Some of the great human achievements of the medieval period were by Muslim scholars.It seems to me though that most of these achievements were an extension of Persian culture. The golden age of the Caliphate was during that time that it was based in Baghdad and heavily influenced by Persia. Iran is probably the most intelligent of the countries in that part of the world, despite its current government. Civilization began in Mesopotamia, adjacent to Persia, not in more primitive Arabia where Islam began. Iraq is probably screwed up now thanks to centuries of being a pawn of empires. |
