Omar Khayyam: Life, Philosophy and Ruba'iyyat / عمر خیام

The main goal of this video was to introduce the forgotten facets of Khayyam's multidimensional genius. Poems attributed to Khayyam have cast a dense shadow upon his other major works, and his personality has been distorted by false interpretations of them. Various perspectives held by a number of scholars about the "Ruba'iyyat" and Khayyam's character has been re-introduced in some detail. Aside from introducing his works, however, we have also provided a summary of his life and education to the extent of our ability.

[@KA-vr4uu]

Excellently done!

[@alremo]

l never knew much about Khayam . Great video, very enlightening 👏

[@farsii5455]

wow masha'Allah, such informative and quality content in a relatively short video

[@FlyingSpaghettiMonster2000]

He wasn't religious at all!

[@farsii5455]

@@FlyingSpaghettiMonster2000 yes he was. Just like saadi, attar, maulawna (rumi), jami, etc... :)

[@religionisatragedy8537]

​@@farsii5455its pretty clear he was an agnostic if not a true atheist

[@AditiOshun]

I subscribed to your channel thanks to this video. 😍I am very touched by your devotion and I gained valuable insight into the highly respected Omar Khayam. 🌼Sincere thanks!

[@jaimepatena7372]

Interesting that Khayyam echoes the Taoist idea of the Creation as having by necessity an opposite...Good/Evil....light/dark....

[@ashaw7378]

Iman I just can’t get enough of watching your great videos, MORE PLEASE. 😁❤️

[@imanmoeinian]

Thank you! I will try to upload more in the near future.

[@ynyn212]

Excellent presentation, done with remarkable respect to present his life's work, please make more videos like this. How can one get in touch with you?

[@moonyhere]

Thank you for these

[@imanmoeinian]

No worries!

[@rebaz7256]

Khayam was not a sufi. He was definitely agnostic. Do not try to misrepresent. You didn't mention that he replaced the Islamic calendar by that one which we use nowadays

[@danialpt]

👏🏻👏🏻👌🏼

[@2023_justice4all]

Wine, intoxication in true love/ or the beloved. As Rumi meant?

[@seandonahue8464]

Hmm…so Khayyam is made up pretty much by the english translator? That’s too bad. I really liked The Rubaiyat. I guess you likely know better than me. I don’t speak Arabic.
