37:45 *A significant piece of detail here:* Umar, the ruler of the Muslim Empire, traveled to Jerusalem, not with a royal entourage of servants and guards, but with a _single servant_ and _one riding camel_ . During the journey, Umar and his servant took *alternating turns* ; riding the camel and *walking* . Umar wore simple, coarse clothes; *none* could have distinguished between the *ruler* and the *servant* . As he approached Jerusalem, it so happened that the servant was on the camel and the Caliph was walking alongside. The servant had pleaded with Umar to ride instead, but he refused. Someone had earlier advised Umar ibn Al-Khattab to wear luxurious robes befitting of a Caliph entering Jerusalem, his replay was "we derive our strength and status from our faith in Islam, and not from any dress."

[@First-Last_name]

@@zafran20 they don't..... Having few sources except the person who had it written themselves is rarely regarded as fact. Hannibal at the gates of Rome and the battle of cane is popular in history. Yet many historians agree that 1 historian who wrote about it 70+ years later and no archaeological evidence support it, means it likely never happened or was embellished. Viking mythology is another 1. It was all written by a German who never visited Scandinavia almost 100 years after the end of the Viking age. A lot of written history isn't exactly objective fact.

[@AhmedAli-gc6yr]

Words can not describe how great this documentary is. I was really amazed how you could combine all these battles and events in an interesting way and a perfectly accurate chronological order, putting in mind that it all happened in a relatively narrow period of time and a vast geographical range with one of the most complicated and crucial times in the history. Giving the fact that i'm a muslim, I even gained much more knowledge about this part of history than I have ever gained during my school history classes for 12 years.

This is how history lessons should be taught.this turns history from boring subjects into interesting and engaging stories, while containing valuable information.

[@carpediem5232]

The thing is that modern lessons are build upon student interaction students are supposed to form the basis of the lesson with teachers giving input. If you want story times we are back to lectures from the front of the classroom which is besides the point. Videos like these or the teacher telling stories can only be part of a lesson. How much do you still know from the video now that one month is passed? information retention and the development of competences are often less with videos or teaching from the front. Also these videos have the inherent benefit that you chose this topic and to watch this video. This means that you have an inherent interest. It is quite often the case that the same topics are seen as "boring" by others or even the same people just in another context like school since it is culturally expected that school is "boring" teachers" have way more work to do to win their "audience" over.

[@abcdedfg8340]

Yup, always good to read between the lines though. We often forget alexander the great was both merciful and brutal. He oversaw the enslavement and murder of many in his conquests, but conquered a huge empire. But later historians often chose to make him a hero.

[@carpediem5232]

@X73RM Well the muslim expansion is part of the current curriculum in all states I am aware of. On top of that comes that fact that the topics for history lessons are pretty much all eurocentric and that there simply isn't enough time to go through all of history in detail.

[@carpediem5232]

@X73RM That's from the "Kernlehrplan NRW" "Sachkompetenz Die Schülerinnen und Schüler • beschreiben die Begegnung von Kulturen im maurischen Spanien als Beispiel für ein gelungenes Miteinander von Christen, Juden und Muslimen, • beschreiben die Begegnung der Kulturen während der Kreuzzüge unter Berücksichtigung des Alleingültigkeitsanspruches der Religionen. Urteilskompetenz: Die Schülerinnen und Schüler können • beurteilen und bewerten die Kreuzzüge aus zeitgenössischer christlicher und muslimischer Sicht sowie aus heutiger Perspektive." So there is room and and the encouragement to talk about aspects of the golden age of Islam. It is not that in depth, but no topic in history really is that in depth in school. And compared to other cultures like the Chinese, Hindu, South East Asian, African or precolonial American cultures, the history of Islamic culture at least is mentioned and discussed.

[@pasikhdar6617]

Almost all of the warriors are volunteers, and many of them are ascetics. Their commanders, among them also political leaders, are always the most pious, always participate in combat, and the most hardcore of ascetics. They are voluntarily poor as they love to donate all of their personal wealth to the cause of the state & its people, and at times would go on to routinely fast with only the sustenance of unfathomably little provisions. The Rashidun Caliphate armies do not need the kind of recruitment/incentivizing, feeding, and maintaining that all other armies need, and that is because of their impeccable faith. It is a difficult reality to fathom, as us people of "modern" times have grown comfortable with lavishness and abundant amenities. P.S. yes there were still wealthy merchants during their rule, as their empire is relatively prosperous. It is just that they cannot abuse their wealth to acquire power (like how the modern world is now), and the appointed leaders are selected based upon the merit of piety, wisdom, and knowledge. So much so that most of them (the leaders) are compelled to practice incredible degrees of asceticism voluntarily. Their empire is practically led by individuals with superhuman willpower and wisdom.

I think this generation of men was nothing short of incredible. No formal military training, yet consistently excelling on the field of battle. Literally, “Companions” of the Prophet (pbuh), reminiscent of Alexander’s favourite unit. The unique ability to accept anyone into the fold of faith even after a battle, and the role of laws of war and equal citizenship helped them significantly in battle. Also, expanding so far with such slow communications makes all of this all the more impressive strategically.

Regarding Philip the Arab and the Palmyrene empire, there's far more established literature that justifies, explains and studies the formation of Islamic religious heritage in the context of Arab culture without attributing it to Roman or Christian influence. Similarities between all Abrahamic religions prove a common eschatological framwork, not plagiarism as an often imperially-geared orientalist movement would suggest in making it a point to try and disprove, undermine or dismiss a faith group. Something unique to Western discourse on Islam. So what's your point bro, and please be specific if you want to have a discussion.

The comment section is nice today. It's filled with people enjoying the video, islamophobes getting rekted and people talking about military things.

[@AFDiini1722]

Kings and Generals one of the best content creators when it comes to ancient military history. better than any mainstream military documentary makers I have ever seen and i prob watched a million documentaries on the subject

Thank you so much for studying such a long history and represent to us as an animated video.

Khalid ibn al walid : arguably the "The Greatest General In History"🙏🙏

[@sidibouchrit]

@Rao Ahmed, The Last Prophet and Final Messenger (Blessings and Salutations be upon Him) is The Greatest Warrior in the history of the universe ( He single-handedly stood up to a force of 40,000 enemies soldiers at Hunayn, when his 12,000 fighters were ambushed; He single-handedly was able to rally his scattered troops , and Him and his troops then completely pulverized to smitherens the 40,000 enemies soldiers). Khaleed Ibn Waleed (RA / رضي الله عنه ) fought in more than 150 battles , and never lost a single battle!

im not muslim but it makes me sad to see how Khalid was treated after everything he did :/

[@sidibouchrit]

@@rav9066 , I strongly believe,that your sentiment has being shared by Billions and Billions of others people (Muslims and maybe even non-Muslims like you,throughout history); Khaleed Ibn Waleed (RA/رضي الله عنه) was really treated worse than a slave , as he was brought back to Medina with his hands tied with his own turban ! Look at how this phenomenal and extraordinary commander ( the best and the greatest commanding general in the history of the universe, after the last prophet and final messenger, MUHAMMED (Salutations and Blessings be upon him /صلى الله عليه وسلم ) , was literally and figuratively pulverizing in rapid motions , the two greatest empires of the then known world , through myriads battles, with much inferior numbers of troops , , and with much inferior armaments/weapons! He even defeated the Muslims at Uhud ,before he reverted to Islam ! Khaleed Ibn Waleed was truly the sword of GOD ! The main reason , I believe , Omar (RA / رضي الله عنه) demoted him, was because Omar detected a nascent form of veneration towards Khaleed Ibn Waleed (RA), and Omar (RA) hated the cult of personality,and he didn’t want the people to think that all the myriads victories,that the Muslims were winning simultaneously against both the Roman Byzantines Empires and against the Sassanids Persians Empires,were due to Khaleed (RA). Omar (RA) wanted to smash this nascent veneration and cult of personality in its bud ; Look at how even nowadays,the Shias venerate Ali (RA) , even tough his leadership was marred by enormous civil strife, various civil wars , and societal frictions and malaise in Medina , that Medina has never known during the period of the last prophet and final messenger, MUHAMMED (Salutations and Blessings be upon him /صلى الله عليه وسلم ) ,or during the previous Rashidun Caliphates; As a matter of fact , some Shias nowadays venerate Ali(RA) as a god , ASTAGHFIRULLAH! In conclusion, Omar (RA) had to do it ,in order to dispel any notion of cult of personality , and smash any mythological deification of a human being, just like the Shias have done it with Ali(RA) .

@@sidibouchrit hmm I guess I see, the un necessary deification of Khalid due to his deeds and feats - maybe Umar HAD to choose the lesser of two evils but couldn’t there have been another way to deal with it 😔? Thank you for taking the time to write such a thought out response, I appreciate it

Kinda funny how when the new power comes into play it almost always runs circles around the powers than came before it... typically because they bring new tactics to the table that the old guard cannot adapt to.

Not really. Rome and Persia had literally just gotten out of a decades long war which destroyed both nations economies and killed most of their elite warriors. The Arabs just came out of the deserts like locust and attacked unprepared and severely weakened nations. And even then they failed to defeat and conquer Rome. Getting totally defeated in Anatolia and at the siege of Constantinople. Napoleons victories were impressive. He was fighting empires at their peak. Hannibal’s victories were impressive. The Muslims victories were not. They were fighting tiny armies of multinational mercs who were cheap and this low quality, because both empires had depleted their economies warring with eachother. It’s like me going up to mike Tyson after someone cuts off his arms and shoots him. Then I punch him to death. 😂 am I the greatest warrior of all time? Or did I just attack a dying man?

[@lelouch19]

@@nikolasdemoulin8093 30,000 strong beat 60,000 Sassanid army in their last noteworthy battle. Yarmouk is self explanatory whatever you say about their empires condition that army was in top form and had every advantage and still lost. The battles themselves matter as much as the state of the nation because the truth is despite everything that happened to weaken those empires they have long standing history and power based that cannot be broken so easily. No expansion in history was ever as efficient and quick so cut your bullshit. Till I see evidence or examples your just some kid hater
