I’ve followed this channel for a bit as I delve into learning the history of Islam. I saw the new Palestine episode and was cautiously optimistic while skimming the transcript this morning. Twice so far I’ve seen mentions of how if Israel stayed a single state and allowed Palestinians to be...Read full review »

This might be long. Every time I have had a child, my iman has suffered. I don’t know why, but I have had three children and each time it got worse. After the birth of my last baby in 2020 I stopped praying altogether and completely lost my connection with my chosen faith (I am 34 and converted...Read full review »

Great Podcast! I’m an atheist who just loves to learn, I would recommend this podcast to anyone looking for a narrative tool to learn about Islamic history. My only complaint is that the host’s religious bias shows through a bit here and there. I’m not through the whole show so far but I would...Read full review »

I have always been a fan of history and I love this podcast because it is extremely informative and entertaining. It allows me to learn about famous islamic figure and islam in general because islamic history have a lot to do with the religion itself.

I love listening to this podcast especially on my drive back and forth from work. My only criticism would be the organization of the seasons. After listening to the first three seasons, I realized that the first season continued after the end of the third season. So then, I had to go back and...Read full review »
Afsana_n via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/11/23
This podcast leaves lot tone desired. The host is obviously not a history buff. There are errors, mostly minor but still annoying in what is supposed to be factual history, in just about every episode I have listened to. Plus there is always a push to pay for a “subscription”, with a very...Read full review »

I heard season two on Spotify, which led me here to explore more. Hats off to the creator for putting in the effort to compile such a captivating podcast.

I am only at Season 2 episode 8 and I am so grateful to the host. I’ve learned so much and I appreciate especially how clear he is and not trying to whitewash certain events. For example I struggled to learn about Khalid ibn Walid’s poor behavior toward women (the ones he married and slave...Read full review »

From a Christian background, I was surprised I didn’t know so many facts and points of view from this part of our history. I’ve spent long ours listening to Muttaqi. It’s like a journey through time while you’re comfortably at home, in your car or in a hotel.
sonofwill330 via Apple Podcasts · Spain · 09/12/22
I was looking for a new podcast to listen during my commute which is of 45 minutes each way. Stumbled upon Islamic history podcast, and started listening almost 1 month back, I am Allhumdulliah so glad I found this. As I came to know what I don’t possess. I am so thankful to Mutaqi Ismail for...Read full review »
Maverick_1304 via Apple Podcasts · United Arab Emirates · 08/26/22
I was really enjoying this podcast until season 3, Br. Ismail is passing unauthentic events as fact and that really started to make me no longer enjoy this podcast. Season 3 is filled with Shia bias events, who are we as Muslims to judge the Companions of the Prophet(saw)? There is no evidence...Read full review »

This podcast is one of my personal favourites. The actual real life value of this is enormous. Indeed, this can be considered a monumental achievement.
Jack de France via Apple Podcasts · Germany · 05/18/22
This podcast bizarrely presents history from the perspective of official western power. Many western historians regularly critique the official narratives however this podcast just parrots it as if it is fact. I don’t recommend anyone listening to any of this podcast at all.
Quran is truth via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/10/22
I really enjoy these detailed and insightful podcasts! Jzk to the brother for spending so much effort to get us this content! May Allah bless him and his family. I was able to finish the entire series on the life of Prophet SAW and now onto this!
javedrah via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/06/22
This could be interesting but this guy is boring. He is obviously reading a script in the most monotone, boring fashion. I want to learn about this subject, but he is not capable of keeping me engaged.

A wonderful tool to add value to one’s down time.

Skaleem29 via Apple Podcasts · India · 12/20/21
This is a good podcast for sure and worth listening to. However, I couldn’t get passed messing up some facts specifically revolving around Syria. Here’s just a few. Al-Qassam was Syrian freedom fighter who went to fight in Palestine he wasn’t a Palestinian freedom fighter. Second, what happened...Read full review »

First, I wanna say this is the podcast that got me really into Islamic History and history in general. With that said, I wanna keep this review brief: Islamic History Podcast is a very elaborate and multi-faceted account on Islamic history—with focus especially on MENA, Ottomans, and Central...Read full review »

IbrahimaBah via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/30/21
This has been a thoroughly educational podcast with terrific research and professional production. Br. Muttaqi remains balanced and fair during every single episode.

I’ve been listening to this podcast for 3 years now. Huge parts of my knowledge on islamic history comes solely from this podcast

One of the best podcasts I have ever listened to ! It has the perfect combination of education and story telling that can keep any listener captivated. Have been a listener for years.
osama_k123 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/23/21
Original and well done show. Its islamic history but nothing like the usual lectures we hear in masjid. Very fair and balanced views!

It is ok in the facts and sequence of events. However, there is some facts that are wrong one example being when he said that Bosnia and Herzegovina is collectively called Serbia. Not sure what textbook has ever said that. Another problem is the mispronunciation and stumbling of works almost like...Read full review »

Ma'shaAllah great job br. Abu Ibrahim Muttaqi Ismail. Being a muslim by birth in a Muslim country still did not know so much of muslim and Islamic history. This Podcast is a great resource.

I really like this podcast but I was on season 1 but now it’s all gone is there anywhere else you can listen to it
EDBCH via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/05/20
It’s so difficult to find good English resources when it comes to Islamic history. From what I’ve heard so far this is a brief introduction to so much history I’ve heard individual stories and narrations about but never understood the context. I love this podcast and I am so thankful I found it!...Read full review »

Is this Islamic at all ? Pls people check ur podcasts this is NOT for Muslims
zsbbbbbbg via Apple Podcasts · Nigeria · 09/15/20
An important but often less well known side of world history, well explained with a lot of useful details and repetitions. :) Awesome research. Easy-to-listen informal tone and very nice pleasant voice.
Angryfish via Apple Podcasts · Sweden · 09/02/20
There are not many good podcasts on this topic. By far, this is one of the best I’ve come across. Highly recommended for those who have an interest in this topic.
Oriental Guest via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 08/29/20
Informative and well presented. Unique podcast that every muslim and non muslim should listen. Well done.
Imr271073 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/10/20
