years. Look at your food and your drink; it has not changed with time. And look at your donkey; and We will make you a sign for the people. And look at the bones [of this donkey] - how We raise them and then We cover them with flesh." And when it became clear to him, he said, "I know that Allah is over all things competent. Qur'an 2.259

@@Zain-kb9zs Have you not considered those who left their homes in many thousands, fearing death? Allah said to them, "Die"; then He restored them to life. And Allah is full of bounty to the people, but most of the people do not show gratitude. Qur'an 2.243 ...... This was the army of king tubba Yemen. Allah caused them to die and then reserected them during the time of dhulqurnayn. They became his unstoppable army that conquered the world. Dhul qurnayn inherited the army and kingdom of king tubba.

The miraculous nature of the Quran? So many passages are unintelligible.

dhul Qarnain = Cornelius (twin-father) = Amram/Imran (the prosperous)

@@willempasterkamp862 I thought “dhul quarnayn” means “two horns” which is why the name is thought to refer to either Alexander the Great or King Cyrus, both of whom were depicted with ram horns on the temples of their heads.

@@flutterstone1281 The legend developped over time, first applied to gods (baal for example), dragons and demons, mythical sons of god, and then to real historical mighty kings and their heirs. One such roman heir of the first century is Germanicus, who had actually a tragic live and died young. He lived further in myths woven around his personality, A Hero-character like robin hood and the pied piper in one.
His wife and 'twin' sons (lost boys) were martyred, He is known as Zebedee, Klopas and Cornelis Coot, his family the Claudians overlaps with the ducks, seven sleepers and dwarfs of snowhite, As it comes to rightiousness or 'rightfullness' he is a far more likely candidate for the historical dhul Qarnain, and completely overlooked.
The most important evidence is the 4th century jewish ' Huqoq elephant mosaic ' that shows Germanicus at the moment he is most humiliated and humbled. Jews knew him as Pandera and Kamtza. A statue of him with the name PANTERA was unearthed in Bingebrück (germany).
