  • In order to modernize their society, Muslim governments sent missions of students to Western Europe during the 19th century. These students would return with their own observations regarding the West in the hopes that their success could be replicated back home. A generation of ambitious Muslim students and scholars alike pondered the question “Is Islam Compatible With The West”. While many contributed to this new rise of Western learning, the Egyptian Rifa’a al-Tahtawi’s works would be among the most important in Islamic history as it is from his writings that the modern Muslim identity changes forever.

    Is it a smart idea for Islamic societies to emulate the West in terms of cultural and societal values?

      no the Muslims are better here is the evidence. God is our Maker and he knows what is best for us.
      everything God Made Halal ( allowed ) is good for us in individual level and Collective level.
      for example, Islam believes in the institution of Marriage highly.
      without it the society will fall as we see.
      Why? because without Marriage there's no commitment nor rules and Women will end up having Kids without fathers for which will produce single parent households which produces mental illness which eventually gives birth to all types of decadence.
      In Islam we believe our actions have consequences in individual level and collective level.
      In secular society, Criminals who committed murder and vile crimes, are put in Jails belt by the people's taxes and fed by the people's taxes.
      In Islam, People who committed Murder and vile crimes like spreading decadence which leads to the demise of the society, are put to death.
      In secular society, Alchohol is allowed which harms the person in individual level and collective level. in individual level it destroys his life achieving nothing and causes kidney failure, in collective level it destroys the family which leads eventually to the destruction of society as mentioned before and the birth of all decadence.
      In Islam, Alchohol is forbidden and the one who sells or drinks get lashed publicly. Now if you do it in your home and no one sees that's your sin ,but to do publicly or advocate for it, you go against God's rule that protect society.
      Sin is contagious and that is why it must not be public.
      God said in the Quran " You may dislike something although it is good for you, or like something although it is bad for you: God knows and you do not.’"
      I can see why now Shariah is the way to live and build a strong society and the only way to eradicate all decadence and isms in society.
      Note: no Muslim countries now don't implement the sharia now because if they did, they will be sanctioned or " freedom" will be lunched on them. But We implement shariah on ourselves and our families and society willingly and if it must, we force it on our society even if our country refuse.
      now about Democracy it gives the rights to everyone specially the degenerated and rights for lobbyists who play on the country's affairs in and out and rights for people with bad intentions to reach powerful positions and divide the country in left and right and make the country stand for nothing and destroys the identity of the people ( civilization ) sound fimilar? 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺🇺🇸
      Historically speaking all countries and civilizations stood for something and if you tolerate everything than you stand for nothing. in order for a civilization to stand against hardship and all waves they need to stand for something and democracy and secularism doesn't offer this in fact both are hypocritical systems and subjective. Democracy is Hypocrisy as i explained why above. in nowhere that secularism is " good ".

      for me, the atheism of the West is just that: it doesnt matter what sort of theism you have or dont have. the problem, however, is when you have "closedness" making it easier to reinforce being closed, but your "openness" doesnt reinforce being open, but is hijacked by people wanting to use your "openness" to push closedness.

      And there have been plenty of places where Islam has overlapped with other cultures that on theory it should be in eternal Jihad against. Christians in Iberia, the Balkans and Sicily. Polytheists in Central Asia, West and East Africa, and India. It took until the early 1900s for the Copt Christians in Egypt to reach low numbers, and thats right next door to Islams heartland in Arabia. Same goes for Christians and Jews in Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Jordan and Palestine. And non mainstream Islam that has a lot of political differences like the huge numbers of Sufi, Ibadi, Druze and Yazidi need to be mentioned as well.

    On the contary, I think the conquest of Sudan is one of the reasons that led to Egypt's downfall in the first place because they gained nothing from it along with that of the luxurious spending of the rulers such as Ismail the "Magnificent". Instead, the Khedive's government should invested more in learning secular sciences, democracy and reforming the military to maintain the status as the de facto independent nation within the Ottoman Empire.

    Benedict XVI on Islam and the west
    Pope Benedict XVI (born Joseph Alois Ratzinger on April 16, 1927) is Pope Emeritus of the Catholic Church, having served as Pope from 2005 to 2013.
    Islam has a total organization of life that is completely different from ours; it embraces simply everything,...There is a very marked subordination of woman to man; there is a very tightly knit criminal law, indeed, a law regulating all areas of life, that is opposed to our modern ideas about society.
    One has to have a clear understanding that it is not simply a denomination that can be included in the free realm of a pluralistic society.

    @chechenknightslaillaillall2047 4 місяці тому +13

    I am Muslim Chechen, but grew up in secular Sweden (which has Christian background), and I think it will depend on which circumstances.
    For instance, Georgia, the country in the Caucasus, has been Christian for centuries, so deeply ingrained to the culture of Georgia. However, for all of their Christian faith, the Georgians welcomed us during the Russian invasion at the 19th century before they did again in 1990s when Russia tried to stop our independence. Today, Georgians and Chechens live in harmony and there is no tension between the two and it is very common to see Georgians and Chechens marry each other. We have vowed to fight for Georgia until the last drop of blood since Georgia provides a second home for us.
    But in some others, political uses of religions can be tricky. Simply put, Iran. This regime persecuted everyone, but in particular very violent on non-Shia Muslim groups. However, they left the Armenians alone. Meanwhile, Turkey conducted genocide on Greeks, Assyrians and Armenians, but they left the Georgians alone. Meanwhile, the French and British exploited the Muslims to do their bid of conquest, such as in Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia, Muslims were recruited to fight in Indochina against the Buddhist Vietnamese; or how the Rohingyas were used by the British to fight the Japanese and Burmese Buddhists, creating racial discord. Then, look at Russia: the Russians employed Muslims to its army to fight Muslims of the Caucasus, only for the Muscovites then imposed their colonial control favouring the Orthodox Church.
    It's not likely about "the West" vs "Islam". It's rather how religions are used as ploys for conquest and frictions. Overcoming it will require massive efforts of understanding, which, sadly, has never been a thing.

      So the entire paragraph goes like this from verse 5 unto verse 34, then:
      5 These twelve Jesus sent out with the following instructions: “Do not go among the Gentiles or enter any town of the Samaritans.
      6 Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel.
      7 As you go, proclaim this message: ‘The kingdom of heaven has come near.’
      8 Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy,[a] drive out demons. Freely you have received; freely give.
      9 “Do not get any gold or silver or copper to take with you in your belts -
      10 no bag for the journey or extra shirt or sandals or a staff, for the worker is worth his keep.
      11 Whatever town or village you enter, search there for some worthy person and stay at their house until you leave.
      12 As you enter the home, give it your greeting.
      13 If the home is deserving, let your peace rest on it; if it is not, let your peace return to you.
      14 If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, leave that home or town and shake the dust off your feet.
      15 Truly I tell you, it will be more bearable for Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that town.
      16 “I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves.
      17 Be on your guard; you will be handed over to the local councils and be flogged in the synagogues.
      18 On my account you will be brought before governors and kings as witnesses to them and to the Gentiles.
      19 But when they arrest you, do not worry about what to say or how to say it. At that time you will be given what to say,
      20 for it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.
      21 “Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; children will rebel against their parents and have them put to death.
      22 You will be hated by everyone because of me, but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved. 23 When you are persecuted in one place, flee to another. Truly I tell you, you will not finish going through the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes.
      24 “The student is not above the teacher, nor a servant above his master. 25 It is enough for students to be like their teachers, and servants like their masters. If the head of the house has been called Beelzebul, how much more the members of his household!
      26 “So do not be afraid of them, for there is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made known.
      27 What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the roofs.
      28 Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.
      29 Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father’s care.[b]
      30 And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.

      Allow me to educate you about the anglo sephere. When Nazis lost ww2 many Nazi scientists and psychologists Joined the Anglo sephere along with " Jews" Who are white converts to Judaism as well and both together created the anglo sephere.
      What is stopping the Anglo sephere to drop their liberal masks and show their true Nazi faces is resources like Oil and Gas.
      If Russia falls, anglo sephere will have access to oil and gas and will no more play liberal.
      they use liberalism and " tolerance " to get attraction from other immigrants to tax them to death and by these taxes they enforce their values and plans on others
      Satan chosen their race to implement his plans not because they are superior, but literally because they are inferior people who can't control their desires.
      " Inferior people are those who cannot control their desires and Superior People are those who can Control their desires "- Jihadi John 2014.
      We muslims have shed our blood in every land we conquered and lived in peace with natives and inhabitants of the lands we conquered and always fought our equals and those who suppressed us in numbers and resources. While their inferior race went across the ocean to avoid us and our Superiority. they went to lands and fought naked men with spears and sticks took their lands and resources, belt their empires and then came to us and we still fight them to this day and won multiple times.

      ​@@nrein89Hi the Owner of the Channel, I am Muslim Arab brown and PROUD. I will tell you why we dislike democracy and all western isms and all ideologies, I challenge whites to come here debate. now about Democracy it gives the rights to everyone specially the degenerated and rights for lobbyists who play on the country's affairs in and out and rights for people with bad intentions to reach powerful positions and divide the country in left and right and make the country stand for nothing and destroys the identity of the people ( civilization ) sound fimilar? 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺🇺🇸
      Historically speaking all countries and civilizations stood for something and if you tolerate everything than you stand for nothing. in order for a civilization to stand against hardship and all waves they need to stand for something and democracy and secularism doesn't offer this in fact both are hypocritical systems and subjective. Democracy is Hypocrisy as i explained why above. in nowhere that secularism is " good ".
      God is our Maker and he knows what is best for us.
      Everything God made forbidden, It harms us in individual level and collective level
      And everything God Made Halal ( allowed ) is good for us in individual level and Collective level.
      for example, Islam believes in the institution of Marriage highly.
      without it the society will fall as we see.
      Why? because without Marriage there's no commitment nor rules and Women will end up having Kids without fathers for which will produce single parent households which produces mental illness which eventually gives birth to all types of decadence.
      In Islam we believe our actions have consequences in individual level and collective level.
      In secular society, Criminals who committed murder and vile crimes, are put in Jails belt by the people's taxes and fed by the people's taxes.
      In Islam, People who committed Murder and vile crimes like spreading decadence which leads to the demise of the society, are put to death.
      In secular society, Alchohol is allowed which harms the person in individual level and collective level. in individual level it destroys his life achieving nothing and causes kidney failure, in collective level it destroys the family which leads eventually to the destruction of society as mentioned before and the birth of all decadence.
      In Islam, Alchohol is forbidden and the one who sells or drinks get lashed publicly. Now if you do it in your home and no one sees that's your sin ,but to do publicly or advocate for it, you go against God's rule that protect society.
      Sin is contagious and that is why it must not be public.
      God said in the Quran " You may dislike something although it is good for you, or like something although it is bad for you: God knows and you do not.’"
      I can see why now Shariah is the way to live and build a strong society and the only way to eradicate all decadence and isms in society.
      Note: no Muslim countries now don't implement the sharia now because if they did, they will be sanctioned or " freedom" will be lunched on them. But We implement shariah on ourselves and our families and society willingly and if it must, we force it on our society even if our country refuse.

      The Quran even speaks of those who fight will get loot, but those that don't will get none.
      How Islam became "successful" : " "Fight against those who do not believe in Allah... nor acknowledge the religion of deception (Islam) among the people who were given the scriptures, until they pay the security tax willingly, and feel themselves subdued.""

      ​@@yellowSmileyFacee Islam originated in a land where denouncing idol worship would result in being persecuted, harassed and physically attacked. For example, one of the companions of the Prophet was a former slave who was beaten ruthlessly all day in the desert heat merely for proclaiming belief in One God, before being freed by the Muslims. The Prophet himself had raw intestines poured on him while silently praying, had garbage dumped on his house and was attempted to be poisoned ( the woman who did so he forgave). This is why Islam has such seemingly harsh responses.
      Anyway, anything an Arab has ever done is not necessarily Islamic, just like the actions of a European are not necessarily Christian.
      An authentic Hadith (saying) of the Prophet:
      “If anyone wrongs a Mu'ahid, detracts from his rights, burdens him with more work than he is able to do, or takes something from him without his consent, I will plead for him (the Mu'ahid) on the Day of Resurrection.”
      A Mu’ahid is a person who has a peace treaty with the Muslims, or who lives under their rule and pays the Jizya, which funnily enough allows them not to participate in war and gives them the right to be defended.

    Prophet Muhammad(SAW) already said that Muslims will follow Jews and Christians exactly as they do. It was a question for me about when this started for a long time. Allaah never sent humans to modernise in the world. In fact Allaah keeps on warning that don't divulge in worldly affairs that will divert from Allah's remembrance and straight path. The only reason behind our presence in this world is to live as per Allah's guidance. Not according to infidel humans who are after the world. Prophet Muhammad(SAW) said that the intelligent person is the one who identified God. If a person excelled in worldly knowledge, failing to identify God is a fool and a lover. Al Tahtawi's ideology has dragged the Muslim world far away from the true purpose set by Allaah. In fact it has made Muslims slave of Jews and Christians. Allaah won't ask whether you modernise or not. Allaah will ask whether you fulfilled the purpose by following my messenger and his message. I have watched so many of your other videos as well. Very much informative and knowledgeable. I learnt a lot. Jazakallaah khair.
