I feel like Al-Farabi is underrated when it comes to political philosopher. Like other Western philosophers. Defo Include more of Al-Farabi's works in later videos because Al-Farabi really did have an enormous impact.
I'm grateful of your confirmation for his talent in music instrument(s)? which none ever achieved that expertise. What my book told,after being in discussion along with many other scholars inside the palace of the caliph harun abdul Rashid,solving way better arguments on Islamic sharia,they took a break and at the moment the caliph calls for musicians to perform.he offers to one of musician if he may play,so he starts arranging the instrument called gambus that's what i read of and everyone heard burst in laughter nonstop because of his arrangement. Then he changed it to different one,& made everyone cries.3rd time changed another, & this time everyone in the h palce all were put to sleep,and he walks out of the palace
It is often the case with earlier thinkers in the medieval period that very little primary sources reach us through time. For this reason, not much can be ascertained about al-Farabi’s early life. Only a portion of their texts on philosophy and science have reached us as well, so biographical sources are even less.
‘Islamic Philosophy An Introduction’ by Oliver Leaman is a good beginners book to Islamic philosophy in general and the ideas of various thinkers in the Islamic philosophical tradition. Peter Adamson also has a well written introductory book on the topic. We would also recommend ‘A History of Islamic Philosophy’ by Majid Fakhry for the more advanced reader. ‘Islamic Philosophy from its Origin to the Present’ by S.H Nasr is another option. Perhaps the most comprehensive work is the Routledge ‘History of Islamic Philosophy’ edited by S.H Nasr and Leaman
You’re correct to say Turkey didn’t exist back then. However from the research we have done his ancestry dates back to the people of modern day Turkey or Turkmenistan. That being said, Al-Farabi spoke Persian and grew up among Persian culture.
@@OasesOfWisdom he was a persian according to oldest historical accounts. There is only one account trying to falsely make him a turk to an extent that gave him a name he never had..alturki. stealing persian figures is not anything new..every single persian figure has been claimed by a turk before. Do your research before spreading misinformation.
Farabi was born in Faryab province, north of Afghanistan so basically He belong to Afghanistan's historical heritage and no other country have the right to steal Afghan's heritages. He was, and will be an afghan forever! 🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫😊
Great work, thanks. I'm using some of your videos in some of my courses (particularly in Islamic Political Philosophy course). I'd be grateful if you could post one about Ibn Khaldun 😇
Awesome to hear! We're incredibly glad you've found our content helpful. We will hopefully be releasing a video on Ibn Khaldun sometime in the future. We're doing our thinkers in chronological order so it'll still be sometime until we reach him. Stay tuned though because there's much more to come!
@@OasesOfWisdom it's great to hear that you're planning to make videos on many others! I'm hoping to be able to use all of them for my courses next year, then. fingers crossed 😊
We try to use the paintings that we feel best relate to the concept being discussed. They are not supposed to be accurate depictions of any historical events or people.
We will have a video in Ibn Rushd in the coming months. In the meantime please do not forget to share the channel around on all your socials. Much appreciated!
The word "Farab" is a Persian term for a locale that is irrigated by effluent springs or flows from a nearby river. The older Persian Parab or Faryab (also Paryab), is a common Persian toponym meaning "lands irrigated by diversion of river water". Farabi's parents were of Persian descent. His father "was an army captain of Persian extraction." A Persian origin. Farabi's works contain references and glosses in Persian, Sogdian. Sogdian has also been suggested as his native language and the language of the inhabitants of Farab which was an Iranian-speaking Central Asian origin. Farabi was a Persian Philosopher
"Persian" is a misused term thrown around loosely. There was nothing "Persian" about him expect his work, he was of Pashtun descent of the Ghilzai tribe who are the original people of the North before Mongol invasions happened.
He was not from khorasan. He lived in khorasan for some time but he was not Persian nor from Persia. It's determined with evidence he came from somewhere eastern-central asian countries. Some say Uzbekistan
People from Khorosan were historically Eastern Iranic speaking which was related to Persian but not Persian. Since he was born in Faryab, Afghanistan, he was likely a Pashtun.
The dilemma is Farabi’s virtuous cities do not exist in this world. They may exist in speech, but not in our world. There are however examples of virtuous individuals. They tend not to last long in this world though. And why is that?
Farab is otrar, sorry you're wrong when zoom in to Turkey when speaking about his father maybe a Turkish or Turkmen. The Turkish didn't migrated to anatolia yet 😅
Educate me moreeeee brother! Jus seen you from Tik tok and commented for the channel but found it in your bio . Love the content bro ! Subbed and always gon support education like this . Thanks man

@@DAKEN711 no bro don't get so uneducated. He is proved with evidence to be from central Asian Turk who also spoke persian. It's found in his remaining works
He was a central Asian Turk. It's proved. He knew how to speak Persian and grew up in Persian environment but he and his family were from central Asian Turks. It's been proved

would have liked some more about his beginnings though. is there anything known about his early journey in scholarship, before departing for Baghdad?

Civ 5 vibes
Ahahah . We’re massive fans of Civ too!
Al-Shahrazūrī who lived around 1288 and has written an early biography also states that Farabi hailed from a Persian family not Turkish
Your channel is very underrated. What a brilliant work you have!
His parents were ethnic Persian. Turkey ... didn't exist back then.

Why do you use paintings depicting westerners when you try to paint an imagine of Farabi or his surroundings in the video?
We try to use the paintings that we feel best relate to the concept being discussed. They are not supposed to be accurate depictions of any historical events or people.
Bro I can't wait 🤞
Top quality mate! Keep it up!
Please consider doing videos on ibn rushd as well as ibn zafar Al siqilli

Reminds me of the School of Life series. Great Job !
Farabulous Video! Compartmentalising cities based on faith and social aptitude is so interesting.
I have subscribed to your Chanel truth IHb Chanel post
Excellent videos 😊👍

Don't show non well covered women pictures that will be better for you in this life and the hereafter.
He was persian from khorasan khorasan people are persian spekers now and then
no he was a syrian arab.
persians claim everything in existence.
He was not from khorasan. He lived in khorasan for some time but he was not Persian nor from Persia. It's determined with evidence he came from somewhere eastern-central asian countries. Some say Uzbekistan

@@BarlasofIndushe was persian.
@@BarlasofIndusHe wasnt nor turkey nor turkish. So go back off.
He's Persian science
Yeah Al-Shahrazūrī who lived around 1288 and has written an early biography also states that Farabi hailed from a Persian family not Turkish
He studied some time in Persia but he's definitely not from Persia but from much north east
Exactly Tajik Persian👌
He spoke persian, but he was from nomadic Turkic tribe( current Uzbekistan)
he was sunni not shia
Amazing video!
so informative really enjoying your content

And why is that?
Mükemmel
Al Farabi is a super interesting philosopher
So true bestie. Al Farabi was an absolute legend
Farab is otrar, sorry you're wrong when zoom in to Turkey when speaking about his father maybe a Turkish or Turkmen. The Turkish didn't migrated to anatolia yet 😅

He was born in Faryab which is a province in Afghanistan and he was NOT Turkic. He was Afghan/Pashtun.
He was not of turkish heritage. Stop distorting history. He was a persian.
He was a central Asian Turk. It's proved. He knew how to speak Persian and grew up in Persian environment but he and his family were from central Asian Turks. It's been proved
