Damn brother.
This is so good!

Please keep the research and summarising going.
We need more wise scholars again, summarising wisdom and making it available!

It has been said that the river in Iraq has turned to a black color from the ink of the massive amount of books that were thrown in, to the point they made a bridge of the books to cross over.

[abdullahsohail]

Great Work Brother. This channel is a gem and much needed.

[topDragon-ft]

Subhannallah! Keep up the amazing content brother, looking forward to the upcoming videos

[saraalwhaib]

I think the problem with us Muslims is that we lost our identity and our true faith. We became too busy fighting each other.

[efstratiosfilis]

Wow! Thank you for so much information in so short a video. Your video puts everything in perspective.

[kamilgamaleldin]

Probably all of these reasons you mentioned combined, created the perfect storm that led to the collapse. You and I discussed the “past glory” syndrome before, which is a terrible shame.
Looking forward to your next vid Tareq!! 👍🏻👍🏻

Despite already knowing about Neil Degrasse Tyson's slander about Al-Ghazali, the clip still makes my blood boil. As always, good video brother.

If we look at the Ancient Greeks, it was their agricultural surplus that afforded them armies for security, leisure time for philosophy, and interaction with other peoples for resources in knowledge. The same reigned true for Rome and its vast powerful armies and conquests . America's prosperity financed science, technology, military, industry investments and banking. You need money to have time for intellectual growth and discovery, otherwise the labor of seeking a basic livelihood will consume the people's time and lives .

What a great channel you have! Very well produced and thought provoking!

Knowledge of these fruits of this golden age are essentially suppressed, certainly not often recognized by the west and I feel racism, both of religion & skin color. The Silk Road I would have loved to travel back in its prime! Thanks!
Yay my notifications actually work since i remembered to turn it on, giggle.

Posts like this do more to reduce barriers to commonality than a thousand lectures

[Era_Of_Awakening]

All the reasons did impact the Islamic golden Age.

but al Ghazali ??! xD
there is a lot misunderstanding about him, he was Genius and among top Philosophers all times.

[senuoyyounes]

Thank you Mr. El Kandari for this quality video and I would add that the golden age of Islam experienced a small revival with the Ottoman Empire, particularly under the reign of Souleman the Magnificent, but unfortunately the internal wars and especially the savage European colonization of Muslim Territories ended up sending us back to the Middle Ages. and I think that we must be proud of our past which has illuminated all of humanity and not be ashamed. especially since the German, British, French and Swedish are all proud of their Hitler, Queen Victoria, Napoleon and Vikings and other bloodthirsty false heroes. Thank you for your good work.

Never heard a better explanation for the end of golden age, than this.

[ahmedengineer]

Great as always 👍.... And may I add that when rulers realised that ruling ignorant, illiterate and superstitious people is much, much easier than well educated, innovative people ... And to this day our rulers prefer control over prosperity.
And I have to say, I no longer see a light at the end of this dark tunnel.

Mathematics, chemistry and astronomy had a lot to do with India, because from India Muslim world got the knowledge which it had translated and preserved in Baghdad and Spain. Later after the recon quest of Spain by the Christian world these basics of knowledge from India came to the Europeans from which their renaissance started….
