The caliphate acquired much of their collected knowledge through conquest and appropriation - huge tracts of it "western knowledge". Islam, itself..otoh... has never been a bastion of anything but ignorance.
NO, Islam was once a bastion of erudite learning right up until cranks like Atlas got hold of it. Then it all fell apart.
The fundies dragged it kicking and screaming back into the dark ages.
