Al Mansur, the Founder of Baghdad | 754CE - 775CE | Abbasid Caliphate #02

I always say that perhaps more than any other, three people defined the Islamic Civilization the most, after Prophet Muhammad, of course. The first is Umar ibn al-Khattab, whose decisions both as Abu Bakr’s advisor and as the second caliph, protected Islam in its infancy by defeating the Eastern Roman and Sassanid Empires. Then comes Abd al-Malik, the man who restored the Umayyad caliphate after the Second Civil War. He defined what Hugh Kennedy calls, the Executive Caliphate. Then comes the man this video is about, the second caliph of the Abbasid Dynasty, Caliph Abu Ja'far al-Mansur.
