THE GOLDEN AGE OF ISLAM- What it was and why it matters!The Golden Age of Islam lasted 500 years, between the 8th and 13th centuries, and laid the foundations for the European Renaissance. Yet most Muslims are not aware of what this means, the magnitude of this achievement, or how it affects their daily lives.Muslim names being categorically latinsed to disconnect us from our legacy played a significant role. We Muslims are cornered and are easily called 'Terrorists', and we have no academic response to them showing what we have contributed to this world. I would argue that the world would be 600 years behind if it were not for the Muslim Caliphate’s sponsored Golden Age of Islam.From Calculating the circumference of the Earth with up to 99% accuracy to deriving the exact number of days in a year within 2 minutes of the actual value, we set gold standards in every field.From making the first 'eyeglasses' to making the groundbreaking discovery of 'The Law of Refraction of the light', we are categorically discredited. Even though these laws are taught to every child in school without a shred of credit to Muslims who first discovered them!It is about time we knew about it. With that in mind, I have written this book, stating hardcore facts backed by reasoning and derived explanations of the magnitude of these achievements.This book has 19 chapters, each uncovering massive achievements in various fields. It addresses several accomplishments in astronomy, pharmacology, physics, mathematics, geography, art, trigonometry, and more.We influenced giants like Nicolai Copernicus, Sir Isaac Newton and many more, and the book highlights this with appropriate examples.After reading the book, you will realise our ancestral achievements and hold your head higher!
