Wow I’m in grad school and never knew that the scientific method was developed during the Islamic golden age. Thank you for featuring this important time in our history.
@@HN-fz6um according to Sir Francis Bacon and his Scientific methodology. The myth of the Islamic Golden Age of mathematics and scientific discovery is one often repeated but never really considered in the context of the era in which they claim to be Islamic in nature. The vast libraries in Alexandria and Nalanda are just 2 of which Islam destroyed, many others including Bagdad, Mosul (Nineveh), Odantapuri, and Somapuri just to name a few others of note. The thinking of Islamic leaders were stated by Umar, "if it doesn't say what is in the Koran it is useless, so burn it. If it says the same thing as the Koran, we already have it so likewise burn it." The untold millions of scrolls, scriptures and documents, literature, science, and mathematics destroyed are without measure. If you are still of the thinking that their scholars still had algebra, and some of the sciences, you would still be mistaken. There was a small window of indoctrination where the previous culture was tolerated for around 50-150 years of conquest. From these periods of time you have people who were still alive or taught by survivors of their old culture especially the Copts Greeks and the Persian cultures. Arabic numerals actually came from India. Their astronomy from the Persian, Greek and Egyptian cultures. Islam leaves cultural diversity a bloody stump wherever its transplanted or an invasion occurs and becomes the dominant culture group. The claim that Islam brought on the Renaissance is also a joke. The destruction of Constantinople caused the Scholars and artisans of the Greeks to flood Western Europe so I guess that's one way to credit Islam for the Renaissance. Long story short is that everywhere you look at where Islam is strictly practiced today is in abject poverty, illiteracy and ignorance are the norm. It was unique to the belief of a knowable God who created a knowable universe in Protestant Christianity that widespread literacy in Europe was developed, and the scientific and empirical sciences were created. Islam dose not mean peace, but surrender and I will forever try to reach out to those who I can show the light.
@@joels310 [the scientific method was developed during the Islamic golden age] that's what I am talking about, you said it was not and also the Islamic golden age was led by the Abbasid caliphate, which came much after Umar that you're talking about and Islam has two main branches Sunni which makes 80% of Muslims and Shia which makes 20% of Muslims and Shia does not recognize Umar as a leader , which still has nothing to do with Islamic golden age and Islam insist on science and learning whether a leader of Islam does or not and you will find that in the Quran {my English is not that good so pls ignore any mistake}

@@Aaron_1428 just to be sure, there's more than 600 words in Portuguese language that come from the Arabic, a legacy we preserve from the many centuries when Muslim powers ruled these lands.

Muslim/Arabic heritage in Portugal is very cherished and is a natural component of our culture.
I've heard the opposite, that being that many people hate islam in that region even calling it backward and that the era muslims ruled was an era of darkness and backwardness ; which is clearly false, muslims produced a golden age in spain with unprecedented levels of advancement in every field.

@🍁ريان it isn't a fact. It's still a theory. That Muslims want to overstate as *a fact* to try and make Islam (which even in the theory wasn't the result of Islam but despite of it) fit into a modern world. So no,...
It played a part in through the exchange of information but to say there wouldn't be one is a bit far fetched. Since it's mainly attributed to the transfer of Greek/Roman texts, traders, and scholars that left the Byzantine Empire to other Christan states. I'm not saying it didn't contribute to it but the way you put it is pretty biased and extremely oversimplified.
It's a sad state of affairs that some people won't appreciate this video. Just because their bigoted worldview won't let them acknowledge, much less venerate, the contributions of great innovators who happened to be muslims.

one thing I absolutely love about the Islamic golden age is that you are not forced to choose a single subject/field and stick to it for the rest of your life. something peeks your interest; you go learn it, research it, and hopefully give the world a great invention! you can be a theologian, philosopher, astronomer, doctor, historian, anything under the sun all at the same time!! this type of intellectual freedom is unthinkable in today's society.

@NEW Commenter if we talk about scholar stuff, it's muslim n chinese that the best. Indians meh. Hinduism is their biggest wall. About Persia, the ancient persia or persia under muslim empire?

You'd be wrong in thinking we worked together 😅 Check out Al-Andaluz, every religion was inferior to Islam and was subject to taxes, you literally had to pay if you wanted to practice your faith
@@ryanalexander3088 You're ignorant. Non-Muslims in the caliphate payed a jizya tax (small fixed amount) and Muslims payed a zakat tax (which is based on percentage of wealth, hence generally being a larger tax than the jizya). If someone couldn't afford either tax then they did not have to pay it.
@@Tewfen1337 I don't know about Caliphate but in India, Jizya was twice the Zakat in the reign of Aurangzeb. He didn't exempted even monks and beggars who were traditionally exempted from all kind of taxes in India. Earlier during Delhi sultanate, there was an additional tax on Hindus called Kharaz. Both taxes were so high that many Hindus had no option other than converting to Islam to evade taxes. Historian of Khilji dynasty writes that Qazi of Bayanah advised Sultan Allauddin that imposing Jizya is necessary "to show contempt and to humiliate Hindus." Interestingly Sultan Sikander Butshikan of Kashmir imposed both Jizya and Zakat on Hindus. (You can read it on Wikipedia page Jizya/India). So Ryan is not tht wrong.
@@puneetmishra4726 I agree the rulership of Muslims in India was brutal. But I was specifically talking about the caliphates, not the rulership in India. This person made a claim that non Muslims were treated unfairly under the caliphates in Cordoba, which is opposite of reality.
What really amazes me is the poetic and complete synergy between the Arabic and Persian cultures under the Islamic umbrella. Though some struggles happened between both cultures, but they really adapted to each other, with an impressive level of harmony. One can know this when he observes the high number of Persian and Arabic scholars interacting freely and peacefully throughout the middle ages. Seldom do you see two dominate cultures interacting with such ease and harmony.

@NEW Commenter Knowledge doesn't come from nowhere, of course, all of those Muslim scholars had to research and find sources, most of those sources were either greek or Indian...and lots of their knowledge came from them digging the holes themselves But we can not deny the effort and the years those scholars have spent seeking that knowledge, improving it and finally perfecting it for the time. Just like coding...yes the basics of that came from Muslim scholars but we can not deny the people's effort in initiating those studies into computers, Ai and such Also, Arabs nowadays use " Arabic Hindu" numerals while others use "Arabic" numerals, the first is a straight-up Indian knowledge...the second was inspired but not truly originating from Indian numerals

Learning and advocating decimal-based numerals doesn't get enough praise imho. Now we're all so used to it, it just seems natural, but try to learn the Mayan duodecimal system and do math with it, and you'll soon discover that wrapping your head around non-intuitive numeral systems is bloody difficult, at least it is for me. So kudos to the scholars who saw the merits in the system and advocated for it's adoption.
Muslim scholar mostly never claimed something as their own work, they will mentioned or cited the sources, its not the matter of who find it first , in fact humanity cannot stand on its own, every invention is just another development of what have done before by their predecessor,it not something that come out of the thin air.

Love the video. Consider making one about Muslim scholars from Central Asia. I read somewhere about Ulugh Begh’s observatory. I bet there were other scholars whose works aren’t well known because of the geography
@10:39 This is something that I did not know, that Muslims used astrology to know in which direction of Mecca. It’s astounding when religion and science are used hand-in-hand.
Astrology is NOT a science though, it's a pseudoscience. A science explains things, astrology does not explain anything. They simply studied the positions of stars and motion of the Moon to figure out when to start fasting and which direction to pray. It's like studying geography (natural features like tall mountains, a lake, river) when traveling through a region so you don't get lost.
So, this is a very good video. As you noted in the last video, Islamic scholars basically viewed themselves as extensions of the Indian, Greek and Iranian scholastic traditions. The Arabic/Indian numerals came into being through translations of astronomical texts. After the Ummayyad conquest of Sindh under Muhammad bin Qasim, Islamic scholars entered into a two-way exchange of ideas with Hindu scholars. This is especially true in medicine and astrology, since, at the time, South Asia was considered to have the best doctors in the world. If I'm not mistaken, the number system was introduced through the translation of astrological texts, namely the Brahmagupta Siddhanta. This translated corpus was known in Arabic as "Zeej as-Sindhind." According to Kitab al-Fihrist (an ancient catalog of Arabic texts) the libraries in Baghdad held translations of many key texts that were translated from Sanskrit. This "Zeej al-Sindhind" (Sindhind is a misanalysis of the word "Siddhanta") was used to develop much of Islamic astrology and many of the Islamic calendar systems, including the Jalali calendar. This isn't a hidden fact, since many medieval Islamic scholars (e.g., Masudi) praise Hindu scholars. Unfortunately, it seems that a lot of the scholarship on this topic is published in Arabic, but it stands in stark contradiction of how Hindu-Muslim relations are portrayed historically. Also, as a side note, the "Tajika Shastra" ("Tajika" is what Indians called Arabs during the early Medieval period) is a collection of astrology methods that were translated from Persian and Arabic into Sanskrit. These methods are now widely used in modern Vedic astrology.
Thumb up for the writing font of latin letters with arabic letters style ( the arabic T replacing the latin a or o and the arabic Y replacing the latin S). There is much creativity and knowldege put into making this font. I insisted in pointing this out since this info may not seem obvious for everyone. Fun fact, in the arabic language another set of numerals called indian numbers is used while in latin written languages the arabic numerals are used. When we had in math exams "write the solutions in arabic numerals" we students were totally confused in which set of numerals to write the solutions since we learned maths in French or English which used a set of numerals different from the arabic language while ignoring that numbers in French or English were called arabic numerals. Keep the good job.

From these periods of time you have people who were still alive or taught by survivors of their old culture especially the Copts Greeks and the Persian cultures. Arabic numerals actually came from India. Their astronomy from the Persian, Greek and Egyptian cultures. Islam leaves cultural diversity a bloody stump wherever its transplanted or an invasion occurs and becomes the dominant culture group. The claim that Islam brought on the Renaissance is also a joke. The destruction of Constantinople caused the Scholars and artisans of the Greeks to flood Western Europe so I guess that's one way to credit Islam for the Renaissance.

The major contributors to any 'Islamic Golden Age' were apostates mostly. Those unwilling to accept the Qu'ran's insistence that there is no such thing as cause and effect because Allah wills all things. A doorknob works because each and every time the ever present hand of God moves the mechanisms. It's a freak show.
I disagree with that
@🍁ريان
it isn't a fact. It's still a theory. That Muslims want to overstate as *a fact* to try and make Islam (which even in the theory wasn't the result of Islam but despite of it) fit into a modern world.
So no,...
It played a part in through the exchange of information but to say there wouldn't be one is a bit far fetched. Since it's mainly attributed to the transfer of Greek/Roman texts, traders, and scholars that left the Byzantine Empire to other Christan states. I'm not saying it didn't contribute to it but the way you put it is pretty biased and extremely oversimplified.
Better way to put it I would say is it wouldn't be as impactful.
It's a sad state of affairs that some people won't appreciate this video. Just because their bigoted worldview won't let them acknowledge, much less venerate, the contributions of great innovators who happened to be muslims.

You'd be wrong in thinking we worked together 😅 Check out Al-Andaluz, every religion was inferior to Islam and was subject to taxes, you literally had to pay if you wanted to practice your faith
@@ryanalexander3088 You're ignorant. Non-Muslims in the caliphate payed a jizya tax (small fixed amount) and Muslims payed a zakat tax (which is based on percentage of wealth, hence generally being a larger tax than the jizya). If someone couldn't afford either tax then they did not have to pay it.
@@Tewfen1337 I don't know about Caliphate but in India, Jizya was twice the Zakat in the reign of Aurangzeb. He didn't exempted even monks and beggars who were traditionally exempted from all kind of taxes in India. Earlier during Delhi sultanate, there was an additional tax on Hindus called Kharaz. Both taxes were so high that many Hindus had no option other than converting to Islam to evade taxes. Historian of Khilji dynasty writes that Qazi of Bayanah advised Sultan Allauddin that imposing Jizya is necessary "to show contempt and to humiliate Hindus." Interestingly Sultan Sikander Butshikan of Kashmir imposed both Jizya and Zakat on Hindus. (You can read it on Wikipedia page Jizya/India).

Kids can learn more from a single Kings and Generals video than they can in a whole year of history class
yea but doesnt prove either tell you the truth
Can’t wait for the next episode!! Brilliant series and information as usual!
This brings pride in a glorious past and sorrow for the present day Muslims…..inshallah a glorious future is waiting for the Muslim world, nationalism killed the spirit of brotherhood Islam brings forth.

Thank you for making this!! About time our heritage got some recognitio!! Bravo
7:51 - And he wrote Rubaiyat, one of the greatest collections of poetry ever.
Persians / Iranians have offered alot to the world. the world should be thankful.
Exactly... almost all islamic Hadeeth collectors and scientists were Persian.
yeah.
Rumeysa Well kinda, Bukhari was Uzbek.
he possibly had some Iranian ancestry as welll duhh. Cuz they were in the Persian spear of influence, but you’re right.

Ibn sina is a turk?
Go take your milk and sleep
@@scourgeofgodattila3827 Turks never produced useful science! Gokturk state was a primitive state that produced nothing but wagging wars! Seljuk state was heavily Persainized and wasn't genuinely Turkic. Similarly, Ottoman empire marked the downfall of Islamic science buy banning typing machine and modern equipment that were then invented by Westerners. Turkish empires were the worst period in Islamic history!
More videos like this please! Great stuff! I was especially pleased when you said arabic numerals comes from the Muslims, and I was like no but wait it comes from Hindus first, and then you confirmed just that! I really enjoyed it, thank you!
A magnificent documentary. My appreciation for the revealing knowledge and facts being put together. Those who come before us, amaze us more than I could imagine due to their lack of technology and information back then, they manage to invent cutting-edge technology and formula that I can only dream of.
Thank you for another informative and entertaining video :)
i was waiting for this, was looking for the next episode on your channel yesterday :D
After a month's dose of your videos now my teacher begs me to stop history on islam. Such a satisfaction to see those moments.
ppl hates Islam with apparently no reason. It is not surprising if your teacher do so .. These kind of ppl develope a hate towards Arabs and Muslms because we were better than them and now we are competing with them in science and so on regardless the Arbic Puppets (leaders) who always serving their agendas to turn us down. I am saying we are smarter, but we are very compatitive, and they have to admit that and stop attacking our religion and accusing it with llies like saying we are just camel riders who only know blood thrust and lower thinkings. Actually lower thinkings is in their channels when these people try to make us look bloodthirsty and make discussions about that WITHOUT inviting a single Islamic guest to have a debate or at least to talk about it. Because they know they are lying and fooling the viewer of their poisonous programs...
@@husamal-maamari6361 Uh I am referring to my islamiat teacher. He always ask me to stop because I have more command on history
@@husamal-maamari6361 by the way you are correct about opposition to Islam just because they are afraid.
Kudos to the person doing the visuals. I like the style and it greatly helps explain the concepts.
Ikr , that style is amazing
This is a very interesting and informative scientific documentary. I really like this channel.
You should check out the enlightened arab's channel. You speak and understand English so I'm sure you would love what he has to offer.
@@kafial5068 Thanks. Can you share a link or write the name of the channel?
@@azer_hashim Support this guy generously in comment section and invite your friends to join his junta. He is an extraordinary guy. Blind I have learnt and still the most profound reader I came upon.
Wish you made this video 2 weeks ago :D I was just finishing up my thesis on the topic of "Alchemy", with a subsection being Alchemy in Islam, would've helped a lot, but watching this I realize that I everything I wrote was perfect.
Great episode!
Can’t wait for part 3 anymore!
Love the video. Consider making one about Muslim scholars from Central Asia. I read somewhere about Ulugh Begh’s observatory. I bet there were other scholars whose works aren’t well known because of the geography
Thank you 🙏 AGAIN for your awesome work 👍. It was beautiful in every aspect especially the calligraphy and artwork.
great work honestly, keep going 😎💪🏼
thanks to K&G for such a great content.every Civilisation have given something good.thus this world became what it is today.
@10:39 This is something that I did not know, that Muslims used astrology to know in which direction of Mecca. It’s astounding when religion and science are used hand-in-hand.
Astrology is NOT a science though, it's a pseudoscience. A science explains things, astrology does not explain anything. They simply studied the positions of stars and motion of the Moon to figure out when to start fasting and which direction to pray. It's like studying geography (natural features like tall mountains, a lake, river) when traveling through a region so you don't get lost.
Astrology is haram dude. Do you know al birrouny and Ibn haytham
So, this is a very good video. As you noted in the last video, Islamic scholars basically viewed themselves as extensions of the Indian, Greek and Iranian scholastic traditions. The Arabic/Indian numerals came into being through translations of astronomical texts. After the Ummayyad conquest of Sindh under Muhammad bin Qasim, Islamic scholars entered into a two-way exchange of ideas with Hindu scholars. This is especially true in medicine and astrology, since, at the time, South Asia was considered to have the best doctors in the world.
If I'm not mistaken, the number system was introduced through the translation of astrological texts, namely the Brahmagupta Siddhanta. This translated corpus was known in Arabic as "Zeej as-Sindhind." According to Kitab al-Fihrist (an ancient catalog of Arabic texts) the libraries in Baghdad held translations of many key texts that were translated from Sanskrit. This "Zeej al-Sindhind" (Sindhind is a misanalysis of the word "Siddhanta") was used to develop much of Islamic astrology and many of the Islamic calendar systems, including the Jalali calendar. This isn't a hidden fact, since many medieval Islamic scholars (e.g., Masudi) praise Hindu scholars. Unfortunately, it seems that a lot of the scholarship on this topic is published in Arabic, but it stands in stark contradiction of how Hindu-Muslim relations are portrayed historically.
Also, as a side note, the "Tajika Shastra" ("Tajika" is what Indians called Arabs during the early Medieval period) is a collection of astrology methods that were translated from Persian and Arabic into Sanskrit. These methods are now widely used in modern Vedic astrology.
Thumb up for the writing font of latin letters with arabic letters style ( the arabic T replacing the latin a or o and the arabic Y replacing the latin S). There is much creativity and knowldege put into making this font. I insisted in pointing this out since this info may not seem obvious for everyone. Fun fact, in the arabic language another set of numerals called indian numbers is used while in latin written languages the arabic numerals are used. When we had in math exams "write the solutions in arabic numerals" we students were totally confused in which set of numerals to write the solutions since we learned maths in French or English which used a set of numerals different from the arabic language while ignoring that numbers in French or English were called arabic numerals. Keep the good job.
