El sisi the Egyptian general wants to demolish the grave of Ibn Khaldoun... Paul the Zionists in the 60's were forcing father's one their daughters the perpetrators of Bosnian Genocide did the same they kept on saying to their victims!! A term used in Arabic !! Guess who gave the genocidal Serbs weapons and trained them!! 150000 at least not the first time ...and the Elirian tirbes are the oldest most civilised indigenous tribes of Europe....the Zionists say Palestinians came from Bosnia who basically come partly from Macadenoia correct look at what they did to Macedonians! Hmm
Brother Paul, if you are ever coming to Bosnia again, and staying for a few days, I would be honored and very happy to show you around, no charge! I was 14 in 1992., and remember much of the politics PRIOR to the aggression on Bosnia, as well as what was going on during the 90s, and could take you to a few places in my car. I personally have lost around 30 near relatives, most of which were killed/murdered in or near their own homes or land. I also know from experience what it's like to be on the "receiving end" of snipers, mortar grenades of 60, 82 and 120mm, and of 155mm howitzers. I have also read the Bible (both Christian and Protestant Study Bibles) and done some studies on the history of Christianity, and my faith comes from scientific pondering on the existence of everything, so I think we would have many interesting conversations. Please tell me you will accept my offer and honor me with your presence the next time around (hopefully very soon)! The LEAST I would be happy with is to meet with you in person, as I have watched many of your videos and agree with your conclusions on almost everything. I am very disappointed that you were here and I didn't get to meet you.
As a bosnian i appreciate that you dedicated some of your recent posts to the muslims in Bosnia and the genocide. However, people don't realise that the political situation in Bosnia is very difficult. The united states pressured all sides to sign an agreement where we would have three presidents, but we would have a "high representative" which is basically almost like a dictator the un appoints undemocratically. He can add or change laws without the permission of parliament or the people. I hope the same doesn't happen to the Palestinians.
But the US tells us that they’re spreading “freedom and democracy”, where is the democracy in that system? Surely they’re not hypocrite that just want to rule over everything and everyone? (Sarcasm)
@@css2165 my view is that indirectly Europe reluctant to have a Muslim majority country in their homeland n govern by Muslim. That's why indirectly they sanction Bosnian war indirectly. If Bosnia still under Serbia, I sure there will be no genocide as there are a lot of region where Muslim are majority inside Serbia sovereign which are leave untouched by them. Bosnian war is an act to prevent the first Muslim country in European land.
The Zionist United States is always involved in Genocide, use of weapons of mass destruction, otomic bombs, occupation, invasion, Slavery, racism etc....
whatever anyone's religion, genocide is totally unacceptable. As always it is the people who can't defend themselves and it is evil with nothing noble about it.
@@henriramonfosse indeed, but you know that by islamic laws, muslim aren't allowed to kill that kind of people (they have forbidden to attack woman, children, elders, and destroy fields)? PD: I'm aware some so called "muslim" where doing bad. Just wanted to point out that by religious standard no muslim should be perpetuating a g3nocide.
Im a born Hungarian lived till 1989 in Hungary,my best friend who I grew up with was married to a Bosnian man.When the war begaun he brought her back to Hungary (she was pregnant)and went back to Bosnia.One day she decided to go and search for him,we never ever heard anything of them till this day.Im 55 and still cry.I have always supported Bosnian women to find the truth ,we will never know what really happened because of the monstrous propaganda.
I am Bosnian - my parents remember the war very well - my father fleed from the town Janja, which is on the border of Bosnia & Serbia. He got captured by the cetniks, was briefly at a working camp, digging pits for the cetniks to hide in and shoot anyone in the distance trying to run. He managed to escape and fleed to my mom's city. Never forgive, never forget! We always say.
Brother I am an Indian muslim, We Muslims have no idea about this or anything about Bosnia. Mejority of my family members are uneducated not just that we had no idea about that Bosnia is a place. I am really really sorry brother. After the comming of internet we are now understanding the reality of the our brothers and sisters around the world. I don't know the current condition of Bosnian Muslims on the ground but don't think or feel that you are not the part of our Ummah. We cry for you we pray for you we stand with you. Salam from India brother. And I am really sorry if I write something wrong because English is not my native language
Thank you for sharing and I’m SO sorry for what your family went through 😢I learned later in life about this atrocity and I make sure my children learn about it much younger than I did. They see many parallels today… as a fellow human, I am sorry

My grandfather in Morocco, a member of a Sufi order of fighters, vividly recalls the genocide. He described the atmosphere of sorrow and helplessness as our family, overcome with despair, watched the news and cried tears of blood, desperate to defend the Bosnians but powerless to act, as Morocco forbade joining foreign wars just as is happening now with Palestine.

@@Dawahfr Tasawwuf is an established science dealing with the principles of tazkiyyah and the soul, it has nothing to do with 'dancing'.

@@abumaryam326 wrong. Tasawwuf was already addressed by the quran and sunnah as frowned upon and is seen as an exaggeration in the religion that is baseless and unfounded from the actual revelation.

@@mohabatkhanmalak1161 There you go! Armenian Genocide is often called the first Genocide of 20th Century. Turks were on side of Germany during WW-I and fought wars with Russians and they admit that over 750,000 Armenians were ordered to be forcibly moved by Turkish government. Historians mention over a million were forced to vacate their houses and move (on foot) on orders of Talaat Pasha in April 1915, away from eastern border and towards Syrian desert; fearing / alleging Armenian help of Russians in their war. Only 300,000 Armenian deportees survived by end of 1916 as a result of these “death marches” as per conservative estimates. There were wide spread killings, rapes and conversions of Armenians recorded during this period. BTW this is not sole instance but similar mass killings of Armenians also occurred in 1890s vide Hamidian Massacre (with 200000 dead) and in 1909 vide Adana Massacre (with estimated 20000 dead). These Genocides led to end of 200 year presence of Armenians in Eastern Anatolia. May like to refer to Wikipedia and The 1985 UN Genocide Report. Also may note that allied forces had pointed out the massacre in May1915 (see telegram at www.armenian-genocide.org/Affirmation.160/current_category.7/affirmation_detail.html) In 1997 the International Association of Genocide Scholars (IAGS) passed a resolution unanimously recognizing the Ottoman massacres of Armenians as genocide. Even an independent legal opinion commissioned by Turkish Armenian Reconciliation Commission and published by the International Center for Transitional Justice concluded that the Ottoman massacre of Armenians in 1915-1918 were a genocide. This issue continues to be a factor in denial of EU membership to Turkey.
Have you seen the British film Peacekeepers or sometimes goes by the name Warriors? My goodness is it powerful. It makes you feel like you were there because it is so realistic, especially from a foreigner perspective because it tells the story from the perspective of British peacekeepers and what they experienced. Absolutely heartbreaking story. Reply
Salaams, brother Paul, and thank you. An important topic. I remember my parents would turn off the news coverage of this genocide in Bosnia when I would come into the room as I was very young , but it's a vivid memory
Did you since then try to find out how the genocide ended and who (were they Christians?) helped Muslims? Who prosecuted Ratko Mladić and Radovan Karadžić?
@@deepsareen1I get what you're saying, America did help at the end but America could have stopped it at the beginning yet choose not to and UN embargo which was imposed on our UN member country was unfair and instead to help stop the war embargo actually helped Bosnian Serbs to kill thousands of Muslims. Our Army was really bad equipped and needed weapons while Serbs had Jugoslav national army weapons and arsenal of everything from trucks to planes, Jugoslav national army was the 4th strongest military in the Europe at the time and was completely controlled by Serbs. West and America waited for 2 years and then America working with Iran (imagine this) helped deliver weapons to Bosnian Army in clear violation of embargo but that wasn't discovered at the time and that cover up is probably one of reasons I am still alive and able to write you this from my humble home on the outskirts of Sarajevo. Let's hope that wars and suffering will end in our world and let's hope hate will miss our hearts and minds and good things will hit us like empathy,love, compassion.....
I never knew. Very sad. 😢 I grew up with Bosnians and they were all so devout in their faith to Allah. They looked European some were blonde, and being in the west, they could easily forget their deen, but they were strong in their faith. Actually made me more interested in Islam.
Just like today in Gaza, behind the scenes "International community" hypocrites supported Serbian-government led genocide under Yugoslavian flag by closing their eyes and setting embargo on defence. Nowadays, in Bosnia they do the same but with "white gloves" by supporting ethnic divided entities (for future conflict), politics and media that relativize genocide by equalizing the both sides, and minimizing genocide in form of highlighting murdered civilians in separate regions, or exclusively of Genocide in Srebrenica (8372+ civilians killed) instead of 100 000+ killed in whole Bosnia, along with million(s) displaced internally or abroad as diaspora. Considering a few millions of total population that death rate and migration is huge.
International Communities and United Nations give damn when muslims or poor countries in Africa were mass murdered by the white European Christian colonialists. A high sympathy only for the German Jewish holocaust, holocaust survivors get a special treatment and get covers of their suffering and get so much supports, get 4 billions of free money from American.
Ohh my God!!! Horrible sufferings of our brother and sisters 😢😢 I'm literally in tears listening about that war. We in Pakistan used to pray for Bosnia during that time, as i grew up praying for Palestine, Kashmir, Afghanistan, though Iraq, Libya, Syria were also on list but till today suffering of Muslims of Palestine n Kashmir continues 😢
Do youknow that it was interference of "western powers led by USA" that led to freedom for Bosnia Herzegovina and they helped prosecute Ratko Mladić and Radovan Karadžić?
May God bless you Paul for spreading awareness on this. I'd love to see you interview Noel Malcolm who has written books on Bosnia and Kosovo about the ethnic cleansing that happened there.
Because Paul said “Holocaust.” If he had said, “Bosnian genocide”, the appropriate link would be displayed. Either he doesn’t understand the term or he is being deliberately obtuse.
Thank you so much for sharing this. I had no idea. I remember the Bosnian War, because Billy Connolly mentioned it, but I had no idea that religious cleansing was behind it. I'm disgusted on so many levels.
We are currently having our family holiday in Bosnia from the UK. It has pristine countryside, waterfalls, historical mosques, great food, hospitality, shopping and water parks! Please encourage your viewers to support the Bosniaks by visiting, learning about them and spending money in this wonderful country. We are traveling across the country with 3 young children and it is easy to navigate with great public transport and infrastructure. The people are very friendly too ❤️
Yes it is a great country to visit! Unfortunately I get interesting responses when I tell people to visit Bosnia - even from Muslims. The UAE and Turkey have a thriving tourism industry - let's visit Bosnia and support them instead!! I have seen Sami Hamdi does tours of Bosnia and have noticed Mohammed Hijab is currently visiting. And now Paul is posting Bosnia content. In sha Allah we will see an increase in interest from these efforts!
Same , we just got back , definitely a beautiful place to go to , by going we give our fellow Muslims a sense of solidarity and strength, going to Sebrenica was a sobering time but almost uplifting in the sense knowing they are now free , and insha'Allah the same will happen to Palestine
Oh how I remember that awful genocide. I'm a Bosnian born Australian and most of my family was still back in Bosnia, including my other and other siblings during that war. I don't know how I got through that time, because from the beginning of the war, till it ended, I didn't know if my mother and rest of the family were dead or alive. I thought I would go insane with worry. Thanks to God, they did survive, but barely and in the end it killed my mother anyway, as they were under siege for almost 4 years. She was a diabetic and she couldn't get any medication or medical help, which resulted in other complications that killed her. So I can assure you Paul, I haven't forgotten the Bosnian Genocide and I never will. And thanks for visiting that beautiful little country, that is packed with natural, and wondrous beauty. Despite the sad past, everyone should visit that place at least once. they might be surprised.
On 28. May 1993 one family was killed in a most brutal way in a village near Sarajevo, Semizovac. Imam Hasib Ramić watched his children being slaughtered in front of his eyes starting with a month old Amina, 4-yrs old Ahmed, then 10-yrs old Meliha, then the oldest boy, 13-yrs old Muhammed, then they slaughtered his wife, 35-yrs old Šefika, and then they slaughtered him. They found their bodies near a creak or something like that after Amina's soother was found. Bošnjaks have been suffering from collective amnesia too, it was not the first massacre we've gone through, and our neighbours/ neghbouring countries show very clearly their stand hasn't changed. Our strength and our survival is in the adherence to Islam. We were mainly intergrated, not practicing Muslims, atheists, but it didn't help.
@@deepsareen1 sure, we all know that WWI and WWII were started by Muslims. We all know that Muslims nuked Japan, even today those evil Muslims invaded Ukraine, and they drop bombs all over the Middle East, invading country by country. Rrrright.
Salam brother. Thank you for reminding people of tribulations we went through in the 90s. I would like to add that most people think that genocide happened only in Srebrenica. That was just the climax in 1995. Most of the crimes were commited in the beginning in tows of Bijeljina, Zvornik, Foča, Višegrad,Vlasenica,Rogatica,Prijedor,Kozarac,Brčko. Allah i Bosna
And would you not tell us who came to the help of Bosnia aultimately, and also prosecuted Ratko Mladić and Radovan Karadžić ? Wast it not USA led NATO?
If you think about bombing of Serbia it was in 1999 and had nothing to do with Bosnia but Kosovo. So called civilized world imposed weapon embargo on Bosnia to prevent us from defending ourselves against at that time 4th strongest army in Europe. Not only that, in september 1995, when serb agressors were on their knees, NATO threatened us with bombing if we don't stop offensive. Chief US negotiator Richard Holbrooke admitted it publicly. We don't owe anything to miral and spiritual garbage called civilized world. Allah i Bosna
Genocidal intent was there definitely and it started in 1992 people in Prijedor literally needed to wear white armbands and thousands were in concentration camps; . but court of the same United Nations that put arms embargo on us and failed to protect Srebrenica, that court ruled that genocide happened in Srebrenica in 1995.
So glad you brought up this topic as people nowadays seem to have a 60 second attention span. I can never forget the horrors of Bosnia as I was a young man at the time and even wanted to go and fight but I was prevented from doing so (long story). I had Croatian Muslim friends who went there and refused to fight the Bosnians, they would only fight the Serbs. I knew others who were Bosnian that went back to help defend their homeland but unfortunately they died during the war (May Allah have mercy on their souls.) Your comparison to what is happening currently in Palestine is so appropriate. I will not mention the horrors I heard from the first hand accounts and what was recorded at the time, but to say it was mindless barbarism is an understatement.
Ive lost some of my family members during the war and genocide in bosnia, big thanks to you to rembembering people what happend not long ago! May allah bless you and we hope it never happens angain!
i‘m a bosnian and my mom is a refugee, she was in her 20‘ when she sat together in the morning with her family, it was the day of Eid/Bajram! Everything started normal, her dad just returned home from morning prayer and all of sudden the orthodox serbians threw a bomb on bosnia. My mom still remembers how she saved her money for months to get that cake for Eid but because of the attack they had to leave the house immediately leaving everything behind they had. My Mom lost her Dad because of that war. I wish i had the chance to met my grandfather…but sadly in shaa Allah i will see him in paradise ❤
Thanks Paul for bringing attention to this. Since this happen before I was born I was ignorant about this until watching your video. Now I feel ashamed for not knowing about it sooner.
Muslim genocide in Bosnia not only done by serb n croate militia Christian terrorists but also done by western politicians n country when they put up a weaponry embargo on Bosnia n deny Muslim Bosnian to protect themself from the slaughter. Remember, even islamophobia is also a kind of Muslim genocide as well, an indirect genocide. There was earlier Muslim genocide that World has forgotten when Al Andalus was taken back by Christian during reconquista where either Muslim communities were expelled from their homeland, executed or forcefully converted to Christian without their wills.
This concept keeps repeating over and over. Remember the no fly zones in Libya? And the NATO carnage that followed by flying over the place and bombing everything into oblivion? Gaza is happening right now. They're also denied weapons and deals are made to prevent them getting weapons (even with Egypt & tunnels).
The same thing happened to the Muslims of the Iberian Peninsula "al-Andalus" that happened to the Christians in the neighboring territories, which are now Morocco and Algeria, where the indigenous Christian communities that were dominant here in the times of late antiquity didnt preserved even in this mostly pitiful form in which they are preserved in Egypt. Both sides were equally intolerant here.
@@xxvxxv5588 I was going to say apples & oranges but it would be wrong, it's more apples & flying hippos as your attempt to equalize the two isn't remotely possible. First of all, the 'Christians of North Africa were forced conversions by the Roman empire. And the presence of Christianity in Egypt was A LOT stronger than in the Maghreb. When the Muslims came, the amazigh tribes were the first to willingly convert to Islam and it spread rapidly. Within one generation you already had (muslim) amazigh generals in the muslim armies which became the deciding factor in establishing and maintaining a foothold in the iberian conquest. To this day, there are still Jewish Amazigh tribes in North Africa (mainly Morocco, but most of them moved to Israel after 1948) so if they got rid of the Christians, why not the Jews too?. The way the reconquista did it though was beyond brutal and there are Andalusian accounts of what happened. It spanned 3-4 generations the 'hidden' muslims were monitored like no tomorrow. They were so paranoid, cleanliness was a sign of being a muslim and executions would happen based on whims.
@@xxvxxv5588Christianity preserved during Al Andalus era. Same with Jews. When reconquista, Muslim were treated severely. That were well known tru out history. Ur claims are without any evidence.
As an Algerian 🇩🇿 I pray for my Bosnian brothers and sisters. I can't imagine the pain and losses in your families . In the same period , we were fighting the war against terrorism : called the Black Decade . Or we would have supported you even more !
Let's not forget about the Shia Muslim Genocides. Hope we can look into those as well. It will be eye opening, especially when Muslims themselves stay quiet about it.
tell me about it please. isn't that today shia (iran) using proxies destroying political and society dynamic in several country like yemen, iraq, syria, and soon in palestine?
All other cities in Bosnia where Muslims were living and Serbian or Croats armies controlled were destroyed population killed, put in concentration camps or ethnically displaced. Later on the cities were named differently, and all what was known as Bosnian Muslim heritage was destroyed. The Europe and US deliberately ignoring all just focusing on Srebrenica to forget it easier In Prijedor, Foca, Visegrad, …. See other cities Sarajevo etc But it is what it is The world lost humanity- and the worst is to come- we see it from day to day in Gaza, Ukraine….
My egoistic ally biggest fear as a German, born raised still living here is that by chance they will take revenge and do the same ( BC humans are lame and love to exchange torches and flames) and while I am literally unable to imagine that amount of wrath..with the tip of the iceberg knowledge I have now is my thinking will be " R/Tough but honestly going by history of our politics towards them...fair enough!"
The Gazans were self ruling until Hamas crossed the border and killed civilians. Clearly a haram act. Allah is punishing Gazans now for supporting Hamas.
I remember when this was happening but didn't understand it. I'd never heard of this country or the people involved. American ignorance of world history is common.
As a Bosnian, I can't never and will never forget to forgive those who committed genocide against the Muslims of Bosnia. My mom lost 15 members of her family.
When I visited Srebrenica with my friend Mirza and his girlfriend at the time Katarina from Finland she was crying and we cried a lot that day, place is to this day place which reminds me that humans are sadly capable of insurmountable amounts of evil. I still cry thinking about Srebrenica and I think about it every day.
Inshallah, I want to visit sometime. I obsessed over it in the 90s as a young man who had just come into the faith. I was seriously contemplating going there at the time. To my Mother's immense relief I stayed in Canada. I have been thinking of those times of late, considering what is going on in Gaza.
Brother would you not rather visit and live in Afghanistan the most islamic of Emirates and the only entity that defeated lone superpower of world (USA) in 20 yearr long armed struggle? Your mother and sisters would particularly like that place. Regards.
Hi Paul, can you please invite Dr. Ali Atai for another long session, this time on Daniel 9...I've been waiting for 2 years for his take on this chapter
💔 I wish that Allah will heal our brothers hearts and soul, and give Jannah to all. I have been in this country and region the best and lovely people Bosnian ❤️
Research reveals that Israel had a significant role to play in the assistance of Serbs in this genocide. On 16 December 1982, the United Nations General Assembly condemned the massacre of Muslim Palestinians and Lebanese by Israeli backed and supported Christian Lebanese militia and declared it to be an act of genocide. Israel also armed and trained the Buddhists in Myanmar who genocided the Rohingya Muslims not that long ago.
I remember it well , our hearts went out for our sisters and brothers . In the town of Palestine where I come from , there are Palestinian families named Boshnaq and they are as Palestinians as they come ,and very much integrated in the Palestinian society , and identify themselves most and for all ,as Palestinians . Their European features didn’t not stand out significantly , as there many Palestinian people who are blonde and fair skinned. They fled their homeland in the nineteenth century escaping persecution , and settled in Palestine . Those who I know don’t speak their native language , but are proud of their roots. It was a relief to see an end to the atrocities that took place , and some culprits were taken to justice, but it won’t be forgotten. I hope an end to the genocide taking place in Gaza would come to an end too ,and those involved would be held responsible.
We remember the genocide of the Bosnians. We remember the murder of the Kashmiri’s, Iraqis, Afghanis. And the 76 year long massacres of the Palestinians.Where ever people are killed in mass killings it’s Muslim and the European non Muslim is deluded if they think we don’t! We remember everything.

I don't agree. It's compassion with other people. A sense of justice. Knowing we have to share the same earth. That we don't really own anything but only temporary use it. That we should restrict ourselves. I can go on. Many philosophies and religions can help us to get the right mindset.
Nope. Haven't forgotten. my country Malaysia played a big role in sending armies (under UN) and accepting refugees (all the way from Europe to Malaysia) and educate them here. I was around 21 years old at that time - the crumbling of Yugoslavia.

Being a Bosnian, precisely Bosniak muslim myself, one thing that was obvious learn from our recent past here is that acting like this pacifist brotherly neighbor to the neighbor that is openly hateful and intolerant to your existence is a death sentence as the regions of Bosnia that believed the most in this communist ethos of "brotherhood & unity" which resulted in them not militarily organising for defense, by far suffered the most, which is basically whole of eastern Bosnia and most of northern Bosnia. When the evil is cooking there's no point in acting like this good pacifist that hopes for no war or conflict, for malevolent types, this type attitude is a food for their egos
@@perikiz6940Sorry to dissapoint but there was an embargo on Bosnia and we had no weapons to defend ourselves, as well as Sarajevo being under siege and no supplies could come in. While Serbia retained weaponry after the collapse of Yugoslavia. That is the reason we couln't stand up
@@mubina6944 yes, I know all about that. The West, specifically USA did this, along with UN purposefully to enable Serbs to kill Bosnians. I was referring to another comment how a Bosnian was saying that Bosnians were more pacifist, and that this approach was wrong.
For me, it is geographically the nearest part of latest history, where genocide happened and I will never forget the pictures awaiting me every morning in the newly minted breakfast TV those days! It was part of my adolescent struggle to see that humanity never seems to learn and I watch it in horror happening again and again while my children watch on!
In Switzerland this is not forgotten however don’t forget the French General Philippe Morillon who refused to leave Sarajevo with his troops - he is catholic The Dutch UN troops were bad leaving Sebrenica population to the Serbian extremists
Assalamualaikum sir , i live in Bangladesh im Muslim However i love the way you tell us about a lot of things according to Quran and i firmly believe that you research very proactively on every topic and you are first person who delivers very attractive information about islam in Europe in my opinion. Keep it up sir we are doing so well 😊😊❤
I remember watching on TV on news about the horror everyday, I was sixteen. It is still with me. Thousands if people went to the UN building for safety there and the UN peacekeepers handed them over to their Enemy and then they were rounded up and shot. Men and boys rounded up and shot and women raped. There is still BBC report about it in archive. I still think about them😢❤ May Allah protect all the Muslims. And there are others like Rhohigia people still suffering and African countries and Palestine. May Allah protect us all ameen ❤

First of all not only you do not allow flags but Islam asks for Gays to be killed (just as Apostates and Blasphemers). Next about Quran; how come you have atleast 26 versions existing today. A comparison of the four earliest texts i.e. Birmingham Manuscript which is oldest (dated 568 and 645 CE), Sanaa Manuscript (dated 632-669 CE); both written in Hajazi Arabic AND Topkapi Manuscript (dated Mid 8th century CE) and Samarkand Manuscript (dated 775-895 CE); both in written in Kufic Arabic, shows that numerous omissions, corrections and insertions within and across these early Quran manuscripts. For instance apropos Sanaa manuscript which is a palimpsest (same parchment overwritten after erasing earlier text) a study of just 11 folios showed the earlier text having 61 (non-orthographic) differences with contemporary Cairo edition. So much for Quranic fidelity! Go learn and not simply be brain washed by your Maulavis.

@@deepsareen1That isn't true. That's what you got from the media but you probably never read the while Qur'an with context. I am a muslim woman and I have much more rights rhan a Cristian woman, in fact, I've had them for over 1400 years while your women only received them in the previous century. Islam teaches me not to hate anyone wether in islam or out and it forbids killing except in self-defence when you have no other choice. We don't hate gays fyi, yes it is prohibited in islam to ACT upon your homose*ual thoughts if you have them but it isn't prohibited if a person has such feelings(we're all human and only acting upon those thoughts is considered a sin in islam for ppl who have them), and even then, we aren't allowed to hate on anyone. We don't hate Christians or any other non-muslims, in fact, muslim men are allowed to marry christian/jewish women(women can't so as to retain her rights within islam). And if you listened to the video, it was the Christians who attacked us because we are muslims, not the other way around. If you visit Bosnia you will see churches, synagogues, mosques all within walking distance from eachother and in a large scale. You have no idea what you're talking about so get informed and educated first, before claiming to know something

If you dont mind, I would like to correct one mistake you made in the video, which i think is very important. Bosniaks, Serbs and Croats ARE 3 different ethnic groups, and wether it makes sense or not, all 3 have embodied their religious orientation as one with their ethnic identity. Although our languages are initially the same, the dialects are very distinguishable, and each also has a culture unique from one another. The issue is that Bosniaks were denied their identity for decades especially in Yugoslavia, where we were denied our language, our name, our success in literature and all other cultural areas. The main motive behind the war was the idea of the Great Serbia and a simmilar idea from the Croatian side, where all east of Bosnia would be integrated with Serbia, and the west with Croatia. Hence the idea was to ethnically cleanse the Bosniaks from the territory of Bosnia, so the very strong intention of erasing one nation was very, very present, and im afraid it still is today through the politics that is currently ruling.
Is very sad brother Paul that when the disbelieving European League of nations played to divide the Muslims, break apart the Ottoman Empire, defeat them, and turning the Arabs against the sultan, that's when they did whatever they wanted and that's when the Muslims were left without a Shepherd. We as Muslims believe in the decree of Allah and His promise is true and our beloved prophet Muhammad ﷺ had spoken the truth about what would happen to this Muslim nation. But we must believe there's light at the end of the dark tunnel and hopefully we Muslims wherever we are, we will reach there with the help and guidance of Allah and Sunnah of His Messenger Muhammad ﷺ.
Sadly they got away with this because there were no mobile phones. Our media didn’t tell us the truth, so it continues. We must not forget and we must not accept the genocide in Palestine. Barb
America also placed an arms embargo on the bosnians but not on the serbs until so many Bosnians were killed they finally relented and the war took a turn at last. It was my first shock and protest as a new Muslim at the time. So I remember it all too well. The phrase 'Never Again' that only ever pertains to the Jewish people sickens me. Yet the West only remembers endlessly the Armenians and Ottomans.
@@Funplaying123Uhuh. Can’t just say, “yeah, the Turks killed millions.” Couldn’t do it. And Paul doesn’t know that “Holocaust” refers specifically to the nazi genocide of Jews and then complains that Wikipedia doesn’t mention the Bosnians. That’s because it’s listed under “Bosnian genocide.”
Why does TH-cam show only the Holocaust as a wikipedia link and not the specific genocide in Bosnia?

Hmm
Brother Paul, if you are ever coming to Bosnia again, and staying for a few days, I would be honored and very happy to show you around, no charge!
I was 14 in 1992., and remember much of the politics PRIOR to the aggression on Bosnia, as well as what was going on during the 90s, and could take you to a few places in my car.
I personally have lost around 30 near relatives, most of which were killed/murdered in or near their own homes or land. I also know from experience what it's like to be on the "receiving end" of snipers, mortar grenades of 60, 82 and 120mm, and of 155mm howitzers.
I have also read the Bible (both Christian and Protestant Study Bibles) and done some studies on the history of Christianity, and my faith comes from scientific pondering on the existence of everything, so I think we would have many interesting conversations.
Please tell me you will accept my offer and honor me with your presence the next time around (hopefully very soon)!
The LEAST I would be happy with is to meet with you in person, as I have watched many of your videos and agree with your conclusions on almost everything.
I am very disappointed that you were here and I didn't get to meet you.
As a bosnian i appreciate that you dedicated some of your recent posts to the muslims in Bosnia and the genocide.
However, people don't realise that the political situation in Bosnia is very difficult. The united states pressured all sides to sign an agreement where we would have three presidents, but we would have a "high representative" which is basically almost like a dictator the un appoints undemocratically. He can add or change laws without the permission of parliament or the people. I hope the same doesn't happen to the Palestinians.
It’s always the US, isn’t it?
But the US tells us that they’re spreading “freedom and democracy”, where is the democracy in that system? Surely they’re not hypocrite that just want to rule over everything and everyone? (Sarcasm)
@@css2165 my view is that indirectly Europe reluctant to have a Muslim majority country in their homeland n govern by Muslim. That's why indirectly they sanction Bosnian war indirectly. If Bosnia still under Serbia, I sure there will be no genocide as there are a lot of region where Muslim are majority inside Serbia sovereign which are leave untouched by them. Bosnian war is an act to prevent the first Muslim country in European land.

Remember how it ended and who helped end that?
Another thing do you know about Armenian genocide?
@@deepsareen1 Can you prove that?
@@mohabatkhanmalak1161 There you go!
Armenian Genocide is often called the first Genocide of 20th Century.
Turks were on side of Germany during WW-I and fought wars with Russians and they admit that over 750,000 Armenians were ordered to be forcibly moved by Turkish government. Historians mention over a million were forced to vacate their houses and move (on foot) on orders of Talaat Pasha in April 1915, away from eastern border and towards Syrian desert; fearing / alleging Armenian help of Russians in their war. Only 300,000 Armenian deportees survived by end of 1916 as a result of these “death marches” as per conservative estimates. There were wide spread killings, rapes and conversions of Armenians recorded during this period. BTW this is not sole instance but similar mass killings of Armenians also occurred in 1890s vide Hamidian Massacre (with 200000 dead) and in 1909 vide Adana Massacre (with estimated 20000 dead). These Genocides led to end of 200 year presence of Armenians in Eastern Anatolia.
May like to refer to Wikipedia and The 1985 UN Genocide Report. Also may note that allied forces had pointed out the massacre in May1915 (see telegram at www.armenian-genocide.org/Affirmation.160/current_category.7/affirmation_detail.html)
In 1997 the International Association of Genocide Scholars (IAGS) passed a resolution unanimously recognizing the Ottoman massacres of Armenians as genocide.
Even an independent legal opinion commissioned by Turkish Armenian Reconciliation Commission and published by the International Center for Transitional Justice concluded that the Ottoman massacre of Armenians in 1915-1918 were a genocide. This issue continues to be a factor in denial of EU membership to Turkey.
Bless you 🧡
Have you seen the British film Peacekeepers or sometimes goes by the name Warriors? My goodness is it powerful.

Salaams, brother Paul, and thank you. An important topic. I remember my parents would turn off the news coverage of this genocide in Bosnia when I would come into the room as I was very young , but it's a vivid memory
Did you since then try to find out how the genocide ended and who (were they Christians?) helped Muslims?
Who prosecuted Ratko Mladić and Radovan Karadžić?
@@deepsareen1I get what you're saying, America did help at the end but America could have stopped it at the beginning yet choose not to and UN embargo which was imposed on our UN member country was unfair and instead to help stop the war embargo actually helped Bosnian Serbs to kill thousands of Muslims. Our Army was really bad equipped and needed weapons while Serbs had Jugoslav national army weapons and arsenal of everything from trucks to planes, Jugoslav national army was the 4th strongest military in the Europe at the time and was completely controlled by Serbs. West and America waited for 2 years and then America working with Iran (imagine this) helped deliver weapons to Bosnian Army in clear violation of embargo but that wasn't discovered at the time and that cover up is probably one of reasons I am still alive and able to write you this from my humble home on the outskirts of Sarajevo. Let's hope that wars and suffering will end in our world and let's hope hate will miss our hearts and minds and good things will hit us like empathy,love, compassion.....

@@Ya_Berries_Himmel Amongst the oldest of European tribes.
@australiaprisonisland9156 yeah to be more specific
Just like today in Gaza, behind the scenes "International community" hypocrites supported Serbian-government led genocide under Yugoslavian flag by closing their eyes and setting embargo on defence. Nowadays, in Bosnia they do the same but with "white gloves" by supporting ethnic divided entities (for future conflict), politics and media that relativize genocide by equalizing the both sides, and minimizing genocide in form of highlighting murdered civilians in separate regions, or exclusively of Genocide in Srebrenica (8372+ civilians killed) instead of 100 000+ killed in whole Bosnia, along with million(s) displaced internally or abroad as diaspora. Considering a few millions of total population that death rate and migration is huge.
International Communities and United Nations give damn when muslims or poor countries in Africa were mass murdered by the white European Christian colonialists. A high sympathy only for the German Jewish holocaust, holocaust survivors get a special treatment and get covers of their suffering and get so much supports, get 4 billions of free money from American.
Ohh my God!!! Horrible sufferings of our brother and sisters 😢😢
I'm literally in tears listening about that war.
We in Pakistan used to pray for Bosnia during that time, as i grew up praying for Palestine, Kashmir, Afghanistan, though Iraq, Libya, Syria were also on list but till today suffering of Muslims of Palestine n Kashmir continues 😢
Do youknow that it was interference of "western powers led by USA" that led to freedom for Bosnia Herzegovina and they helped prosecute Ratko Mladić and Radovan Karadžić?

Why does youtube show only the holokaust as a wikipedia link and not about the specific genocides
Indeed!
Because a certain group of people who control the levers of power are only allowed to be the eternal victim.
Because Paul said “Holocaust.” If he had said, “Bosnian genocide”, the appropriate link would be displayed. Either he doesn’t understand the term or he is being deliberately obtuse.
@@chiararomano1818 still begs the question, why is holocaust highlighted yet all other genocides are not
The term “Holocaust” was trademarked & marketed by Jews. So people couldn’t use that for other genocides. I believe the trademark has now lapsed.
Thank you so much for sharing this. I had no idea. I remember the Bosnian War, because Billy Connolly mentioned it, but I had no idea that religious cleansing was behind it. I'm disgusted on so many levels.
We are currently having our family holiday in Bosnia from the UK. It has pristine countryside, waterfalls, historical mosques, great food, hospitality, shopping and water parks! Please encourage your viewers to support the Bosniaks by visiting, learning about them and spending money in this wonderful country. We are traveling across the country with 3 young children and it is easy to navigate with great public transport and infrastructure. The people are very friendly too ❤️
Welcome! I hope you'll have good time in our country!
Yes it is a great country to visit! Unfortunately I get interesting responses when I tell people to visit Bosnia - even from Muslims. The UAE and Turkey have a thriving tourism industry - let's visit Bosnia and support them instead!! I have seen Sami Hamdi does tours of Bosnia and have noticed Mohammed Hijab is currently visiting. And now Paul is posting Bosnia content. In sha Allah we will see an increase in interest from these efforts!
Same , we just got back , definitely a beautiful place to go to , by going we give our fellow Muslims a sense of solidarity and strength, going to Sebrenica was a sobering time but almost uplifting in the sense knowing they are now free , and insha'Allah the same will happen to Palestine
It's an amazing country with very beautiful landscapes, mixed culture, tasty food, and beautiful people.My favourite places are Sarajevo and Mostar ❤❤
@faizaanazmi9086 don't worry, Bosnia is very busy and tourist all over the world coming..
Oh how I remember that awful genocide. I'm a Bosnian born Australian and most of my family was still back in Bosnia, including my other and other siblings during that war. I don't know how I got through that time, because from the beginning of the war, till it ended, I didn't know if my mother and rest of the family were dead or alive. I thought I would go insane with worry.
Thanks to God, they did survive, but barely and in the end it killed my mother anyway, as they were under siege for almost 4 years. She was a diabetic and she couldn't get any medication or medical help, which resulted in other complications that killed her. So I can assure you Paul, I haven't forgotten the Bosnian Genocide and I never will. And thanks for visiting that beautiful little country, that is packed with natural, and wondrous beauty. Despite the sad past, everyone should visit that place at least once. they might be surprised.
I have one question why was Yugoslavia dismantled and why for 70 years Tito (I don’t know if I spelled it correctly) kept everyone in line?
I still remember the horrors of this pogrom 😢😢😢
On 28. May 1993 one family was killed in a most brutal way in a village near Sarajevo, Semizovac. Imam Hasib Ramić watched his children being slaughtered in front of his eyes starting with a month old Amina, 4-yrs old Ahmed, then 10-yrs old Meliha, then the oldest boy, 13-yrs old Muhammed, then they slaughtered his wife, 35-yrs old Šefika, and then they slaughtered him.
They found their bodies near a creak or something like that after Amina's soother was found.
Bošnjaks have been suffering from collective amnesia too, it was not the first massacre we've gone through, and our neighbours/ neghbouring countries show very clearly their stand hasn't changed.
Our strength and our survival is in the adherence to Islam. We were mainly intergrated, not practicing Muslims, atheists, but it didn't help.
I'm from Indonesia, and stil remember Bosnian massacre. Never forget, never will

Salam brother. Thank you for reminding people of tribulations we went through in the 90s. I would like to add that most people think that genocide happened only in Srebrenica. That was just the climax in 1995. Most of the crimes were commited in the beginning in tows of Bijeljina, Zvornik, Foča, Višegrad,Vlasenica,Rogatica,Prijedor,Kozarac,Brčko.
Allah i Bosna
And would you not tell us who came to the help of Bosnia aultimately, and also prosecuted Ratko Mladić and Radovan Karadžić ? Wast it not USA led NATO?
If you think about bombing of Serbia it was in 1999 and had nothing to do with Bosnia but Kosovo. So called civilized world imposed weapon embargo on Bosnia to prevent us from defending ourselves against at that time 4th strongest army in Europe. Not only that, in september 1995, when serb agressors were on their knees, NATO threatened us with bombing if we don't stop offensive. Chief US
negotiator Richard Holbrooke admitted it publicly. We don't owe anything to miral and spiritual garbage called civilized world.
Allah i Bosna
Genocidal intent was there definitely and it started in 1992 people in Prijedor literally needed to wear white armbands and thousands were in concentration camps; . but court of the same United Nations that put arms embargo on us and failed to protect Srebrenica, that court ruled that genocide happened in Srebrenica in 1995.
So glad you brought up this topic as people nowadays seem to have a 60 second attention span. I can never forget the horrors of Bosnia as I was a young man at the time and even wanted to go and fight but I was prevented from doing so (long story). I had Croatian Muslim friends who went there and refused to fight the Bosnians, they would only fight the Serbs. I knew others who were Bosnian that went back to help defend their homeland but unfortunately they died during the war (May Allah have mercy on their souls.) Your comparison to what is happening currently in Palestine is so appropriate. I will not mention the horrors I heard from the first hand accounts and what was recorded at the time, but to say it was mindless barbarism is an understatement.

They will never be forgotten.
Muslim genocide in Bosnia not only done by serb n croate militia Christian terrorists but also done by western politicians n country when they put up a weaponry embargo on Bosnia n deny Muslim Bosnian to protect themself from the slaughter. Remember, even islamophobia is also a kind of Muslim genocide as well, an indirect genocide. There was earlier Muslim genocide that World has forgotten when Al Andalus was taken back by Christian during reconquista where either Muslim communities were expelled from their homeland, executed or forcefully converted to Christian without their wills.
This concept keeps repeating over and over. Remember the no fly zones in Libya? And the NATO carnage that followed by flying over the place and bombing everything into oblivion?
Gaza is happening right now. They're also denied weapons and deals are made to prevent them getting weapons (even with Egypt & tunnels).
The same thing happened to the Muslims of the Iberian Peninsula "al-Andalus" that happened to the Christians in the neighboring territories, which are now Morocco and Algeria, where the indigenous Christian communities that were dominant here in the times of late antiquity didnt preserved even in this mostly pitiful form in which they are preserved in Egypt. Both sides were equally intolerant here.
@@xxvxxv5588 I was going to say apples & oranges but it would be wrong, it's more apples & flying hippos as your attempt to equalize the two isn't remotely possible. First of all, the 'Christians of North Africa were forced conversions by the Roman empire. And the presence of Christianity in Egypt was A LOT stronger than in the Maghreb. When the Muslims came, the amazigh tribes were the first to willingly convert to Islam and it spread rapidly. Within one generation you already had (muslim) amazigh generals in the muslim armies which became the deciding factor in establishing and maintaining a foothold in the iberian conquest. To this day, there are still Jewish Amazigh tribes in North Africa (mainly Morocco, but most of them moved to Israel after 1948) so if they got rid of the Christians, why not the Jews too?.
The way the reconquista did it though was beyond brutal and there are Andalusian accounts of what happened. It spanned 3-4 generations the 'hidden' muslims were monitored like no tomorrow. They were so paranoid, cleanliness was a sign of being a muslim and executions would happen based on whims.
@@xxvxxv5588Christianity preserved during Al Andalus era. Same with Jews. When reconquista, Muslim were treated severely. That were well known tru out history. Ur claims are without any evidence.

All genocides have not been created equal.
Let's not forget about the Shia Muslim Genocides. Hope we can look into those as well. It will be eye opening, especially when Muslims themselves stay quiet about it.
tell me about it please. isn't that today shia (iran) using proxies destroying political and society dynamic in several country like yemen, iraq, syria, and soon in palestine?
Also the Sunni genocides in Iraq, Iran, Syria, Afghanistan and Palestine
You mean the ethnic cleansing committed by Shiites on Sunni Muslims in Iraq Iran Yemen and Syria?
All other cities in Bosnia where Muslims were living and Serbian or Croats armies controlled were destroyed population killed, put in concentration camps or ethnically displaced.
Later on the cities were named differently, and all what was known as Bosnian Muslim heritage was destroyed.
The Europe and US deliberately ignoring all just focusing on Srebrenica to forget it easier
In Prijedor, Foca, Visegrad, …. See other cities Sarajevo etc
But it is what it is
The world lost humanity- and the worst is to come- we see it from day to day in Gaza, Ukraine….
My egoistic ally biggest fear as a German, born raised still living here is that by chance they will take revenge and do the same ( BC humans are lame and love to exchange torches and flames) and while I am literally unable to imagine that amount of wrath..with the tip of the iceberg knowledge I have now is my thinking will be
" R/Tough but honestly going by history of our politics towards them...fair enough!"
No donation no illegal settlements. Save the children of gaza. Free Palestine.
The Gazans were self ruling until Hamas crossed the border and killed civilians. Clearly a haram act. Allah is punishing Gazans now for supporting Hamas.

As a Bosnian, I can't never and will never forget to forgive those who committed genocide against the Muslims of Bosnia. My mom lost 15 members of her family.

💔 I wish that Allah will heal our brothers hearts and soul, and give Jannah to all. I have been in this country and region the best and lovely people Bosnian ❤️
Wow, what a shame!!
Research reveals that Israel had a significant role to play in the assistance of Serbs in this genocide. On 16 December 1982, the United Nations General Assembly condemned the massacre of Muslim Palestinians and Lebanese by Israeli backed and supported Christian Lebanese militia and declared it to be an act of genocide. Israel also armed and trained the Buddhists in Myanmar who genocided the Rohingya Muslims not that long ago.
Thank you sir for making this video. 🎉❤
LETS NOT FORGET Genocide of Serbs in the Independent State of Croatia TOO...
may Allah SWT help and protect the muslim ummah all around the world, aameen.
I remember it well , our hearts went out for our sisters and brothers . In the town of Palestine where I come from , there are Palestinian families named Boshnaq and they are as Palestinians as they come ,and very much integrated in the Palestinian society , and identify themselves most and for all ,as Palestinians . Their European features didn’t not stand out significantly , as there many Palestinian people who are blonde and fair skinned. They fled their homeland in the nineteenth century escaping persecution , and settled in Palestine . Those who I know don’t speak their native language , but are proud of their roots. It was a relief to see an end to the atrocities that took place , and some culprits were taken to justice, but it won’t be forgotten. I hope an end to the genocide taking place in Gaza would come to an end too ,and those involved would be held responsible.
Hamas is responsible
We remember the genocide of the Bosnians.
We remember the murder of the Kashmiri’s, Iraqis, Afghanis. And the 76 year long massacres of the Palestinians.Where ever people are killed in mass killings it’s Muslim and the European non Muslim is deluded if they think we don’t! We remember everything.
One thing Muslim populations need to do is keep themselves armed. We never know when our neighbor will turn on us.
So... Like Americans? 😂
yes correct... UN encouraged Bosnians to give up their rifles and then the Serbs came and attack, while Dutch UN peacekeepers fled like cowards
@@fidelcatsro6948 smart 🧐

How the "neighbor = Europe, North Africa, etc...", turn on muslims in Mekka after Muhammads death?
God bless all my brothers and sisters bosnian muslims love from IRAN
Thank you for bringing up this important history. Those interested in this topic may also be interested in a book called _Death and Exile: The Ethnic Cleansing of Ottoman Muslims, 1821-1922_ by Justin McCarthy.

Hello, I am very interested. As you know, there are tons of investments out there and without solid knowledge, I can't decide what is best. Can you explain further how you invest and earn?
Same, I operate a wide- range of Investments with help from My Financial Adviser. My advice is to get a professional who will help you, plan and enhance your management skills. For the record, working with Barry Silbert, has been an amazing experience.
That's why Islam and only Islam is the One and only solution to all humanity's problems
*Monotheism* is not islam specifically
It's literally every problem in the world 😂
Or are you the problem, sometime certain situations can tell you change your way? You have become the problem to world peace 😢
@@Dayda-7 them? Peace? Did you just born yesterday?
I don't agree. It's compassion with other people. A sense of justice. Knowing we have to share the same earth. That we don't really own anything but only temporary use it. That we should restrict ourselves. I can go on.
Many philosophies and religions can help us to get the right mindset.
Yes it was forgotten unfortunately😢
Nope. Haven't forgotten. my country Malaysia played a big role in sending armies (under UN) and accepting refugees (all the way from Europe to Malaysia) and educate them here. I was around 21 years old at that time - the crumbling of Yugoslavia.
Christindom and The West never civilised.
Must be true if you say so.

Muslim's claim that the perfect role model for morality was an old man that owned slaves, allowed severe wife beating and had sex with a 9 year old.
Go figure.
We will never forget the genocide of Bosnians that took place in the middle of so called civilised Europe.Today the same thing is happening in Palestine with the support of US and European countries.May Allah help the innocents suffering under evil regimes.
Other utube people should cover this. Never forget. Barb. Thank you for this.
Being a Bosnian, precisely Bosniak muslim myself, one thing that was obvious learn from our recent past here is that acting like this pacifist brotherly neighbor to the neighbor that is openly hateful and intolerant to your existence is a death sentence as the regions of Bosnia that believed the most in this communist ethos of "brotherhood & unity" which resulted in them not militarily organising for defense, by far suffered the most, which is basically whole of eastern Bosnia and most of northern Bosnia.
When the evil is cooking there's no point in acting like this good pacifist that hopes for no war or conflict, for malevolent types, this type attitude is a food for their egos
totally agree. You have to stand up for evil and people who hate you
my ancestors are from Bosnia Malkocoglu Bali Bey - Malkovic family
@@perikiz6940Sorry to dissapoint but there was an embargo on Bosnia and we had no weapons to defend ourselves, as well as Sarajevo being under siege and no supplies could come in. While Serbia retained weaponry after the collapse of Yugoslavia. That is the reason we couln't stand up
@@mubina6944 yes, I know all about that. The West, specifically USA did this, along with UN purposefully to enable Serbs to kill Bosnians. I was referring to another comment how a Bosnian was saying that Bosnians were more pacifist, and that this approach was wrong.
Allah’o’Akbar, this world is a heaven for evil people
Bosnians I call Europe’s Palestinians.
For me, it is geographically the nearest part of latest history, where genocide happened and I will never forget the pictures awaiting me every morning in the newly minted breakfast TV those days!
It was part of my adolescent struggle to see that humanity never seems to learn and I watch it in horror happening again and again while my children watch on!
In Switzerland this is not forgotten however don’t forget the French General Philippe Morillon who refused to leave Sarajevo with his troops - he is catholic
The Dutch UN troops were bad leaving Sebrenica population to the Serbian extremists
Assalamualaikum sir , i live in Bangladesh im Muslim However i love the way you tell us about a lot of things according to Quran and i firmly believe that you research very proactively on every topic and you are first person who delivers very attractive information about islam in Europe in my opinion. Keep it up sir we are doing so well 😊😊❤
I remember watching on TV on news about the horror everyday, I was sixteen. It is still with me.
Thousands if people went to the UN building for safety there and the UN peacekeepers handed them over to their Enemy and then they were rounded up and shot. Men and boys rounded up and shot and women raped. There is still BBC report about it in archive. I still think about them😢❤ May Allah protect all the Muslims. And there are others like Rhohigia people still suffering and African countries and Palestine. May Allah protect us all ameen ❤
Allah is our Lord, Islam is our religion, Muhammad is our prophet, and the Qur’an is our book.
We believe in the Lordship of Allah, His Divinity, His Names, His Attributes and their rules as stated in the Qur’an and Sunnah.
And in practical terms that amounts to hating non-Muslims, oppressing women and killing Gays, apostates and blasphemers!
@@deepsareen1Unlike you Christians, us Muslims don't allow pride flags in our places of worship nor has our holy book changed even once j
in history.
First of all not only you do not allow flags but Islam asks for Gays to be killed (just as Apostates and Blasphemers).
Next about Quran; how come you have atleast 26 versions existing today.
A comparison of the four earliest texts i.e. Birmingham Manuscript which is oldest (dated 568 and 645 CE), Sanaa Manuscript (dated 632-669 CE); both written in Hajazi Arabic AND Topkapi Manuscript (dated Mid 8th century CE) and Samarkand Manuscript (dated 775-895 CE); both in written in Kufic Arabic, shows that numerous omissions, corrections and insertions within and across these early Quran manuscripts. For instance apropos Sanaa manuscript which is a palimpsest (same parchment overwritten after erasing earlier text) a study of just 11 folios showed the earlier text having 61 (non-orthographic) differences with contemporary Cairo edition. So much for Quranic fidelity! Go learn and not simply be brain washed by your Maulavis.

@@deepsareen1That isn't true. That's what you got from the media but you probably never read the while Qur'an with context. I am a muslim woman and I have much more rights rhan a Cristian woman, in fact, I've had them for over 1400 years while your women only received them in the previous century. Islam teaches me not to hate anyone wether in islam or out and it forbids killing except in self-defence when you have no other choice. We don't hate gays fyi, yes it is prohibited in islam to ACT upon your homose*ual thoughts if you have them but it isn't prohibited if a person has such feelings(we're all human and only acting upon those thoughts is considered a sin in islam for ppl who have them), and even then, we aren't allowed to hate on anyone. We don't hate Christians or any other non-muslims, in fact, muslim men are allowed to marry christian/jewish women(women can't so as to retain her rights within islam). And if you listened to the video, it was the Christians who attacked us because we are muslims, not the other way around. If you visit Bosnia you will see churches, synagogues, mosques all within walking distance from eachother and in a large scale. You have no idea what you're talking about so get informed and educated first, before claiming to know something
May Allah forgive all the poor souls who were murder in cold blood by the extremists. May Allah reward you for your good work ❤.
And they called us terrorists,I swear they are here watching .
genocide after genocide after genocide... all across the glob. soo much for the soo called "religion of forgivness and love"

What is remembered has been made meaningless because of how it is used
What is forgotten becomes more important by the day.
Dear Paul, first of all thank you so much for taking your time to visit our beautiful country and using your platform to highlight the importance of remembering our tragedy. If you dont mind, I would like to correct one mistake you made in the video, which i think is very important. Bosniaks, Serbs and Croats ARE 3 different ethnic groups, and wether it makes sense or not, all 3 have embodied their religious orientation as one with their ethnic identity. Although our languages are initially the same, the dialects are very distinguishable, and each also has a culture unique from one another. The issue is that Bosniaks were denied their identity for decades especially in Yugoslavia, where we were denied our language, our name, our success in literature and all other cultural areas. The main motive behind the war was the idea of the Great Serbia and a simmilar idea from the Croatian side, where all east of Bosnia would be integrated with Serbia, and the west with Croatia. Hence the idea was to ethnically cleanse the Bosniaks from the territory of Bosnia, so the very strong intention of erasing one nation was very, very present, and im afraid it still is today through the politics that is currently ruling.
Is very sad brother Paul that when the disbelieving European League of nations played to divide the Muslims, break apart the Ottoman Empire, defeat them, and turning the Arabs against the sultan, that's when they did whatever they wanted and that's when the Muslims were left without a Shepherd. We as Muslims believe in the decree of Allah and His promise is true and our beloved prophet Muhammad ﷺ had spoken the truth about what would happen to this Muslim nation. But we must believe there's light at the end of the dark tunnel and hopefully we Muslims wherever we are, we will reach there with the help and guidance of Allah and Sunnah of His Messenger Muhammad ﷺ.
We and our children do remember
i was a little girl in a far off country in asia when this tragedy happened and i haven't forgotton it......i still pray for the shuhada of Bosnia.
and they say christianity is love
I didn't even know you were here. May Allah preserve you.
Sadly they got away with this because there were no mobile phones. Our media didn’t tell us the truth, so it continues. We must not forget and we must not accept the genocide in Palestine. Barb
thank you brother Paul,,,Sellam from Bosnia my brother,,,
America also placed an arms embargo on the bosnians but not on the serbs until so many Bosnians were killed they finally relented and the war took a turn at last. It was my first shock and protest as a new Muslim at the time. So I remember it all too well. The phrase 'Never Again' that only ever pertains to the Jewish people sickens me. Yet the West only remembers endlessly the Armenians and Ottomans.
We should discuss Armenia too.... Admit to wrongs as well as calling out wrongs....
Armenians did genocide too
@@Funplaying123Uhuh. Can’t just say, “yeah, the Turks killed millions.” Couldn’t do it.
And Paul doesn’t know that “Holocaust” refers specifically to the nazi genocide of Jews and then complains that Wikipedia doesn’t mention the Bosnians. That’s because it’s listed under “Bosnian genocide.”
