    CORRECTION: this is Arabia before the return of Islam. We believe that Islam existed since the prophet Adam, and that prophet Abraham preached it to his sons (Ishmael and isaac). The arabs were originally Muslims, until centuries later they became corrupted with paganism, then prophet Muhammad came and redirected the kaaba to the worship of the God, and made Arabia Muslim again. The reason why the kaaba was important in polytheistic Arabia, is because the arabs after the corruption, they mixed paganism with the religion of Abraham, they even did the same practices but in a different ungodly way. Also, the Arabs before the return of Islam thought that Allah is the supreme deity, the didn't have any idols of him, and they thought THAT Allah has daughters, which are the idols that were in mecca and inside the kaaba.

    @@jithinjoshy7079 obviously you do not. The three virtues of the Arab warrior were bravery, generosity and poetry. these values remain important today, especially in the Bedouin communities. The greatest warriors were also poets, We even had female warriors (before and after Islam) and female poets. Poetry is still important for us today, knowing its value to our history. In every tribe, there were one or two scribes that could read and write. Everyone else memorized. In those days they spoke in poetry. Major and minor events were described in a poem. A battle, a love story (yes there were plenty of those) an argument etc. and once a poem was recited everyone memorized it and they would rush to the scribe to write it down. The poems were taught to children generation after generation and inscribed on scrolls and later on books and sometimes stone. This is how we know of our battles, history, love stories, relationships between historical figures, traditions and so on. We know the entire story of Antarah Ibn Chaddad, one of my favorite poets, because he would even recite poems in the battlefield, thinking of his love while fighting, that he missed her so much and longed for her that for a moment he forgot himself and wished to kiss the sword of his enemy (which was covered in his blood) thinking it was his wife, for it shone so brightly under the sun that it reminded him of her teeth and how beautiful her smile was when she laughed. We know how he died, because of the last poem he recited knowing he would die. We know his enemies respected him and declared him victorious and noble even in death, and they buried him as they would their own heroes, through their poetry. Even in the royal courts later on, a ruler could not have a complete court without poets to record their moments of glory. Even in the marketplace, there were poetry battles, the same way rap battles are done. The poetry of those times, the complexity of the Arabic language, influenced our future poetry, our music, our literature, our cultures and the culture of poetry and style of it spread to all arab speaking countries. When Islam came, it spread even more. There are 7 of the most important pre Islamic poems that were hung in Mecca, called the Mu’allaqat, the hanging poems. Your ignorance, arrogance is typical and speaks volumes of your lack of culture. We study your history as well as ours. You only study yours and think nothing else existed.

    Sadly, they accused the prophet [Peace and blessings of Allah be upon him] of poetry and the Quran being poems. However, Allah the Most High completely destroyed this claim in the chapter called Al-Shu’ara (meaning the poets). Poets were their intellectuals, entertainers and their source of cultural identity. Much like our celebrities today. Why did people aim to be poets (celebrities)? Money, fame and power. When they’re not earning these things, what do they do? Give up. However, Allah constantly mentioned in that Surah (chapter) how the prophets that came before prophet Muhammad never asked for money, had virtually no followers, and were persecuted. So the exact opposite of why people became poets happened to them, so did they give up? Nope. They kept at it until Allah ordered for their nation to be destroyed. Also, poets always want to keep things fresh. They don’t want to recycle yesterday’s garbage especially if it was unpopular, but the prophets kept at with the call to Monotheism no matter how much hatred it got. Every prophet came with the exact same message of tawheed.

They are mentioned by the Akkadians, in the medival Islamic conquests, and by travellers/government reports recently as the 1940s, which would make them arguably one of the oldest (hopefully) surviving groups in human history!

    First of all, kudos to you guys for choosing this specific and somewhat controversial topic. In my opinion, there are some problems with the video. For example, the impact of Christianity on Pre-Islamic Arabia is considerably more than we expected, as well-known scholars like Ahamd Al-Jalad showed in their research on pre-Islamic languages and religions. Second, you have underestimated the impact Lakhmid and Ghassanid had over the fate of Islam, Sassanids and Byzantines. First, many battles between Sassanians and Romans were fought due to the raids done by one of these vassal states. Moreover, They become very important in the early period of Islam as many either fought for and against Islam. For example, in case of Lakhmids, due to the annexation of their land by Khosrow II, persecution and high taxes at the end of the last Sassanid-Roman war, many joined Muslim army willingly and provided the necessary information for the conquest of Sassanid Iraq and later the whole Sassanian Iran. At the end, the rivalry between these two kingdom passes on to their successors as the war between Umayyad and Abbasids to some extent was the war between Arab tribes in Mesopotamia and Levant, just like Lakhmids and Ghassanids.

    10:32 I can believe this as judging from the sources the pre-Islamic Arabs were almost as cosmopolitan in their approach to religion as the Romans were for probably the same reason: wealth and power. The more gods stored in the Kaaba, the greater the number of pilgrims and the more prosperous the trade. The Quraysh were, above all, incredibly shrewd businessmen.

    it had been around for hundreds of years, christianity...it was almost 700 years old when islam was invented. and it was basically invented in that geographical area. thats why Islam constantly references judaism/christianity because it Islam was a mysterious infant in a world where the other 2 religions were basically famous..the Quaran constantly glorifies those 2 religions as well, but insists that it succeeds where they failed. The Quaran is essentially the answer to the "false" christian/judaism, and wanted their adherents to join Islam. eastern roman empire had 700 years to christian-ize that part of the world and it was the state religion.

    Yes, I agree. All I know about Ethiopian history is that their kings are said to be desedants of king Solomon, the Eithiopian- Italian war and it was where a few muslims fled to during the first hegira (migration). Seeing a video about them would be incredible.

    Not related to the comment but the Arabs were monotheistic ( Hanifs ) for about 2000 years and were on the religion of Prophet Ibrahim Peace be upon him from His descendants from Ismael Peace be upon him aka ( Arabs ) Were Hanifs aka ( Monotheists ) with the passage of time estimates say ( 2000 ) years while paganism only lasted for about 350 years or less, however, people in Arabia started to deviate from this core belief and then during the time of a person named Amru Ibn Luhay Al-Khuza’aī of Makkah, things took a turn for the worse. Amru was the chief of the Khuza’a tribe and he also was the governor of Makkah, He used to visit Syria frequently for business and trade. During his trips, he noticed people worshiping idols as a means to reach Allah. He didn’t see this as inappropriate and on his way back brought an idol named Hubal and placed it in the middle of Kaaba in Makkah. Accordingly, he started worshiping it and instructed his tribesmen to do the same. This eventually turned into a full fledged practice that spread all over Arabia and beyond (due to the influence of his tribe and them being in Makkah.) Eventually, this led to more prominent idols spread all over Arabia with one named Al-Laat in the area of the present city of Taif, Al-Uzza in the valley of Nakhlah, and so on. And it is also said that Amru Ibn Luhay Al-Khuza’aī has dug up old idols ( Wadd, Suwa‘, Yaguth, Ya‘uk and Nasra ) from the times of Prophet Noah peace be upon him that are also mentioned in the Quran. Eventually, as time passed, idols made their way in most people’s homes and other places of worship and thus the practice was completely rooted in people’s daily lives when Prophet Muhammad Peace be upon him, was born. Paganism spread all over Makkah and, thence, to Hijaz, people of Makkah being custodians of not only the Sacred House but the whole Haram as well. A lot of idols, bearing different names, were introduced into the area. Later on they were destroyed and Tawhid was established. Hoped this helped guys 👍.

Regarding Mohammed marrying 10 years old girl I challenge you to give me one single man accused Mohammed in marrying 10 years old girl prior the 19th century. You know why you can’t find any? because it was very normal at this age being married. Do you know how old Marry when she gave birth to Christ?? she was 12 and nobody talked about that. I mean that 10 years old girl later she said my happiest days when I Mohammed was alive. I know this has 2% to change your mind but I see hatred inside you. so this for anyone who sees this comment.

    @@Edward-bm7vw no lol? One can not see the importance of islam without comparing it to the period before. We muslims always study pre-islamic arabia before islamic history itself. For most muslims this video doesn't teach us anything new. It's just yall who are ignorant in both pre and post islamic history. Seethe.

    I thought there would be more about Yemen and south Arabia in general since there is thousands of inscriptions, stories(Sheba and Suliman), archeticture, and many wars between its kingdoms and Aksum.

    There aren't much inscriptions about it but it was an important kingdom, the same goes for what is now Oman and Bahrain but I think he was concerned about peninsula Bedouin Arabs The Yemeni kingdoms need a video of their own
