education, art, literature and ultimately, the way people interacted.
4. INTELECTUAL
People from all around the world were coming across the empire and
the need for more knowledge took many scholars to translate a variety
of works from other languages. Without the need to leave their homes,
people were coming across distinct ways of life, which meant that they
could question their own customs and traditions, and challenge them.
5. ECONOMICAL

merging with each other. Trade grew through the caliphate and
beyond. The interactions with different communities could only
amount to the knowledge of the Muslim people and therefore,
improve their economy.

Some of the people in the government were non-Muslims. This meant
that those in the society that didn’t follow Islam could get a fairer
representation.
