[Quranic reflection]: hell is a black hole-part III

[Jehanne]

Not at all; the Quran itself is what defined the facts in modern science.

Except we never see any scientific innovations coming from Islamic countries. And the Quran is to be blamed. Islamic "scholar" Al-Ghazali in the 11th century concluded that according to Quran, mathematics is the work of the devil, and that's why Islamic countries stayed mathematically primitive since then because Muslims stick to this guy's teachings. No scientific innovations, basically no Nobel Prizes, nothing.

Muslim scholars did preserve many ancient texts; Western scholars owe them a debt on that one. Also some thoughtful commentaries on Aristotle and some early work on medicine that found its way into the Florentine renaissance.

P.S. Agriculture, too; Muslims brought cotton & rice to Spain.
