Blessed day of Jumuah. This is Masjid Bayazin
Granada, and this is actually the last Masjid
that Jumuah was prayed in in Granada.
So you think about how Islamophobia
rises
and exhibits itself. So this is the Masjid
now that's open in Granada in 2003 through
community. May Allah bless them. But the condition
was that the minaret at the masjid
had to be
shorter than the minaret of the church
next to it. Think about what we fight
about, guys. Think about about what we argue
and divide over,
and you think about what's right
across the Masjid.
What was lost because of our disunity?
That's Alhambra.
Alhambra.
Yeah. Whatever
we have lost is because we're fighting ourselves.
Some of people may, especially harsh hearted people,
may ask why didn't they resist, why didn't
they fight back. Well, there was attempts
in this area. It's gone now. It was
a place where they used to meet
during the reconquest.
It actually wasn't a reconquest. Right? It was
a conquest
of Andalusi,
the Catholics, because many of Spaniards were Muslims.
And there was a family from the Umayyads
who actually lived in this area, and they
would meet here. And they killed them. They
massacred them on Christmas
Eve. And that was one of the last
sort of lights of revolt that was happening
in the area. So this is an actual
minaret except for the cross Nabel that's preserved
as it was from the time of the.
You can see that it's connected to
what was previously.
This unity has an ugly price, man.
So
these were Andalusian
people's homes.
This one was taken over by somebody, but,
and then,
Abu Bakr, who's with me, said this
actually, on the inside, still has the design
from, like, the 14th century.
So this this, according to brother was a
place where a righteous person was buried and
people would visit. There's some verses of Quran
there, I think.
It's hard to see.
But what he said is very interesting
that Like, they even destroyed the the dead,
their graves. Everything was destroyed,
man. So, this Masjid Masjid
area called Al Mansurah, if you're from Egypt,
you know, Mansurah and Masjid. This is every
Friday where the will come
for the general public and give answers and
guidance to the people.
So the scholars were accessible to the masses.
This area is called Al Mansoora,
not the old square,
Granada.
So this is a Han,
which is like a hotel for merchants.
This one actually is preserved from the 14th
century, which is the golden age of Granada,
and this is
where the animals would come and get their
water from. Of course, now it's
something very different,
but it's actually been preserved. There were 6
in Granada.
This is this is the front of the
sun, and you can still see the Araby.
So this soup actually is from the 14th
century, and
it's specialized in harir and deheb, which was
only gold and silk.
So this is Grenada. Tomorrow
hope to go with this awesome group, and
they have a really cool tour guide, Abu
Bakr. Everyone should check him out.
He's not asking. We're doing this for free.
I don't
like charging people for stuff like that, man,
because he does great work. It's called Rawahil
Tours.
Check him out.
That was my brother-in-law. I was just really
excited right now. Are you okay, bro?
I guess there's one more. It's kind of
a sad one, but this is called This
is, of course,
Alija.
Ramblah. But in the and the Lucien dialect,
it's Ramblah.
Like Alhambra is Alhambra.
Like, if you're from Hashem, we say,
But anyways, this area
in 1501 is where they burned
put into to Abu Lekker, our guide, around
800,000
books.
And the fire lasted for 3 days.
So this is where
the
was. It was completely destroyed
completely destroyed. It minerals everything.
And, unfortunately, also, they made the Muslims repay
to build this cathedral. A
tax.
So you're talking about incredible humiliation.
Actually,
one more thing. This is a madrasah right
across from where the old masjid was.
You can still see that the mihrab is
there,
and this was the school.
Look at these Islamic schools in the ancient
Muslim world and how colonialism made us think
that madrasas are backwards and how really madrasas
have been made anemic
because of the economic system that's changed the
Muslim world, but that's another conversation.
But that's why it's important to support
even work like my own at Swiss
so that we can develop and grow in
a way which is,
like, powerful, impactful, and leaves
a legacy.
