Salam and welcome to Al Muqaddimah!Â
My name is Syawish and I'm the one-man team that runs Al Muqaddimah. History has always appealed to me more than most things and with time, I came to realize that a certain part, the real, detailed part, about people that called themselves Muslims, was barely available on youtube. It didn't take a lot of research to realize that even Muslims did not seem to know much of their history like how Islam reached the world, what happened to al-Andalus etc. Wanting to answer some of those questions, I decided to fill in the gaps with Al Muqaddimah.Â
Question by question, answer by answer, this caravan of history aficionados has grown into what it is today. From the very beginning, this channel has been about history and history only. All of my videos have been and will continue to be from a liberal and secular point of view. If you are looking for a religious take on Islamic history then Al Muqaddimah is not the channel for you.Â
Tuhada,
Syawish.
