The Clown: Those inventions were not made because of Islam, they were made in spite of Islam. Those who made them were termed unbelievers and were persecuted. , Sorry to disappoint you, There was no equivalent of Galileo and co in the muslim world. Many of the most knowledgeable people in the sciences were actually religious scholars or very knowledgeable in religion. Read some history books. 1 Like |

Algebra wasn't really a Muslim invention. As we know it though, Muslim scholars played a crucial part in its development to its modern form. But algebra was learnt by them from the Persians, who conquered Arabs BTW, and before them I'm sure Egyptians and Greeks (eg Pythagoras) would have made important contributions. The most important role Arab scholars played was preserving and adding to algebra whilst Europe lulled in the Dark Ages. It was Arab texts that were the basis of Maths then. 1 Like |

When the mongols conquered baghdad, they destroyed all books and killed the scholars. The fact that knowledge was preserved, built upon and not destroyed as is common with conquerers was vital to our modern age. 1 Like |

The word algebra comes from the Arabic language (الجبر al-jabr "restoration" from the title of the book Ilm al-jabr wa'l-muḳābala by al-Khwarizmi. The word entered the English language during Late Middle English from either Spanish, Italian, or Medieval Latin. Algebra originally referred to a surgical procedure, and still is in Spanish, while the mathematical sense was a later development. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebra#Etymology 1 Like
