Actually it went on for quite some time after that. All throughout the Middle Ages, most of the Islamic world was more educated and tolerant than the christian dumbshits in Europe. A famous example would be Al-Andalus in Spain.

But to claim, Islam invented science and basing that claim on some miracles is ludicrous.
