I do my best!
@@LetsTalkReligion Yes you do! Thank you...
@@LetsTalkReligion
But is islam unbiased towards non-muslims?
What does the quran say about you in 8.55 and 98.6?
very good cult burning atheist
SAHIH BUKHARI HADITH NO. 6922
Some Zanadiqa (atheists) were brought to `Ali and he burnt them. The news of this event, reached Ibn `Abbas who said, "If I had been in his place, I would not have burnt them, as Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) forbade it, saying, 'Do not punish anybody with Allah's punishment (fire).' I would have killed them according to the statement of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), 'Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him.'"
@@JohnGeometresMaximosIslam didn’t claim to be unbiased towards atheists? The verses you gave says that non-believers will burn in hell. So what is your point and if you are a Christian thats even funnier. 😂
Dude you are literally one of the most unbiased religious teacher I've ever seen and heard about. I'm a Muslim and the way u refuse to put neither religions in a bad light is just really refreshing to see as their are a lot of scholars out their that prefer to attack other religions than teach their own ☹️. God bless you either way dude.
Are you familiar with the Ottoman practice called hütbe?
@@vladodobleja748What is it?
They don’t attack, they try to prove their’s is right.. if you didn’t believe your religion was the ONLY right one, you wouldn’t have chosen it… Hypocrisy is wrong. insulting is wrong.
@@sheshahayat5117👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@@sheshahayat5117 wrong they do attack. People such as apostate prophet or David wood have their channels all about insulting and disrespecting islam. I rarely ever see David wood teaching about Christianity. Even when Christian apologists make videos about Islam they tend to sneak a few insults in the video even in the thumbnail too. I'm not sure if Muslim scholars ever do the same cuz I never saw one do so but that's what most scholars do nowadays.
Whenever I see such glorious architecture, I think of all the artists, artisans, craftspeople, and laborers who collectively collaborated to bring about these marvels.
Yes, we sometimes forget that all these amazing buldings were the work of actual people. It's amazing.
Its pretty interesting that often times when different faiths and religions subsume others they tend to adopt or transform existing places of worship. I remember you talking about this with one of your early videos looking at how there was a church built close to or on top of an existing sacred place related to Norse Paganism. I guess an interesting example of the opposite of Cordoba happening can be seen with the Hagia Sophia where an older church was transformed into Mosque and was so successful it became the model for many other Ottoman mosques later on.
Yep, it is a common and generally succesful strategy!
@@LetsTalkReligion It also sows the seeds of discord for a long-time. The Dome of the Rock & the Al-Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem is one example. 3 out of some most important shrines in Hinduism were forcibly converted into mosques by the Muslim rulers. One has been reclaimed back violently by Hindus in 1992. An atmosphere of hatred presides over India fanned by the legal dispute to claim another one. So converting religious shrines of other faiths is successful only when you complete wipe out the faith from whom the shrine had been captured.
It depends if it done by the people themselves or imposed by an invading power. That almost always changes the colour of the debate.
I didn't expect to find you here.

In my view, al-Andalus is one of the most exciting periods and places in human history. And the Mosque-Cathedral of Cordoba are one of its greatest legacies!
Lol Lol it was the pagan temple not mosque and church go and read history and archeological evidences.
Was there NOT a Church, where the mosque was built over it. According to traditional accounts, the present-day site of the Cathedral-Mosque of Córdoba was originally a Visigothic Christian church dedicated to Saint Vincent of Saragossa, which was divided and shared by Christians and Muslims after the Umayyad conquest of Hispania. Why are you NOT mentioning that? Guess politically correct is the right thing, nowadays? You are BS'ing.
St. Vincent was from Teruel, but he was death by torture in Valencia.
Not Saint Vincent of Saragossa church but Hispanorromana/ Wisigothic basilic of San Vicente Mártir.
He omitted a very important detail which was wrong of him. I disliked the video
I have visited this mosque several times. One of my tour guides informed me that, apparently, when the Christians took over they initially didn’t do much to the Mosque. However, in the 16th century they asked Charles V for his permission to insert a new Renaissance nave and transept. He gave his permission. Years later when he finally visited the new Cathedral he basically was a bit annoyed as he believed the mosque was much more beautiful/majestic than the inserted cathedral. I am not of the Islamic faith but admit that that original mosque is so much more beautiful than the Renaissance cathedral structure. In any event,if you haven’t, you must visit this majestic structure in person. It is stunning.
It is said that he told the local bishop: “You ruined the unique to build the commonplace”
@eugenioginicambaceres2882 Amazing quote. Thanks for the additional info. Glad my tour guide wasn't making stuff up! I paid a lot for that tour..lol
there is nothing beautiful about mosque, no sculptures, no stories, its just height competition, islam is against arts, so they dont have imaginative brain, hence are called sub-humans (no disrespect, I love apes)
Rare Charles the 5th W
Agreed. When in my mid-Forties, already an atheist for 20 years I visited this place, having read much first. I was inclined to agree with the critics, it seemed the alterations were intrusive and jarring.
There is an oppositely equivalent building, Hagia Sophia, in Istanbul.
If it is called a “mosque-cathedral” then is hagia sofia a cathedral-mosque?
Probably yes
You said it right!
Lol it was the pagan temple not mosque and church go and read history and archeological evidences.

Such openness and tolerance was actually much less than relative. Orientalists and scholars have romanticised, idealised and been very "indulgent" with Al-Andalus when it comes to this. It is true that during some few short periods they were kind of tolerant because obviously the local natives were bigger in number, so they had to be "tolerant" so to avoid riots and popular rebellions. But most of the times Christians and Jews were allowed to have a "normal" life only if they paid huge special taxes (a not so subtle way to make them leave to the Northern Christian areas, and to keep only the more wealthy Christians and Jews), and even so they lived in total guetos. Local Christians were usually massively sold as slaves to the Middle East, along all those centuries (something that even happened to Cervantes much later, though the historical context was already different). Throughout those centuries there were massive and periodical killings of Christians in public areas as a reminder not to have ideas about popular rebellions (in some parks and squares in Andalucía you still see plates remarking such events). Personal contact btw local Christians and Arabs was most of the time absolutely forbidden (even eye contact on the streets could be penalized with death). Though there was occasional contact btw Amazig-Berber workers (which were basically slaves of the Arab elite) and the local Christians workers. The ones who really had contact, and in a not so public way, were the artisans from all sides. They needed each other, they stole ideas to each other, and so on. The same with religious texts. Religious people from all sides didn't meet each other (except rare exceptions), but they were curious to read copies of mystical texts from their "fellows" so to enrich their own views and rhetorics. The actual contact btw cultures was through a very hidden and "clandestine" phenomena, which is sad and interesting at the same time. And, well, needless to say that with muslims it happened the same than with anyone when they arrive to "Spain"... they relax :))) (and back in those times Andalucía was quite green) so they were a bit more at easy with fellow neighbours and open to expand and mix ideas, even if indirectly.
CORDOBA As Church or Mosque both Are Mazing And pretty by opinion As Muslim and respect religions ☪️❤️✝️🇮🇶❤️🇪🇸❤️🇵🇹 🕌❤️⛪
Another blending faiths story is in Jakarta, there is a mosque that design by non-muslim and on front of mosque is cathedral church that design by a muslim. The mosque is called Istiqlal Mosque
Both buildings are truly stunning. I'll never fail to be amazed by what we humans can accomplish and create in dedication and service to our God(s.)
Fascinating! Hopefully I can go to Indonesia at some point!
Indonesian mosque are intresting especially their roof instead of dome or flat roof style,indonesian mosque has pyramid shape roof based around hindu/buddhist temple the most famous example being demak great mosque
Yes istiqlal mosque are designed by Frederick Silaban, a Christian Architect, but Jakarta Cathedral are not design by muslim but Christian, Pastor Antonius Djikmans are the one who designed the Cathedral of Jakarta.
@@LetsTalkReligiones please do...
Jakarta Cathedral and Istiqlal Mosque are few of many historical religious building that you could visit in Jakarta. Not far from The Cathedral and Mosque, you could visit Immanuel Church another historical religious building in the area.
We all who love you on your expertise of all religions and especially your music leaves wanting more.Thank you ,Filip❤
I loved visiting this fascinating building as well as the Alhambra while touring Spain.
Greetings From California. Fascinating views, Mosque, Cathedral and Museum all at the same place. Thanks for your unbias analysis and presentation. 🙏❤🙏
Before being a mosque, that place was a church.
This reminds me of Parthenon. It was a temple for Athena then a church then a mosque. Yes, Parthenon was used as a mosque. It even had a minaret lol.
Also I'm from Tarsus and there's a place called "tomb of Daniel" in here. Basically tomb was under a riverbed where they built a bridge. Then muslims came and built a mosque above the bridge. Now I don't know if Daniel really lies there because there's another tomb of Daniel in Iran but i still find it very interesting how people remember holy places even if it is under a riverbed.
What about Hagia Sophia? Do the Christians get the same treatment? Do they keep that Church in the same fashion?
Mecca Kaaba used to be a beautiful Pagan Temple...
Yeah "it was"
The Kaaba was the first House of God built by Prophet Abraham. Over time it got filled with idols, until the arrival of Islam when idols were removed.
@@CG-zi5ku Abraham lived in tents, he did not build any temples or houses for God. The kaabaa is arabic paganist tradition, there are still many kaabaas in yemen and eastern arabia buried underground. Building kaaba is not Israelite tradition. Abraham never went across south of Judah.
@@Qaramitah hey you can make up and believe whatever you want. The fact remains, the Kaaba is the first House of God built by Prophet Abraham.

loved the Arabic Hijas architecture of the buildings so much!!
😂😂😂 are you kidding?
Why is there no similar architecture in arabia? The builders were the moors, not arabs. A similar mosque can be found in marrakech named al koutoubia
@@adilnourddine9747 Hijazi architecture does exsit now In Damascus mainly, the umayyads brought it from their homeland Al-Hijaz( Mecca, Madina and Jeddah). And through their expansion they did the same thing even in Andaulsia which is later. Barbers didn't have any architect style or knowledge about it, that's why Ibn ibn tashfin called the Arabs during the Abbasid to build Marakkish, And Yaqub al-Mansur called the Andalusians during his time to build Aribat. also Hijjaz was rebuilt by king of ksa For Haj and Namas he expanded Mecca and Madina. That's why it only exsit in Damascus, Old Jeddah and Kofah in Arabia.
@@phoenixk4328
You re funny but not realistic, Hijaz is a region in the actual saudi arabia, a desert, we are talking about nomads living in tents, you cant find any ancient building there today. The omeyyades were more interested in Jizya and Kharaj (taxes) rather than spreading islam or building. What you see in damascus is rather turkish archicteure

Forced conversion of the mosque of Cordoba into a church, and the Hagia Sophia into a mosque, both tragic wrongs. But the magnificence of them both shine on for all of humanity.
Hagia Sophia wasn’t force converted. It was bought with money then converted to mosque.
@@RaptorBot Well that's about as likely as the arabs selling the Kaaba to Prime Minister Modi so that he can convert it to a temple to lord vishnu. LOL. Read the horror story that is the Fall of Constantinople - the attrocities are as grim as it gets.

For me the arabic inscriptions are very intriguing. I suppose that they are Coran verses. And I suppose that not all the christians after reconquista are totally ignorant of arabic writing. And in spite of this fact, that inscriptions were not destructed and are still there!
There are Quranic verses inscribed on every entrance of the mosque i.e. on all the Gates (around 10).
The one in the video is a Mihrab i.e. where Imam stands, it has two inscriptions. One is a verse and the outer, a statement.
"In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. He is God: there is no god other than Him, the Controller, the Holy One, Source of Peace, Granter of Security, Guardian over all, the Almighty, the Compeller, the Truly Great; God is far above anything they consider to be His partner." (Quran 59.23)
The outer inscription reads, “Praise be to God, master of the worlds who favored Al-Hakam II, the servant of God, the prince of the faithful…for this venerable construction and helping him in the building of this eternal palace, with the goal of making this mosque more spacious for his subjects, both something he and they wanted."
These inscriptions are written in gold inlaid on a black background, illuminated by the light of the dome above, which gives the highly lustrous arch and its surroundings an ethereal quality, announcing its importance."

Truly amazing architecture! Just like the Cathedral-Mosque Hagia Sofia in Türkiye
I cannot agree with the effusive positive assessment of the Cathedral and its architecture. The renaissance/baroque does NOT harmonize with the existing mesquita at all. In fact it mars it. A romanesque structure would have been much better!!!
the quibla of the mezquita-cathedral of Cordoba does not face Mecca. As a sign of the Ommeyade caliphate towards that of the Abbasids.
I was there in December and one cool thing is that many of the columns you see are actually of Roman origin! Repurposed by the original mosque builders. That place is truly a mix of cultures and histories and civilizations.
I'll fascinating history Mirror itself you have a great mosque the become Cathedral and your have Aya Sofia Great Church become a mosque
Islam and Catholicism is linked very closely if you study the history
Middle eastern religions, so obviously there will be similarities!
yeah they used to fight each other very often
There are beliefs in Catholicism that is absent in Protestant and Orthodox Christianity, but sometimes can be found in some of Islamcate world. Is that what you are talking about?
From the period of 700 to 1500, in the eastern Mediterranean region, Islam mostly interacted with Orthodox Christianity. In the western Mediterranean region, Islam mostly interacted with the Bishopric of Rome which separated from the other three bishoprics to form the Catholic Church (western Orthodox church). Otherwise, Muslims in the East interacted with Catholics primarily when the latter were on crusades. Often, the Orthodox were as much targets of the Catholics as were the Muslims and Jews. Of course, alliances were made based upon strategic interests. For instance, Venice and England allied with the Ottoman Empire or Moroccan kingdom to maintain their strategic position.
Theologically speaking, Islam probably has more in common with some Protestant denominations as well as certain gnostic branches of Christianity. Moreover, there must have been a significant influence on Islam from the Nazrenes and Ebionites (defunct groups that were referred to as Jewish Christians (Jews who accepted Jesus as the Messiah but not as the son of God)). These Jewish Christians came to exist as a branch of Judaism before the destruction of the Second Temple but disappeared (as did Sadducees, Essenes and Zealots, but not the Pharisees) afterwards. Much of their beliefs, as well as gnostic Christian beliefs, were picked up in Islamic theology.

I think it's kind of wrong to call the building a mosque, as it is actually a church, and used as such having masses in it. Like Hagia Sophia, today it is a mosque, it makes no sense to call it a cathedral.
I think in both circumstances is pertaining to its original purpose of function, which was a mosque in the case of Cordoba And the cathedral in Istanbul (Hagia Sophia)
@@conceptsound5 I understand that, but I think it's wrong for an Islamic place of worship to be called a cathedral and a Christian place of worship to be called a mosque. I think I must have some kind of OCD to be bothered by such a thing.
@@andre_cinelli i understand where you coming from. In the same way that Orthodox Christians would recognise that Hagia Sophia is still technical a cathedral, but since this turned into a mosque. It be awkward and slight inappropriate to refer to it as a cathedral in its current state.
@@conceptsound5 Yes, that's my point. And I also respect the locals who attend the mosque or church, if I were a Turk I would be bothered by someone saying that the mosque I've always been to is actually a church and should be reconverted. I think the same goes for the Spaniards.

Islamic mosque architecture.
assmilitation between architecture from ancient middle east and ancient rome/greece.
One interesting thing about the Mosque-Cathedral is that it illustrates a very interesting point of history and urbanism, which is "buildings change, but uses usually dont". Before the cathedral, there was obviously a mosque. Before the mosque, there was a church or a cathedral built by the Goths, and before that it was moat likely a place of cult and prayer for some pre-christian religion, maybe the Romano-Hellenic religion, or some religion native to the region. Point being, for milennia, that same place, that area of the city, has been THE place for religious practices no matter who owned the city or which gods were praised. Its almost as if it was an obligation to do it there, something mystical force needs to be theorized and praised there, regardless of how the people of each time decide to represent it.

Great video as always, Filip! Partly thanks to the information provided in your videos, I officially decided to become a Sufi in May.
This was built when The Moors ruled Spain
As if Islam and Christianity were ever separate.
The religion of Christ is Islam, if that's what you mean.
@@Halal_Dan Christ has nothing to do with your fake religion
@@Halal_Dan The religion of muttah has nothing to do with Christ
@@Halal_DanIslam is just a version of Christianity, Christianity is just a version of judaism. All muslims and Christians are Jews.

Did you know that Jesus is a muslim ?
12 REASONS WHY JESUS (PEACE BE UPON HIM) WAS A MUSLIM
Christians and Muslims are more alike than different. We are in fact almost the same if we follow Jesus (Peace Be Upon Him) to the word as he himself taught and lived:
1. Jesus taught that there is only One God and Only God should be worshipped as taught in Deut 6:4, Mark 12:29. Muslims also believe this as taught in the Qur’an verse 4:171.
2. Jesus didn’t eat pork as taught in Leviticus 11:7 , and neither do Muslims as taught in the Qur’an verse 6:145.
3. Jesus greeted with the words “As salaamu alaikum” (Peace be with you) in John 20:21. Muslims also greet each other this way.
4. Jesus always said “God Willing” (in-shaa’-Allah). Muslims say this too before doing anything as taught in the Qur’an verses 18:23-24.
5. Jesus washed his face, hands, and feet before praying. Muslims do the same.
6. Jesus and other prophets of the Bible prayed with their head to the ground (Matthew 26:39). Muslims do too as taught in the Qur’an verse 3:43.
7. Jesus had a beard and wore a robe. Muslim men do the same. Women also wear long robes.
8. Jesus followed the law and believed in all the prophets, (see Matthew 5:17). Muslims do too as taught in the Qur’an verse 3:84.
9. Jesus’ mother Mary dressed modestly by covering her body and wearing a headscarf (hijab) as found in 1 Timothy 2:9, Genesis 24:64-65, and Corinthians 11:6. Muslim women too dress modestly as taught in the Qur’an verse 33:59.
10. Jesus and other prophets of the Bible fasted up to 40 days (see Exodus 34:28, Daniel 10:2-6. 1Kings 19:8, and Matthew 4:1-Muslims do so also during the month of Ramadan. Muslims are required to fast the full obligatory 30 days (Qur’an 2:183)
11. Jesus was circumcised. According to the Bible in Luke 2:21, Jesus was eight days old when he was circumcised. Circumcision is one of the five fitrah acts in Islam, so Muslim men and women are required to be circumcised.
12. Jesus spoke Aramaic and called God ”Elah”, which is pronounced the same as “Allah”. Aramaic is an ancient Biblical language. It is one of the Semitic languages that also include Hebrew, Arabic and Ethiopic. The Aramaic”Elah” and the Arabic “Allah” are the same. It means “GOD , That deserves to be worshipped”. Thus the God of Jesus is also the God of Muslims and of all mankind.

Let me know your thoughts after you watch it

No he wasn’t. He was dead before the birth of Islam.
Stop trying to force your religion into others.
Flase claims, Islam denied the death and ressurection of Christ to redeemed the sins of mankind for thousands of years ago.
Would be great if Muslims were invited to pray to Allah in the building.
They can't, since they put idols of Jesus in there.
A mosque is a place where prayers can be conducted.
Very interesting !
