    He has a famous book called ‘the crown of kings ‘ where he talks about how to get power and keep it .
    He brings a lot of stories about ancient kings from persia Mesopotamia and the early islamic empires
    The books is very similar to the prince of machiavelli

      Abū ‘Ubayd Allāh said to me that Muḥammad ibn al-‘Abbās the grammarian related:
      I heard al-Jāḥiẓ say, “I am paralyzed on my left side, so that even if I pinch with scissors I do not feel it, whereas on my right side there is a swelling of the joints [neuritis], so that even if flies pass over it I feel the pain.

      And he was right.
      Allah claims numerous times that the Qur’an is fully detailed with full explanation. Exposition of everything. That Allah left nothing out of the book. That it is the Best of Hadith. Best of Tafsir. Warns against any Hadith after it. That it is Perfected. Completed. Sufficient guide. Clear. Al furqan the criterion. And all the messenger spoke of and followed.

      Allah also warns against following any Narrations traditions (Hadith) after the quran.
      ‎ فَبِأَىِّ حَدِيثٍۭ بَعْدَهُۥ يُؤْمِنُونَ
      77:50 Then in what Hadith after it2 will they believe?3
      ‎تِلْكَ ءَايَـٰتُ ٱللَّـهِ نَتْلُوهَا عَلَيْكَ بِٱلْحَقِّ فَبِأَىِّ حَدِيثٍۭ بَعْدَ ٱللَّـهِ وَءَايَـٰتِهِۦ يُؤْمِنُونَ
      45:6 Those are the proofs1 of God; We recite them to thee in truth.2 Then in what Hadith after God and His proofs4 will they believe?
      ‎ ٱللَّـهُ نَزَّلَ أَحْسَنَ ٱلْحَدِيثِ كِتَـٰبًا مُّتَشَـٰبِهًا مَّثَانِىَ تَقْشَعِرُّ مِنْهُ جُلُودُ ٱلَّذِينَ يَخْشَوْنَ رَبَّهُمْ ثُمَّ تَلِينُ جُلُودُهُمْ وَقُلُوبُهُمْ إِلَىٰ ذِكْرِ ٱللَّـهِ ذَٰلِكَ هُدَى ٱللَّـهِ يَهْدِى بِهِۦ مَن يَشَآءُ وَمَن يُضْلِلِ ٱللَّـهُ فَمَا لَهُۥ مِنْ هَادٍ
      39:23 God has sent down the best narration:1 a Writ2 of paired comparison3 whereat shiver the skins of those who fear their Lord; then their skins and their hearts soften to the remembrance4 of God - that is the guidance of God wherewith He guides whom He wills; and whom God sends astray, for him there is no guide.
      ‎وَمِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ مَن يَشْتَرِى لَهْوَ ٱلْحَدِيثِ لِيُضِلَّ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّـهِ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ وَيَتَّخِذَهَا هُزُوًا أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ مُّهِينٌ
      31:6 And among men is he who purchases the diversion of Hadith/idle tales to lead astray from the path of God without knowledge, and takes it in mockery: those have a humiliating punishment.
      ‎أَوَلَمْ يَنظُرُوا۟ فِى مَلَكُوتِ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا خَلَقَ ٱللَّـهُ مِن شَىْءٍ وَأَنْ عَسَىٰٓ أَن يَكُونَ قَدِ ٱقْتَرَبَ أَجَلُهُمْ فَبِأَىِّ حَدِيثٍۭ بَعْدَهُۥ يُؤْمِنُونَ

      ‎أَفَبِهَـٰذَا ٱلْحَدِيثِ أَنتُم مُّدْهِنُونَ
      56:81 Is it then this narration1 you disdain
      -
      And thus have We appointed for every prophet an enemy - satans of servi and Domini- instructing one another in the decoration of speech as delusion, (and had thy Lord willed, they would not have done it; so leave thou them and what they fabricate)
      And that the hearts of those who believe not in1 the Hereafter might incline thereto, and be pleased therewith, and that they might commit what they are committing.
      “Is it other than God I should seek as judge when He it is that sent down to you the Writ set out and detailed?” And those to whom We gave the Writ know that it is sent down from thy Lord with the truth; so be thou not of those who doubt.
      And perfected is the word of thy Lord in truth and justice; there is none to change His words; and He is the Hearing, the Knowing.
      And if thou obey most of those upon the earth, they will lead thee astray from the path of God; they follow only assumption, and they are only guessing.
      Thy Lord: He best knows who strays from His path; and He best knows the guided.
      So eat of that over which the name of God has been remembered, if you believe in1 His proofs.
      And what is with you that you eat not of that over which the name of God has been remembered when He has set out and detailed1 to you what is forbidden you save that you be compelled thereto? And many lead astray by their vain desires, without knowledge; thy Lord: He best knows the transgressors. - 6:112-119

    (Disclaimer: there are some “experts” which claim that alevism has nothing to do with Islam.

      The entire book is full of individuals that had ideas that came close to evolution. But the facts are clear....Charles Darwin was the first to not only come up with a verifiable testable scientific theory of evolution....but he completely revolutionized the life sciences.
      Alfred Wallace also wrote his famous paper....but it was Darwin who came up with natural selection years before Wallace send him his famous letter.

    So the electron is really condensed energy made up from the electromagnetic field....
    Now the negative charge around the electron is just the field being pulled in by the electron ...
    And for the nucleus of the Adam the same thing with positive charge.....
    And the same thing with the neutral charge inside the nucleus....
    Now whenever negative charge meets negative charge the field around the electron is the same density as the other field around the other electron (and of course I'm talking about the charge around the electron or the energy around the electron)so ... Because the negative charge around the electrons are the same density they bounce off one another....
    And whenever positive charge meets negative charge they are different densities so they pull into one another....
    But positive charge and neutral charge are around the same density so they pull into one another.... And positive charge is more condensed so it condenses the neutral charge inside of it....
    Then whenever the electron comes along with its negative charge then the energy that's already condensed inside the positive and neutral fields around the nucleus becomes even more condensed inside the electron and that energy that is condensed inside the electron made up of the neutral and positive charges....... Pulls on the neutral and positive charges more because it is more condensed and they're around the same condensity... So whenever the election leaves the electron does not have a strong enough pull to pull on the positive and neutral charge that it made more condensed inside of it so the electron moves away from the nucleus and then the nucleus pulls out the energy that was in the electron and that creates a photon my name is dylan stone

      Wrong, this is a clear description of evolution by natural selection. He explicitly states that the change in species comes from successful traits being passed on to offspring, not from change caused by an individual organism growing a longer neck to reach leaves or changing color to match foliage. The only thing he didn’t get was the mechanism that produces advantageous traits, I.e. mutation.

    It sounds like the Islamic world was nearly 800 years ahead of the rest of the world, in regards to science.

      If we go by your logic than the later enlightenment Europeans inherited it from the Arabs.

      @@blackpalacemusicNo , your wording clearly indicate that you downplay the achievements and the sophistication of the Islamicate at that time. Would you also look down at Greeks as today’s Greeks are nowhere close to the Ancient Greeks in terms of their position in the world in intellectual pursuits?

    There are some very glaring ommissions in this video. There's not a single depiction or image in this video that reflects any discernable any Cushite facial features for Al jahiz. You also ommit any mention of his classic work on race & racism, "The Boast Of Superiority Of The Black Race Over The Whites", which was a pre-cursor of the epic Zengh Rebellion in Baghdad. What a dismissive "whitewash" of history

    I don't know how to contact you via email, so I will leave a comment here that has nothing to do with the video.
    I am one of your patreon acolytes. I am also a scholar of shamanism. I know you have mostly been sticking to the traditional canon of "World Religions" but I would love to see your take on the problematical construction of "shamanism" and how it is understood by scholars.

      ​@@user-wb8iu1hl6iPure Arabs were black at his time, he wasn't mixed. It's funny because Bilal is referred to as black, but he was also mixed, his father was a Arab. His mother an Abyssinian, yet he is jet black, because his father was just as black as his mother. Even in the Bible, the Arabs are called black.
