Fall of Granada: How Muslims Lost Spain After 800 Years

Описание: On January 2, 1492, the keys of Granada were handed over, and with them ended nearly 800 years of Muslim rule in Spain.

But what followed was far darker than a political defeat.

Entire communities vanished. Mosques became churches. Libraries burned. A people were forced to abandon their faith, their language and even their names.

In this documentary, we trace the full journey of Al-Andalus — from Tariq bin Ziyad’s landing in 711, to the breathtaking Golden Age of Cordoba, from the rise of Abdur Rahman I (The Falcon of Quraish), to the moral collapse of the Party Kings (Muluk al-Tawaif), and finally, the siege and fall of Granada.

We also explore the great mystery: Why did Islam disappear completely from Spain while it survived in India despite the loss of Muslim rule?

We also uncover one of history’s most chilling chapters: the Moriscos, forced conversions, the Spanish Inquisition and what may be considered one of the earliest examples of systematic religious cleansing in Europe.

Watch till the end. This is not just history — it is a lesson.
