Why not ask "what happened to the Christians when the Arabs invaded 700 years earlier?" The Christians either fled, died, converted to Islam, or lived as a despised minority. Like the Indigenous people of Egypt... the Coptic Christians, who still speak the language of the pharaohs.

That's a plain lie Arabs were a minority in Egypt Egyptians didn't wanna speak Persian, Latin or Greek despite these nations conquering them for long time. But with how nice thr Arabs were to them and how much they loved Arabic language, they decided to learn it. Look at Persia, they weren't forced to learn Arabic and they kept their language alive till this day. Please stop lying, no one forced anyone in Egypt as you claiming, the people themselves wanted to change. Just like the Greeks wanted to abandon their Gods and convert to Orthodoxy. Edit: a reply to all the propaganda The total population of Egypt back then is between 8-10 millions The total Army Arabs had to conquer Egypt from the Romans was around 12-20 thousands. This small amount alone is not enough to force an entire population of Egyptians to change their language to accomodate their rulers. In fact it took Egyptians generations which is around 200-300 years for them to fully change to Arabic/Egyptian dialect. This fact alone tells us that the people themselves wanted this change, no one forced them to abandon their language and religion. Whoever stayed loyal to their traditions are still alive till this day 10% of Egypt's population stayed on the Coptic Orthodox Christianity and they are still freely practicing their religion. If the Arabs were cruel blood thirsty sand warriors then non of them would had survived till this very day and they would have gone extinct like the Pharos have gone.

Spanish, Portuguese, and most importantly, the Christian golden age, with the defeat of the Byzantines being avenged. [EDIT] I'm convinced that people here will never miss the opportunity to spread misinformation. I literally have to quote basic history here. Spain's Golden Age, or Siglo de Oro, was a period of literary and artistic achievement that lasted from 1492 to 1659. The Golden Age also saw the rise of Spain as a powerful empire through conquest, marriage alliances, and war. The Golden Age began in 1492 with the end of the Reconquista, the voyages of Christopher Columbus to the New World, and the publication of Antonio de Nebrija's Grammar of the Castilian Language. The Golden Age also saw the rise of famed figures such as Columbus, Velázquez, and Cervantes. Spain's world empire reached its greatest territorial extent in the late 18th century, but it was under the Habsburg dynasty in the 16th and 17th centuries. Spain had a true golden age after the Reconquista, as you can see here.

Claiming to uphold Christian values? Have you ever explored the history of Spain? It was the influence of Islam that catalyzed the Renaissance in the first place. Following the Muslim defeat at the Battle of Tours, Europes civilization stagnated for 250 years. While Muslims constructed hospitals, universities, and magnificent architectural marvels, much of Europe's population worshipped stick figures idols in wooded areas with blue painted faces living like savages. You seem to lack a genuine understanding of the rich history of the Islamic caliphate in Spain, Portugal, and parts of France. I suggest taking heed of King Charles's remarks regarding Muslims in Spain. Yes, there are indeed numerous issues within Islamic countries today. But have you ever considered who instigated these problems and who initiated the invasions? Name 1 Muslim country that invaded a Christian country in the last 50 years. Wake up!

@@funvidz4you405 First of all, Christians made hospitals first in 369 AD😂 Sure, Islam contributed somewhat to the Renaissance and built a university, I will give credit where it is due. Also, Christianiy didn't "invade" Spain when it was an Islamic caliphate, it was a re-conquering because Islam had invades it prior to the crusades against it. If I could name any Muslim country that Invaded a Christian country in the last 50 years, I'd say Azerbaijan into Armenia, the first country that adopted Christianity. Strangely, the world doesn't want to talk about that ethnic cleansing but Palestine only. Have you also noticed the increase of Muslims moving to Western Chrisitan nations and trying to establish Sharia Law?

Nobody flips the script when it comes to mesoamericans - I don't know what herb you're smoking.. The reason why the Muslims of Al-Andalus are considered to be invaders in history is because they acted like invaders. Non-Muslims were literally considered second-class citizens just like the Irish were in British Ireland (which lasted almost 800 years and is considered an occupation, and still technically is when looking at Northern Ireland). In the end, it was called the Reconquista and not the Conquista. Get a clue.

Did they tell you about when the Muslims also kicked the Jews out? Jews were given usury jobs, or things that dealt iwh money because it’s not haram or whatever. Same thing Christian’s did with Jews in Europe, gave them the jobs they didn’t want or weren’t really supposed to do as people of their faith. Muslims protected Jews as long as they paid their Jew tax, otherwise they would either be murdered, imprisoned, enslaved, or forced to convert. Jews also rose to prominent positions in Christian places, despite the anti semetism - same in Muslim Spain. Also Jews enjoyed more freedoms under Roman rule than they did Christian or Muslim

Those Muslims were more locals than the Catholics, but you can never reason with Christian fanatics. Edit: It seems like some people are so blinded by hate that they are just unaware of a few facts: The christians that were in Spain before Islam were Arian Christians, which are heretical according to all mainstream branches of Christianity. Those same christians by the way were visigoths that invaded the peninsula in the 5th century. They did later convert to Catholicism but not quite, they made countless councils to deal with religious problems and their hate for Jews. Then the Muslims came, after, maybe let’s be generous and let’s say, 200 years of catholic Christianity. The Muslims ruled for 700 years, which made them local and then the Catholics came back with the aid from other Catholics tryna claim the land. 😂🫠🫠funny ain’t it?

It is also said that these men came back to Iberia to establish a "Templar" state, and voilá, a few years later Portugal became a Kingdom, with a LOT of help from the Templars. While Afonso Henriques (our first King) might not have been a Templar, it is widdelly known that he spent the majority of his life with deep connections to the order, including all his best knights and friends, he was groomed by the Templars to be King. This bound was kept for centuries. In fact, 1/3 of all the land that Portugal reconquered from the muslims was given to the Templar order. Portugal was one of the most important Templar strongholds in the world and the last to stand.
Before the Muslims made hispania their home, there were already people there, small kingdoms and civil states that were conjured by the Muslims.

Smartest comment in the comment section, Muslims want their religion worldwide, so in their mind everyone goes to jannah and is saved, but then villainise pretty much every Christian for wanting the same. Empires like the British, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, Etc are seen as extremely disgraceful, while the caliphates, Omani empire and Ottoman Empire practised slavery much later and earlier then these empires, didn’t have any sort of reform at all. Slavery in Oman was abolished in 1970, and it’s still practised legally in Mauritania and Illegally in Libya and Yemen, with slave markets on KZread for us to watch (KZread has thankfully taken them down) . All of these countries are Arab/Berber Muslim Ones.

A few points to cover here: 1. Most population in Al-Ándalus were the original hispano-roman population from earlier centuries, the arab-bereber contingents weren't that numerous to represent a change in the ethnic . Although most of the hispano-roman population and visigoth nobles gradually converted to islam. 2. It was the Catholic Kings who expulsed the islamic population (mudéjares) from the kingdom, making it compulsory the conversion to christianity. 3. By the time Phillipp III ordered the expulsion, there were no muslims in the kingdom. The people expulsed (moriscos) were already christians but descedants of old-old mudéjares.

*what a mistake in the Qur'an!* Allah himself testifies that he has a son and he is the son as Christians understand it! Only the Koran writer was too ignorant to know what Son of God means! Allah's word which created everything is Allah himself too! *The Word Allahs which created everything is the Son of God according to Christianity!*
Spaniards should never forget their history

Its actually the opposite. When Christians came back, they turned spain into darkness. The Golden Age of spain was during the reign of Islam. So many beautiful poems were created at that time in Arabic, and saying how beautiful it is and how happy everyone live. But nope, chirstians came and ruined everything. Thank god the architects and old buildings that the muslims built are still there. Even Christians couldn't do the same lol

Lol talk about revisionist history, you was killing Jews.
I believe there are mistakes in this video. Most importantly, there is no reason to believe that a majority of the people living in Hispania were ever Muslim. In Egypt, conquered by the Arabs in the 7th century, the population is thought to have remained majority Christian well into the late Middle Ages (it is still about 10% Christian today). Muslim rulers were relatively tolerant of Christians continuing to practice their faith, so long as they accepted Muslim rule (and were taxed to show their submission). Given that northern most Hispania was never conquered by Muslims and more than half of Hispania was retaken by Christian princes no later than 1100, there is little reason to believe that, like in Egypt centuries after this, the population converted so quickly. Secondly, it is my understanding that Jews indeed practiced Judaism in a clandestine fashion but that the Moriscos were expelled for essentially racial reasons: they were tainted by Muslim ancestors. The term blue blood comes from Spain and it means that the light skin allows one to see the veins. There is documented crypto Muslim practice from the late 15th-early 16th century period, at the time of the culmination of the Reconquista, but the expulsion by Philip III occurred in 1614, a century after the forced conversion. In any case, Christian lands were not tolerant of Islam and this intolerance seems to have stigmatized the Moriscos.

Using this logic we can say that every single European is an invader of Europe because they are at a different location than they originated from. For example: The English origin isn't Great Britain. The muslims who invaded Spain *stayed there* and then became locals because that's how it works.

I'm pretty sure that Spain is a secular country, not a Christian one.
It was called La Reconquista, because of the muslim invasion which held place centuries before it, it was Christian original inhabitants recovering their rightful territory 👍
Matthew Carr wrote a great book on the removal of moriscos in 1609-1614. Fascinating book. Muslim Iberia was an amazing place and a beacon of learning, architecture, and culture. Religiously for the most part they coexisted under Muslim rule. People take their current views on Islam and Christianity and apply then to events the happened almost a thousand years ago. Think about that. A thousand or more years when Muslim Iberia was created. If you ever travel to Spain and see the impact of Al Andalus it's nothing short of amazing. I've been to Granada, Seville, Cordoba and the Muslim impact is a sight to see. Don't judge past religions based on your current beliefs(people leaving stupid ignorant comments)
