What happens when an Orthodox Rabbi gives a crash course in Islamic history? You get a raw, heartfelt, and at times shocking insight into how Muslims upheld justice, protected Jews, and honoured the covenant of co-existence.
In this video, Rabbi Haim Sofer recalls:
- How Jews flourished under the Caliphate
- Why Islamic Sharī’ah offered Jews protection for centuries
- And how modern Zionism has betrayed that legacy.
This is not the narrative you’re used to hearing!
