Muslim contributions are huge and stretch from the 8th century to the 19th.

Ted,
since I am always happy to learn new stuff, maybe you could mention a few of those huge Muslim contributions dated between the 13. and the 19 century?
But apparently you do know of their contributions prior to the 13th century and I did say during the period from the 8th century to the 19th century, didn't I.

Yes, of course I know and what disturbed me is your way of plainly extrapolating the Muslim period of true achievements prior to the 13. century beyond that while giving them credit for same all way up to our time in spite of the sad facts that something went wrong with and nothing was contributed by Islam after Saladin.


Between the 8th and the 19th centuries, the Muslim empire was a significant force in the world. While many of their contributions occurred between the 8th and the 13th century, their influence and contributions didn't end there. Your suggestion that "nothing" happened after Saladin is a bit of an exaggeration IMO.
