RE: Mingtombs Museum: Jadestones was everywhere in ancient China!
From the color selection to the design, great attention was paid to establishing harmony and oneness with the works. The Chinese emperors believed they were very near to God and sacred dragons were their protectors, therefore their clothes contained so many dragons in different shapes and colors. And I can see it in every corner of each cloth which is displayed in the museum. Everything is almost similar in appearance in aspects of having dragons on these clothes.
"as-salaam 'alaykum"! @tanzil2024 !
Dear my bro Hassan!
I always enjoy looking at your excellent photos!
I was intrigued by the fact that you were so interested in Chinese history!
It's more interesting because I study Chinese history.
Since ancient times, Chinese emperors have claimed to be the sons of gods.
The Chinese claimed to be descendants of dragons.
The dragon thus became a symbol of the Chinese emperor.
For East Asians, including China, the dragon is treated as a sacred being because it is a symbol of the emperor.
So, The sacredness of dragons is revealed in Japanese animation Dragon Ball .
Hassan!
I wonder what kind of dragon is in Islam.
Are you familiar with the past kings who ruled Bangladesh?😃
Thanks for your informative comment, I love exploring and sometimes try to learn a little deeper when I find something interesting. Like becoming the son of god, I got this kind of thought from a Chinese movie!
In Islam, the concept of GOD is totally different, we call Him by many names, but 'Allah' is most of the time we call our God, and we don't know much about Him, only that portion He tells us about Him in the Quran and Hadith from our prophet (PBUH), and it is strictly prohibited to add something new or making the concept mixing with other religious Gods' perception. Allah is unique and one from all perspectives, and He has no son or daughter. So, the concept of a Dragon has no place in Islam, there is no difference between a king or the common man or a beggar, all are the same in the eye of Islam, just a creation of Allah as a human. And, everyone is liable for his or her actions, everyone will be asked for his deeds, no nepotism regarding your colors, family status, assets, beauty, ethnicity, or anything, that we use now for classifications.
We have been ruled by the British for around 200 years, I have little knowledge regarding our Kings, but they never introduced themselves as God's son or some supernatural as around 1000 AD, we were ruled by the Muslim emperor, but before that may some Gods' related stories can be found with some Hindu Kings, which I don't know as I have never read the history of that period. Most of the time I read after 1000/1100 AD.
Yeah, Hassan! I agree with you!
I believe 'Allah' is the Islamic name for Yahweh.
I was surprised to learn that there was no king from the Indian subcontinent who ruled the entire region of Bengal.😯
The Mughal Empire
East Asians like me think that the Mughal Empire ruled the entire Indian subcontinent.
Thank you for kind ansewer!😃
