nah bro .. the best rule and glory was the Ummayads.... from spain/southend franc to india.. ohhh beat that... at this peak, Khalif Al Waleed was the supreme leader of half the world. If he didnt stop the armies in the west, they would have took france, crossed the english channel and occupied Britain. Furthermore, when the ummayads did collapse, the entire splendour of the empire was brought back to life in Al Andalus... a feat unsurpassed by any previous islamic power.
UMMMMMMMMMAYADS
:salam2:
the Best rule and glory was that of the Prophet Muhammad and that of the Khulafa ar-Rashidoon after him, Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthman and Ali, Radhiyallahu anhum.
I did not say that the Ottoman were better than Umayyads, nor should there be comarisons etc, such as thing is pointless.
Khalid ibn Walid (radhiyallahu anhu) was a Sahabi, of course he was of the best people and reknowned as the best Military leader too.
This topic is about the Ottomans, if you have read history, then you will know their navy was in control of the mediteranean and for 100s of years was the strongest. It was decisive in restricting and weakening the movements of the crusaders. They too controlled lands from Morocco through to india, Arabia and that of Europe.
Allah bless those who put their lives for Islam, whoever they were. Amin. Lets not get into who is better etc, Muslims were at times Strong and at times weak..
The main point is for us to understand why we were weak, this is solely due to the Muslims being away from Islam.
