Rise Of The Fatimid Caliphate (909-1021) | History Documentary Hikma History 2020-08-30 | With its roots in a movement that had been driven underground, the creators of this new Shia state had been moulded by the pressure of living in deserts and in secret. Once in power, they announced their ambitions by establishing a Khilafah. Over the next century, they would assert themselves across North Africa and the Middle East; in the process overshadowing their Abbasid foes. This is the history of the Fatimids.

How India Went To War With Pakistan In 1971 Hikma History 2024-10-20 | Bangladesh hit global headlines recently as a result of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina resigning in the face of massive protests against her administration. One of the protestors’ grievances was the quota-based system which reserved 30% of government jobs for descendants of the resistance movement which helped create the country in 1971. The struggle for its existence has come to mark it. Originally constituting the eastern wing of Pakistan, it found its voice stifled by the government centered in the west. In March 1971, the charismatic activist leader Mujibur Rahman declared Bangladesh’s independence. What happened next was chaos - as the Pakistani war machine moved across the country, unleashing death and destruction, almost indiscriminately. Pakistan’s arch nemesis, India got involved as the Bengal became the scene of a short but deadly conflict. In the end, the sacrifices made by the Bengali people were vindicated by their victory.FREE NEWSLETTER:https://mailchi.mp/a69f93be6c66/hikma-history-newsletter- Become a Patron for as little as a dollar a month to vote on upcoming and keep the movement going! patreon.com/user?u=12397811Massive thank you to our Patreons:ElmanTheBactrianGamblerPreston PAdamMohammadAreebAwaisOmar Farid Ibrahim Ari Joshua HaseebNahidAmirMahmoud JoelCoreBard- Join our social media community:Twitter:twitter.com/HikmaHistoryInstagram:instagram.com/hikmahistoryFacebook:facebook.com/HikmaHistoryFacebook group:https://www.facebook.com/groups/hikma...#bangladesh #pakistan #history Images Used:Music Used:Doug Maxwell - Arabian Nightfall (Sting): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3bRzD...

When Jordan Went To War With Palestinians | Black September Hikma History 2024-10-16 | King Hussein now had the added headache of becoming host to the PLO, the Palestinian resistance movement. This was a headache for him because the PLO would launch attacks into Israel from their headquarters in Jordan; as a result inviting Israeli reprisal attacks on Jordanian soil. The PLO became so prominent in Jordan that they were in essence able to form a state within a state, violating local laws, shooting at Jordanian soldiers. King Hussein’s very authority was under threat from the powerful Palestinian groups. By September 1970, the inevitable conflict of interests culminated into open warfare. In the events that have since been referred to as Black September, the PLO were routed out of the capital Amman within 2 weeks, and by the summer of 1971, all of the PLO members were expelled from Jordan; moving their bases to Lebanon.

How Lebanon Became So Chaotic | History Documentary Hikma History 2024-10-14 | Lebanon is currently occupying news headlines as the latest battleground for the prolonged Arab-Israeli Conflict. Unfortunately for the Lebanese people, this is on the back of decades of sustained political and economic troubles. It is a country famous for its diversity, with people from various creeds converging to create a real melting pot. Sadly, this diversity has been the cause of some serious pain for the Lebanese, as the horrific trauma of the civil war still haunts the country. Starting off with its inception in the mid-19th century, in this video we will track the historical development of Lebanon as a nation-state ever since. We will see how the country’s creation came about as a result of France’s patronage of Lebanese Christians after an extreme act of sectarian violence; from there, we’ll move on its golden age in the 1960s when its capital Beirut was referred to as the Paris of the East before being bogged down in one of the region’s deadliest civil wars; finally, ending the story with the rise of Hezbollah and its current domination of Lebanese politics.

How Israels Victory In 1967 Came To Haunt Them Hikma History 2024-10-10 | In June 1967, Israel scored one of the most stunning military victories in modern warfare against the combined forces of Syria, Egypt and Jordan. In the space of 6 days, they neutralized their foes and moved in to take control of what was left of Palestinian territory. perhaps the most important side effect of this emphatic victory was that it emboldened independent Palestinian resistance groups to take matters into their own hands and rely less on fellow Arab states to fight on their behalf. From their headquarters in Jordan, the PLO enjoyed a surge of unprecedented popularity as recruitment for their cause increased massively. The group gained such momentum that by 1970, King Hussein of Jordan felt his position and authority were under attack by the PLO, who some have described as having created a state within a state in Jordan. So King Hussein forced the Palestinian resistance movement out of his country in events that are now known as Black September in 1970. Subsequently, the PLO moved their base to Lebanon.FREE NEWSLETTER:https://mailchi.mp/a69f93be6c66/hikma-history-newsletter- Become a Patron for as little as a dollar a month to vote on upcoming and keep the movement going! patreon.com/user?u=12397811Massive thank you to our Patreons:ElmanTheBactrianGamblerAdamMohammadAreebFarid Ibrahim Ari Joshua HaseebAmirMahmoud JoelCoreBard- Join our social media community:Twitter:twitter.com/HikmaHistoryInstagram:instagram.com/hikmahistoryFacebook:facebook.com/HikmaHistoryFacebook group:https://www.facebook.com/groups/hikma...#lebanon #israel #palestineImages Used:Music Used:Doug Maxwell - Arabian Nightfall (Sting): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3bRzD...

Lebanons Great Famine - The Kafno Hikma History 2024-10-05 | Lebanon today is on the brink of disaster - with its economy failing; its political scene marred by intrigue and corruption, all the while foreign powers meddle in its internal affairs. Many of these issues are rooted in the Mount Lebanon Mutasarrifate era and the subsequent French Mandate. These two periods (1861-1943) combined to bring about the emergence of a modern Lebanese nation-state. Lebanon experienced great changes in this time, both good and bad - with hundreds of thousands moving abroad, not to mention a famine that wiped out a chunk of the population; at the same time, Beirut emerged as an economic hub in the backdrop of a cultural renaissance taking place.

When Israel Invaded Lebanon Hikma History 2024-09-30 | From South Lebanon the Palestinian Liberation Organisation frequently launched attacks on Israel, which ultimately led to a number of military reprisals. The first of these came in 1978, when the Israeli army rolled into southern Lebanon to neutralize the threat of fedayeen attacks. The Israeli involvement in the war as a response to Palestinian attacks further complicated Lebanon’s civil war. 4 years later, Israel would invade again. This time, they wanted a permanent solution to PLO attacks. They allied themselves with the Christian Lebanese Front and besieged Beirut. Seeing themselves surrounded and at the prey of aerial attacks, the PLO were given a way out under the protection of international peacekeepers as they accepted defeat and relocated their headquarters to Tunisia. The Lebanese Civil War would drag on throughout the 1980s and finally came to an end in 1990. Israel would maintain a presence in Lebanese soil until 2000.FREE NEWSLETTER:https://mailchi.mp/a69f93be6c66/hikma-history-newsletter- Become a Patron for as little as a dollar a month to vote on upcoming and keep the movement going! patreon.com/user?u=12397811Massive thank you to our Patreons:ElmanTheBactrianGamblerAdamMohammadAreebFarid Ibrahim Ari Joshua HaseebAmirMahmoud JoelCoreBard- Join our social media community:Twitter:twitter.com/HikmaHistoryInstagram:instagram.com/hikmahistoryFacebook:facebook.com/HikmaHistoryFacebook group:https://www.facebook.com/groups/hikma...#lebanon #israel #warImages Used:Music Used:Doug Maxwell - Arabian Nightfall (Sting): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3bRzD...

How The Timurids Created A Renaissance Amidst Civil Wars | History Documentary Hikma History 2024-09-26 | Commonly in history, there has to be a period of political stability that is subsequently accompanied by great cultural advancements. The Timurid Empire, established by the legendary Turco-Mongolian conqueror Timur, did not adhere to this rule. Almost immediately from Timur’s death in 1405, his progeny were locked in constant conflict with each other as each sought to assert their dominance over Timur’s vast realm. This lack of political stability did not prevent the Timurids from supervising a renaissance that saw cities like Herat and Samarkand become icons of artistic glory and scientific progress. As the Timurids went to war with each other, beautiful monuments were erected, schools of art were opened up and astronomical observatories were established.

Dost Mohammad Khan’s Legacy Hikma History 2024-09-20 | Dost Muhammad Khan lived two hundred years ago, but his stature as the byword for an illustrious ruler had a long-lasting resonance. Surviving many dangers in a tempestuous era, he laid the foundations for not only the Barakzai dynasty but also the state of Afghanistan. With the decay of the Durrani Empire, Afghanistan had a need for a strong ruler that could keep the realm unified. The Dost fit that bill perfectly. For much of his reign, he had to balance dealing with internal discord in his realm, whilst protecting it from outside for like the capable Sikh armies of Ranjit Singh. Perhaps his greatest victory came in mediating the Great Game rivalry of Britain and Russia, who both had their own designs for his Emirate. Who was this larger-than-life figure, and what was his story? I want to thank Timur Khan for his invaluable help with the script. He is a PhD Candidate at Leiden University. His research focuses on Durrani rule in 18th and 19th century Peshawar.

Nader Becomes Shah of Iran Hikma History 2024-08-23 | In 1698, a child was born in the mountainous regions of North Khorasan. Despite the fact that he came from no royal lineage—his father was a mere shepherd—he would one day become the last of the Asiatic world-conquerors, in the vein of Timur and Chinggis Khan. The boy’s name was Nadr-Qoli, meaning “servant of the wonderous one (God)”. There was nothing about Nadr-Qoli’s circumstances which marked him out for greatness. His ancestry was undistinguished, his place of birth remote, and his social connection were unremarkable. The collapse of the Safavid Empire, however, would provide the opening that a young ambitious man required. With Persia being overrun by the Hotaks, Nader took charge of the fight back, expelling the Afghans from the country. From there he established the Afsharid Dynasty and declared his mission to conquer lands in all directions. In the process, he became Asia’s Last Great Conqueror.Big thank you has to go to Mohammad Amir Hakimi Parsa who helped write the script for this video.

How Lebanon Was Created | History Documentary Hikma History 2024-08-17 | Lebanon today is on the brink of disaster - with its economy failing; its political scene marred by intrigue and corruption, all the while foreign powers meddle in its internal affairs. Many of these issues are rooted in the Mount Lebanon Mutasarrifate era and the subsequent French Mandate. These two periods (1861-1943) combined to bring about the emergence of a modern Lebanese nation-state. Lebanon experienced great changes in this time, both good and bad - with hundreds of thousands moving abroad, not to mention a famine that wiped out a chunk of the population; at the same time, Beirut emerged as an economic hub in the backdrop of a cultural renaissance taking place.

Saddam Hussein Almost Assassinates Iraqi PM #Saddam #middleeasthistory #Iraq Hikma History 2024-07-11 | No sooner had General Qassem taken the reins of power than he too was marked for death. To carry out the deed, the Ba’athists needed a triggerman. A hit squad was formed around Saddam, and meticulous plans were made to carry out the assassination on October 7th 1959 in the capital. But when the big day came, Saddam and his conspirators forgot the carefully choreographed plan and began spraying shots wildly into the street; a short gunfight ensued in which one of the assassins’ was killed, Qassem took a bullet in the shoulder and arm, and young Saddam was shot in the leg.

How Iran Was Forged By Revolution | Middle East Documentary Hikma History 2024-06-09 | In Iran, the Ayatollahs maintain a theocracy with an iron grip; but huge segments of its society wish to see a liberalisation of its society. To understand how Iran could function as a chaotic yet competent state, we have to delve into its 19th and 20th century history, a period in which the country experienced the lowest of lows - famine, civil war and foreign occupation - but also the highest of highs - strong leaders, nation building and of course, oil. In this feature length documentary, I will cover the period through a case study of its 3 major revolutions: the Constitutional Revolution of 1906, Mossadegh’s reforms in 1951 & the Islamic Revolution of 1979. We'll see how a nation was driven to revolutionary action as a result of its leaders’ incompetence and humiliation at the hands of European imperial powers; as well as, how a nation would go from elation at a brighter future to dismay when greed corrupted the exercise of power.

The Greatest Empire Youve Never Heard Of! | Timurid Documentary Hikma History 2024-05-22 | Medieval Islamic history is dominated by Turco-Mongolian dynasties. One of the most impactful of these was the Timurids. Named after its ferocious and legendary founder Timur, who would take his armies across Central Asia, Persia, India, Russia and the Middle East - vanquishing anybody that stood in his way. In the wake of his death in 1405, his successors fought over the scraps of empire, leading to its political decline over the next century. Despite this, Timurid cities such as Herat and Samarkand retained its place as centres of learning and art, inaugurating a period referred to as the Timurid Renaissance. At the same time as civil wars between family members were destroying the territorial integrity of the realm, incredible buildings were being constructed and leading scholars were finding patronage. This is the story of the Timurids. Big thank you to Nomads & Empires Podcast for his help with the script.

Is The West A Threat To Islam? | Islamic Modernism Documentary Hikma History 2024-04-16 | By the latter half of the 19th century, European imperialism penetrated nearly every institution in the Muslim world. From their palaces and armies, to their schools and hospitals. This overwhelming European presence sought to dismantle the central role Islam played in shaping Muslim society. European empires, though Christian, were becoming increasingly fervent advocates of secularism; believing that religion should become absent from public life. Many Muslims vehemently rejected this. But with the West growing in power and influence, many Muslim thinkers and leaders began to adopt Western ideals in the hopes that maybe they could better instrumentalise their religion to an ever modernizing milieu. Other Muslim scholars, however, thought that these ‘reformist’ Muslims were straying away from their religion and becoming too close to the teachings and politics of the colonizers.

Can Islam Be Modernised? Hikma History 2024-04-05 | In the 19th century Muslim societies experienced an existential crisis. Before their very eyes they were witnessing their governments falling behind European powers. In this period, intellectuals across the Middle East grappled with ideas on how to reverse the seemingly terminal decline of their civilization. One of the most important and contested themes was the notion of modernity. It wasn’t hard to see that Europe’s obsession with modernizing had played a key role in socio-political advancements. But in an area where Islam reigns supreme, reconciling with the idea of modernity was always going to be tricky. These ideas would spark an intellectual debate that would forever impact the Muslim world as they would ask themselves if their religion of Islam was compatible with modernity.Big thank you to @sultanskinny for his help with the script.

Nader Shah - The Shepherd Who Became Emperor | History Documentary Hikma History 2024-03-26 | In 1698, a child was born in the mountainous regions of North Khorasan. Despite the fact that he came from no royal lineage—his father was a mere shepherd—he would one day become the last of the Asiatic world-conquerors, in the vein of Timur and Chinggis Khan. The boy’s name was Nadr-Qoli, meaning “servant of the wonderous one (God)”. There was nothing about Nadr-Qoli’s circumstances which marked him out for greatness. His ancestry was undistinguished, his place of birth remote, and his social connection were unremarkable. The collapse of the Safavid Empire, however, would provide the opening that a young ambitious man required. With Persia being overrun by the Hotaks, Nader took charge of the fight back, expelling the Afghans from the country. From there he established the Afsharid Dynasty and declared his mission to conquer lands in all directions. In the process, he became Asia’s Last Great Conqueror.Big thank you has to go to Mohammad Amir Hakimi Parsa who helped write the script for this video.

However, one of the exceptions to this usually correct story is the Zand Dynasty, who ruled much of Iran for a brief period during the second half of the 18th century. Their rule started off strong on the back of their founder, rising as the premier Iranian based Empire of their day, but soon their courts were filled with the blood of kin slaying in contest for the throne. This interfamily feud would eventually see, their painful fall from grace. So, how did the Kurds abandon the sidelines of the Zagros Mountains to become game changers in the turbulent world of 18th century Iranian politics?FREE NEWSLETTER:https://mailchi.mp/a69f93be6c66/hikma-history-newsletter- Become a Patron for as little as a dollar a month to vote on upcoming and keep the movement going! patreon.com/user?u=12397811Massive thank you to our Patreons:ElmanTheBactrianGamblerPreston PAdamMohammadAreebAwaisOmar Farid Ibrahim Ari Joshua HaseebNahidAmirMahmoud JoelCoreBard- Join our social media community:Twitter:twitter.com/HikmaHistoryInstagram:instagram.com/hikmahistoryFacebook:facebook.com/HikmaHistoryFacebook group:https://www.facebook.com/groups/hikma...#iranhistory #kurds #persianhistory Images Used:Music Used:Doug Maxwell - Arabian Nightfall (Sting): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3bRzD...

In the 18th century there were a few separate occasions where they focused on state-building as well. The Durrani's, under the leadership of Ahmad Shah, built their own empire from the malaise of Nader Shah's death in 1747. The Durrani Empire set a strong early precedent of launching invasions of India in order to gain loot that could be used to enrich their empire. In the process, the foundation was set for the modern nation-state of Afghanistan. Nevertheless, the fragile infrastructure of the Durrani Empire condemned it to come crashing down within 50 years of Ahmad Shah’s death.

Is Islam Compatible With The West? | History Documentary Hikma History 2024-01-27 | 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.Big thank you to @sultanskinny for his help with the script.

How The Ottomans Became So Powerful | History Documentary Hikma History 2024-01-17 | At the start of the 14th century, the political landscape of Anatolia was comprised of a mosaic of small principalities, referred to as beyliks. Out of all of these, the most unlikely candidate, the beylik of Osman, situated in the hinterlands of northwestern Anatolia, was the one that asserted its dominance above all the others. Within less than 100 yrs, it metamorphosed in a power whose reach spanned both Asia and Europe. So just how did the smallest beylik, situated on the frontier with the Byzantine Empire, go on to assert itself as the most dominant beylik in Anatolia and even conquer much of the Balkans?

But the Western interests he cut out were never going to just accept this. So the British and Americans set about to undermine Mossadegh and re-establish the old status quo in Operation Ajax. The subsequent blowback from the 1953 Coup made America deeply unpopular with wide segments of Iranian society; and consequently established a reputation of the USA to be untrustworthy, tyrannical and dangerous throughout various Middle Eastern societies as they saw their own nations fall prey to America’s aggressive foreign policy in the Cold War milieu.

Why Saddam Hussein Invaded Kuwait | Gulf War Documentary Hikma History 2023-11-10 | The Middle East is one of the most important regions for U.S foreign policy - mainly due to the area's abundant supply of oil. The US has shown itself greedily willing to involve itself in the area if it can benefit their oil interests. The Gulf War is perhaps the best example of this. In 1990, Saddam Hussein’s Iraq invaded its small but oil-rich neighbor Kuwait - thereby becoming the benefactor of 1/5th of the world’s oil supply. This sent policymakers in Washington D.C. into a panic. What followed was the manifestation of America becoming the sole superpower in the world. Massive shoutout to Zach from Conflicted.

How The Ayatollahs Came To Dominate Iran | Middle East Documentary Hikma History 2023-10-23 | Iran's historical grandeur failed to translate in the modern period, due to European imperialism and incompetent rule. Thus forcing different elements of society to make their discontent known. Amongst these, the Ulama were often the leading force. This was especially true in the Islamic revolution of 1979, as different ideologies and groups banded together to topple the Shah and institute a more just and fair system that was rooted somewhat in democratic ideals. After the Shah’s deposition in January 1979, many of the revolutionaries watched in horror as Ayatollah Khomeini stole their dreams by forcefully establishing a theocratic state.

How Ataturk Created Turkey | History Documentary Hikma History 2023-09-01 | Ataturk - the man whose very name invokes strong mixed opinions. Some view him as a hero who forged a nation, whilst others see him as a traitor who sold out his culture and religion. Born at a time when the Ottomans were desperately clinging on to their survival, he would go on to fight for the Sultan in numerous conflicts including WWI. But from 1918 onwards, as he saw his homeland being partitioned by multiple powers, he positioned himself as a revolutionary nationalist leader. Against all odds he led the Turkish National Movement to victory and forged Turkey, a new nation that was born from the ashes of the Ottoman Empire. During his presidency, he would give the Turkish republic a brand new identity; one that saw it pivot away from its Middle Eastern Islamic roots to one that embraced Modernisation and western ideals.
