ISLAMIC HISTORY &

HISTORIC MOSQUES

Sign of Tolerance or Dominance?


Barry Bench
INTRODUCTION
 In case you have not heard. They are attempting to and in all
likelihood will build a 15 story Mosque. It gets worse, they
want to open it on 9-11-11 the 10th anniversary of the 9-11
attack.

 The people funding this Mosque are


foreign sources. They claim they are
trying to build bridges between
Muslims and Non-Muslims. And they
want to open it on the 10th
anniversary.
 The facade is eerily similar to the
World Trade Center Building
INTRODUCTION CONT.
 I originally just wanted to explain the MOSQUE and their
importance in a single document. My research has taken me far
deeper than I had expected to go and have to break this into two
documents.
 First to cover the Historical aspects
 Second to cover the spread Islam in a Political Correct
environment.
 In the first part I hope to cover:
 How can they consider this building bridges?
 Have they ever done anything like this before?
 What exactly do they mean by a Religion of Peace?
 Is Islam just a Religion?
 What are some of the fundamental things we should know
about Islam and Muslims?
 Historically what is meant by the Sword of Islam?
 What is Sharia Law?
 This is an attempt to take a historical look at how Islam so rapidly
spread?
 Is it a Religion or a Geo-Political Movement?
 How have Muslims treated people of different religions and why?
 Look at the difference between Shia and Sunni
 What exactly is Wahhabism?
 What role does the Muslim Brotherhood have today
 What strategies are they currently employing?
 Are the Muslim Brotherhoods strategies working?
 I hope to answer most if not all of these questions as we go
through time and look at the history of the Islam.
ISRAEL IN BIBLICAL TIMES
 Just to show in historical aspect, Israel once spread into parts
of Sinai, Syria, Jordan and Iraq.
ISLAM RELIGION OF PEACE?
 The rise of Islam was not one of Peace. It became known as
the Sword of Islam. Literally taking land and converting the
inhabitants or beheading them.
 They were able to keep a relative peace throughout their
sphere of influence.
 darb el Islam Literally means
within Islam Sphere of
influence, and a state of
Peace . This is where you can
apply a religion of peace.
 darb el harb Literally means
outside Islam Sphere of
influence, and in a state of
war that will fall to Islam
 In 622 CE Hijira - Muhammad and followers flee to Medina.
Islamic calendar (AH, Anno Hegirae) begins
 This known as the Hijra, it was a tactic of immigrating
to a new area grow their numbers and then take over
the area and then force the original inhabitants to
submit to Islam and eventually convert.
 The act of deception know as Taquiya. Taquiya permits
Muslims to deceive and lie to Non-Muslims. They can
act as if they are not plotting against the original
inhabitants while raising the blade to slaughter them
behind their backs.
ISLAM RELIGION OF PEACE?
 Then Muhammad, without sufficient arms to conquer his
hometown of Mecca, negotiated and promised to stop
terrorizing his kin for ten years. The agreement had the
Meccans allow him to visit idols known as the Ka'aba.
 The merchants of Mecca honored the agreement. The
Muslims did not honor the agreement.
 Then after only a single year, Muhammad and his Muslim
followers conquered his hometown of Mecca, imposing
Islam under the shade of their swords.
 This is the birth of a Peaceful Religion? Muhammad was
supposed to be Allah's Messenger, and thus a man of his
word, Islam's lone prophet revealed the 9th Surah of the
Qur'an which states that any treaty between Muslims and
Infidels is not binding on the Muslims.
 From the very beginning the use deception and legal lies
to conceal their true aim. This is acceptable to Muslims
and as we see is part of their Qur‟an
 How is the WEST to deal with a people
who as part of their religious beliefs that
any agreement between Muslims and
Non-Muslim is not binding to the
Muslims?
 Would is the limit to these acts of
deceptions and outright lies.
WHAT HAPPENED TO THE JEWS OF
QURAYZA TRIBE AND KHAYBAR?
 The Qurayza Massacre
 In AD 627, Muhammad committed an
atrocity against the last remaining
major tribe of Jews in Medina: the
Qurayza. He beheaded the men and
the pubescent boys and enslaved the
women and children.
 Over 800 men and boys (and at least one woman)
from the Qurayza tribe were beheaded by the
prophet of Islam Muhammad.
 This is the start of the religion and they claim Islam is
a peaceful religion.
 Also the claim that it Islam is the heir to Christianity

 The Battle of Khaybar was fought in the year 629 between


Muhammad and his followers against the Jews living in the
oasis of Khaybar, located 150 kilometers (95 miles) from
Medina
 A classic precedent of the dhimma was an agreement between
Muhammad and the Jews of Khaybar
 When the Jews of Khaybar surrendered to Muhammad.
Muhammad allowed them to remain in Khaybar in return for
handing over to the Muslims one half of their annual produce.
 In essence he was permitting them to stay and were little
more than his slaves or share croppers.
ISLAM SPREADS THOUGH THE HOLY LAND
 Following the death of the Prophet
 Islam spread across the North Africa
 In 633 CE Muslim conquests (Futuhat)
begin.
 In 633-42 CE Muslim armies take the
Fertile Crescent (Egypt, Syria, Palestine,
Mesopotamia), North African coast, parts of
Persian and Byzantine Empires
 Once in the Holy City of
Jerusalem
 Two Structures are
built in place of the
Jewish Temple
 Dome of the
Rock
 Al-Aqsa
Mosque
 Two Definitions you must understand
 The Caliph and Caliphate are extremely important to people
that practice the Islamic faith.
 Caliphate is the governance for all of Islam;

 Caliph is the spiritual Head of State for all of Islam


FIRST SIGNS OF DOMINANCE
 The Dome of the Rock is
located at the visual center of
a platform known as the
Temple Mount
 It was constructed over the
site of the Second Jewish
Temple which was destroyed
during the Roman Siege of
Jerusalem in 70 CE.
 In 637 CE Jerusalem was conquered by the Rashidun
Caliphate army during the Muslim conquest of Syria
 650 CE Caliph Uthman has the Qur'an written down
 Jesus is not viewed as the Son of God but rather is
considered a lesser prophet and is portrayed as inferior
to Muhammad.
 The Dome of the Rock was erected between 689 and 691 CE
 Note again built on top of Temple Mount, is it an act of
building bridges or displaying dominance?
FIRST SIGNS OF DOMINANCE
 The al-Aqsa Mosque was originally a small prayer house built
by the Rashidun caliph Umar, on top of the remains of Jewish
Temple
 After a couple Earthquakes and rebuilding another
earthquake destroyed most of al-Aqsa in 1033 CE, but
two years later the Fatimid caliph Ali az-Zahir built another
mosque which has stood to the present-day
 When the Crusaders captured Jerusalem in 1099 CE, they
used the mosque as a palace and church, but its function
as a mosque was restored after its recapture by Saladin.
 Today, the Old City of Jerusalem is under Israeli control,
but the mosque remains under the administration of the
Palestinian-led Islamic waqf.
 Once a land falls under darv el Islam, the land is then
ordained as Islamic Land for all time. If the land should
fall out of the Sphere of Islam, all Muslims were and are
required to take it back.
BEING SUBMISSIVE TO ISLAM
 darb el Salah This is a land of the people of the Book, Jews
and Christians.
 . ahl al Kitab The people of the book, Jews and Christians
 While they were tolerated, they were submissive and needed to
progress to Islam.
 Covenant of Omar was paying tribute in a humiliating manner
of the back of their hands
 The ahl al kitab were to always hold a position inferior to the
Muslims
 The ahl al kitab Jews were required to wear distinctive yellow
clothes, Christians wore blue clothes
 The ahl al kitab had to pay special additional taxes (jiziya poll tax
and haradj produce tax),
 The ahl al kitab were prohibited to ride horses or wearing swords.
 The caliphs and jurists also prohibited rituals and activities
that drew too much public attention to Christianity,
 such as bell ringing or excessively loud chanting in church
 Restrictions on processions and funerals were common for
the same reasons.
 While Non-Muslims Christians and Jew were permitted they were
beneath Muslims in stature in Muslim Society
 This is still true today
 Restrictions were placed on building of new or the repairing of
existing Churches and Synagogues. Thus their houses of
worship would simply collapse over time.
THE SWORD OF ISLAM
CONTINUES TO SPREAD
 The spread of Islam was done by conquest
 661 CE Ali is murdered; Mu'awiya becomes caliph.
Beginning of Umayyad Caliphate (661-750).
 680 CE Death of Husayn marks beginning of the Shi'at Ali
("party of Ali") or Shi'a sect.
 685-705 Reign of Abd al-Malik
 Centralization of administration - Arabic becomes official
written language
 Arab coinage is established
 As Islam spread they force people to submit and some
into slavery. In East Africa is was Zanj (Mogadishu)
 They stole wealth from the conquered land.
 3 days of Pillage was the custom for the victors in this era.
CONQUEST OF SPAIN
 710 CE Arab armies enter Spain from North Africa
 Great Mosque of Córdoba
 The building was begun in approximately 600 CE as the
Christian Visigothic church of St. Vincent
 Hijra immigration of Spain by Muslims.

 They moved in in such numbers and the Muslims did


not assimilate but grew their own numbers and start
converting the locals.
 This is common practice today, when the Muslim
community have enough in numbers
 Make Demands of acceptance

 As their rank grow they increase demands to build


Mosque and tend to not assimilate but rather keep to
themselves to increase their numbers and political
influence
 Convert the local from other religion to Islam

 Then set area off limits to outsiders.


CONQUEST OF SPAIN
 Great Mosque of Córdoba
 To truly understand the ramifications of the Córdoba
Mosque one must look no further than the definition of
darv el Islam
 Once a land falls under darv el Islam, the land is then
ordained as Islamic Land for all time. If the land
should fall out of the Sphere of Islam, all Muslims
were and are required to take it back
 This is true for all of Israel and this may shock you
Spain and half of France.
 In the 8th Century Islam had captured all of the Iberian
Peninsula that include modern day Portugal and Spain.
What most people do not remember they had captured
land into France before they would be stopped. The
Muslim forces went all the way into France to the town of
Tours.
 Tours is about 120 miles
south west of present day
Paris.
 At the time Muslim forces
were driving further north
into Europe. Muslims were
capturing more territory
spreading eastward into
Persia towards India
THE SPREAD OF ISLAM IS HALTED
 The Battle of Tours
 During Islam initial spread via conquest it grew
unimpeded for 120 years
 The Battle of Tours was the first organize army they met

 It pitted the European forces with an estimated


15,000 against a much larger force of 80,000
Muslims
 It was a battle against an army of the Umayyad
Caliphate led by „Abdul Rahman Al Ghafiqi.

 Charles Martel is leader of


Christian forces at the
Battle of Tours, his forces
stopped the Umayyad
invasions of Europe.
 This painting is showing
Martel on the left and
Ghafiqi on the right
 Ghafiqi was killed in the battle and the Sword of Islam was
stopped in the west
 Though defeated in the Battle Tours, they still controlled Spain
 Abbasids defeated Umayyads in 750 CE
 In its short existence to this date Islam is spread by conquest
THE FOUNDATION IS SET
 First understand that Islam is more than just a religion that
relies on the Qur‟an. It was initially spread by conquest
 The Hadith is Islam's books of Jurisprudence. Hadith are
narrations originating from the words and deeds of the
Islamic prophet Muhammad.
 Angels; the belief of Angels or Messengers of God and are
critical to the Islamic Faith.
 The Qur'an and Sunnah also contain laws of inheritance,
marriage, and restitution for injuries and murder, prohibits
insurance viewed as gambling..
 The belief that God has predetermined everything but
man has a free will to chose right or wrong.
 The Five Pillars
 Faith · Prayer - Charity · Fasting · Pilgrimage

 Religion and State


 With Sharia Law comes a governance. Whether it is a
Theocratic rule like in present day Iran or the Secular
leadership in Saudi Arabia. They are both eliminate
personal Liberties and removes personal freedoms.
Sharia or Islamic law covers all aspects of life, from
matters of state, like governance and foreign relations, to
issues of daily living.
 Islam Dietary Restrictions
 Prohibited foods include pork products, blood, carrion,
and alcohol. Food permissible for Muslims is halal food.
THE FOUNDATION IS SET
 Jihad, what does it mean? First understand it in the context of
these two definitions
 darb el Islam Literally means within Islam Sphere of
influence, and a state of Peace . This is where you can
apply a religion of peace.
 darb el harb Literally means outside Islam Sphere of
influence, and in a state of war that will fall to Islam
 Once land is darb el Islam, If the land should fall out of the
Sphere of Islam, it is the duty of all Muslims to take it back.
 Next thing you must understand there are different types
of Jihad.
 An internal struggle to maintain faith
 The struggle to improve the Muslim society
 The struggle in a holy war
 Next not only does Islam aggressively try to dominate those
outside the darv el Islam
 Different sect seek to dominate each other.

 There are several sects within Islam, two of which are


predominate, like Catholic and Protestant split.
 Sunni are the largest of all sects. It makes up about 80-
85% of Islam
 Shia are second largest of all sects. It makes up about
15% of Islam
THE SUNNI AND SHIITES SPLIT
 Where did the split occur?
 After Muhammad‟s death in 632
 One side believed that direct descendants of the prophet
should take up the mantle of the caliph, this was similar to
Royal descendents. Known as Imam
 They were known as the Shiat-
Ali, or "partisans of Ali," after the
prophet's cousin and son-in-law
Ali, whom they favored to
become caliph. They would
become know as Shiites
 Imam Ali Mosque in Najaf, Iraq,
where Ali is buried
 The other side thought that any worthy
man could lead the faithful, regardless
of lineage
 They favored Abu Bakr, an early convert
to Islam who had married into
Muhammad's family. "Sunni" is derived
from the Arab word for "followers" and is
shorthand for "followers of the prophet.“
 They were known as Caliphs and ruled as
the Caliphate.
 Abu Bakr became the first Caliph of
Islam.
 Abu Bakr ordered the teachings of
Muhammad to be placed in writing and it
would become the Holy Quran.
THE SWORD OF ISLAM IS RAISED AGAIN
 The next chapter in Islam's History is Hadith were
written. The Hadith is the sayings of the Prophet.
 Bagdad became the center point for political power
within the Ummah, (Muslim Community). The Koran is
translate from Greek to Arabic.
 The Zanj Slaves Rebellion 869-883 CE
 In the city of Basra led by Ali Razi
 Al-Muwaffaq with the aid of Egyptian forces defeated
Ali Razi returning the city and Ali Razi head to
Bagdad.
 Islam starts to fight among themselves.
 908 First Fatimid caliph in Tunisia.
 928 Umayyad Abd ar-Rahman III declares himself
caliph in Cordoba.
 940 Muhammad al-Mahdi, the twelfth imam,
disappears. Twelvers still await the future return of
the "Hidden Imam."
 945 The Buyids (Persian) invade Baghdad and take
power from caliph.
 969 Fatimids gain power in Egypt and attack
Palestine, Syria, and Arabia. Cairo (Al-Qahira, "the
victorious city") is founded.
THE BATTLES CONTINUE
 West Africa begins to convert to Islam
 Spread thin and strife within Islam looses its grip on the
Iberian Peninsula.
 Umayyad caliphate in Cordoba defeated by the Christian
Reconquista and all Jews and Muslims are forced out of
Spain.
 Sicily falls to the Normans, Crusader kingdoms are
briefly established in Palestine and Syria.
 1099 CE Christian Crusaders take Jerusalem.
Understand that when Muslims took the holy land
they permitted pilgrimages to go to the old city.
When they were stop is when the Crusades started.
 1171 CE Fatimid power ends in Egypt with the
conquests of Saladin
 Saladin recaptures the Old City of
Jerusalem.
 Saladin used the tactic of
surrounding the city and starving
them out. This is known as a
Siege
 Baghdad Abbasid caliphate was
preparing for an all out assault
on Europe when out of the east
came Ghengis Kkan
 Khan enter Persia and takes Punjab to the south.
THE RISE OF THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE
 In the mid 1300 Uthman starts the Ottoman Empire.
They capture Bursa in what is now Northwest Turkey.
They make it their capital.
 They move the capital to Adrianople and capture
Balkans
 In 1453 Mehmet conquers the Byzantine capital of
Constantinople.
 They took over the Hagia Sophia, Mehmet, the sultan,
immediately went the pulpit of Santa Sophia and
proclaimed- that there is no God but Allah, and
Muhammad is his prophet. Clearly an act of
dominance
 Overtime the 4 Minarets were added
THE REIGN OF THE OTTOMANS
 In another act of dominance over all other religions.
Constantinople, which was named after Constantine
who move the capital of the Roman Empire out of Rome
and built the Byzantine Empire of Christians roots in its
place. Constantinople after its fall to Mehmet forces
and rename it to Istanbul.
 The Sultans that followed expanded the Empire starting
with Albania, Crimea, Persia, Syria and Egypt, then
Mecca and Medina in Saudi Arabia. Unifying them all
under a single Caliph and amassing a larger and larger
army. Algeria and Tunisia, Libya. This expansion also
included Southern Europe venturing into Prussia and
Russia. They capture Belgrade.
 1529 CE The Ottomans expansion continue until the
Siege of Vienna. They were forced to retreat form
Vienna. Then Hungary falls to the Ottomans.
 Iraq is annexed.
 For 700 years now Islam has sought to take over all
lands and force the submission of Judaic – Christians
and does not tolerate the existence of another religion.
 The Ottoman united the majority of Muslim land under
one Caliphate and a central government.
THE REIGN OF THE OTTOMANS
 Ottoman Empire had taken control of Muslims land and
instituted a central government. But they fail to
advance with the Western Societies in the Industrial
age. Instead they relied on the passion of faith and the
fear their dominance to spread. While they had
manpower. They had reached their capacity to venture
far from cities for supplies.

 The Ottoman Empire was at its Zenith entering 1683.


 The west was terrified of the spread of the Ottoman
Influence
THE REIGN OF THE OTTOMANS
 September 11th
 This date is extremely significant to Muslims through out the
world. This was a date of shame for the Muslim World.
 The Siege of Vienna by the Ottoman forces were led by the
Grand Vizier Kara Mustafa. On July 14, the Turks reached
Vienna. They laid siege to the city.
 Largely to inferior
artillery they could not
breach its walls.
 Mustafa was on verge
of starving them out
when Europeans allies
arrived to end the
siege.
 The Gates of Vienna September 11th 1683 Christian armies
led by Jan III Sobieski, the King of Poland, arrived at the
Gates of Vienna.
 This was an epic battle that saw a coalition of European
forces of 80,000 vs. the Ottomans estimated 150,000 -
300,000 troops.
 The Ottomans were decimated and lost all of its artillery
pieces.
 From this date on Islam would lose more and more land.
 Reminder again once land is ordained as Islamic land it
is Religiously ordained for all time, they will continue to
try and reclaim territory that they have lost
ISLAM A RELIGION OF PEACE?
 Quick review of the Spread of Islam
 Done via Conquest
 Convert or Die mentality
 Spread unabated for 1,000 years via wars and ethnic and
religious cleansing.
 From the Qurayza Massacre in 627 where Muhammad with
his own hands beheaded 800 Jewish Men and Boys. Through
September 10th 1683 the spread of Islam in reality was
known as the Sword of Islam.
 After September 11th 1683 it was the decline of the Ottoman
Empire beginning with the Treaty of Karlowitz. The Great
Turkish wars were concluded with the Ottomans surrendering.
ISLAM FIRST ATTACKS ON AMERICA
 Prior to the founding of our country, Pirates used to capture
and pillage vessels in the open sea. They were drunken
barbarians except for the Barbary Coast Pirates. The Barbary
Coast Pirates were Slave traders that would capture merchant
ships and ransom their crew. It was a lucrative trade for these
state sponsored terrorist.

 The West pretty much went along


with it England and France ruled
the seas but paid these ransoms to
prevent interference. Thomas
Jefferson feared that there would
be no stopping them. He to noted
that these were not just Pirates but
rather state sponsored and had to
be dealt with.
 Then the first Islamic attack occurred on the US. 11 American
Flag Merchant ships were seized by the Barbary coast Pirates.
Capturing and enslaving 100 men. By the time America paid
the ransom, 15 had died in captivity. This is why Thomas
Jefferson decided to read the Koran. Upon completing it he
understood the only way to deal with these Pirates was by
force.
 England, France and America went to war and France took
over Tripoli. And ended the reign of the Barbary Coast Pirates
THE FALL OF THE OTTOMANS
 From then on Ottomans continue to decline and then even
lost control of Egypt in 1805 to an independence movement
away from the Ottomans but still under Islamic rule.
 Islam losing its submissive grip within the Ottoman Empire
when 1850 Non-Muslims are granted equality with Muslims.
 Abd al-Hamid II tries to return the autocratic and religious rule
from 1876-1908. Islam is again demanding submission.
 Then came WWI and the Ottomans alliance with Germany.
THE FALL OF THE OTTOMANS
ARMENIAN GENOCIDE
 WWI marked the end of the Ottoman Empire.
 League of Nations grants
 Britain mandatory status over Palestine and Iraq
 France over Lebanon and Syria.
 Young Turks fought for an Independent Turkey and Remove the
Caliph.
 1923 is the Republic of Turkey is established and the Ottomans
600 year reign ends and Europe no longer lives in fear of its
neighbor to the south.
 The Genocide they do not teach in History class
 During this time a Genocide of Historic proportion occurred. It
happened to the Christian Armenians. It was carried out against
three separate Ethnic/Religious groups.
 The Christians were tolerated but were submissive to the
Ottomans rulers. They were second class citizens.
 The first started on April 24th 1915. 300 Intellectuals were
rounded up and killed. 5,000 Armenians were slaughter in
the streets of Constantinople. It occurred in three phases.

 The Armenian Genocide


was directed by a
Special Organization set
up by the Committee,
which created special
"BUTCHER BATTALIONS,"
made up of violent
criminals released from
prison.
THE FALL OF THE OTTOMANS
ARMENIAN GENOCIDE
 The Second Phase involved moving the remaining Armenians
to slave labor encampments.
 This is where the Young Turk/Ottomans/Muslims
disarmed the Armenians. Then they were marched into
prison camps.
 Armenians were taken from all parts of Turkey and not
just the war zones. They denied them water or food.
 Many were loaded onto barges and sent out to the Black
Sea and then the Barges were sunk.
 The Third Phase During
WWI they massed to move
them across the
mountains to the south
into Syria.
 They slaughtered 1.5
million of the 2 million
Armenians that lived under
Ottoman rule
THE FALL OF THE OTTOMANS
GREEK GENOCIDE
 The Second of the Genocides carried out by the Turks
was against the Greeks.
 Seeking to Ethnically cleanse the Muslim lands of
outside religious and ethnic groups
 One of the acts of cleansing was to remove the Ethnics
Greeks
 It led to the Greco-Turkish War. 1919-1923 and the
massacre of Ethnic Greeks in Turkey.
 It is estimated that between 700,000 and 800,000
Greeks civilians were slaughtered
 The Sea Port City of Smyrna was deliberately burned to
the ground to drive them out
THE FALL OF THE OTTOMANS
ASSYRIAN GENOCIDE
 The Assyrian Christians numbered about 1 million
before the start of WWI, largely in Turkey, Iraq and Iran
all of which were under the Ottoman Empires control
 The Assyrians were persecuted prior to the war and
were summarily massacred like what happened in
Hamidian 1895-96
 This included one of the worse atrocity in history. In the
city of Urfa were 3,000 Armenians seeking shelter
inside a Cathedral. The Turkish army set it on fire and
shot anybody trying to escape.
 The Armenians sided with the British and would pay
dearly for that alliance
 It led directly to
reprisals from
the Turkish
forces during
the war and
continued after
the war
POST OTTOMAN EMPIRE
 Now that the Ottomans had consolidate their holdings and
cleansed the lands. The Young Turks forced out the Muslim
Monarch and the Republic of Turkey was formed and Islam
was its prominent religion
 The Caliph no longer existing ruling over all of Islam.
 The Last Caliph was Abdülmecid II and was
expelled from Turkey in 1924.
 Post WWI the Map and territorial holdings
changed instead of the Ottomans control
most of the Mid-East the British and French
now controlled it.
 The Muslim would look at them as occupiers and infidels.
 Turkey would also force out the Kurds in Eastern Turkey. The
Kurds are of Iranian or Persian Descent and Primarily Sunni
Muslim.
 Note the map shows British Mandate of Palestine and
includes what is Israel and Jordan
THIS TROUBLED LAND
 Just to show in historical aspect, Israel once spread into parts
of Sinai, Syria, Jordan and Iraq.
 In historical aspect there
were no Ethnic Palestinian
people
 There was no Palestine
state until the ROMANS
conquered the Jewish state
of Judea and named it
Palestine
 The map shows the
Philistia this is were the
biblical Philistines were.
 The Philistine were actually
Greek and not of Arab
Descent.
 Palestine was no longer on
the map once the Ottoman
Empire took control
 Palestine resurfaced once
the British Mandate after
WWI
 The British Mandate
planned the return of the
Jewish State
THE BIRTH OF THE BROTHERHOOD
 Perhaps the most significant thing that happened between
the World Wars was created at a result of the Caliph being
removed from Turkey. There was no Caliph in to rule over
Muslims.
 The Muslim Brotherhood was founded in 1928. Founded by
Hasan al-Banna. The Brotherhood seeks to spread
Wahhabism and provides Jihadia training.
 The Brotherhood was founded in accordance with al-Banna‟s
proclamation that Islam be “given hegemony over all matters
of life.” Accordingly, the Brotherhood seeks to establish an
Islamic Caliphate spanning the entire Muslim world.
 They have grown to be
among the most influential
Sunni Muslim organizations
in the world.
 The Brotherhood wants to
impose Sharia Law through
out the world..
 During the 1930‟s it was largely an underground organization
in Egypt. It grew in response to the unpopularity of the
installed Monarch.
 During the 1940‟s grew and challenged the Egyptian
government and including the killing Egyptian Prime Minister
Mahmoud Fahmi Nuqrashi. al-Banna was killed by Cairo
Police forces and the Egyptian Government clamped down on
the Brotherhood. They failed to end the Brotherhood and it
would come back to haunt them at a later time.
POST WWI TO WWII
 With the borders being redrawn by the West and then ruled by
the west. The inevitable revolts came. Again darb el Islam
requires Muslims to recapture this a land.
 The map shows
the Liberation
date for each of
the mid east
nations.
 1922-24 Sunni
and Shia
Muslims revolt
in Iraq.
 1932 Iraq is granted its freedom and King Feisal
 Iranian Leader Reza Shah Pahlavi became an admirer of
Adolf Hitler.
 1935 Persia is renamed to Iran. Which in translations means
“Land of the Aryans”.
 Iran permitted the Gestapo to set up camp to agitate the
British in Bagdad.
 Reza Shah Pahlavi bought a Steel Mill from Germany.
 Reza Shah Pahlavi was forced off his throne by the British in
1941 and replaced by his son.
 Perhaps no Border settled in the League
of Nations has had the lasting impact
that the borders of TransJordan and the
British Mandate to create a Jewish
homeland.
WWII AND
THE MUFTI OF JERUSALEM
 Another thing forgotten with history is the Mufti of
Jerusalem Hajj Amin al-Husseini. Shows Arab hatred of
Jews before Israel existed. Mufti was also involved in the
Armenian genocide.
 Some would argue he is the reason
there will never be a Mid-East
Peace. Before WWII there were
active Arab factions supporting
cooperative development of
Palestine involving Arabs and Jews.
Amin al-Husseini had previously
caused 1920 attack on Jews in
