How Islamic Inventors Changed the World!

[saima abdullah]

:salam2:
Good reminder of how following Islam had made the Muslims honourable. Alhamdullilah

"From coffee to cheques and the three-course meal, the Muslim world has given us many innovations that we take for granted in daily life. As a new exhibition opens, Paul Vallely nominates 20 of the most influential - and identifies the men of genius behind them"

May Allah revive this spirit in Muslim youth to reattain our lost goals........ ameen

haath pay haath rakhay muntazair e farda hooo

:salam2:Just like to remind myself and anyone interested about the book called:1001 inventions I'm not yet in the possesion of the book myself ,but I'd like to share this with you;

ISBN: 0955242606
Author: Salim T. S. al-Hassani (chief editor); Elizabeth Woodcock, Dr. Rabah Saoud (co-editors)
Publisher: Foundation for Science Technology and Civilisation (2006)
Pages: 363 Binding: Hardcover w/ Dust Jacket

Description from the publisher:

What do coffee beans, torpedoes, surgical scalpels, arches, and observatories all have in common? Were Leonardo Da Vinci’s flight ideas original? Who devised the casing for pill capsules and where did Fibonacci learn to flex his mathematical fingers?

All these answers can be found here in ‘1001 Inventions: Muslim Heritage in Our World,’ written in an accessible style for those with limited knowledge of either Islam or history. A golden age of civilization, from 600 to 1600 CE, will unfold, because medieval Muslims were trailblazers in fields as diverse as medicine and mechanics, cartography and chemistry, education and engineering, architecture and astronomy. No area was too obscure to miss the scrutiny of enquiry backed up by rigid scientific experimentation.

So get comfortable with this guidebook and prepare to begin on a voyage of discovery through a thousand years of science and technology into the lives of medieval pioneers whose ingenious inventions have helped create our world today.
