Kirigidi: See few of muslims contributions to development of science and modernity. The greatest scientific advances from the Muslim world From the elephant clock to the camera obscura, here are six amazing inventions from between the 9th and 15th centuries Jim Al-Khalili Ibn Firnas' flying contraption. There is no such thing as Islamic science – for science is the most universal of human activities. But the means to facilitating scientific advances have always been dictated by culture, political will and economic wealth. What is only now becoming clear (to many in the west) is that during the dark ages of medieval Europe, incredible scientific advances were made in the Muslim world. Geniuses in Baghdad, Cairo, Damascus and Cordoba took on the scholarly works of ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, Persia, Greece, India and China, developing what we would call "modern" science. New disciplines emerged – algebra, trigonometry and chemistry as well as major advances in medicine, astronomy, engineering and agriculture. Arabic texts replaced Greek as the fonts of wisdom, helping to shape the scientific revolution of the Renaissance. What the medieval scientists of the Muslim world articulated so brilliantly is that science is universal, the common language of the human race. The 1001 Inventions exhibition at London's Science Museum tells some of the stories of this forgotten age. Here are my top six exhibits . . . 1 The elephant clock This centrepiece of the exhibition is a three-metre high replica of an early 13th-century water clock and one of the engineering marvels of the medieval world. It was built by al-Jazari, and gives physical form to the concept of multiculturalism. It features an Indian elephant, Chinese dragons, a Greek water mechanism, an Egyptian phoenix, and wooden robots in traditional Arabian attire. The timing mechanism is based on a water-filled bucket hidden inside the elephant. 2 The camera obscura The greatest scientist of the medieval world was a 10th century Arab by the name of Ibn al-Haytham. Among his many contributions to optics was the first correct explanation of how vision works. He used the Chinese invention of the camera obscura (or pinhole camera) to show how light travels in straight lines from the object to form an inverted image on the retina. 3 Al-Idrisi's world map This three-metre reproduction of the famous 12th-century map by the Andalusian cartographer, Al-Idrisi (1100-1166), was produced in Sicily and is regarded as the most elaborate and complete description of the world made in medieval times. It was used extensively by travellers for several centuries and contained detailed descriptions of the Christian north as well as the Islamic world, Africa and the Far East. 4 The Banu Musa brothers' "ingenious devices" These three brothers were celebrated mathematicians and engineers in ninth-century Baghdad. Their Book of Ingenious Devices, published in 850, was a large illustrated work on mechanical devices that included automata, puzzles and magic tricks as well as what we would today refer to as "executive toys". 5 Al-Zahrawi's surgical instruments This array of weird and wonderful devices shows the sort of instruments being used by the 10th-century surgeon al-Zahrawi, who practised in Cordoba. His work was hugely influential in Europe and many of his instruments are still in use today. Among his best-known inventions were the syringe, the forceps, the surgical hook and needle, the bone saw and the lithotomy scalpel. 6 Ibn Firnas' flying contraption (above) Abbas Ibn Firnas was a legendary ninth-century inventor and the Da Vinci of the Islamic world. He is honoured on Arabic postage stamps and has a crater on the moon named after him. He made his famous attempt at controlled flight when, aged 65, he built a rudimentary hang glider and launched himself from the side of a mountain. Some accounts claim he remained airborne for several minutes before landing badly and hurting his back. Jim Al-Khalili is an author and broadcaster. He is professor of physics and of the public engagement in science at the University of Surrey. 1 Like |

What is happening to us in Yoruba land of late ? This is not who we are folks ! Religious tolerance is one of our key values and that's why in our land,nobody really cares so much about anybody's faith or religion. Emphasis is placed on high moral standard, one of the virtues of an "Omoluabi". Come on guys,what's wrong with us ? As a young Muslim then,I attended Christian schools for both elementary ( Methodist primary school) and secondary ( Anglican commercial grammar school) educations and there was nothing like discrimination or victimisation of any kind at the time. At the secondary school assembly then,especially on Fridays,a Muslim teacher would conduct the Assembly's affairs that day and prayed for everybody. There was peace,unity and love and that's why today,90% of all my friends are Christians. I must say that I love them and them love me genuinely too. Same level of tolerance,love,peace and unity was obtainable at all the Muslim missionary schools like Ansarudeen,Nawairudeen,A.U.D,Islamiyyah etc in our town. There were lot of Christians in those schools who enjoyed their peace and were not discriminated against religiously in anyway. So,what has changed ? How did we get here ? As a people,we should not allow those fanatics - religious merchants to use their evil instrument of religion to divide us. My children attend a Christian owned school and I comply with all their rules and regulations which did not affect my religious belief and faith in anyway. My Egyptian Neighbour ,tenant actually,wanted to enroll her daughter in the same school because of the school high educational and moral standard,but she was told her daughter could only wear the school beret but not hijab. She eventually took her child to another school,a Muslim school and that's it ! The school can't bend their rules to accommodate her faith and I don't see that as religious discrimination in anyway. After all, there are lot of Muslims students in that school,including my own children who are Muslims too ! The urgent and worrisome issue of insecurity in our land is what we should focus on rather than this petty religious nonsense of hijab or no hijab. We should talk to fanatics among us,both Muslims and Christians, that we have common enemies in fulani herdsmen and land grabbers who are hellbent on turning our land to another Kaduna south,Zamfara,Benue,Jos,etc. We should focus on those nomadic savages from sahel with a view to sending them out of our land. |

The high court & court of appeal has ruled in favor of Muslims girls, why the noise & abuse of rule of law ?. Its a fact that many Christians worship the anti Christ. |

TAO11: You are so right... In America you can't practice your religion publicly in schools, you can only do that in private groups or privately in schools. Wearing hijab isn't compulsory but optional. Christians seems to be at fault this time. To me, both religion are hypocrites and enemies to one another. The problem will keep repeating itself over and over again. The same way you said the school is a government funded missionary school, that's the same way Kano and some other northern states are government funded Islamic states. What I will just say is that, for peace to reign, every person should stay on their own lane and stop forcing their beliefs on others by using one means on another. If you don't wear hijab you shouldn't be concerned about a student that wears hijab in your school. |

iwaeda:Accommodating you said?. Accommodate who?. ILORIN has always been Muslim majority for decades and have accommodated christians. They never had religious problems until CAN decided to promote Christianity in Nigeria and especially Yorubaland. Go and read their manifesto. It said it all. Christians were funded by Western govt btw 1989 to 2000 to obliterate Islam and Muslims from Nigeria. I repeat, to hell with CAN, Christian Association Of NIGERIA. It is a religious fanatic organization that needs to be disbanded. Again, I urge you to read their 1994 christian manifesto orchestrated at Ebute Meta and published in Ibadan. Check my profile for more information and educate yourself. CAN is enemy of state. CAN is a bastard christian religion organization, period. |

BlueSparks: Both the Ilorin High Court and the Court of Appeal have ruled in favour of hijab. It is therefore illegal, illegitimate, unlawful and unconstitutional for CAN to insist that its members should not obey the courts and that the schools should not allow female Muslim students to use the hijab or even enter the school premises. It is the height of lawlessness. https://www.herald.ng/on-hijab-we-stand-muric-slams-can-for-protesting-kwara-schools-court-order/ |

The churches bought the lands, built the buildings, equipped the schools and pairs the teachers before the Government GRANT-AIDED the schools. How much did the government PAY for the schools?

Lagoon0:there is a school called Muslim college in ijebu-ode founded and funded by Muslims. By 1970s post-biafra, govt took over schools and they become public but their original names were retained. Anyone can attend any public schools. Both Muslims and christians attend Muslim college and there was never any problems. Christians are allowed to worship. Muslims are allowed to wear hijab by choice. Anyone can also wear beret not by force. The same is true of this missionary school in ilorin. Govt has taken over the school since 1970s but retained their missionary name. Being missionary school doesn't mean it is Christian School. It is govt school. The school must abide by state law. |

Omoodua007: ALMOST EVERYTHING YOU TYPED HERE IS FALSE. NOW LET'S ANALYSE THE RELIGIOUS DEMOGRAPHICS OF YORUBA-SPEAKING PEOPLE OF NIGERIA CAREFULLY AND IN TRUTH. LAGOS: THE INDEGINOUS PEOPLE OF LAGOS STATE ( Epe, Awori, Ikorodu, and Lagos Islanders are predominantly Muslims) ITS STATUS AS THE MELTING POT OF ALL TRIBES AND FAITHS (mostly non-Yoruba southerners) SEEMS TO BE THE REASON YOU'RE CLAIMING A CHRISTIAN MAJORITY MEDAL FOR IT. OYO: THIS STATE IS PREDOMINANTLY MUSLIM NO DOUBT. THERE DOESN'T SEEM TO BE ANY MAJOR TOWN IN OYO (apart from Ogbomoso which appears evenly split between the two faiths) THAT HAS A CHRISTIAN MAJORITY. KWARA: THE YORUBA-SPEAKING POPULATION OF KWARA IS ALSO PREDOMINANTLY MUSLIM. EVEN THE IGBOMINA PEOPLE PUT TOGETHER, HAVE MORE MUSLIMS THAN CHRISTIANS OSUN: OSUN CLEARLY ALSO HAS MORE MUSLIMS THAN CHRISRIANS NO DOUBT. THE ONLY TWO MAJOR TOWNS HERE WITH A CHRISTIAN MAJORITY ARE IFE AND ILESHA. THE ONLY TOWN IN WESTERN NIGERIA SAID TO HAVE EVER IMPLEMENTED THE SHARIAH LAW, "IWO" IS IN OSUN. KOGI: THIS STATE IS NOT A YORUBA STATE BUT IT HAS PREDOMINANCE OF MUSLIMS, CONTRARY TO YOUR CLAIM. THE THREE MAJOR TRIBES IN KOGI ARE IGALA, EBIRA AND OKUN, IN ORDER OF SIZE. THE SMALLEST AMONG THE THREE IS THE OKUN, SOME OF WHOM IN FACT CLAIM NOT TO BE YORUBA. THEY HAVE MORE CHRISTIANS THAN MUSLIMS THOUGH BUT ARE NOT A LARGE GROUP. OGUN: THE THREE MAJOR GROUPS IN OGUN (according to dialect) ARE IJEBU, EGBA AND YEWA AND ALL ARE MORE MUSLIM THAN CHRISTIAN. IN SPITE OF THE CONVERSIONS FROM ISLAM TO CHRISTIANITY SEEN IN THESE AREAS, THERE'S STILL A MUSLIM PREDOMINANCE. EKITI AND ONDO: THESE ARE THE ONLY TWO STATES IN THE SOUTHWEST WITH A CHRISTIAN MAJORITY. EKITI HOWEVER IS THE LEAST POPULATED AMONG THE SIX S/W STATES. IN FACT THE POPULATION OF OYO STATE IS ROUGHLY THE SAME AS THOSE OF EKITI AND ONDO PUT TOGETHER (check the 2016 population estimates of Nigeria), AND OYO IS PREDOMINANTLY MUSLIM NOTE: THERE ARE MILLIONS OF YORUBA PEOPLE (mostly Muslims) WHO HAVE LIVED IN THE NORTH FOR GENERATIONS AND WHO READILY IDENTIFY AS YORUBA. |
