  • There is nothing like the old souk (market) when it comes to Arabic (and North African) cities. The smells, the atmosphere, the voices, the people. Let's explore Tunis!

    Nice video and hope you've enjoyed your stay in Tunisia ... I have some stuff to clarify for you ...one of which is that the small and tiny hats are key rings, they are a symbol of Tunisia, and they are sold everywhere in the country, I even have one among the ones I owe. You can't enter the praying room because only "clean" Muslims can pray ; wodou before praying is a must and that includes no shoes inside the praying room, it is a sacred place. For the time of entrance, you need to avoid praying time when they close doors and that includes early morning and midday dohr and Asr around 16h and maghreb 19 and isha , so I guess it is clearer now ... The mosque is one of the most ancient in the world and the oldest continually operating religious institution in the islamic world ...

    The Zaytouna Mosque is the oldest mosque in Africa after the Uqba bin Nafi Mosque in Kairouan. It was founded in 698 AD, and the year 1081 is the year the concrete door was placed, and this sign documents the restoration of the concrete door in the Zaytouna Mosque. Habib Bourguiba is a Tunisian and Arab leader who liberated Tunisia from France. He is considered one of the most cunning and intelligent presidents. Some of the extremist Islamic movement did not like Bourguiba because he exiled them and ordered the execution of some of them for causing some terrorist operations at that time. Tunisian doors are 100 percent Tunisian and the design of these doors is only found in Tunisia. It is made as a souvenir for tourists

      you can't help it , right ahead to brighten up the biography of a tyrant, Boureguiba was just an opportunistic who played on the national mouvement and the religious emotion of the tunisian people to get into power then applied the planned agreements with France that allowed him to stay in power after France left Tunisia to focus on much worring issue which was the Algerian revolution

      @@abedbbb7083 This is exactly what his haters say. Bourguiba was smart, that's why he was able to get France out through the policy of stages, because at that time the Tunisian army was weak and couldn't get them out through war. He did what he could do, and the coming generations should continue to improve the country's situation. Now let go of the hatred a little, because Bourguiba left power 36 years ago and he has been dead for 25 years, meaning a quarter of a century has passed since his death. So leave the man alone, because you probably weren't even around when he was alive and you didn't witness the time he lived in and the suffering he endured to bring Tunisia to independence.

      there are molder mosques in africa, The Mosque of the Companions (Arabic: مَسْجِد ٱلصَّحَابَة‎, romanized: Masjid aṣ-Ṣaḥābah)[citation needed] is a mosque in the city of Massawa, Eritrea. Possibly dating to the early 7th century C.E., it is believed by some to be the first mosque built in Africa, The mosque was reportedly built by companions of the Islamic prophet Muhammad who travelled to Africa to flee persecution by people in the Hejazi city of Mecca, present-day Saudi Arabia.[1] According to Richard J. Reid, it may have been constructed in the 620s or 630s by members of Muhammad's family.[1] The mosque of Quba, which is the first mosque built by Muhammad, in what is now Medina, dates to around the same time.[2][3][4][5] The current structure is of much later construction, as some features, like the mihrab (late 7th century) and the minaret (9th century), did not develop until later in Islamic

      @@RouraZayani Now we will know who is lying. Firstly, there was no such thing as Berber before Carthage, because the word Berber was given by the Romans to the Carthaginians to insult them. Hhh. You do not know this for sure. Hhh. Ignorance is a disaster. Hhh. Berbers is the name given by the Romans to the Germanic tribes and the Vandals as well. And you certainly do not know this either. We come to the Zitouna Mosque, which is considered the oldest mosque in Africa after the Uqba Ibn Nafi Mosque in Kairouan, which was built in the year 698 AD and was built by Tunisians who converted to Islam and who were Christians before that. When the Arabs came to Tunisia, they did not build anything for us because they did not understand anything about architecture. Rather, they spread Islam in Tunisia only, and after that the Tunisians spread Islam in the rest of North Africa and Iberia. If the Arabs had built the Zaytouna Mosque, we would have found a mosque like the Zaytouna in the Gulf countries, but there is none. On the contrary, the architecture of the Zaytouna Mosque is found in North Africa and Iberia, which was under the rule of the Tunisian Aghlabid state. Now, as for the old city of Tunis, it is registered with UNESCO and its history goes back centuries before the Ottomans entered Tunisia. I don't know how you think when you say that the Zaytouna Mosque is Arabic and the city of Tunis is Turkish hhhh you are funny hhhh I mean, are they building the Zaytouna Mosque and then the city remains empty with no residents or homes until the Ottomans come to settle there hhhh what is this and Ibn Khaldun was born and lived in the city of Tunis Before the Ottoman Empire was formed, hhh, frankly, I was amazed by the limitations of your thought. Wake up, there are no longer such stupid people in the year 2024

      Yeah sir. Almost you find the blue color that's come from the 14 or 15 century when it comes to much moreski (the refuged Andalusian people) that they bring to Tunisia his culture so they were skills people in much domain like build and carpentry. And they were famous about this kind of door with blue color.
