Hi. I wanted to say thank you and your teaching captured my attention. I am striving to learn about the Muslim thinkers and I admire your style and new way of teaching others.
I think it's strange that when reading old figures, people feel pressured to either agree with them one hundred percent on everything, or condemn them completely. Didn't having mixed feelings used to be normal?
As I mature and educate myself, I find myself having mixed feelings about many things, more nuanced. Using reason and remaining impartial so that I judge accurately.
According to Robert Irwin, King Pedro of Castile ("Pedro the Cruel") offered to restore to Ibn Khaldun his family's ancestral Andalusian estates on the condition that he'd convert to Christianity. He refused.
I don't know why, but people watch more despicable channeld and cookery channels than this treasure. You are a living treasure for people who love history and theology.
I’m grateful for every episode you present and particularly the attention you gave to the racist perspective of even this enlightened man with regard to African people. You are appreciated
@@africanhistory actually, if you've read any historical Materialism at all you'll find a parallel with how climates and temperatures affect ingenuity. Read Guns, Germs, an Steel.
I really appreciate how you refrained from comparing him to Machiavelli. Although the context of their careers led to similar preoccupations, there appear to have been essential differences in the conclusions they came to. I get the impression that Ibn Khaldun was much less personally ambitious and more exasperated with the human condition as he observed it. I do wonder how that exasperation may have come off to his peers in the political world, however. I would imagine they probably projected all of their own paranoias and suspicions onto an emotion they couldn't feel or identify due to their relative ignorance, but I would have to dig deeper into his work to confirm or refute that. Thanks for introducing me to this.
Great video!! If you want to know the music played in the first two mins of the video, it is called لما بدأ يتثنى beautiful piece of Arabic music written in Muslim Spain.
Fillip you’ve mentioned the Mongols in several videos as they intersect with various other historical pieces. I would hope you make a video about them and their religious ideas. As i understand it they had a unique interesting religion as well.

There should be 4 generations according to ibn Khaldun. The best way, of course, is to check it directly in his work, but I heard about them in the following interpretation: The 1st generation of rulers: Nomads come from the desert to a city, slaughter the city's elite and establish their dynasty. 2nd generation: Continues conquest, expands the empire. 3rd generation: Enjoys the greatness achieved by the previous generations and focuses on development and beautification - sponsors arts, sciences etc. 4th generation: Falls into the crisis of "nothing left to desire", drowns in luxury and decadence, and finally gets slaughtered by another tribe of nomads coming from the desert.
Thank you very much for thèse intetessting informations. Ik am Moroccan and bornes in Tangier, I had the great honor to visite his mausolee and his grave in the Casbah of Tangier ( Marocco) because Ibn Khaldoun was a Moraccan citizen ❤
I have been looking at resources about the life and work of Abu Hanifa, beyond popular stories (kissa). I'd really appreciate if you can do a video based on solid historical sources on him, his times, and his works. I think he is a key person in establishing reason at the foundations of Islamic development, in a time of a lot of conflicting movements. We probably need a similar figure strong both in religious principles and also reason, to again set a path.
With respect to Ibn e Khaldun’s reference as to the behaviour of Africans, there’s no doubt that it was racist and frankly demeaning. I would just like to point out that he was trying to disprove the popular jewish notion of the black race arising from the disobedient son of prophet Noah a.s called Ham. Going by his theory of human evolution in the muqaddimah, I think he was proposing a theory to explain the skin colour and the nature of Africans. This point of view in itself was revolutionary for that time as it went against the Torah’s teachings and it was also popular among Muslims of the time. The fact that he placed his intellect (Scientific zeal) above all is commendable for that period

Ibn Khaldun described Mogadishu as a large, prosperous, and powerful city. He noted that it was a key center of trade in the Indian Ocean, with merchants from various parts of the world, including Arabia, Persia, India, and China, visiting the city for commerce. 2. Wealth and Culture: The historian mentioned the wealth of the people of Mogadishu, which was evident in their lifestyle and the goods available in the markets. He observed that the city’s rulers and elites were influential and that the people were well-cultured, with a strong sense of community and governance. 3. Administration and Leadership: Ibn Khaldun also touched upon the city’s leadership, describing the ruler of Mogadishu as someone who commanded respect and had control over a large and prosperous domain. The city was well-organized, with a structured government that managed its affairs efficiently. 4. Language and People: He noted the distinctiveness of the Somali people, pointing out that the language spoken in Mogadishu was different from Arabic, which he found interesting. However, Arabic was also used, especially in trade and administration, given the city’s connections with the broader Islamic world.
In my humble opinion his one of the most important political subject essence *Assabiya* is and will remain relevant in all times of history especially in Eastern or Muslim world though it begs lot of time to shine light upon why today Muslims still stuck to ( consciously/unconsciously) as like Totalitarions/Dictators and what the West propagates or is thought to be presumed by whole globe i.e democracy. ( though leaving this for further debate , n 'm not gud at typing too) Second it was Assabiya I wanted to talk about in humbleness , third generation falls coz of they achieved like whatever excellence available at time so they turn towards settling in cities /arts (etc) leaving sword aside n here comes the fall when they relax, it's not their disconnection from subjects(tribes) but tribes/subjects are well immersed too in every luxury available accordingly to their status. That's y if another or some other tribe/king/dynasty comes,follows usually they won't go much far, as ppl will soon revert to royal heirs of first dynasty to have them again to continue again like their forefathers.This was Ummayads The Entrant Abdul Rehman Ad Dakhil who established Ummayads dynasty thousands of k ok kilometers away again in other continent Europe when his forefathers lost Damascus to Abbasids. North Africans choose him as their leaders being as remnant of Royal Ummayad. BTW it's excellent subject to understand Eastern /Muslims as they just inherited democracy from their being slave/colonial past,. Their forefathers actually never practiced/lived democracy but later generations( first/2nd/3rd etc which memory even faded with nxt generation that what actually they were (3rd generation of last dynasty which lost to West lived luxurious excelence period before being subject to West and their last time was just one man rule) however these 4th / 5th liberated generations got democracy which their forefathers were not used too ( but it (Asabiya/one man Rule) time n again flicker being part of their DNA
Just wanted to tell u that: ibn actually means “son of” in arabic when ever u say “Ibn” make sure u put his first name in because his father might have 3 or 4 sons
yes you're right but some historical figures are called simply like that, "Ibn sina" "Ibn khaldun" "ibn haitham", there's no need for him to put their first name.
Can you do research about Ibn Taymiyyah? Note: about that Black people from Nigeria: He simply was trying to refer people who live in hot climate to have a harsh fate, he was not actually trying to condemn them but the region they live in. Too hot and arid climates according to him (then for Montesquieu and finally Jared Diamond today) leads the people living there to be more loose in every sense while on the other hand harsher and colder climates can take men into shape above any kind of exercise. Because this descriptions he made, the quote "Geography is destiny" is mostly attributed to him. But there is I think more humourous places exist in his city management view like cutting down the trees and forests around the city so city can have a more refreshing air or how he thinks that there is nothing but water south sphere of the World because that part is all under water as if world was a soccer ball floating on a pile of water. Lastly his depiction of the sun as it shouldn't be something hot, because heath on earth only comes from reflected light on earth was very funny too.
Ronald Reagan once cited him as an inspiration for Reaganomics - apparently he said once that if you decrease the tax rate it will increase govt revenue over time because people will use their money to create more wealth. However other scholars state that this is a misunderstanding of what Ibn Khaldun said.
There was a study about psychopaths always ascending to positions of power. Im curious how many people would still want to rule if the law was that they're to be lynched after one term in office. I mean hypothetically, ofc. Plato thought that anyone who wanted to rule shouldn't be allowed to rule but why not make use of the above instead, I mean it's the perfect pruning mechanism for society. Heck, could even make the new one do it themselves, make a contest out of it so as to avoid the ethical ramifications of the state having right over one's life.
Man the content is well put together. But man, as a Tunisian and Arab speaker I have to say, the music is so cliché, why destroying such beautiful content with such a thing. keep up the good job
Another great presentation... it always saddens me, especially being a Muslim, the very low opinion many Arab Muslims have of Africans, throughout history and still in the present day. You have an historical explaination for this unfortunate attitude that clearly contradicts the message of the Qur'an?
Love your video - great content- the music is great but makes it very frustrating- difficult to follow if you are in any way neurodivergent. My brain is trying to register your words but the music for us plays at the same value as your voice and can’t be separated 😅 maybe turn it down ….. though I don’t believe you need it at all😊
Is Muqadimmah about Muqaddam to imagine information that is most basic - like alphabet of arab's knowledge? Or it's a theory of vocabulary to use about "the belief of simplest knowledge required to know about '(actually quraish's belief)'"?
Hey LTR! I’m searching for a video of yours that I watched a long time ago. I thought that it would be this one with Ibn khaldun but it doesn’t seem to be it. It was a book written by an Islamic explorer and philosopher that included information on medicine- I think with the dissection of a dear. I think it also mentioned a man who went to the wisest sage and found that he and the worshippers of the city were essentially getting at the same thing. Ugh!! What was the name of that philosopher, book, and video??!
I love your channel omg, I want to watch all your vids. I heard that Karl Marx’s concept of historical materialism was influenced by Ibn Khaldun’s writings. Is this true?
It may be also true in relation to their economical theories. Or, if not direct influence, then certainly continuity, something like ibn Khaldun ==> Adam Smith ==> Karl Marx.
i noticed that despite me being subscribed my autoplay never plays one of your videos after im done with one. Im pretty sure its that way with most channels so idk why you're the exception....? Awesome content nonetheless
Interesting to hear this analysis from a Marxist perspective. Ibn Khaldun's analysis reminds me of historical materialism & his idea of Asabiyyah sounds similar to the Marxist dialectical analysis of social class -- the revolution settling into class society (a clear divide between ruler & subject) which produces a dialectic in which the ruling class & the laboring class have divergent interests... ultimately leading to the resolution of the dialectic: a new revolution.
بسیار خوب بیان شد... سپاس Thank You for your presentation 👍 it was good to remind us about this great historian who tried hard to be close to the facts as much as possible...🌞🌞🌞
Nice video, but you *really* overplayed and exaggerated the Abbasids and especially Ibn Khaldun's relationship with it and its demise. First of all, Tunis itself was the seat of the Hafsid Caliphate. The Hafsid dynasty self-assumed the title of Caliph in the mid 1200s, and the Almohad dynasty did so in the mid 1100s. For Ibn Khaldun there was no "Caliph" executed, just the Abbasid monarch, and with which Ibn Khaldun had no connection in the first place because it was a whole world away in Southern Iraq whereas he was born a century later in the Maghreb and his family was from Andalusia where the Abbasids were never relevant. Second of all, the Abbasids were only Caliphs on paper during this time and had been for five centuries. The Abbasid Revolution was in 750, but by the 790s the regions of Khorasan and the Maghreb had seceded and become their own independent states ruled by Sunni Iranic, Amazigh (Berber) and Turkic dynasties (and in the 900s, Egypt itself became the so-called Fatimid Caliphate under the Isma'ili-Shia). Then in the 830s, the Abbasids themselves became puppets of the Twelver-Shia Buyid dynasty. In summary: Abbasid rule over the former Umayyad domain en masse (excluding Iberia) lasted a mere four decades. After the 830s, their standing among most Sunnis in general began to collapse. The Buyid-Abbasids then lost Egypt in the 900s, and lost much of Iran to the Sunni Samanids and Saffarids in the late 800s (there was also pockets of territory in Iran held by Zaydis and Isma'ilis). Then in the 900s the Sunni Ziyarids and Ghaznavids came into Iran, followed by the Seljuqs in the 1030s who then deposed the Buyids in 1055. During the Crusades up till the Mongol Ilkhanate's sack of Baghdad, the Abbasid domain was restricted to Southern Iraq and Southwest Iran (which they didn't even fully control because the Buyids were in charge). Ask yourself where was the Abbasids during the Crusades? They were twiddling their thumbs in Baghdad. It was Turkic, Iranic and Amazigh dynasties who fought the Crusaders. When Saladin imploded the Fatimid dynasty and founded the Ayyubid dynasty, he nominally recognized the Abbasid "Caliph" to formalize his independence from the Zengids and Seljuqs. In lieu of recognizing one or both of them as his superior (as he was originally a Zengid subject), he recognized the nominal Abbasid entity directly. Then in 1260, the Mamluq dynasty replaced the Ayyubid dynasty in Egypt and used the Abbassid "Caliph" as their puppet following the Ilkhanate invasion (as they were a "military dictatorship" by modern terms). Casuals see "Abbasid Caliphate (750 to 1258; Baghdad)" or "(750 to 1517; Baghdad and Cairo)" and assume they lasted 500 or 700 years and held large swathes of territory. When in reality the Abbassids only lasted as an independent entity for ~80 years (and ~40 years over the whole empire) and the rest as a nominal entity. But certainly in the Maghreb, Khorasan, Iberia, East Turkístan, Subsaharan Africa, South and Southeast Asia, the Abbassid "Caliph" held no importance, albeit the puppet/title was passed around like hot potato in West Asia.
*He is european white so whatever comes out of his mouth is pure revelation. He will ignore your comment of immense intellectual depth and critical evaluation.*
He was not really a man of his time he was a racist. Prior to him, long before him was Muhammad who Khaldun followed and he was clear on the issue of race. I think like everything we must accept both good and bad and not explain it away. It is what it is. What did enlightened David Hume say about Africa? clearly not englightened in all matters and deeply ignorant in some.

Ronald Reagan once cited him as an inspiration for Reaganomics - apparently he said once that if you decrease the tax rate it will increase govt revenue over time because people will use their money to create more wealth. However other scholars state that this is a misunderstanding of what Ibn Khaldun said.
why there’s none stop music when the history is important and the music is distraction
Thanks for this. This one is quite old and short. Can you do a new one on him and long and very detailed one?
Please could you give the references of the music that you use
It’s true honey to my ears !
There was a study about psychopaths always ascending to positions of power. Im curious how many people would still want to rule if the law was that they're to be lynched after one term in office. I mean hypothetically, ofc.
Plato thought that anyone who wanted to rule shouldn't be allowed to rule but why not make use of the above instead, I mean it's the perfect pruning mechanism for society. Heck, could even make the new one do it themselves, make a contest out of it so as to avoid the ethical ramifications of the state having right over one's life.
Man the content is well put together. But man, as a Tunisian and Arab speaker I have to say, the music is so cliché, why destroying such beautiful content with such a thing. keep up the good job
I disagree. The music works well with the video
Another great presentation... it always saddens me, especially being a Muslim, the very low opinion many Arab Muslims have of Africans, throughout history and still in the present day. You have an historical explaination for this unfortunate attitude that clearly contradicts the message of the Qur'an?
Even in the prophets time there was racism sadly
Thanks for your excellent work
I’m sorry but can I get the link to the intro music? I know it’s called Lamma Bada Yathana
damn the music is so nice XD
Respects from Uzbekistan)))))
Great work sir, may I know about his religious beliefs like I heard he was belong to the nizari ismaili Muslim...
Love your video - great content- the music is great but makes it very frustrating- difficult to follow if you are in any way neurodivergent. My brain is trying to register your words but the music for us plays at the same value as your voice and can’t be separated 😅 maybe turn it down ….. though I don’t believe you need it at all😊
Please I need someone to tell me where I can get this book "MUQADIMAH"
You’ve done a great job bro…
ua-cam.com/video/6lfFp4krWoE/v-deo.htmlsi=no6kJBCSVdXOOxcy worth exploring on the same topic
Muqaddimah talls about evolution theory way before Darwin... correct me if I am wrong, have come across muqaddimah before ..
Is Muqadimmah about Muqaddam to imagine information that is most basic - like alphabet of arab's knowledge? Or it's a theory of vocabulary to use about "the belief of simplest knowledge required to know about '(actually quraish's belief)'"?
But Persia's alphabet is the same. Does Indonesian spell in Jawi? If yes then it's 3 the same.
Hey LTR! I’m searching for a video of yours that I watched a long time ago. I thought that it would be this one with Ibn khaldun but it doesn’t seem to be it. It was a book written by an Islamic explorer and philosopher that included information on medicine- I think with the dissection of a dear. I think it also mentioned a man who went to the wisest sage and found that he and the worshippers of the city were essentially getting at the same thing. Ugh!! What was the name of that philosopher, book, and video??!
totally goosebumps his biography
I'd love to see some thing on Sheikh Badruddin of Simawna. JZK.
Can you do a video on the great writer and historian, Ibn Batuta?
I love your channel omg, I want to watch all your vids. I heard that Karl Marx’s concept of historical materialism was influenced by Ibn Khaldun’s writings. Is this true?
How can these two even be on the same pole!
It may be also true in relation to their economical theories. Or, if not direct influence, then certainly continuity, something like ibn Khaldun ==> Adam Smith ==> Karl Marx.
I must read the book sometime
I just bought this book & Mien keimf but I couldn't wait for it to arrive so I'm watching this As Salamu Alikum
What is the background music?
Lamma Bada yatathana
i noticed that despite me being subscribed my autoplay never plays one of your videos after im done with one. Im pretty sure its that way with most channels so idk why you're the exception....? Awesome content nonetheless
Interesting to hear this analysis from a Marxist perspective.
Ibn Khaldun's analysis reminds me of historical materialism & his idea of Asabiyyah sounds similar to the Marxist dialectical analysis of social class -- the revolution settling into class society (a clear divide between ruler & subject) which produces a dialectic in which the ruling class & the laboring class have divergent interests... ultimately leading to the resolution of the dialectic: a new revolution.
Can u do haroon of the Abbasid caliphate
Please make a video about al hallaj
Could you please avoid putting music in the background so that muslim can watch the video comfortably?
بسیار خوب بیان شد... سپاس
Thank You for your presentation 👍 it was good to remind us about this great historian who tried hard to be close to the facts as much as possible...🌞🌞🌞
Would you please make a video on Abu Hanifa sometime?
Please make videos on shah walliullah qutbuddin dehalvi from 1703-1763
Nice video, but you *really* overplayed and exaggerated the Abbasids and especially Ibn Khaldun's relationship with it and its demise. First of all, Tunis itself was the seat of the Hafsid Caliphate. The Hafsid dynasty self-assumed the title of Caliph in the mid 1200s, and the Almohad dynasty did so in the mid 1100s. For Ibn Khaldun there was no "Caliph" executed, just the Abbasid monarch, and with which Ibn Khaldun had no connection in the first place because it was a whole world away in Southern Iraq whereas he was born a century later in the Maghreb and his family was from Andalusia where the Abbasids were never relevant.
Second of all, the Abbasids were only Caliphs on paper during this time and had been for five centuries. The Abbasid Revolution was in 750, but by the 790s the regions of Khorasan and the Maghreb had seceded and become their own independent states ruled by Sunni Iranic, Amazigh (Berber) and Turkic dynasties (and in the 900s, Egypt itself became the so-called Fatimid Caliphate under the Isma'ili-Shia). Then in the 830s, the Abbasids themselves became puppets of the Twelver-Shia Buyid dynasty.
In summary: Abbasid rule over the former Umayyad domain en masse (excluding Iberia) lasted a mere four decades. After the 830s, their standing among most Sunnis in general began to collapse. The Buyid-Abbasids then lost Egypt in the 900s, and lost much of Iran to the Sunni Samanids and Saffarids in the late 800s (there was also pockets of territory in Iran held by Zaydis and Isma'ilis). Then in the 900s the Sunni Ziyarids and Ghaznavids came into Iran, followed by the Seljuqs in the 1030s who then deposed the Buyids in 1055.
During the Crusades up till the Mongol Ilkhanate's sack of Baghdad, the Abbasid domain was restricted to Southern Iraq and Southwest Iran (which they didn't even fully control because the Buyids were in charge). Ask yourself where was the Abbasids during the Crusades? They were twiddling their thumbs in Baghdad. It was Turkic, Iranic and Amazigh dynasties who fought the Crusaders. When Saladin imploded the Fatimid dynasty and founded the Ayyubid dynasty, he nominally recognized the Abbasid "Caliph" to formalize his independence from the Zengids and Seljuqs. In lieu of recognizing one or both of them as his superior (as he was originally a Zengid subject), he recognized the nominal Abbasid entity directly. Then in 1260, the Mamluq dynasty replaced the Ayyubid dynasty in Egypt and used the Abbassid "Caliph" as their puppet following the Ilkhanate invasion (as they were a "military dictatorship" by modern terms).
Casuals see "Abbasid Caliphate (750 to 1258; Baghdad)" or "(750 to 1517; Baghdad and Cairo)" and assume they lasted 500 or 700 years and held large swathes of territory. When in reality the Abbassids only lasted as an independent entity for ~80 years (and ~40 years over the whole empire) and the rest as a nominal entity. But certainly in the Maghreb, Khorasan, Iberia, East Turkístan, Subsaharan Africa, South and Southeast Asia, the Abbassid "Caliph" held no importance, albeit the puppet/title was passed around like hot potato in West Asia.

Thanks for all the knowledgeable info. I am just queries about you were you from, are you muslim
Can you tell me the word @14:29? asabiya mean?
for a fresh understanding of muqaddimah, explore ua-cam.com/video/vzoDZzxNdwE/v-deo.htmlsi=WJ9Zuem7LxaEhxyq @ciisr
Next, Imam Al Ghazali and Mulla Shadra, ♥️🙏🙏🙏
If anyone's wondering what the background music is it's Lama Bada Yatathana

He was not really a man of his time he was a racist. Prior to him, long before him was Muhammad who Khaldun followed and he was clear on the issue of race. I think like everything we must accept both good and bad and not explain it away. It is what it is. What did enlightened David Hume say about Africa? clearly not englightened in all matters and deeply ignorant in some.
there is also a channel named al-muqaddimah
that channel seems to also explain some of ibnu khaldun theory in a video titled how to rule in the islamic world
be great to see a vid on Shibli?
I like your presentation
Is this music is one of Asmahan's somgs'
Please make an episode about Al Niffarry
