Did Islam spread by the sword and force? The answer is: Yes!!

The YouTube video titled "Did Islam spread by the sword and force? The answer is: Yes!!" by Gaza and Islam addresses common accusations about the spread of Islam. The speaker confidently asserts that Islam did indeed spread with the help of the sword, but this was necessary to protect justice and establish peace. He emphasizes that Islam is fundamentally a religion of peace and justice, citing examples from history where the morals and conduct of Muslims helped spread the faith, particularly in regions like India and Southeast Asia. The speaker refutes claims that Islam was spread purely by violence, arguing that true belief cannot be imposed by force, as evidenced by the enduring faith of Muslims even after the decline of Muslim political power in various regions. He also draws parallels between the military actions of early Muslims and those of contemporary nations, asserting that military strength is often celebrated as a means of protection and justice. The video concludes with a strong defense of Islam's principles, highlighting the difference between oppressive power and the power that safeguards truth and justice.
