Being a Muslim , I find many common grounds between Muslims and Jews. I pray that they live in peace side by side fore ever. Thanks for the very informative lecture and wish that other Muslims listen to them to appreciate the content and to get enlightened. God bless you.
Free your heart from hate - I loved to hear from a Muslim who is interested in knowledge and friendship. Art I do not know is you are a muslim or a christian - But man - give up on your hate @Art clover
@@tvmystery261 Seriously - ALL religions build upon the cultures and religions of the past . Judaism has many elements of other near eastern cultures and Christianity uses lots of Jewish ideas and in fact steals half of its bible from the Jews and yes Islam is clearly a result of Judaism, christianity and of the local pagan culture - SO?
As a person with common sense proven history which is in doubt about the authenticity of both religions let alone Christianity but you can bring that in as well all being based on Sumerian Greek ancient Egypt adopting Pagan religions practices which they've all done to get more convert to appease a population 2 conversion all making a mockery have their own beliefs and not following such changing Doctrine as they go to fit their needs if it was so absolute none of the above would be appropriate or need it but I have only one wish all three of them would just go away all responsible combined for a belief in superiority 99 percent evolved Wars and genocides level one with sexual perversions they're all a little crazy when it comes to that it's just sickening stuff they do can anybody with a moral aptitude would never accept their ways into their life it would not have to be scared into doing moral and just things in their life with the threat of damnation to hold them accountable because all three offer forgiveness for such hideous actions religion is for the feeble-minded weak in morals and restraint but I must say I can't wait till Santa Claus comes the Easter Bunny hops down the trail free presents and chocolate that's my moral weakness candy I guess you got to believe in something or you'll fall for anything and what something to fall for something that has a track record of control an evil Deeds all in the name of God sorry folks it's all buncha man-made criteria to control the masses and govern them
I have a great story to tell. After my dad passed away, I started looking into his family. Turns out thru him, I'm a descendant of Catarina de Orta, sister of Garcia De Orta. They were expelled from Spain in 1942 then took refugee in Portugal where they were forcibly converted by decree in 1497. The de Orta family then moved to Goa, India. García de Orta was a fabulous doctor and served viceroys and sultans, and died before the Inquisition got him in 1568... His sister and my ancestor was not and she was burned for Judaism in 1525. After that the family left to Amsterdam where they could practice their religion. From there to the Caribbean, Curacao, Venezuela, Colombia where I'm from. Is all documents. Crazy history!
Thank you for all of your wonderful lectures. All of my four surnames are Sephardic and my family left Spain for the New World back in the 18th century yet my mothers family still retains many Jewish customs, such as cooking latkes (my favorite) , resting on Saturdays instead of Sundays and my mother was even fortunate enough to have a job where she had Saturdays off , something that the Jewish bakery she ended up working in let her keep (to be fair, everyone had Saturday off there) and other small traditions that looking back, are Jewish. I am now trying to reclaim my ancestor's beliefs along with my partner. He has lent me some volumes of the Talmud and I'm reading the Tan'ach on my own and pray my Sephardic Siddur. The idea is to convert to Orthodox in the future, Gd willing. Your lectures have been a large part of my journey and I always enjoy watching and learning , and enjoy all the jokes. I laugh out loud, yes even at the Chinese kosher restaurant in 1850s California (Because I'm writing a novel on my hometown's history in SoCal). The history is so well researched and I wish this is the history taught in schools over the very innacurate one I learned back in grade and high school. Thank you once again and Baruch Hashem
Thank you. I cannot understand why the average attention span for your lectures is only 20 minutes. Once I start watching one of them I stay put until the very end. I am going to share this video with Salaam Shalom group (Facebook) because we all need to know that there have been periods of history when Jews and Muslims were able to coexist harmoniously. So if it happened before, surely it can happen again, if we want it to.
Thank you for your excellent lectures. Just to clarify, Dr Abramson misspoke at about the 30 minute mark. It was the Abbasids who overthrew the Umayyad Caliphate in 748-750 CE (he inadvertently switched the two). Abd al Rahman I escaped after the rest of the Umayyad dynastic family were executed and went on to establish his own governorship in al-Andalus.
Sam Vaknin, a sephardic jew, has two lectures which really resonate with some of the key themes of this lecture by Dr. Abramson. "Nationalism vs. Patriotism" and "the narcissism of small differences". I found both lectures and this one to be terribly enlightening. Thank you for your scholarship and the integrity contained therein. Godspeed. ✌️😊
Love your two lectures on this subject so far and plan to attend a few if possible. Your material is well researched and presented in an entertaining format.I am part of a very large Sephardic community here in Brooklyn and there has never been a series taught to cover such a large scope of our history in such an orderly fashion. Hatima Tova.
Excellent Lecture once again. I wish they were longer. Time flies. Its a testament to your brilliant manner and delivery. Appreciate the neutral stance in your lectures. Its a shame many more "learned" men cant shake off their base tribal nature. Keep up the great work. As per the lecture and the comments of many other muslims, its always possible for people of ALL faiths to live with and respect one another and seek the goodness each has to offer.
@@HenryAbramsonPhD Sir you are great and a role model that both of communities should emulate. I wish I had a history teacher a fraction of your abilitiy. Sorry to go on, but your lectures are a great platform where people seeking knowledge can share some thoughts as well. Shame about all the bigoted comments. May Allah / Hashem enlighten our hearts.
Dr. Henry Abramson oh, I am richly blessed by your videos, and am learning a lot. I left the church 10 years ago, and have dedicated myself to the Blessed Holy One, and Judaism, I have been having a great time with the teachings of many rabbis, and now this includes you. I am in a place where I can't convert, because there is no Jewish community, but because of people like you oh, I can learn what I can until HaShem, Baruch Hu, moves me do a Jewish community. Todah Rabbah Dr. Abramson
How nice of you to respond. You are providing a great service. Your lectures are entertaining and informative. I especially enjoy the way you provide a balanced view of the relations of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.
Abd Al-Rahman was a tough and ruthless man because he lived in a time that necessitated his being tough and ruthless in order to survive. Once the Abbasids toppled the Umayyad dynasty, they slaughtered every male Umayyad whom they could lay their hands on. Abd Al-Rahman escaped, fled to his mother's Berber kinfolk in North Africa and from them raised an army. Supported by a few Umayyad stalwarts in Spain, as well, he invaded the peninsula and took possession of what he reguarded as being rightfully his. There was scarcely any opposition to him from the Christians for they had been thoroughly crushed military in the first Umayyad invasion. The last of the Visigothic nobility who remained alive had retreated to the mountain strongholds of the far North. The Jews had supported the Umayyads in 711 and had even betrayed the Visigothic Kingdom by opening the gates of the capital of Toledo to the Arab armies. Their experience with the previous Muslim dynasty had been mostly a positive one, and that left them inclined to favour Abd Al-Rahman. The real threat to his rule was all the rival Arab and Berber Muslims in Spain who constantly staged conspiracies and launched uprisings against him. The Abbasids supported these rebellions and even launched invasions of their own to dispose of Abd Al-Rahman, once and for all. The Abbasids wanted the Umayyads completely eliminated as potential alternative rulers. Despite this turmoil, Abd Al-Rahman fought off all the military attacks of his Muslim enemies, consolidated his rule over Spain, establishing the Emirate of Cordoba--though some texts say that he personally referred to himself as the one true Caliph--and engaged in many building projects of mosques, palaces and public works that enhanced the power and status of his kingdom. He even managed to consolidate his dynasty itself, and--shades of Joseph and the multi-coloured coat here--passed over his elder sons and left the throne of Cordoba to a favoured-and-beloved younger son. His conquest of Spain and his establishment of a strong dynasty there was an impressive accomplishment.
I'm still perplexed by the way Judaism is a religon, but "Jews" claim also to be a race who are entitled to the "promised land". Many Rabbinical Jews are anti-zionists.
David Leahy most Jews have ethnoracial connections due to lack of incoming converts of intermarriage. Anybody can convert to Judaism but the fact is that very few people do (it’s a long tedious process and most of history it was a religion of outcasts, so who would join it willingly?) and therefore most current Jews are ethnically related. Therein explains the religion-race debate. As for modern Israel - like any sovereign nation it can decide its own immigration policy. If it wants to allow Jews to gain citizenship, that’s its prerogative.
@@davidleahy3972 race???? We identify as a nation a culture a tribe. Turks are also a federation of tribes, so are thr chechens, the iranians, the list goes on.
@@dogbert52 The people actually practiced their faith and the Muslims actually understood their religion. Modern Muslims were just as swayed by demagoguery as Western societies and in many ways turned their back on their faith in favor of what they believed to be the progress of "modernity"
Just a small note, since I think you might appreciate knowing this: When an Arabic name starts with "abd", everything after that will usually be one of the names of God, since "abd" means "slave (of)". So when you refer to a person as "Al Rahman (The Most Merciful)", you're referring to him by a name of God. Essentially, it's as if we were to refer to Gabriel as just El. Otherwise: Great lecture! I enjoyed it tremendously!
It is wrong to interpret Allah as God. It is completely different. Mr. abraham please read the qur'an before you compare Islam with Judaism. Islam copied and plagiarized the Torah, new Testament and some Jews fables or legacy. But the way Mohammed lived his life was completely different than the prophets preceded him. He never prophesied anyway. For someone of your caliber shouldn't take Islam before thoroughly read about it. Regardless, I enjoy your lecture
@@HenryAbramsonPhD Mohammad had nothing of his own but copied from Jewish and Christians including names and at times he mixed up stories and dates...albeit language barriers. Unless one has preferred to be politically correct, there is no sign of Muhammad's prophecy.
Santa Cruz is a surname in my linage as well as Iberian in my DNA. I am learning a lot. I am 79 yrs old. Thank you for making this information available.
I am not a Jew, but I like listening to a Rabbi's lecture on the radio. He talks about Jewish religion, and he also talks about life and how to deal with people and events in life.
Thank you very much, I enjoy the lectures and ...your wonderful sense of humor. You have a friend in Maaleh Adumim where you will always be an honored guest. (airport pick up included)
I love history and you're lectures not only fulfill my love of history but help me to learn more of my ancestral journey. Thank you so much for your time, finances and knowledge! B"H!
Thank you very much. I have always wanted to know about the Jewish history of Spain and Portugal. Your talks on the subject has been very enlightening. I'm on the edge of my seat waiting to hear more information on this subject. Thank you very much, God bless you and your family. Alan Abel is my name I'm a black male from Philadelphia Pennsylvania.
I just found your YT Channel and as Sephardic, found fascinating this piece of information in history that feels like you have filled An empty spot in jew history. If I could suggest as topic for lecture about the history of Sephardic Jews migrating to Savannah Georgia during the yellow fever affecting the US in I believe 16th century when Dr. Shmuel (Samuel) Núńez Migrated with 70 something Jewish escaping inquisition and settling in Savannah Georgia after implementing epidemiologic based Healthcare measures of help to control the yellow fever epidemic. Then he founded one of the largest synagogue in the south of the US at that time that still active. I’ll be happy and honored to sponsor it. Thank uou
I came across your lecture while watching and listening to videos on Sephardic music. I am extremely glad that I did as I have learned so much from it. The history of the Jews of the Sepharad is a subject that seems to get overlooked much of the time. It is a history that is both colourful and tragic yet in spite of the many dark times through the centuries it has survived and thrived. Thank you for uploading this and your other lectures--I may require a few more lifetimes to look at all of them but I'll do my best! Steve.
Incredible lecture, very objective and accurate information by Dr. Abramson; as a scholar I congratulate him for this and other wonderful jobs he does.
Hi Dr. Abramson - I have never commented online before - but I just wanted to let you know how much your lectures have been helping me with my studies. Thank you! (and shame on people who type in all caps :) )
السلام عليكم ورحمة الله Salaam, Henry Abrams. I just wanted to say that I enjoy your lectures and I can't fathom why anyone would attack you personally, I literally have never heard you say anything offensive that was your own words and not a quote, it's likely the truth itself that offends people. I see some Christian complaining about the fact that Juda and Islam are more similar to each other than either is to Christianity and can't imagine why they are incapable of understanding the absolute fallacy of the Trinity and attitudes of Paul regarding the Law of Moses that Christianity boasts so much about being free from, as if you can be liberated from the Law of God, are the reasons and that if they happen to renounce their aversion to the Law and denounce the pagan cloak of the Trinity they would have the same similarities they wish they did. I think they believe if they pretend hard enough that Jesus /Isa (as) was named Yeshua and call him by the name of the OT Prophet (as) despite the fact that in any Semitic language they do not share the same name, like in Syriac, that this alone makes them more genuine Christians. Eyes that do not, refuse even, to see what is plainly evident with minimal research to confirm. ישע.
Yusuf G. 🚨CHRISTIANS/ JEWS DO NOT WORSHIP THE SAME GOD AS MUSLIMS, ALLAH IS A PAGAN MOON GOD AL-ILAT. I’ve read the Qu’ran & it’s a highly vague & shallow version of the Bible full of statements & just telling people what to do in these tiny verses for each surah. It literally sounds like a coaching book😂 “”Say this to People of the Scripture”” or “”Say this to disbelievers”” or your gonna burn on the Last day !”. The Quran doesn’t even tell u a linear storyline in chronological order like it does in the Bible of how man came to be, our original sin that lead to the fall of man kind, Christ coming to pay that price for sin which is death so we can be in heaven again with YAHWEH THE TRUE NAME REVEALED BY GOD TO MOSES. Allah has 99 Names in Islam, but guess who also has many many names, Satan, the Old Serpert !! In The Bible God only has ONE NAME & ONE NAME ALONE TO BE REMEMBERED BY THROUGHOUT ALL THE AGES. Exodus 3:14 And God said unto Moses, **I Am That I Am**: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I Am hath sent me unto you. 15 And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, the Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: ****this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations****. Notice how God didn’t say God of Ishmael? Because Ishmael was from the seed of a prostitute which God did not want Abraham to have that’s why he told him to have another child named Isaac who Christ would descend from not Muhammad !! Hmmmmm. This is another of many reasons why this book wasn’t written by the same True God. WHERE IS THE 10 COMMANDMENTS IN THE QURAN? NOWHERE ! IF THE QURAN CAME FROM THE TRUE GOD U THINK HE’D JUST FORGET HIS MOST IMPORTANT COMMANDMENTS? When the Quran talks about the prophets it literally only gives them like one, two sentence n jumps all over the place like the author doesn’t kno how to tell a story!!😂 it’s sooo vague. basically sum repetitive bs like “Allah is most merciful” WE HAVE ENTIRE BOOKS WRITTEN BY THE PROPHETS U CLAIM TO FOLLOW WHICH GIVES US A COMPLETE STORY UNLIKE MUSLIMS. THERES A REASON WHY THE TORAH & GOSPEL ARE ONE BOOK BEING THE HOLY BIBLE. ITS BECAUSE THEY GO HAND IN HAND & TELL THE SAME STORY & PROPHECIES IN THE TORAH WHICH R FULFILLED IN THE GOSPEL BY JESUS CHRIST. The Quran fits nowhere in here. It contradicts the the 2 Holy Books before it confirming each other proving itself to be a counterfeit Holy Book and not the true religion Compare Muhammad’s last words compared to Christ. Muhammad literally cursed Jews & Christians on his deathbed in the Hadith while Christ forgave those who beat,ripped to shreds by Roman whips, mocked, & nailed to cross him to the cross. He said “ Father !! Forgive them.. for they know not what they do !” ISLAM LITERALLY SPREAD BY THE SWORD AND WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE BIGGEST AND LONGEST SLAVE TRADE IN HISTORY THAT LASTED 1400 YEARS . The reason u guys are muslim is because ur country was conquered n was forced to convert to Islam or pay the jizayah !! Which was “protection tax” or else the Muslims wud cut ur head off. Surah 9:29 “Fight those who do not believe in Allah or in the Last Day and who do not consider unlawful what Allah and His Messenger have made unlawful and who do not adopt the religion of truth from those who were given the Scripture - [fight] until they give the jizyah willingly while they are humbled” Surah 9:5 “And when the sacred months have passed, then kill the polytheists wherever you find them and capture them and besiege them and sit in wait for them at every place of ambush. But if they should repent, establish prayer, and give zakah, let them [go] on their way. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful” ^ peaceful God u got there guys😂 ISIS & all terrorist follow the Quran better then anybody in the western world. They’re doing exactly what Muhammad did in his time. BUT WHAT DID CHRIST SAY? Matthew 5:43- 46 43 “Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. 44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; 45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. 46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? CHRISTIANS WERE PERSECUTED FOR OVER 300 YEARS N NEVER ROSE THE SWORD LIKE MUHAMMAD, HIS FOLLOWERS & THE OTTOMAN CALIPHATE THAT CAME OUT IF IT OR FORCED CONVERSIONS. I’ve read the Quran brother now it’s time for u to read The Bible ! Christ said no one comes to the Father except by through him ! He said he is the Alpha & the Omega, the First & The Last, what began with me shall end with me !!
@@YouhavetoBelieve3347 are you seriously on the muslims forced conversion narrative? Jeez dude! How comes the muslim world is religious diverse while Europe is not? Crusades lol! Push the narrative of the oneness of judeo-christian if you fancy. Muslims don't, facts don't.
I grew up in a very Christian town in the US, I've never met a Jewish person in real life (that I know of) and have only met 1 Muslim about a week after the 9/11 attack in 4th grade. I've never considered myself Christian but the idea of the Trinity and a few other things have always drawn me closer to identifying with Judaism and Islam. Like the Christians are interpereting scripture wrong or something. I'd like to learn more about them but again I'm from a very Christian part of the US.
Great video series. I’m really enjoying. Quick question though. Have you done similar about Baghdadi Jews? I can’t seem to find anything on your channel.
Also you said visagoths did not really make it too difficulty on the Jews until the visgothics converted to Catholicism. So please be clearer. So in this one you say the Jews were happy to get rid of visagoths because they treated the Jews so poorly. Which one is it. Frustrating
I'm fascinated by Judaism and Jews in general. Can you do a talk on temple Judaism (Judaism before rabbis)??? What was that like and how was it different???
From receiving the Torah at Sinai there were always "Rabbi's". They were known then as prophets. Moshe was the firs one. Malachi was the last one. They filled the same role as the Rabbi's from Shimon Hatzadik on down till today.
@@HenryAbramsonPhD Blessings and thankful I found your lectures. I want to formally convert and make Aliyah. I was born in Mexico, now US citizen living in SoCal. Shalom🇮🇱💙
You should read Deuteronomy chapter 28 and Isaiah chapter 6 before getting too involved with Judaism. Make sure you use a real Bible and not any of the fake versions published after 1850. The 1611 King James is the most reliable.
If the average attention span is 20 minutes, mine for a 1 hour lecture by Henry Abramson is 2 hours! (I listen twice to the same video because it's totally fascinating!)
@@HenryAbramsonPhD Excellent material, and excellent content, and with that ease of explaining everything kinda like if you were in the classroom interacting. Thank you, Dr. Abramson
The one difference between Jews under Islamic rule than under Christian rule is that Jews and Muslims do not have a racial conflict as in both communties, particularlly among Jews native to the middle east are seen to be as from the same genetic background and thus same race so the conflict is religious by in large.
Good lecture but, a tiny correction is due: Zyriab, the musician who came from Baghdad to teach etiquette at the Andalusian court, was Ali Ibn Nafi, who was a Muslim, not a Jew.
The conquest of early muslims(campanions of prophet muhammad) were a big mircale in the history of humans. There was no match between them , but they won every battle they fought.
A good book on the relationship between Muslims, Jews, and Christians in medieval Spain is 'Ornament of the World' by historian Maria Rosa Menocal. Published by Back Bay Books (2002).
Thank you for a wonderful lecture on sephardic history. I'm very interested in this topic but I have many questions about our ancestors relationship within the society of Judaism.
Hello, in one section of this lecture you mentioned that some Christian Monks were "committing suicide" by speaking out against Mohammed at Islamic mosques. I was curious as to why you used that terminology because protesting against Mohammed and being killed for it is technically murder, not suicide (as far as I know). Even if the monks knew they would be killed for their actions it seems to be martyrdom and not suicide. Also, I wanted to know where this type of "killing" of protesters was committed by other religious sects and considered a form of "suicide" and not murder throughout history. I also was confused when you said Islam is more closely aligned with Judaism than Christianity. How can this be? The Torah and the Old Testament are almost identical. The Koran and Mohammed are not mentioned in the Torah / Old Testament whatsoever. The advent of the Islamic faith came much later than both Judaism and 600 years after Christianity. For the record, I have no dog in the fight. I am a Jew interested in theology/history and was curious as to why you believe this. Thanks in advance.
Maybe he was saying Judaism is more closely aligned with Islam because of the Persian and Babylonian captivity and the use of the Babylonian talmud amongst the Ashkenazi Jews or Kazarian
I'm not sure we can identify Natronai Ibn Habibai with the Sephardi... He came to Narbonne (France) and according to Abraham ibn Daud on the invitation of a Frankish king! Abraham I read wrote "He and his descendants were close [inter-related] with the King (Carolus) and all his descendants" if this is true I find it incredible. As always It was a real pleasure to listen to your lecture! Thank you
As a Muslim, I'm amazed that the Jews reached their peak during the Muslim civilization in the Iberian peninsula. I hope we can live like this in the Modern era. Shalom aleichem to Abramson and all my Jewish brothers.
Aleikum salaam! Although the Golden Age of Spain was pretty amazing, I wouldn't necessarily call it the "peak"--I'd like to think that's still in the future. Glad you enjoyed the video!
There's a serious bias against Christians in this lecture. Such unabashed propaganda and revisionist history turns an otherwise talented speaker into a zealot.
the history of Christianity has been one of intolerance, once which I can not understand because its early history doesn't show that intolerance (at least the followers who knew Jesus or after his death. St. Paul is another story) . Dr Henry Abramson did an excellent job in this lecture on uncovering where the intolerance came from. Pity because Jesus has a good message. Too bad his followers don't listen.

Great to see this as most of my countries background link to it but checking DNA there must of been similar event as the Sephardic Jewish event , the same way but earlier which they become the Moroccan Jews from the first temple was being demolished. As I have found matches from DNA that are slightly different from both periods
i asked my father during the ottoman invasion of albania if the ottomans forced the albanians to convert to islam...apparently they did not force islam as such but made it hard for a non muslim compared to albanians who converted to islam. taxes for non muslims and favouritism towards muslims forced albanians to convert to islam. there are minimal remnants of history pertaining to judaism within albania. i wonder if you have any historical material with regards to judaic diaspora into albania? i have enjoyed your lectures thank you
Hi! I'm from Mexico City, I'm a Syrian jew, I know my origins are sepharadic, wish you can enlighten me in how we got to Syria. I loved your lectures I've seen the first two and looking forward for the rest. You are a natural. Thanks a lot for this priceless contribution.
@@rickcroucher yeah you should no problem but I thought he was going to give you a list of sources or books and materials but instead he only referred you to his website lol sand a little insensitive but but hey
@@HenryAbramsonPhD yes it's but try our professor to activate usually captions so I can understand more the history of Jewish and I will explain it to my friends in Arabic .
As a non Jew It was very interesting. As a New Yorker I need to keep my knowledge about Jewish culture. My main interest was the slave trade in the Middle Ages and the Jewish involvement in that.
I think most peoples of the world has had individuals that practiced slavery of some sort for most of history. Luckily we've been doing away with that - especially as we have learned how dumb it is to be a collectivist - i.e. generalizing about entire large groups of people we have never actually met or interacted with. Cheers!
They were the main go between the christian & muslim world and this includes the slave trade. For their small numbers they were vastly overrepresented in the slave trade, nevertheless their small numbers meant that they would never exceed the slaves captured by muslims or christians.
You don't disappoint!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you Dr. Abramson for your very interesting lectures. Your English is relatively easy for us, aliens 😉, and everything is clearly understood. Could you add captions? That way someone could translate your work into Hebrew and other languages? Thank you very much and Greetings from Israel 🇮🇱
Your account of how AbdelRahman became Amir of AlAndalus is incorrect, also the account of the Abbasid revolution. You seem to mix up the names. The Abbasids revolted against the Umayyads, and slaughtered all except AbdelRahman who escaped from Damascus and into Muslim Spain.

Hearing about the exilarch and "king of the Jews" status some were given, it makes me wonder what the Greek in the Christian new testament says when the English translation says Jesus was called "king of the Jews" by the Roman governor of the region before being killed. It also may be a lie to claim he was the exilarch, but since I think the exilarch or nasi is actually named in the new testament, I think it's Jesus vying for power to riot against him
