My mother once told me that her grandmother had shared stories of her grandmother’s origins, she was from a village near Amrān, Yemen. She would often speak of the deep bond between the Jewish and Muslim communities, describing how they lived as neighbours, as family supporting one another in times of need. One of the most striking stories was how Jewish and Muslim mothers would even breastfeed each others children, a testament to the closeness and mutual care between the two faiths. Unfortunately we live in a time where these stories did became unimaginable ..It’s unforgivable the genocide now going in Palestine.. However I believe and have hope in Allah swt has a plan with all this madness that’s going on their. My Allah swt prevail justice and peace for all of us.
This also happened in Iran and other central Asian countries. Baby sitting was huge because of how honest and sincere the Jews were at the time. They used to call each other cousins. The Zionist ruined everything.
I shed a tear listening to this rabbi describe the life that jews and muslims had together before Isreal ruined it. A sense of peace and harmony that I hope will one day come back
I can’t believe myself that I watched the entire video. I’ve watched so many interviews of anti-zionist rabbis but to watch a knowledgeable rabbi wants to live under Islamic khilafah system blows my mind. Great interview and history lesson!
@aroncarvajal7080 of course not I am not a Jew . but Islam allows to marry four Israeli wives not secular liberal feminist so too bad for you I choose and love isreal over Palestine feminists.
29:23 He says that a Sahabi رضي الله عنه stole something and then gave the stolen goods to a jewish man in order to frame him, but the jewish man suspected it to be stolen goods and went to the Prophet ﷺ until Quranic verses were revealed regarding the issue freeing the jewish man of the crime. This interviewer is a liar as such a story never occured, nor was any Verse revealed about such a thing. Is this guy a shi'i? Where did he get this weird story from? He doesn't bring any reference, yet ascribes it to the Qur'an and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Who is this interviewer?
Narrated Al-Mughirah Ibn Shu'bah رضي الله عنه: I heard the Prophet ﷺ saying: "Ascribing false things to me is not like ascribing false things to anyone else. Whosoever tells a lie against me intentionally then surely let him occupy his seat in Fire." [Sahih al-Bukhari » Funerals (Al-Janaa'iz) » Hadith 1291]
As an ROMANIAN, I totally agree with the Rabbi Haim ! My great grandfather was killed by the nazis only because, he together with others romanians opposed the nazis ! They were not jews we ar enot jews our children are not jews ! We see the exact treatment being applied to the PLESTINIANS people that our family had ! We stand we the PALESTINIANS people same rights for everyone on their birth place !
You can stand with the Muslims from that land how much you want to. In the end the Muslims in that region don’t even want to let them in. That has a reason. Instead of virtue signaling on the internet you can also research why Muslim countries don’t want Palestinian Muslims in their land. I’ll give you a small part of the answer: they always cause trouble. Ask Jordan. So if the Muslims don’t want them, why should we care?
Avi Shlaim an iraqi jew, author, historian calls himself an arab jew, tells that same story in his book: "Three Worlds-Memoirs of an Arab- Jew". Excellent book, read it.
Very good book indeed. Lately I read two thought-provoking books. “Zionism during the Holocaust” Author: Tony Greenstein “How the British Invented Communism (and blamed it on the Jews)” Author : Richard Poe Both books are well-sourced and detailed and frankly they challenge preconceived ideas or rather the propaganda with which we have been stuffed into our heads since childhood. This is very similar to what the venerable Rabbi explains, that there are Jews and Jews. I recommend
FINALLY someone spoke about the cliche of zionists doing the same thing that was done to them in WWII. This was the most clear and logical explanation. Please share everywhere you can.
There is no salvation outside of Islam. Anyone who desires a religion other than Islam- their deeds will go to waste & they will not be saved. This rabbi might mean well for palestine, as anyone of any religion, but he is totally misguided on his theology.

I live in Malaysia. There was once a Jewish settlement up north in Penang. They came in early 1800s. Not many of them but a small community of almost 200 people. They had a synagogue and a graveyard. The thing was they were not like the jews we knew. They didn't look like Europeans. They were Iraqis. A bit dark skinned. Their names on their tombstones showed that they had famous ancient jewish surnames. Probably they were from noble Jewish families. However the community didn't grow. For more than 200yrs living here, they only had 110 graves. Most probably many went migrated to other countries. The last Jewish guy died in the late 2000s. Mark the end of Jewish community in Malaysia. He was quite famous and respectable and he to didn't even looked like European. He looked like Persian- Indian guy.
That's because European Jews are exactly that.They are not Semites, they don't descend from Ishaq 'alayhi-salam. They are not related to the Bani israil. They are from Europe in a place that used to be known as Khazaria. They converted from paganism to Judaism in the 8th century. They did this for political reasons; to take a neutral stance because they were caught in between the Muslims in the South and Chtistians in the north who were at war, which. It's why not allowed to do genetic tests in Israel; that's because when people have done them it came out that they are not Semites. Just research 'Khazars'.
Well he should now go and revert to Islam by accepting the truth..IA God helps him. No point shouting encouragement and thanks from the sidelines when God has commanded that you must accept Quran as his final revelation and Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) as his final Messenger..and yet you deny or refute both.
we have to be realistic. in the beginning the neighbouring arab countries thought they were fighting one country - israel - to try and help those displaced by nakba to go home. they lost terribly. because it isn’t one country, is it? it’s the beachhead for the entire western colonisation ideology, the last one and the one they collectively needed to keep to ensure the region never again has control over the trade bottlenecks with Asia which was the reason it became prosperous at a time when western Europe was backward and poor. so the region must be kept divided into many states each of whom cannot exert full sovereignty over the trade links without western assistance. the far east had no hope of independence too, until europe killed itself by the millions in the world wars, and its grip on colonies far away was loose enough that we had a chance to be free. and even then we are still not economically fully out of it. but west asia never had quite as big a chance as we did, did they? they’re much closer to europe and therefore britain. ditto africa. and then the US that came after britain took over their control apparatus didn’t they. it isn’t until very recently with the unexpected runaway success of china, and by extension the economic grouping they’re in (BRICS) that once again, there is hope to finish the final steps of decolonisation. that is why the western bloc has such an irrational hatred of BRICS, whose agenda really is the apparently unobjectionable goal to just sustainably uplift global south masses to a good quality of life. but that is the same as removing those countries from being economically exploited by the neocolonial systems that remained from the colonial era. and now it’s become very clear that colonialism isn’t quite over yet - no matter if the country is impoverished or enjoys wealthy status, none of the non-western countries are free from colonial control except maybe for china, russia, and iran.
@@nurainiarsad7395 in many ways you are right many arabs who faught their graves are still in Palestine. The British lied and made sure that they separate a land of one people into based on religion. Like India and Pakistan etc. The thing most people don't realize is most impactful wars now are not faught by guns anymore.
The Jews had greatest time in Afghanistan but because Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan they vanished to Israel it was not Muslim who created problem to Jews they live in Kabul and Heart province live side by side with their Muslim cousin.very intelligent and nice people.
I can believe that because there were Hindus and Sikhs living in Afghanistan but Sikhs got killed by Muslims. It has come to light that it was Indian Agents who were behind the killings not normal Muslims. Most Sikhs now believe that it wasn’t Muslims who did the killings. Criminals are being used as shooters but media tell the lies and blame Muslims.

@@MohammedNaseer-m1s sure, sure only once the ottomans started to talk about equality for all under the empire Jews started to be attacked by mobs but you people didn’t study history so it hard to blame you
@@MohammedNaseer-m1s humanity lived under Islam? This is a fairytale. Shia and Sunni have been at war for 1400 years. Meanwhile 99.98% of land in M.E today is Sunni Arab ruled. Yet Syria, Iraq, Yemen,Sudan, Libya have seen millions dead and millions made refugee.
It's true. I am of Iranian Jewish background and have been studying this topic for over 2 decades. In Iraq Israel did send terrorists to blow up movie theaters and places where Jews were and it was blamed on the Iraqis supposedly attacking them. But Saddam did do what Israel wanted, meaning tied Israel and the Jews of Iraq so he would make them not wanted and pretty much chased them out. In Iran the Jews mostly left before the Islamic revolution out of fear of the unknown. But they mostly went to the USA and Europe. But because Jewish people were treated well by the Shah of Iran and some had ties with the government, like the monarchists did who supported the Shah they were fearing being targeted. Maybe rightly so. But Iran has the biggest Jewish population in the Middle East outside of Israel. Khomeini declared them a protected people and they have a representative in the majlis. But just like after 9/11 when Bush said that the Muslims in the US are not terrorists and equal citizens you still have some ignorant people who attack them and in Iran even tho they're protected there idiots are everywhere and may see all Jews as Zionists. But my last family members who recently left Iran to the USA said they had no problems and had Muslim business partners. Iran is equally a crappy place to live for most people. They have sanctions and life is hard. Sanctions need to be lifted and reforms made and people won't be leaving, this is my humble opinion...
Professor Avi Shleym is also Iraqi Jew and tells of how his very wealthy family list everything when they left Iraq for "Israel", and became both poor and ostracised there.
It is a rasist colonial project even towards other jews ,, look how ethiopian Jews are treated in Israel despite they having a very old version of juddaism much older than any ashkenazi has..
This makes sense because we Muslims are close to Jews in terms of our religious ideologies meaning oneness of god etc I love Jews please spread love in this hateful world
“David Ben-Gurion and Yitzhak Ben Zvi, later becoming Israel's first Prime Minister and second President, respectively, suggested in a 1918 book written in Yiddish that the fellahin (Palestinians) are descended from ancient Jewish and Samaritan farmers, "Am ha'aretz" (People of the Land), who continued farming the land after the Jewish-Roman Wars and despite the ensuing persecution for their faith. While the wealthier, more educated, and more religious Jews departed and joined centers of religious freedom in the diaspora, many of those who remained converted their religions, first to Christianity, then to Islam.” - David Ben-Gurion and Yitzhak Ben Zvi, The Land of Israel in the Past and the Present, Yad Ben-Zvi, 1980, pp. 196-200.

Jews and Christians will always be allowed to live and practice their religion freely under any true Islamic State but the point of concern is not just their safety in this life but to make them aware that they are at a great risk in their next life if they reject the Last and Final Prophet of Allah Almighty (God) and His Final Revelation.

What’s becoming so obvious to people now is that colonialism has never ended just rebranded with different terms. From Natives indigenous people being called “savages” in the old days to now being called “terrorist” by neocolonialists who are neoliberals, neoconservatives, and zionist. 1) Savages is now “terrorist” 2) Civilizing them is now “bringing them democracy” 3) Colonies is now “territories” We can all see Israel is a colonial project being supported by former and current colonials such as U.S, UK, and others who also control territories of indigenous natives in Caribbean Islands, Pacific Islands, Hawaii, and many more. The liberation of Palestine will definitely give RISE to many indigenous natives around the world to free themselves from western domination. This is the underlying ripple effect that the U.S government and its puppet allies don’t want to happen

@@MohammedNaseer-m1s humanity lived under Islam? This is a fairytale. Shia and Sunni have been at war for 1400 years. Meanwhile 99.98% of land in M.E today is Sunni Arab ruled. Yet Syria, Iraq, Yemen,Sudan, Libya have seen millions dead and millions made refugee.
Just system of Islam? Have you seen what happens to people under Islam rule in the Middle East. It’s nightmare fuel!
Thank you Rabbi Haim Sofer for speaking up for the suffering of the Palestinians. You are so honest and brave. God bless you.
Thank you Rabbi for speaking out against zionism
Wishing for all to live in harmony

We had the pleasure of hosting this Rabbi at our local jummah hall recently
It's true. I am of Iranian Jewish background and have been studying this topic for over 2 decades. In Iraq Israel did send terrorists to blow up movie theaters and places where Jews were and it was blamed on the Iraqis supposedly attacking them. But Saddam did do what Israel wanted, meaning tied Israel and the Jews of Iraq so he would make them not wanted and pretty much chased them out. In Iran the Jews mostly left before the Islamic revolution out of fear of the unknown. But they mostly went to the USA and Europe. But because Jewish people were treated well by the Shah of Iran and some had ties with the government, like the monarchists did who supported the Shah they were fearing being targeted. Maybe rightly so. But Iran has the biggest Jewish population in the Middle East outside of Israel. Khomeini declared them a protected people and they have a representative in the majlis. But just like after 9/11 when Bush said that the Muslims in the US are not terrorists and equal citizens you still have some ignorant people who attack them and in Iran even tho they're protected there idiots are everywhere and may see all Jews as Zionists. But my last family members who recently left Iran to the USA said they had no problems and had Muslim business partners. Iran is equally a crappy place to live for most people. They have sanctions and life is hard. Sanctions need to be lifted and reforms made and people won't be leaving, this is my humble opinion...
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for the insight
Muslim and Jews sit together that's a beautiful things ❤❤❤❤❤
Quality podcast.

Professor Avi Shleym is also Iraqi Jew and tells of how his very wealthy family list everything when they left Iraq for "Israel", and became both poor and ostracised there.
It is a rasist colonial project even towards other jews ,, look how ethiopian Jews are treated in Israel despite they having a very old version of juddaism much older than any ashkenazi has..
Much Love and respect to Rabbi ❤
This bring tears to my eyes thank you rabi sofer
This makes sense because we Muslims are close to Jews in terms of our religious ideologies meaning oneness of god etc I love Jews please spread love in this hateful world
“David Ben-Gurion and Yitzhak Ben Zvi, later becoming Israel's first Prime Minister and second President, respectively, suggested in a 1918 book written in Yiddish that the fellahin (Palestinians) are descended from ancient Jewish and Samaritan farmers, "Am ha'aretz" (People of the Land), who continued farming the land after the Jewish-Roman Wars and despite the ensuing persecution for their faith. While the wealthier, more educated, and more religious Jews departed and joined centers of religious freedom in the diaspora, many of those who remained converted their religions, first to Christianity, then to Islam.”

I am Moroccan and my grandparents lived for years happily with their Jewish fellow -Moroccans. Actually Moroccans in their era saw Jews as even better then Muslims, because they were always honest businessmen and great neighbours.
Thats not True that Moroccans saw them as more honest than the muslims. Maybe som were but dont include all the jews in your equation. And I am moroccan too
Brother Omer with a new Podcast. Can’t wait to get home to watch it ❤
Bless you Rabbi for speaking the truth... Everyone should watch this...
MashAllah...great historical insight and practical examples how minorities lived under the Khilafah.
Funny how there were so many more Jews in Europe than the Middle East huh?
Total bs. Minorities were Constantly humiliated, taxed and pogromed. Muslims genocided 600 million non Muslims including 100 million Jews and 110 million Hindus and enslaved and castrated 20 Million blacks in 14 centuries
NOT ALWAYS
@@Nahrin_AssyrianYou could write essays about the persecution of black people in America & the genocide of the natives for instance. But no, we don't talk about that because they are the world's greatest superpower
Ah! This is how the world should be; more or less - reminded me of a similar experience - Prof Ilan Pappe’s happy family memories.
Prof Avi Shlaim is very publicly outspoken about the same experiences, as a Baghdadi Jew
You are thinking of Avi Shlaim, Ilan Pappe was born in Israel and is Ashkenazi.
@@MarkSudduth1 - sorry - it was Ilhan Pappe parents I was thinking about. Lovely memories but after they moved to Israel his father was denigrated for his knowledge of Arabic and ignorance of Hebrew.
Deep respect for you Rabbi Sir. You are one of the very few trying to promote peace in the Middle East. May Allah protect and bless you. It would be great to see you and Imam Omar Suleiman talk about our faiths and history if possible!
Rabbi great humanity 👏 kosher,sharing meals so much in common. Free 🇵🇸 Palestine 😢😢😢
Alhamdulillah with this interview my brother..
Great man of peace and love ❤️. Paradise awaits you
This is real history
Peace between both faith, leads to harmony 🎉🎉🎉
Interesting conversation.
Such a learned, wise Rabbi. He speaking from personal history and world history in greater depth than most Muslims. Much respect to both.
WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD WE HAVE LEFT BEHIND !
35:50 - From the Rabbis tongue to Gods ears.... InshaAllah !
He speaks bs
@@amicams you, who no body know just said the word bs and just can disappear ...I envy you.... but people like Prof Bernard lewis one of the fathers of orientalism don't even dare to make a slight disagreement because it will be shredded academically he fear somthing here
@@asemalshoura519 he speaks total bs and u too
Fake rabbi😂
@ And you would qualify that statement ...how ?
Because he is speaking against zios ?
Wow, what a speech by this great Rabbi
Just having this dialogue with fellow brothers is great 👍
Huge respect to Rabbi Haim, wish him and his relatives best in both worlds. Thanks for the video! 🌱🌱🌱
Fascinating discussion
I am from India it's so great to know such a interesting part of history
This discussion makes sense thank you
Avi Shlaim has said similar things about how his Iraqi Jewish family ended up leaving Iraq…
❤❤ such inspiring speaker restore our faith in kindness
Truly aspiring on how he speaks the true side story even better than some so-called Muslims.
I understand why Quran talks abt some Jews who’s rebellious towards God and some Jews that He promises paradise bcuz there’s men of learning and humility in them. ❤
May Allah guide you (Rabbi) n others to Islam, Allahu Aameen 🤲
Allah bless and protect you Rabbi Haim❤
Hasbi Allah Wa Ni-Am Al Wakil 🤲📿

Jews and Christians will always be allowed to live and practice their religion freely under any true Islamic State but the point of concern is not just their safety in this life but to make them aware that they are at a great risk in their next life if they reject the Last and Final Prophet of Allah Almighty (God) and His Final Revelation.
😂😂😂
Name one Islamic state where everyone can practise their religion freely.
😂😂😂😂 Blatant lies
STOP UR NONSENSE
WE DONT WANT to hear that.
Also ,these countries belonged to us before the invasion of quraish moslems
@@Xlr92013There's no concept of "state" in Islam. We know of Caliphates, not Islamic states.
None of the "Islamic states" are actually Islamic, that's a misconception
@@josephking1947Zios can't tell the truth even if their lives depended on it. You live in a parallel universe it seems
Thank you Rabbi 🇵🇸🇵🇸🍉✌️✌️
Rabbi you're a treasure of historical knowledge! May Allah always guide you and bless you
God Bless u rabbi
U are my brothers
🇵🇸❤️🇵🇸❤️🇵🇸❤️
One word - Alhamdulillah
Nice. nearly forgotten the truth how beautifully Jews and Muslim walk, live, pray, eat and can work together.
This deserves millions of views and likes.
Maimonides, Musa Ibn Maymun or RamBum was the first physician of the great Salahuddin. He lived throughout the Islamic kingdom. Born in Al-Andalus and he eventually became the Jewish leader of his people in Fustat Eygpt.
The Jewish people were like our cousins, and we thrived together
❤the rabbi
Great man
BLESS YOU RABBI...THE TRUTH...GOD S MESSAGES ARE ONE...BASED ON THE TEN COMMANDEMENTS...
AL FORKANE.....
Thank you, Rabbi to clarify what happened and what's going on.
Amazing host very humble informative and respectful. ما شاء الله
This discussion must make it viral
Very Enlightening God Bless you Rabbi
Takbeer!
Thank you Rav Sofer!
I'm Jewish and frankly I know enough about Torah to be amazed frustrated and disgusted
WHY ARE THERE SO FEW ANTI ZIONIST RABBAIM ??
I really wish someone would answer this
Highly disturbing !😢
Time for counter hasbara and coexistence--> peace
The vast majority are anti-zionist.
Most orthodox rabbis are in fact anti-Zionist. But they don’t come out as “pro Palestinian”. That’s the whole issue!!
@@zvell636thanks for that point... Something that amazed me, I spoke to a NY Rabbi, and he said that even if there was peace from the very beginning, he would still refuse the modern state of Israel. I am not kidding, he said it's like idol worship. imagine that !!! I was blown away...
@@josephpekkar4783 look up the book veyoel moshe from Satmar rebbe.
This book is the Halachic work against Zionism. The problem with Zionism didn’t start with the Palestinian issue, is just another problem which followed.
Maashaaalah great history 👏 👍 very brave honest humanity very educational topic will blessings 🙌
Excellent interview
Rabbi May God Bless You
Respect ❣️❣️🇧🇩
I subscribed, great channel! Amazing podcast. Very insightful everyone should see it.
This is a historical interview
Maybe one day true Jews and Muslim can live together again
Thank you Rabbi for sharing the truth
What a breath of fresh air listening to RaBBI Haim Sofer is, True...the Jews living in Muslim land is more secure living in peace and flourished in every sector of society wether in business, science, education of all sorts practicing their faith, they have the biggest freedom and protection. MashaALLAH! I pray to give Rabbi Sofer long and healthy life to keep on spreading the true teaching of Judaism!!! Not all Jew are Zionist!
❤Peace and Blessings ❤
May He The One and Only Creator shower His blessings on this Rabbi for speaking out the Truth and Truth will always prevail and distroy deception and lies.
I invite the viewer's of this video to seek knowledge to connect the dots of the end times and learn Islamic Eschetology from non other than ❤ Sheikh Imran Hosein ❤
what a video from brother Omer and Rabbi sofer
COYS
amazing and an inspiration for everyone out there.
What’s becoming so obvious to people now is that colonialism has never ended just rebranded with different terms. From Natives indigenous people being called “savages” in the old days to now being called “terrorist” by neocolonialists who are neoliberals, neoconservatives, and zionist.
1) Savages is now “terrorist”
2) Civilizing them is now “bringing them democracy”
3) Colonies is now “territories”
We can all see Israel is a colonial project being supported by former and current colonials such as U.S, UK, and others who also control territories of indigenous natives in Caribbean Islands, Pacific Islands, Hawaii, and many more.
The liberation of Palestine will definitely give RISE to many indigenous natives around the world to free themselves from western domination. This is the underlying ripple effect that the U.S government and its puppet allies don’t want to happen
Their biggest nightmare!!!!!😂😂😂😂
