take
note: the
purpose of hosting these movies is not to disregard the fatwas of those
scholars who disallow the making, showing or watching of movies. The
purpose is just to undersatnd Islamophobia through a movie, and to try
to explore strategies to face these challenges of the modern times.
Using this
medium may not be suitable for those who are comfortable using
alternative media (books, audios, contact classes, etc. which are more
preferable) to become wiser. It suits those who feel
uncomfortable reading books, listening to audios or attending lectures,
classes, etc.
About this
documentary film: The documentary is
titled "When the Moors Ruled in Europe"
Join British historian Bettany Hughes as she
examines a long-buried chapter of European history–the rise and fall of
Islamic culture in what is now Spain and Portugal.
Although generations of Spanish rulers have
tried to expunge this era from the historical record, recent archeology
and scholarship now shed fresh light on the Moors who flourished in
Al-Andalus for more than 700 years.
This fascinating documentary explodes old
stereotypes and offers shocking new insights. You’ll discover the
ingenious mathematics behind Granada’s dazzling Alhambra Palace, trace
El Cid’s lineage to his Moorish roots, and learn how the Iberian
population willingly converted to Islam in droves.
Through interviews with noted scholars,
you’ll see how Moorish advances in mathematics, astronomy, art, and
agriculture helped propel the West out of the Dark Ages and into the
Renaissance. What emerges is a richly detailed portrait of a sensuous,
inquisitive, and remarkably progressive Islamic culture in Christian
Europe.
This
is a fascinating third party documentary of rise and fall of Islam in
Spain. The era of Islam is presented as the possibly the best thing
that ever happened to Europe, and the Crusade was perhaps the worst
thing. The wiping of Islamic history from the European history books is
a grave mistake.

Do
not revile my Companions

[Sahih
Muslim : Book 31 Kitab
Al-Fada'il Al-Sahabah, Number 6167]
Abu Huraira
(Radi
Allah Anhu) reported Allah's Messenger (may
peace be upon him) as saying: Do not revile my Companions, do not
revile my Companions. By Him in Whose Hand is my life, if one amongst
you would have spent as much gold as Uhud it would not amount to as
much as one much on behalf of one of them or half of it.
[Sahih
Muslim : Book 31 Kitab Al-Fada'il Al-Sahabah, Number 6168]
Abu Sa'id (Radi Allah Anhu) reported there was some altercation
between Khalid b. Walid
(Radi
Allah Anhu) and Abd al-Rahman b. 'Auf
(Radi
Allah Anhu) and Khalid (Radi Allah Anhu) reviled him. Thereupon Allah's
Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: None should revile my
Companions. for if one amongst you were to spend as much gold as Uhud,
it would not amount to as much as one mudd of one of them or half of it.
