1) Arabs are basically sheepherders and small time traders immediatly before
Muhammad's time.
2) Section Mohammed: He claimed to be the last Prophet. So he downloaded what
the latest version of what God’s will was. Not a complicated system. But simple.
3) By 630 A.D. he wins out and Islam is established. Mecca becomes the sacred
city.
4) All of Arabia is converted to Islam.
5) His death brought about a big crisis. He forgets to tell the Moslems that
after he dies, who will be the heir. What was to happen? He left no male
children that survived into adulthood. Ally closest heir to Mohammed should take
the mantle, but the inner circle close to Muhammad after he dies has different
ideas. By community decent Muhammad’s best friend become his successor.
6) The successor title will be called a Caliph. They are a time of about 500 years
before things change for them. A Caliph was not a prophet, but a leader of
Islam. He gives the communities examples on how to live. He is a secular leader
in the community. Also leads Islam into war. To 1200’s you have Caliphs lead the
Muslims in military wars.
7) Before Mohammed it was just pagan tribes of Muslims fighting each other.
After Mohammed records the law that Muslims are forbidden to fight each other.
What do the Muslims do for money? Pagan tribes would fight amongst each other .
This new rule made it difficult to raid fellow Muslims to steal money. Now you
cannot attack your fellow believers. [This will lead to attacking non-Arabs in
search for money. Still going on today]
8) So they can only attack non-believers now. This was to the north about the
Byzantine Empire region. They head out North in search of raiding villages and
story of pushover and weighted camels full of much loot. That it becomes real
and attribute it all to God!
Arab Conquests
1) 640 A.D. Muslims concur Egypt and take Jerusalem. They also concur Persia on
their way further east.
2) They concur much of the world. [Note: Western Civilization has crashed to a
non-civilization and has entered the dark ages. East takes over the literary and
civilization progress. They will transfer their progress back to the Western
Civilization sect about late 1200's.]
3) They will concur Spain and take Southern France until Charles Martlel in 732
will stop a large Muslim force invading from Spain. The Muslim large cavalry
will go deep into Gaul an Charles’s will rally his troops and stop them cold n
their tracks.
4) Muslims will take the East all the way to India. All this success is
attributed to God of the Muslims. “ Look how God is blessing us,” Muslims said.
5) No policy to convert the conquered people to Islam. Because of one important
law in Islam. “ You cannot tax a fellow Muslim.”
6) Rome was still more sophisticated than the Arabian Empire when they ruled
over them.
7) “If you convert concurred people you cannot tax them,” Muslims said.
8) So they do not convert the people to Islam. Allot of non-Muslim now live
under Muslim rule.
9) Nor do they know how to run the people- they just came out from the dessert
only knowing tribal trade etiquette. This was all brand new to them. They could
remember their shepherding days, but maintaining wide regional governments were
a huge shock to them. [ Note: Egypt and Sumerians and Macedonia and The Huns and
many others who concurred great civilizations because they became weak and they
were more the aggressors all seem to fail at maintaining what they had
concurred. Same goes for Greek and Rome and Egypt and Sumer. They mirrored the
Arabs in this respect. The Arabs will learn how to manage great distances and
become a operational system of governance that will hold together for a matter
of many centuries, until they will fall into the same rut of bickering and
slothfulness and leadership corruption that the western civilizations all could
not escape. We have a repeat system of rise and fall as west goes threw. Just as
the Sun rises - it soon will set. But in reality the Sun never sets it’s the
Earth that makes a daily eclipse [phases] of the Sun.
10) So the Arabs at the start do not know how to run these great masses. They
leave that up to the leaders who were in power already. They just taxed them and
made the important decisions. The Muslims are the privileged elite. They get
retirement and lots of money. The non-Muslims do al the work and for a long time
this goes on till the concurred people think of ways to get around this. “Lets
convert to Islam,” non-Muslim people said.
11) The Muslims see everyone converting and take a back-step. “ We need to make
a new law,” Muslims said. The Muslims make up a new rule that if you are not a
Muslim you have to pay taxes regardless if you convert or not. People see
Muslims as hypocrites to their own religion.
12) At first they didn’t complain, but it turns into resentment that boils over
into a revolt.
13) In 755 Abassid Revolt. Tax inequality started in Persia and makes it way to
the West Empire. The Caliph was slaughtered along with his wife and family. New
Caliph was set up.
14) New rule: No more discrimination - everyone was equal. Equal in tax base for
all. (They stop living by the words of the Koran.) Plus equal opportunity for
all stations of leadership and all races.
15) This improves the whole culture. [See: Greece culture] Improvements by the
leaps and bounds. This also causes the Islamic Empire to grow.
16) Now they look at libraries and books of the ancient cultures and get started
on become the for-front of the new progressions of literary accomplishments.
They will dive into all aspects of science and improve a new way to make
business a million times faster by creating adding and subtracting of numerals
easy to put into columns unencumbered by the Roman system that was
overwhelmingly confusing.
17) They learn to read, from all the lands they concurred. They learn all there
languages and speak many tongs (?) . And the Muslims are curious to what’s in
those Greek book’s.
18) Arise out of all this culture explosion come new Islamic scholars who devour
the gold mines of knowledge. The often do further research on these areas of
these books. Like medicine and investigations, Astronomy (Almagest was renamed
by them of Ptolemy’s Astronomy Mathematics’ of the Solar System. Almagest means
- -greatest [work].)
19) So they make allot of progress on these things. All the Stars names in the
sky are Arabic. Are Numerals are Arabic. Because adding and subtracting Roman
numerals was cumbersome. The Arabic was to use the decimal system. Only the
value changes with position which relation to them. It was a tremendous
achievement and like stated before business was pushed forward a million miles
ahead because of it. Islam comes into contact with new civilizations and they
found that these civilizations were using this decimal system. So they saw that
it was good. {Note: Biblical phrase} and adapted it for their own. This system
was invented in India about the time of Jesus. [Note: Thomas Jesus’ brother that
he sold into slavery made a huge impact on India] Indian merchants used it
because of its easy calculations. It was also introduced to Southern Asia.
Muslim saw vegetable traders using these numbers and the adoption were complete.
So it was all-tremendous because it has become the standard all of our world
used today and is made calculations easy.
20) Muslims in India also notice the hammer being used on iron. “ Wow!” Muslims
said. This will make the discovery of steel introduced to the world known as
Indian-Steel. So steel making is introduced.
21) Plus sugarcane in India was there for a long time. Arabs saw people chewing
on branches that looked like trees and asked, “ What is that?” So Arabs
introduced it to the Empire as well. This will be important as the first soft
drinks were made from sugarcane. How they made sugar. They dried it and carried
it into the public. Actually the Muslims created the soft drink. [Should they
get compensation/retributions from Pepsi and Coke?]
22) Candies are made out from this new brought over spice. It is added as a
taste enhancer. Well you can figure out the rest. (More rotten teeth: laugh)
23) India loved to play a lot of games and Chess was passed onto the Muslims.
Still today it is played all over the world and can be in competitions for
prestige as well as prizes. Most who play it say “ vary enjoyable.” Muslims will
pass it on to Egypt. They take it and spread it.
24) Then the Muslims see China. Writing “ Wow! That is expensive product to
buy,” Muslims said. China first was printing on animal skins. And animal skins
have always had good prices for whatever the user of it desires. The Chinese had
been using wood block printing. But they discovered something else that they
were unaware what it was. “ White pieces of paper with words on it.” Paper had
been discovered and Chinese [Mongols] were galloping along at civilization
progress. [While the west was in the Dark! {Ages}]
25) Result: Paper is being widely used in Europe now.
26) Muslims see windmills. “ What’s that?” Muslims said. So they pick it up from
China and prance it back over to Europe to use it as the first water pushers to
get water into the desert areas.
27) China is tinkering around with chemicals. Those Chinese always up to
something. “Poof!” Gunpowder is born. This will change the west and eventually
the whole world. Dictators can be absolutely safe with knights and Armies. But
once you cannot see your assailants because he is hid behind bushes. There is no
way for you to keep your slave from killing you because you are evil. It will
help establish the greatest Democratic nation the world has ever seen. It will
fuel massive slaughtering of humans in minuets instead of hours and days. Thus
quickening the result of death. It will equal out the Noble who forces serfs to
slave for them to be equal. It will destroy the elite and make them humble. It
will make a weak man strong, as an elixir was search after in historic myths. No
more forced slavery for those who could get their hands on one of these elixirs.
It revolutionized the world.
28) The Chinese first used this new concoction at their celebrations and
festivals. They made tiny rockets and bangers and smoke bombs. The biggest fire
crackers were used for bombs intended for war. They blew up walls. Then bamboo
guns come into play and first gun is invented.
29) First to discover magnetic rocks would go north and south- the compass.
First was used in flat lands probably large areas of desert not on the seas.
Later it will be used on ships made for navigation.
30) This is an example of cultural transference going on. [West is illiterate
and nobles keep down most of the population as ignorant slaves- we call this
Dark Ages]
31) Summery: Arabs had talent to see good things and adopt it and bring it into
the Arab Empire. And then Europe sees it at the Arab Empire and it’s transferred
over to the west.
32) So Arabs are advanced now the west is on darkness.
33) All this impressiveness last until 1256. Then come the dreaded Mongols! Who
will concur most of the known world. From; Poland, East Germany all of Hungary,
Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Iran, Russia, Greece, Turkey, China, Northern India,
North and South Korea, and the entire Middle Eastern Asia. “Put it this way!
They Dominated!”
MONGOLS
1) They Capture the Caliph who was reigning and do not sin against him. They
thought he was a sinner, but a holy man. So they didn’t want to Chop his head
off. “ How do we kill a Caliph without getting God mad at us,” Mongols said.
They rolled him up in a carpets and each soldier took turns shaking the carpet
till he dies. [A type of shake and bake.]
2) No more Caliph now, so the Arab Empire breaks up!
3) A new fad arises out of all of this! God is not creating any more victory for
the Arabia now that Mongols are the new kids on the block. “How can I get a
one-to-one relationship with God,” Arabs said. Well the new fad will be that
they turn toward monastic life. The best Arabs put their focus into these things
now instead of science and civil-progress. So this discontinuity broke up the
Empire. And today most of the Muslims are living in the Dark ages [except for a
few rich ones- that can mirror the noble-land owners who treaded the rest of the
population like slaves. {Serfs}]
4) Arab final Summery: In a time lost they had achieved a great thing. They
preserved and progressed on the knowledge of our [the whole world] world and
recovered what the west lost during wars and stupidity. Through the Muslim world
each and everyone must give them thanks because they would eventually pass it
back to use and we would use it to get out of the hole we dug for ourselves.

Maghreb (Moghreb), meaning “west” in Arabic, is identified
by some to be the region of Africa that is north of the Sahara desert and west
of the Nile – specifically, the modern countries of Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia,
and to a lesser extent Libya and Mauritania.
2007 The ‘Islamic Maghreb” ( Knights of the Islamic Maghreb)
joined Al Qa’eada – and were formally the Salafist Group for Preaching and
Combat, against Al Qa’eada. There activities have spread to Niger and
Mauritania. In the 1990s they battled the Algeria authorities and cost 10,000
lives. In October of 2009, a French intelligence report citing a contractor
analysis from CERN, Geneva, was arrested for ‘allegedly’ handing over
information on potential nuclear factory sites in Europe. See Brice Hortefeux,
French Interior Ministry.
