The situation after the birth of Islam.

 These days, it is feared that terrorism will become a representative image of Islam.

IS is a variant virus derived from Islamic faction conflict.

Let's talk about them in detail later.


Before modern times, the Islamic world boasted an overwhelmingly superior culture than the Christian world centered on Western Europe. This dominance of Islamic culture lasted for about a thousand years from the time Greece and Rome lost their civilization superiority to the time when the modern civilization of the West emerged. Since Islam appeared in world history in the 7th century, it has grown rapidly to build a vast Islamic empire covering not only the Middle East and Africa but also the Iberian Peninsula in the early 8th century (711). Both Greek and Roman culture and Alexandria's accumulated wisdom were absorbed into Islam. 

When it comes to science, we often think of people like Galileo and Newton in the modern West first, but in fact, modern science in Europe began with the influx of Islamic culture. During that period, it was the Arabic numeral that quickly spread to Western Europe along with Islamic books and helped modernization. Roman numerals were widely used until Islamic Arabic numerals spread to Europe. However, Roman numerals have decisive flaws. It is the fact that there is no zero. In that sense, it is no exaggeration to say that the development of modern science in Europe was built on Islamic civilization and Arabic numerals. Often, the three major inventions of the Renaissance are plate printing, compass, and gunpowder, which are originally Chinese inventions. Since it has been passed down to Europe through the Islamic world, it is correct to say that it is an improvement that is not a European invention. The same is true of printing boards. Long before Johann Kutenberg invented it, plate printing was prevalent and common in the East, especially in Korea. Looking at world history in this way, it can be clearly seen that advanced cultures and civilizations started from the East, not Europe, and spread to Europe through Islam.


Currently, the number of Muslims is more than 1.3 billion.

Christianity, which is 1.7 billion, is the second largest number. Looking at the current distribution of religion on the map, Christianity is mainly distributed in Western Europe and North and North America. If you look at Africa here, like South America, it has been under European control for a long time, but now most of it is Islam. It can be seen that it is leading to the spread of Muslims due to a kind of resistance from the Western powers.


Arabian Night, featuring Sinbat, is the story of an Islamic merchant. It is said that Islamic merchants in the 8th century traded around Asia, Africa, and Europe. At this time, it is said that the bases built by Islamic merchants around the world for trade became the origin of Asian Islam. After the 13th century, Southeast Asia is said to have developed into an Islamic country as it is now, with the number of people converting to Muslims rapidly increasing, mainly merchants. This number alone has more than 500 million people.


Jerusalem is not just a territory, but a sacred place for Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. It is a place where three monotheistic brothers compete in person. And this brotherhood fight is igniting a bigger fight that drives the world into chaos.


The United States is a religious country more than we think.

When the U.S. president takes office, it is customary to place your hand on the Bible and take an oath. Then, what if a non-Christian takes office? It is a very interesting problem, but it is said that there is no such precedent yet. Why does the political leader of the state put his hand on the Bible? It exactly contradicts the freedom of religion guaranteed by the laws set by the country. However, Americans have no doubt about this. In that sense, it is said that the United States is a firmly different Protestant country. Looking at world history from the perspective of religion, it can be seen that religious confrontation leads to war, which becomes an obstacle and leads to a vicious cycle in which disputes cannot be resolved. 

How world history will proceed in the future cannot be thought of separately from religious issues.
