Rise of the Arabs

How did low IQ sandnigger Arabs go from being buckbroken and enslaved by the Byzantine and Sasanian Empire to completely taking over both regions and beyond?
The Arabs went from being pawns of the Byzantines and Sasanians to conquering both within a couple of decades

I don't know but I'm going to assume jews.

Oh boy here come 300 deranged responses. Whites claiming we wuz Arabs etc. I just want to preemptively say fuck Hindus and fuck Jews. The world is waking up to the crimes of the Jew!!!

Luck i guess, its weird the middle east could produce such conquerors when they were raped by turkics, romans, mongols, indo europeans, sea peoples and colonialists in a row. But this was an expression of the peak of natufian genetics manifesting.

jews

The crimes of the Jew will be exposed. Fuck Hindus fuck Jews!!!

There is a theory that early Islam was a Judaic sect based on a Jewish doomsday scroll that was hidden away a long time until some other jew found it and came up with the idea to create Islam to destroy the Byzantines with the help of Arabs. The timeline is something like this:

Arab tribes interact with Jewish and Christian communities in Arabia

Arabs, seen as "Hagarenes" (descendants of Hagar/Ishmael), adopt a messianic Judeo-Christian identity

No unified "Islam" yet but Arabs influenced by monotheism but still fragmented

610–632: Muhammad’s preaching, Hagarism claims it’s initially a Judeo-Christian movement, not a distinct religion

Arabs ("Hagarenes") ally with Jews to "liberate" the Holy Land from Byzantines

634–638: Arab conquests of Byzantine Syria and Sasanian Mesopotamia

These victories are framed as a Hagarene-Jewish alliance against Christians, not yet a fully "Islamic" movement

638: Arabs take Jerusalem

Hagarism suggests this fulfills a messianic goal, with the Dome of the Rock (built later, 691) as a symbol of Hagarene triumph

Islam as we know it forms under the Umayyads (661–750), breaking from its Judeo-Christian roots

Arabs shift from "Hagarenes" to a distinct Muslim identity, codifying the Qur’an and Islamic traditions

Hagarism argues this is when Islam becomes a separate religion, post-conquest

This is from a book called Hagarism by Crone and Cook, pretty good read.

Backstabbing germanics as per usual

They got access to Roman weaponry left in its former Med colonies.

if you call Muhammad black you get your head chopped off

There is 30 + mentions of his white skin and red hair

Fuck Hindus

Fuck Jews

The world is waking up to your crimes!!!!

they happened to crawl out of their hiding place when both empires were depleted

Did Muhammad know he was preaching jewish propaganda? Was he a jew?

Keek this nigga is obsessed

How did low IQ sandnigger Arabs go from being buckbroken and enslaved by the Byzantine and Sasanian Empire to completely taking over both regions and beyond?

First of all, Byzantine is a made up term from the early 1800s. I don't approve of it's use in general, much less referring to the Eastern Roman Empire over 300 years before the Christian Schism.
As for your question, the Persians and Romans had been in a devastating back and forth war for over twenty years. Timing was really, really inconvenient for an upstart movement to appear and sweep the region.

The world is waking up to your crimes jewboy.

I know there were armed to their teeth thanks to the byzantines but like how many people could be living in that godforsaken desert to be able to bring down one of the world's two largest empires it doesnt make sense. I'm thinking maybe it was mostly mesopotamian semites and not bedouins but when I check out wiki the emirs or whatever they're called claim descent from bedouin tribes

The world is waking up to your crimes hindu .

Islam, a big unifying belief system with strong martial drive can have a huge impact on fractured peoples. It's like having an exceptional leader that doesnt die.

Dear Jews and Poos: The world is waking up to your crimes!

there's nothing roman about the christcuck byzantines so why call it roman

The world is waking up to your crimes Moshe and Rakesh!

oil

thinking oil in 7th AD is as valuable as today

what the fuck do they even do with oil if there is a way to harvest it? Lube?

The world won’t stop waking up to your crimes!!

Because I'm not going to use a made up term from some autistic German historian that was never used by anyone of the fucking period. If you deny their legitimacy as Rome (which is retarded) then you should be referring to them as the Greek Empire as the HRE called them.

If I recall correctly Mohammed knew of the Bible and it's teachings since Moses and Jesus are regarded as one of the pre-Mohammedan Prophets . My theory is (I'm an ex muslim) since Mohammed came from a wealthy merchant family and that some of his family members and one of his wives were jews that he himself had jewish blood aswell.
Monotheism is a jewish concept aswell.
I believe his story is similar to Jesus, except he wasn't betrayed by his fellow jews, but he betrayed them himself when the time was right and took power into his own hands. Although I still think its far fetched, since in the Quran it's mentioned one day even trees will talk and give away where the jews are hiding.

Kingdom of God. No other explanations needed.

average sized brown arab pecker was too goated for persian and byzantine troons

Same story as the mongol empire. Warrior race that has been killing each other, decided to unite and fuck others up for a change, only difference is they did it under the banner of religion.

Most of the military engagements were won because the Arab general would challenge the other general in open field and the Arab ones would win almost everytime against the stinky Iranian ones because their generals got there through merit while Persians got there through nepotism.

The world is waking up to the crimes of the Jew. It’s accelerating.

islam is a jewish religion

Your king a filthy Jew traitor and the people are going to rise up against him. Masked Arab movement is spreading.

Byzantine was in lot of problems because of wars with Persia and plague. They were at their weakest, and after they lost Egypt they couldn't recover

He literally spent time among Jews and they taught him everything about their religion. It is why Islam leans more towards Judaism than Christianity.

Islam is really just different concentrations of Judaism, Christianity and paganism. The pagan traditions come from mostly the Mecca worship. Going around it 7 times counter clockwise (because Hindus do something f similar but in a clockwise rotation).

Religion is just plagiarized shit, handpicked by its author to spin a narrative more suitable for his tastes

Only jews are obsessed with telling other people how they must live, he was a jew and so was his right hand man who was the real champion of islam

Hagarism by Crone and Cook, pretty good read.

It's only good read if you are into revisionist tomfoolery. You are basically no different than the Christians who don't read their bible and just listen to church preach that somehow a Jewish rabbi died on a cross and he sucks all of humanity's sins by becoming a curse.
Why don't you research from the Muslims themselves instead of reading the books with agenda?

B-be-because they are biased!

And shit you read is not? That isn't an excuse to seek actual sources.

Arabs were savages during that time and were hardy. They were split into several small kingdoms that constantly went to war against each other. They had to survive in inhospitable conditions which also contributed to them being hardy. Then you have the fact that the Byzantine Sassanids drained each others Empires resources fighting each other. The Sassanids and Byzantine were more then capable of keeping them outside of there borders but after decades of war and hundreds of thousands of deaths the armies were reduced to conscripts and inexperienced officers. All there best soldiers died where as the Arabs unified and easily smashed both Empires, the Byzantine barley managing to survive with its tales between its legs thanks to its great navy and Anatolian highlands. There was no country out there to defeat the hardy Arabs they came in swept and wiped everything easily as far as India and France where they were finally barely stopped by Charles Martel. This Aurora of invisibility eventually faded after conquering all these lands the Arabs civilized and eventually became conquered peoples themselves. It's really noting new a warrior society coming out of nowhere since the sea people and wiping everyting, the Mongols are a great example as well.

I've heard that Mohammed was a ginger (not sure how true that is). But if he was, that would mean he was white. He may also have had mental issues (like he got reoccuring seizures from some head injury of something) which he interpreted as having devine revelations and shit like this. Another minor note, the guy who was writing a lot of things down for him was Catholic I believe, so he may have been white as well.

And why this stuff matters is that I have a working theory that pretty much every major civilisation and its rise was due to white people. I didn't just decide that must be the case, I just saw lots of oddities in the historical record and modern evidence. Like you have to look at the fact that the people who ruled ancient Egypt are more similar genetically to someone in Britain than the people who inhabit the region now. Why they were so insistant to "keep it in the family" so to speak where brother and sister would fuck and have children rather than marry outsiders (was that because they were browner and stupider and so whatever damage you did with incest it still was better to do than mixing).

Look at something like ancient China. We have the Tarim mummies which show Eurasian ancestry. Also the "Chinese" discovered something like gun powder but they simply forgot how useful it was? Like it wasn't until, wait for it, Europeans show up that it's clearly shown how dangerous this stuff is and it's immediately taken advantage of (now that there are good trade routes). Also the Chinese themselves have many different words for different types of concubines. To me, it seems like the rise is always: group of white people who like to explore and travel thousands of miles, go to a place and they rule it and bring about a golden age and civilisation gets going. Eventually though, due to mixing with the natives it dilutes the white admixture down, to the point where you get situations like "forgetting" how useful gunpowder is or meaning of pyramids.

7th century oil cartels

could you anti-palestine kikes at least try?

islam-watch

i prefer jew-watch.

jewwatch.png - 1669x881, 260.04K

Yes, part of the issue was that the kikes wanted to be let back into Jerusalem.
That’s why there’s a big mosque the kikes want to tear down to rebuild their temple, the Romans fucked up the temple, kicked the kikes out, and it took something like 550 years for them to be brought back in. But, of course, since the nature of Judaism only enfranchises the weak and evil, the fighting had to be done by the newly minted fuzzie wuzzies— thus a mosque on the holy site. Still. To this day.
Apart from the kikery, both sides of the Byzantine and Persian empires had been engaged in massive battles over areas that people actually cared about, so the Arabs were left on their own to be completely irrelevant. When you look at the number of Islamic soldiers in the first years it’s really not that large of a movement. Basically you have Mohammed and people who made money of Mohammed convert a bunch of Christians, which probably wasn’t that difficult since it had been about 500 years of bullshit and sand for them since Jesus said “surely some of you niggas in this generation are gonna be like ‘wat up jc’ when I come back down from the heavens on my father’s golden lambo”.
But, again, specifically with respect of the rise of Islam AFTER Mohammed, basically the dudes in modern Iraq were tired of getting gangbanged by the byzantine Christians and Zoroastrian Persians, so they converted readily. That’s where the real power came from, that conversion event, not from the Arabs.
But, yeah, to say that kikes were involved in every aspect of Islam’s rise and proliferation is an understatement.

They got extremely super lucky by having a God-tier general (Khalid ibn al-Walid) which beat the numerically superior enemies by clever tricks and twists on warfare tactics.

Interesting how it's common knowledge about Genghis Kahn and Alexander the Great but not many people know about the Islamic armies. They seem to think people just chose to convert

(I'm an ex muslim)

No wonder that you are an ex-muslim. Shows how little you even know of your religion. I bet you are not even practicing as well and never read the Qur'an before being ex. Let me guess, are you now a Christcuck or Atheistfag?

(((Someone))) saw an opportunity and started funding and supplying them.

a ditch

Yeah man please tell me more about the Arab Rommel lol
Then again, in a land of 70 IQ retards, the 105 IQ midwit is comparatively a wizard

Said it better than I could.

My guess is Western Historians never liked how they nearly managed to take over the West so they always they tried to keep the tone down a bit. The really did almost destroy all of Western civilization they weren't that far from Paris.But seriously though the Arabs at that time had excellent light cavalry which humiliated nations that use more armour. They were the Mongols of that time.

Look at this samefag lol.
Arabs were, and are, weak. They did nothing besides roll weak men. Sorry you are brown

Very slow process. They were mercenaries and nominal subjects and allies to the Romans and Persians, like you mention. For hundreds of years, split into the Ghassanids and the Lakhmids. Plus the Nabatean kingdom, that was more urban than the bedouins and had already been Romanized. So at the beginning they might have been stupid retards that knew nothing, but by the end of it they had accumulated experience, knowledge, know-how from them, and were in a more equal footing.

Like the Germanics in Europe. Though I'd also question if they were truly retards that knew nothing, being next to the cradles of civilization of Egypt and Babylon since forever, mostly they just lived in an inhospitable shithole and kept their population density very low and urban life very limited. Oh, the ancient Saba' kingdom in the south of Yemen. There was like a proper civilization there going back to classical antiquity, believe it or not. That got superseded by another south Arab civilization, Himyar, and in turn conquered by Ethiopia, under the kingdom of Axum. The Quran talks about the Christian Ethiopian king of Himyar sending an army with war elephants to destroy Mecca and failing.

They had contact with the world, were connected to many trade routes, they weren't running around in loincloths in AD 550.

Heraklios was in an incestious marriage and Khosrow 2 got killed by his son who himself got murdered a couple months after. Both Eastern Romans and Persians were huge degenerates and got replaced by the glorious islamic caliphate. The same thing will happen to the shitpires of today's time when we get strong again you niggers.

I've heard that Mohammed was a ginger (not sure how true that is)

Sadly not true. Or highly unlikely, I also got curious at some point and looked it up, and it's like, out of all mentions of Muhammad's appearance in the hadiths or whatever, like, 8 said he had dark hair, and only one claims red. Though the belief that he was a redhead is widespread and that's why you see Bangladeshis and shit, with dyed orange beards.

I mean you are right about that they were able to come in when nations were in turmoil like the Visigoths who were fighting a civil war. They couldn't face the Franks because they were united although there empire was very stretched and Pyrenees. I'm all for Roman history I love it but this is all did happen.

Then you have the fact that the Byzantine Sassanids drained each others Empires resources fighting each other.

This is also very much correct, the Romans and Persians were exhausted over a series of wars over suzerainty of Armenia at that particular point in time.

Meant to quote this one.

How Saudis and gulf states are rich from oil but Nigeria is piss poor?

How did low IQ sandnigger Arabs go from being buckbroken and enslaved by the Byzantine and Sasanian Empire to completely taking over both regions and beyond?

They didn't. The Red Sea peoples were never conquered or enslaved. They got rich off of trading with the Romans, Egyptians, Ethiopians, Persians/Parthians/Sassands/Muscat. Trade was already booming there since the Bronze Age.

The Arabs went from being pawns of the Byzantines

They were never pawns of the Byzantines. They have been a pain in the ass of the Eastern Empire since around the time the empire was divided upon the death of Theodosius. They had the freedom to strike throughout the Levant and raid, being able to retreat quite easily and live a semi-nomadic lifestyle while the Eastern Empire/Byzantines had to rely on standing armies and heavy infantry and cavalry.

The Arabs went from being pawns of the Byzantines and Sasanians to conquering both within a couple of decades

Byzantines and Sassanid empire had been fighting for like 300 years. They had completely worn each other out and depleted each other's military and financial resources.

The special thing about their conflict as well was that they didn't sack cities or destroy the local infrastructure. 99 out of 100 times during any conflicts in that era you'll see that the local populace is decimated, cities are razed, the local economy is destroyed. But Egypt, the Levant and Fertile Crescent were prime real estate, the most fertile lands in the wider region by a huge margin. It was the trade nexus between the East and West and specially the city of Antioch was waaaaay too valuable as an economic asset to be destroyed. Jerusalem was never touched due to its spiritual value, even to the Sassanids.

When Byz and Sass had worn each other out, Arabs were able to get a foothold in the region and use the existing infrastructure to keep up their war effort. It wasn't so much a conquest of huge empires, but a change in administration.

when we get strong again you niggers.

Try to stop relying on American protection first, mr goat herder.

nah
the first millennium only happened to have around 300 years
rise of arabs happened around the same time as come hit earth and destroyed civilization

This too, warlike tribals btfo-ing settled peoples while being outnumbered is a recurring thing in history.

Indeed it's all fun and games until you realize how good it is to civilize.

Arabs were still very low in number even after all of arabia was unified, right after the conquest of iraq and levant, arabians only made up 1 something % of the army. These two regions were also easy to infiltrate since it was mostly governed by arabs already so there were connections and acquaintance. Arabs only took leadership while the fighting was mostly done by people who were sassanid and byzantine citizens themselves. Similar scenario happened before called the palmyrene revolt, you can think of this one as the second shot.

Byzantine Romans and Sasanids were superpowers back in the day. You are a fucking retarded mutt.

Satan studied and exploited the weaknesses of neighboring empires and his devotees wolololed their way into sandniggerdom

Mouhamed literally kiled 400 jews in one day just to prove that jews are backstabbing traitors

I doubt that. This was conquest not liberation.

Why do you think the Muslims could take over e.g. Egypt so easily? The native christians welcomed them because they hated Roman Catholic oppression even more than they feared Muslim oppression.

It was really a bit of both. The two empires didn’t have a sweet relationship with these two provinces specifically.

That was not how it went the Roman Egyptians actually fielded an army to stop them but it was composed of conscripts.

arabs werent as subhuman before the islamic expansion (slave trade, negrification and inbreding)

They were though that's how they managed to get out of there nest and easily conquer the civilized world for a few centuries.

Here's a clue. Many Roman ruins seen today in North Africa are located inside deserts. Surrounded by arid land devoid of vegetation and animals.
Why would the Romans build large structures in the middle of a fucking desert?
Answer: They didn;t,
Those lands were once fertile croplands, irrigated and teeming with life.
It was only later that the Arabs over populated and overgrazed those areas, causing the ecosystem to collapse. They turned it into a desert. The Romans ruins remained.
Those areas of Arabia were similarity fertile, but again overpopulation and overgrazing created a situation where the Arabic tribes were faced with the situation of either staying put, fighting each other and starving to death, or moving out and conqueoring new lands. The genius of Mohammad was in uniting those tribes in a common purpose under the guise of religion and They were effectively turned into human locusts
As for the Byzantines ( or Eastern Empire ) they were always underpopulated relative to the Arabs, mainly becasue of their sustainable agricultural practices. They didn't breed like rats. So the Arabs would send army after army, it didn't matter if one army got wiped out, they would just send another one. Then another. In fact losing shitloads of men was favorable to them since so long as it did some damage to their enemies they could be easily replaced by the next generation of soldiers who now had more women to fuck and more to eat. For the Byzantines however the loss of an army was a catastrophic event from which they would have difficulty recovering. That is in effect what happened, culminating in the fall of Constantinople.

Paying a jew names George W Bush lots of oil money from the house of Saud to stage a false flag attack against Iraq to get the American military involved to remove them from power and establish a petro dollar system the secures the jewish money printing for energy needs establishing control over the monetary system through oil and reserve currency.

It's because of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh). He was a white nigger merchant Master Race. (It is documented)

Not in egypt it wasn’t even conquered before persia. But for iraq and the levant there was a sense of revolt in it, most of the people obviously didn’t know what they were signing up for but arabs were more familiar to the locals than their current rulers so they signed up anyway

Alabaster-skinned, pink-nippled/pink-holed niggers are the rarest race on Earth and they are the Superior Race

I doubt that, the fall of those provinces was because of a lack of experienced soldiers and officers. The Arabs were easily able to roll through the heavily armoured enemies by using surprise maneuvers with the use of light cavalry which at the time said empires were abandoning for heavier cavalry. The Sassanids for instance were so weak they actually had to chain there soldiers together so they wouldn't rout.

semitic araboids

Shitskin, you are the jews
Even niggers were wise to ways of dying hair, and even semitic mongrels knew of ways to whiten skin; even so what they considered white would be as filth to us.
It's not smart engaging in anachronism on top of using our human perspective to understand lowly animals.

Real answer - Romans and Persians weak after fighting each other for hundreds of years

I mean that’s just the battle you’re talking about I’m telling you how they were even able to gather enough troops to begin with. Arabs didn’t just show up and declare war that’s not how it happened

The Arabs were skirmishing with both Empires initially. Which was what eventually evolved to them invading.

on the border of declining city-based urbanite empires always is an outside primitive-ish, violent group with a ton of willpower. once the former turns S0ý enough the latter high on test turns on the steamroller, its just nature

Makes you wonder who will be the new group of barbaric subhuman savages that will come and wipe out the civilized world next.

Arabs are the most powerful race in the world. The whole Arab world combined has 1/7th the GDP of Germany and 1/5th the literary output in number of books that Spain translates each year, yet Islam completely dominates the Western consciousness, all efforts in the West are aimed at placating and making their Muslim populations happy.

Despite making up less than 10% of the population, Muslims are already the masters of most of Europe. All countries refuse to oppose them and indulge their every whim. Majority of them do not work, yet the rest of the population labors to support them. All governments can only think of is placating them and carrying out their agenda.

The reality is, Europe is just becoming a satellite continent for Africa and the Middle East. There is no visible assimilation or even an attempt at it. Europeans are nothing but the dogs of Muslims. They have established themselves as the ruling class in Europe, they live there, but are not subject to European laws or values, while native Europeans exist to serve them and must placate their every whim.

Westerners and their Zionist overlords have been powerless to stop them, Muslims are now the new masters of Europe and America. The past months have demonstrated above all the political power of Muslims in Western countries. Their demonstrations in support of Palestine and Hamas' actions enjoys the support of the majority of the population. Western governments and Jewish-dominated institutions like the media and finance are completely powerless to stop them

The reality is, Europe is just becoming a satellite continent for Africa and the Middle East. There is no visible assimilation or even an attempt at it. Europeans are nothing but the dogs of Muslims. They have established themselves as the ruling class in Europe, they live there, but are not subject to European laws or values, while native Europeans exist to serve them and must placate their every whim.

Sad but true

everybody is civilized to some point today so its not as clear as complete destruction and takeover. the key is to make good use of the stuff that the high civ came up with - keep that and discard all their weak shit habits and that keep the cycle turning.
my money is on muslims again. as long as they keep their pimp hand strong (high birthrates) and will retain enough technical education on the male side of things to manufacture cheap explosive drones ukraine war style long enough for our populations and ponzi economics to rot enough they got it in the bag

maybe if the colonising arabs didn't democratically vote in a terrorist organisation bent on the destruction of a more powerful nation things would've been different.

Simple. It was the Mongols, Plagues, and the crusades. That weaken them down to the point they were able to get lucky and take over. By the time they would been taken over by European powers, they found the new world and rather then take back the holy land they went to the Americas leaving Turks alone. (They didn't really care about the holy land.)

coming from a nazi larp

kys kraut nigger ywnba empire, roman or holy, only capable of killing white people in chimp outs

pussy

I think it's more that the conquest hasn't stopped but nobody wants to anger these people

bet you're not even white kek

aight, bet. lemme break down dat crazy arab glow-up fo yall. went from nobodies to runnin da whole damn map faster than u can say "subhanallah." how dey flip da script on dem big-deal byzantines n sassanians? listen up.

1. byzantines & sassanians wuz tired tired

yo, dem two big dawgs? by da 600s? done. dey been beefin fo decades, straight bankruptin demselves tryna flex.

byzantines: heraclius jus finished draggin his empire thru da mud fightin da sassanians (dat 602-628 war? brutal). left em broke, soldiers dead, n politickin got em all divided up inside. weak sauce.
sassanians: dey caught dem ls hard in dat same war. ain neva really bounced back. army trash, government messy, n folks out on da edges (like near arabia) wuz rebellin. whole operashun wuz shook.

2. islam dropped & changed da whole game

den bam! prophet muhammad (pbuh) comes thru. arabs wuz fragmented af, tribes beefin 24/7. islam? dat unified da whole vibe. gave em purpose.

dat holy fire: dem early muslims? straight hyped off da deen. spreadin da word, buildin dat righteous society? dat wuz dey drive. pure zeal.
new rules, new crew: islam brought dat equality. didnt matter who your pappy wuz, if u muslim? u senpai. dat ummah? stronger than any ol tribe. locked em tight.

3. arabs brought dat smoke (military genius)

don get it twisted, arabs knew how to scrap. been tanglin with da neighbors. plus, dem light horsemen? mobile as hell. but da real sauce?

leadership dat dind play: soon as da prophet (pbuh) passed? dem caliphs, abu bakr, umar, uthman? locked it down. took dem tribesmen n made em a proper army. disciplined. organized.
battlefield cheats: took wut dey saw from da empires n upgraded it. light cavalry runnin circles round slow armies. battles like yarmouk (byzantines got cooked) n qadisiyyah (sassanians got folded) showed dey wuznt playin.

4. empires wuz fallin apart anyways

dem big empires? couldn even get dey own house straight.

byzantines: heraclius won his war... but left his empire on e. too tired to deal with da new arab threat. plus, slavs n others startin mess? man, dey wuz distracted.
sassanians: already crashin. king yazdegerd iii? couldn get right. no real control. folks fightin each otha. arabs saw dat weakness n ate.

5. folks wuz sick of dey old landlords

ain jus about da army. people livin under byzantines & sassanians wuz fed up.

taxes wuz wildin: dem empires bleedin folks dry. arabs rolled up like, "pay dis lower tax (jizya) n u good, keep ya faith." way better deal. folks wuz like, "bet."
respect where its due: especially fo da "people of da book" (christians, jews)? arabs let em be. sassanians n byzantines? always pushin dey own state faith. arabs comin with dat tolerance? huge win.

6. caliphs wuz runnin things

after da prophet (pbuh)? rashidun caliphs took dat momentum n ran with it.

yarmouk (636): cooked da byzantines. took syria, palestine, egypt. gone.
qadisiyyah (636): folded da sassanians. took iraq, den whole persia. done.
leadership on point: abu bakr, umar, uthman, ali? mixed dat deep faith with smart rulin. knew how to fight, how to talk, how to build. kept da whole operashun movin smooth.

7. dey knew how to run da new spot

conquerin is one thing. holdin it? dass skill. arabs wuz smarter than da old bosses.

keep order: set up arab soldier camps near cities. let locals handle dey own day-to-day mostly. kept da peace n kept control.
let folks breathe: remember dat tolerance? christians, jews, zoroastrians? weren gettin pressed like before. as long as dey paid up n chilled? cool. made folks way less likely to rebel.

so, whuss da verdict?
arabs went from zero to hero cuz:

1.islam locked em together tight.

2.byzantines & sassanians wuz already on dey last leg, broke n bickerin.

3.arabs came with dat fresh military strategy n top-tier leadership.

4.dey knew how to work da politics n da people in da lands dey took, offered a better deal n respect.

dis ain jus some "lucky underdog" story. nah. dis wuz a perfect storm: faith firin em up, weak targets, cleva tactics, n knowin how to keep wut dey took. one of da baddest power moves in history, point blank.

Turns out raping and pillaging is a strong motivating force, especially if you believe that when you die you get to have sex "unlike sex here" which goes on longer, with white women with blue eyes and blonde hair for all eternity. Low IQ peoples eat that shit up.

Because the retarded Romans and Persian exhausted themselves in pointless mutual wars.
There was also some plagues before and they had a massive operational failure when they tried to team up and gangbang invading Arab armies.

daaaayuuuuuuum

Prophet muhammad was a ginger with fair complexion

LOL. You're funny. You got some things right, but you are only seeing what you WANT to see. Though you will find out the truth when it shows itself.

They had perfect conditions for a global chimp-out:

1.Population boom en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Late_Antique_Little_Ice_Age
2.Levant and Egypt were ravaged by iranians.
3.Byzantine and sassanid empires were exhausted by 30 years of war
4.Iranian emperor dissolved Lakhmid dynasty.
5.Arabs had arabian horses.
6.Arabs weren't an agricultural society, most men could participate in wars.
7.Iranian empire had a big succession crisis.
