All the Ottoman subjects including the Christian Armenians, Greeks, Coptics as well as the Muslims dressed like that. It was basically a Western suit with a fez (the cylindrical hat).
This was a good video. I liked how you blended Islamic history into a video about western fashion. That was a nice touch. Also I liked how you talked about early British people who embraced Islam. You should do some videos on each of them. Also since you look like Quilliam, you could do a video like this one on his life.

I'm not connected to Britain in any way (other than them and the french fucking up my country of origin) but thanks to the British convert brothers and sisters I feel like this cool fashion is part of my peoples history, too (though ofc primarily british). Thank you for introducing it!
You look undeniably dapper, milkshake moustache and all اللهم بارك The outfit really comes together doesn’t it. It felt good to get a glimpse into the life of early converts and what their day might have looked like. Where they would have gone study and pray. Fascinating.
Hands down ! What an amazing video! MashaAllah, you are talented. I hope you will be making more of this type of content in the future iA. Stay blessed
I'm not a native English and as a science student I've a deep connection with history from philosophical and sociological view. That's why I've a very deep connection with England.
This was amazing! This felt like one of those Muslims in Poland documentary from you. Also yesterday I saw that you released the documentary first on Polish embassy, I don't think you ever mentioned about this achievement on RUclips. Keep up the great work :) I would love to see documentaries like these. I don't know if you plan to make another one on Poland.
This looked like you had so much fun making this film! Really enjoyed watching it and your immersion back into Victorian England! I had to do a re-wind to check that I saw what I saw - excellent time travelling, Mashallah! 🤣
This video got recommended to me after playing red dead redemption which is also a game set in the Victorian era, and I’m a Muslim Arab myself so this is perfect 💕💕💕💕
As a Turk who is interested in history, I knew during Ottoman time attire depended on one's religion, place they live and their social class. But I would never have thought there was a time that what a classic İstanbul gentleman wears is same as a British Muslim gentleman. Very interesting.
Dr William, you have put to video, what I have always wanted !!! All British Muslims should really dress up. Historically the Muslims of the Ottoman , Mughal and Persian empires dressed up to the MAX 😅, with beautiful elaborate costumes !! We should revive this practice!! Im tired & sad of young Muslims attending Friday prayers in their tracksuit pants 😢 !!
@@XYZ-nh5ti here in the UK, many people are both disconnected from Islam and their ancestors' cultural practices sadly! But there's pockets where people care
It's interesting learning about the Islamic side of the Victorian era, and the Brits who converted to Islam. I feel like this is a forgotten part of British heritage with the likes of Britain First and EDL.
@@OmarAlikaj they must consider them as traitors or "not really Muslim". Poland had Muslims since the 14th century and yet Polish people are divided on the issue

I would love to see a video on what British Victorian Muslim women would have worn and if there were any differences from the non muslim victorian women.
At Malaysia, we, Malaysians still keeping our beautiful Traditional Muslim clothes. Africans also did that as well. It's pretty sad to see there are many Arabs lacks of this. I mean most westerners mistaken of Muslims' clothes! They thought Muslims lacks of fashions.
@@pokemontrainerneville5236 I've worn mine since 2014 regularly and so far it's been pretty solid. I've had modern t-shirts and shirts completely worn out in a few months. However I haven't done any outdoor or manual work in them!
Victorian and pre world War 20th century fashion were the last bastion of rich, quality fashion. Nowadays fashion is reduced to an infatuation with quantity and the fashion itself has a grotesque monoculture, no richness - made for everyone, yet for no one!
That Fez was originally Tunisian under name Shashia which the Andalusian immigrants created and improved later and had differen forms such the long one which called İstanbulli and the original one called Shashia that şis still ısed in Tunisia libya and Nigeria and produced in Tunisia and the istubulli styşe spread in the east . the shashia liek is still used by greek traditional soldier that blue one
Don't worry, Victorian fashion era for Victorian Muslims is what UK could have been had they not resist the Final Testament. In the end, we all submit to The One God in however way we look like.
Great channel. Can you recommend a quality English translation of the Quran? I’m interested in language and would love to know what is actually said in it opposed to what I hear in media from both Muslims and non Muslims. Thanks!
That's a strange preference for a Muslim, I expected you to talk about the traditional outfit of the Arabs from this period, although the Turkish hat is a nice touch.

that's not only how British victorian Muslims used to wear but how Egyptian and Syrian Muslims and christians used to wear in the 19th century

Muslims dressed like this as well. But usually the higher class. Same with Christians I think
