Muslim Rulers Were Enemies of True Islam.

Introduction: We should read history because it helps us understand how people lived before us and why the world is the way it is today. History teaches us lessons from past mistakes so we do not repeat them. It shows how nations rise and fall, how wars begin and how peace is made. By reading history, we learn to think deeply, respect different cultures and make wiser decisions for the future.

Islam is peace, but Muslim rulers were violent.

The history of Islam is beautiful, but the history of Muslim rulers is horrible. Banu Umayyah martyred Muslims mercilessly to consolidate their rule—they even martyred members of the family of the Holy Prophet ﷺ, Hasan and Hussain. However, in 750 CE, Banu Abbas hunted down members of Banu Umayyah and put them to death. They destroyed the Umayyad dynasty completely. They even opened the graves of Umayyad caliphs, exhumed their bodies and burnt them. They also opened the grave of the founder of the Umayyad dynasty, Amir Mu‘awiyah.

Later on, the Mongols (the progeny of Chengaz Khan) destroyed the Abbasid dynasty even more mercilessly in 1258 CE. 

The Ottoman Empire was founded by Osman I around 1299. They fought Europeans and, at times, Muslim rebel dynasties.

Ottoman rule formally ended in 1922 when Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, a secular ruler, abolished the Ottoman Sultanate, leading to the establishment of the Republic of Turkey. 

Now there are about 50 timid and hypocritical Muslim nations that are being beaten and disgraced daily by a rat-like non-Muslim nation from the Middle East.

To sum up, the worst enemies of the peaceful message of Islam have always been the Muslim rulers themselves, unfortunately.
