The Story of Al-Andalus - Part Two: From Cordoba to the Inquisition
The Untold Story of Nearly 800 Years of Muslim Rule in Spain
This course is especially designed for teens and adults. The whole family will enjoy it and benefit from it.
Part Two covers the period from the coming of the Murabitun from North Africa, through the eventual disappearance of Islam from the Iberian Peninsula by way of genocide. The curriculum focuses on the legacy of the great figures of Al-Andalus, and their deep connection to Islam in everything they did, on every level.
Course schedule: Every Wednesday starting September 21st, 2022 until October 19th, 2022 (1pm ET; 6pm British) – All sessions will be recorded if you cannot attend live.
Upon registration, you will have access to a private WhatsApp group with your teacher, Ustadh Abu Ayyub Marulanda.
This course includes:
The arrival of the Murabitun and their victories
The age of the Muwahhidun and the loss of Córdoba and Seville
The “golden twilight” era and the progressive loss of territories
The Marinid Sultanate and the struggle for Gibraltar
The Nasrids of Granada and the age of the Alhambra
The fall of Granada and its significance
Persecution and genocide of Muslims under the Inquisition and its consequences
And more.
This course will help you understand the story of a unique Muslim land, how its story fits into the history of the Ummah, and how its legacy continues to influence us today. The reality is that few history courses in our education system in the West will teach the history of Muslim-majority lands from a Muslim perspective. This course aims to provide a more balanced, accurate, and holistic understanding, guided by our own traditional understanding of the reality of human history in this world.
Our intention is for this course to help youth, and adults, to better understand where we come from. In turn, this will help us begin to imagine where we might go as a civilization in the future, insha'Allah. This is all part of the larger goal of helping us reconnect with the immense riches and beneficial aspects of our Muslim legacy.
This will be a live course, held via Zoom, with 5 sessions total over 5 weeks. Our instructor will be Ustadh Abu Ayyub Marulanda, who is originally from the USA, and has been living in Istanbul for a number of years. We're keeping the class small, to allow for participation and questions.
