Two billion Muslims do nothing Shame. Retired General Asim munier is only man in 2 billions with atomic bomb

Short and excellent explanation of the rise of Arab nationalism.
Everything today, even in South Asia, is the result of imperialism and nationalism (actually pseudo-nationalism), not Islam.

I disagree with the narrator only in that I think the first Arab nationalist was Sharif Hussein of Makkah himself, not his son. He wanted to be Khalifa of Arabs.
 
Islam can be a moral guide to politics (ethics) based on belief and submission to God, represented by a righteous Khalifa. The notion that religion can be incorporated into nationalism politicizes and destroys the purpose of religion. Allah created humanity with many nationalities, languages, ethnicities, cultures, races, and tribes to know one another.

Atheists, extremists, racists and nationalists think religion is culture which can be used as a political tool and weapon against humanity. Then you have people saying to separate religion from politics which also shows misunderstanding of the purpose of religion (moral guide).
 
Saudi: Religion and politics should be separate.

That means nothing is really wrong or evil as long as it happens to others. It allowed the genocide of Arabs/Muslims. The ongoing Gaza genocide became a "political event", and "who cancels a music concert for a political event". That is what happens when you separate religion from politics.
 
Khalifa Umar to Amr: "O Amr, when did you enslave the people when their mothers bore them free?".

Every human is born in freedom which should never be taken away. Without upholding freedom and morality, bloodbaths would be a common occurrence in politics, like tribal warfare among savages. That is why it is necessary to make constitutional principles on righteousness to guarantee basic rights, freedom, and dignity.

Else, live as slave of the idol ruler who chooses to kill, jail, or torture his subjects based on his pleasure, like in the ancient Semitic civilizations. I would say that is better than modern nation states, especially nationalism, fascism, and communism, where you are slave to an ideology. On top of that you may also be slave to a tyrannical idol ruler as well as a political party.
 
Timestamped.

Muslim soldiers from India fighting the Ottomans would be overwhelmingly Pakistani (mostly Punjabi). Greater Saudi Arabia and Pakistan are creations of imperialism and nationalism (not Islam). Terrorist and extremist groups using Islam are products of the same.
 
What does this have to do with Islam? But they are called Islamist. Politicizing religion is product of imperialism and nationalism.
 
In 1908, the rise of Turkish nationalism under Young Turk Nationalists resulted in the rise of Arab nationalism. Young Turks were now the real power and the Ottoman Khalifa was only a figurehead. The mistake Turkish nationalists made was to suppress Arab nationalism. This ripped the Ottoman empire apart, with British and French imperialists taking advantage.

Arabs showed astonishing stupidity, lack of pride, ignorance of Quran and history, by giving power and authority to those who coveted the Semitic and Near East civilizations since the days of ancient Roman empire. They saw it as their own Holy Land since the Holy Roman empire and had fought centuries of genocidal wars to keep it.
