2-hour video on Sunday. HYPE! We do not coordinate with other channels and have no idea what they are working on. We trust in the quality of our videos. Our belief is that there is enough history for everyone and as we are planning to be making videos for a long time, eventually we will cover everything.
Why not a new Mediterranean Golden Age. We can make it happen together. We're all descendants of great civilizations, we can build a greater one if we do it together.
Insya Allah. I am not from Africa but its would be lovely. I think it will be great thing. Italy can be influence North Africa culture, so North Africa do same as peacefull colaboration. So Mediterinia Golden Age will be rise. Like Rennaissance and Islamic Golden Age without Crusade/Sabil wars.
Ibn Sina also argued for the use of quarantine to control the contagious infections in his five-volume medical encyclopedia “The Canon of Medicine,” originally published in 1025.
I've always been interested in Arabic and Muslim history, as it is very short spoken in classes in Portugal. The only time it's mentioned is when we are talking about the time of Reconquista, and they are always portrayed has enemies and vandals. Always been curious and this video is just great. I've also started to learn Arabic, very recent but it is awesome! Having a blast. Hope more people have curiosity and are open enough to fight through the stereotypes we get about Islam and learn how to respect it. It would be awesome to cohexist with it
Why it is called as islamic golden age when everyone know that they stole from the areas what they conquered. Maths, they got from india, Philosophy, they got from Greece Researchers and value of education, they got from modern day pakistan or that time india. Weaponry, they got from persians
@@jaggubadman65 "Stole" How do you steal something that they themselves gave? It's called the Islamic golden age because it gave people the capacity to go out and these things. And they were inspired by Islam to seek knlowdge.
@@ibraheemkhan9116 when someone is conquered and forced to give and give because it's their values not the islamic. And In particular I use the word stole, coz now they brand it as islam gave this to world but the reality is quite different
jaggu badman They welcomed Islam, because it brought justice, peace, morality, and important god and that’s what enabled them. They then went ahead to do these great things. You should read history.
They lasted for hundreds of years. Of course smaller libraries existed, just like they do now. But what do you suggest, scholars walking or riding camels from city to city to basically "google" some info? Of course the biggest universities and centers of knowledge in the richest cities will have the biggest libraries.
but that was the only way to progress at that time. their was no railways or cars at that time to transport fast so they had put all in one basket also no Muslims thought mongols would be so brutal that they will burn Baghdad. i think Baghdad was too valuable to be burnt to the ground and no Muslim must have ever imagined such thing would happen, No one ever imagined that a non Muslim army could ever reach near Baghdad,except they did and turned Euphrates black.
@ً ً the thing is, Islam has taught that the happiness that the Lord has promised his servants is happiness unimaginable. Simply meaning as a human being the concept is out of our grasp. But the idea is, u won't have any problems and will always be happy. It's not just "eternal happiness" it's the true happiness and peace we and no one has ever felt in this limited world. Allah says in the Quran to which I translated: "Ask whatever you may want, and on Our side, there is more." meaning no matter how much u desire, the Lord will always have more for u. There is absolutely no way it can be boring. We say these things because we thought it's the same on earth minus the problems. The Prophet himself has said that humans judge on what they see. meaning we can only know what is known to us. Jazakallahu khairan, may this helps improve ur understanding.
@@cirobarachiel7696 sorry are there any prophet like that? Maybe it's because our understanding of the prophet differ but I've never heard of such a prophet in my life. There are many prophets to whom I place my faith as per the Lord's will. But, there is only one prophet to whom I follow his teachings. He is Muhammad Ibn Abdullah (peace be upon him). The one who abolished slavery, the one who successfully promotes true equality between races, the who raise the place of women, the one who, in the land of nothing but sand, create the beginning of a civilization that would be remembered throughout the world, the who liberate the Arabia and all of human beings by bringing the message of the Lord, the one who was stoned, who was exiled by his own family, was sent assassins to kill him, was sent an army as huge as 10:1 against his own to destroy him, the one who, if not for him, you won't even be able to read this facts about him. You could find all of the most suffering human being in the world and none can be compared to his. He is a king who lives like a slave. He tie a stone to his stomach cuz he eats that little. People around him, respect him, revere him for his manner and his akhlak. He would never insult a person. He is the best human being that ever lived. That is the prophet that i know of. I have never heard of any prophet with the characteristic that u say. Maybe if you actually care to learn about the truth and not just being ignorance you would know. Lie and speak all you want, in the end that is all it amounts for.
Ibn Tamiyyah fought the mongols and died in the prison due to his opposition to the rulers though he ordered his followers to not revolt to maintain stability in the state
Golden age? More like age of genocide, assimilation and slavery. Yeah there was good stuff as well like advancements in science but it was mostly shit times.
I hope you didn't give misinformation since this video failed to mention. Islam didn't contribute anything to this golden age. Islam just invaded a culture that was already full of arts and science
As a practicing American born and raised convert to Sunni Islam. I am left speechless, amazed and humbled from the level of tact, respect and objectivity of this video. This is one of my favorite channels and definitely one of the best on RUclips. Nothing but great beneficial content. Just a note - Ibn Taymiyyah was born into servitude but was emancipated and went on to become a scholar of every theological discipline in Islam as well as medicine. His essays and teachings on core belief - عقيدة “creed/core belief” refuted the heresies of his time and those of today. He was also not an Arab like many of the greatest scholars of early Islam. Especially in the science of hadeeth. His being mentioned in this video pretty much about made me cry. You guys do an awesome job. Thanks.
Welcome to the deen brother. I'm glad you've learned well about Sheikh Al Islam one of the astonishing scholars of Islam. I hope you’re continuing in seeking knowledge. May Allah bless you.
@@indramayugaming215 thanks to the likes of ibn Taymiyyah, the Golden Age ended. The very dogmatic interpretation in Hanbalism has made sure no science or tech inventions occur in Hanbali majority areas, even today.
@@asha802 Correct. Ibn Taymiyyah had very stringent views which did much damage to the diversity of thought and opinion in the Islamic world. He is responsible for the Sunni-Shia schism we see today, which truly, should not at all exist.
@@hassa563 That's very short sighted. The schism was already established, and is maintained without Ibn Taymiyyah. Shiatish = Imamate (Monarchy, bloodline, inherited power) Sunnism = the best man for the job, no innate right of any sons. Everything else is decoration to make it make sense, but it boils down to this simple difference.
it saddens me to see the larger than usual quantity of dislikes this video has. As a student of history I feel it my job, not just to seek to enlighten myself on my own culture, but also that of ones less familiar to me. In our modern world intolerance and bias has no home
I LOVE cultural anthropology and world history. I don’t get why some folks are petty with their own species. I’ve seen commenters marginalize the Islamic golden age on another channel. Just willfully ignorant talk. They can’t even accept that Muslims contributed to Europe’s scientific revolution. People need to understand. The Middle East wasn’t always so politically unstable.
I am a Christian from birth, but this channel makes me intrigued about the Muslim world, which is for me, has a negative image in my mind before, and I kind of changing that by now. So, thanks to this channel.
To us Pagans (Hindus) both of you are the same. The brutal Monotheistic faiths with strong dogmas and hunger to loot and expand. A sense of superiority and utter disregard of spirituality. Very little knowledge of truth and yet a feeling that they know everything.
@@RahulYadav-uv8fz I'm not really a religious person, and I have an open mind to all religions. I don't look superiority nor inferiority just because of religion, and I respect the faith of every Human Person. And that thing you said "...with strong dogmas and hunger to loot and expand", well, we Filipinos are the product of that process. The Spanish Colonizers eradicated Hinduism and Buddhism and all kinds of religion to our country to convert us to Christianity, loot our people, abused our people, and has a racist look to us Filipinos/Malayans. And that thing you said is kind of true.
@@leonardmaranan1838 Then why do you still call yourself a Christian, why not go back and revive your own roots? I am sure Phillipines had a great culture of her own, why not revive it. Why not go back to what your ancestors stood for rather than stay with what your oppressors stood for. Modern science has already proven that these Abrahamics are wrong, then why follow them. Having an open mind is OK, but we all know in the name of religion what these brutes have done to our ancestors, don't you think that the spirit of our ancestors will feel better if revive their legacy rather than continue on the path of the brutes.
@Deiaa Samer 90%? I am pretty sure that you are over exaggerating the number here, if not then please can I have the source of this survey? A huge number of Muslims are narrow minded, yes that is true but saying that majority is narrow minded is nonsense.
I'm now finishing my third year in philosophy and I had an idea of the influence of the Islamic world on our own thoughts. This is a demonstration of how we can work together in this little blue dot on the universe. Let's be united has humans and not divided because of religion or hate!
@Tim Edin Hey foolish man , you remind me of an arabic quote that says : “He who knows not, and knows not that he knows not, is a fool; shun him. He who knows not, and knows that he knows not, is a student; Teach him. He who knows, and knows not that he knows, is asleep; Wake him. He who knows, and knows that he knows, is Wise; Follow him.”
As a Muslim this is some of the best non-biased report on the development of Islamic civilisation. Thank you so much, I will share this and the channel with my children to learn about history. Would love a series on African pre-colonial history. I know it is much harder to find as so much of the tradition was transmuted orally. But I would really love to watch that series.
Therefore, the Roman civilization will be called the Christian civilization, as it brings together Greeks, Copts, Arabs, Franks, English, Spanish, Berbers, Syriacs, and others.!! Brother, don't try to deceive yourself. When civilization is called Islamic! Everyone knows that it is an Arab civilization and that it belongs to the Arabs. Its rulers are Arabs. Her religion is Arabic. Its culture is Arab. You must accept your reality and not use Islam as an excuse. Were it not for the swords of the Arabs, I would not have converted to Islam. Rather, your ancestors converted to Islam voluntarily, unwillingly, and out of fear. Therefore, do not be arrogant and do not try to steal the achievements of your Arab rulers and masters.
Unbiased? Are you kidding. One of the simplest facts he failed to mention is that most of the leading translators of Greek works during that time were Christians from the Levant who translated the work from Syriac to Arabic. Also, he failed to stress the role of the Byzantines and Persians. Most of the thinkers he mentioned were hated by main stream Muslims of that time. The Mu'tazila school was literally obliterated when as soon as it had lost the support of the Caliphate. The works of Averroes were burned by an angry mob. The list goes on.
I’ve heard people try to diminish the accomplishments of this time period because they essentially collected the knowledge of other places, which is like saying that libraries before the internet weren’t important because they didn’t write the books they collect. Without those collections and commentaries there wouldn’t have been a renaissance for who knows how long.
The collection and commentary on the works of former civilizations was only during he early period, as the years passed the local scholars added their own scholarship to the stock of human knowledge. Liek for example Alhazen ibn al-Haytham who critiqued the inherited Greek theories of light and vision, in his ‘Kitab al-Manadir’ 'Book of Optics', and managed to create his own experimentally tested theories to replace them, thereby ushering the first building blocks for the modern understanding of how human vision takes place. Ibn al-Haytham is credited with explaining the nature of light and vision, through using a dark chamber he called “al-Bayt al-Mudhlim”, which has the Latin translation as the “camera obscura”; the device that forms the basis of photography.
Not to mention that almost all great empires which advanced in science, culture and philosophy did the same thing as Islamic Golden Age! Like, where would Rome be if they didn't inherit and improve upon what the Greeks did?
@محمد رائد Yeah, knowledge; science; and culture are a continuous process. It's silly to downplay a nations/people's success just because they borrowed and improved on past knowledge.
@@theodoros9428 barbaric is only you ....ıf we were barbaric, you would not save your identity and religion under ottoman Turks for 500 years.....Historians accept that ottoman empire is the most tolerant empire that gives freedom for different identities including Christians and jews....we saw you when the Syrian refugees came to Greece... you insulted them and even shouted them.... we care them for 9 years ad we are most generous and helpful nation in the world....learn humanity from the Turks...

One of the extremely few channels that is always objective and solely base their videos on historically accurate research. I have seen everything from Boudicca to the middle east, from the Rus to s Asia. Best channel on youtube for history nerds
The amount of hatred in comments about the vvideo is unbelievable ... they hate anything related to Islam and keep denying that our scholars have given alot to science and arts ... just accept the truth and stop fighting
Haha not really... Just sad to see how most muslim countries have gone backwards since the Golden age of Islam. Going from opened minded to closed minded people.
@@deleon3139 it is sad indeed not denying that even the prophet had mentioned the situation of muslims at our time ... but this has nothing to do with my comment
@@chilongqua1238 Oh dear .. how ill informed you are. You still don't know that the CIA and other secret agencies fund all the Islamic Terrorist groups. Keep up....
There was no political intrigue nor battles in the vid; however, I quite enjoyed it. I knew Muslims made many scientific advances during the European Dark age, but I didn't know they were the ones that Saved Aristotle, Galen and Hippocrates for the modern day.
That's partially inaccurate since a good chunk of these works were also well preserved with the Byzantines who also played a major role in the development of European thought.
The Dark Ages were not as dark as people used to and still think. I'd say there's a persistent misconception of the Eueopean Middle Ages, especially since Enlightment.
what a waste of time..when I was young i was forced to memorize the Quran..that was fuckin. pointless..and just memorize it mind you..no explaining no nothing..and you get treated like shit..
@@weirdverse66 what do you mean by free will?? kids are usually forced to read and memorize the quran..at least where I from and possibly every other poor arab country
@@worfoz Heard of the term ‘muslims’? Also, it’s not clear what you are talking about. The rich knowledge from the Islamic Golden Age inspired many Western philosophers, whether you think ‘mohammedans’ were criminals or not.
7:28 might I add something, we Muslims acknowledge it not as being "torturous" but as a challenge to ourselves! and ALL of them who have memorized it, keep the verses in their memory by heart, and recite frequently so they don't forget or mispronounce the words! It is indeed, very difficult but not impossible!
Quran have maybe million of hafiz (people who memorized the whole Quran). And I think that's what makes Quran still the same and authentic if we compare it with another holy book.
"Hafeth" is a title given to the person who memorizes over 100,000 of "Hadeeth" (what the prophet peace be upon him said and did) including the body of Hadeeth (what the prophet said peace be upon him) and the series of narrators who passed the body of the Hadeeth until it was documented.
as long as you are passionet about what you do the difficulty of it will be a reward on to it self, there is nothing too be proud of that has been easy.
I'm a Muslim and I'm truly amazed to see how the real Muslims used to be in olden days, today Fanaticism and ignorance has destroyed the essence of being a Muslim. If only we could return to our former self and indulge more time in philosophy, science, immaterialism, mysticism, humanities and society. The lust of power, greed of expansion and aggressive jihad led to downfall of Muslims.
Real Muslims?! Real Muslims are Daesh and Al-Qaida, as a matter of fact most of those big names of the golden age had several clashes and confrontations with real Muslims of the time.
JP B it was Islam Ofcourse, could you imagine a nomadic people conquer two of the greatest empires in that day in just 60 years after its formation , Islamic golden age does not mean Islam made discoveries it mean discoveries that were under Islamic rule so yes Indians romans and Persians had influences but their influences wouldn’t make these discoveries without the Islamic caliphate
If it weren't for islamic world's defeat of Mongols in Ain jalut the Mongols would conquered all Europe they were at river of Hungary and Hungary lost 400,000 soldiers in the river one battle alone . The Muslim world battle against Mongols saved the Europeans.
Islamic golden age (Best An example of tolerance and coexistence And spread science and culture among nations) Europe’s : I never heard that in school I mean that Islam has had a great merit over Europe, in terms of morals, personal hygiene, and a lot, even that the culture of Spinning with women came from Arabic poetry, and it is natural to mention merits instead of describing it as terrorist and reinforce the phenomenon of "Islamicphobia."
Actually, in Spain, the Islamic golden age is taught in schools because during 700 years there were muslin states in the peninsula, and it is important to understand Islam in order to understand the history and culture of Spain.
@@PaulisticFaith it's like saying north Africans shouldn't learn about the European history in schools because they dont need it either. I believe the golden age is much more worthy to be taught instead of Europe's dark age as well as their colonialism.
@@PaulisticFaith and what about the Islamic world ,we learn everything about European civilizations and the 1st and 2nd ww this is selfish and racist what did you said
Paul Woodward He meant that Europeans only know arabs through destroyed countries like Syria, Irak (thanks to the US) and therefore most of europeans would think that arab civilizations have never achieved anything.
indeed .. cause they are objective as possible and not sided with anyone i believe .. yes there are tons of historical things that they yet to make a video about but in time those will also come to being i hope .. and mate this narrator's voice is beatiful to listen :) its not coarse not shrill or not scratchy .. so its really good to listen as well :)
@@enesakhan4032 and the animation and narration is spot on💪 the only other history channel which is on par with them are armchair historians who also make really good content
@@arulshankarum2512 Al muqadimmah is also very interesting since he covers mostly the arabic world which often doesn't get featured that often in other channels
@@enesakhan4032 History should always be seen objectively, it's only agenda, the accurate representation of the past, no matter whose past it is. History is a study of humanity, in all its diversity and the different paths through time this diversity takes, uncolored by the politics or religion of today. This channel has consistently presented history this way and deserves it's popularity.
I'm not religious but learning about this age has made fills me with respect and gratitude. What a time to be alive, trading ideas with people of all walks and philosophies. I feel like we need that.
This series is just perfectly timed with Ramadhan, I'm curious and researched many discoveries happen during the Islamic Golden Age but there's just too much information lol. Thank you to whoever put in their whole effort into this series!! Also Ramadhan Kareem from Australia, may Allah blessed you
@@Oussama-q4l So our life of education about us being humans are just for show? If we are aliens we could already build Space ship. Yet we still can only build War Mechines that can only operate inside the earth atmosphere 🤣
@@Nico.Robin7 , why are you triggered, my dear? Take it is a compliment. You're not going to argue with Abu Dawud's hadith on the subject of Aisha's age, I trust.
Great documentary! I'm from East Africa (Kenya) and our national and co-official language, Swahili, borrows significantly from classical Arabic (including the word Falsafa for philosophy, hadithi for story etc) due to extensive Arabic presence beginning from this Golden Age and extending till the 1500s when Europeans such as Portuguse started venturing in the Indian ocean. In fact, the Arabs left such an impression on the locals, that the Swahili word for civilization is "Ustaarabu", which basically means "like an Arab"
Great video and a really good idea for new series. Let alone western people even most of the Muslims don't know enough about this time period. As a Muslim I find it very informative in many ways. Thank you guys as always!
@Easter Worshipper My country has been feeding 8 million refugees for near a decade. I ain't going anywhere but we opened borders and they will come for your lands when all this pandemic stuff over lol. Enjoy it.
@Easter Worshipper Hahaha. You think you can tell people where to go and where not to? Think again. Freedom of movement is a basic human right. Your country will accept immigrant workers, whether you like it or not.
@Easter Worshipper That "reform" will never happen, you deluded fool. Accept the fact that people will go and live wherever they want. You are powerless, all you can do is comment like this on the internet and dream of things that will never happen and blame your own shortcomings on the immigrants.
"When house of wisdom were invade by Mongol, the river near the city Become Black and the Tower full of scholar skull" How the Great library books were thrown out in the river and the river become black because of ink
I was going to say "Back when Europeans were still living in tiny huts and scared of dragons" then I realized that comparing civilization is a waste of time. Civilizations learned from each other, and when one fell, others rose.
@@JakeMobley1 wait! weren't they the ones who fought with Iran for 300 years turning the noman's land between them (Syria, Iraq, Jordan and Israel) into rubbşe and from that chaos Arabs armed with Islam filled the void causing first Iran, then in centuries part by part themselves were destroyed? Jokes aside, which were actualy truthful, Islam exists because Byzantine Empire existed before it. And Christianism exists because Roman Empire existed before it. Just like Jewish exists because Egypt Pharoahdom existed before it.

The latin name is Algorithm...and they still now contributing im not trying to separate between religions .but the gold islamic age is just full of science and dévelopment and it helped a lot in the modern science
@Tim Edin lol nothing u said? We Muslims by the help of Allah made a hugeeee advancements in everything from astronomy to biology to mathematics..... While Europe was peeing in the streets and America didn't exist

@@0Er0 Actually I am irreligious, but my family and my environment are all muslims and I really am in a confusion now.

They are too extreme on me, they never let me pray alone and make me pray with their long period praying. I never had a time finishing my homework with this. I once told them Islam is not a forcing religion and hence they never listen. Why is it so hard to live in Turkey?

Yet they open the flood gate of more peoples exploring Islam with the publication of Clash of Civilizations, as if Islam is rigid and anti modernity, other civilization or peoples?
I never understand why would people dislike these kind of videos especially when it talks about Islam. Must be some haters who hated Islam, that's for sure.
Yeah, but to be fair at that time many such fields weren't s defined and developed as they are now, so they may seem to overlap from our lens and thus it seems like even one person seems to be an expert in many different things back then. Nevertheless they have individual achievements and were pioneers in multiple fields which is to be commended.
I understand that this is an introductory episode and mostly focused on philosophers, which was properly put, but one cannot forget to mention Ibn Al-haytham when talking about Islam Golden Age, the man is literally the founder of methodological science, the Scientific Method, which is the standard of modern science of today that made science transform from philosophy into experimentation and research. He is a legend in the history of science and unfortunately rarely mentioned today. He also made splendid discoveries and studies too, such as the nature of light, human eyes, eye surgery, lenses, the concept of Camera (Qomrah) etc.
He was great, but we can't forget about Aristotle, he created methodology which inspired Islam's golden age and Al-haytham more then thousand years earlier
@@arturhashmi6281 Aristotle did not create methodology, it was Ibn al Haytham who did it. But for sure Aristotle and Greek text that was preserved and translated by Muslims did inspire Muslims in their science pursuit.
I think truthfully the scientific method in its current state has many contributors and not one supreme 'founder'. I do, however believe that the West has a very pro-western view of these contributions and we do not give Islamic scholars enough credit. Ibn Al-haytham should be as well known as the likes of Galileo, Descartes and Bacon, yet most in the West have probably never heard of him.
Islam is a religion of peace. Just read this . 9:29 Fight those who do not believe in Allah or in the Last Day and who do not consider unlawful what Allah and His Messenger have made unlawful and who do not adopt the religion of truth from those who were given the Scripture - [fight] until they give the jizyah willingly while they are humbled.
With the quality that these videos are made, KnG deserves to have their own TV channel to produce full length documentaries series. It has all the potential to become what History Channel once was.

Great video as always. I'm Muslim and I'm really amazed at the knowledge in science and philosophy that our great precursors had. I'm even more interested in knowing what knowledge might have been lost in those times (Like when the Mongols sacked Baghdad in 1258). The Golden Age of Islam was truly an incredible period, and I couldn't be more proud of my Muslim ancestors and their constributions to modern science and technology. Ramadan Kareem to my Muslim brothers and sisters around the world ❤
Perhaps you could explain what was lost instead when the Delhi Sultanate and other characters invaded and looted Indian cities and universities (Vikramshila, Nalanda, etc.) and temples, destroying libraries and all the rest. Remember too that India was a centre of learning and culture with Persians, Chinese, Central Asians and Japanese even coming to study. It's always a tragedy for the Islamic world but no one else's perspective counts.
@@navinkumarpk86 Hello sir. The person who was responsible for the destruction of Vikramshila and Nalanda happened to be a Muslim, but it does not mean that Muslims destroyed those two places. The person in mind ,Khilji, was not a "scholar", he was an illiterate tribal warlord from Afghanistan, who got noticed (and later hired) by some Turkic rulers for his military skills. He did what he had been told to do. The only thing he was good at is raging battle and killing people, irrespective of Muslim or non-Muslim whoever. It has also been recorded that Khilji even did not know how to sign his name. Keep in mind, buddhist philosophers faced a far more severe (and lengthy) forms of persecution from the Shaivite rulers like king Shashanka, Khilji's massacre is, in that sense, an isolated incident. We need to see the whole context and also need to consider the mindset of those warlords from the Middle Ages. Have a good day.
@Tim Edin Half of the knowledge the Greeks knew in astronomy and cosmology was false. And as far as I know, the only thing Muslims borrowed from India were the Arabic numerals. Muslims didn't steal anything, they simply contributed to and/or corrected already existing notions. Renaissance in Italy wouldn't have happened without medieval Muslim knowledge. Knowledge is like a snowball rolling down a mountain, it gets bigger by time.
thank you for making this video as in the west we are told in schools it was the greeks and the roman who pioneered theese things however they dont tell you it was islam that brang medicine and astronomy and sciences to the European nations first.
@Cier Den Sigh... this is false. The muslims did little more then translate the greek texts to arabic and then keep the knowledge to themselves, there were no major scientific discoveries until then. They did some philosophy stuff but thats it. After the West took the knowledge back from them (by force during the crusades), they pretty much kickstarted the Renaissance then the Industrial révolution etc... The whole "muslims took Europe out of dark ages" is ISIS propaganda. Please stop repeating it.

It is difficult if one does not know Arabic. For many of us non Arabs it does seem torturous, for others its easy; everyone is different. But it is nothing compared to the reward.
M Saley I’m not an Arab either, and no doubt it’s not easy, but for anyone who takes the time to do it it’s not torturous at all. Compare this to memorising any other book in the world. It’s extremely easy.

Empiricism and metaphysics are two different phenomenon that are both needed for establishing an effective scientific institution.

To say that muslims just stole or copied greek knowledge is just ignorant. When a civilization or an empire conquers another they built on it, they take their knowledge and later develope and upgrade it, thats one of the reasons why civilization as a whole progresses. The greeks took many inventions from the persians, the romans from the greeks, the arabs took from the romans and so on.
They may have learned from the Greeks and took inspiration from them but they also came up with their own stuff and added to the Classical stuff. I mean the man who discovered how light travels was a Muslim scholar/professor.

Ancient Libraries are the perfect example of don't put all your eggs in one basket.
They lasted for hundreds of years. Of course smaller libraries existed, just like they do now. But what do you suggest, scholars walking or riding camels from city to city to basically "google" some info? Of course the biggest universities and centers of knowledge in the richest cities will have the biggest libraries.
And they of course made copies stored other places, that's exactly why we still have writings of ancient Greeks.
Or atleast maintain multiple Xerox copies in multiple locations. Something we do today effortlessly with the advents of Printing Press and Internet.
Look at the map, Baghdad is on center of the world, connected to all continent. Everything has risk
but that was the only way to progress at that time. their was no railways or cars at that time to transport fast so they had put all in one basket also no Muslims thought mongols would be so brutal that they will burn Baghdad. i think Baghdad was too valuable to be burnt to the ground and no Muslim must have ever imagined such thing would happen, No one ever imagined that a non Muslim army could ever reach near Baghdad,except they did and turned Euphrates black.
The Prophet once says, to which I translated: They who strive to gain knowledge, Allah will make it easy for them to go to heaven"
@ً ً the thing is, Islam has taught that the happiness that the Lord has promised his servants is happiness unimaginable. Simply meaning as a human being the concept is out of our grasp. But the idea is, u won't have any problems and will always be happy. It's not just "eternal happiness" it's the true happiness and peace we and no one has ever felt in this limited world. Allah says in the Quran to which I translated: "Ask whatever you may want, and on Our side, there is more." meaning no matter how much u desire, the Lord will always have more for u. There is absolutely no way it can be boring. We say these things because we thought it's the same on earth minus the problems. The Prophet himself has said that humans judge on what they see. meaning we can only know what is known to us. Jazakallahu khairan, may this helps improve ur understanding.

I’ve heard people try to diminish the accomplishments of this time period because they essentially collected the knowledge of other places, which is like saying that libraries before the internet weren’t important because they didn’t write the books they collect. Without those collections and commentaries there wouldn’t have been a renaissance for who knows how long.
The collection and commentary on the works of former civilizations was only during he early period, as the years passed the local scholars added their own scholarship to the stock of human knowledge. Liek for example Alhazen ibn al-Haytham who critiqued the inherited Greek theories of light and vision, in his ‘Kitab al-Manadir’ 'Book of Optics', and managed to create his own experimentally tested theories to replace them, thereby ushering the first building blocks for the modern understanding of how human vision takes place. Ibn al-Haytham is credited with explaining the nature of light and vision, through using a dark chamber he called “al-Bayt al-Mudhlim”, which has the Latin translation as the “camera obscura”; the device that forms the basis of photography.
He is known to have said : “If learning the truth is the scholar’s goal… then he must make himself the enemy of all that he reads. ”
Not to mention that almost all great empires which advanced in science, culture and philosophy did the same thing as Islamic Golden Age! Like, where would Rome be if they didn't inherit and improve upon what the Greeks did?

"Hafeth" is a title given to the person who memorizes over 100,000 of "Hadeeth" (what the prophet peace be upon him said and did) including the body of Hadeeth (what the prophet said peace be upon him) and the series of narrators who passed the body of the Hadeeth until it was documented.

Great documentary! I'm from East Africa (Kenya) and our national and co-official language, Swahili, borrows significantly from classical Arabic (including the word Falsafa for philosophy, hadithi for story etc) due to extensive Arabic presence beginning from this Golden Age and extending till the 1500s when Europeans such as Portuguse started venturing in the Indian ocean. In fact, the Arabs left such an impression on the locals, that the Swahili word for civilization is "Ustaarabu", which basically means "like an Arab"

I do, however believe that the West has a very pro-western view of these contributions and we do not give Islamic scholars enough credit. Ibn Al-haytham should be as well known as the likes of Galileo, Descartes and Bacon, yet most in the West have probably never heard of him.
Ramadan Mubarak to all muslims! loved this video too K&G.
peace to you

Islam is a religion of peace. Just read this .
9:29 Fight those who do not believe in Allah or in the Last Day and who do not consider unlawful what Allah and His Messenger have made unlawful and who do not adopt the religion of truth from those who were given the Scripture - [fight] until they give the jizyah willingly while they are humbled.
One religion killed humanity and beautiful world of peace
With the quality that these videos are made, KnG deserves to have their own TV channel to produce full length documentaries series. It has all the potential to become what History Channel once was. I so much enjoy when KnG releases historic videos that don't just depict a battle. This was an extraordinary well executed historical video, cant wait for the continuations on this.
Memorization is not tortures process. But a well wished, a desirable process where they gain knowledge, wisdom, and the most important is , they learn how to be peaceful
"Tortuous"
Who else is watch this while fasting lol Ramadan Kareem to all my Muslims brothers and sisters around the world❤️

Its infuriating that Hulagu Khan destroyed so many of the books in Baghdad. Makes you wonder what would have happened if he hadnt.
Great video as always. I'm Muslim and I'm really amazed at the knowledge in science and philosophy that our great precursors had. I'm even more interested in knowing what knowledge might have been lost in those times (Like when the Mongols sacked Baghdad in 1258). The Golden Age of Islam was truly an incredible period, and I couldn't be more proud of my Muslim ancestors and their constributions to modern science and technology. Ramadan Kareem to my Muslim brothers and sisters around the world ❤

Perhaps you could explain what was lost instead when the Delhi Sultanate and other characters invaded and looted Indian cities and universities (Vikramshila, Nalanda, etc.) and temples, destroying libraries and all the rest. Remember too that India was a centre of learning and culture with Persians, Chinese, Central Asians and Japanese even coming to study. It's always a tragedy for the Islamic world but no one else's perspective counts.
@@navinkumarpk86 Hello sir. The person who was responsible for the destruction of Vikramshila and Nalanda happened to be a Muslim, but it does not mean that Muslims destroyed those two places.
The person in mind ,Khilji, was not a "scholar", he was an illiterate tribal warlord from Afghanistan, who got noticed (and later hired) by some Turkic rulers for his military skills. He did what he had been told to do. The only thing he was good at is raging battle and killing people, irrespective of Muslim or non-Muslim whoever. It has also been recorded that Khilji even did not know how to sign his name. Keep in mind, buddhist philosophers faced a far more severe (and lengthy) forms of persecution from the Shaivite rulers like king Shashanka, Khilji's massacre is, in that sense, an isolated incident.
We need to see the whole context and also need to consider the mindset of those warlords from the Middle Ages. Have a good day.
@Tim Edin Half of the knowledge the Greeks knew in astronomy and cosmology was false. And as far as I know, the only thing Muslims borrowed from India were the Arabic numerals. Muslims didn't steal anything, they simply contributed to and/or corrected already existing notions. Renaissance in Italy wouldn't have happened without medieval Muslim knowledge. Knowledge is like a snowball rolling down a mountain, it gets bigger by time.
thank you for making this video as in the west we are told in schools it was the greeks and the roman who pioneered theese things however they dont tell you it was islam that brang medicine and astronomy and sciences to the European nations first.
@@stomio6491 nope. Get over it, bigot.
@Cier Den Sigh... this is false. The muslims did little more then translate the greek texts to arabic and then keep the knowledge to themselves, there were no major scientific discoveries until then. They did some philosophy stuff but thats it. After the West took the knowledge back from them (by force during the crusades), they pretty much kickstarted the Renaissance then the Industrial révolution etc...
The whole "muslims took Europe out of dark ages" is ISIS propaganda. Please stop repeating it.

Tell me a field that did not came from Muslim.
Im going to read the books brought up in this documentary.
Yeah especially that boy Kamil in the desert sounds interesting
You should read Al muqadima by ibn khaldoun it's really interesting
@@salahddinebensebane8429 thanks man. I wonder if I should read the koran first.
@@buu678 honestly if you want to read the coran you need to constraint on it
Not to boost or anything but the Arabic has 12 million words and then came the English with 600000 you see the difference l read the coran in both French and English and it so much different that l don't even think it's the same coran not like the translator's didn't do there best but it's really difficult
Also even me won't understand if l wasn't with a imam to and a arabic teacher to help me understand it
As a Muslim l really recommend reading the coran but the coran isn't a book were you read it for 30 minutes before sleeping
Well it's quarantine maybe it's the best time to read the coran and constraint on it
@@salahddinebensebane8429 Thats interesting. What I was actually meant was to see how much reading the koran first would help me understand the other books from this documentary.
inshaAllah we will rise again ☝❤

Just a Note: "there are now more than 10 million muslims

Those 10 million people learned a worthless fairy tale and every detail of it. What an achievement

7:30 - Becoming a Hafidh (memorise the whole Qur'aan) is NOT a torturous task. It is relatively easy and even many children do it. It is one of the miracles of Islam. Many millions exist.
It is difficult if one does not know Arabic. For many of us non Arabs it does seem torturous, for others its easy; everyone is different. But it is nothing compared to the reward.
M Saley I’m not an Arab either, and no doubt it’s not easy, but for anyone who takes the time to do it it’s not torturous at all. Compare this to memorising any other book in the world. It’s extremely easy.
@@msaley6033 , and what is the reward?
@@msaley6033 Some spoken chat words when stretched over some religious practices are somehow offending, for example memorizing Qu'ran as a whole while encouraged it is not mandatory and as such applying such term "torturous" is implying enforced injustice...hope to keep terminologies where they can fit the most...
yes it's very easy and better done orally than reading.
Irony: Averroes/Ibn Rushd is the only muslim "Master of thought" who is depicted on the painting The School of Athens, kept in the Vatican. The whole idea of secularism and separation of religion and state is his. It didn't manage to make an impact among his own correligionaries, but his works reached Paris and thus influenced the whole of Europe as it contributed to a turn to secularism in Modern Ages.
Secular liberalism was a mistake, we have to go back.
@@WGerardPoolePhD Not an expert on Islam and Islamic society, but you make interesting points. I strongly agreed with the latter part of your comment and additionally, I couldn't help the almost insulting flyover of St Thomas of Aquinas and St Augustine at 15:45
@@tasinal-hassan8268 No offence but science and empiricism has nothing to do with Islam nor can it flourish in that kind of environment, but i can agree that suffis used it because they were the most intelligent beings at the time and even before but Islam cant even afford a simple rational thought let alone science. And by religious science you mean theology that is by far the worst way a man can waste a life time.
Averroes also penned a reply to "The Incoherence of the Philosophers", aptly titled "The Incoherence of the Incoherence"
@@native2704 Your comment has no relevancy to what I was purporting. I was saying Islamic theology made it mandatory for Muslims to seek knowledge and use it for the betterment of mankind. Empiricism and metaphysics are two different phenomenon that are both needed for establishing an effective scientific institution. Doesn't if one's a Sufi or Sunni or something like that,it's a fact that Islam motivated men and women to conquer and build civilizations.

To say that muslims just stole or copied greek knowledge is just ignorant. When a civilization or an empire conquers another they built on it, they take their knowledge and later develope and upgrade it, thats one of the reasons why civilization as a whole progresses. The greeks took many inventions from the persians, the romans from the greeks, the arabs took from the romans and so on.
So then indeed Muslims are copy and paste like their pedophile false prophet muhammad
They may have learned from the Greeks and took inspiration from them but they also came up with their own stuff and added to the Classical stuff. I mean the man who discovered how light travels was a Muslim scholar/professor.
But no one ever credited the indians for their discoveries. Thats the sad part
@@holdyourcamels2269 Well you can't really use that logic since Muslims can then also use it on Western Civilization.
Building the foundations is one, erecting the building is another. The Muslims may have laid the foundations for many of the modern day Sciences but they never really improved on it. It was the West that later picked up on these foundations and built modern civilization.
