History of Islam in Africa with Mustafa Briggs

[@omardibba165]

I just came from his post taraweeh talk show 20 minutes ago and I still don’t have enough of his talks

[@mohamedsaho5881]

Wow I have learned so many things in this 2 hour discourse… I’m grateful …

[@f4lcrumsn158]

MashaAllah I didn’t know Cheikh Moustapha could actually speak wolof MashaAllah

[@SkeeloHendrix]

Masha’Allah My Brotha Is Full With Islamic Knowledge 🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@Chatelaine0]

@39:21 The Mosque in Massawa, Eritrea where the Sahaba first landed when they reached the shores of Abyssinia (Al-Habasha) is also with two Qiblahs - one facing Jerusalem, and one facing Makkah now. The Mimbar still faces Jerusalem to this day.

[@Ganodidit]

Ma Sha Allah! This was such a good watch. Kudos to the entire DD+ Team

[@thedailydoseplus]

Thank you my brother!

[@adizamohamed5033]

Masha Allah! I really really enjoyed this program!🎉❤❤❤

[@tymz8546]

Marsha’Allah.. we need more individuals like the Sheikh to step forward and take the lead in mastering the Islamic Sciences to educate and feed the Umah the right information and knowledge about our history and tradition on an intellectual level, for our history is very deep and intricate and requires learned people to be able to do the job well. We pay more attention to the STEM fields and encourage our brilliant minds to venture into these areas and neglect our Deen for the less competent ones to stray into.

[@RajihYounis]

Shekh Mustefa Masha Allah ! I love you for the sake of Allah and may Allah bless you and bless your knowledge and efforts to explore more about who we are ( African muslim) . Brother from Ethiopia

[@thedailydoseplus]

Thank you and Amin to the prayers.

[@abdullahrasheed1493]

As Salaam Alaikum! I’m reading a number of comments of those who seem surprised that Cheikh Mustafa speaks Wolof. He said that his family have been in The Gambia for seven generations and also in Senegal. In Both countries Wolof is one of the primary languages spoken there. I married a Gambian wife who is Wolof. I have been in and out of both countries for nearly 20 years. My present wife speaks to our baby boy in Wolof. And those who are in The Gambia also most likely speak Wolof, Mandinka, serer, Pular, jola and or a few other languages including some speak English. In Senegal they speak more French than English. I would have been more surprised if the Cheikh didn’t speak Wolof.

I'm so happy to see you brother Mustafa briggs. Masha Allah Allah's Plan is incredibly wonderful. Masha Allah Tabarakallah. May Allah increase you and bless you more. Thank you for sharing the knowledge ❤...I hope to meet you one day. Insha Allah. From Montreal but originally from Senegal.

[@abdullahrasheed1493]

Interestingly he is speaking on a subject that I have been using regularly for years doing our history based classes. Telling “OurStory”. Refuting the claims of “Some” not all Afrocentric personalities who try to make people of the African diaspora believe that Africans have no business in Islam. History shows us that there was no Islamic movement without the involvement of Africans from the very beginning. As Salaam Alaikum!! Thanks for sharing!

[@antoniuselva]

Very good interview interesting conversation one that was not mentioned is the influence and dominance of the catholic church in our lives growing up in the Caribbean everything around me was own by the catholic church

[@ultimatemediagambia]

[@linusokon284]

I've heard so much about you, brother Briggs but I never knew you're my brother from Mbiaya Urua, Akwa Ibom state. Mbiaya is 2km away my family.

[@ujimajame4601]

This is so informative! And he broke it down at 1:36:57 and made this discussion really relevant to modern times! In addition, it was good to see someone finally give women their proper respect for their role in the history and development of Islam.

[@thedailydoseplus]

Hello, this is much appreciated! You are very right, and we look forward to sharing for more informative episodes.

[@thedailydoseplus]

Walaikum Asalam dear, thank you so much for the information.

[@ednaclottey]

The story of Abraham and his two sons Ishmael and Isaac can be found in the Book of Genesis 21: 21.

[@thedailydoseplus]

Thank you for this information!

[@fatimaprosper3648]

I understand the part of the conversation about culture and family linage, and how important it all is. But you as an historian should understand when you are talking about black African people in the diaspora, our history and lack of culture and history, and we are still fighting to know were we came from and the pain of not knowing any truth about our history. So many of us just hold onto anything of Africa that we can just to feel and be part of something or somewhere. I for instance don’t even know the history of my father father, nor do I know the history of my mother father whom I loved dearly. No clue of were he came from. I’m sorry that you think that most of us don’t care, trust me many of us do care, we just don’t have a starting point. Maybe what you said, is soly about the Africans of the continent, but not the Africans of the Diaspora. We are still very very hurt about our lost history, and myself as a Muslim that’s and being An African woman is all I have, that makes me feel good about myself.

[@thedailydoseplus]

We will forward this to Mustafa. Stay tuned, through our platform we'll help inform on African history

[@jocelynburrell445]

The laws of the Quran carried out

[@jocelynburrell445]

Was the people of Dan from musa timeDark skin

[@jocelynburrell445]

Now how does it lookEuopean

[@Africatotheworld-w7x]

Ebrahim is from Canaan which is now called Ethiopia not Iraq if Ibrahim is not black African then Ismail should be mixed but he is not the entire biblical story take place in Africa no where else the mordan Day biblical locations are not biblical they are man made.

[@slowmotion3542]

No my dear you are so wrong... Prophet Ibrahim (pbuh) was from babylon you think that the whole world came out Ethiopia.. that's insane Almighty Sayes in the Quran that the previoust scriptures where changed, so I would say don't count on your Bible because it has no value at all.

[@Africatotheworld-w7x]

@@slowmotion3542 l must educate you because you have challenged me in the Qur'an is their Moses cross the Nile which is called yam in the Qur'an mean he did not go to phalastine he was going to his forefathers place Jakob whose name is Israel the grand son of Ebrahim the same place at the south.wen Arabs said is Iraq you never questioned it fix your mind you are being decisive by the Arabs

[@Africatotheworld-w7x]

In order to know where is Jerusalem of the bible you have to know the story of the exodus Moses did not go to phalastine where Moses went is the promise land which is est Africa south of Egypt book of numbers 13:17 king James version

[@handleisGG]

The white man wrote that book 😂

[@Africatotheworld-w7x]

Is in the Qur'an too is it the white man who wrote the Qur'an accept the truth or🤐

[@rashidagaye]

@@Africatotheworld-w7xonce you actually read the Quran, you will clearly see that it did not come from a man.. it totally has transformed my life in beautiful and powerful ways and I feel a deep connection to God through his powerful words in it..

[@Bizonine]

I appreciate the brother's extensive knowledge of history of the region and the role of Islam there. However, why does he think learning Arabic was useful to 'advancing' African people? Wouldn't this illicit the same inferiority complex he is referring to as he is keen to point out with the Western form of colonization. Maybe the road to Western colonization and all its demoralizing ills in West Africa was paved by Arab colonization as a precursor. It's all colonization!!

[@rubaasma8689]

Such a good point

[@thedailydoseplus]

You make a strong point. We will ask him on comment on this

[@hxyzazolchak]

Arabic and arabic script did not cause inferiority complex and, in fact, was used to promote the writing of west african languages and history. Western languages, on the other hand, are languages that are or were used to promote colonialism. The teachers discouraged the africans from learning their languages, which would cause them to also forget their history and identity. As a result, the person has more affinity to the colonizers since that's what they were educated in and also because they were only taught the history of the colonizer and not their own. If the only history you know is that of the colonizers and the great things their ancestors have done and you look to yourself and say 'well, my ancestors have done nothing', you will definitely have an inferiority complex to them.

[@Bizonine]

@@hxyzazolchak The question of writing in itself is purported to be the impetus for 'advancement' but what are we using to quantify or qualify Arabic writing as necessary for said 'advancement'? This in itself is a page out of the modernistic colonial mindset that posits that literary technology and its utilization were somehow beyond the reach of indigenous systems of knowledge transmission. And that its introduction and incorporation into widespread usage was a boon to the development of African society. But is that really the case? How much more African are these African societies because they adopted the Arabic script to supposedly preserve their history? How does one promote the writing of African history and language in another people's language? Not even the Arabs wrote their language far less their history in another people's language. They developed their own! It's the fact that we don't see the dissonance with suggesting such that points to this internalized inferiority complex and proves my point.

[@tam1641]

​@@hxyzazolchakso why are there words on Arabic that can be used only for black people ?

[@stevechukwuka635]

Nonsense

[@RobereyDavid]

He Don’t Nothing Mansa Muse From Ethiopia He Told Is from Mali Lying

[@bahmoustapha3791]

What are you trying to say?

[@muhammad5819]

One of the things that make “gamo” bid’ah is that it is taken as the celebration of the birthday of the prophet. That’s what makes it bid’ah Some call it mawlid. If anything do it on random day instead of on the birthday of the prophet. And if you truly wanna celebrate the birthday of the prophet fast Mondays But there’s a reason they do it on that specific day. What do the Christian do? No problem do it on the following day avoid that day of celebrating the birthday it is not sunnah. Apart from that good interview. Barakallahu feekum
