Often I hear, the claim that sayed by Non Muslim
Youtuber, Islam is retrogession factor. Whereas, in Islamic History, ever
happen Islamic Golden Age at age of Abbasid Dynasty, how Muslims in age of
Abbasid Dynasty achieve golden age and what s factor from this. Lets discuss it.
At age of Abbasid Dynasty, knowledge in Islam flow by
leaps and bounds, including astronomy, mathematics, history, literature and
other. Also Islamic Philosophy flow at age of Abbasid Dynasty. First Philosoph
in Islamic History is Al-Kindi, according Philip.K.Hitti, maybe born at Kufa,
Iraq, at 801 AD, and die at Bagdad, Irak, at 873 AD. He expert in chemistry,
music, and astronomy. He write a book about music. Other Islamic Philosoph these
include Al-Farabi and Avicena ( in Arabic Ibnu Sina). Muslims achieve golden
age because they virgiously flow knowledge at age before them, example, books
from India, Sassanid Dynasty Of Persia, and Greeks readed by Muslims Scholar at
refrences.
Caliph Of Abbasid, Al-Mansur built an observatory at Mount
Of Qasiyun, Damascus. Ibrahim Al-Fazari ( die at 777 AD) is first people who
make astrolabe ( tool for astronomy).
In history knowledge, Muslims have an big historian,
named Al-Biruni (973-1050 AD) who write a book titled Al Tafhim Lil Awail
Shinaah Al-Tanjim that explained history nations before Islam.
At Cordoba, Spain, that ruled by Islamic Dynasty Of
Umayyad ( contemporaries with Abbasid Dynasty), live an genius scholar named
Abbas Ibn Firnas. Abbas Ibn Firnas is inventors who invent first glyphs ( proto
airplane maybe)
At Cordoba also, live Islamic Genius Docter who invent
surgery, he is Al-Zahrawi, Pietro Argallata say he is elder from surgeons. He write
book At Tashrifu Lian Ajiza Anit
Talif at 100 AD, who discuss about
surgery and medicine.
According Historian Ahmet Kuru, Islamic Knowledge
Center located on big cities such as Damascus, Aleppo, Bashra, Nishapur, Ray,
Thus at East Persia, Balkh, Bukhara, Urgenc, and Merv at Central Asia. At
Bagdad, Capital Of Abbasid Dynasty live three inventors who sons from Musa Ibn
Shakir. They invented fountain, catrol
in the shape of sellfish, and lamp. In Bagdad also, Abu Bakar Ar-Razi (
854-925 AD) also find breaktrough about different beetwen pox and measles.
Lets analize, is true Islam is retrogession factor?
Apparently, it is false, the proof Muslims in Abbasid
Dynasty can achieve knowledge prestation in the level of world. What is
factor? Lets analyzer.
First, Muslims Spirit to study, they not only reads books from civilization before
them about Knowledge, example from India and Iran, but they also flow the
knowledge with their research.
Second, the power of economy.
Muslims in Age
Of Abbasid Dynasty has strong economy. According Historian Ahmet Kuru, Muslims Merchants dominate trade and Muslims
Scholar so support Islamic Products s trade, exactly, Goiten argue Muslims
Merchants in the past stronger than state aparaturs, why this? Because they
achieve many advantage from their trade.
So, I not bored say to my brothers and sisters from
Muslims, be smart Muslims, not enough only obey to Islamic Sharia such as
diligent in worship, but, we must complete it with our knowledge, because Allah
love his clerver servant. Our propeth, Propeth Muhammad Shallahu Alaihi Wasallam
