The Middle Ages (3rd part)
Most of today’s civilization was founded by Muslim inventors, and in fact, today’s civilization and progress is the developed form of the discoveries and inventions of the civilization of that time, without a doubt, today’s science and civilization owes to Islamic civilization, and it was certainly this Islamic civilization that paved the way for other civilizations. It opened up and changed the nature and quality of life in every corner of the world and introduced it to humanity.
Now we will tell a corner of the “Middle Ages” civilization, for whom was this age really dark? Exactly for Western people and infidels, it was a dark and black age; But it has been a golden period for Muslims.
I want to mention a corner of the civilization of that era, which was black from the perspective of the ideology of democracy and the golden century from the perspective of the ideology of Islam, which is the inventions and discoveries of the same era; When Islam was in power, nothing else was applied except Sharia, we were at the peak of refinement and civilization, from the moment the Islamic Ummah saw its civilization and progress in Western civilization, they were humiliated and this humiliation continues until now, and even glorified and They forgot their greatness.
We were a nation that spoke first in all areas of life and were in the first place, for example, in “mathematics”, the expert and discoverer of this science, Badi al-Zaman “Abul Az bin Ismail bin Jazri (1136-1206)”, a mathematician, industrialist and mechanical engineer He was one of the Kurdish scholars of the 6th and 7th centuries of Hijri. His most famous book is “Al-Jama’i Bin Al-‘Ilam and Al-Awal Al-Naf’i Fi Sanaa’ Al-Hayl”. This book has been translated into most languages of the world. Jezri wrote this book in 602 Hijri.
In this book, he describes the working method and construction of 50 self-made and used devices; These devices include water and candle clocks, automatic dishes and fountains, water supply devices from streams and wells, self-playing instruments and other devices including: code lock and cloned lock and geometric tools.
The crown of Aljazri’s fame has been various watches, especially his elephant-like watch, which has been a universal and so-called modern watch. The candle clock, according to “Donald Hill”, Al-Jazari designed the most complicated candle clocks known to date; He describes one of the candle clocks as follows: “A candle whose burning rate was known was located in the resin part, the wick passes through the hole, the wax is collected and it can be separated in a circle, a clock, until it burns, not to disturb, the bottom of the candle is in a shallow dish, and a ring at the side of it is connected by rollers to the balance weight, as the candle burns, the weight is driven upwards at a constant speed, which mechanism itself from the plate at the bottom. It moves the candle.” No other known candle clock has been so advanced.
The wax watch included a pointer to show the time and was the first to use a hand blade mounting mechanism, a mechanism still used in modern times.
If we look at human life, we will find that without knowing time, life will sink into a deep disorder, and it was the Islamic system that nurtured such innovators in its womb.
Another scientist named “Ibn Haytham” whose work led to the invention of “Camera” (camera), Ibn Haytham, whose full name is “Abu Ali Al-Hassan Bin Al-Hassan Bin Al-Haytham”, in the modern world where all cameras and their types such as: television, mobile , cinema, projector, etc., are all thanks to the Muslim scientist and inventor Ibn Al-Haytham, who have written hundreds of books, both Muslim and non-Muslim, on the achievements and services of this great man of history in the field of civilization.
Also, “Abul Qasim Abbas bin Farnas bin Verdas Takrani” (194-274 AH) who lived in Andalusia and Cordoba in the village of “Taqran” during the caliphate of “Hakam bin Hisham Umayyad”.
The one whose invention excited the sky; The first person who invented and flew the airplane and the world of humanity uses it today has brought a lot of ease to humanity.
But today, for most people in the world, it is pretended that the Wright brothers were the inventors of the plane, while we had an era adorned with “Islamic civilization”; But since Islam is not ruling today, it is not possible to reflect the true face of Islam and Islamic civilization to the world and express the services and civilization of Islam precisely.
Even in the Middle Ages, Muslims had a civilization like today’s civilization that is used by humanity in the modern world due to the rule of divine law on the planet. For example, in medicine, suturing internal wounds was one of the inventions of the father of surgery, “Abul Qasim Khalaf bin Abbas Zahrawai”, who used the intestine of the pishek and sometimes from other animals. Dozens of books have been written about “Abulqasem Zahrawi”. From the book “Al-Tasrif Khalaf bin Abbas al-Zahrawi”, the Islamic Ummah should know that there is no age called black, those who say black are speaking from their own perspective, not from the lens of Islam.
Also in other parts, in this era, there have been unparalleled inventions and discoveries by Muslim scientists, such as: “Maryam Elstrolobi”, the greatest astronomer, who divided the universe and the stars into small segments, so that people can keep track of the times. Know and use it in your life.
The same inventions that divided the universe and the stars into small segments, the result of this invention brought dozens of amazing conveniences to mankind that today the world of humanity benefits from. Such as: mobile phones, compasses and satellites, about this, in an era when all scientists, specialists, inventors and explorers, dozens of books have been written by infidels and Muslims about their inventions and discoveries, the youth of the nation should follow these scientists.
