The researcher overlooked an important fact: the faith that Mohammed brought did not merely lead to the rise of a new kingdom but to the rebirth of a nation. This was a nation that previously had no deep roots or established identity. The land was home to people living a Bedouin lifestyle with a spoken language that lacked a well-developed written system. They had no institutions to facilitate communication and recorded little of their lives except through poetic expressions. When Islam emerged, it brought fundamental changes. For nearly 100 years following the beginning of Mohammed's prophecy, the focus and priority of the early Muslim community were on nation-building and spreading the message of Islam. During this period, the rulers of Islam did not prioritize documenting history, as oral narration was deemed sufficient for preserving and passing down knowledge to future generations. Administrative affairs and governance were still conducted in Persian and Roman languages, which were more widely established at the time. However, after 150 years, Muslim rulers recognized the vast expansion of their kingdom and the fact that it was now predominantly populated by non-Arabs rather than Arabs. At this point, they decided to systematically document and record their history and culture. This decision served two main purposes: first, to preserve their history, faith, and culture; and second, to establish a unified identity for the growing and diverse nation.

A good start to a search ... a quest to the truth... being a Muslim/ Arab myself... i have the edge of speaking and understanding Arabic the language of the Quran. I am too on the same quest. ❤❤ The uncertainty and the embeguity is a room for research. At the end of the day, Islam is a "belief"

Cette religion est d'une absurdité hors-norme

“If you do not aid the Prophet - Allah has already aided him when those who disbelieved had driven him out [of Makkah] as one of two, when they were in the cave and he said to his companion, "Do not grieve; indeed Allah is with us".” Quran 9:40. Dude just lied to 3.9M viewers who watched the video by mentioning that there is no place in Quran where it mentions the exile of the prophet (pbuh) from Mekkah to Madina.

Your next investigation should be about China. Does it exist? 😮 Do Chinese understand their constitution!!! - Big questions! May Allah open your heart to accept Islam.

Storytelling is a special way of Islamic identification. It is more important that it sounds well than that it sounds like the truth or reality. That's why the Muslim world stands like it is and the Western world like it is. Reason is the difference.

Religion exists because people fear the unknown, and it was an easy solution to create religion to explain the unknown. Then others exploited religion to control others and weaponize it.

Christopher Hitchens has the perfect understanding of this cult

There is literally hair of profet Muhammad preserved in Istanbul

jebel musa in north western saudi arabia is the real Mt sinai-Jebel al-Lawz in Saudi Arabia

What an ignorant ! You should read Ibn Khaldoun before doing your documentary to understand how Nomad tribes can build a big civilisation !

Monsieur Lafontaine, tout d'abord, je vous salue et je vous annonce comme promis la bonne nouvelle, Soudani Almina vient de publier (sous un autre nom) son étude sur l'authenticité du Noble Coran. Vous aviez critiqué ses vidéos à l'époque. Il vient de révéler la clé de l'authenticité du Noble Coran. Le lien pour voir son étude est ci-dessous. Je dirai aussi quelques mots sur votre vidéo. Monsieur Odon, vous et tous les penseurs occidentaux de l'Islam, lorsque vous l'étudiez et en particulier le Noble Coran, vous tombez toujours dans les mêmes erreurs, vous considérez dans vos hypothèses que le Coran est une œuvre humaine. En procédant de cette façon, vous vous égarez.

It seems that the Ummayads wanted to make YHWE into Allah. Jesus is the son of YHWE (Jehowa). In principle, the Ummayads were not authorized to hold the office of khalifah. Let us not forget that they were the enemies of the Prophet Muhammad and they killed Imam Hussain! YHWH is only a sub-god, but not the Almighty God (Allah/Elyon Elohim)! This story is about the real Jesus who is ISA (Essah) and Prophet Muhammad who did not live in Saudi Arabia. The real Prophet Muhammad and Ali were originally from Turkistan/Kashmir and their Almighty God is and true Tengri/Allah. Don't forget that the family of Muhammed and Ali (Ahly-Baiyts) are pretty much all of Turkish descent and were originally from the Transoxania and later Persia/Iran region ;)

bonjour monsieur,merci pour votre travail 1)avons-nous des preuves que la tribu de mahomet(ou bien des arabes judeochretiens) faisait le pelerinage a Jerusalem chaque annee avant sa prise en 639? 2)existe t-il a 40 km au nord de Damas la vallee des quraishs(ca je sais que oui),ainsi que la montagne des quraishs et la riviere des quraishs?

In 2025, much more evidence is being unveiled that Mohammed NEVER existed.

Analyzed within a western secular framework, you guys suffer from a god complex, always thinking your model is better

Search for u're evidence in vatican The key of all the keys

Avez vous confronté vos recherches, vos soit disantes preuves de mon c.l, avec de vrais historiens et chercheurs ? Vous croyez qu'un dieu, à du descendre sur terre, préché et se faire crucifié, tout ca pour expié les fautes de sa propre création ?

Impossible d'écouter jusqu'au bout à cause de cet insupportable homme qui, en voulant étaler ses connaissances, empêche l'auteur de développer et d'aller jusqu'au bout de ses arguments et idees.. Insupportable 😢

"C'est une thèse et c'est une foutaise" belle conclusion lol

De grandes lacunes entâchent votre analyse ou plutôt reconstruction de l'histoire: Les omeyyades auraient établit un nouvel État au moyen orient en annexant des territoires abondonnés par les deux grandes puissances de l'époque! Ensuite les abbassides leurs ennemis jurés les ont chassé du pouvoir, et entamé une grande imposture afin de légétimer leur accès au pouvoir ! Les abbassides ont inventé l'Islam et toute son histoire très très riche et ont fait une mise-à-jour des têtes de leurs populations avec la nouvelle version de l'Histoire! Les réscapés des omeyyades ont créé leur nouvel État en Andalousie, ils ont gardé la même histoire et la même religion inventées par leurs ennemis les abbassides! Qui prendrait ces récits pleins d'inconsistances au sérieux?

Religion is for people with zero inner strength

The search for origin is useless. We struggle with our mortality and invent a story we are ready to kill for.

The Islamic evidence is abundant. This documentary is a funny deception to raise doubts for the purpose of founding fake foundations for the Zionists to steal the land and kill its people. Rest assured, Islam is from God and it will stay

One of the tools which Tom could have used in his quest is the Arabic language itself.

I'll never understand how and why people buy into religion.

Mohammad is not a prophet! No angel visited him for 23 years that's how long it took to produce the Koran

The fans of Muhammed and Jesus are attacking each other while they were both Arabs and these fans never bother themselves to ask why god has always chosen his profits among Arabs? There weren't any other people on the earth? Why god's language is Arabic...

Alors monsieur le chercheur dans la « vraie science », pourquoi votre « science » s’est tue face aux arguments basés sur les données scientifiques? Et pas sur de simples interrogations naïves? Ne voyez-vous pas que la Science est plutôt du coté de la narrative des savants du hadith et non du côté de la pseudo-science de Patricia Crone? Le Coran n’a-t-il pas si bien décrit votre prétendue science comme (un mirage que l’assoiffé prend pour de l’eau, mais une fois rendu là il ne trouve rien?) Pourquoi votre « science » ne vous est d’aucun secours face au manuscrit de Birmingham?

and in iran we had prophet and civilazation for thousand of years

Ce livre est un ramassis de sottises comme tout les livres religieux

Unfortunately they have not engaged with the right scholar(s) on this subject . Dramatized and repetitive . No substance documentary. Very weak

It is so funny that you want to know how Ismail started and you went to normal people who haven’t studied or researched anything about Islam, if I want to know how Christianity started I won’t go to a Christian man who lives a normal life goes to church or a pastor who was taught what to teach I would go to bishops perhaps pops to understand the roots from well educated people in the religion or go to a researcher in history or religion this whole documentary makes no sense.

Their only concern is muslims conquer Cristian lands

Bonjour, Merci pour cette longue vidéo de vulgarisation historique. Cependant j'aimerais comprendre aussi le développement ou la création du mythe biblique afin de comprendre toute la temporalité du mythe monothéiste et son origine. Pourriez vous m'éclairer sur ce sujet ?

Bashar ibn Maran's praying caliph coin causes a lot of issues as it proves the religion was there from before already, more so ever , the letters of abdul malik to urwa ibn zubair asking about the search of the prophet which is now accepted by even revisi9onits that it is 100% authentic , this destroys your whole claim

True Islam has been swept away by the deserts . Most have never read their book

Un autre argument dévastateur pour la thèse de Patricia Crone! Le manuscrit de Birmingham! Le connaissez-vous? Malheureusement pour vous, ces deux feuillets du Coran ont été daté en 2015 par le carbone 14 entre 568 et 645, ce qui veut dire qu'il a été écrit du vivant du prophète ou au plus tard une douzaine d'années après sa mort! Le plus beau dans ce manuscrit est qu'il est identique au Coran actuel lettre pas lettre, point par point! Qu'aurait pensé Patricia Crone si elle avait vu ce manuscrit?

J’ai décidé finalement d’en finir définitivement avec le pseudo-argument du manque d’eau à la Mecque, non pas que je le prends au sérieux, mais parce que les adeptes de la thèse de Patricia Crone le prennent trop au sérieux! Deux arguments suffisent à le détruire complètement.

These so called historians tried so hard to look for the truth while holding the Holy Quran and yet, not been able to see the truth. He should not worry the history but on judgement day, when he finally find out that what he was denying was the truth but it was too late to believe

Evil sect

Qu'est-ce que le Coran ? Un catalogue de bonne conduite, un truc de boutiquier, d'hygièniste, ramenant l'homme à la case départ, à la peur; le livre de chevet idéal du parfait petit bgeois en ses tenues du temps de Dagobert !! L'islam est une aberration anthropologique comique, quoi !...

God of house best build Adam time

Christian Teaching Love Hope and Faith. Islam Teaching Submit or be killed, Lust and greed not even their paradise is exempted from sins where if you die as Martyr you extended your lust in heaven by having 72 vrigns with big t*ts. wth wit ths religion. Only Satan will have this kind of paradise.... Full of earthly lust

Comment peut-on faire autant de recherches et rester chrétien ? Il y a tant de preuves sur les erreurs dans la Bible et repercutés sur le Coran (Moise, Noé, les ressurections des divinités, etc..)

Odon Lafontaine...you gave your eye for wisdom and knowledge?

All lies on the truth. All eyes on me. 2Pac Crete has famous oliv trees. The minoans had also the bull worship like in the nedved desert... Somehow all this reminds me of that old man in the desert and his assasins.

Absolutely BS ! No facts ! Disinformation and so on

beautiful... absolutely beautiful. thank you... most absolutely
