Hi Kings and Generals. Could you video documentary explain why the royalty of the kingdom of Adiabene has a palace in Jerusalem and there relation to the Jewish state and the Herodians and Hasmoneans. Why there is another royal family living in Jerusalem aside from the Hasmoneans and Herodeans. Adiabene is a vassal of Parthia very weird for them to live in Jerusalem in Judea a Roman vassal.
I would love to see either the battle of Nezib 1839, one of the Egypt's greatest victories

@DTF DTF bro, if you don't know about Islam, just do more research about islam. I recommend you just watch at youtube about the real Islam that been taught by Yusuf Estes, Syeikh Ahmed Deedat and Ustaz Zakir Naik.
They can explain about the Islam. Good luck👍
@Skeptical Atheist Do you know that the Islamic empire does not force followers of other religions to convert to Islam and gives freedom to followers of other religions to practice their religion? for example, one of the islamic empires in india, the Mughal empire, gave freedom to Hindus to practice their religion and did not force them to convert Islam, which is why until now there are Hindus. another example, the Ottoman Empire, there are other religions besides Islam such as christianity and jew
in the teachings of islam, islam cannot force the followers of other religions to convert to islam and cannot kill them if they do not convert to islam. The Islamic government must protect its people even if they are not Muslims.
@Skeptical Atheist dr israr was died in 90s and youTube first video upload on 2005. Get some water brother
@DTF DTF I swear, Islamophobes are the dumbest imbeciles I’ve ever come across. It was fhe mongols who were tortured and tried to subdued Muslims but even they end up embracing Islam afterwards. Also, it’s also the West who’s attacking Muslim countries with the fake “war on terror” and ironically Islam is the fastest growing faith in the West.
Now, your delusional hatred and failed foreign policies will also end up Islam more people embracing Islam.

There are no Mongols were converted to Islam. Only turkspeaking ethnos like Uzbek, Kazakh, Kirgiz and etc who lost their nomadic roots. Islam as religion doesn't fit to our nomadic perception of the world, same with christianity and judaism. It could be good for sedentary cultures.

What amazes me, Islam spread to the Mongolian people without conquest/war/expansion routes, but the Mongolian people themselves were touched in their hearts and embraced the religion of the people they conquered. Just like the Manchurian people who conquered the Han people, but the Manchurian people themselves assimilated into the Han people.
Probably only event in history where the rulers converted to the religion of people whom they subjugated. Truly amazing to learn the circumstances which led to conversion of Mongols to Islam. This is similar to the modern experience of so many people embracing Islam in the Western world where stereotyping and cultural attack on Islam is rampant. Islam has a very convincing message about God, creation and purpose of life. It explains with precision the questions that occupies every human mind. In Islam everyone is equal, be it ruler or the ruled. Muslims submit only to God.

Correct
Although the Prophet (pbuh) did state not to resemble the disbelievers. Nowadays one cannot identify a Muslim man at all because the vast majority have adopted the Western man’s outfit, even in majority Muslim countries. The thobe identifies a man as a Muslim which is what the Prophet (pbuh) wore, and he is the primary guide and example for Muslim men.

Back in the day there were only two options, either the conquerors accepted the faith and traditions of the land they conquered, which happened very frequently or they imposed their own way of life and faith.
Huns, Kushans and many more were foreign invasion into India and they accepted the local culture n faith.
Before Islam all the foreign powers that came into India took to the local customs, it was Islam that converted a lot of people to its own traditions either by force or by people's own choice who wanted to escape the monstrosity of the caste system.
@@saq3329 Its not true that Muslims converted people to Islam by force. The proof of that can be found in current Muslim countries where people of other religions still make-up a small percentage of the population. Based on your argument, all such countries should have 100% Muslim populations, which is not the case.
@@saq3329 Never, forcing anyone is haraam.

It has happened before in history, sorry to burst your bubble. The Norse converted to Christianity despite the fact that they had never lost to any Christian power, because it allowed them greater diplomatic contacts and unified their realms. Same reason Islam was successful, might I add. It's also quite racist of you to suggest that Islam "civilised" hitherto "uncivilised" peoples. They had their own way of life and customs.

this narration is all based on modern historians of west and Europe who are always known for their biaseness and many times declared unacceptable for their hands on Islamic history.
Go learn their true history from the descendants of mongols who embraced Islam.
Truth is:
Mongols were never educated nor they were human enough while treating others. When they learnt peaceful and just way of Islamic life and found out about Qur'an, the mongols (many kings, princes, commanders, etc.) had the holy Qur'an narrated and were amazed.
whoever kills a soul unless for a soul or for corruption [done] in the land- it is as if he had slain mankind entirely. And whoever saves one - it is as if he had saved mankind entirely.... Qur'an 5:32.
Mongols learnt about the two lives (this one and the afterlife) and how a muslim king could lead a life of material poverty while enriching his afterlife. The strict rules or ban on rape, extortion, murders, theft during those times under the guidance of Qur'an opened their eyes to follow the path to truth.
Mughals (mongol empire in India spanning for several centuries) in many of their recorded writings are found to mention constantly these terms "pride and arrogance". As Islam preaches in equality and justice where a king and a slave, blacks and whites, arabs and non-arabs, all are equal and what differentiates is good deeds and bad deeds. This also amazed many of the mongols.
Bottom line: Narrate history by compiling all accounts and more importantly with those of the region. you narrating mongol history by referring to western historian is totally Bullshit.
One of the main reason was the language of Farsi, or Persian. It was a very well evolved language and easy to learn. Mongols learned about Islam more through Farsi and slowly adapted to Islamic practices.
We still use Persian words for religious terms in Turkey.
I think I need to declare something for you guys, the Turks are Sufis and the Persians are Shiites, all of you coming from polytheists backgrounds and yet when you leave worshiping the graves then you can consider yourselves as a Muslim.

@@zuboy4272 i am a sunni myself and condemn grave worship etc but coming of the mahdi is mentioned in our books of hadith we might differ from shias on how he would come but his personality is unanimously agreed upon
Mongols did not come to islam because of its proximity but because of its clarity, understanding, simplicity, idea of consequential morality and logical understanding. Still islam is the fastest growing religion in the entire world. No matter how bad western media portrays islam, when i study this religion its fascinating. This one is really special. Its inclusive of all other religions and their perspectives.

No it is not odd like there is not a lot of jews and probably khans dont going to convert to judaism or something like that

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ مَن يَرْتَدَّ مِنكُمْ عَن دِينِهِۦ فَسَوْفَ يَأْتِى ٱللَّهُ بِقَوْمٍ يُحِبُّهُمْ وَيُحِبُّونَهُۥٓ أَذِلَّةٍ عَلَى ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَعِزَّةٍ عَلَى ٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ يُجَٰهِدُونَ فِى سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ وَلَا يَخَافُونَ لَوْمَةَ لَآئِمٍۚ ذَٰلِكَ فَضْلُ ٱللَّهِ يُؤْتِيهِ مَن يَشَآءُۚ وَٱللَّهُ وَٰسِعٌ عَلِيمٌ
O you who have believed, whoever of you should revert from his religion - Allah will bring forth [in place of them] a people He will love and who will love Him [who are] humble toward the believers, strong against the disbelievers; they strive in the cause of Allah and do not fear the blame of a critic. That is the favor of Allah; He bestows it upon whom He wills. And Allah is all-Encompassing and Knowing.

@Naruto Uzumaki The word comes from the root M-K-R "plotting, scheming, planning" while the root word K-DH-B is for "decieving, falsifying, telling lies"...do the two root words look the same to you?
This is the main reason why my previously muslim family Converted to Sikhism.

Exactly, because they used to live around these stan areas (kazakh, uzbek and all the other stan countries) which then I guess turned these countries to Muslim@@Its-darkdead6
Interesting video and much needed. As many of the names and places are unfamiliar to me (and I have been to Mongolia!), it would be wonderful to see the names of the individuals and towns mentioned spelled out. The life of "Oldetu" who changed his religion some 5 or 6 times is fascinating.

Mongols back in the day : "we are the strongest and most cruel creature"

@MERAJ Plays karma?
Mongols now: "We can't update the gauge size of our train tracks because that's the only thing keeping our powerful neighbor from exercising political and economic hegemony to extract the mineral wealth from the region"
@Ashhhadic Century China.
Mongolia had been using a Soviet era gauge, the Soviet era Trans-Mongolian railway was constructed as a symbol of "Soviet-Chinese solidarity", but it used the Soviet gauge tracks instead of the standard gauge being used in China.
Interestingly, it looks like Mongolia began constructing a standard gauge railway in 2019, connecting a coal mine and a copper/gold mine to China. It should be finished in 2022.
@MERAJ Plays hazara are not completely Mongols. It's likely that Mongols who settled in the area merged with the many native tribes in the area, which led to the hazara - the hazara are therefore unique from the Mongols.

mughals were literally mongol desendents, and they ruled a huge chunk of india for generations.
Mughals were Turkic mixed
Mongols were Buddhist and Buddhism is from India
Mongolians had no Alphabet, they used Uygur alphabet.
They built their first city Karakorum over the ruins of Old Turkic city. Near the holy ground of Tengrinism - Otuken.
They used Uyghur scholars for communications with other people around. Uygurs knew Persian and different dialect of Turkic language. They were partially Muslim and were the first people to translate Kuran to Turkic.
They have developed millitary first aid methods that were used from China to Iran. In Iran this called Tork-e Chare (Turkic aid).
Naymans were Turkic people with Nestorian faith and consisted main part of Mongolian Army.
Mongolians were Turkified first then Islamized..

Thank you for your hard work!
Fascinating video. It reminds me that I would like to see further videos about some of the early modern Mongol successor empires like the Dzungars, the Kalmyks, the Uzbeks, or the Khanates of Crimea, Sibir, and/or Khazan and Astrakhan. I really appreciate your excellent coverage of little-appreciated topics.
dont forget Yakut and Kazakh also sucessor of Mongol Horde, Kalmyks and Dzungars culture, tradition, religion and architecture very close to China-Tibet, while Khanate of Crimea, Sibir[Siberia get it name from Khanate of Sibir, Sibir-ia or land of Sibir], Astrakhan and Kazan share similar culture, architecture with Persia and Russia. Uzbeks, Turkmen more to Persian, their cloth, architecture, writing script and tradition but spoke Turkic, Turkish in Anatolia mixed Syrian/Levant Arab architecture, tradition with Byzantine. Kazakh dont change much very same to Mongol, they still live in nomadic and yurt, but have mixed with Persian architecture too.
Kazakhs are descendants of GoldenHorde
@Mehmed Islamof OK XD
@Mehmed Islamof ur not crimean tatar u are turkish
You forgot the Mughals and timurids they're the most known
You dont show direct and straiggt forward history, but you show it in a way that has your views
?
Most logic reason is when they see islamic world, they see higher culture, higher civilization, and the mongols is smart one, so they knew its reasonable to becoming one with islamic world. The fact that in islamic world at that time is golden era of invention, technology and culture, so thats the main factor that driven the mongols to becoming a moeslem.
Makes sense
Great work from one of the best historical channels on youtube.

I understood it different way. If you are violent and barbaric, you become inclined to a religion that advocate violence. The people have not changed but now they can use Allah or Islam as excuse for their barbaric behaviour. You don't need to study psychology but you need to be intelligent to understand this.
@@nathiryouhanna4867 You expressed Islam to be a religion allowing or promoting barbaric behaviour and actions done by the Mongols, which is not at all respectful.
But regarding the matter, the message of the video was pretty clear in terms that Mongols did not treat religious affection as seriosuly and close to heart than the original communities. That's why they allowed themselves to easily break the laws of Islam for their own sake And their lifestyle and mindsets did not allow the swift and total convertion. That's why, even though they adapted new religion, they continued with some elements of their previous lifestlyes and beliefs. And again, using the religion for the political means is also obvious.

There are 5 to 6 million descendants of gheghis Khan and his army are in Pakistan and Afghanistan,more then the whole population of modern Mongolia and they are Muslims.

Hazaras are barely 800,000
@Ali Ahmed no they are more than 5 million you can check on the Internet there population in Pakistan is 1.5 million

Fun fact : Mughal empire (mongol sultanate of india) is the reason why islam spread in India and made it extremely rich and it's why it has variety of cultures in there
That was before the Brits invade and Sikhs betray the empire
@@mohammedyassine9263not really, Mughal empire was persian in nature with some arab ifluences. The mongols were never able to conquer the Indian subcontinent. They tried but were defeated by the Delhi Sultanate but also because they were busy with their campaigns in the middle east.
@@7sunit true, but the first Mughal Ruler Babur's mother was a daughter after ten generations from Chagatai Khan (Cengiz Khan's son) and Babur's father was related to Timur who fought against the Ottomans. So you could say that the Mughals were indeed descendents of the Mongols.
