*Prophet Muhammad(s)The Real Hero.* 1) *Ibn Ḥazm (d. 1064), the Córdoban polymath Said:* "The biography of Muhammad ﷺ, for anyone who deeply considers it, necessitates believing him and testifying that he is certainly the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. If he ﷺ had no other miracle but his biography, it would have sufficed." (Alī ibn Aḥmad ibn Ḥazm, al-Faṣl fil-milal wal-ahwā’ wal-niḥal (Cairo: Maktabat al-Khānji, 1929), 2:73.) 2) *Samuel P. Scott (d. 1929), an American scholar and jurist, wrote,* "In any event, if the object of religion be the inculcation of morals, the diminution of evil, the promotion of human happiness, the expansion of the human intellect; if the performance of good works will avail in that great day when mankind shall be summoned to its final reckoning, it is neither irreverent nor unreasonable to admit that Mohammed was indeed an Apostle of God." (Samuel P. Scott, History of the Moorish Empire in Europe (Philadelphia: J. B. Lippincott Company, 1904), 1:126-27.) *Annie Besant (1847-1933) British theosophist and nationalist leader in India. President of the Indian National Congress in 1917.* "It is impossible for anyone who studies the life and character of the great Prophet of Arabia, who knows how he taught and how he lived, to feel anything but reverence for that mighty Prophet, one of the great messengers of the Supreme. And although in what I put to you I shall say many things which may be familiar to many, yet I myself feel whenever I re-read them, a new way of admiration, a new sense of reverence for that mighty Arabian teacher." [The Life And Teachings Of Muhammad, Madras, 1932, p. 4] *K.S Ramakrishna Rao, an Indian Professor of Philosophy* in his booklet, ("Muhammad, The Prophet of Islam") calls him the: 👇 "Perfect model for human life." Prof. Ramakrishna Rao explains his point by saying: "The personality of Muhammad (pbuh), it is most difficult to get into the whole truth of it. Only a glimpse of it can I catch. What a dramatic succession of picturesque scenes! There is Muhammad (pbuh), the Prophet. There is Muhammad (pbuh), the Warrior, Muhammad (pbuh), the Businessman; Muhammad (pbuh), the Statesman; Muhammad (pbuh), the Orator; Muhammad (pbuh), the Reformer; Muhammad (pbuh), the Protector of Slaves; Muhammad (pbuh), the Emancipator of Women; Muhammad (pbuh), the Judge; Muhammad (pbuh), the Saint. All in all these magnificent roles, in all these departments of human activities, he is like a hero." *JULES MASSERMAN,* U.S. psychoanalyst: "Leaders must fulfill three functions -provide for the well-being of the led, provide a social organization in which people feel relatively secure, and provide them with one set of beliefs. People like Pasteur and Salk are leaders in the first sense. People like Gandhi and Confucius, on one hand, and Alexander, Caesar and Hitler on the other, are leaders in the second and perhaps the third sense. Jesus and Buddha belong in the third category alone. Perhaps the greatest leader of all times was Mohammed, who combined all three functions. To a lesser degree, Moses did the same." (Jules Masserman in 'Who Were Histories Great Leaders?' in TIME Magazine, July 15, 1974) *Alphonse de Lamartine Said:* "If greatness of purpose , smallness of means , and astounding results are the three criteria Of human genius , Who could dare to compare any great man in modern history with Muhammed ??? Philosopher, Orator , Apostle , Legislator , Warrior , Conquerror of Ideas , Restorer of Rational Dogmas , of a Cult without Images ; The founder of Twenty Terrestrial Empires and of One Spiritual Empire , that is Muhammad. As regards All Standards by which Human Greatness may be measured , We may well ask , is there any Man greater than He ???

W. (1905). History of the Intellectual Development of Europe. New York and London: Harper and Brothers Publishers. Vol 1, pp. 329-330.] *David George Hogarth (d. 1927), a British scholar and archeologist, said,* "Serious or trivial, his daily behavior has instituted a canon which millions observe this day with conscious mimicry. No one regarded by any section of the human race as Perfect Man has ever been imitated so minutely. The conduct of the founder of Christianity has not governed the ordinary life of his followers. Moreover, no founder of a religion has been left on so solitary an eminence as the Muslim Apostle." (David G. Hogarth, Arabia (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1922), 52.) *Michael H. Hart (1932- ) Professor of astronomy, physics and the history of science.* "My choice of Muhammad to lead the list of the world's most influential persons may surprise some readers and may be questioned by others, but he was the only man in history who was supremely successful on both the religious and secular level."

I think mostly 4 hours is better time to understand a topic in detail. In 2 hours it's still too short and misses a lot of details that r necessary. Like the destruction of mamlook army by Salah din and making gorilla warfare troops. Similarly handling of France and other crusader's armies coming in ships at Alexandria after Salah din became king of Egypt and all the other changes in Egypt that stabilised it.

[@md.muzahidulislamsamrat8037]

When we were growing up in occupied Jerusalem, the people seeking to expel us from our neighborhood were Jewish, and their organizations often had “Jewish” in their name. So were the people who stole our home, scattered our furniture in the street, and burned my baby sister’s crib. The judges banging their gavels in favor of our expulsion were also Jewish, and so were the lawmakers whose laws facilitated and systematized our dispossession. The bureaucrat issuing-and sometimes revoking-our blue ID cards was a Jew, and I especially despised him because a stroke of his pen stood between my father and my father’s great-great-grandfather’s city. As for the soldiers that were frisking us to check for those IDs, some of them were Druze, some Muslim, most of them Jewish, and all of them, according to my grandmother, were “godless bastards.” Those who administered the rifles and handcuffs, those who wrote the meticulous and murderous urban plans were-you guessed it. This was no secret. We lived under the rule of the self-proclaimed “Jewish State.” Israeli politicians have exhausted this line, and their international peers nodded along. The army declared itself a Jewish army and marched under what it has called a Jewish flag. Jerusalem city councilmen boasted “tak[ing] house after house” because “the bible says that this country belongs to the Jewish people,” and Knesset members sang similar tunes. These legislators weren’t fringe or far-right: the Israeli nation-state law explicitly enshrines “Jewish settlement” as a “national value … to encourage and promote.” Still, though this was no secret, we were instructed to treat it as such, sometimes by our parents, sometimes by well-meaning solidarity activists. We were instructed to ignore the Star of David on the Israeli flag, and to distinguish Jews from Zionists with surgical precision. It didn’t matter that their boots were on our necks, and that their bullets and batons bruised us. Our statelessness and homelessness were trivial. What mattered was how we spoke about our keepers, not the conditions they kept us under-blockaded, surrounded by colonies and military outposts-or the fact that they kept us at all. Language was more of a minefield than the border between Syria and the occupied Golan Heights, and we, children at the time, were expected to hop around them, hoping we don’t accidentally step on an explosive trope that would discredit us. Using the “wrong words” had the magical ability to make things disappear; the boots, bullets, batons, and bruises all become invisible if you say anything in jest or in fury. Even more dangerously, believing in “the wrong things” rendered you deserving of this brutality. ✓✓ Muhammad al qurd, Palestinian poet and a man who lost his home to Yacov, the Jewish fat thief who infamously claimed "If I don't steal your house, someone ( another jew) else will".

With a Khalifate we would be able to protect eachother. Freedom to the oppressed muslims everywhere I think we the people have the power. I think a first and practical step is to force our ‚leaders‘ to develop economic relationships with other muslim majority countries so we are more dependent on each other and then we can start develop more and more into a european like ‚borderless‘ unity for easier trade between the nations. And every ‚nation‘ can keep their flags and all these stupid things that were made as our new ‚gods‘ and inshaallah after a certain time someone will become the leader of the ummah. Also these nations and borders were actually never there as they are in this modern times. They were carved out of nowhere from the european colonialists and americans to keep the muslim ummah divided.

Finally. Thank you for uploading, dr.

[@hamzakadir7058]

As a muslim, I'm quite pleased with the way Dr. Casagranda drills down into the details of events during the crusades without necessarily focusing on the religious angle. The politics, agreements, betrayals, power tussele, muslim vs. Muslim, crusader vs. Crusader, Crusader + muslim vs. Muslim + crusader. I think it paints a more realistic version of events rather than just a 2 dimensional story where it is Christianity vs. Islam. and each camp is rigid with no moving parts.

[@oiulti6900]

It didn't paint the full picture like Khalid Ibn Walid ordered the deaths of Muslim converts but Casagrandra leaves that bit out saying that he only had 90 min but the problem is he goes off a tangent when he could've brought this up

Dr. Roy Casagranda, a renowned historian, delivers an enlightening lecture on the conquest of Jerusalem by Umar ibn Khattab. As Dr. Roy Casagranda aptly puts it, "This is the untold story of the authentic conquest of Jerusalem by Khalifa Umar bin Khattab." The treaty he established enabled the harmonious coexistence of all three religions. To this day, the key to the Holy Sepulchre is held by the Muslim community.

[@bilalattal2707]

Thank you so much for the lecture. I love the way you say ''Fine'' and ''it's a Mess''. I hoped that you would translate the name of Salah ad-Din, which means ''the goodness of the religion'' literally in Arabic, as he truly manifested and resembled his name. In that Era, you would have been called Salah Al-Elm (goodness of knowledge)...

[@arshadmukhtar]

Salah-Aldeen was a Muslim Kurd from our homeland, Kurdistan. Throughout history, Kurds have been remarkably diverse, embracing a rich tapestry of religious and cultural identities. We Kurds include Jews, Muslims, Assyrians, Christians, Yezidis, Zoroastrians, and Baha'is, who have lived together in harmony for thousands of years. However, during the American invasion of 2003, the arrival of American forces disrupted this peaceful coexistence. By arming undesirables and criminals, they undermined the security and peace in Iraq, leaving the country to suffer to this day. This turmoil facilitated the theft of Iraq's treasures and antiques, causing immeasurable harm to our nation's heritage.

[@patrickkelly2451]

The Iraqi invasion never should have happened. They lied to The American people!It was a war manufactured with a web of lies.Sad to hear that such harm they inflicted on the Iraqi people and there culture.Thank for sharing.

[@YusufAhmed_18]

Saladin was only a Muslim, he was not an ethnic nationalist, and he did not view non-Muslims as brothers

[@stubbornbeebo3864]

Please shut up. Kurdistan never existed and Salah el Deen was a Muslim period.

[@trelosyiaellinika]

There you are not right, my friend. Yes, he was a Kurd, but Salahuddin's family came from Armenia, from Dvin to be more exact.
