Egypt 8: Saladin Citadel

[NCudi]

@Yaiyasmin ah my bad, sorry about that.

[Yaiyasmin]

@NCudi No worries :)

[NCudi]

The Mamluks came into power between 1250–1517. Salah al-din lived between the time line of 1138 – 1193, so were your friend got this story of Salah al-Din killing all the mamluks i really don't know as their was no mamluk power when Salah al-din lived. also he was not a jealous leader.

[Yaiyasmin]

@NCudi No no listen to what he says, he did not say Salah al-Din killed them, he is talking about someone else

[Yaiyasmin]

@NCudi He's talking about Muhammad Ali.

[rencrow]

Very nice video. Thanks for sharing.

[BoBlastin]

that little girl is SUFI dancing @ 4:41

Maybe YOU have no idea...:o)

[Yaiyasmin]

@BoBlastin Hahah you could very well be right! Seems I am prejudice against blonde little girls, making generalizations and thinking they know nothing about sufi dancing, I should be ashamed

[DISCOVERPAKISTAN]

nice videos 

[sxeABz]

If you don't know who is Saladin, just ask any Crusader around you (you'll found a lot)

[YoLninYo]

also, your sister is so incredibly HOTT, ask her if she'll have my babies (just 10) hahaha :)

[YoLninYo]

this is an arab guide? the script he called "kufic" is NOT so. search for kufi script on the web. idiot guides.

[Dubaifreak]

omg is it normal if i cried at the intro..havent heard azan in a looooooong time..

[LaydeeTemptationzz]

i've been there :) such an amazing mosque

nice video :)

[Soulja4islam]

Tourists in a masjid? LOL You would only find that in Egypt haha beautiful mosques out there though, I have to admit. Mashallah.

[Yaiyasmin]

@Soulja4islam Haha na bro, I think it's common to see tourists in mosques, I saw a bunch of tourists with cameras in the mosque close to where I live in Sweden once, and the Cordoba mosque a lot of ppl go to also, and in Pakistan...

Yeah it is beautiful, I love the white courtyard

[Soulja4islam]

@Yaiyasmin Lol oh okay. Well apparently I'm confined to seeing mosques only in the bay area (where I live) and never see any tourists here haha you're blessed that you've had the chance to go out there, maybe one day I'll go to if God permits. Egypt is one of my desirable locations to go visit lol

[Aloneincrowd2]

@Yaiyasmin you are right tourists always visit mosque in Islamabad! In Faisal mosque

[talibilm99]

could you please tell me where you got the adhan that plays in the beginning of this video? I would love to wake up to it every morning for fajr subhanAllah it is soooo soothing! and your videos are pretty awesome you should send them to the History Channel lol

[Yaiyasmin]

@talibilm99 Thank you! It's by Mishary Al-Afasy, search on google, it's really nice

[talibilm99]

@Yaiyasmin Thanks so much. I have come across some recitations that are truly hidden gems if you'd like to see them.

[1761341]

why exactly do you have to take off your shoes?? are they THAT lazy to sweep?! i=

[RihamRouge]

@1761341 it's not about that. they do it anyway. it's that the mosque has to be clean. you REALLY have no idea about islam.

[RihamRouge]

i've been there! it was SOO beautiful! a MUST for everyone.

[RihamRouge]

@Deptstate799

so she's not..

but still what's the problem with converting to islam? if you think that's the right religion then why not? i know 5 people who converted, i'm a muslimah myself..

[1761341]

@RihamRouge are you only allowed to shower on weekends tho?

[RihamRouge]

@1761341 what are you talking about? only on weekends? HAHAHA. dude, to be clean is half our iman. as a muslim you should shower every day + 5x wash yourself for prayer.

[1761341]

@RihamRouge oh. my bad. haha. i thought it was only on weekends.

[alfredo72]

impressed for the mosques!! they are really beautiful!!!

[saf0007]

I like Yasmin's editing skills...she can be future hollywood director x

[Signalement]

They let the women in to the giant mosque with tiny clothes and no head scarf? Very strange, but whatever. Good video anyway.

[Yaiyasmin]

@Signalement There was a girl that had very revealing clothes and she got to borrow a long robe when she went in. But headscarf was not necessary.

[Signalement]

@Yaiyasmin I see arms, shoulders, backs and legs. besides hair that is. Nowhere else would they accept that. Buuuut whatever.

[HictorOfTroy]

COOL girl Yasmin :-)

[HictorOfTroy]

saladin invited them for a dinner and had killed them!!!!!! YOU ARE BIG LIER , SALADIN NEVER DID THAT ! he just had killed shiits leaders ,so he can manage to head to jurosalem. GO AND READ HISTORY

[Yaiyasmin]

@HictorOfTroy No he did NOT say Saladin did that!

[thehumanofthisworld]

YaiYasmin, y r u soooooooooooooooo cool? <3 ur videos !!!

[Yaiyasmin]

@Deptstate799 If you mean because of the headscarf, it's etiquette to cover your head and body when you're in a mosque whether muslim or not.

[aqib1513]

The voice of Imam is so beautiful masha allah

Yasmin i really wish this video had complete prayer...

[TheSwedishLad]

LOVED the opening shot with vocals and the editing with the cross-overs are very slick and effective.

So you're traveling around, but do you reside in Spain or Sweden? Again, beautiful video. Tweeted it out!!

Woop woop

[Yaiyasmin]

@TheSwedishLad Ooow sweet you! Jag bor i Skåne, mannen! My name is not Inga, it is Yasmin, ja! But I'm from Spain so I go there quite often, going tomorrow for example

[TheSwedishLad]

@Yaiyasmin SKÅNE!!! I'm totally a Malmöbo (Oxie in my youth) but I reside in Karlskrona since a few years.

It's very far away :)

[Yaiyasmin]

@TheSwedishLad Har du sett Malmö, har du sett världen kompis. Malmö mitt ghetto ftw, bästa staden i Sverige! Gick du gymnasiet här? Vilket?

[TheSwedishLad]

@Yaiyasmin Haur du sitt Malme, haur du sitt varden, oh yeah. Jag gick på Petri 95-98 med alla kidsen från västra Malmö, ha ha. Bodde på Värnhem från 97-03 i olika lägenheter. mmm falafel

[Yaiyasmin]

@TheSwedishLad Men NEEEEJJ! Haha jag skulle säga i min förra kommentar "och säg inte att du gick på petri, för då, mannen, jag måste döda dig"..

Borgar ALL THE WAY!

[TheSwedishLad]

@Yaiyasmin nja, jag såg aldrig någon rivalitet, det handlade mer om att anpassa sig till de rika ungarna. Dessutom hade vi aq-va-kul som buffert. Vilka år gick du på Borgar?

[Yaiyasmin]

@TheSwedishLad 10 år efter dig, 2005-2008.

[TheSwedishLad]

@Yaiyasmin då är det nog lugnt mellan oss :)

Är du i Spanien nu? Har hört att det är väldigt varmt idag nämligen.

[Yaiyasmin]

@TheSwedishLad I morgon :) Hoppas det är varm yes

[atqtrq]

I liked the dancing child.. :D 4:24

[Malocosa]

UFOs behind the Citadel at 00:11?

[wixcoa]

looks like you & new editing program r off to a good start :)

[kayzplace786]

Yasmin can you please tell me where the adhan audio is from? I would really like a copy.

Thanks

[Yaiyasmin]

@kayzplace786 Sure, it's recited by Mishary Alafasy. Website: muslimtents(dot)com/alafasy (sorry, youtube doesn't allow to write full websites) there you have all his recitations. Peace

[smartboybaloch]

@Yaiyasmin i also like this adhan...i also tried to find this on the site given by you..but i did not find this...this is a very very sweet adhan..can you please send me this azan.

[smartboybaloch]

@kayzplace786 i just found it now....jst now.. here is it.. watch?v=7q0l9H4imYc&feature=re­lated

[kayzplace786]

beautiful adhan

[psycheswirl8]

@bindasUA can you give us a reference brother insha'Allah regarding what you have said??

[naeem52000]

Over all very great job!!!! U look beaytiful in the scarf.

[BonaDun]

First Adhan I ever heard was in the movie The Exorcist

~ ~

[Yaiyasmin]

@BonaDun WHAT??

[BonaDun]

@Yaiyasmin

yeah the one about the little girl that gets possessed by a demon, spins her head 360, does the nasty with a crucifix, and vomits pea soup...never seen it? (unas escenas con el doblaje en espanol - watch?v=Tua7y9QVKTg - que en lugar de miedo y terror inspira risa jaja)

Anyway, it opens in Iraq with an Adhan , azhan, etc - 1st time I heard one as a kid-was mesmerized. It's on my page.

[Yaiyasmin]

@BonaDun Ye I know the film but I've never seen the full movie. Had no idea it had anything to do with Iraq. I must watch it

[kshohabpakistani]

this is very nice video

u r so lucky

[MASSANFOOTY]

Beautiful lady, beautiful video, good work :)

[Hotboyno7]

Yasmin , your videos are amazing, I like your work,

[BoBlastin]

Hennes Fötter ! prinsessan, och hennes fötter...

nice crescent fade in/out... and is that sunset in reverse?

surely you didn't record it at rise ;

[Pixelfight]

Yas..I like this Adhan, where did you get it from?

[ali20087]

@Pixelfight Adhan is by Mishary Rashid Al Afasy, he is imam of the grand mosque in Kuwait, his recitation of the Quran is one of my favourites. Beautiful.

[Pixelfight]

@ali20087 I found the Adhan, its beautiful. thx

[lacme4]

Thats pretty amazing yas i noticed you also are getting more creative in your video. I noticed that in the beginning you had a little more of you come out and gave us a since of the war that went on as the guy was speaking about the war that went on. Also luved the pan into the egypt pyramids that was a great distance away. I never seen that be4 and was pretty excited to see that. Hey what happened to your wicked at the end of your videos. Maybe you thought it was time to get rid of that.

[TheFaustianMan]

Very cool.

[sxeABz]

what happened to you guys his name is Salahuddin not Saladin, don't be proenglish, thxns

[bicyclist7610]

The Azan added to this nice video makes me have the feeling as if i were there ,thanks for sharing this experience :)

[riddler820]

The intro was amazing... Magnificent, that's all I can say... Subhan Allah

[Saroona24434]

Beautiful :)

[chuchulora]

very beautiful Azan:D

nyc work.....I think it would be better if you also put the traslation of Azan for our non-arab brothers:)

[Yaiyasmin]

@Toops144 Yes! Saladin was a great man, I was really excited to be there.

[shamiking1]

@Yaiyasmin yes also watch very famous movie "Kingdom of Heaven" its a movie on Saladin...

& all of your videos are awsum :)

[EmanulIslam]

Nice work - I love how you're always travelling; you get to see so many places, Masha'allah.

[EnglishStani]

This might be a really dumb question but does Egypt have roads buildings etc like Europe? or its all sandy stone buildings etc

[nanelarya]

It looks absolutely beautiful, and the music really added to the video, very well done like always Yasmin :)

[bootafromtts]

[psycheswirl8]

@ali20087 Salaams... Seriously... me too... I thought this Mosque was in Istanbul. Then I came to know in the video that it is a replica of that Mosque!

[Ahmad12791]
