- In the Moroccan city of Fez, Fatima al-Fihri founded a mosque which developed into the famous al-Qarawiyyin university. Today it is recognized as the oldest existing university in the world. Fatima al-Fihri was born in 800 A.D. She was the daughter of Mohammed Bnou Abdullah al-Fihri - a rich merchant who settled in Fez with his family during the reign of Idris II. Until this day, Fatima's life holds many secrets even to historians. One such mystery surrounds the date of her death, which may have been around 878. During her lifetime, Fatima was called the "mother of boys".

To those indians : nalanda was not an university . It was a bhuddhism religious learning place ! Or bhuddhism philosophy . Not a modern university .
Please don't call it nalanda university .
@@Peace-tl1ll Nalanda was an acclaimed Mahavihara, a large Buddhist monastery in the ancient kingdom of Magadha (modern-day Bihar) in India
@@Peace-tl1ll even if you say this isn't there's Ez-Zitouna University and also al Azhar
😂ignorant ,, they taught science economics and many more bro just search don't shit lies ,, you know how many foreign students came there don't be ignorant

@MF10COMPS™ 👌🏼
Islam is perfect!
😂😂😂
Thanks for uploading. But it was a bit short. Would love to know more about her.
@@Peace-tl1ll thank you
@@fsheik1127 In order not to confuse matters, these are universities that are not in the modern sense and are also extinct before BC. Only traces of them remain, unlike the University of Al-Qarawiyyin, which used to meet the conditions of a modern university and is still operating until now.
Hey
She was more beautiful than this
The artist did a bad job
I think it’s conveying her as an old woman! Most paintings show her as a young woman.

What a crock of revisionist history. The University of Bologna (Università di Bologna), Italy, which was founded in 1088, is the first university in the sense of: being a high degree-awarding institute. It promoted freedom not forced, militant Islam on it's students. This video is nothing but propaganda.
Thanks DW for the video :)
She was arab, not african. Stop lying.
Can be arab and African. These two concepts don't cobtradict each other.
Being african means living on african soil. Being arab means speaking and having arab as a culture. You definitely don't know what you are talking about.
Arab is Africa/ Asia, which is why we're Afroasiatic ethnically. There was never a borderline separating us from crossing Africa/ Asia, Africa is West Asia. Salaam Peace and may Allah preserve Fatimah for her love of Allah and our Ummah in Africa and abroad☪️💚☝🏽🌴
@@thirdeffect she was not black, she was arab caucasian, if you have a problem with it you are not a true muslim, you are a racist
you are layer it is islamic
@@nc8689 speaking Arabic does not make you Arab, I am from Argentina, I speak Spanish and my family is of Arab descent, I am bloody Arab, or Semitic.
speaking arabic is one thing, adopting arabic culture is another, but it does not make you ethnically arab.
Indonesian people speak Arabic because they are Muslims, but ethnically they have nothing to do with Arabs.
You are confusing yourself with the term Arabized.
It is like the white Jews of Europe, they are not Semitic descendants of ancient Israelites.
Speech is one thing, ethnicity is another, nation is another, and religion is another
very nice...helpful..
The University of ancient Takshashila was an ancient university located in the city of Takṣaśilā (Sanskrit: तक्षशिला) (Taxila in modern-day Pakistan) near the bank of the Indus River.[1][2] According to the Ramayana, the city was founded by Bharata, the son of Kaikeyi, and younger half brother of Rama.[3] Along with Nalanda, Taxila was one of the leading seats of higher learning in ancient India.[4] It became the capital of the Achaemenid territories in northwestern Indian subcontinent following the Achaemenid conquest of the Indus Valley around 540 BCE. Taxila was at the crossroad of the main trade roads of Asia, and was probably populated by Persians, Greeks, Scythians and many ethnicities coming from the various parts of the Achaemenid Empire.[5][6][7] -wiki ,,,, here is the thing look carefully at dates and foreign students ,, there are many like those in india even before that
Oh my god there they go again....
no one gonna talk about tht...if we dnt give freedoom our women how she become founder of this university???!! n where the money came from?? if we do nt give proper inherit
She inherited the money from her father and in Islam no one can decide what the woman does with her money because it's hers and hers alone.🙂
@@lin24434 exactly..
Women from wealthy families always had more freedom than men in the same family.
They are the sheep of Fatima Fahriye, University of Al-Qarawiyyin, built in the 7th century by Daoud bin Idris, not in the 9th century, during the Idrisid rule in Morocco. How can this distortion pass?
Thanks for joining the conversation.
Sounds like that was retrofitted to change the narrative from a woman creating the place XD. Given the patriarchal narrative, I think that's safe.
Nalanda (Nālandā, pronounced [naːlən̪d̪aː]) was a renowned mahavihara (Buddhist monastic university) in ancient Magadha (modern-day Bihar), India.[5][6] Considered by historians to be the world's first university[7] and among the greatest centers of learning in the ancient world, it was located near the city of Rajagriha (now Rajgir) and about 90 kilometres (56 mi) southeast of Pataliputra (now Patna). Operating from 427 until 1197 CE,[8][9] Nalanda played a vital role in promoting the patronage of arts and academics during the 5th and 6th century CE, a period that has since been described as the "Golden Age of India" by scholars.[10] -wiki ,,, have some sense
Learn to differentiate modern secular University to a buddhist monastic one
Goo kha
yeah you right they were learning how to worship statue and animals hhhh
No doubt Nalanda is the oldest. But it is not operational. It is in ruins today. Whereas this Muslim university that was founded in 859 in Morocco it is still operational today.
That's what tv anchor says. Oldest operational university.
And Nalanda was not the oldest. You will find oldest universities in all major civilization. And no doubt India was not behind. India was doing good too. But the Nalana doesn't exist anymore. It is in ruins today
Get the out you pagans,
Nalanda is the oldest University destroyed by Islamist
That was a monastery, not a university. No such thing as Islamists. There are bad people everywhere, in every group.
How true is this🤔
@Molifi Neo, this is very true. You can also get more information by clicking this link www.dw.com/en/fatima-al-fihri-founder-of-the-worlds-oldest-university/a-53371150
Very true
@@Peace-tl1ll these isnt university , its like school, and greek schools are the oldest
@@Peace-tl1ll when we talk about university , we talk about the new pedagogy and method to teach people, The structure to get degrees and stuffs , but if u re talking about Schools , greek schools are the oldest , which majors are taught in takshashila and Nalanda?
@@Peace-tl1ll it was a Buddhist university?
How ironic that a woman founded a university that women were not allowed to attend. Sort of reminds me of Indira Ghandi's contributions in India. Truth: Everyone (often) is telling the truth. However, no one seems to ever tell the entire truth, partly because the histories are so layered and complicated. The U.S., for instance, is here in its present form partly because of the atrocities that were committed -- the stealing of labor from Africa and the stealing of land from Native Americans... However, it is here. I could be here all day. People are a combination of traits -- good, bad, and amoral. Some of people have more good traits than bad ones, and vice versa. That does not let anyone off of the hook for their misdeeds. Being a combination of traits doesn't mean that we don't get to choose. It just means that none of us is God.
...and also: Just as Africa is not a country, neither is it Black. Accepting ambiguity is difficult.
Forget about this lies and clowning. Women in the past Islamic civilization were studying medicine, literature, education and jurisprudence..
@@loussislamic3806 They're just looking for an excuse to hate white people and blame their problems on someone else and act like the victim... I don't think they can handle the fact that Native Americans fought side by side with the White Man since Plenty Coups, or that African tribes sold their own people into slavery and that slavery has nothing to do with race, historically. How ironic, indeed.
Harran university in Turkish occupied northern syria is older.
No existing university today in the world is older than alkaraouiine. You can't change a fact.
No offense... Jewish philosopher Maimonides... isn't someone I'd be glorifying to have among the midst of men... He's a huge reason why our world has almost turned upside down today... sad to say ...
Istaghfir Allah...
Little did the Muslim's know this back then though... Just show's how inclusive the Muslim's were... Though this inclusivity has eventually led to the gradual disentigration of Islam.
Can you bring the sources of what you said about Maimonides and what did he do exactly to make the " world turn upside down today...". Can you support with credible academic sources what you spread here.
@@nc8689 YES I CAN!
Here on this platform I can not as there's WAY ...TOO MUCH INFORMATION on this!
I am from the
TRIBE of Benjamin 🏴🇵🇸 ALLAH~ GOD~ OUR ALMIGHTY CREATOR does NOT discriminate, nor does SATAN so why do so many fall for this SUPREMACIST DECEPTION 🎭?
SATAN has DECEIVED MANY OF ALL FAITH'S!
You'd have to research more from Islamic History to know MORE ABOUT what has been strategically LOST.... As they have BURNED THE 📚 BOOKS throughout history!

Blogging Theology... is a great place to start!
@@MonicaSĪGÑofJõñãhYUNIS I cannot think of a people anywhere on this planet that is free of committing an atrocity. Let's not glorify or denigrate. Let's just tell the entire story. Or acknowledge from the start that we are telling only part of the story.
