Just in the field of mathematics there were a number of notable achievements:A huge contribution was the adoption of a number system from India, which included the numbers 1-9 and the concept of 0 as a number. It turns out that the 'Arabic Numerals' did not originate in Arabia! They get credit for them because they recognized the power of this concept, expanded the use of them, and shared the concept with other parts of the world.
- These are just some of the marvelous inventions of the 12th-century Muslim inventor Ismail al-Jazari, who laid the groundwork for modern engineering, While some of his lavish and colorful creations were made as novelty, al-Jazari also made practical machines that helped normal people, including water-drawing devices that were used by farmers for centuries.
- The first major Muslim work of astronomy was Zij al-Sindhind by Persian mathematician al-Khwarizmi in 830. The work contains tables for the movements of the Sun, the Moon and the five planets known at the time. The work is significant as it introduced Ptolemaic concepts into Islamic sciences.’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’
