I'm French, and we are talking about Al Andalus in our Spanish class, it's absolutely amazing ! Arabic culture is very impressive, and the music absolutely charming !

سلام على كل عربي وقعت عيناه على تعليقي، تمسكوا بهويتكم و حافظوا على دينكم و لغتكم و عربوا ألسنتكم لعل شمل الأمة يجتمع يوماً ما، و تذكروا أن كونكم عرباً ليس مرتبطاً بعرقكم بالضرورة، بل بثقافتكم و ثقافة أجدادكم و لغتكم.

Being Mexican it’s insane to think how deep the roots of culture go in regards to music. Rich on both sides, Aztec and going as far back as Vandals. Then those stringed instruments having their roots in the Middle East and spreading both west and east and influencing other cultures is honestly beautiful. Ima play this at the carñe asada while making tacos Al Pastor which originated in Lebanon 🇱🇧 and came with them when they came to Mexico 🇲🇽 in the 1930s.

The mix of the arab and spanish culture is amazing 😍 😢
-
I'm surprised to not see any hate comments now, but i'm glad of that :') finally some peace, listening to beautiful music.
-
This is honestly beautiful, even the Arabic has a Spanish inflection and has that beautiful Mediterranean/Medieval style in music
-
For those who don't know, Andalus means Land of the Vandals in Arabic. I love this period of Iberia's music!

I'm Moroccan and I'm proud of being Arab Muslim 🇲🇦. My regards to all my Spanish friends.

Im from Seville, Andalusia. I recently did a DNA test to learn more about my ethnic background and in fact Im about 10% North African and 2% Oriental Middle Eastern which makes historically sense because of the muslim rule especially in the south of Spain. Nevertheless the other 88% are split into European ethnicities: Native Iberian, Greek, Italian and Balkanic. I think this resembels very well the origin of people from ancient Al-Andalus. We're a mixture of many cultures and ethnicities and my beautiful home Andalucia represents all of them.

I love arabic culture for the calm that their music gives me. I get the impression that everything in Europe is done with a dose anger, impatience and unease somewhere under the surface

True Mediterranean spirit

from Algeria, thanks to this Moroccan singer.

Amazing, just today I was paying attention to flamenco's way of singing and it sounded so Arabic, I don't know how I didn't notice before but then I remember the war with the Moors and now everything makes sense 🤷🏻 even the Spanish classic guitar evolved from Arab stringed instruments. Even Mexican tacos that I adore evolved from Arab kebab 😂 I love you middle eastern brothers!

Tantas marcas da cultura árabe permanecem na Ibéria... A música é uma linguagem universal!

Al Andalus has contributed many things to music and for it's development.
