No it’s not, Shia’s are not Muslims… you insult the prophet companions and his wife which he loved dearly, you say she committed adultery even tho the Quran says otherwise. Second you people changed the 5 pillars of Islam by adding that stupid “twelvisim bull crap” which is not mentioned in the Quran.. all other 5 pillars are present in the Quran expect for that twelvisim whatever so I don’tk ow where you people got that from.Don’t you dare call Shia’s Muslims because they are not. They also smack themselves for some reason in the name of Hussein and Ali even tho no where in the Quran does it say to do that. You pray in the name of Ali which is Shirk and that’s a major sin, you are not allowed to pray to the prophet/s let alone the companion of the Prophet.
Does Shia Islam respect all religions? Does Shia Islam not treat people of other faiths inferior and sinful? If the answer to either question is no, then please don’t use the words universal, tolerance, peace, love and humanity to describe that religion.
@@patmclaughlin107its funny cause shia sect is more tolerable they don't call sunni kafir even though in many aspects sunnis are against their ideology while we see sunni more radical and intolerable over others idea infact they would killed person rather than listening other person reasons i know safvid and fatmid killed millions of sunnis but don't forget ottoman and even before that ayubid and other sunni sultan had killed much more shia peoples as matter of fact ottoman sultan even give fatwa of killing shia to be give more blessing than kafirs head in name religion
@@sameerplays7 that is a belief not as much evident as you giving importance to it. Anyways, I was curious about the origin of pride in the @aloneking5424's statement.
Amazing video but little correction: after fatimid moving to Egypt "zirid state" started in Algeria 🇩🇿 and their first capital was "achir" in the middle of Algeria "currently named "El mèdèa city" After that they moved to Kairouan Tunisia 🇹🇳 The Kutamas, or Ketamas, are a Berber tribe originally from present-day Nord-Constantinois and Small Kabylie, in east of Algeria. They are historically attested from the beginning of the second century, in the form Koιδαµoυσoι by the Greek geographer Ptolemy
Zirids are not algerian theyre Originally from sijilmassa eastern part of Morocco and kutamas are not Berbers from algeria theyre arabs orignated from the arabian peninsula like ibn khaldun said it in his book
The pic you have shared of Abu Muslim al Khurasani is actually the portrait of shah Ashraf Hotaki of the Hotaki dynasty of Afghanistan (defeated the Safavid empire in battle of Gulnabad which consequently proved the end of the Safavid empire)

As an Ismaili I really enjoyed the lengthy video full of excitement for me. I had read a number of history books pertaining to the Fatimid Caliphate and am very happy to listen to what I read with additional knowledge that covered in the video beyond my study.

Brother, I never thought I would say this about a Muslim commentator, but I really enjoy listening to you, mainly because you never use Takiya and you are an excellent teacher. Thank you
One of the reasons the Fatimids were able to create a Caliphate, is because they did not have the divisive ideology that modern day Shia indulge in today. They did not curse the Disciples or the wives of the Prophet Muhmmad (saw).
Can ANYONE think of a singular bone of contention that has split peoples *more* than the question of a legitimate *succession?* It's absolutely the classic cause of power struggles among peoples who in theory should be united. Whether it's a family with a modest estate, a kingdom or empire at stake, succession questions get blood spilled.
@@HikmaHistory Keep making these, by the way. This subject is difficult to cover, b/c Islam remains a controversial, major player in our modern life. We're at once impressed and afraid. So much money and power at stake. Can't ignore them. There is an old saying. "If you can't beat them, join them" . . . so fatalistic. *Same answer.* It's the reason Islam split into two major divisions. Shi'i versus Sunni. Even so, further schisms happen with regional matters between old clans, tribes, etc. Because ultimately, some guy wants more power than he already has and wants to secure the power he already has. The best way to secure power? Eliminate anyone else who just might want your spot - a brother, a cousin, a best friend . . .
@@HikmaHistory religion doesn't really split people to the point of violence there are always political factors for war. There is only 1 war I can think of that was started cause of religion but even then it was more about preserving state power more than religion
As an Ismaili I didn't had this much knowledge about Fatimids., Thank you for the info. Also a question, Did you took this history from Farhad Daftary?
Very helpful account of Northern Africa and the Near East. The rise of the Fatimids with their Berber Army and their expansion eastward is interesting. The Abbasid Empire was declining and it is highly questionable whether the Fatimids were able to really control North Africa, Sicily, Near East (Holy Land, Lebanon, & Western Syria). If what was presented was accurate then this region was clearly unstable at that time. With Abbasid authority falling, questionable control by the Fatimids, and the presence of nomadic Turks (Got Turks and Seljuks) this entire region was unstable. A bunch of wondering European Christians were able to trek across Europe and Asia Minor, then conquer Western Syrian, Lebanon, and Israel. This just shows how fragmented, chaotic, weak the region was between 900-1180. A group of ragtag Europeans can carve out a Christian Kingdom among bickering Islamic states. Sounds a lot like today.
You guys literally declared sharia to be a "burden" when it's literally the rule permitted to mankind by Allah SWT. You also believe in praying to a human being.

@@ok00001 The hotakis did what the ottomans couldn't, although the safavids were much weaker then. I've read that the sunni hotakis even called the ottomans to help them, but funnily they declined to intervene. There was a possible chance to bring Persia back to Islam
@@ok00001 I pray that this happens but the hatred inside the shia against Sunna is probably too huge. The country with the greatest Ulema, scientist poets went offline after Sah Ismail
The Rashidun Khalif are 4 even for sunnis not 3. The Shi’a follows the Sunnah a Prophet Muhammad too from the family of Prophet and the Sunnis from the Sahaba so the both follows the Sunnah but from different branches.
Excellent video This dynasty was never seen as legitimate by mainstream Islam ☪️. They were never able to defend Sicily , Crete or Cyprus. They made more trouble for Islam ☪️ by destroying Christian ✝️ Church in Jerusalem. They destroyed great cities in Tunisia. When they disappeared, nobody in Egypt mourned them.
How come people call a caliphate when the Abbasids were in power? It’s not allowed to have two caliphates, is it because they were Shia and people thought that you could have a Sunni caliph and a Shia caliph?
@@ottovonbismarck1632 its algerian bcs fatimid caliphate origins from kutama berber a city in algeria called setif idk why Tunisian try so hard to prove that it belongs to them but yeah whatever
Did you even watch the video you fkn imbecile?? 🤦🏾♂️ converting freed you from jizya tax but even if you converted, you still had to pay muslim tax (zakaat). In some cases, the sultan exempted poor non Muslims from jizya or lowered it. In terms of religious freedom, it is clearly recorded in that period of history, that ppl were allowed to practice their religion peacefully. your a peanut brain islamaphobe. byzantines we’re much worse than Muslims at that time. 🤌🏾
Are Hashasin, Ismaelites, Nuseyri Alawi, all related and are the Druz also related since they all believe in imam Ali? Am i mixing the religeons up? Isn't the knowledge of imam Ali supposed to be an secret? Given from father to son?
I AM ISMAILI HASHASHINS FATIMIDS QARMATIANS ALL OF THEM WERE ISMAILI NUSEYRI ALAWI HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH US DRUZE ARE SAPARATED AND WE DONT RECOGNIZE THEM AS OUR ISMAILI BROTHER
He's lying in this video, the Sunnah is just as important to the Shia the only difference is that the Shia take the Sunnah from the Ahle Bayt opposed to randoms and referring to the Khulefa as "Rashidun" doesn't make them so because if they were rightly guided they wouldn't have repeatedly ran away from multiple battles after Uhud, they wouldn't have missed the Prophet's SAWW funeral, they wouldn't have threatened the Prophet's SAWW daughter and they wouldn't have taken her rights away from her.
I can't speak to whether they were "rightly guided" by some higher power, but they certainly were guided rightly as leaders in this world. More likely by good advisors. The islamic world is as big as it is today because of the military victories and competant administration of the rashidun caliphs. You ought to at least respect that even if you religiously disagree with them
@@victorconway444 it is because of them Karbala took place, if you had any idea of the status of the Ahle Bayt you would realise all these conquests and spreading of Islam means nothing if you harm Nabi's SAWW family.
@@victorconway444 we shall see in the Akhirah how Allah and his Nabi SAWW will see this in comparison to the injustice they committed against the Ahle Bayt.
Because your beloved Muawiya also used to do to Hazrat Ali. Besides your second caliph burned Fatima's house. Bilal ibn Rabah, Miqdad, Ammar Yasir, Salman Farsi etc rejected the the first 3 usurper's caliphate. These were the first shias. Bilal was banished by the first because he rejected the first caliph. We don't curse everyone except few or we stay neutral in this matter meaning we neither accept the first 3 or go against the first 3.
Don’t worry about those trash bags they will hopefully end ip in hell where they belong for cursing the prophet companions and his beloved wife Aisha which they claim that she committed Zina even tho the Quran says otherwise
@@HikmaHistory You don't need to guess. You already know. This comment is a response to haters in this comment section. Otherwise I have many muslim friends. Besides my people have died a lot in the past than sunni's.
@@al_Hasaan He didn't by heart and often times complained and was sad when he talked to his loyal followers about this issue. He was forced espacially after the second caliph burned Fatmia's house. Yet Prophet P.B.U.H told Ali prophecized not to fight the first 3 because it will destroy Islam completely in the form of civil wars. He already warned that these first 3 will steal his throne and told him to be patient. So Ali followed Prophet's advice. Many companions of Ali did not accept the first 3 caliphs rule such as Salman Farsi, Bilal ibn Rabah, Ammar Yasir, Miqdad etc. These were one of the first Shias who rejected usurpers. So according to some Sunni's if Shias are Kafir's then these Sahaba's are also Kafir's. Right? The word "shia" became dominant after Karbala event otherwise there are no sects in Islam. These labels are used to identify one's beliefs. Our sect doesn't produce Islamists as compared to the Sunni one's who are damaging the reputation of Islam because have a hierarchy structure regarding Fiqh etc

@@HikmaHistory that's true but if they were they would most definately have the biggest claim to the caliph also because the role of caliph had become dynastical since the Ummayads and the Abbasids but still they weren't accepted as rightful caliphs by literally everyone except for the Ismaelis.
@@zxera9702 I imagine they had blood ties to Ali Ibn Abi Talib (R) and therefore used that to claim they were descendants of Fatima (R). But, I have bias against them so take my knowledge with a grain of salt.

@@ok00001 The hotakis did what the ottomans couldn't, although the safavids were much weaker then. I've read that the sunni hotakis even called the ottomans to help them, but funnily they declined to intervene. There was a possible chance to bring Persia back to Islam
@@ok00001 I pray that this happens but the hatred inside the shia against Sunna is probably too huge. The country with the greatest Ulema, scientist poets went offline after Sah Ismail

Welcome!
There’s only al Muizz and al Hakim as greatest of the Fatimid Caliphate
Abbasids and Syria were problems that just wouldn’t go away
I love your work. However, I know that you know that the crescent moon on mosque minarets wasn't a thing in the Fatimid era.
Could you please identify where you got the information about abdul rahman Ilyas being the true successor of al hakim?

Most ascensions as minors being a key flaw in inheriting leadership for the affairs of politics and theology. Meritocracy is the superior method.
The Rashidun Khalif are 4 even for sunnis not 3. The Shi’a follows the Sunnah a Prophet Muhammad too from the family of Prophet and the Sunnis from the Sahaba so the both follows the Sunnah but from different branches.
Basically in Islam we do not recognize any factions....There is only one Muslim Ummah 🙏
where are you from
Excellent video
This dynasty was never seen as legitimate by mainstream Islam ☪️.
They were never able to defend Sicily , Crete or Cyprus.
They made more trouble for Islam ☪️ by destroying Christian ✝️ Church in Jerusalem.
They destroyed great cities in Tunisia.
When they disappeared, nobody in Egypt mourned them.
How come people call a caliphate when the Abbasids were in power? It’s not allowed to have two caliphates, is it because they were Shia and people thought that you could have a Sunni caliph and a Shia caliph?
I am a sunni but i think Fatimid khilafat was much better than ummayad & Abbasid khilafat (butchers).
Which country the fatimid dynasty originated from? Algeria or Tunisia?
They popped in modern-day Tunisia but their roots are Middle Eastern.
@@HikmaHistory I've seen Algerians claiming the fatimid caliphate because the founders were born there
@@ottovonbismarck1632 its algerian bcs fatimid caliphate origins from kutama berber a city in algeria called setif idk why Tunisian try so hard to prove that it belongs to them but yeah whatever
@@HikmaHistory They were Berbers a.k.a Moroccan's today according to various sources.

I do not believe religious tolerance and tolerance towards the converted is synonymous
Did you even watch the video you fkn imbecile?? 🤦🏾♂️ converting freed you from jizya tax but even if you converted, you still had to pay muslim tax (zakaat). In some cases, the sultan exempted poor non Muslims from jizya or lowered it. In terms of religious freedom, it is clearly recorded in that period of history, that ppl were allowed to practice their religion peacefully. your a peanut brain islamaphobe. byzantines we’re much worse than Muslims at that time. 🤌🏾
@Remz haha quite rite ol' boy ! Beginning to understand the nature of this tolerance !
Yeah you completely missed the real foundation of the Fatimids.
Are Hashasin, Ismaelites, Nuseyri Alawi, all related and are the Druz also related since they all believe in imam Ali? Am i mixing the religeons up? Isn't the knowledge of imam Ali supposed to be an secret? Given from father to son?
I AM ISMAILI
HASHASHINS
FATIMIDS
QARMATIANS
ALL OF THEM WERE ISMAILI
NUSEYRI ALAWI HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH US
DRUZE ARE SAPARATED AND WE DONT RECOGNIZE THEM AS OUR ISMAILI BROTHER
i grew up with Iraqis who thought sunni meant tooth
Bazaar then bizarre...

Nein, oh nein!
Who said Fatimid were the only one? How about Marashian in Iran?

He's lying in this video, the Sunnah is just as important to the Shia the only difference is that the Shia take the Sunnah from the Ahle Bayt opposed to randoms and referring to the Khulefa as "Rashidun" doesn't make them so because if they were rightly guided they wouldn't have repeatedly ran away from multiple battles after Uhud, they wouldn't have missed the Prophet's SAWW funeral, they wouldn't have threatened the Prophet's SAWW daughter and they wouldn't have taken her rights away from her.
I can't speak to whether they were "rightly guided" by some higher power, but they certainly were guided rightly as leaders in this world. More likely by good advisors. The islamic world is as big as it is today because of the military victories and competant administration of the rashidun caliphs. You ought to at least respect that even if you religiously disagree with them
@@victorconway444 it is because of them Karbala took place, if you had any idea of the status of the Ahle Bayt you would realise all these conquests and spreading of Islam means nothing if you harm Nabi's SAWW family.
@@Anony_mous5001 It meant something to the rest of the world
@@victorconway444 we shall see in the Akhirah how Allah and his Nabi SAWW will see this in comparison to the injustice they committed against the Ahle Bayt.
I have questions to the shias, what did the sahaba did to you for you to curse them thousands time? Are you defying our prophet Muhammad pbuh?
Not all but few so called sahaba illegally wrested the caliphate from ahlulbayt.
Because your beloved Muawiya also used to do to Hazrat Ali. Besides your second caliph burned Fatima's house.
Bilal ibn Rabah, Miqdad, Ammar Yasir, Salman Farsi etc rejected the the first 3 usurper's caliphate. These were the first shias. Bilal was banished by the first because he rejected the first caliph. We don't curse everyone except few or we stay neutral in this matter meaning we neither accept the first 3 or go against the first 3.
Don’t worry about those trash bags they will hopefully end ip in hell where they belong for cursing the prophet companions and his beloved wife Aisha which they claim that she committed Zina even tho the Quran says otherwise
Only Ali (A.S) is the true Khalifa. The first 3 are imposters.
Can I take a wild guess and assume you’re Shi’a
@@HikmaHistory You don't need to guess. You already know. This comment is a response to haters in this comment section.
Otherwise I have many muslim friends.
Besides my people have died a lot in the past than sunni's.
how do you cope knowing that your Imam accepted the rule of first three caliphs, and served them
@@al_Hasaan He didn't by heart and often times complained and was sad when he talked to his loyal followers about this issue. He was forced espacially after the second caliph burned Fatmia's house. Yet Prophet P.B.U.H told Ali prophecized not to fight the first 3 because it will destroy Islam completely in the form of civil wars. He already warned that these first 3 will steal his throne and told him to be patient. So Ali followed Prophet's advice. Many companions of Ali did not accept the first 3 caliphs rule such as Salman Farsi, Bilal ibn Rabah, Ammar Yasir, Miqdad etc. These were one of the first Shias who rejected usurpers. So according to some Sunni's if Shias are Kafir's then these Sahaba's are also Kafir's. Right?
The word "shia" became dominant after Karbala event otherwise there are no sects in Islam. These labels are used to identify one's beliefs. Our sect doesn't produce Islamists as compared to the Sunni one's who are damaging the reputation of Islam because have a hierarchy structure regarding Fiqh etc
@@MustafaAli-lb8dqShia’s are not Muslims… you insult the prophet companions and his wife which he loved dearly, you say she committed adultery even tho the Quran says otherwise. Second you people changed the 5 pillars of Islam by adding that stupid “twelvisim bull crap” which is not mentioned in the Quran.. all other 5 pillars are present in the Quran expect for that twelvisim whatever so I don’tk ow where you people got that from.Don’t you dare call Shia’s Muslims because they are not. They also smack themselves for some reason in the name of Hussein and Ali even tho no where in the Quran does it say to do that. You pray in the name of Ali which is Shirk and that’s a major sin, you are not allowed to pray to the prophet/s let alone the companion of the Prophet.
Not really the most theologically accurate in the beginning. But then again, what else can we expect from a Sunni.
I do wonder if they were actual descendants of Fatima or not..
Interesting to think about. I think they probably were tbh, something as important as that would be a huge task to lie about.
@@HikmaHistory that's true but if they were they would most definately have the biggest claim to the caliph also because the role of caliph had become dynastical since the Ummayads and the Abbasids but still they weren't accepted as rightful caliphs by literally everyone except for the Ismaelis.
@@zxera9702 I imagine they had blood ties to Ali Ibn Abi Talib (R) and therefore used that to claim they were descendants of Fatima (R).
But, I have bias against them so take my knowledge with a grain of salt.
@@slimedogcrab what's wrong with you algerians ? The Fatimids used as mercenaries to fight their wars, nothing more than that
@@slimedogcrabyes they stared in kabylia which is in eastern Algeria, but eastern at the time was part of the Aghlabid Emirate and there by a part of Tunisia or Ifriqiya, you can take a look if you want to at the Fatimids in the Wikipedia in external links that the Fatimids were first the ruling house of Ifriqiya and then Egypt, not kabylia or central maghreb
