Anchor Series #12 | 03/24/26 – How Colonization Shaped Modern Islamic Discourse Part. 3 In this lecture, Shaykh Yasir Qadhi explores the overlooked history of the printing press in the Muslim world and why its adoption lagged behind Europe. He examines whether scholars were truly responsible, introduces historiography, and challenges simplistic narratives about Islam, technology, and modernity. Drawing on examples including paper, the printing press, the fall of Constantinople, and animal rights, he encourages a more critical understanding of Islamic history and its lessons for today. 0:00-0:40 Highlights 0:41-2:40 Intro 2:41-5:25 What is Historiography 5:26-11:40 Paper & Islamic History 11:41-12:50 Printing Press in Europe 12:51-15:43 Ottoman Ban on Printing Press 15:44-18:11 Decline of the Muslim Ummah 18:12-19:51 Political Ban on Printing Press 19:52-23:37 Conquest of Constantinople(Istanbul) 23:38-30:13 Revisiting the Ban 30:14-31:59 Conservatism and Stagnation 32:00-35:43 The First Printed Magazine 35:44-42:46 Islam & Modern Ideas 42:47-45:03 Conclusion Please LIKE, COMMENT, & SHARE! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ► Credits: *Note: No musical instruments were used in this video, all background noise is human acapella.* Intro & Outro Nasheed Artist: Ibraheem Bakeer Produced by: MAQAMAT INSTITUTION Copyright reserved and reproduced exclusively with permission for Yasir Qadhi's Official YouTube Channel. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ► Shaykh Dr. Yasir Qadhi - Official Social Media Pages Facebook: facebook.com/yasirqadhi Instagram: instagram.com/yasir.qadhi Twitter: twitter.com/yasirqadhi Snapchat: snapchat.com/add/yasir.qadhi --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- © Shaykh Dr. Yasir Qadhi - Official YouTube Channel
