Over a thousand years ago, Europe experienced one of its greatest periods of cultural enlightenment.

For more than three centuries in Medieval Spain, Muslims, Jews and Christians lived together and prospered in a thriving multicultural civilization. Here, remarkable individuals of different faiths made lasting contributions in such areas as poetry, art, architecture, music, dining etiquette, science, agriculture, medicine, engineering, navigation, textiles, and even hydraulic technology.

Their rich, complex culture reached a high point in the Mediterranean Middle Ages. However, larger forces in conquest of land and power brought about puritanical judgments, absolutism and religious extremism. The conflict they triggered extinguished the shared learning that once flourished in this enlightened land

  • @carameloxx gracias amigo

  • @0adil0 el islam no es una rasa

  • @auscorpio7 israel doesnt belong to israel, israel belongs to palestine.

    israel never had land, the jews were travellers and had no land.

    they were abused and had no respect were ever they went.

    with the help of america they stole land of palestine.

    therefore its an unfair way to take land.

  • @carameloxx USTE STUPIDO, RACISTO.

    MARICA, TU LOCA..AHAH!

  • FUCKEN MUSLIM...ALA MUERTE CON TODOS LOS MUSULMANES DEL MUNDO...PRIMERO FUERON LOS ROMANO Y DEPUES ELLOS..Y LOD TODOS BUSCARON LA MUERTE VIVA ESPANA

  • @politicaltourist: Ok, if you look at the four letters in the old testament, in the Hebrew Language, they spell out when said: ''Mahamadim'' as you said. These same four letters are similar to the Arabic letters making up the word ''Muhammad''. If you Translate  those four Hebrew letters, You get the word Muhammad. I have seen a Rabbi, In Jerusalem, reciting the verses concerned, and explaining that the word is Muhammad. So according to some Hebrew speaking Jewish rabbis, The word Is Muhammad.

  • @mjay22 Tell that to the hundreds of thousands of people, both Muslims and Christians who have been slaughtered, beheaded and bombed by MUSLIMS suicide bombers and "holy" Jihadists in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan etc in the past few years!

  • @auscorpio7 The only prophecy Muhammad ever made was proven wrong. You can find it in quran, surat Al Rum 1-5 which says the Romans will be victorious (or defeated depending on the punctuation which did not exist during Muhammad's lifetime and was inserted only after the various versions of Quran were burnt by Othman!), and then be defeated again (or be victorious again depending on which punctuation dots you choose) AFTER A FEW YEARS. This denoted 3-9 years by Muhammad in Hadith but took 15 yrs

  • @ProudMuslim2010 Muhammad is not mentioned in the old testament by name. Mahmadim isnt a refference to Muhammad. Go learn some hebrew grammar and find out why instead of blindly following third world Islami "scholars" that spread false info. Most learned Islamic imams will back my statements on this issue btw...

  • @Sipahi100 The book exists and it is called The Bible. It is available in most good book stores so I suggest you buy one. Once you read it with an open heart you will realize that Satan is very clever and cunning. That may explain a lot of things about why Islam is the "fastest growing way of life both demographically and in terms of coverts"...
