Can i have one please?

Ibn Battouta hated sailing and majority of his trips did not involve sailing at all. He avoided it religiously.

@@und3rcut535 he did use Astrolabe and he spoke about it

I didn't know anything about astrolabes before this video and I'm blown away. This was a great achievement for your ancestors. I wish you all the best from the USA.

Can you please tell me where to get one

Make sure you know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour! He is coming soon! Please don't be left behind! Accept and believe in Jesus Christ! John 3:16, Revelation 20:15

Yes. You can get a planispheric or a universal astrolabe, both of which have updated star maps. They are still in use today in astronomy classes as a learning tool or for the avid hikers/explorers going places their handy GPS may not work. Side note: they were used for navigation until the 17th century when they were replaced with the sextant.

The Greeks _definitely_ had it before the Arabs. But the most refinements came from the Islamic World.

I'd be impressed if he understood it, he doesn't look like he could.

Date from a stick in the ground, after over a year of observations.

Same here bro but I saw it on Vikings Valhalla two days ago 🤣

@@mariebarker4499 prove anything you claim is true. And no, the bible isn’t evidence, it’s the CLAIM.

U use the astrolabe, obviously 😂

They're complicated.

They teach us only the western civilization

It's and other thousands things in such a small device.

they say the name (Astrolabe) is of Greek origin. Astro and the Muslims have evolved this object. but as you said it's a bit weird because the greek period and Islam have a lot of time difference between them how the muslims managed to know the greek studies so there was no internet or translation between the two Arabic and Greek language

It was created by muslim.. But muslim always credited to the people inspired them such as such

@@asmrnaturecat984 It was not. There are mentions of astrolabes in Greek culture hundreds of years before Mohammed. Hypatia of Alexandria is specifically mentioned as using them. She died hundreds of years before Islam. But Islam DID make the most perfected versions. And they put them to best use. Not only finding the direction of Mecca and determining prayer times but navigating the Mediterranean. Barbarossa wasn't originally a Disney pirate. He was the greatest Islamic pirate of his age and later an admiral of the Ottoman Empire's Navy. The Turkish Navy still salutes his tomb as they sail by _to this day._ Without the astrolabe the Moslems couldn't have navigated the Mediterranean. And while Medieval Christians had them, it wasn't until well after the Barbarossa died they realized their full potential as a navigational aid. There was not significant improvement in naval navigation until the invention of the mechanical clock to determine longitude in the 18th century.

@@asmrnaturecat984 No it wasnt lol. It was widely used by Muslims, and very likely had some features added to it by Muslims, but it was most certainly NOT invented by 'Muslims'.

Lol 😆

What do u do when the battery dies? Imagine you are riding a camel in the desert now what?

@@MrJayPuff As long as we’re imagining, I’ll just imagine I have a power bank. 😝 Seriously though, if I’m near civilization and have somewhere to be, I’ll just proceed to my destination asap. If I’m in the middle of nowhere I’ll just try to get to civilization asap, not sure knowing the time is useful there. Oh, also, this was a joke.

Islam was the unifying factor behind most of Arabia. Their flourishing was during the "Islamic Golden Age". The societies themselves were inherently Islamic in a very dedicated way, and their culture spanned many countries/regions, yet they shared much of this in common. So it makes more sense to refer to their culture & achievements by the culture/religion, at times.

neither do I, I will need to study it more.

Because every invention by muslim at that time is due to religion During that time, islam is very intertwined with their daily life, the needs to pray 5 times a day at specific time towards specific direction forced them to create such things, that can be use in the middle of the sea And the trend is the same with muslim in spain, egypt, iraq and central asia. Instead of calling them arab invention which mostly not, better called them islamic invention You don't see modern muslim invent anything and call it as muslim invention anymore as it is due to market and demand Christian on the other hand were seperated and restricted only to church...

Astrolabe was invented by Apollonius of Perga between 220 and 150 BC the word itself is greek

It was invented by Greek. But it's developed vy Islamic scientists. Because Islam needed to pray five times a day in a very accurate time. That's why they needed to develop such a device

​@@adchowdhury7700 Islam (the religion) didn't come along until 700 years later.They didn't develop it, they simply used it.

@@jojogo22 lol Why are you speak out of ignorance?!! Muslims developed it into this form and with that accuracy. The Greek astrolabe is old and Its shape is different and difficult to use . Go see it.and find out

@@adchowdhury7700 Don't forget celestial navigation. The astrolabe was also used to find the direction of Makkah/Mecca depending on where you are on the globe.

LOL what a bigot you are! You assume that billions of arabs through history had no scientists? Is that what you are convinced or entertain with your racist bigotry? Arabs had a 1400 civilization and muslims in USA are the most educated minority. I guess you know some of them, if you don't live in a cave. Arabs and muslims invented many fields of philosophy, and science including optics, sociology, trignometry, algorithms, algebra and numerals including zero. Not only fields of science but magnitude of words in your english today. Words like sugar, alkali, cotton, admiral, tariff, sheriff, might and even the term "meaning" are an extensive list of arabic words taken from muslim world and latinized in the middle ages. All in all, you can't think modern without using some arabic concepts and cannotations. You are just ungrateful for that fact. Even western civilization is a continuation and bastardized islamic civilization and the wisdom of muslims of Iberia and andulus. The west would have been dark without it. No neathanderal genes or fantacies of eurocentric none-sence that could help.

And the al chemist came from china,ibn sina came from Germany, al gebra came from Australia

You really hate Arabs, don't you. Hate is not healthy. Hate results in bad hormones, which in turn can lead to your early death. On the other hand, given your hate, that may not be a bad idea.
