Yes, but who knows? I have a family tree that goes back to 1500, only because my town has kept the archives and some scholars studied them and built all the family trees. I doubt people in Palestine have such documents that trace back their ancestry that far. Moreover, it's demonstrated scientifically that when you go back enough, we all have a common ancestor. For example every European (and everyone else of European descent) shares a common ancestor with every other European. This ancestor lived in the last 1000 years. That means that the great-great-[...]-great-grandfater of all Europeans was born around the year 1000 AD. If you go back further, every single ancient European is an ancestor of every single European living today. This can definitely be applied to other regions of the world. Considering that Jews moved from Palestine to Europe and that Arabs conquered southern parts of Europe before 1000 AD, it's very much probable that every European has Jewish and Arab descent as well, and viceversa.

Or they understand the mea ing of Islam and Muslim in a theological sense and not the modern way you understand it. So you see it as ignorance on their part where they may fully understand the question and answer according to Islamic understanding. The word Muslim in Arabic means one who submits to the will of God. The Quran calls Abraham a Muslim even though he was long before Muhammad's time precisely because he submitted to the will of God ie a Muslim in Arabic. Theologically many Muslims believe early Jews and Christians were Muslim as well because they followed the teachings of prophets sent by God and thus submitted to the will of God. So if their ancestors were Jews or Christians they may think of them as theologically Muslim.

I think this answer would be the same all over the arabic world.

​ @dhdowlad That would be a taqiya to establish credibility of Islam by talking about prophets of the Jews as if Islam have been the religion since Adam. While the word muslim refers to people who submit to God, it has the most connection to Islam. That is being muslim in Islam means to ALSO believe in Muhammad as the messenger of Allah. Judaism and almost all religions believe and submit themselves to God, but certainly they don't believe in Muhammad as their prophet, therefore nahh.. they WERE NEVER muslim and certainly could not believe in Islam as none of the Jewish prophets ever knew Muhammad.

Because land isn't decided by who used to live there first, or religious origin. Nobody would accept that for their own country or people. Would you accept a UN resolution to give land in your country (wherever it was decided) back to a group of people who used to live there before it was conquered by its current occupants? The same argument can be made for giving the native Americans 53% of America back, and force all Americans living in the territory given to them to move, or else be subject to the jurisdiction of the native American government. Or giving Australia back to the aborigine, or kicking all white people out of South Africa. Someone else used to live everywhere on this planet. It's never been an argument for anyone else. Only Jews. What happened to Jews during WWII was absolutely despicable... but it didn't give the UN the right to create an injustice and remove people from their land... because it was theirs. Who owned or occupied it centuries ago is the most irrelevant non-argument.

Islam really is a dark veil that clouds people's minds

Most of you people don't understand what Islam is so you can't understand where they're coming from. To Muslims, being a "Muslim" is surrendering to God. It's not just a name to a religion that came with the Prophet Muhammed. Abraham, Moses, Issa (Jesus), and other prophets were all "submitting to the will of God". Therefore, they are "Muslims". They surrendered to God. Furthermore, in Islam, there is such thing as a "believer" or a "Mo'min". These are the people who believe in God's books, prophets, heaven, hell, angels, etc. - The people who believe in one God. We pray for the believers almost everyday. The "believers" can be anyone. It's not about the religion they subscribe to, but about their belief and relationship with God. Finally, in Islam, there is emphasis on preserving ancestry. As in, children always keep their father's surname. Many people have family trees that trace back to the Prophet Muhammed. Yes, many families were of Jewish or Christian origins. But to them, it doesn't matter -- at the time, Jews were "the Muslims" of the time, and after that, Christians became "the Muslims" of their time. Jews stopped being "Muslims" when they didn't believe in Issa (Jesus) as they refused the will of God, and Christians stoppped being "Muslims" when they made Jesus the son of God, and thereby they refused to surrender to the will of God.

Meanwhile the stupid translator asks people what translates to: "were any of your grandparents or family Jews or Christians that converted to Islam?" that's why Most people answer: "no my grandparent and their grandparents for at least a 100 years were Muslim, that's what we know" if you rewatch the video with this in mind, you'll notice that their answers actually make sense. The way they understand the question is "have your family been Christians/jews and then converted to Islam?" There was even a guy who said they were polytheist before becoming muslims and the stupid translator translated it as "No they were not polytheist, they were muslim" like what? the dude literally said they WERE polytheists.

==From an Islamic position, Islam didn't start with Muhammed. Islam started with Adam. ==The followers of Abraham were Muslims, the followers of David were Muslims, the followers of Moses were Muslims, the followers of Jesus (not Paul) were Muslims, etc. By definition, a Muslim is one who submits to the creator. It's not that these people are being "insincere", it's that non-Muslims see Islam as the religion of Muhammed ( peace be upon him ), while Muslims see Islam as the religion of Adam and the religion of every true prophet of God. == For your better understanding you should know the words these days like " J@w$ " and " Christians" we use to mean religion was not like that before. These words' original forms were used to mean a specific group of people for only that prophet { including the believers and non-believers of God ).

Allah isn't like "the God of Muslims". The word Allah literally translates to "The God", ie the God of all things that exist. If you read the Bible in Arabic, you'll see the word Allah being used for God. The language that Jesus spoke was Aramaic, and in Aramaic, the word for God is Alaha. The word Islam isn't in the bible because the bible's original language isn't Arabic. As per our paradigm, God sent messengers to all nations in their own languages. It isn't "appropriation", but rather it's an erroneous understanding of what Islam definitionally means.

@@dudefrombelgium dinosaures were never believed to be first of things. Many things were before them.

Forgive my ignorance, when was Mohammed born?

Muhammed didn't "establish" Islam, just for your information. He was just a prophet. In Islam, it is believed that all the prophets since Adam were Muslims (the word Muslim in Arabic means: the one who submits to god) and everyone who believed in the abrahamic god before Muhammad were Muslims, all the messengers and prophets were of the same god. It's believed that there was a time where Christianity got corrupted where they started worshipping Jesus as a god but he was just a prophet. But not all christians believed that, some still believed in the uncorrupted religion, those were Muslims. One of Muhammad's mentors (the father of his first wife) was actually one of those uncorrupted Christians that's why when an angel visited Muhammed he was one of the first ppl to believe him because it was written in their bible.

There's actually nothing particularly "special" about Muhammed except that he was the last prophet. It is believed he was the last, because documentation was already well established in human society so, the truth will be recorded and will always be available for future generations to find it. So no need for prophets anymore.

But Abraham is not a patriarch for Islam people?

The thing is as a Muslim, this question doesn’t make sense to us. Our belief is that Islam as a concept (the meaning of the word being submission to the oneness of God) existed starting with Adam and Eve. The law is what has been different from time to time and some nations have left this idea of submission to idol worship or innovation or whatever, thus the need for Messengers to reaffirm monotheism amongst certain nations. If you ask me if my ancestors were Muslim before the prophet Muhammad, there is one of two possibilities: 1. They were Muslim under Jesus (peace be upon him) or perhaps Moses (peace be upon him) before that, or Abraham, etc etc OR 2. They strayed from the path of the messengers and began worshipping something else But the real question is, how would I know that? If I know my ancestry as far back as the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and I know my ancestors accepted the message of the final messenger, I will assume they were Muslims under Jesus before him as that’s more likely seeing as they accepted the final message. But truly, I’d not know. My default would not be to assume they rejected any messenger as that’s a negative assumption. Hence why most Muslims will say “our ancestors were Muslims” The only people that would consistently answer this another would be people whose more recent ancestors reverted to Islam or people whose family name or village name is obviously Christian or Jewish, etc.

NO! That is ONE answer. And if you know nothing about religion, they will take that opportunity to try to influence your views and opinions. If you know any history, YOU may be the one influencing the uneducated! (Note from the end, it has a lot to do with what KIND of Muslim you were....!!)

@steven Actually, if we let go of the idea that scripture (any scripture) is literally true and instead we look at the wider historical context around and behind the stories of both Abraham and Moshe, look at archaeological evidence we have available, at textual evidence we have available, it seems more likely that IF Abraham and Moshe were real people and not legendary figures (which is honestly more likely) they both probably lived around 1800 BCE, just in different places, and weren't actually related. Their familial relationship was invented later to bridge the two stories into one.

The interpreter did not use the proper word that’s why they’re all answering incorrectly.

The translator used a wrong term. And to most Muslims, Islam has always existed since the times of Adam

Most of them were pagen arabs, but we dont care what our ancestor belived in😂In the quran ALLAH says: And when it is said to them, "Follow what Allah has revealed," they say, "Rather, we will follow that which we found our fathers doing." Even though their fathers understood nothing, nor were they guided?

Interesting. Thank you.

They perfectly understood the question...

@Shalom Shalom We use the same word, but don't mean the same thing.

Sister of Aaron daughter of imran would have understand the question lol

When saying Qabl al Islam - you can't interpret it any other way

Islam is the oldest religion. Qur'an 5:111 - And [remember] when I inspired to the disciples, "Believe in Me and in My messenger [i.e., Jesus]." They said, "We have believed, so bear witness that indeed we are Muslims [in submission to Allāh]." Even the disciples of Jesus were Muslims.

Are they incapable of asking for clarification?

​@alanharrison573 the question sounded like "are your grandparents Muslims? What about your grandparents parents?" The concept of being outside of Islam is embarrassing for Muslims and to speak of the people that came before then as being ignorant. Culturally it would be like asking someone 100 years ago why aren't your parents married? Can you tell us about other unmarried people and their bastard children. It's uncomfortable.

seen a couple of this man's videos and it seems to me that the translator gets very frustrated by his questions, I doubted she was asking the question correctly.

@@1adamuk or scary

Don't be dumb.....they answer according to their belief.....Islam claims that Islam was always there and all humans are born Muslims but their parents converted them to other religions.....that's why someone who's converted to Islam is called a revert.

It is clear as day that before Islam the Arabs were idolaters, At the center of religion during the Jahlia period, were the worship of trees and springs, demons and spirits, holy stones and idols, belief in gnomes and fortune tellers and the sacrifice of animals, foodstuffs and valuables. Each tribal group had its own gods, with a central god. The tribes had statues representing their idols, which they carried in their wanderings or kept in their homes. The religion was syncretistic, meaning it combined different ideas and views into one whole, and recognized gods brought from outside. "Allah", which in the Islamic period would be the name of the only monotheistic god, was in this period one of the various idols. He was not the only god, but he was considered the sovereign of the Kaaba, the sacred black stone in Mecca, later the holiest place for Islam. Allah is attributed fatherhood to three goddesses: "Allah" who was considered the goddess of the sun, "Aluza" and "Almanat". The women were a financial burden on the family. In the case of the birth of too many girls in the tribe, it was customary to bury the unwanted babies alive. , they took stones from the black Kaaba and worshiped the stones, and to this day they surround the black stone, except this time they are praying to Allah . Here is the evidence: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religion_in_pre-Islamic_Arabia The idols (daughters of Allah) are mentioned in the Qur'an in Sura 53 (Surah Al-Najm; Surah Ha-Kokhav), verses 19-20 - "Give your opinion about Allah and Al-Aza, and Mana, the other third. Do you have the male or the female?". The goddess Manat (Manat): Manat (Manat) is the most ancient goddess. Amr ben Lahai (Amr ben Lahi) is the one who brought the worship of this goddess to Arabia, he is considered the father of idols in Arabia. According to tradition, Manat was brought from the Levant (Al-Sham; Al-Sham). There is also another opinion, according to which it was brought from Moab. Amr placed the goddess on a sacred stone in a place called "Kadid" (Qadid), which is between Mecca and Madinah. The two ancient tribes, Al-Awas (Al-Os) and Al-Khazraj (Al-Khazraj), believed in it. These tribes lived in al-Madinah. Despite the belief of the two tribes in idols, when the Prophet Muhammad arrived in al-Madinah after the Hijra, they were the ones who received him and supported him, and that is why they are still called al-Ansar (Al-Ansar; "the supporters"), the friends of the prophet who supported him upon his arrival in al-Madinah. The pagan temple in Kadid became the place of pagan worship of these tribes. People would worship both Mecca and the goddess Menat in Kidid. The worship ceremonies in Kadid were held at fixed times usually after Hajj in Mecca. Gifts of silver and gold were also dedicated there to the goddess. Those in charge of the pagan temple of Manat are called Sadna - Sadna (singular: سادن). The meaning of the term saden is "the one in charge of the temple". Those appointed were a kind of priests of the pagan temple. They also set aside for themselves a percentage of the gifts (given to the goddess) as a reward, from which they made a living. When Mecca was conquered by the Muslims (headed by the Prophet Muhammad) in the 8th year of the Hijra, Muhammad ordered the destruction of the temple at Kadid as well as other temples in the area. The name Menat already appears in Nabatean inscriptions from the 4th century AD. The Arabic script began to be used already in Nabatean inscriptions. Nabatean is a Semitic language which belongs to the Aramaic languages. The origin of the name: Modern researchers have concluded that the origin of the name of the goddess Manat is from the Hebrew word "meni" which means fate / portion. [source needed] Also, the name can come from the Arabic word "Mania" = fate, death. From this etymological derivation the researchers concluded that Manat was the goddess of fate. The goddess Ellath (lat.) According to the composition of Ibn al-Kalbi (ابن الكلبي), the cult of Allah (اللت) entered the Arabian Peninsula shortly after the cult of Manat. The ritual center of Allah was in the city of Taif (طايف) which lies south of Mecca. The idols were brought from other places. Allah was represented in a white square stone that the members of the tribe of Thaqif (Thakif, one of the ancient tribes of Arabia) worshiped. In the pagan worship as it is described in the early Muslim tradition, in the temple of the goddess Allah there was a covering for the stone of the goddess (just as the Kaaba is covered with a black silk cloth, and like the veil that covered the Ark of the Covenant in the Jewish tradition). This covering is called in Arabic Kaswa (kiswa; a kind of veil). The entire area of the city of Taif is considered sacred because of the goddess Allah. In Arabic the word Haram ("Haram") means "holy area", similar to the city of Mecca which was considered holy due to the presence of the Kaaba in the city. The sanctity of a local house of worship ennobled the entire city. Ta'if was especially sacred in the eyes of the Thaqif tribe - they were in charge of the temple of Allah in the city. Under the white square stone was a pit into which slaughtered sacrifices and gifts were thrown: silver and gold vessels. It is also called Beit Otsar. The origin of the name Allah (Lat) Several hypotheses have been put forward about the origin of the name: Some believed that the source was ALILAT which appeared in ancient inscriptions. The researchers determined based on these inscriptions that it was the main god of the Arabs. Since it is close to the name Allah it was the main idol of the Arabs. The origin of the name is اللAT (ILAT) - the feminine form of the word الله. Another interpretation, according to which Allah was the name of a man from the tribe of Thakif, and that after his death Amr ben Lahai ordered to worship the white stone that the man was buried next to. Goddess Elaza (العُزّى) Elaza (العُزّى) was the latest goddess in the Arabian Peninsula. Her temple was in the area of Nakhala (نخلة) which is in the vicinity of Mecca. The tribe of Quraish and also some tribes in the north of the Arabian Peninsula who are called Macher (harmful) worshiped her. The Macher tribes (including the Quraish tribe) used to make a pilgrimage to the temple of Elaza to make sacrifices during the Hajj. The sanctity of the place was double at that time as both the Kaaba and the temple of Eleza were located in the same area. The area that was sanctified around the Al-Aza Temple was called Sakam (سقام). Near the temple of Elaza there were three trees that were considered sacred. The origin of the name Elaza (العُزّى) The root azze - azz - symbolizes glory / power. Julius Walhausen identified[citation needed] the worship of Elaza in the Arabian Peninsula with the worship of the planet Venus[clarification needed]. Elaza is the planet Venus according to Wallhausen's conclusion. He expands on details about Venus and states that it was called by the Jews and the Syrian Syrians - Kokhbata ("the star") = the Kokhbat (a nickname for the planet Venus). And her

How is the proper way to ask the question?

@@fgtrhwu2 Perhaps something like: «Before Prophet Muhammed, what was the religion of Arabs living in nowadays Palestine and Israel?» The present question suffers not only from «ancestors» getting lost in translation, but also from the unnecessary overload of subconsciously triggering the politically sensitive Palestinians with the probable Jewishness of their background. Generally, asking any political/religious/historic questions from any typical Israeli and/or Palestinian, is sort of similar to an engagement in a psychoanalytical therapy with a headstrong patient - that same proverbial bull in the china shop.

Interesting. Isn't there an Arabic word for ancient ancestors?

@@onestrangeanimal3212 I have a relatively long reply above that might somewhat answer your question. But let me make it clear that my own languages are French and Persian. My Arabic is only a touch better than my broken English. But I assume there must be some significant lingual registers in authentic Arabic (الفصحی) to resonate as «ancestors» does in English; however, with all due respect for our beloved Arab/Palestinian fellow humans, I doubt whether one out of a hundred of them enjoys that altitude of sublime Arabic literacy.

They're insecure.

@@ammarlakis Oh, it's an ethnic group, too.

It contradicts a mindset influenced by propaganda that has the word Jew as an insult. Not in all cases, but in too many. I know many Lebanese, Egyptian, Indonesian Muslims who now live in N.

@@sulistyopudjo6433 Jews aren't Arabs, Jews are originally Canaanites, the ethnic group of the south Levant in the first and second Millennia BC. from the Roman conquest and in later centuries there were more conversion based additions to Judaism, from both Arab and European populations.

As Muslims we believe that Adam is a Muslim so as Ibraham, Moses, Jesus etc all of them as Muslims so no it is not disturbing but the question is misleading. Secondly Jews did not exist in palestine at the time of Mohammed, they were kicked out long before that. So you reply is also misleading to who reads it

@@lM-ls5jg not correct buddy, while yes the majority of Judean Jews were kicked out after the Romans expulsion, a minority of Jews has stayed, lived and existed thoroughly until today. Now by definition, muslims are people that submit their will to God, so by technicality yes they were Muslims, however Jesus did consider himself jewish

It's very difficult for non muslims to understand this. We believe that the 1st Muslim was Adam because he believed in 1 God. For Arabs they were the descendants of Abraham through Prophet Ismail (Ishmael)

@@alshami7456 Your answer is a theological one, and that is fine. But the question is, what did those pre-Islamic people actually practice? They could be Muslim souls, but they did not yet practice Islam since it wasn't yet brought into the world.

I believe that was the question Cory meant to ask, but he will have to chime in to confirm.

​@@BFGUITAR ah yeah that's better

They could not honestly answer that. Muslims are from Arabia. They know that if they said their ancestors were originally Jews, they would be admitting Jews are the indigenous people of the Land and Arabs are not.

Forced to convert to Islam, not Judaism. Jews never forced any conversions.

Exactly! It’s so obvious that they want to uphold a utopian fantasy rather than reality. 🤦🏼‍♀️

not true at all... lol you guys don't even speak arabic.. this whole thing was translated so wrongly. and also.. we muslims believe that every christian and jew before prophet muhammad was considered a muslim.. but the word muslim means "one who submits to God"... the way the west perceives islam is just so wrong. you don't understand it nor do you understand our language either or our theology.

We didn't need this video for that, just a look at a map from Antiquity. Most of the Mediterranean sea became Christian, once the Roman Empire swapped religion. It remained that way, until it 1st fragmented between West and East (and as the Pope was getting stronger and stronger). Then the hords of the muslim caliphates swept through, and massacred everyone (like they harass the Coptes today in Egypt). So basically Islam is a story of intolerance and violence.

==From an Islamic position, Islam didn't start with Muhammed. Islam started with Adam. ==The followers of Abraham were Muslims, the followers of David were Muslims, the followers of Moses were Muslims, the followers of Jesus (not Paul) were Muslims, etc. By definition, a Muslim is one who submits to the creator. It's not that these people are being "insincere", it's that non-Muslims see Islam as the religion of Muhammed ( peace be upon him ), while Muslims see Islam as the religion of Adam and the religion of every true prophet of God. == For your better understanding you should know the words these days like " J@w$ " and " Christians" we use to mean religion was not like that before. These words' original forms were used to mean a specific group of people for only that prophet { including the believers and non-believers of God ). ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' The need to send Muhammad ( peace be upon him ) was to save Allah's creations from corrupt manuscripts like you have today and you can sense it by looking yours , you even don't bother about from who you get it or among so many B@ib0l which one is correct !!! ++++++++++++++++ My friend, Islam isn't a race, it's the act of submitting to the creator. Allah isn't like "the God of Muslims". The word Allah literally translates to "The God", ie the God of all things that exist. If you read the Bible in Arabic, you'll see the word Allah being used for God. The language that Jesus spoke was Aramaic, and in Aramaic, the word for God is Alaha. The word Islam isn't in the bible because the bible's original language isn't Arabic. As per our paradigm, God sent messengers to all nations in their own languages. It isn't "appropriation", but rather it's an erroneous understanding of what Islam definitionally means. People who assume Islam is just another religion with their own God, etc are either misinformed or unwilling to learn. The question is problematic.

Yes, the phillistines were of Greek descent. However, DNA and archeological evidence shows they lived in modern day Gaza area for 200 years (around 600 BCE) but were eliminated at the time of the deportation of Jews to Babylon. There is no connection between the Philistines and the Palestinians. Actually, DNA has shown more connection between Palestinian Arabs and Palestinian Jews than Palestinian Arabs and the ancient Philistines.
