Islam has significantly shaped human civilization, knowledge, ethics, and art. The Renaissance of knowledge and faith,!! in non-Muslim countries today, where we observe how Islam has contributed to architecture, intellectual advancements, and knowledge-such as in Andalusia, Spain, and the magnificent Muslim art in India,among others in Muslim countries. So This stands in stark contrast to European imperialist colonization, which involved ethnic cleansing and the plundering of nations' wealth. Acknowledging the truth is a sign of being civilized, rather than mourning in the comment section, my friends!

[@belen3732]

I don't think it was it Islam that shaped human civilization but the peoples that lived in the eastern part of the world. They just happened to be Muslim. Just like the west now dominates in knowledge, ethics, technology, arts and happen to be mostly Christian or non religious at all. It's not because they are Christian. It's because of countries they live in. I do agree nations where Islam was dominant started the Renaissance.

14:13 I disgaree. There was a huge famine in egypt during his rule which led to thousands of deaths. Also, he didnt just massacre the mamluks. He also executed anyone who opposed him. For example, he executed the son of Abdul Rahman Al Jabarti after al Jabarti refused to write a book praising him. He also executed hundreds in Syria, Palestine and Sudan. 15:38 not really an independent economy because he took expensive loans from the french and british which his sons were not able to pay back, resulting in the british occupation of egypt 40:44 yes, and the Ottomans did not help change their negative image with the Arabs when Muhammad Ali Pasha invaded Najd and masscared hundreds of people. He also looted thousands of Arabian horses and took them to Egypt. He stole many horses taht his grandson Abbas helmy I later wrote an enclyopedia on arabian horse breeds. In addition to this, Muhammad Ali Pasha also removed the popular ottoman governor of Hejaz known as Ghalib ibn Musa'id and replaced him with a puppet. 52:52 Sayyed Ahmad Khan represented only 1 school of thought during this period. The other reaction to the 1857 revolt was from the Deobandis, who established the Darul uloom deoband in 1858. They called on indian muslims to continue their fight against the british both intellectually and through arms. The deobandis even led a guerilla war against the british raj, led by shaykh Mahmud Hasan Deobandi, who was eventually captured and exiled by the british.

[@HikmaHistory]

Very interesting video, didn't even realize it was an hour long 😂 However, I would like to mention an inaccuracy - Sultan abdul-Hamid did not increase the Ottoman debt at all, in fact, his founding of the Ottoman Public Debt Administration was very successful and relived the Ottoman Empire of nearly 90% of its debt. This is well documented in Ottoman history. But besides that, very underrated video, great quality information, presentation, and flow!

[@Beyonder1987]

The problem was Muslim empires were never united in Islam since the first Caliphate. Christians were more united. The most powerful Christian states got together to form the Crusaders and invaded Muslim world. If all the Muslim empires united and formed there own Crusade equivalent into Europe, it would be crushing. Muslims had biggest armies and bigger populations at the time. Reality was that muslims were not united. The muslims were first to use guns powder, hence Muslim empires were known as Gunpowder empires but they were too busy fighting amongst themselves. Europeans took advantage of this and the discovery of new lands made them rich, which in turn allowed to invest in scientific and technological advancements which then gave them an edge to once superior Dar al-Islam

[@54032Zepol]

You do know the crusades where a defensive wars waged to combat the Arab invaders and Turkish incursions that where taking up all the Christian lands, which why in Spain there's an event called the reconquista, where the Christians had to retake the lands that where being colonized by Arabs.

[@FiveLiver]

Christians were united? When Vienna was besieged in 1683, France was the most powerful nation in Europe and couldn't care less. Divided kingdoms allowed the Ottomans to encroach into Europe into the first place. A unified Christendom would never have allowed the fall of Constantinople and it was largely alone against the Muslims. When Napoleon defeated the Mamluks in Egypt, who helped kick them out? Britain.

[@bernardkealey6449]

“Christian” Europe had been beating the snot out of each other for centuries and each time each side reacted to and refined their tactics. There had been artillery and naval arms-races between all sides for generations. Different modes of recruitment and training were explored, and military doctrine was only ever as good as the last battle. The goals were also driven by Nationalism and mercantile expansion and conquest which was kinda different too, and it was becoming far more common for wars to be funded by longer term interest bearing loans rather than directly by taxes which massively impacted how well the forces could be outfitted.

I don't think you can take Christian ways of governing and apply them to Islamic society and assume they will work the same. Different peoples have different ways of doing things. Democracy is not compatible with Islam. Muslims don't like partisanship and are not in need of political parties because we share one religion that unifies everyone. A much better form of government for Muslims is an absolute monarchy guided by the Ulama similar how Saudi Arabia is ran today. The best and most ideal would be an imamate similar to how the caliphate was ran with the most knowledgeable Islamic scholar elected by the ulama to be the head of state just like Abu Bakr and Umar were elected. Also instead of using the term "secular sciences" why not use a term like the study of Allah's creation. Language matters don't let them own science as if it were their exclusive domain.

Personally I think the reason why Muslim societies are "worst" than Western societies is that their land sucks. A successful society needs a stable source of water and food and the geography of the Muslim countries makes this very difficult. The hot, dry land combined with many deserts condemns to water scarcity which also exacerbates their food production when combined with their lack of arable land. A stable food supply and water supply is literally the most basic requirements of a successful and stable society and their geography prevents them from having this.

I can understand where you're coming from and to be honest, I think I was LITTLE too harsh on him in this video. In my defence, the focus of this video was much more on intellectual rather than political developments - so even me covering him in this video had to be done from the perspective of his relationship with intellectuals such as the Young Ottomans. Next year, I intend on making a video on Abdulhamid where I will go into a lot more depth about his reign.

[@noorsaadeh]

​@@HikmaHistoryI really appreciate your response! I've been studying Sultan A dulnamod particularly under Ottoman historian Dr Yakoob Ahmed. His speciality. The last triue Sultan was much maligned by the Atattirk regime. He reduced the debt considerably and improved much within the Empire and many of his far sighted projects were brought into being by Erdoğan. So trying to do my small part to open eyes to his incredible 30 yr reign and horrible treatment of the Sultan and family during exile. There are evidences that in contrast to his western and turkish opponents, only 2 were executed under his watch. He preferred to exile traitors and criminals. His mercy was his end as those he sent to study in Europe to improve education and to save life, conspired to bring him down. Your brief summary was very Western. The series Abdülhamid Payithat served to correct those misrepresentations. He became a hero for many of us as last true Caliph and Sultan who sought to save the empire and Ummah from disintegration. Highly recommend Dr Yakoob's lectures available on KZbin.

[@djallalnamri1]

European imperialism did not start as European but as Catholic Christian in the 15th century based on the Doctrine of Discovery of the Spanish Catholic Church which states that "no non-Christian has the right to property unless he converts to Christianity". so the colonial armies (in Portuguese, Christopher COLUMBUS is pronounced Cristobal COLON or COLONNE hence "colonialism") were accompanied by missionaries in case the indigenous populations agreed to convert to Christianity to keep their properties. you understand why there are more Christians in the World than other faiths: it was not the work of Christians from the Middle East, from the first churches. it was colonization, dispossession, hoarding, theft and things of that kind. it was something other than imperialism and it was fundamentally material. Spain paved the way for other European powers who mastered the art of maritime navigation - they were called Thalassocracies -: Portugal, France, England, Holland and this is how churches appeared all over the world.

Innovation in Islam is literally considered haram … so that same attitude prevails in all other things

[@yellowSmileyFacee]

Yup. Direct quotes let people see how misguided this religion is. From Sahih Al bukari: "The truest of word is the Book of Allah and best of guidance is the guidance of Muhammad. The worst of things are those that are newly invented; every newly-invented thing is an innovation and every innovation is going astray, and every going astray is in the Fire" Islam doesn't like innovation. All the human rights and justice systems we've innovated Islam is against. The fact we say it's wrong to do what Muhammed did to Aisha when she was 9, well Islam believes it's okay.

How many give figures Only a percentage of them did like say out of 100 maybe 8 guys to give you an idea in smaller scale Around 3-4% of the Muslim population in the Middle East has migrated to Western countries. This estimate is based on approximately 360 million Muslims in the Middle East, with 11-14 million Middle Eastern Muslims living in Europe, the U.S., and Canada. This is what GPT estimates So in which world some percentage of losers who migrated to west is their descendants even if they were how is that relevant here Nobody's son represents what their father believe Its like saying you are what your father were No where Many western leaders sons never become leaders themselves to the level of their father and faded into obscurity

Before I even watch this Hikma, I previously stated that even though you are Muslim (probably South Asian) . I generally respect your academic approach to your vlogs. But upon reading the headline, I hope you extend the world imperialism which is the exact same word as conquest, hence I hope you look in the mirror remembering the Rashidun Conquest of the Christian Lavant 7th century. The umayyad Conquest of Christian Maghreb and Spain. The Abassids Conquest ( failed) of Constantinople. The Seljuk Conquest of Christian anatolia. The Ottoman Empire's Conquest of basically everywhere hence hated by Christian and Muslim, Arab Armenian kurdish Persian balkan and Syriac. I will watch this in the hope that you haven't become biased and hateful. Remember that Islam is far from innocent, but that is if your Rasul even existed and until proof is found in the shifting sands of time that shows him mentioned EVEN ONCE by all the Christian and Persian sources in the first 87 years of Islam and longer in an non Islamic text, I still will maintain that you started as a gnostic group hence the sheer amount of 4th and 5th century gnostic gospels that were put into the quran to try to convince illiterate Arabs that he lived. I believe that someone was promoting a new religion, but even when you arrived in Jerusalem, NOT ONE ARAB EVER UTTERED THAT NAME. PROBABLY BECAUSE IT WAS ORIGINALLY JESUS WHO WAS THE PRAISED FINAL PROPHET. But the story remarkably changed over a long time. Finally, the Hadits mean not one jot as they were written almost 300 years later. And as for Tabri ibn kathir and the 13th century tasfir.

The Islamic Empire Collapsed because the Islamic Empire became arrogant and not humble. Due to their military might, scientific advancements, medical achievements and philosophical understanding the Islamic Empire spread quickly and took large amounts of territory quickly. They carried the West through their 1000 years Dark Age. But this blessing from Allah which brought from Allah vast wealth, power, might, worldly knowledge and influence made the Muslim Empires eventually become arrogant. This arrogance made them eventually overlook military, economic, scientific and technological improvement and advancements. This allowed the Western countries catch up to the Islamic Empires and then eventually surpass the Islamic Empires. Leading to great military loses, the conqueroring of Muslim lands and eventually colonisation/collapse of the Ottoman Empire. The decline of the Muslim Empire and our current state is due to too many Muslims misunderstanding that we do not need Western Philosophies/Ideologies/World Views but we do need to become once again militarily, scientifically and technologically advance and copy Western improvements in this areas then build upon them. We need to free ourselves from a inferior complex which has lead many to mix Islam with Western Modernity Ideologies (Marxism, Liberalism, Feminism, Conservatism, Secularism etc.) while still lacking in scientific, technological and military improvements and advancements. We must go back are own Islamic Philosophy/World View/Ideology centred on Tawheed free from the Western Secular centred Individualism, starting with the gradual implementation of the Shariah through the Muslim lands turning back the autocratic, totalitarian Western influenced liberal rule. However we must quickly embrace Western Modernity in terms of science, technology and military advancements. The prophet Mohammed and the early Muslims kept Islam at its core but took on and built on the knowledge and great achievements of the ancient Greece, ancient Roman, Persian Empire, Indian dynasties, and Chinese dynasties. This fusion of Islam free from Western Modernity Secularism but embracing non-Muslim technology, non-Muslim wordly knowledge and scientific even architectural advancements/improvements. This made them successful until arrogance made them turn away from this formula. Instead they eventually embraced technological stagnation and poor practice of Islam eventually leading to substandard scientific, technological, military improvements and a full blown embrace of Western Mordenity Ideologies founded upon Secularism. Oh Allah guide us to pure Islam upon Tawheed and free from Bidah and help us to become leaders in science, medicine, business, technology, education and military training. Ameen.

[@yellowSmileyFacee]

??? You're talking like an insane supremacist. If both the west and Islamic nations had times of great prosperity and wealth, then that means the cause of such a situation IS NOT Islam. The REAL cause of such a situation is the fundamental principle of POSITIVITY. Positivity is the core of goodness, so it's no surprise that when peopel pursue positivity they obtain good things like wealth and floursihment. ISlam is NOT the answer. The answer is Enlightenment. Enlightenment is the knowledge of positivity. It was because the west gained Enlightenment why they were able to achieve vast moral and mechanical knowledge. Your mind is too indoctrinated with Islam that you fail to see the simplest, most cuasal answer to what makes a nation prosperous. That answer is Positivity, and when you pursue positivity you go away from Islam and move towards Enlightenment.
