Islam, Philosophy and Science in Baghdad-Islamic Golden Age

Baghdad Islamic Culture at its Height in Philosophy and Science
The Islamic Golden Age is traditionally dated from the mid-8th to the mid-13th century A.D. (sack of Baghdad) although it has been extended by one scholar to at least the 15th century.
During this period, artists, engineers, scholars, poets, philosophers, geographers and traders in the Islamic world contributed to agriculture, the arts, economics, industry, law, literature, navigation, philosophy, sciences, sociology, and technology, both by preserving earlier traditions and by adding inventions and innovations of their own. Howard R. Turner writes: "Muslim artists and scientists, princes and laborers together made a unique culture that has directly and indirectly influenced societies on every continent.

@Ryanyarb24 Yes. It's yet another dhimmi programme proclaiming the supposed contributions that Islam made to science and learning. Of course they can't explain how come nomadic bandit slavers somehow were suddenly great architects, engineers, stone masons with a huge body of literature, scientific and mathematical knowledge. Nor how come with such a HUGE head start it all ended 1,000 years ago and the ME has become a madhouse endlessly on the verge of mayhem.

Ibrahim Al-Buleihi, a current member of the Saudi Shura Council: "What I wanted to clarify is that these [achievements] are not of our own making, and those exceptional individuals were not the product of Arab culture, but rather Greek culture. They are outside our cultural mainstream and we treated them as though they were foreign elements. Therefore we don't deserve to take pride in them since we rejected them and fought their ideas" cont/...

.../cont Conversely, when Europe learned from them it benefited from a body of knowledge which was originally its own because they were an extension of Greek culture, which is the source of the whole of Western civilization." Ibrahim Al-Buleihi, a current member of the Saudi Shura Council:
