what respect ??? 🤣🤣🤣 you are a big joke like the islam !!! Nobody in the world gives a shit about the islam !!! it's the religion of the stupid people !!! they pray for God for nothing because even God don't love them !!!
All the names of religions other than Islam are created by culture, only the Quran names Islam as a religion, which means that other religions do not exist.
The Arab proverb, “Not being able to know something is no proof it doesn’t exist,” is a ridiculous piece of philosophy. By that logic you can claim absolutely anything. The burden of proof is on the person making the truth claim.

They were only allowed to show this once in the UK, because of massive protests from Muslims. So I can only recommend "In the Shadow of the Sword" by Tom Holland, that is the book he basically are "advertising" for here, to get the full story of what he gives the "headlines" for here. (I've read it probably 4-5 times!)
This video also has been refuted by scholars and historians as well. He seems to be more ignorant and close minded to bother to look further more research.
@@AFGsultanZLet me guess....rEfUtEd by highly biased Islamic lunatics that present some idiotic philosophical mumbo jumbo without ANY material historical evidence.... The Aisha story alone shows that Islam is just another stone age delusional cult....of course the prophet had to be an Arab lol😂 As stupid as the virgin born resurrection ascension white Jesus or the circus show gods of Hinduism. Alone this anthropomorphic and cultural stupidity of these abrahamic religions make them so stupid....can only shake my head in disgust.
Incredible! The supposed "religion of peace" censoring through threats and civil unrest any bad press or uncomfortable facts about the religion's history. Tsk tsk, muslims...
I can`t believe that Tom hasn`t mentioned Medina throughout this documentary, even though all of the Korans surahs are divided into the Meccan(surahs that were revealed anytime before the migration or the Hijra) and the Medinan suras, that are those supposed revelations that occurred after the migration to the city of that name. Mecca is(and was I suppose) barren, while Medina IS much greener, with fertile soil to grow fruits and vegetables.
Precisely, Tom Holland's idea is that if Islam was passed off as having appeared in Medina or in another place close to Jewish and Christian influences, that would make Islam less original and there would be nothing miraculous to convert to him. Presenting Islam as being born in the depths of the Sahara far from any religious influence would give more credit to this religion as being a divine revelation.
He came to this study with an attitude there's nothing he gone get. He doesn't even know the surahs are devided into two and goes ahead as far as Israel to place the context of the Quran SMH!
I think that it may have been Benjamin Franklin who said that religion in the hands of the good is a force for good, and in the hands of the evil it is a force for evil.
1:06:34 There is no doubt about the actual location of Mt. Sinai (God or not) and he is not even close. _For the record:_ Any decent researcher/scholar would have found out where all of the earliest mosques were aligned to. (There is no doubt about that either.)
Some believe mathematics, engineering, etc came from Islam. Many scientific, mathematical and engineering things had their beginnings in the Arab world before the rise of Islam in the 6th century; however, as Islam spread and began to change the hearts and minds of the people in the Arab world the people’s ability for discovery and innovation dropped off dramatically.
I'm an ex Muslim, let me make it easy to understand, they don't say that these sciences came from Islam, but there were Muslim scientists who made major discoveries. That one part of the story now the other one is, that People like Alkhawarizmi and Ibn Sina، they have been accused of blasphemy by Muslim imams because they favor mathematic and logical science rather than religious sciences.

Change of the qibla (Arabic: تحويل القبلة) is the event in which the qibla of Muslims (direction of performing some rituals) was redirected from al-Aqsa mosque, in Bayt al-Maqids (Jerusalem), to the Ka'ba (in Mecca). The event occurred in Rajab, 2/January, 624, after the revelation of al-Qibla Verse. According to the majority of historiographers, the change of qibla occurred in Masjid al-Qiblatayn in Medina in the middle of the noon prayer. One interesting point about the redirection of the qibla is how people turned in the middle of a congregational prayer to over 160 degrees.
According to Dan Gibson, the very first mosce with the Qibla Mekka was not until the seventwentyth. ALL Quiblas before were directed towards Petra. compare Jay Smith, ua-cam.com/video/ZZE_TXn3qxw/v-deo.html
then why all the mosques built directed to the north of Mecca? Why the description of Mohammed's location being in a valley of olive farmers surrounded by mountains?
You mistakenly forgot to mention that it was a deceiving man that made it all up and that none of it is true and that Islam is based COMPLETELY on lies and jealousy. The filth of man.
the question that has been repeated since the beginning is " how do we know it was like that?" this question applies to all religions and all old historical events; we are sure of nothing unless we look carefully where we need to

Hey.hey.hey.hey.hey.... I was told that Muhammad was given instructions to write the Koran by the Angel Gabriel, the messenger of God. I know Gabriel. He told Mary she was to give birth to Jesus. So unless the Koran had a different Gabriel, why wouldn't he tell Muhammad Jesus was the son of God?
Im a Christian. I will confess,Im not a practicing Christian. I sin. But,I believe in the Bible way,but moreso,how God and/Holy Ghost touches me in the things I do. Yet...my reason for chiming is is this... There was a time,not long ago,where all people of every religion,was welcome to visit the muslim nations. Then,with the great wealth of oil found in Egypt (during my lifetime) ,came the influx,or almost to a fact,an invasion of the West,and along with them,came vulgarity,pride,oppression of persons,ie.,lack of respect for those whose countries we swarmed in on,and still,more sinful ways. I was in the Marines and visited Turkey. It was amazing.Beautiful.The people were so kind and hospitable. So eager to offer their hospitality. Yet,at the port areas,where most American servicemen hung around,vulgarity and drunkenness abound . Sadly,the very poor who lived there,saw the chance to feed their families by accomodating the desires of the servicemen. I was stunned at the difference in the qualities of persons,between them and us . We acted like barbarians. After years of behavior like this,it affected those people. And this corruption of their ways,of their lives and lands continue to this day. Who we call terrorists,are people who,earlier,have asked us to leave. We jeered in their faces,and stayed.If someone entered your home,and acted like a drunken,vulgar fool,submitting your children to sinfulness on a daily basis,and refused to leave your home,wouldnt you,after a while,take measures to force the evil from your home? I love my country,the USA. BUT,I am also ashamed of it as well . Defending your home from evil,sinful invasion is NOT an act of terrorism,but an act of self preservation wholesomeness. We have NO business staying where we arent wanted. And they have every right to defend their lands and lifestyles from our vulgar invasion. Criticize me if you will,but Ive BEEN there,and I feel compassion for their struggle against our invasion into their homes.
Maybe he should look in some of the Ancient Chinese accounts and writings in their ancient history. The Chinese were trading in that area and even with the Romans through various tribal Merchants including Arabs and desert peoples etc from very Ancient times. The Chinese may have some interesting writings about these Arabs and early Islam peoples/religions/practices. Chinese were always guarding their border lands against invaders, they had many tribal vassal states as well so the Chinese were great historians and record keepers, they are sure to have accounts worth reviewing.
By the 8th century or earlier Chinese ceramics were exported to Egypt and Western Asia, and of course much silk was exported to the Roman and Byzantine empires. I don’t remember when the first reference to Islam occurs in Chinese sources, although members of the Sassanian royal family fled to China after their defeat by the Arabs. I The Battle of Talas in around 750 was when the Chinese and Arab armies first encountered each other. The Arabs won.

Emotionally driven and unbiased way of researching, if you have at least bothered yourself to look the prophet wasn’t at all a bedouin or nomad neither were most of his companions, but you needed that image to strengthen your argument and belittling the subject.

I grew up in Saudi Arabia, converted to Islam and have travelled extensively around the country. The fact that there are farms and a fertile valley just South of Mecca in Al Baha with waterfalls simply confuses me that you suggest the nearest “olive growing fertile valley” is a thousand miles North in the Jordan valley? If you travel to Mecca you will understand its pre Islamic importance as it connects the North and South with a deep cool water spring a significant source of water and resting place for travellers and Bedouin.

The story is hampered by the fact that Arabs of that day did not keep written records. That came only later. So of course there is not a paper trail, showing the circumstances of Islam's rise. But to then offer your opinion as definitive, that Islam arose from the Arab empire, is imposing your version on a story where there is no documentation, either way. It's historical malpractice, in other words. It's true that Mecca became the focus many years later. The niches in the very first mosques were pointed at Petra, according to another account. That gave birth to a theory that Mohammed was from there, being a trader, and Petra being a trading center. And Mecca has literally no archeology at all, which is strange, and difficult to reconcile with the Koran. But something united the Arabs before they could become an empire. This was no small thing - they were famous for inter-tribal wars. To this point, I haven't seen anything that would disprove the standard narrative - that it was the rise of this new religion, brought about by Mohammed. Only the lack of a paper trail, which you'd expect, given who the people were.
There is written evidence from that very era up to this day. There is no any other religion which has pure authentic and unadulterated records than Islam.
Mr. Tom Jelinek , your comment is logic, but Islam has nothing to do with Petra at all , it was on the way of the caravans. I think Jay smith came up with this one, that most of the mosques I mean the Qibla was directed towards south-east /west from the north of Arabia , we had no astronomers at that time too to have the Qibla direction towards Mecca 🕋 accurately, see nowadays mosques 🕌 for instance. Petra was nothing after the Roman conquest in the 1st century AD . It was inhabited by Arabs , the remnants of Thamud. By the way , Mecca still have many archeological sites , but unfortunately after conquest of Ibn Saud in 1925 , many of these sites were destroyed, some graves of the companions of prophet Muhammad se still there especially the great wife of prophet Muhammad PBUH who shared him the very first moments after he received the first revelation of Quran. My greetings.🌹
@ yaania rasheed , Arabs knew many names of a thing , they are “linguists by nature “ even before Islam, one of the Arab linguists named “Al’Asma’i” knew more than 50 names for the “Stone” 😁, I knew bedouins who still use different names of the stone, like , Mangula, Gla’aa, and still “in their mother Arab dialect” ,unbelievably, amazingly use metaphor . The way they point to things and the way they describe them, it’s like magic.
Even if there is a written trail, can you still believe everything that got to be written? I mean most of Roman history and life were written by those who could access education, or you can say the Elites. They never tell you what's like being the normies or even slaves. Maybe there were conquer that been exaggerated, like you'd find politics these days. Not every documents could prove the truth.

He also can explain how in Jupiter's name, Rome can let a center of resistance bloomed right in the center of Syam. BTW, the fertile crescent trumped canaan.
They have done archeological research into what grew in Mecca. It wasn’t much of anything as they found no evidence of trees as described in the Quran. What is obvious is that the original holy site was not in current day Mecca. You only have to look to the oldest Mosques to determine which direction they prayed and it was not toward current day Mecca. This does not mean Islam is false, it simply means that their holy sites have changed. Jerusalem was never a holy site for Muslims prior to their conquering of Jerusalem. Jerusalem is mentioned ZERO times in the Quran.

Tom Holland's documentary "Islam: The Untold Story" was heavily criticized by scholars and experts for its numerous inaccuracies and factual errors. One of the most significant inaccuracies was Holland's assertion that there was no archaeological evidence to support the traditional Islamic account of the life of Prophet Muhammad. Holland claimed that no physical evidence of Muhammad's existence or the early Islamic community had been found, and suggested that this was evidence that the traditional Islamic account of Muhammad's life was a later fabrication. However, this claim was widely refuted by scholars and experts. Islamic studies professor Jonathan Brown, for example, wrote in a review of the documentary that Holland's claim "reflects a rather bizarre ignorance of the field of early Islamic history and archaeology." Brown explained that while there is relatively little archaeological evidence from the early Islamic period, there is abundant written evidence from the time that supports the traditional Islamic account of Muhammad's life and the early Islamic community. Other experts also pointed out factual errors in Holland's documentary, such as his claim that the Kaaba in Mecca was originally a Christian shrine, and his suggestion that the early Islamic conquests were primarily motivated by economic gain rather than religious ideology. In response to the criticism, Holland issued a statement in which he acknowledged that some of his claims had been "unhelpfully phrased" and expressed regret for any offense caused. However, he maintained that the central thesis of his documentary remained valid. Overall, the controversy surrounding Holland's documentary highlights the importance of careful and rigorous scholarship when exploring complex historical topics like the origins and development of Islam.
This was an eye opener meaning that we generally have to dig for answers if we are expected to accept and believe in anything. I found this video to be good , objective. But there is still a long way to go in looking for answers and I pray that we as humans get at least some of those answers, personally I don’t judge which is right or wrong, only to be able to find peace for at least myself.

@@hamza-trabelsi You don't really do your point very much justice in criticizing the "4 Bedouins" considering the people who first administered and created the religion were in fact "simple people with no scholar knowledge". He was speaking to them to gain perspective on what the adherents to the faith actually believe; his thesis isn't underpinned wholly by what they have to say but to dismiss them as you have is to dismiss the views of average Muslims who aren't scholars but nonetheless practice the religion.
I agree with Praveen's review of Tom Holland's honest and relentless pursuit of historical facts, though it seemed more of a dramatic metanarrative - not a history of the origins of Islam, but a dramatization of one historian's seemingly heroic struggle to penetrate the mists of time. But this is not actually how history is conducted, is it? Anyone would want to start out with the best of what is already written. Why reinvent the wheel? Many if not most professional historians of Islam would direct you to The Venture of Islam: Conscience and History in a World Civilization Vol. 1-3 by Marshall G. S. Hodgson (1974, University of Chicago Press). Though Hodgson died before completing his project, even the first 3 volumes are magesterial in the quality of writing, comprehensiveness of source materials, objectivity AND respect, and sociological complexity.
Yeh, Having been in the hotel industry, I have had the fortune of working with many, many persons from many, many culture’s, countries and ethnicities. Retired now for ten years, I regularly golf with Asian golf partners from Taiwan, Korea and those that actually lived in China and owned a factory in China. I very much enjoy hearing about their experiences, opinions, cultures and families. In “79”, I had many Iranian young men work for me. They needed to work due to assets being frozen and not being able to get back to Iran. 45 years later, I know for a fact some of these men have raised families in the U.S. and are as “Americanizes” as can be. Although I recognize there are many Muslims in the U.S., they DO NOT want to over-assimilate or have there families, descendants effected by the American culture. My neighbor is one. He will not shake hands with someone such as I. I have encountered this many times interacting with persons of that culture. So- although in our country and our culture, their religion does not allow to integrate. This is segregation. Just saying. Definitely now a religion of love in my humble opinion.
Huh? In the US? I could see if it was Europe. The vast majority of Muslims in the US are thoroughly assimilated and will shake hands with anyone who respects them. Hell, they even celebrate the fourth. The only difference I know is that they may forego the hot dogs in favor of a burgher or a beef alternative.
The verse you’re thinking of is likely from Surah Al-Hajj, which is Surah 22, verse 46. The verse says: > "So have they not traveled through the earth and have hearts by which to reason and ears by which to hear? For indeed, it is not the eyes that are blinded, but blinded are the hearts which are within the breasts." (Quran 22:46) This verse emphasizes that spiritual blindness is not about physical sight but about the inner vision, the insight, or the understanding found in the heart.
It didn’t humble me at all. It made me angry at his arrogance and intellectual dishonesty - and rather worried about what attitudes like his lead to.

Ask yourself this question. Who would be the most powerful God. A God who want your sons to die for him in order to get to heaven or a God who sent his son To die for you so that you can live.
cant have a son.. thats a physical thing. God is metaphysical. So no I dont want anyone to die for my sins, every indiviual is accountent for their actions. What your saying is since (the europianized version of christianity) says jesus died on the cross for them, this enables peole to ignore their morales and dont fear sinning, cuz its already taken care of 2000 years ago. NO. Every man and woman is responsible for their actions and will be taken into account in this or the next life ;) And guess what, saying that he has a son, who then again has a father, who then again has a mother who then again has a ghost, is one of the greatest sins of God. bible says "thou shalt not have other gods than god"

So many comments about this being "poorly researched" and "missing so much history/information". Yet know one know what's missing, or where to find it.
@Game Of Web You mentioned a single place, mentioned in a single verse from the Quran. Yet gave no historical relevance to it. Which is what the person in the video was referring too. Your other references to historical accuracy didn't even show a connection with the Quran. Your mention of Hirayrah is somewhat strange to me, in all honesty. There are some Islamic scholars, who quote him as being a liar. Saying much of his work was stolen from others. Also, that he was a later convert, and spent little time with Muhammed. As well as criticism by Aisha and Umar. Many point out that Umar even with the physically assaulted him. What quailifications do you feel on needs to be labeled an "arab" historian, or a "muslim" historian? The video presenter does have a degree, and has written several non-fiction books on historical figures, and historic periods.
@Game Of Web What are you talking about? You actually only addressed one thing I said directly. Yet not enough to dismiss my point. In reference to Hirayrah. Your talking about a well in the desert, and a place being mentioned in the Bible, still doesn't show the passage you cited, having any historical reference to something that took place. Do I really need to get into your going on about lawyers being total nonsense, in regards to my asking you about historian qualifications?
It is narrated on the authority of Ibn 'Umar ('Abdullah b. 'Umar) that the Messenger of moon elah Al'lah (may peace be upon him) observed: Verily Islam started as something strange and it would again revert (to its old position) of being strange just as it started, and it would recede between the two mosques just as the serpent crawls back into its hole.
@Game Of Web Again, you are not addressing what I actually said. Apparently it's more important for you to make up your own "version" of what I said. Also, you are assuming that the person never talked to anyone that was "arab" or "Muslim", simply because you did not see it in the video? That's absurd on numerous levels. I have no idea what documentary you are referring to on the "life" of Jesus. But, I will say all the ones that I have seen, offer no factual evidence on a historical life of Jesus. Simply speculation based on religious texts. Which are nothing more than historical narratives. Your reference about someone mentioning some person, named Muhammed, who taught something, offers very little to support your argument. It's really no different than someone in the 1st century CE mentioning a person named Claudius, who was a store owner. Very common. Your counter arguments are too emotional. You aren't taking the time to put together a coherent comment, that actually support your stance, with anything substantial. All you have really offered is emotion based snippets, that do nothing to actually refute the video.
The conclusion is simplistic. The Prophet somewhat acquired a couple of texts from the Jewish religion and Christianity while traveling as a merchant around Syria, and took them all way back to somewhere in the Arabia desert. There he constructed the book by editing those texts. When he died many had converted but not sure where was the 'somewhere' so early mosques have diverse directions. Many years later some big warlords decided to be as cool as Roman emperors and felt like a cool religion was needed. The current holy city was designated as the original 'somewhere' and everyone in the following hundreds of years who doubted the decision was either killed or banished.
If simplistic, accurate. Your summary of what he says is brilliant and I mean that. It is what those skeptical of Islam fail to say in millions of words but which you've done in a few. Your comment is brilliant.
@karlwalters3763 it must have sounded pretty convincing for someone who doesn't know a thing about islam. Don't blame you . Because if you knew anything about islam you would know everything he said contradicts the history and every sentence can be disproven . A simple google search or youtube search will show you the evidence for all the stuff thats being said. And quran and hadith is available free online if you want to check any of the claims. Making up stories and calling them as facts and people who are convinced by them is the biggest joke i see in this world. Its amazing the stuff people comes up with without an atoms worth of facts and evidences.
The fist Christian scholar who wrote about Islam was John of Damascus, his book was Fountain of Knowledge (born 670 AC), who confirms Muhammad as the founder of Islam I don’t this film at the end could conclude anything It was more entertaining than a historical research
How come this documentary does not reveal the names of the “scholars” who provided their expert opinion? Was this deliberate so that their lives would not be at risk? Not knowing their credentials takes away some credibility to the whole documentary and all that they kept saying is “I don’t know”. I was expecting more substance honestly
I think the woman interviewed is one of the contributors. She died few years back. Her name is Patricia Crone. Fear of retribution is the main reason why. Subscribe to @pfanderfilms, CIRA international you will understand further

Sigma Geranimo I agree with you to a certain extent. Not all religions are belief systems. The ones that are belief systems, you cannot reason with the believers. Faith is not synonymous to belief in all religions. In some religions faith is synonymous with fact. With those members, you can reason.

That is only because people of low intelligence do not understand how birth control works, and actually there are more Hindu, and Buddhists, so how do you prove that Islam is the most told story. I would wager that Jahovah witnesses and Mormons along with Scientologists are giving them one hell of a run for their money.
TwistedSister/Haratiofales FYI Islam is right behind Christianity in population. It is predicted to exceed christianity in followers by the year 2050. This video is purposefully lying and misleading people.
For those interested in learning about the pagan roots of Islam, rituals that were adopted by Muhammad from pre-Islamic Arabia, I highly recommend watching the archaeology videos by Lloyd de Jongh. He has made several very interesting ones.
I think Holland wasting His time in the dessert. He missed out or may be forgot that there is Hadith book written by The disciple of Muhammad's companion. He quoted what His teacher (the companion who met Muhammad) told to Him. If I'm not mistaken it was 50 years after the death of Prophet so theory that says Hadith is fabricated 200 years after prophet is rubish
THIS IS THE TOO-OFTEN-UNTOLD STORY It’s hard to believe that after 1,400 years anything remains to be said about Muhammad, Islam’s texts, and Muslim history. First, Muhammad said he got the Qur'ān privately from an angel in a cave. When he nevertheless found that he was making only a small impact in Mecca, in 622 he left for Yathrib with some fellow emigrants-Islam’s Hijrah-changed Yathrib’s name to Medina, and embarked on a different route to influence: war, which has remained Islam’s way ever since (though Muslims are certainly on a peace offensive now, apart from their war in Africa’s Sahel). “The Apostle...struck whoever turned his back to (God) until he came to Islam, willingly or grudgingly” (Islam’s first caliph, Abu Bakr, quoted in al-Tabari's History of the Prophets and Kings”). Grudgingly, huh? An interviewer in 2011 asked Ahmad Abu Quddum “So we are commanded to fight in order to spread the religion of Allah?” “Yes,” he said, “this is Islam’s way of spreading.” In his new home, Muhammad drew up a Constitution of Medina that made him the town’s leading citizen. Meanwhile he fought a series of battles, offensive and defensive, including 627’s Battle of the Trench-a siege, really-after which he personally beheaded at least 600 men and a woman of Medina’s Jewish Banu Qurayza tribe for not supporting him. “The Messenger of Allah...slaughtered 700 people-that is our Prophet and our religion” (UA-cam’s Abu Muhammad Ar Rusi). While in Medina, Muhammad sat in judgment of a man who’d killed his children’s mother for having slandered Muhammad, who found the man not guilty: “Oh be witness, no retaliation is payable for her blood” (Abu Dawud 5:4361, a canonical hadith). In early 630, Muhammad triumphantly returned to Mecca at the head of an army. He died there in June 632. So what do Islam’s texts say? They are extensive, but include Qur'ān 2:2, which discourages THINKING about the Qur'ān: “This is the Book about which there is no doubt.” Qur'ān 2:285 makes the point clearer still: “We hear and we obey.” And Qur'ān 5:101-02 adds “Do not put questions about things which if declared to you may trouble you....A people before you...became disbelievers on account of them.” So what is Muslims’ mandate? Qur'ān 2:251 says “And if it were not for Allah checking [some] people by means of others, the earth would have been corrupted....” (The brackets are in the translation.) Qur'ān 2:216 has Muhammad saying “Fighting is enjoined on you.” And Bukhari 4:52:311 has him saying “When you are called by the Muslim ruler for jihād fighting, you should go forth immediately.” And Muslims’ defense of Islam is to be brutal. Qur'ān 5:33 says “The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His messenger and strive to make mischief in the land is only this, that they should be murdered or crucified or their hands and their feet should be cut off on opposite sides.” Qur'ān 8:67 says “It is not for a prophet to have captives [of war] until he inflicts a massacre [upon Allah's enemies] in the land” (brackets of which are in the translation), which makes of Muhammad a brutal man of war. Indeed, Qur'ān 9:3 says “Allah and His Apostle are free from liability to the idolaters.” Quickly then, Qur'ān 9:5 says “When the sacred months have passed away, then slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them captives and besiege them and lie in wait for them in every ambush,” a clear exhortation to premeditated murder. Finally, in 712, eighty years after Muhammad’s death, al-Hajjaj bin Yousef cited Qur'ān 47:4’s “O True believers, when you encounter the unbelievers, strike off their heads” to justify a slaughter of thousands in Brahmanabad, far up the Indus River valley. But does that typify Muslim history? Muslims invaded India, not the reverse; Persia, not the reverse; the Byzantine Empire (including Syria and Egypt), not the reverse; Africa’s Maghreb, not the reverse; Europe, not the reverse; and fought the Chinese on the Talas River, far from Arabia. “The Mohammedan Conquest of India is probably the bloodiest story in history,” wrote Will Durant (1885-1981). And in 636-37, Muslims besieged and took Jerusalem, to which they had no claim aside from arrogance. Moreover, to this very hour, no one has ever invaded Arabia’s Hejaz, which embraces both Mecca and Medina. Have Muslim jihādis misunderstood Islam? Ibn Khaldun (1332-1406), a Muslim sociologist admired in the West, once summarized Muslims’ obligations this way: “In the Muslim community, the holy war is a duty because of...[the obligation to] convert everyone to Islam either by persuasion or by force....The other groups did not have a universal mission, so the holy war was not a religious duty to them....All of them are unbelief. This is clearly stated in the noble Qur'an. [To] discuss or argue those things with them is not up to us. It is [for them to choose among] conversion to Islam, payment of the poll tax [jizya], or death.” Abul A'la Maududi (1903-1979) wrote "The goal of Islam is to rule the entire world and submit all of mankind to the faith of Islam. Any nation or power in this world that tries to get in the way of that goal, Islam will fight and destroy....The believers [are] under an obligation to do their utmost to dislodge them from political power and make them live in subservience to the Islamic way of life." And in 2015, Abu Bakar Bashir said “If the West wants to have peace, then they must accept Islamic rule.” That, then, is what the world is up against and what much of the world is loath to face. It’s also what humanity MUST face if it’s to survive. “Avoid novelties, for every novelty is an innovation, and every innovation is an error” (Muhammad, quoted at Abu Dawud 3:4590).
Mohammed was just another “Joesph Smith” who was discontented with the religions of his day, so he borrowed from several religions and made up the rest claiming “private revelation”. It gained for him a lot of power- which further bolstered his pride and insanity.
@@michaelbattenfield4100Perhaps Mohammed was role model for Joseph Smith. Mohammed was a shepherd, merchant, prophet, rebel, war lord and theocratic despot. Mohammed had plenty of wifes, but he had no living sons. The death of the prophet and the betrayal of her trusted men are also silent history. Fatima's children and Ali were brutally silenced.

Islam is everywhere, the second largest religion in the u.s. and world. The first black slaves in the U.S were Muslim. Figures like malcolm x and Muhammad Ali among other currently famous people have been muslim also. Islam would likely be happy to not proselytize as it seems to be forbidden or frowned upon but the west keeps finding reasons to go there. If it's not a slave trade it's a war.
I watched a documentary and read some on the original holy place. They found all the ancient mosques and where they were oriented to. Everything lined up with the "Bekaa" valley. It was explained that there was a great battle and the victors moved the holy place to "Mecca". Something to think about.
Also there is a hadeeth that Mohamed’s mother when give birth to him her VAGINA produce light which went up to Syria and Lebanon, why exactly this area ??
No need to predict nothing.. it’s true that there is mo any archaeological evidence thar proves the history of islam at its birth... The Islamic history was written more that a 100 years after Mohammed was died 🤷🏻
IDK / The battles you’ve mentioned were documented because they were true events. And NO.. no history of islam was written and compiled in1-2 decade. First historian collected the oral stories and formed a biography of Mohammed was Ibn Ishaq a century after Mohammed’s death. But the original copy of that biography disappeared after a man called Ibn Hisham editted it and wrote a new one a century after ibn Ishaq.
IDK / To answer your question about Abu Baker i need a time machine to go back to that time.. because no history was wetting.. the history of the Islam you know and everyone knows about was written 2 centuries after its birth 🤷🏻
IDK / As for those battles they were international events.. they had big impacts in area.. that’s why everyone knows about them.. but they don’t prove anything about islam.. they were battles between the arabs and Persians and Romans.. because their details aren’t profound facts neither.
IDK / Brother.. I’m telling history about the first biography of Islam by ibn Ishaq and later Ibn Hisham and you are telling a sort of bloodline story? 🤷🏻

Mr. Holland seems to pull his punches more in this film than in his book, although that is not to say that his book takes gratuitous shots at Islam. The boot draws several clear lines to suggest the transmission of Jewish and heretical Christian ideas into Arabia. This file, I think, comes after his book so it's not clear if his thinking has changed or if it's a simple matter that the risks in expressing ideas have changed.
Judging from the fact this documentary was only broadcast once before protests took it off air, it seems reasonable to conclude he had softened it for public reception.
Dude, do you take Mescaline? The documentary is a bit tedious at points, and it sounds as if you enjoyed his book to a degree. Perhaps English is not your first language - and I say that in a friendly way. Because "his book," is not the only thing transmitting "Jewish and" (heretical?) "ideas into Arabia." EVERY source, including the Koran itself does so. Muslim belief in part is that God revealed himself to Jewish/Christian prophets.
I think this video has a lot to offer that is good. It gives substantial documentation where it exists and the whole show says to me think on this information. Thank you 🌷🙋♀️.
I'm sure that Mr. Holland's trip to the Middle East for this Documentary didn't include all of the trips to various sites in order too authenticate the relationship to him being a prophet called by God as it is written in the Quran, again as God instructed to be done. May I ask when was the Quran written? And from what text was it taken from that Muhammad knew about Adam, Eve, Abrams, and his sons including his nephew Lot in Sodom/Goliath. Was that taken from the history found in the cave that Mr. Holland visited that showed the cross in that cave?? However, too enlighten the person who wrote that Tom Holland majored in English, doesn't mean he is not a Historian. My B.A., is in Social Work, but my major was Law!! Like law you have to research the facts if their out there, if you want to verify the truth about something or someone. Historians have been interested in this as well as the public forever or it wouldn't be called History without documented facts like DNA!! Another question I read about after listening to another Documentary that included his marriage to a 6yr., but didn't have sex with her until age 9 Aisha, and the story I just read in the comments about how this mother an brother beat his sister, when she didn't comply with them for whatever reason. What sin had she commited? Has the Islamic community read the book of REVELATION from front to back so they have a good take on what the day of judgment is all about?? I'm just curious.......
His video is like his books: too long, too wordy. Having said that, his books are must-read if you have any interest in ancient history. Absolutely eye-openers.

Excellent and honest documentary. The narrator asked the same questions I have had about the origins of Islam. You make me want to understand more about WHO exactly were living in Palestine between 100-600 A.D., and how exactly they just let this new Arab army walk in, take over, and build Al-Aqsa on Mount Moriah. Lots of new ideas to think about. Thank you very much.
Although Islam has a theological element, it is essentially a political ideology. It prescribes how society must be structured and is an existential threat to liberal democratic enlightenment. If it were merely concerned with personal worship and personal ethical behaviour, it wouldn't be a problem. But it comes with a set of laws for the governance of the whole of society. Over the next hundred years, Islam should become a powerful political force in Europe and perhaps consigning liberal democratic enlightenment to the ashes of history.
So after watching this. I take it that they made the Muslim regilion up as they lived. Didn't matter if it was truth or lies as long as they had something to believe in. Sounds piss poor to me
Yup that's what I took from this as well. The fact that a book written 900 years after Christ, yet somehow puts itself directly in the time of Abraham and later Christ seems very shady. Look at all the scrolls being discovered talking about the Bible and Jesus yet Arabs never bothered to mention the so called prophet.
He lies ( in the documentary) en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seeing_Islam_as_Others_Saw_It en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teaching_of_Jacob en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sebeos en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_the_Presbyter
"...they made the Muslim regilion(sic) up...". Oh, you mean like Christians, Jews, Hindus, etc. did? All religions are made up by humans. Yours too, if you have one.
Christianity and Islam are just two piles of the same shit. One pile went West,one pile went east. Neither one's better or worse .Neither has anything to do with truth or true spirituality. We'd all be better off without either.Fuck 'em BOTH!!! If that pisses someone off, Good.
I laughed when he said why any arab would walk pass the remains of the city of Lot. I mean there was no Jordan at the time. The entire Middle east was a free reign. People WALKED long distances if that actually made sense to you 😂😂😂
Interesting research. Most people that are religious believe not because something is proven but because they feel it or have an inner conviction to follow it. Once you receive the gift of faith life takes on new meaning and somehow makes sense of life...in my experience.

I can`t believe that Tom hasn`t mentioned Medina throughout this documentary, even though all of the Korans surahs are divided into the Meccan(surahs that were revealed anytime before the migration or the Hijra) and the Medinan suras, that are those supposed revelations that occurred after the migration to the city of that name. Mecca is(and was I suppose) barren, while Medina IS much greener, with fertile soil to grow fruits and vegetables.
Exactly.
Precisely, Tom Holland's idea is that if Islam was passed off as having appeared in Medina or in another place close to Jewish and Christian influences, that would make Islam less original and there would be nothing miraculous to convert to him. Presenting Islam as being born in the depths of the Sahara far from any religious influence would give more credit to this religion as being a divine revelation.

Many scientific, mathematical and engineering things had their beginnings in the Arab world before the rise of Islam in the 6th century; however, as Islam spread and began to change the hearts and minds of the people in the Arab world the people’s ability for discovery and innovation dropped off dramatically.
That's not historical either.
You can tell by the number of muslim nobel laureates
I'm an ex Muslim, let me make it easy to understand, they don't say that these sciences came from Islam, but there were Muslim scientists who made major discoveries.
That one part of the story now the other one is, that People like Alkhawarizmi and Ibn Sina، they have been accused of blasphemy by Muslim imams because they favor mathematic and logical science rather than religious sciences.
There are far older texts of maths and medicines with Hindu civilisation which survived the multiple conquest of various marauders

"For the first 100 years after the founding of "Islam", none of the Mosques "Qibla" faced towards "Mecca", for the first 120 years of Islamic history, none of the surrounding Nations knew about the existence of "Mecca", the word "Mecca" appears only once in the Quran, the most revered site was referred to as "Mashjd al Haram", "forbidden gathering place". The Al Aqsa Mosque "Qibla" does not point to "Mecca", the Khirbat al Mafja Mosque built 724 AD, 103 years after the founding of "Islam", its "Qibla" does not point to "Mecca", all Mosques built in first 100 years after founding of "Islam", pointed to Petra in Jordan...

Change of the qibla (Arabic: تحويل القبلة) is the event in which the qibla of Muslims (direction of performing some rituals) was redirected from al-Aqsa mosque, in Bayt al-Maqids (Jerusalem), to the Ka'ba (in Mecca). The event occurred in Rajab, 2/January, 624, after the revelation of al-Qibla Verse. According to the majority of historiographers, the change of qibla occurred in Masjid al-Qiblatayn in Medina in the middle of the noon prayer. One interesting point about the redirection of the qibla is how people turned in the middle of a congregational prayer to over 160 degrees.
But the archeological evidence says that muslims decades later still didnʼt pray towards Mekka
According to Dan Gibson, the very first mosce with the Qibla Mekka was not until the seventwentyth. ALL Quiblas before were directed towards Petra. compare Jay Smith, ua-cam.com/video/ZZE_TXn3qxw/v-deo.html
WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Petra
then why all the mosques built directed to the north of Mecca? Why the description of Mohammed's location being in a valley of olive farmers surrounded by mountains?
You mistakenly forgot to mention that it was a deceiving man that made it all up and that none of it is true and that Islam is based COMPLETELY on lies and jealousy. The filth of man.

Yet...my reason for chiming is is this...
There was a time,not long ago,where all people of every religion,was welcome to visit the muslim nations. Then,with the great wealth of oil found in Egypt (during my lifetime) ,came the influx,or almost to a fact,an invasion of the West,and along with them,came vulgarity,pride,oppression of persons,ie.,lack of respect for those whose countries we swarmed in on,and still,more sinful ways. I was in the Marines and visited Turkey. It was amazing.Beautiful.The people were so kind and hospitable. So eager to offer their hospitality. Yet,at the port areas,where most American servicemen hung around,vulgarity and drunkenness abound . Sadly,the very poor who lived there,saw the chance to feed their families by accomodating the desires of the servicemen. I was stunned at the difference in the qualities of persons,between them and us . We acted like barbarians. After years of behavior like this,it affected those people. And this corruption of their ways,of their lives and lands continue to this day. Who we call terrorists,are people who,earlier,have asked us to leave. We jeered in their faces,and stayed.If someone entered your home,and acted like a drunken,vulgar fool,submitting your children to sinfulness on a daily basis,and refused to leave your home,wouldnt you,after a while,take measures to force the evil from your home?
I love my country,the USA. BUT,I am also ashamed of it as well .
Defending your home from evil,sinful invasion is NOT an act of terrorism,but an act of self preservation wholesomeness. We have NO business staying where we arent wanted. And they have every right to defend their lands and lifestyles from our vulgar invasion.
Criticize me if you will,but Ive BEEN there,and I feel compassion for their struggle against our invasion into their homes.
Maybe he should look in some of the Ancient Chinese accounts and writings in their ancient history. The Chinese were trading in that area and even with the Romans through various tribal Merchants including Arabs and desert peoples etc from very Ancient times. The Chinese may have some interesting writings about these Arabs and early Islam peoples/religions/practices. Chinese were always guarding their border lands against invaders, they had many tribal vassal states as well so the Chinese were great historians and record keepers, they are sure to have accounts worth reviewing.
By the 8th century or earlier Chinese ceramics were exported to Egypt and Western Asia, and of course much silk was exported to the Roman and Byzantine empires. I don’t remember when the first reference to Islam occurs in Chinese sources, although members of the Sassanian royal family fled to China after their defeat by the Arabs.

Calling this "the untold story" is a stretch to say the least
Yeah? where have you heard this version of it before?
Maybe it is not told by the first Muslims. Anyway they only believed what they are told.
The story is hampered by the fact that Arabs of that day did not keep written records. That came only later. So of course there is not a paper trail, showing the circumstances of Islam's rise. But to then offer your opinion as definitive, that Islam arose from the Arab empire, is imposing your version on a story where there is no documentation, either way. It's historical malpractice, in other words.
It's true that Mecca became the focus many years later. The niches in the very first mosques were pointed at Petra, according to another account. That gave birth to a theory that Mohammed was from there, being a trader, and Petra being a trading center. And Mecca has literally no archeology at all, which is strange, and difficult to reconcile with the Koran. But something united the Arabs before they could become an empire. This was no small thing - they were famous for inter-tribal wars. To this point, I haven't seen anything that would disprove the standard narrative - that it was the rise of this new religion, brought about by Mohammed. Only the lack of a paper trail, which you'd expect, given who the people were.
Muhammed travelled to Syria with caravans
There is written evidence from that very era up to this day. There is no any other religion which has pure authentic and unadulterated records than Islam.
Mr. Tom Jelinek , your comment is logic, but Islam has nothing to do with Petra at all , it was on the way of the caravans. I think Jay smith came up with this one, that most of the mosques I mean the Qibla was directed towards south-east /west from the north of Arabia , we had no astronomers at that time too to have the Qibla direction towards Mecca 🕋 accurately, see nowadays mosques 🕌 for instance. Petra was nothing after the Roman conquest in the 1st century AD . It was inhabited by Arabs , the remnants of Thamud. By the way , Mecca still have many archeological sites , but unfortunately after conquest of Ibn Saud in 1925 , many of these sites were destroyed, some graves of the companions of prophet Muhammad se still there especially the great wife of prophet Muhammad PBUH who shared him the very first moments after he received the first revelation of Quran. My greetings.🌹
@ yaania rasheed , Arabs knew many names of a thing , they are “linguists by nature “ even before Islam, one of the Arab linguists named “Al’Asma’i” knew more than 50 names for the “Stone” 😁, I knew bedouins who still use different names of the stone, like , Mangula, Gla’aa, and still “in their mother Arab dialect” ,unbelievably, amazingly use metaphor . The way they point to things and the way they describe them, it’s like magic.
Even if there is a written trail, can you still believe everything that got to be written? I mean most of Roman history and life were written by those who could access education, or you can say the Elites. They never tell you what's like being the normies or even slaves.
Maybe there were conquer that been exaggerated, like you'd find politics these days.

They have done archeological research into what grew in Mecca. It wasn’t much of anything as they found no evidence of trees as described in the Quran. What is obvious is that the original holy site was not in current day Mecca. You only have to look to the oldest Mosques to determine which direction they prayed and it was not toward current day Mecca. This does not mean Islam is false, it simply means that their holy sites have changed. Jerusalem was never a holy site for Muslims prior to their conquering of Jerusalem. Jerusalem is mentioned ZERO times in the Quran.
Don't talk through your hat. The most holiest site in Islam after mecca and madina is the Al aqsa mosque, which is mentioned in Quran.

Tom Holland's documentary "Islam: The Untold Story" was heavily criticized by scholars and experts for its numerous inaccuracies and factual errors.
One of the most significant inaccuracies was Holland's assertion that there was no archaeological evidence to support the traditional Islamic account of the life of Prophet Muhammad. Holland claimed that no physical evidence of Muhammad's existence or the early Islamic community had been found, and suggested that this was evidence that the traditional Islamic account of Muhammad's life was a later fabrication.
However, this claim was widely refuted by scholars and experts. Islamic studies professor Jonathan Brown, for example, wrote in a review of the documentary that Holland's claim "reflects a rather bizarre ignorance of the field of early Islamic history and archaeology."
Brown explained that while there is relatively little archaeological evidence from the early Islamic period, there is abundant written evidence from the time that supports the traditional Islamic account of Muhammad's life and the early Islamic community.
Other experts also pointed out factual errors in Holland's documentary, such as his claim that the Kaaba in Mecca was originally a Christian shrine, and his suggestion that the early Islamic conquests were primarily motivated by economic gain rather than religious ideology.
In response to the criticism, Holland issued a statement in which he acknowledged that some of his claims had been "unhelpfully phrased" and expressed regret for any offense caused. However, he maintained that the central thesis of his documentary remained valid.
Overall, the controversy surrounding Holland's documentary highlights the importance of careful and rigorous scholarship when exploring complex historical topics like the origins and development of Islam.
This was an eye opener meaning that we generally have to dig for answers if we are expected to accept and believe in anything. I found this video to be good , objective. But there is still a long way to go in looking for answers and I pray that we as humans get at least some of those answers, personally I don’t judge which is right or wrong, only to be able to find peace for at least myself. This video might or might not be it but it’s good to know there are efforts being made .
Mr Hollands book "Sword of Islam" - I think it's called - covers the subject of this video in some depth and is very good.

@@hamza-trabelsi You don't really do your point very much justice in criticizing the "4 Bedouins" considering the people who first administered and created the religion were in fact "simple people with no scholar knowledge". He was speaking to them to gain perspective on what the adherents to the faith actually believe; his thesis isn't underpinned wholly by what they have to say but to dismiss them as you have is to dismiss the views of average Muslims who aren't scholars but nonetheless practice the religion.
I agree with Praveen's review of Tom Holland's honest and relentless pursuit of historical facts, though it seemed more of a dramatic metanarrative - not a history of the origins of Islam, but a dramatization of one historian's seemingly heroic struggle to penetrate the mists of time. But this is not actually how history is conducted, is it? Anyone would want to start out with the best of what is already written. Why reinvent the wheel? Many if not most professional historians of Islam would direct you to The Venture of Islam: Conscience and History in a World Civilization Vol. 1-3 by Marshall G. S. Hodgson (1974, University of Chicago Press). Though Hodgson died before completing his project, even the first 3 volumes are magesterial in the quality of writing, comprehensiveness of source materials, objectivity AND respect, and sociological complexity.

Retired now for ten years, I regularly golf with Asian golf partners from Taiwan, Korea and those that actually lived in China and owned a factory in China. I very much enjoy hearing about their experiences, opinions, cultures and families. In “79”, I had many Iranian young men work for me. They needed to work due to assets being frozen and not being able to get back to Iran. 45 years later, I know for a fact some of these men have raised families in the U.S. and are as “Americanizes” as can be.
Although I recognize there are many Muslims in the U.S., they DO NOT want to over-assimilate or have there families, descendants effected by the American culture. My neighbor is one. He will not shake hands with someone such as I. I have encountered this many times interacting with persons of that culture. So- although in our country and our culture, their religion does not allow to integrate. This is segregation. Just saying. Definitely now a religion of love in my humble opinion.
Huh? In the US? I could see if it was Europe. The vast majority of Muslims in the US are thoroughly assimilated and will shake hands with anyone who respects them. Hell, they even celebrate the fourth. The only difference I know is that they may forego the hot dogs in favor of a burgher or a beef alternative.
What you can say is that his capacity to memorize and to keep the verses in chronological gives an equivalence of his brain capacity
I see you’ve never read the Kora, Islam = total corruption.
The verse you’re thinking of is likely from Surah Al-Hajj, which is Surah 22, verse 46. The verse says:
> "So have they not traveled through the earth and have hearts by which to reason and ears by which to hear? For indeed, it is not the eyes that are blinded, but blinded are the hearts which are within the breasts."
(Quran 22:46)
This verse emphasizes that spiritual blindness is not about physical sight but about the inner vision, the insight, or the understanding found in the heart.
An hour and eleven minutes of Tom Holland thinking, "I found a crater BUT do meteors exist?"
That big NO from the Professor humbled me so hard
It didn’t humble me at all. It made me angry at his arrogance and intellectual dishonesty - and rather worried about what attitudes like his lead to. What he was really saying is “You’re treading on dangerous ground.” For a year after this Holland and his family got the usual death threats. People who disagree too loudly do so at their own risk.
@@danielschaeffer1294 it is not eyes that blind.. but the hearts
you can call me anything, but understanding islam history without understanding islam in deep with correct and reliable explanation will lead you nowhere except hating islam.
@@dangerousyusra1613 Clearly you didn’t understand me. The death penalty for apostasy and blasphemy has been a part of Islam from the beginning. You can find it in the Koran. (5:33 and 4:89.) This fact, and those two verses are all one needs to know to reject Islam utterly and forever. No religion that can order its members to murder dissenters deserves respect.
@@danielschaeffer1294 this is so typical islamophobe BS... just took the verses without context and then use it against the one who studied it thoroughly..

How can anyone follow a religion that promotes violence? They spread chaos and intolerance along with violence.

We are all proofs
More like abduction
I think Holland wasting His time in the dessert. He missed out or may be forgot that there is Hadith book written by The disciple of Muhammad's companion. He quoted from His teacher (the companion who met Muhammad). If I'm not mistaken it was 50 years after the death of Prophet so theory that says Hadith is fabricated 200 years after prophet is rubish

Ask yourself this question. Who would be the most powerful God. A God who want your sons to die for him in order to get to heaven or a God who sent his son To die for you so that you can live.
cant have a son.. thats a physical thing. God is metaphysical. So no I dont want anyone to die for my sins, every indiviual is accountent for their actions. What your saying is since (the europianized version of christianity) says jesus died on the cross for them, this enables peole to ignore their morales and dont fear sinning, cuz its already taken care of 2000 years ago. NO. Every man and woman is responsible for their actions and will be taken into account in this or the next life ;) And guess what, saying that he has a son, who then again has a father, who then again has a mother who then again has a ghost, is one of the greatest sins of God. bible says "thou shalt not have other gods than god"

The sound effects are very very annoying, though the narrative is very informative!
So many comments about this being "poorly researched" and "missing so much history/information". Yet know one know what's missing, or where to find it.
@Game Of Web You mentioned a single place, mentioned in a single verse from the Quran. Yet gave no historical relevance to it. Which is what the person in the video was referring too.
Your other references to historical accuracy didn't even show a connection with the Quran.
Your mention of Hirayrah is somewhat strange to me, in all honesty. There are some Islamic scholars, who quote him as being a liar. Saying much of his work was stolen from others. Also, that he was a later convert, and spent little time with Muhammed. As well as criticism by Aisha and Umar. Many point out that Umar even with the physically assaulted him.
What quailifications do you feel on needs to be labeled an "arab" historian, or a "muslim" historian? The video presenter does have a degree, and has written several non-fiction books on historical figures, and historic periods.
@Game Of Web What are you talking about? You actually only addressed one thing I said directly. Yet not enough to dismiss my point. In reference to Hirayrah.
Your talking about a well in the desert, and a place being mentioned in the Bible, still doesn't show the passage you cited, having any historical reference to something that took place.
Do I really need to get into your going on about lawyers being total nonsense, in regards to my asking you about historian qualifications?
It is narrated on the authority of Ibn 'Umar ('Abdullah b. 'Umar) that the Messenger of moon elah Al'lah (may peace be upon him) observed: Verily Islam started as something strange and it would again revert (to its old position) of being strange just as it started, and it would recede between the two mosques just as the serpent crawls back into its hole.
@Game Of Web Again, you are not addressing what I actually said. Apparently it's more important for you to make up your own "version" of what I said.
Also, you are assuming that the person never talked to anyone that was "arab" or "Muslim", simply because you did not see it in the video? That's absurd on numerous levels.
I have no idea what documentary you are referring to on the "life" of Jesus. But, I will say all the ones that I have seen, offer no factual evidence on a historical life of Jesus. Simply speculation based on religious texts. Which are nothing more than historical narratives.
Your reference about someone mentioning some person, named Muhammed, who taught something, offers very little to support your argument. It's really no different than someone in the 1st century CE mentioning a person named Claudius, who was a store owner. Very common.
Your counter arguments are too emotional. You aren't taking the time to put together a coherent comment, that actually support your stance, with anything substantial. All you have really offered is emotion based snippets, that do nothing to actually refute the video.
@@skellingtonmeteoryballoon So you're commenting to the other person?
Where does this fall in the MCU?
I'm an hour in and spiderman still hasn't shown up
😂😂😂😂
Muhammad is thanos
This is the part where Spider-Man converted to Islam.
The conclusion is simplistic. The Prophet somewhat acquired a couple of texts from the Jewish religion and Christianity while traveling as a merchant around Syria, and took them all way back to somewhere in the Arabia desert. There he constructed the book by editing those texts. When he died many had converted but not sure where was the 'somewhere' so early mosques have diverse directions. Many years later some big warlords decided to be as cool as Roman emperors and felt like a cool religion was needed. The current holy city was designated as the original 'somewhere' and everyone in the following hundreds of years who doubted the decision was either killed or banished.
Thats why, its very diffrent and more logical to correct old versions of the same message, its an upgraded version of the same religion I think
Nice dream 🌏😃.Goes to show you havn't the faintest idea what you wrote about .
If simplistic, accurate. Your summary of what he says is brilliant and I mean that. It is what those skeptical of Islam fail to say in millions of words but which you've done in a few.
Your comment is brilliant.
@@bilalabdulsamad9152 Hmmm, sounded pretty convincing to me.
@karlwalters3763 it must have sounded pretty convincing for someone who doesn't know a thing about islam. Don't blame you . Because if you knew anything about islam you would know everything he said contradicts the history and every sentence can be disproven . A simple google search or youtube search will show you the evidence for all the stuff thats being said. And quran and hadith is available free online if you want to check any of the claims. Making up stories and calling them as facts and people who are convinced by them is the biggest joke i see in this world. Its amazing the stuff people comes up with without an atoms worth of facts and evidences.
The fist Christian scholar who wrote about Islam was John of Damascus, his book was Fountain of Knowledge (born 670 AC), who confirms Muhammad as the founder of Islam
I don’t this film at the end could conclude anything
It was more entertaining than a historical research
He notably confirmed the Islamic narrative is a fabrication
The point is he mentioned that there was a religion called Islam and his head of religion and their practices roughly 40-50 years after Mohammad dies
How come this documentary does not reveal the names of the “scholars” who provided their expert opinion? Was this deliberate so that their lives would not be at risk? Not knowing their credentials takes away some credibility to the whole documentary and all that they kept saying is “I don’t know”. I was expecting more substance honestly
I think the woman interviewed is one of the contributors. She died few years back. Her name is Patricia Crone. Fear of retribution is the main reason why. Subscribe to @pfanderfilms, CIRA international you will understand further

If I'm not mistaken it was 50 years after the death of Prophet so theory that says Hadith is fabricated 200 years after prophet is rubish
THIS IS THE TOO-OFTEN-UNTOLD STORY
It’s hard to believe that after 1,400 years anything remains to be said about Muhammad, Islam’s texts, and Muslim history.
First, Muhammad said he got the Qur'ān privately from an angel in a cave.
When he nevertheless found that he was making only a small impact in Mecca, in 622 he left for Yathrib with some fellow emigrants-Islam’s Hijrah-changed Yathrib’s name to Medina, and embarked on a different route to influence: war, which has remained Islam’s way ever since (though Muslims are certainly on a peace offensive now, apart from their war in Africa’s Sahel).
“The Apostle...struck whoever turned his back to (God) until he came to Islam, willingly or grudgingly” (Islam’s first caliph, Abu Bakr, quoted in al-Tabari's History of the Prophets and Kings”). Grudgingly, huh?
An interviewer in 2011 asked Ahmad Abu Quddum “So we are commanded to fight in order to spread the religion of Allah?”
“Yes,” he said, “this is Islam’s way of spreading.”
In his new home, Muhammad drew up a Constitution of Medina that made him the town’s leading citizen. Meanwhile he fought a series of battles, offensive and defensive, including 627’s Battle of the Trench-a siege, really-after which he personally beheaded at least 600 men and a woman of Medina’s Jewish Banu Qurayza tribe for not supporting him.
“The Messenger of Allah...slaughtered 700 people-that is our Prophet and our religion” (UA-cam’s Abu Muhammad Ar Rusi).
While in Medina, Muhammad sat in judgment of a man who’d killed his children’s mother for having slandered Muhammad, who found the man not guilty: “Oh be witness, no retaliation is payable for her blood” (Abu Dawud 5:4361, a canonical hadith).
In early 630, Muhammad triumphantly returned to Mecca at the head of an army. He died there in June 632.
So what do Islam’s texts say? They are extensive, but include
Qur'ān 2:2, which discourages THINKING about the Qur'ān: “This is the Book about which there is no doubt.”
Qur'ān 2:285 makes the point clearer still: “We hear and we obey.”
And Qur'ān 5:101-02 adds “Do not put questions about things which if declared to you may trouble you....A people before you...became disbelievers on account of them.”
So what is Muslims’ mandate? Qur'ān 2:251 says “And if it were not for Allah checking [some] people by means of others, the earth would have been corrupted....” (The brackets are in the translation.) Qur'ān 2:216 has Muhammad saying “Fighting is enjoined on you.” And Bukhari 4:52:311 has him saying “When you are called by the Muslim ruler for jihād fighting, you should go forth immediately.”
And Muslims’ defense of Islam is to be brutal. Qur'ān 5:33 says “The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His messenger and strive to make mischief in the land is only this, that they should be murdered or crucified or their hands and their feet should be cut off on opposite sides.”
Qur'ān 8:67 says “It is not for a prophet to have captives [of war] until he inflicts a massacre [upon Allah's enemies] in the land” (brackets of which are in the translation), which makes of Muhammad a brutal man of war.
Indeed, Qur'ān 9:3 says “Allah and His Apostle are free from liability to the idolaters.”
Quickly then, Qur'ān 9:5 says “When the sacred months have passed away, then slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them captives and besiege them and lie in wait for them in every ambush,” a clear exhortation to premeditated murder.
Finally, in 712, eighty years after Muhammad’s death, al-Hajjaj bin Yousef cited Qur'ān 47:4’s “O True believers, when you encounter the unbelievers, strike off their heads” to justify a slaughter of thousands in Brahmanabad, far up the Indus River valley.
But does that typify Muslim history?
Muslims invaded India, not the reverse; Persia, not the reverse; the Byzantine Empire (including Syria and Egypt), not the reverse; Africa’s Maghreb, not the reverse; Europe, not the reverse; and fought the Chinese on the Talas River, far from Arabia.
“The Mohammedan Conquest of India is probably the bloodiest story in history,” wrote Will Durant (1885-1981).
And in 636-37, Muslims besieged and took Jerusalem, to which they had no claim aside from arrogance.
Moreover, to this very hour, no one has ever invaded Arabia’s Hejaz, which embraces both Mecca and Medina.
Have Muslim jihādis misunderstood Islam? Ibn Khaldun (1332-1406), a Muslim sociologist admired in the West, once summarized Muslims’ obligations this way:
“In the Muslim community, the holy war is a duty because of...[the obligation to] convert everyone to Islam either by persuasion or by force....The other groups did not have a universal mission, so the holy war was not a religious duty to them....All of them are unbelief. This is clearly stated in the noble Qur'an. [To] discuss or argue those things with them is not up to us. It is [for them to choose among] conversion to Islam, payment of the poll tax [jizya], or death.”
Abul A'la Maududi (1903-1979) wrote "The goal of Islam is to rule the entire world and submit all of mankind to the faith of Islam. Any nation or power in this world that tries to get in the way of that goal, Islam will fight and destroy....The believers [are] under an obligation to do their utmost to dislodge them from political power and make them live in subservience to the Islamic way of life."
And in 2015, Abu Bakar Bashir said “If the West wants to have peace, then they must accept Islamic rule.”
That, then, is what the world is up against and what much of the world is loath to face. It’s also what humanity MUST face if it’s to survive.
“Avoid novelties, for every novelty is an innovation, and every innovation is an error” (Muhammad, quoted at Abu Dawud 3:4590).
Mohammed was just another “Joesph Smith” who was discontented with the religions of his day, so he borrowed from several religions and made up the rest claiming “private revelation”. It gained for him a lot of power- which further bolstered his pride and insanity.
I believe their egos make Muhammad compare more closely with Donald Trump than with any other contemporary or recent figure.
That sums up all religions.
@@michaelbattenfield4100Perhaps Mohammed was role model for Joseph Smith.
Mohammed was a shepherd, merchant, prophet, rebel, war lord and theocratic despot.
Mohammed had plenty of wifes, but he had no living sons. The death of the prophet and the betrayal of her trusted men are also silent history. Fatima's children and Ali were brutally silenced.

…moved the holy place, how convenient.
@Larsbording remember in war the victors are the ones who write the history but, somethings you can't hide.
This documentary is a joke. Islam is a fake religion made up.
I believe this could be what happened and Islam was in Jordan or Syria somewhere, as ibrahim never been to Mecca 🕋
Also there is a hadeeth that Mohamed’s mother when give birth to him her VAGINA produce light which went up to Syria and Lebanon, why exactly this area ??
8:50 He predicted this documentary to come out like this, that's why he said "no"!
He is a wise man.
No need to predict nothing.. it’s true that there is mo any archaeological evidence thar proves the history of islam at its birth... The Islamic history was written more that a 100 years after Mohammed was died 🤷🏻
IDK /
The battles you’ve mentioned were documented because they were true events. And NO.. no history of islam was written and compiled in1-2 decade. First historian collected the oral stories and formed a biography of Mohammed was Ibn Ishaq a century after Mohammed’s death. But the original copy of that biography disappeared after a man called Ibn Hisham editted it and wrote a new one a century after ibn Ishaq.
IDK /
To answer your question about Abu Baker i need a time machine to go back to that time.. because no history was wetting.. the history of the Islam you know and everyone knows about was written 2 centuries after its birth 🤷🏻
IDK / As for those battles they were international events.. they had big impacts in area.. that’s why everyone knows about them.. but they don’t prove anything about islam.. they were battles between the arabs and Persians and Romans.. because their details aren’t profound facts neither.
IDK / Brother.. I’m telling history about the first biography of Islam by ibn Ishaq and later Ibn Hisham and you are telling a sort of bloodline story? 🤷🏻

Very interesting. Love the tour of ancient places
Mr. Holland seems to pull his punches more in this film than in his book, although that is not to say that his book takes gratuitous shots at Islam. The boot draws several clear lines to suggest the transmission of Jewish and heretical Christian ideas into Arabia. This file, I think, comes after his book so it's not clear if his thinking has changed or if it's a simple matter that the risks in expressing ideas have changed.
Judging from the fact this documentary was only broadcast once before protests took it off air, it seems reasonable to conclude he had softened it for public reception.
Dude, do you take Mescaline? The documentary is a bit tedious at points, and it sounds as if you enjoyed his book to a degree. Perhaps English is not your first language - and I say that in a friendly way. Because "his book," is not the only thing transmitting "Jewish and" (heretical?) "ideas into Arabia." EVERY source, including the Koran itself does so. Muslim belief in part is that God revealed himself to Jewish/Christian prophets.
Really enjoyed watching guy ride on a train and sit on a bed looking perplexed.
I think this video has a lot to offer that is good. It gives substantial documentation where it exists and the whole show says to me think on this information. Thank you 🌷🙋♀️.
video production quality is amazing
He didn't include stamp of Muhammad (pbuh)? Letters sent to Roman and Persian empires?
Accurately identified
That has been long discarded as authentic
I'm sure that Mr. Holland's trip to the Middle East for this Documentary didn't include all of the trips to various sites in order too authenticate the relationship to him being a prophet called by God as it is written in the Quran, again as God instructed to be done. May I ask when was the Quran written? And from what text was it taken from that Muhammad knew about Adam, Eve, Abrams, and his sons including his nephew Lot in Sodom/Goliath. Was that taken from the history found in the cave that Mr. Holland visited that showed the cross in that cave?? However, too enlighten the person who wrote that Tom Holland majored in English, doesn't mean he is not a Historian. My B.A., is in Social Work, but my major was Law!! Like law you have to research the facts if their out there, if you want to verify the truth about something or someone. Historians have been interested in this as well as the public forever or it wouldn't be called History without documented facts like DNA!! Another question I read about after listening to another Documentary that included his marriage to a 6yr., but didn't have sex with her until age 9 Aisha, and the story I just read in the comments about how this mother an brother beat his sister, when she didn't comply with them for whatever reason. What sin had she commited? Has the Islamic community read the book of REVELATION from front to back so they have a good take on what the day of judgment is all about?? I'm just curious.......

You make me want to understand more about WHO exactly were living in Palestine between 100-600 A.D., and how exactly they just let this new Arab army walk in, take over, and build Al-Aqsa on Mount Moriah. Lots of new ideas to think about. Thank you very much.
Did anyone ever tell you you look exactly like Ellen DeGeneres
So true! 😂
hahahaha hehehe agreed
What has the "look" to do with all these?!!!

The quesion is how do we know that Tom Holland exist? the answer is we dont know.
@Steve Lyons how do we know where is the proof?
Tom Holland can be anything but not "well researched" 😅
Although Islam has a theological element, it is essentially a political ideology. It prescribes how society must be structured and is an existential threat to liberal democratic enlightenment. If it were merely concerned with personal worship and personal ethical behaviour, it wouldn't be a problem. But it comes with a set of laws for the governance of the whole of society. Over the next hundred years, Islam should become a powerful political force in Europe and perhaps consigning liberal democratic enlightenment to the ashes of history.
So after watching this. I take it that they made the Muslim regilion up as they lived. Didn't matter if it was truth or lies as long as they had something to believe in. Sounds piss poor to me
Yup that's what I took from this as well. The fact that a book written 900 years after Christ, yet somehow puts itself directly in the time of Abraham and later Christ seems very shady. Look at all the scrolls being discovered talking about the Bible and Jesus yet Arabs never bothered to mention the so called prophet.
He lies ( in the documentary)

"...they made the Muslim regilion(sic) up...". Oh, you mean like Christians, Jews, Hindus, etc. did? All religions are made up by humans. Yours too, if you have one.
Christianity and Islam are just two piles of the same shit. One pile went West,one pile went east. Neither one's better or worse .Neither has anything to do with truth or true spirituality. We'd all be better off without either.Fuck 'em BOTH!!! If that pisses someone off, Good.
just reading the comments made me more motivated to see this vid
but don't just stop here, read the quran too, and see for yourself. ..
Ahmad Deedat why should he or she read the Quran or whatever? It’s all bull crap and fallacies. Non sense!
King Martin at least it's more authentic than another certain book
@@kingmartin3990 because reading is the gate way to knowledge. Not youtube videos.
I laughed when he said why any arab would walk pass the remains of the city of Lot. I mean there was no Jordan at the time. The entire Middle east was a free reign. People WALKED long distances if that actually made sense to you 😂😂😂
@Gary Allen In a sense there wans't any barrier between nations around that part.
Interesting research. Most people that are religious believe not because something is proven but because they feel it or have an inner conviction to follow it. Once you receive the gift of faith life takes on new meaning and somehow makes sense of life...in my experience.
