[@sigmagrindset7848]

@@riyadomran he wasn't a ose follower of the Prophet Muhammad(SAW) and basically abandoned his way of rule, unlike Abu Bakr before him who stayed or at least tried to maintain the style of governing, he also gave Muawiah ibn Abu Sufyan power by putting him as the governor of Damascus in Syria(his main job was literally trading alcohol, IN AN ISLAMIC CALIPHATE) which then would later allow Muawiah to appose the 4th Caliph Ali ibn Abi-Talib and force Ali's son Hassan ibn Ali who was also the first grandson of the Prophet Muhammad(SAW) to sign a peace treaty with him which Muawiah would then kill Hassan then put his son Yazid ibn Muawiah(easily one of the most hated people in Islam's history) to have the throne and not Hassan's successor and younger brother and also grandson of the Prophet(SAW) Hussein ibn Ali and we all know what happened after that and how it changed the course of Islam. You can't say Umar was responsible for destroying the Sassanids and pushing back the Byzantines and opening Iraq, Syria, Jordan, Palestine, and Lebanon and many more areas when he himself only gave the order, if it was up to Umar to lead the conquestd then the Muslims would have been pushed back to Medina and Mecca, he wasn't a skilled warrior or general and was never to rarely mentioned in the battles that took place during the time of the Prophet(SAW), the only huge mention was AFTER the battle of Tabuk after he and 11 "companions" were caught trying to assassinate the Prophet(SAW) by scaring his camel while it was on top of a rocky hill that would throw the Prophet Muhammad(SAW) off and tumbling down the painful rocky hill, killing him, and he EVEN failed at that. Plus his multiple accusations of disbelief and changing of the Sharia(Islamic jurisdiction which are placed in by God and only God can change them) such as removing the "Hayya Alla Khair Al-Ammal" "Come to (do) the good deeds" in the the Adhan and the changing of the praying style from hands down to crossing your hands during prayers, just like the pagans, and banning things like Muta/Temporary Marriage which was written in the Qur'an and in a Hadith of the Prophet Muhammad(SAW) that came from Fadhl ibn Al-Abbas and multiple other trustworthy accounts, and he would do these things publicly, he also brutally killed his fair share of "apostates" who weren't apostates but rebeled against his rule as they didn't believe he and Abu Bakr had the right to become Caliphs, also the killing of Sayyida Fatimah Al-Zahraa bint Muhammed(SAW) and the stealing of her inheritance and the miscarriage of her unborn child Muhsin and this is described in detail in both Sunni and Shi'a books and are trustworthy hadiths. Plus his last words were that of disbelievers according to the Qur'an as one of his last words were something along the lines of if he had all the gold in the world he would have given it away(to the needy) to save himself from hellfire(hmmm now why would he go to hell, only if he did something wrong and he knew about it) and this is the summary of the hadith written in Sahih Bukhari and in the Qur'an a verse says(in short not the actual verse or it's translation) that if a disbeliever would give away all of the gold of the earth he would never be able to flee hell. Not so good of a person now? If you still think he is that is your choice and I don't care tbh. May God bless you.

[@sigmagrindset7848]

@@monkey7558 ahhh yes the holy companions, they are sooooooo holy that you can't question some of their faiths according to actiond before Islam, it is quite illogical to think that everybody who ever saw the Prophet(SAW) or met him is now a believer, when there was an ENTIRE CHAPTER in the Qur'an talking about these people who were hypocrites, and I did not insult once. Don't get me wrong some sahabahs stayed on the right path and didn't go astray such as Ammar ibn Yasser(ra), he and his parents both accepted Islam while the Muslims were in Meccah, and his parents were the first martyrs for Islam because they were executed by Quraish, he would have a famous sahih Hadith directly from the Prophet(SAW) saying that he would be killed by a side inviting people to hell while he is on the side inviting them to heaven, now Ammar(ra) was martyred by Muawiah, a side according to the Messenger of God(SAW) is inviting people to hell and he was a Shi'a of Ali(Shi'a means partisan or follower of a certain person or group) at the time fighting for the 4th Caliph Ali ibn Abi-Talib(as) which according to the Prophet Muhammad(SAW) is a side inviting people to heaven, and Muawiah is said to be a companion what irony, the side inviting to hell is lead by a "companion", also lots of Sahabahs were killed by the first 3 Caliphs and lots of Sahabah joined Aisha in her conquest against Imam Ali(as) when he was Caliph which is according to both the Sunni school of thought and Shi'a school of thought a great sin and the side that a Muslim shouldn't have joined. How about you read history and see how the companions fought in between each other right after the Prophet(SAW) died then maybe not every sahabi was actually good and lots were hypocrites and enemies of Islam. There is a difference between cursing and exposing the lies of people who calimed to be good but in reality they were the complete opposite.

One of Prophet Muhammeds prophecies is these conquests you're watching, and a sign that he is indeed a true prophet to all mankind. - During the battle of the trench (627 ad), when muslims were in medina city and were surrounded by almost 10 thousand troops, the muslims were about 3 thousand and were digging huge trenches that cannot be crossed so they would survive, during the digging there was an unbreakable rock that couldn't be hit, so they called the prophet who was physically strong; when he struck the rock; it broke and then he said : “you're going to conquer syria, you're going to conquer persia and yemen”! (Saheeh Al Nasa'i) Prophet Muhammad didn't say you'll win against these 10 thousands, he said youre going to win against rome and persia (the greatest empires.) a time when the companions started doubting and fearing the defeat of all this. ~ after prophet Muhammad passed away they conquered all of these places he mentioned. - A historian named barnarby rogerson says: these two were superpowers; were the likes of russia and U.S, the equivalent of this victory today is seeing the eskimos rise up and conquer russia and the u.s; thats how significant the companions victory over these superpowers were. So all praise be to Allah the one who said "He is the One Who has sent His Messenger with ˹true˺ guidance and the religion of truth, making it prevail over all others, even to the dismay of the polytheists." 9:33 Note: The quote i mentioned of prophet Muhammad is authentically narrated by Al Nasa'i with a chain of narration going back to prophet Muhammed) (science of hadith, the well known islamic science for falsifying historical accounts or declaring them as authentic) (which only exists in islam!)

Ma sha Allah. For those who know Arabic language, Umar's words at 22:30 are so powerful in their original language. Also, the strength of the Arabic displayed on screen serves as proof for me that these were his actual words. Few modern Arabic speakers have the ability to speak like that.

Fun fact: Upon Umar's arrival in Jerusalem, a pact known as the Umariyya Covenant was composed. It surrendered the city and gave guarantees of civil and religious liberty to Christians in exchange for jizya. It was signed by caliph Umar on behalf of the Muslims, and witnessed by Khalid, Amr, 'Abd al-Rahman ibn 'Awf, and Muawiya. Depending on the sources, in either 637 or in 638, Jerusalem was officially surrendered to the caliph. For the first time, after almost 500 years of oppressive Roman rule, Jews were once again allowed to live inside Jerusalem. (taken from Wiki) Dear K&G, you could at least mention that Jews were let to come back to Jerusalem, even though the Byzantines kicked them out of the Holy City. Also, how can you call the "Covenant of Umar" apocryphal? There were reliable Muslim leaders who were witnesses, and the treaty was determined in front of them. So how are you calling it apocryphal? Our beloved Caliph Umar (R) allowed Jews to come into Jerusalem, what makes you think that Christians were not given the same right? There is a limit to how spiteful you people can be.

That their churches are neither inhabited nor demolished, nor diminished from their space, nor from their cross or anything from their money, nor is they coerced into their religion, and none of them will be harmed, and none of the Jews will live with them. And the people of Iliya should give al-jizya as the people of al-Madaen give. And they have to get the Romans and thieves out of it. Whoever goes out of them is safe for himself and his money until they reach their security. And whoever stays among them is safe, and he owes similar tribute to the people of Iliya. Whoever loved the people of Iliya to walk with himself and his money with the Romans and clear their sale and crucifixion, for they are safe for themselves and for their sale and crucifixion until they reach their security. Whoever wants them, sits and owes him like the tribute that the people of Iliya (Jerusalem) owe It is willing, he walked with rum. And whoever wants to return to his family, nothing is taken from them until he reaps their harvest. And according to what is in this book, the covenant of God, the edict of His Messenger, the edema of the caliphs, the edema of the believers, if they give what they owe from the tribute. Books and attended by fifteen years Hijra. Khalid bin Al-Walid, Abdul Rahman bin Auf, Amr bin Al-Aas, and Muawiyah bin Abi Sufyan witnessed this. While Umar, may God be pleased with him, dictated this covenant, I attended prayer, so Patriarch Sophronius called Omar to pray where he was in the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, but Umar refused and said to him: I am afraid that if I prayed in it, the Muslims will overcome you and say here the Commander of the Faithful will pray.

utara yang tidak tergugat. 10:31 Setelah membelah Kerajaan Rom Timur menjadi dua kepingan yang terputus, Abu Ubaidah menghantar 10:36 Khalid melakukan serangan berkuda yang berani melintasi Pergunungan Taurus dan ke wilayah Tarsus, 10:43 sementara panglima tertinggi itu sendiri menghala ke selatan pantai Mediterania, menangkap 10:48 pelabuhan laut seperti Laodicea, Gibala, Antarados dan Tripoli menjadikannya mustahil bagi maharaja 10:54 Heraclius menggunakan tentera laut Rom yang unggul untuk membawa tentera ke Levant. 11:00 Walaupun pertempuran di kawasan itu masih belum selesai, pada akhir 637 kebanyakan jeneral Syria 11:06 kempen diselesaikan untuk memerintah wilayah masing-masing sebagai gabenor1. 11:13 Di Hulwan, Yazdegerd III masih bersemangat menyelamatkan kerajaannya yang runtuh setelah kehilangannya 11:19 dari Ctesiphon. 11:21 Untuk melakukan ini, dia memerintahkan tentera utama Parsi di bawah Mihran dan Khurrazad untuk menghentikan pengunduran mereka 11:27 dan berpusing menghadap penjajah berhampiran Jalula. 11:33 Tentera yang berusaha mendorong utara melintasi kota tepi sungai terpaksa berjalan melalui jalan yang sempit 11:38 jurang antara anak sungai Tigris 'Diyala ke sebelah barat dan kawasan yang hampir tidak dapat dilalui 11:44 tanah pecah di sebelah timur. 11:46 Sekiranya 20-30,000 Mihran dapat memegang jawatan ini, selebihnya Suwad utara dan Sassanid 11:53 wilayah di sebelah timur Pegunungan Zagros tidak akan tersedia. 11:57 Dengan tujuan untuk mengubah Jalula menjadi benteng yang tidak dapat ditembusi mampu melawan musuh mana pun 12:03 dorongan, Mihran segera mula menggali masuk. 12:06 Sebuah parit digali tiga batu ke selatan yang menghubungkan tanah pecah dengan sungai, 12:12 menyekat jurang. 12:14 Di sebalik parit ini terdapat sejumlah kubu lain, artileri dan ribuan 12:18 Para pemanah Parsi, sementara di depan diletakkan sebaris kayu pelopor anti-berkuda. 12:25 Rekrut dikumpulkan, dipersenjatai dan dilatih dari daerah setempat, dan peruntukan dikumpulkan 12:30 dari sekitar kawasan luar bandar yang berdekatan. 12:32 Jalula menjadi pertempuran penting. 12:37 Pada saat karya pertahanan Sassanid bermula di sekitar Jalula, kata itu sampai ke Sa'd di Ctesiphon 12:43 bahawa ini berlaku. 12:45 Sebagai jeneral Muslim sama berminat untuk merebut Suwad utara yang subur seperti Parsi-nya 12:50 musuh harus terus mengatasinya, dan ingin mendorong perbatasan pertahanan ke arah timur, 12:55 Sa'd menghantar keponakannya Hashim bin Utba dengan 12,000 tentera untuk mengurangkan kedudukan Parsi. 13:02 Untuk mengelakkan penguatan atau mundur, Sa juga menghantar 5.000 orang untuk berurusan 13:08 Pengawal Gabenor Parsi Intaq di Mosul. 13:12 Setelah beberapa kali berusaha merebut kota itu, mata-mata Muslim berjaya mengamankan kota itu 13:17 pembelotan kontinjen Arab Kristian dalam pengkhianatan yang menyebabkan kejatuhan Mosul. 13:26 Dalam pasukan utama menuju Jalula pada bulan Mac 637, Hashim membawa banyak sahabat 13:32 Muhammed, dan juga Qaqa ibn Amr yang selalu ganas. 13:36 Juga dalam barisan Muslim terdapat beberapa ribu pasukan Parsi bersama dengan perwira Sassanid 13:41 yang telah bergabung dengan mereka selepas Ctesiphon. 13:44 Ketika orang-orang Arab dan unit Parsi mereka menghampiri jurang Jalula setelah seharian berjalan dari 13:49 bekas ibu kota Sassanid, Hashim membina kemnya dan dikerahkan di sepanjang arka selatan 13:55 dari parit pelindung Mihran, tidak mahu melancarkan serangan langsung terhadapnya. 14:00 Jadi, keadaan tetap seperti ini selama berbulan-bulan, di mana bala bantuan, 14:05 peruntukan dan wang disalurkan ke kota kubu dari Hulwan, tempat Maharaja 14:10 Yazdegerd terus mengumpulkan kekuatan tambahan. 14:16 Menyedari bahawa keadaannya hanya akan bertambah buruk seiring berjalannya waktu, Hashim mengarahkan beberapa percubaan 14:21 semasa menyerbu parit kubu. 14:25 Walaupun kegagalan kayu Mihran yang tidak memuaskan untuk menghentikan pasukan berkuda Arab, Parsi 14:30 pasukan peluru berpandu berjaya mengatasi dan menangkis serangan ini. 14:34 Setelah itu, Sassanids menggantikan rintangan kayu dengan besi yang lebih berkesan. 14:41 Tidak bersemangat kerana tidak berjaya memecahkan garis Parsi, umat Islam berhenti 14:45 tindakan menyinggung untuk sementara waktu, dan itu memberi peluang kepada Mihran sendiri. 14:51 Dengan menggunakan aliran penguat yang terus menerus datang, jeneral Parsi bermula 14:57 melancarkan serangan terhadap kedudukan Hashim, menimbulkan kerugian dan mendapat keyakinan sebagai 15:01 dia yang buat. 15:03 Walaupun tentera Islam dengan mudah dapat melawan sehingga 80 serangan ini berjaya dilakukan ketika mereka 15:08 tiba dan mendorong Mihran kembali ke kubu-kubunya berulang kali, masih belum ada jalan untuk pecah 15:14 kebuntuan. 15:16 Dengan sedikit pilihan lain, Hashim menghantar kembali kiriman kepada Ctesiphon bahawa dia memerlukan bantuan. 15:22 Sa pada awalnya mengirim 600 infanteri dan 400 pasukan berkuda untuk meningkatkan pasukan di Jalula, tetapi 15:30 jumlah ini hampir tidak dapat menggantikan kerugian yang dialami selama lapan bulan pertempuran

And wrote an extended version of covenant which he quoted from Al-Tabari (died 310 Hijri) ((ِAl-Tabari wrote a disclaimer in his introduction of his famous book (Tarikh Al-Tabari) or the (History of Al-Tabari) that he gathered everything he has regardless of it's level of authenticity or what is called Hadith sciences as (Sanad). He simply quoted from those who who he took the words from and left the reader-who should be a scholar- to differentiate what has strong Sanad, what has good Sanad and what has weak Sanad)). Notice: Sanad or level of authenticity depends greatly on a chain of narrators meaning: 1-Someone should say something and another would hear it directly or indirectly (((should specify how you've heard it))) some would memorize the words and some would write them and these people would convey the words to others and the process repeats until you have a network or a chain of people who recorded what was said by the first one. 2- Not anyone is trusted to take from. People who have lack of memory or a history of adding words by mistake or by lying are excluded immediately and reported on in books of (Trajim). Biographies are the closest thing to it. It is identified as the study of people it's like an identification and review of people and weather they can be trusted or not good or bad. And there are many methods by Muslim scholars to determine that. 3- This is strictly applied to Hadith (Sayings of the Prophet Muhammad). It's also strict in history books but not like Hadith. (((((((OFCOURSE IT'S MORE COMPLEX THAN THAT BUT I'M TRYING TO EXPLAIN IT IN A NUTSHELL))))))) 6- The Orthodox Church of Jerusalem version, which was published by the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate in 1953 AD which is the most extended version of covenant yet. Remember: By saying the "Covenant" I mean the letters written not the event. The event surely happened and there is no logical reason to deny it considering all the given sources. When you read all the works of the previously mentioned scholars you will notice that the first three (Al-Yaaqoobi, Eutychius, Ibn Al-Jawzi) quoted short, direct, and simple letters. Which was the way letters were written in the first generation in Islam by Prophet Muhammad to rulers of the world at the time. He wouldn't add any introductions except for example:In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful, From Muhammad the Messenger of God to the king of the romans or the king of the persians...etc and goes straight to the point. Knowing that, the covenant letters written by these three scholars are the closest to be coming from a man of the first generation like Umar. The messages barely take three lines. For example Al-Yaaqoobi quoted: "In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful, this is what Umar bin Al-Khattab wrote to the people of Jerusalem: You are safe in your blood, money, and churches. They are not inhabited [by us] or destroyed [by us], unless you bring up a public event [couldn't understand the full meaning of "public event" it could mean several things in the Arabic tongue but it could include treason and breaking the terms]. (Al-Yaqoubi: Tareekh Al-Yaqoubi: Part 2, p. 46) Eutychius of Alexandria wrote: In the name of God, from Omar bin Al-Khattab to the people of the city of Iliya [Jerusalem], they are safe for their blood, children, money, and churches, they [churches] are not destroyed [by us] or inhabited [by us]. (Ibn Al-Batriq [Arabic name for Eutychius] : The Collected History of Investigation and Ratification, Part 2, p .: [147]). Notice the similarity between the two letters coming from Umar's side unlike the extended letter written to him by the christians of Jerusalem as recorded by ibn Asaker. Also, notice the difference between the first two and someone like Mujeeruddin and Al-Tabari they wrote an extended version of the the letter and added several terms that aren't supported by other narrations so they are not taken to be true using Sanad as they are considered weak narrations. Remember: Mujeeruddin quoted from Al-Tabari and Al-Tabari gathered in his book both weak and strong narrations and the extended letter is considered weak on it own in the terms of Sanad and the lack of other supporting narrations. The new Orthodox Church of Jerusalem version is out of the picture no doubt about that. It's so extended and the language used doesn't have that eloquent language the early Muslims had in their daily interactions and messages. It doesn't fit add to that the weak Sanad and no supporting narrations. Orientalist opinions can be thrown in the garbage to be honest they don't even try to resolve historical issues they only make more. Could be because of a colonial agenda. I don't know, but what I'm sure about is that they are the last ones to take an opinion from when it comes to the Middle east and Islamic studies and history in general. I lost trust in europeans even in their writings on Asian or American history. These are simply stuff they cannot understand with their methodology if they which I believe is weak and full of theories more than facts. We are lucky that Islamic scholarship implemented a powerful database and system that proves-weather you agree with them or not-they are the best in terms of survival weather it is a strong narration or a weak narration all is preserved. And considering the catastrophes the Muslim world faced like the occupation of european imperial forces and massacre of many scholars like the french "massacre des coupes-coupes" in 1917 this shows how uncivilized and animal-like europeans can be when they have an agenda as they killed (((7million))) Algerians since the beginning of it's occupation of Algeria and they also killed 400 harmless Islamic scholars in Chad not mentioning the reconquista which kind of was the same thing, the mongol invasion, and the suppression of the soviet union. All these catastrophes and yet nothing happened or changed in the Islamic studies because Muslims already established all the religious sciences with all it's fields and spread it in vast areas of land where now it's impossible to stop it or lose it especially with the internet and technology. And this is something that deserves respect.

F. Tucker and Ella Landau-Tasseron note that although Sayf may have been an unscrupulous hadith collector, this should not detract from his general reliability as a transmitter of historical information (akhbārī).[4] Tucker adds that accusations of bias could equally be leveled at other akhbārīs contemporary to Sayf, including the Shi'a historian Abu Mikhnaf.[4] Fuat Sezgin, Albrecht Noth, and Martin Hinds have also challenged Wellhausen's views and placed Sayf on an equal footing with other traditionalists........

The video was terrific but you disappointed regarding the conquest of Eliya. It was not that the Umar (Allah be pleased with him), was called in person by sophronius rather the city was had become self sufficient as they were preparing for siege since long time and Muslims were not very experienced in sieges. So what happened is very interesting. The Muslims were just sitting outside confused as to how to put the city into submission and one day when the priests of the city were splashing their holy water on the walls of city, they come to the top and shouted to Muslims that they could never conquered the city because the prophecy says that it can only be taken by a humble king and they couldn't see that person among Muslims, when Abu Ubaida heard this, he immediately realised that the 'poor king' is in Madina so he sent for him. The journey... The Caliph Umar, a staunch opponent to luxury only took one camel and one slave with him. The camel was also loaded with supplies so it was not possible for two people to ride together so at one destination the Caliph was mounted and slave was walking and the other destination, the slave was mounted and Caliph os Islam was walking while holding the bridle. And when they reached the city gates, it was the turn for slave to be mounted, the slave insisted that he gets down and the Caliph would mount but Caliph Umar, a strict believer in justice, didn't let the slave to come down. When the Muslim commanders arrived to recieve Caliph, they were very confused and disappointed to see the Caliph of Islam in dirty clothes and holding his footwear in one hand and bridle on the other and keeping his slave mounted while himself coming on foot. Abu Ubaida requested the Caliph to get fresh and dressed as the city was a very holy site to which Umar became angry and said "that we haven't recieved respect and honour through clothes and gold or style, we have been honoured by the the wealth of Islam". With that, he straight went in front of the city. When the priests saw Caliph Umar, they immediately surrendered the city as he fulfilled the prophecies. Inside the city.... When the Caliph Umar entered the city, the priests welcomed him and asked him to pray in the church of holy sepulchre but wise Umar refused, he said,"if I pray at this site then the upcoming generations of Muslims would claim the church for Islam and I don't want this". And then he prayed outside the church where now a mosque stands by the name Umar mosque. Then the treaty was signed in which the Christians acknowledged the city of Al Quds under Shari'a law but on the condition that Jews would not be allowed to settle in the city. Before this treaty, Jews were not even allowed to visit the city. This covenant was then kept by Muslims throughout the ages since Caliph to Umayyad to Abbasid and to Ottoman caliphate until it was deposed. I don't know how could you say that covenant is just apocryphal. The covenant between the Caliph Umar and the Christians of Eliya could be one of the most authentic fact from that era that covenant still hangs outside the Umar mosque in Eliya.
