Most historians consider the story of Kaldi discovering coffee to be non-historical. Records of it appear much later. It's ironic that Muslims would invent deodorant if they seldom ever wear it! Plus, perfume predates Islam. I love how they attribute one guy's eating habits to the fact that we can "enjoy all this", implying he invented eating or something! Glass-making dates back to 3500 BC with the Mesopotamians. She even admits carpets came from the Bedouins. And, is she Muslim or something?
That's amazing, great choice of subject your Majesty. Aren't Muslims just amazing, when they want to be? why not wanting to be right now? what's holding us back? (The wars and the hate of others, I know) but we should at least try, and show the world the other side, the great side of a Muslim's mind and Religion.
Yes indeed muslim world helped many other things that impact us in our every day life style. But I'm sorry to point out, but arabs stopped developing and using there magical and creative minds some years ago, when they started to only focus on how to opress women and keep them as an obidient object.
I believe that we muslims will have an golden age once again...just as we stop thinking like cave men and get back to use our brains to more useful things , like inventing!
@HasanAlkhazraji I swear this comment isn't meant to come off as rude or mean, but I honestly want to know why ppl are proud of the country they are born into? Like, you have no control over it, so what's the point? I was raised to be proud of things I chose or accomplished. I think ppl should be more proud of religion or career choice or whatever. Cuz then you have the right to be proud, cuz you either choose to act according to that religion/do that job etc. Again no offense intended!
dear gwythaint, get your facts straight!! Koran is a holy book talking about how prophet came into being what are his beliefs and islam as such just like any bible, geeta, torah or dhamma. Just like hundreds of other holy books. Well speed of light is not an issue with jesus so why should it be an issue with koran!! Geez...
The Arabs no doubt have had a great impact on Europe. Before them it was the Greeks and the Romans, and after them -thanks to the Arab thinkers- it was the Greeks again. That, however, is history. The significance of drawing on such accounts to refute stereotypes on Arabs or Islam is quite blurred. Her majesty is the apple of the eye of the media in the west because she is the "Arab" and the "Moslem" that the west can discourse with.
also i have to add the fact that, many things that she has mentioned was invented by Iranians(Persians) long before islam... please note all this... if you really are a historian, you should know all this... this is so not fairrr/...
you dont mention it do you? that Iraq was a part of Persia... (Iran), and Persian invented al those... also Iran is known for its CARPETS... and not just any muslim country...
All i know about what was made in ancient arab is just numbers to count, bookkeep, to bill, to input on keyboard... without this invention, what are we using to move our global economy? With what else do we spend every single day ? None.
I found it really amazing that both rugs and coffe were invented by muslim inventors because they are big industries. Without their contribution, there would be no starbucks , and that makes me upset :(
the video gets on my nerves coz it tries to say: "Dear Masters Americans, dont hate us, we invented so many many many nice things, dont hate us we have a history showing that our ancentors were civilised" Please dont hate us...we beg u pleaaase omg
This video does not imply, in any way, that they hate the Americans. This is made as a tool to let everyone know that they're more civilized and able than what they are given credit for. It is to educate people that we are a global nation, that we are capable of understanding one another, that we can share what we have to the entire world, that compromise can be done through peaceful negotionations, etc. Peace is possible. And your "getting on my nerves" doesn't help in the process.

Nothing new to me, learned this all in my Medieval World History Class. The point of this video is to promote the ideas that Muslims developed a lot of the things we use today. But many of the things they developed were simply built upon research and objects that had already been created by classical Europeans, such as the Greek and Roman civilizations.
mr. deep time unit 37. i dont wanna support this video, but the arabs saved all the documents of old libraries which would have been destroyed by the internal wars in greece for example. how did they save the books? they translated them. so we have many books now which are not available anymore in greek. but only in arabic.
Toothpicks made of bronze have been found as burial objects in prehistoric graves in Northern Italy and in the East Alps. It was also well-known in Mesopotamia.
Forget trying to put down the Muslims - it is a fact that till the down fall of the Ottomans, the Oriental was a source of inspiration for most of dark Europe. Even before that, Arab traders were spreading ideas from India and China. Do you want to forget each Muslim who is even now making a positive contribution in every field all over the world? And never forget that we are world citizens - I, an Indian, can be as proud of Avicenna as Sushruta or Stephen Hawkings. Boundaries are for fools.
Maybe I'm the odd one in the bunch, but I don't find much of this surprising. Anyone who paid attention in history class, shouldn't be too surpised. Maybe this is an out there idea but I think the media and human nature are largely the root of the problem. Between the two, a cycle of fear is created using a human fascination with tragedy and drama to initiate this downward spiral of negativity to everyone's cultures. We both are shown the worst of each on a regular basis.
historical fact can be twisted in the way that the conquerors want...and now the media (a good example of that, Hollywood) can do the job in a better way, so...history is no exact it's a real mistery, showing just the point of view of the winners.
Interesting video. Spain has an important Arabic heritage. Our language has many words from Arabic: almohada (=pillow), alubia (=bean), alcalde (from al-qadi;=the mayor of a city), bellota (=acorn), jabalí(=will boar), jaqueca (=headache), marfil (from aẓm alfíl, =ivory), sandía (from sandíyya;=watermelon), albornoz (=bathrobe), azucena (=white lily), azahar (=orange blossom)...but my favourite word is "Ojalá" (=I wish,if only,I hope) from "Inshallah". "Ojalá llueva"=I wish it would rain
except we don't live in the past but rather in the present leaning into the future. The NOW matters. History matters but dwelling on past accomplishments is pure BS.
Valinomycin, ahahahah... you people don't know the saying "Who has no past has no present nor future." do you? Honestly, you're saying that the past doesn't matter as much as the present when most of everything there is about "NOW" is thanks to the past and hisory.
Al-Khwarizmi (Mohammad ebne Mūsā Khwārazmī محمد بن موسی خوارزمی) was a -=Persian=- mathematician, astronomer, astrologer and geographer. His Algebra, written around 820, was the first book on the systematic solution of linear and quadratic equations. Consequently he is considered by many to be the father of algebra.
Very incorrect, because he was an Arab mathematician who lived in Iran when it was part of the Abbasid Caliphate and he lived all his life in Baghdad. He spoke only Arabic as well. That goes for the Al-Asfahani who was from Tagallab tribe which is Arabic.
Well Religion of Christianity, Muslim etc. The great book. Was writing in the middle east. Well if the world hates Muslim = Arab the way they think. I told one of the Christians you do know that your holy bible is from the middle east right? Your morals of love, friendship to others. Started in the Arab culture. To think today the Arab books of any Christian and Muslim. Can have such a impact of the word fate. For me its all a culture movement.
العدد صفر لم يكن موجودا في العديد من الحضارات السابقة , مع اختراع العرب للصفر استطيع القول ان العديد من المفاهيم الرياضية قد تغيرت والعديد من العلوم الحالية تعتمد على هذا العدد
معلومات جميلة جدا واود ان اشكرك جلالة الملكة رانيا فنحن في الاردن فخورين بك وبجلالة الملك عبدالله الثاني , سوف اضيف معلومة اخرىوهو اختراع عظيم قام به العرب وهو اختراع العدد (صفر)
I agree with this video but shouldn't we look at modern achievements?we are so much behind, we are contributing nothing to the modern world, instead we are taken as a bad example and countries are changing their foreign policies to fight terrorism because of delinquents who gave Arabs a bad name.We should show the world our value NOW and not centuries ago.
Really? Here, I'll help. Lets start with the Father of Genetics, Gregor Mendel. He was a monk that studied plant cross-pollination and inheritance from the parent plants.
Without him, you wouldn't have Stem Cell Research, improved plant resiliency, and the very basis of EVOLUTION.
Christianity had been fort he last five-hundred years, the reason why scientists have studied the universe. Because they want to understand God's domain, because they want to become closer to him.
Coffe wasnt discovered by an arab ...get your facts right..It was a native plant in ethiopia ( where the people r not arabs)...This is absurd ...i am ethiopian and displeased by your false and decieving claims...stop stealing other peoples/cultures history.Should be ashamed.
Ethiopians were the first to observe the effects of caffeine in coffee beans upon livestock that consumed them... however it was in arabia that coffee was first roasted and brewed similarly how it is today... get YOUR facts right...
Coffe is native plant in ethiopia , it grew on the Kingdom of Kaffa in Ethiopia, where the coffee plant originated (its name there is bunn or bunna).which in turn came into being via Arabic qahwa, a truncation of qahhwat al-bun or wine of the bean.The idea and comment that an arab discovered coffee is untrue and flawed.Please respect other peoples/culture's contribution to history, rather than attributing every discovery to Arabs.Stop stealing my peoples history to enrich yours.Should be ashamed
I bet the people who made this are only doing so because they are insecure and need something to prove that Islam actually did something all those years ago. Either that or they have too much time on their hands.
I am curious about if any groundbreaking progress in the basic sciences, like physics, has come from the Arab world in the last couple of decades.
I have a stereotype that Muslims find it difficult to accept radical shifts in their worldview brought about by breakthroughs in fundamental science because they believe all fundamental truths are given in the Quran. Thus all fundamental sciences are viewed with suspicion and discouraged as corrosive to religion.
Being a Muslim this is the first time I hav ever heard of such a stereotype. Many fundamental scientific truths are present within the Quran, (ie. Einstein's General Relativity Theory, The exact speed of light) and most basic scientific theories and new research tend to coincide with the Quran very well, such as the health benefits of fasting, the mental benefits of Sajdah or Sujud, the sanitary benefits of Wudhu and so forth.
Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.
haha and those Muslim inventors were only a thousand years behind the Chinese. And more people drink tea than coffee. Most of these videos demonstrate an ignorance of the Far East to the same degree my fellow Americans are ignorant of the Near East.
But I still appreciate the videos and I am only harsh because I hold these videos to a higher standard. Thank you.
Islamic iventions and "donations to mankind" were usually only made, where Islam was not (yet) strong enough to suppress the advanced and open thinking of the late Ancient world. Andalusia and Bagdad for example where centers of Jewish wisdom and prosperity, which went on for some time after the islamic conquest, but then the anti-science character of Islam also made these areas to an intellectual desert as at any place where Islam finally suppresses everything else. Nothing to be proud at...
It's a common theme with modern orientated muslims to try to convince themselves and the westerns that actually Islam donated something to mankind other than war and suppression. And then they always take out the same examples, going hunderts of years back to find something. The problem is just: These "donations to mankind" are not quite islamic, actually they were only possible, because Islam was still weak in the region they originated and other more advanced thoughts had still room to exist.
You're completely right. They had nothing to do with Islam. Most of them were invented by not so religious Persian scientist (eg. Avicenna, Khayyam, Razi, etc)
It is you again. Let me tell you a little fact: Persian was not used in Iran for centuries until the Teherian (Ahmed Ben Taher) kingdom in the late Abbasid empire. And thus many who lived in Iran at that time where generally ARABS. Live with it. We are greater.
I can understand your fervor for the Arab language and it's spread in the 7nd century, but you are wrong here. Farsi came from Sassanid and Assyrian roots Both were present when the Arabs arrived and Farsi developed as a minority language long before the Teheranian kingdom.
I thought only the Israelis believed in empty land myths? Arab came north with Mohammed and mixed with the hundreds of languages it encountered to form the beauty it is now, don't deny that. That IS our heritage.
Its nice to know that these inventions mentioned in the video were contributed by arab people like myself. However we have to admit and respect the Westerners (Americans and Europeans mostly) for preserving these inventions and adding more to them.
This video is misleading and superbly flawed. Again, Perfume, Carpets, and many other stuff mentioned were invented in Middle-East but not in Muslim World. Islam was not even on the earth when those things were invented. Please stop relating everything to Islam because that religion had nothing to offer by itself.
It wasnt Muslim scientists, but middle-eastern (Persian, Phoenicians, etc) scientist who invented and discovered stuff. Do we call Newton Christian scientist or English Scientist?
Dude, Al Kindi was from baghdad and he was Muslim when he invented perfumes.
It's well known by scientists that Arabs specifically are great inventors and they do exist before Islam, Arabs are the sons of Ibraham, they are the cusions of Jews !
Yes, educated people know these things, and far more important inventions than coffee: Arab world invented lots of important techniques, instruments and new approaches in medicine and science... some 500-800 years ago. At that time Christian Europe was just a religious horror (they killed millions of women, burned people etc etc.). But what muslim world is now??? Total degradation! Hardly couple of Noble laureats, poverty of entire nations in oil-free countries, including Jordan. Explain why :))
Well actually Arabs barely invented anything during that time. It was mostly Persian scientists who invented the stuff and Islam took credit.
Anyway, you're right... Right Now Middle-East is deep into poverty and nothing good came out from there in the past 100 years... Perhaps they should stop looking back and build the future. The path to that is put aside the religion and separate it from their government.
no one is doubting the great civilization of the great Persian empire , it is you that should show respect to others so you can get it.
you are saying it like roses only grew in the Persian land and that they are the only ones with noses that can tell a good smell , so stop your ignorance before you make a bigger fool out of your self.

Are afraid to mention PERSIA? Everytime they come close they only refer to it as Islamic civilization. Carpets were invented in Persia FAR before Islam appeared. And Roses were cultivated in Persia way before Arabs knew what it is.

Roses didn't ONLY grow in Iran, but Roses were cultivated and domesticated by Persians. Roses that we know today are not the same as desert roses. As you can hear she says ENGLISH rose. That specific kind of rose that we're talking about was first cultivated in Persia.
btw, Roses grow well in Persian dirt deserts... and certainly not in Arabian sand deserts.
Queen Rania, I want to thank you for helping to spread awareness about the Middle East in such a gracious, open-minded, and educational manner. I am myself a young Canadian/American woman who lived for many years in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia and was astounded at the lack of understanding about the Arab world when my family and I moved back to the West.
I was asked several times if I had lived in a tent, rode a camel to school, or if I had ever seen a computer before! Moving back was very hard for all of my family as we missed the hospitality, pervasive sense of family and belonging, culture, fantastic food, bazaars, and great weather . I feel that your videos will shine light on a world that has been unfairly categorized as completely backwards and oppressive a view that I feel is due mainly to a lack of understanding and knowledge.
Although the Middle East certainly has a long ways to go, it is on the right path and in this effort is still holding strong to values (hospitality, respect, family, etc.) that some would say the West has, unfortunately, lately forgotten. The East and West have so much to offer to each other, as you have proudly shown. If we would only keep our hearts and minds open to your message
Al-Bukhaari and Muslim may Allaah have mercy upon them also reported that the Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) said: "Allaah will not look on the Day of Judgment at him who drags his robe (behind him) out of pride."
Would be nice if the videos had subtitles, because reading English is easier than understanding (despite the great pronunciation of the queen). And that she has beautiful eyes ...
Your majesty I admire so much what you do for women on your country, I live in Guatemala where hundreds of women are being murdered every year in a brutal manner,our government doesn't care and they don't do anything to fight these crimes which is my biggest concern. i don't know what can be done to help my country in this matter and unfortunately we don't have someone like you to fight for our rights or to speak up for us, but you are an inpiration to try to find a way, so thank you.

this video is false in in its facts that you try to portray of the arab world. the only real contribution that arabs really gave was their religon and coffee. and that is simply it. i would suggest you do further research. because this is all false.
the egyptians were the first to invent time.... not muslim arabs. many muslims are trying to claim that they also invented math...and science in medicene..... it was the egyptians and the ancient chinese.... hello... also egyptians inveted the first class orniments.. not muslims.. the only thing that arabs contributed to this world was
i would like to see what we as Jordanians have done within the past 80 years , i know we have lots of inventions and ideas that one of us came up with please if any one have any video that shows an idea , That you or some one you know have done please post it let the rest of the world know i am glad THE QUEEN have this channel for us to show the rest of the world how friendly and respectful people we are

It's kind of sad being an American because we are such a new country; we don't have the long cultural history that many other countries in the world have.
I've only been to Europe once (expensive hopping across oceans and all), but what I most enjoyed was seeing the old cathedrals that have been around since the middle ages. I couldn't imagine seeing something like the pyramids, that have been around for thousands of years. Amazing!
your majesty queen Rania. i saw you recently in your passage in brazil with your husband. id like to participate with you of this dialog between peoples and cultures. i really think when we know the other we like more. by the way, our best coffee in brazil is arabian coffee.. joy & freedom, antonio
For those who doesn't like the idea of why arabs/muslims always talk about their civilized past. People have always seen arabs as the least civilized people ever lived. Some people would say that arabs were not and will never be civilized and always barbaric. This video is kind an answer to these accusations, most of the things that the west use was invented by an arab. Its not like that there were no civilization before us, and its not like we don't know anything about being civilized.
second; when u want to criticise someone u have to be strong,and not only using the offensive way of questioning! I find this weak! and away from logic...
Tell us then how can a muslim speak about Islam,and how should a muslim women behave so that she wont take an advantage of anything as u claim?
The West has a lot to be thankful for in respect of the Arab - and, by extension, mainly Muslim - world: great inventions and advances in science, mathematics, medicine and the arts. This video helps to inform people in a positive way about the Arab/Muslim world, and is a welcome counterbalance to the seemingly endless media portrayal of all Arabs/Muslims as "terrorists." Just for the record, I am a gentile and have no religious affiliations. affiliations
What are we supposed to be taught here? I guess some supremacist like to think that there wasn't civilization until Muslims came along. LOL
If there is one people who will never fail to remind you how great or supreme they supposedly were it is the Arabs/Muslims not to mention they will imply it is somehow relevant today.
With all do respect 'woodandsosa', the purpose of this video is to illustrate that not all Arabs/Muslims are useless extremists, and our heritage not insignificant. We have millions of museums all over the world paying tribute to the civilizations of the past.. it is intrinsic in human nature to appreciate our history and be proud of it, and we have every right as a part of humanity to highlight it. world media has brainwashed the masses with stereotypes.
It is relevant because of the way people view Islam today. Our past is testament to what Muslims are capable of..not violence or terror, but peace and productivity.
Why aren't we up to the same things we did back then? I don't know, nor am I proud of it. But it doesn't change the past.
Once again,you have uploaded another fascinating video,focusing on the history&similarities that we ALL share on a daily basis in our lives. By focusing on the similarities between us,hopefully people will start&continue to respect each other&their differences too.
You are truly an example to both men and women all over the world today, and the people of Jordan are lucky to have such a charismatic Queen.
Thank you for this video&for all the amazing work that you do, it does not go unnoticed.
it is a great bit of history and a lot of the breakthroughs in the so clled dark ages where thanks to islamic influences but that was in a time when develepments in the field of medicine and culture where under a strict restriction from the katholic clergy wich banned all so called herretic teachings only thru the so called renesainse did we break that religious deadlock and start thinking for ourselfs
Thanks for the Video, it is true that Perfume and Class wear have not been invented in Europe. But they also have not been invented by Muslim poeple......At the time of The Persian Impair, 2,550 years ago, they had glass wears in which they kept their perfumes and use some of the glass wear for dining. They had insurance for all the workers how were building the Takhte Jamshod, and all people how were working for the government.
Great bits of history. I think it's important we don't get stuck with the notion of the European civilisation being the most advanced and developed one, and appreciate the contribution of other cultures.
The purpose is to break the cultural barriers ,many westerners think that Middle Easterners are nothing but blood thirsty monsters,they think we don't have inventors ,thinkers or educated people.
In their minds we r ALL terrorists just because some dozen terrorists that "attacked" WTC where middle easterners,and BTW the characters accused of performing the 911 has never been proven guilty,some are still alive and living in Lebanon even after driving a plane into WTC himself,strange
@GIRLANDLAKAIFORLIFE Because she WAS referring to Muslims. You don't have to be an Arab to be a Muslim. Common sense.

the video gets on my nerves coz it tries to say: "Dear Masters Americans, dont hate us, we invented so many many many nice things, dont hate us we have a history showing that our ancentors were civilised" Please dont hate us...we beg u pleaaase omg
sherezad1001 2 years ago
This video does not imply, in any way, that they hate the Americans. This is made as a tool to let everyone know that they're more civilized and able than what they are given credit for. It is to educate people that we are a global nation, that we are capable of understanding one another, that we can share what we have to the entire world, that compromise can be done through peaceful negotionations, etc. Peace is possible. And your "getting on my nerves" doesn't help in the process.

Nothing new to me, learned this all in my Medieval World History Class. The point of this video is to promote the ideas that Muslims developed a lot of the things we use today. But many of the things they developed were simply built upon research and objects that had already been created by classical Europeans, such as the Greek and Roman civilizations.

mr. deep time unit 37. i dont wanna support this video, but the arabs saved all the documents of old libraries which would have been destroyed by the internal wars in greece for example. how did they save the books? they translated them. so we have many books now which are not available anymore in greek. but only in arabic.

Forget trying to put down the Muslims - it is a fact that till the down fall of the Ottomans, the Oriental was a source of inspiration for most of dark Europe. Even before that, Arab traders were spreading ideas from India and China. Do you want to forget each Muslim who is even now making a positive contribution in every field all over the world? And never forget that we are world citizens - I, an Indian, can be as proud of Avicenna as Sushruta or Stephen Hawkings. Boundaries are for fools.

Maybe I'm the odd one in the bunch, but I don't find much of this surprising. Anyone who paid attention in history class, shouldn't be too surpised. Maybe this is an out there idea but I think the media and human nature are largely the root of the problem. Between the two, a cycle of fear is created using a human fascination with tragedy and drama to initiate this downward spiral of negativity to everyone's cultures. We both are shown the worst of each on a regular basis.

Interesting video. Spain has an important Arabic heritage. Our language has many words from Arabic: almohada (=pillow), alubia (=bean), alcalde (from al-qadi;=the mayor of a city), bellota (=acorn), jabalí(=will boar), jaqueca (=headache), marfil (from aẓm alfíl, =ivory), sandía (from sandíyya;=watermelon), albornoz (=bathrobe), azucena (=white lily), azahar (=orange blossom)...but my favourite word is "Ojalá" (=I wish,if only,I hope) from "Inshallah". "Ojalá llueva"=I wish it would rain

Al-Khwarizmi (Mohammad ebne Mūsā Khwārazmī محمد بن موسی خوارزمی) was a -=Persian=- mathematician, astronomer, astrologer and geographer. His Algebra, written around 820, was the first book on the systematic solution of linear and quadratic equations. Consequently he is considered by many to be the father of algebra.
A little research doesn't hurt ;)

Very incorrect, because he was an Arab mathematician who lived in Iran when it was part of the Abbasid Caliphate and he lived all his life in Baghdad. He spoke only Arabic as well. That goes for the Al-Asfahani who was from Tagallab tribe which is Arabic.

I told one of the Christians you do know that your holy bible is from the middle east right? Your morals of love, friendship to others. Started in the Arab culture. To think today the Arab books of any Christian and Muslim. Can have such a impact of the word fate. For me its all a culture movement.

I am curious about if any groundbreaking progress in the basic sciences, like physics, has come from the Arab world in the last couple of decades.
I have a stereotype that Muslims find it difficult to accept radical shifts in their worldview brought about by breakthroughs in fundamental science because they believe all fundamental truths are given in the Quran. Thus all fundamental sciences are viewed with suspicion and discouraged as corrosive to religion.
Prove me wrong, please.
geodesicks 3 years ago 3
Being a Muslim this is the first time I hav ever heard of such a stereotype. Many fundamental scientific truths are present within the Quran, (ie. Einstein's General Relativity Theory, The exact speed of light) and most basic scientific theories and new research tend to coincide with the Quran very well, such as the health benefits of fasting, the mental benefits of Sajdah or Sujud, the sanitary benefits of Wudhu and so forth.
Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.

Really now? Did the Quran refer to the speed of light through a vacuum or the speed of light through glass or the speed of light through water?

Islamic iventions and "donations to mankind" were usually only made, where Islam was not (yet) strong enough to suppress the advanced and open thinking of the late Ancient world. Andalusia and Bagdad for example where centers of Jewish wisdom and prosperity, which went on for some time after the islamic conquest, but then the anti-science character of Islam also made these areas to an intellectual desert as at any place where Islam finally suppresses everything else. Nothing to be proud at...
nebo3003 3 years ago
It's a common theme with modern orientated muslims to try to convince themselves and the westerns that actually Islam donated something to mankind other than war and suppression. And then they always take out the same examples, going hunderts of years back to find something. The problem is just: These "donations to mankind" are not quite islamic, actually they were only possible, because Islam was still weak in the region they originated and other more advanced thoughts had still room to exist.
nebo3003 3 years ago
You're completely right. They had nothing to do with Islam. Most of them were invented by not so religious Persian scientist (eg. Avicenna, Khayyam, Razi, etc)

I can understand your fervor for the Arab language and it's spread in the 7nd century, but you are wrong here. Farsi came from Sassanid and Assyrian roots Both were present when the Arabs arrived and Farsi developed as a minority language long before the Teheranian kingdom.
I thought only the Israelis believed in empty land myths? Arab came north with Mohammed and mixed with the hundreds of languages it encountered to form the beauty it is now, don't deny that. That IS our heritage.

Yes, educated people know these things, and far more important inventions than coffee: Arab world invented lots of important techniques, instruments and new approaches in medicine and science... some 500-800 years ago. At that time Christian Europe was just a religious horror (they killed millions of women, burned people etc etc.). But what muslim world is now??? Total degradation! Hardly couple of Noble laureats, poverty of entire nations in oil-free countries, including Jordan. Explain why :))

Well actually Arabs barely invented anything during that time. It was mostly Persian scientists who invented the stuff and Islam took credit.

Roses didn't ONLY grow in Iran, but Roses were cultivated and domesticated by Persians. Roses that we know today are not the same as desert roses. As you can hear she says ENGLISH rose. That specific kind of rose that we're talking about was first cultivated in Persia.

Queen Rania, I want to thank you for helping to spread awareness about the Middle East in such a gracious, open-minded, and educational manner. I am myself a young Canadian/American woman who lived for many years in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia and was astounded at the lack of understanding about the Arab world when my family and I moved back to the West.

I was asked several times if I had lived in a tent, rode a camel to school, or if I had ever seen a computer before! Moving back was very hard for all of my family as we missed the hospitality, pervasive sense of family and belonging, culture, fantastic food, bazaars, and great weather . I feel that your videos will shine light on a world that has been unfairly categorized as completely backwards and oppressive a view that I feel is due mainly to a lack of understanding and knowledge.

Although the Middle East certainly has a long ways to go, it is on the right path and in this effort is still holding strong to values (hospitality, respect, family, etc.) that some would say the West has, unfortunately, lately forgotten. The East and West have so much to offer to each other, as you have proudly shown. If we would only keep our hearts and minds open to your message

For those who doesn't like the idea of why arabs/muslims always talk about their civilized past. People have always seen arabs as the least civilized people ever lived. Some people would say that arabs were not and will never be civilized and always barbaric. This video is kind an answer to these accusations, most of the things that the west use was invented by an arab. Its not like that there were no civilization before us, and its not like we don't know anything about being civilized.

Once again,you have uploaded another fascinating video,focusing on the history&similarities that we ALL share on a daily basis in our lives. By focusing on the similarities between us,hopefully people will start&continue to respect each other&their differences too.
You are truly an example to both men and women all over the world today, and the people of Jordan are lucky to have such a charismatic Queen.
Thank you for this video&for all the amazing work that you do, it does not go unnoticed.

it is a great bit of history and a lot of the breakthroughs in the so clled dark ages where thanks to islamic influences but that was in a time when develepments in the field of medicine and culture where under a strict restriction from the katholic clergy wich banned all so called herretic teachings only thru the so called renesainse did we break that religious deadlock and start thinking for ourselfs

Thanks for the Video, it is true that Perfume and Class wear have not been invented in Europe. But they also have not been invented by Muslim poeple......At the time of The Persian Impair, 2,550 years ago, they had glass wears in which they kept their perfumes and use some of the glass wear for dining. They had insurance for all the workers how were building the Takhte Jamshod, and all people how were working for the government.

Great bits of history. I think it's important we don't get stuck with the notion of the European civilisation being the most advanced and developed one, and appreciate the contribution of other cultures.

ErichFranz,
The purpose is to break the cultural barriers ,many westerners think that Middle Easterners are nothing but blood thirsty monsters,they think we don't have inventors ,thinkers or educated people.
In their minds we r ALL terrorists just because some dozen terrorists that "attacked" WTC where middle easterners,and BTW the characters accused of performing the 911 has never been proven guilty,some are still alive and living in Lebanon even after driving a plane into WTC himself,strange
