SubhanAllah! This sheds light on what i recently heard from another Muslim on youtube. He said, after moving with his family to Mogadishu, that he was finding that so many people there have memorized Qur'an, Allahu Akbar. So, it sounds as though Islamic scholarship is in their dna handed down from (perhaps) this early history. Maasha Allah. Yet, in my 25 years of Islam rarely, if ever, have i heard Somalia mentioned in this context. JAK for this enlightening video.
Masha Allah God bless both of you for your efforts to enlighten many topics about the history of the Muslim ummah. Watching from Somaliland, Erigavo town.
Salaam my dear brother Thank you very much for this information . it’s astonishing how much scholarship that has been hitting from us. From history and ancient history to Islamic scholarship and the brilliant African scholars and educators we had on this continent. So again, thank you for this enlightening topic. Wa salaam
Somalia was the Pearl Garden of the Horn of Africa and also the breadbasket of East Africa . Islam Sufism was accepted in the 14th century at the time of the Abbasid dynasty then the Ottoman Empire
I love this brothers humbleness vast not knowledge only of Islam but his knowledge on history and Islam within the Horn Of Africa a very rare topic,that region region of Africa in regards to Old Islamic civilization gets over Shadowed by The famous Caliphates of the East(Arabia and the Levant)and The popular Islamic empires of The Sahel(west Africa) and The Maghreb(North West Africa),so Salaam to Sheikh Artan and to the host.🙏🏾🌙👁️
@@aminawarsame2514 I’m an Arab, and i do not think that Islam spread to East Africa before Medina, but I know that Islam reached East Africa before Medina. the king of Abyssinia, Ashama, converted to Islam because of the companions who went to Abyssinia and lived under his protection. “Narrated Jabir bin `Abdullah:The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Today a pious man from Ethiopia (i.e. An Najashi) has expired, come on to offer the funeral prayer." (Jabir said): We lined up in rows and after that the Prophet (ﷺ) led the prayer and we were in rows. Jabir added, I was in the second row”. Sahih Bukhari. the Prophet, ﷺ did not perform the funeral prayer over someone absent except him.
there is historical evidence for this today in somalia a place called zeila where there a mosque that faces the old qiblah of Jerusalem before it was revealed in the quran that makkah was the new one its called Mosque of the two Qiblas'; Arabic: مَـسْـجِـد الْـقِـبْـلَـتَـيْـن situated in the western Awdal region of Somaliland. The name of the mosque reflects the belief that it was once aligned to both Mecca and Jerusalem. its the oldest mosque in somalia and believed to built due to the sprad of islam in the 1st hijra
Asalamualaikum Alaikum JazakAllahu khairan for your WORK I personally benefit alot. Please shed some light on the misconception that all Persians have converted to Shi'ism. It's important to recognize that the eastern Persians/Tajiks, adhere strongly to Sunni Islam, especially in the historical region of Khorasan and what Britain called Afghanistan. Sunni Persians/Tajiks of Kabul, Bukhara, Herat(Harawi), Samarqand, Balkh, Tirmidh, Ghazna, Merv(Marwazi), Bamyan, Ghor, Badakhshan, etc. Unfortunately the oppression imposed on them by the USSR in Central Asia and British/America in Afghanistan really crippled that Hub of knowledge.
Somalis are ancient people, they were nomads for thousands of years. The question of who is who has always intrigued the minds of all great people. So, to shed some light on where to begin, we should first decide on how to approach this challenging question? We all know that human beings must have originated from one source-in this case Adam and Hawa or Adam and Eve, and when the descendants of the source family increased in number they were forced to separate due to depletion of resources and other factors. Since such imminent separation was inevitable some members had to move towards north/south/east/west. Each group that separated took with them their traditions, cultures, faiths, DNA, and most impotantly they took with them their mother tongue (language). Therefore, We can all agree that every group of people that share a single mother tongue are the descendants of one ancestry. Somali language is therfore a member of the cushitic languages of the afro asiatic language tree.
What were those four books from Somalia? I'm slowly learning about African history and if anybody has any directions they could point me to I would appreciate it please and thank you.
The region previously referred to as the land of Habash consisted solely of Tigray and Amhara Waradha. The name Ethiopia, as a nation, has only been in existence since 1884 and not prior to that. This indicates that geographically, it is not what it is today. It is worth mentioning that their initial arrival was in Sayla, as evidenced by the Mosque known as the Qiblatine, which features two Qiblahs.

We all were one Somali until the British broke us up. My father is from the Isaaq tribe in Somaliland. Our great poet and warrior Hassan fought the British and prevented them from making Somalis slaves as they did in West Africa. We fought the Portuguese to, and all other invaders. We are Somalis it is the blood line even though we came from different Tribes that has broken up into clans. We have been fighting for centuries petty of us over land that is already ours. The land belongs to all Somalis and Somalis only. My people are 200 years behind they think they are still fighting with swords. Now we have three armies with guns and bombs, pirates and planes. We are capable of wiping each other out for good. The British were wrong, Barre was wrong, and the killing of civilians were wrong. The splitting us up is wrong. All Somalis should be independent and help our country grow strong, rich and peaceful. We may have a love and ancient hatred for each other, from centuries past.That can only change for the better in time. The question is when? It is now 2024, I feel this year or 2025 this epic saga, this generational conflict will climax, this old story will end for the better or worst. However, we do have to live on the same land, and share it because, it is not yours, mine it' is ours. Separating and telling Somalis they are not Punt Lander's or Somalilander's or Somali, and they can't go here or there is wrong. Selling our land to non Somalis is wrong, and it is stealing from the Somali people. The Ethiopian MOU deal with Somaliland hasn't gone through as of yet, and if Ethiopia insist on stealing or invading our land it will be war. Honor Hassan and Huru/Horus and come together and live and let live in peace. You can't run or hide from your blood line. We can't deny that we are all Somalis. Although we embrace Allah, but we come from the god of the underworld Pluto, who has never left us. We have been living on his dark side lets change for the better, and live on his bright side moving forward. I burn a candle to honor Hassan and Huru/Horus my and our ancestors every night. Peace!
Well said sister hope ur somali brothers and sisters are listening to you very well, Somali brothers woke up protect ur lands from the invaders, and Unity is the only way to do that

These 4 books are not from Somalia rather they are reference books for Shafie school of jurisprudence which is practiced in Somalia.

salam wrwb akhi, please add timestamps - i think it will make viewer retention way better. jzk.
The history of Somalia and its people should be studied in depth for the somalis as well as for the humanity in which they are a part.
How did the sahabah enter Ethiopia with crossing Somalia first? Did the take airplanes?
You can still travel to Ethiopia by foot, horse, camel, or by boat via the main rivers.
The region previously referred to as the land of Habash consisted solely of Tigray and Amhara Waradha. The name Ethiopia, as a nation, has only been in existence since 1884 and not prior to that.
