Presentations


Geography of Arabian Peninsula
This presentation opened my eyes and made realize that the geography of the Arabian Peninsula isn't so simple and that it did affect the religion. This Peninsula is surrounded by three seas, and the climate is arid and sami-arid, they also have many monsoons. And there are politically seven countries : Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, United Arab Emirates. There climate is arid and semi- arid. There population is 77,983,936 people. All these good things and it’s also no an earthquake zone. There life expectancy is until age 65. Although there climates might be mildly cold during the nights its freezing.

Muslim Extremism
Muslim Extremesim was a big topic. The situation in the Islam relgion is higher then it ever was before. Now they are manipulated and forced to fight with Osama Bin Laden. While Osama Bin Laden globalizes Jihad which are the military bases founded in Pakistan. They fight and terrorize for there religion, but they inly use religion as an excuse to terrorize. This terrorism for religion created carvings for there money and power.


Women today and women before in Islam
This topic opened my eyes for sure, and I was happy for the life I have and I was thankful. Many women are mistreated and manipulated they are legally married at age 9-14, and they are allowed to be beat by there spouse if they diobey them regarding the age. Also after break ups a women would not inherit anything from her husband. Men are allowed to kill any women in there life. Women are forced to wear a jihad and be covered from head to toe. They are most independent in Turkey, and free. Women today are not allowed to drive, or study, but most likey to clean the house. may not work in the government.

Islam Architecture
The architecture was very unique and very beautiful, it was very interesting that they didn’t use those complicatied decorations on other things than the Archittecture, also the Qurán was heavily decorated. I learnt that the houses from the architecture were rectangular, and a very interesting thing was that they are suitable to the climate. Also not only buildings are decorated with there art.

Prophet Muhammad
I knew a lot about him even before this was presented but of course I did learn some new things and I managed to learn some days and importsnt walk so although I did learn something. He was born in Mecca and started the religion there, whehn he got a vision from angel Gabriel he wrote the Qurán. And he moved o different places of the world for conquering tradin and spreading the religion.

Military During the Islam Empire
I think one of the ways that the Islamic Empire became more advanced is the military. Because the leaders made more converts and they also made there tools more advanced weapons. Another way thy spread there religion through these military forces, how they moved to place to place conquering other place and gathering more foillowers as well as soldiers. They fought hard and strong and they still do. Some new improvements they made are the weapons which are Muskets, Cannons and Shileds were used in moderntized Islam Empire.

Islam Religion
Although I also did Islam religion, I did learn some new things as well. For example the five pillars of Islam were new to me, I knew the names but never there importants.
  1. Shahadah
  2. Salah
  3. Zakah
  4. Sawm
  5. Hajj
In this presentation I also learnt something about the women. The way the people pray and there population in Europe, and how much they pray a day it was interesting.
