Who was Salman the Persian, and how did he influence Islam? Also, who were the green clad ‘angels’ who helped the Muslim army at Badr? This video contains many fascinating historical tidbits from the Sasanian and Persian perspective. The only area I might disagree with Jason Reza Jorjani is that this was pre-planned, and not just decisions made, that seemed to make the most sense at the moment. What I find most interesting is his view on the green clad ‘angels’ mounted on horses. (Dan Gibson)
