The progress of science in that period is due to the encouragement of Islam to learn science and its teaching by the shia Imams Some of the infallible shia Imams had the opportunity to be educated. Others could not do so due to exile, imprisonment, war , social problem ,and government pressure, while all of them had divine knowledge. Imam seadegh, imam bagher (They are twelve.

Arguably, it came from automatic adherence to religious authorities................................. "*revelation* replaced *investigation*" .... "Read the Koran and listen to the Prophet" replaced something like "Figure it out and write about it and write about it and write about it" ---- Most Jews have given up this approach long ago. They embrace science. They ignore dogma. They embrace a sort of pseudo-racial tradition. They reject old MYTH, even if in their own religious writings.

@@SwobyJyou are so wrong. Revelation did not replace investigation it actually incourages it. It has been revealed to the Prophet of Islam that we should investigate things before believing it. Also in science you have the scientific theories which is a theory and could be false and you have science which could be proven and is of no doubt. The science that has been proven goes hand in hand with the Quran. The Quran does not defy it and many things where proven to be scientifically true in modern times while it was already there written in the Quran 1400 years ago.

First Tyson effectively tells his audience that Islam brings about this golden era of scientific inquiry and investigation, then he says "revelation replaced investigation". Weird non-sequeter... Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) told muslims to "seek knowledge even unto China" (i.e. everywhere, even in the pagan 'badlands'). The Qur'an constantly reminds the muslims to think about the world around them, to use their own intelligence: "do they not see?", "do they not think?". The impetus for inquiry has always been from Revelation itself. The point about what happened to muslims later on is very valid but does not follow from the fundaments of Revelation - on the contrary. Tyson presents one man, Al-Ghazali, as somehow the tipping point of the muslim world into unenlightenment - as Tyson sees it, since the *natural* sciences to him presumably are more important than any other kind. Anyone who has spent a modicum of time reading about the history of Islamic thought knows that Al-Ghazali was one of the most enlightened and genial of scholars and human beings. The truth is that Al-Ghazali considered mathematics to be an important branch of knowledge and a "fard kifayah", i.e. a subject that *must* be studied/ mastered by a sufficient section of the muslims otherwise the whole community falls into sin. What he actually criticised was the study of mathematics that didn't have a practical application. Please stop misinforming the public with unresearched, reductive presentations. It's so.. unscientific!

Al Ghazali was anti philosophy, never have I heard or read he was anti-mathematics. However, there was a time of where philosophy started to take liberty with the religion of Islam, and he battled that. The decline of the "Islamic Golden Age" was due to Mongol invasion... It is ironic how if the Middle East was left alone, throughout time, it would've been the the pioneer in almost every aspect of advancements.

I don’t understand the issue of not thinking that there is some cosmic purpose from some supernatural deities or musical forces. Nihilism sounds scary. But as far as I’m concerned, it’s just an act of taking ownership over defining and arriving at purpose for one’s life rather than believing that there is some cosmic purpose that one is not meant to fully understand too much, but that one is meant to revealer. I don’t understand how/why one is supposed to take something as super serious even though it’s beyond one’s understanding by definition. To me that is a much more scary notion than nihilism. Even if I don’t have some spooky label for it.

If Tyson's point had been to put down Bush, then yes, this would destroy his whole point. But since his actual point was to build up mediaeval Arabic-language science, then his point is just fine.

Algebra was around long before the 800s. What the Arabs did was to take all of the various (geometric) methods for solving quadratic equations and combined them to give a systematic method of solving such equations. Europeans then learned this from the Arabs which is why Algebra has an Arabic name. And although there was one Arabic mathematician, as well as one ancient Greek mathematician, who came up a symbolic method of expressing equalities, neither of their works was very influential and it wouldn't be until much later that algebra took on its modern symbolic form.

Muslim achievements: Engineering: The Banū Mūsā brothers, in their Book of Ingenious Devices, describe an automatic flute player which may have been the first programmable machine. The flute sounds were produced through hot steam and the user could adjust the device to various patterns so that they could get various sounds from it. Astronomy: In about 964 AD, the Persian astronomer Abd al-Rahman al-Sufi, writing in his Book of Fixed Stars, described a "nebulous spot" in the Andromeda constellation, the first definitive reference to what we now know is the Andromeda Galaxy, the nearest spiral galaxy to our galaxy.[40] Nasir al-Din al-Tusi invented a geometrical technique called a Tusi-couple, which generates linear motion from the sum of two circular motions to replace Ptolemy's problematic equant The Tusi couple was later employed in Ibn al-Shatir's geocentric model and Nicolaus Copernicus' heliocentric Copernican model although it is not known who the intermediary is or if Copernicus rediscovered the technique independently. Anatomy: In the cardiovascular system, Ibn al-Nafis in his Commentary on Anatomy in Avicenna's Canon was the first to contradict the contention of the Galen School that blood could pass between the ventricles in the heart through the cardiac inter-ventricular septum that separates them, saying that there is no passage between the ventricles at this point. Instead, he correctly argued that all the blood that reached the left ventricle did so after passing through the lung. He also stated that there must be small communications, or pores, between the pulmonary artery and pulmonary vein, a prediction that preceded the discovery of the pulmonary capillaries of Marcello Malpighi by 400 years. The Commentary was rediscovered in the twentieth century in the Prussian State Library in Berlin; whether its view of the pulmonary circulation influenced scientists such as Michael Servetus is unclear. In the nervous system, Rhazes stated that nerves had motor or sensory functions, describing 7 cranial and 31 spinal cord nerves. He assigned a numerical order to the cranial nerves from the optic to the hypoglossal nerves. He classified the spinal nerves into 8 cervical, 12 thoracic, 5 lumbar, 3 sacral, and 3 coccygeal nerves. He used this to link clinical signs of injury to the corresponding location of lesions in the nervous system. Evolution: Modern commentators have likened medieval accounts of the "struggle for existence" in the animal kingdom to the framework of the theory of evolution. Thus, in his survey of the history of the ideas which led to the theory of natural selection, Conway Zirkle noted that al-Jahiz was one of those who discussed a "struggle for existence", in his Kitab al-Hayawan (Book of Animals), written in the 9th century. In the 13th century, Nasir al-Din al-Tusi believed that humans were derived from advanced animals, saying, "Such humans [probably anthropoid apes][citation needed] live in the Western Sudan and other distant corners of the world. They are close to animals by their habits, deeds and behavior." In 1377, Ibn Khaldun in his Muqaddimah stated, "“The animal kingdom was developed, its species multiplied, and in the gradual process of Creation, it ended in man & arising from the world of the monkeys.” Architecture: The Great Mosque of Kairouan (in Tunisia), the ancestor of all the mosques in the western Islamic world, is one of the best preserved and most significant examples of early great mosques. Founded in 670, it dates in its present form largely from the 9th century. The Great Mosque of Kairouan is constituted of a three-tiered square minaret, a large courtyard surrounded by colonnaded porticos, and a huge hypostyle prayer hall covered on its axis by two cupolas. The Great Mosque of Samarra in Iraq was completed in 847. It combined the hypostyle architecture of rows of columns supporting a flat base, above which a huge spiralling minaret was constructed. The beginning of construction of the Great Mosque at Cordoba in 785 marked the beginning of Islamic architecture in Spain and Northern Africa. The mosque is noted for its striking interior arches. Moorish architecture reached its peak with the construction of the Alhambra, the magnificent palace/fortress of Granada, with its open and breezy interior spaces adorned in red, blue, and gold. The walls are decorated with stylized foliage motifs, Arabic inscriptions, and arabesque design work, with walls covered in geometrically patterned glazed tiles. Many traces of Fatimid architecture exist in Cairo today, the most defining examples include the Al Azhar University and the Al Hakim mosque. Geometry: Islamic art makes use of geometric patterns and symmetries in many of its art forms, notably in girih tilings. These are formed using a set of five tile shapes, namely a regular decagon, an elongated hexagon, a bow tie, a rhombus, and a regular pentagon. All the sides of these tiles have the same length; and all their angles are multiples of 36° (π/5 radians), offering fivefold and tenfold symmetries. The tiles are decorated with strapwork lines (girih), generally more visible than the tile boundaries. In 2007, the physicists Peter Lu and Paul Steinhardt argued that girih from the 15th century resembled quasicrystalline Penrose tilings.] Elaborate geometric zellige tilework is a distinctive element in Moroccan architecture. Muqarnas vaults are three-dimensional but were designed in two dimensions with drawings of geometrical cells. Trigonometry: Ibn Muʿādh al-Jayyānī is one of several Islamic mathematicians to whom the law of sines is attributed; he wrote his The Book of Unknown Arcs of a Sphere in the 11th century. This formula relates the lengths of the sides of any triangle, rather than only right triangles, to the sines of its angles. According to the law, {\displaystyle {\frac {\sin A}{a}}\,=\,{\frac {\sin B}{b}}\,=\,{\frac {\sin C}{c}}.} \frac{\sin A}{a} \,=\, \frac{\sin B}{b} \,=\, \frac{\sin C}{c}. where a, b, and c are the lengths of the sides of a triangle, and A, B, and C are the opposite angles (see figure). Calculus: Alhazen discovered the sum formula for the fourth power, using a method that could be generally used to determine the sum for any integral power. He used this to find the volume of a paraboloid. He could find the integral formula for any polynomial without having developed a general formula. Scientific method: Ibn Al-Haytham (Alhazen) was a significant figure in the history of scientific method, particularly in his approach to experimentation, and has been described as the "world's first true scientist". Avicenna made rules for testing the effectiveness of drugs, including that the effect produced by the experimental drug should be seen constantly or after many repetitions, to be counted. The physician Rhazes was an early proponent of experimental medicine and recommended using control for clinical research. He said: "If you want to study the effect of bloodletting on a condition, divide the patients into two groups, perform bloodletting only on one group, watch both, and compare the results." Jim Al-Khalili gives the example of the classification of materials as a sign of new ways of thinking. While the classification of the material world by the ancient Indians and Greeks into Air, Earth, Fire and Water was more philosophical, medieval Islamic scientists used practical, experimental observation to classify materials. Rhazes, for example, classified minerals into six groups based on their observed chemical properties: Spirits, which were flammable, Material Bodies, which were shiny and malleable, Salts, which could dissolve in water, Vitriols, Stones,and Boraxes. Algebra: Muḥammad ibn Mūsā al-Khwārizmī played a significant role in the development of algebra, algorithms, and Hindu-Arabic numerals.

Some of his comments like how many Nobel prizes have Muslims attained is too simplistic an argument without going into the context. It really does remind me of not so long ago (and still today in private discussions) how White people used to say exactly the same thing about Black Africans. It was their skin colour and 'lack of intellect' (not as 'evolved') that was used as an argument to their 'pity' condition. Only now he's using religion as an argument. If this speech was given by a White man there would definitely be more controversy as such rhetoric is synonymous with the far right. Only he sounds educated and being Black can make one less critical of clearly prejudicial statements. There is some truth in his claims to the stagnation of the general Islamic world but his arguments are way too simplistic and definitely misrepresented even for one not as 'enlightened' as he. I'm sure his views have probably changed since then.

I think he's a bit of an idiot who is full of himself. He contradicts his own conclusion. He talks about Islam accomplishments in science first. Well to be islamic is to believe in Allah/God. SO at the height of islamic accomplishment was clearly a belief in God. Then he says islam fell and he mentions Jews who win every nobel prize. Well, to be a jew is to believe in whom? God. So at the height of Jewish accomplishment in sciences and nobel Prizes is the belief in God. God did not stop the muslims or the Jews from scientific achievement in the speaker's own example. Yet he comes to the conclusion that belief in God stops scientific achivement even after giving all examples of scientific achievement and naming the group (Muslims and Jews) by their belief in God. He would make a better argument if he named a bunch of atheists who accomplished something but I guess he could not find them. Instead he names muslims and jews and concludes that belief in God does not allow scientific achievement. His argument contradicts itself yet he speaks like he has the bull by the horns. He may be a good scientist but his argumentative skills are lacking as he defeated himself with his contradictions. He's a bit of an idiot outside of his field which clearly is not theology.

First of all, I'm not religious even in the least bit. But does Neil ever slam other religions other than Christianity? Does he go after Islam, or for that matter, the Islamic extremists like he does Christians. I find it unfortunate that because there a some loud-mouthed, shove it down your throat, right-wing Christians, that he puts all Christians in one bucket - so to speak. If someone wants to believe in a God, and it helps them feel better about themselves and their life, then more power to them. I'd just like to see Neil slam other religions, instead of singling out just the Christian faith. I do very much enjoy listening to him talk; I love learning new things about the universe. I wish he was around when I was in high school.

This Islamic golden age came to an end not because of Al Ghazali but because of the Mongol invasions of Baghdad in 1258. Baghdad was the centre of the Islamic golden age and many of the books the Muslim and other scholars wrote were held in the house of Wisdom. These books were then burned, ripped and thrown into the Tigris river when the Mongols invaded and sacked Baghdad in 1258, killing a large portion of the citizens of Baghdad. The river was said to have turned black from all the ink of these books. Thus we lost all this knowledge and God knows where we would be today if we still had these books. The loss of this knowledge ended the Islamic Golden Age. Some people have even described the loss of the house of Wisdom as one of the greatest losses in human history.

Neil DeGrasse Tyson is a respected astrophysicist and an engaging speaker, especially when he discusses cosmology. However, some of the information he presents is historically and scientifically flawed, particularly when it comes to the Islamic Golden Age. Contrary to Tyson's claim that Islamic intellectual superiority lasted for only 300 years, the truth is that it spanned for approximately 1400 years. Islam, as a religion and civilization, differs from others in that it does not have a fixed country or capital. Its center of power shifted with the rise and fall of various Islamic empires. The main goal of Islam is to unite all Muslims under one caliphate, worshipping the one true God without any geographical boundaries. A closer look at history reveals the presence of numerous powerful Islamic empires, including the Umayyads, Abbasids, Mamluks, Seljuks, and Ayyubids, each with their own capitals and territories. The last of these empires, the Ottoman Empire (1299-1924), was one of the mightiest and longest-lasting dynasties in world history. This Islamic superpower ruled vast regions of the Middle East, Eastern Europe, and North Africa for more than 600 years. It is important to note that the Nobel Prize, which Tyson uses as a measure of Islamic intellectual achievements, was only established in 1900. This was during the final 20 years of the 1400-year-long Islamic history, making it an unfair and misleading comparison. In conclusion, the Islamic civilization's intellectual prowess extended far beyond the 300 years mentioned by Neil DeGrasse Tyson. Over the course of 1400 years, Islam produced countless scholars, scientists, and philosophers who made significant contributions to human knowledge. Using the Nobel Prize as a yardstick for Islamic achievements not only overlooks the vast history of Islamic civilization but also perpetuates a distorted understanding of its true legacy

Unfortunately just like any manmade thing it came to its end. Islam is kept artificially alive by its believers thinking that the glory of that time will comeback again.. or it's the end of the world. Or their messiah will come and make them rise again... or ... or .. They became sad ghosts of their past who can't keep up with the world anymore. The modern Westernized world couldn't completely erase these superstitions but if China and Russia take control, they gonna force everyone to give on their santa clause in the sky.

You claim that either God is Either not all powerful or not all good , imagine living in gods mercy and goodness your entire life and he kept giving you signs to come back to him yet you keep disbelieving and causing harm on earth so God Destroys that nation to protect the Other inhabitants of their corruption, likewise if the whole world came together with all their knowledge they wouldn't be able to create a single Fly so how can you deny? Miracle after miracle yet you claim all of this came from nothing

+Moh'd Saidely there is no hate in that comment I answered your question. You asked why is Islam still increasing I said because women tend to have more children. Yemen for example is 99.99% Muslim and the average woman start having children at 15-16 so by the time they have 9-10 children who will following the religion whereas in Northern Europe like Finland Sweden etc women tend to have one or two children and those children may choose not to be religious. I live in Jamaica for example my parents have 3 children 2 are religious and I am not. May I ask how many children your parents have

Imam Al Ghazali was not anti-mathematics, he condemned the abuse of intellectual discipline. “This (mathematics) is a praiseworthy discipline; but if somebody will exceed the bounds in it (i.e. use it for corruption and mischief) they should be prevented from studying it.” Also, I don’t blame Dr Tyson, because this is a common happening, but Muslims are not Islam. Separate the faith from the people. Islam didn’t “collapse”, science and innovation in the Muslim world did.

The real reason behind the end of Islamic golden age was due to Mongol Empire expansion. It is well recorded in history that they destroyed most of Baghdad and burned all libraries and books at that time

There were muliple reasons. Muslims lost to mongols due to internal cobflict as well. The Islamic Caliph of that time was pretty weak. So, muslims collapsed and never recovered to this day.

@@kabz3354 It was more complicated than that. Decades prior to the Mongol Invasion, Baghdad was one of the most significant capitals of the Islamic world--militarily, politically, and economically. However, when the major dynasties collapsed, the city lost its political relevance. When the Mongols arrived, the city was more similar to Venice. An economic trading center, but with very little to no military protection, and outdated methods of defense. There wasn't a predictable trend in the "decline". The game simply had changed, and different groups were taking charge like the Ottomans.

This guy does not know what he is saying, Al-Ghazali was saying mathematics could be used for corruption in the future, and in islam, spreading corruption is a very very bad sin. And he should have some respect for Al-Ghazali, he was one of the best scholars of Islam. The reason why the golden age declined was because of the mongol invasion, they were arsonists, they burned everything.
