Salām from Pakistan! May Allāh ﷻ‎ grant you success in this world as well as in the hereafter! ʾĀmīn!

Shared your video on a small server of friends. Universal interest in seeing more Islamic history in English. Its one of those topics (like Sub-Saharan African history) that is just criminally neglected online.

[little_laughs_family]

This channel should have much more views, it is very under rated. I wished I could have supported it more.

[mominandsara]

I think the accurate title would be history of muslims rather than Islam. Bcz islam wasn't exactly represented by all these dynasties. So the impact of Islam is different from the impact of Muslim dynasties.

[hazorg]

Keep doing what you're doing brother! This is one of the best history channels out there.

[faysal]

Amazing comprehensive video.. love this channel

[desertoasis]

A reminder to anyone watching this is not scholarly peer reviewed work. It's a youtube video.

Thank you for your good work as always. I know how hard it can be to make such a video, so I want to mention that this video does not cover North Africa, West Africa and East Africa.

It almost seems biased towards the east more, and I notice this a lot from Muslims with eastern roots. They sometimes don't even know the country Tunisia. Usually, the Andalus is glorified as Western Islam, which is very misleading as most events happened from North Africa.

This is also clear in the start when you mention the Shia (only 10% of Muslims) and the political conflict. Like you said that most people saw Hassan and Hussain as more legitimate, which is not true. Again, I think coming from an eastern bias as you have more shias.

I can not say I like the video, I think the title is very misleading.

[Bosnjak_Sandzaklija]

This video is a good reminder of key events, but it's definitely too fast-paced for anyone who's not already familiar with the history of Islamic civilization. At this speed, you really need to know the details beforehand to keep up. It would have been more effective with a slower pace and more in-depth explanations.

[unusualhistorian]

Excellent video as always! Wonderful seeing your channel grow!

[anigati_taruk]

This channel is too good and underrated

Excellent presentation considering you covered a huge span of time in a short video. Keep up the good work.

Alhamdullilah, thank you for sharing about Islam brother.

‘There will be Prophethood for as long as Allah wills it to be, then He will remove it when He wills, then there will be Khilafah on the Prophetic method and it will be for as long as Allah wills, then He will remove it when He wills, then there will be biting rule (ملكًا عاضًا) for as long as Allah Wills, then He will remove it when He wills, then there will be oppressive rule (ملكًا جبرية) for as long as Allah wills, then he will remove it when He wills, and then there will be Khilafah upon the Prophetic method.’

From the beginning the Turks were noted for their superior military qualities, which seem to have lain mainly in their use of mounted bowmen and the nomadic speed of their cavalry. From this time on the Caliphs relied to an increasing extent on Turkish troops and commanders, to the detriment of the older cultured peoples in Islam, the Arabs and the Persians. The progressive militarization of the regime increased their strength. By the eleventh century the Turks were entering the world of Islam, not only as individuals recruited by capture or purchase, but by the migration of whole tribes of free nomadic Turks still organized in their own traditional way.

Great job with such an enormous task. Lucid and clear. Not going please everyone with such work but I loved the listen. People who need every date and detail perfectly considered - perhaps search the library rather than YouTube! With love and respect - anything worth doing is doing right, granted. But I think our brother’s smashed it here.

Great Summary of Islamic Civilizations. Btw, there was a battle between the Muslims and Byzantines during the time of Muhammad. The battle of Mutah in 629 CE.

It might have been expected that these different ruling dynasties, Ghaznavid, Qarakhanid, and Seljuq, would have brought a new lingua-franca to the Middle East in the eleventh century. They did, after all, speak mutually intelligible forms of Turkic; and this was the beginning of what would turn into almost a millennium of Turkish rule, as witness the Arabic proverb cited by the North African analytic historian Ibn Khaldun of the fourteenth century:

dawlah 'ind al-turk, din 'ind al-'arab wa adab 'ind al-furs

Power (rests) with the Turk, religion with the Arab, and culture with the Persian.
