They did some interesting stuff but it is not nearly as golden as they make it out to be, besides if you have to go back 1.000 years for examples of your co-believers that did some good things for civilization, you are not exactly making a very good case for that religion.

Pretty much everything Muslims take credit for culturally was produced by some other culturally superior group they enslaved for a while.

Nestorian Christians should literally be like:

HOL UP! So what you be sayin' is WE WAZ INVENTING ALGEBRA an'

Go to a "Islamic art" exhibit at a big museum paid for by CAIR or Saudi terror fags or whatever, read the little labels closely. It's fucking always Jews or Chaldeans or Byzantines or someone else's stuff they're claiming as their own.

Islam literally bans art, it's the most shit tier religion in history.

Muslims first came up with the concept of 'the pursuit of knowledge as worship', it's the argument used by scientists of the age that reveling the wonders of nature through science cannot be against god, as the natural world is his doing and he wants up to understand it.
This was adopted by Cristian scientists in the renaissance.

No.
In fact the only time Islam was ever at peace was before the dawn of the crusades in Jerusalem where they were able to be slightly tolerant of other religions. Despite this, there were still blatant discrimination against anyone whom wasn't a Muslim as they were typically cast out, beaten, taxed heavily, or killed.
That's what I know off the top of my head.
That and the Ottoman Empire.
But no. There was never a time of economic and self sustaining life style based off of peace for Muslims. It was always about gathering up a shit ton of sand niggers and stealing shit from other people. That's where their economic success came from and that's where it still comes from to this day.
Muslims have always had a reputation for being vile savages who justify their actions by claiming that it is God's will that allows them to prey on the innocent and weak. They're a cancer.

It's greatly exaggerated. Even the greatest Islamic philosphers, Averroes and Avicenna, were merely commentators on Aristotle, and the latter ran afoul of Islamic orthodoxy for his philosophical speculations (the Muslim rulers of Spain also expelled the Jewish philosopher Moses Maimonides). In any case the Arabs only "preserved" Classical works that had already been translated in Syriac by Christian monks. They did have a handful of decent astronomers and alchemists, but that's it.

Ask yourself: how great can a civilization really be if it needs to reach back 1000 years for its achievements, however dubious or limited those are?

>Did Islam ever have a "golden age"?

No. The 'Golden Age' in Islam covers the early centuries of the cult after it had conquered advanced regions but before it had totally ruined them. Middle East used to be one of (maybe the) great centres of human civilization and this was unchanged by various empires coming and going, religions coming and going, until Islam came along and permanently fucked it.

Christianity actually nurtured scientific studies through the 1600's. Scientists needed money and the Church was the one that had it. They gave them grants and allowances for their studies.

The term "golden age" can mean a lot of things and tends to vary from historian to historian, though almost every historian will agree that islamic had a golden age where military strength, food production and economic success led to strong forward leaps in science, mathematics and art. This was undoubtedly cause directly by islam which served as a unifying force within the arab world at that time.

The Byzantines were conquered not destroyed, half their Empire left and joined the Islamic Empire because the Byzantines were so culturally different and interfered in the free market and trade.

They were already destroyed when they lost Rome to the Barbarians. After that it was just a decline and attempt to reconquer their original capital.

All those cathedrals took hundreds of years to build where as in the Islamic world at that time, they would be built in years.

Light armor and curved blades were used since ancient Egypt and even rome.

nobody intelligent used heavy meme armor, for example the Spartans who had no armor at all, only a helmet, sword and sheild.

The Europeans(the germanic barbarians) didn't know anything about this and continue using their traditional weapons instead of adopted a superior one.

you're not really examining the argument very well.

It's not the ancient islamic world VS the western world. They both developed in very different ways.

For one, Medieval Europe was almost entirely devoid of bureaucracy. This is an important distinction to make because, in the absence of what records the church did keep, it forced a feudal oath based system. Self-sufficient economic practices were king during this time in European history, with the exception of Spain and Italy.

The Islamic world was much more focused on economics given their proximity to the silk road and what portions of it they controlled. Being able to speak multiple languages was a critical component to the success of any Arab man in that era of history. This led to prioritizing education within society (whereas, in europe, education wasn't nearly as much of a necessity.)

A real historian could make a solid argument that Europes time in the stagnation of the "dark ages" poised it for a more meaningful renaissance. The centuries of a virtually nonexistent merchant class within central Europe helped install the guild system, which would ultimately challenge the feudal system of governance. This is important because it helped catalyze the protestant reformation and jumpstarted the industrial revolution as a whole, which is responsible for the cultural dominance that we enjoy today.

You could not use viking steel to build skyscrapers, even the Islamic iron and steel had carbon fiber in it, although they didn't know about carbon nanotubes, they knew certain carbon compounds in Iron would make it stronger

Crusader swords even broke when clashing with an Islamic made one, and after winning battles they would sell the swords to lords and nobels who would use them since they were superior

Arabs were the hidden gem of society that baffled the West. back in the day Arabs and the Chinese were the strongest forces on Earth, but ultimately that was their downfall. the strong flex their muscles while the weak are forced to train their minds.

Arabs were busy on multiple fronts for their crusades, eventually concentrating in Africa at some point. they enabled a lot of innovations and fancy shit, but the killing of Christians and converting of niggers was their top priority so they pushed on. whites(including white spaniards) had their shit pushed in, leading to a breakthrough of innovations in the West that became on par with the seemingly perfect Arab society. Westerners banded under their religion as a weak faction that got second wind by uniting on common religion instead of uniting as an entire hivemind force. that enabled the path of knowledge brought about by multiple cultures that had a shared enemy of Islam, though they still fought among themselves as well. Arabs indulged in their total unification rather than allow separate cultures because there was no need. they were the strongest until technology and a better grasp of economy became the true strength of humanity.

basically Islam had potential just like anyone else. with power often comes great resolve, and that itself is a weakness that can be exploited by those born with nothing, except for niggers because niggers are just plain stupid AND have nothing

The Timurids and the Mughals were indeed world powers, had they expanded west instead of east they would have easily took over the Ottomans, Arabia, Europe etc...

If Islam promoted knowledge they'd had a golden age, which they did

There was an Islamic Golden Age circa 700-1000 in which the material economy, and intellectual and artistic atmosphere of the Muslim realms and their immediate neighbors (Eastern Roman Empire, Italian trading cities) due to strong Caliphate leadership and a general "peace," insofar as there could be peace in the region.

Then there were several centuries of decline and a subsequent "dark age" as the Mongols and other warlike Turkic peoples razed the foundations of civilization in the Middle East (much as modern Muslims are doing to the West now).

Then in the 15th century, the Ottoman Empire (which was really just Islamified Greeks and South Slavs) gained prominence as it conquered and superceded the Eastern Roman Empire. The Ottoman Empire represented a second "Islamic Golden Age" for another several centuries during its domination of eastern trade and subjugation of Eastern Europe.

This "Golden Age" ended with the rising eminence of Austria-Hungary, Poland-Lithuania, and the Russian Empire, which slowly ate away (with their Muslim allies, e.g. Khazars, Persians, Tatars) the Ottoman encroachments into Europe until its final collapse in 1920.

A third "Islamic Golden Age" existed with the preponderance of decolonization, as new nations following WWI and WWII sought to westernize and modernize, such as Turkey, Egypt, Iran, et al. This "golden age" saw great advances in almost every field except political liberty, as virtually all of the leaders and their successors, with the possible exception of Ataturk, were military dictators. But they were all on the right track.

Then the Islamic Revolution of 1979 happened. The words "Islam" and "Golden Age" will never again be used in the same sentence to refer to current events unless used by a global caliphate.

The Romans went to war with Arabia after several cities in the Arabian area defected to the Islamic caliphate and the Romans declared war to try and put them in their place, in the process all of their Arabian subjects ended up defecting to the Islamic Caliphate and they were pushed into Anatolia.

Jizya is what they called taxed, everyone payed it, even Muslims, but for Muslims it was called Zakat. Poor people were put on welfare, but barley anyone was poor due to the get lax economic laws and that trade was not taxed thus encouraging merchant guilds.

There weren't any Arabs outside of the Arabian peninsula at the time, Assyrian Christians were the majority in much of the levant, and I'm not a Christian but I'm sure they would rather live in a Christian country over a Muslim one.

No Muhammad never even went to war with the Persians and never wanted to and forbade hostilities with Persia who he saw as culturally similar.

Also he never employed raiding tactics with Rome, and avoided fighting them since they were stronger, the only reason he managed to win was to win over the Roman provinces that were discontented with Roman rule.

You clearly are a history illiterate retard.

>there weren't any arabs outside the arabian peninsula
Northern Arabia was part of the Roman Empire, lol retard. The Christians sided with the Muslims because they were culturally similar and didn't like the Romans who were Orthodox and they were something else.

Here's Coptic Monk John of Nikiu on why the Muslims beat the Romans. Not through battles but through honor and morals.

>On the twentieth of Maskaram, Theodore and all his troops and officers set out and proceeded to the island of Cyprus, and abandoned the city of Alexandria. And thereupon 'Amr the chief of the Moslem made his entry without effort into the city of Alexandria. And the inhabitants received him with respect; for they were in great tribulation and affliction. And Abba Benjamin, the patriarch of the Egyptians, returned to the city of Alexandria in the thirteenth year after his flight from the Romans, and he went to the Churches, and inspected all of them. And every one said: 'This expulsion (of the Romans) and victory of the Moslem is due to the wickedness of the emperor Heraclius and his persecution of the Orthodox through the patriarch Cyrus. This was the cause of the ruin of the Romans and the subjugation of Egypt by the Moslem. And 'Amr became stronger every day in every field of his activity. And he exacted the taxes which had been determined upon, but he took none of the property of the Churches, and he committed no act of spoliation or plunder, and he preserved them throughout all his days.

The Mongols depopulated Iran by an estimated 70-90%. They put all major cities to the sword and the rest fled West as refugees. Iran has been an economic backwater since then, it was briefly wealthy during the Safavid Period thanks to the Silk Road but when the Europeans discovered sea routes to the East surpassing the Silk Road the trade route collapsed and so did the Safavid State. The Afghans briefly conquered Iran sending it into turmoil once again and then Nader Shah had a series of wars against the Afghans, Mughals, Ottomans and Russians to recreate the Iranian State. The Qajar dynasty ruled in the 1800's and was in absolute shambles during this period experiencing a few major famines.

Iran's population only recovered to pre-Mongol Invasion levels in around the 1950's.

Saying that Zoroastrianism declined due to the reforms of Mazdak and Mani is like saying Catholicism ended Christianity during the great schism, or protestantism ended Christianity for going against the HRE. The Sassanid's purged Christian influence, the Sassanid's was the first place European pagans would flee to. Not to mention they were closer to the Indians more than ever which resulted in many advances and resulted in games such as chess and backgammon. Jeez, you dumb refugee why didn't your boat capsize.

That's part of the reason, the Sassanid-Parthian confederacy was discussing dissolution of the Empire even before the Arabs crossed the Zagros Mountains into the core provinces of Iran. The issue had been that they fought roughly 300 years against East Rome and were exhausted and the Sassanid Dynasty pushed relations to the brink with demanding taxes and levies to fight these wars.

The other issue is that the Sassanid Empire devolved into a religious tyranny. They were a hyper-persian hyper-Zoroastrian dynasty that was purging the Empire of certain 'foreign' influences. They hated the Hellenes and were purging their influence out of the Empire (there were Greek speaking communities across the Empire even as the Muslims invaded). They were persecuting Christians (Christianity was spreading very fast during the later Sassanid era) and they were persecuting Zoroastrian sects that weren't their own. The Zoroastrian faith was going through a steep collapse even before the muslims conquered Persia. It still took about 500 years for Persia to become a majority muslim nation. The first Caliphate that ruled persia was very unpopular but then there was the Abbasid Revolution which originated within Persia and was a lot more popular.

I said he encouraged war with them, not he went to war you dumb Arab. Zoroastrians and parsis are in no way culturally similar to Arabs lmao. Arabs wouldn't even let Zoroastrians own dogs because Muhammad didn't like them instead they encouraged pussies, like Muhammad.

"Lataftahanna al-Qustantiniyya wa lanima al-amiru amiruha wa lanima al-jayshu dhalika al-jaysh."

"Verily you shall conquer Constantinople. What a wonderful leader will her leader be, and what a wonderful army will that army be!"

Narrated from Bishr al-Khathami or al-Ghanawi by: Ahmad, al-Musnad 14:331 #18859 [sahih chain according to Hamza al-Zayn] al-Hakim, al-Mustadrak 4:421-422 [sahih according to him and al-Dhahabi concurred] al-Tabarani, al-Mujam al-Kabir 2:38 #1216 [sahih chain according to al-Haythami 6:218-219] al-Bukhari, al-Tarikh al-Kabir 2:81 and al-Saghir 1:306 Ibn Abd al-Barr, al-Istiab 8:170 [hasan chain according to him] al-Suyuti, al-Jami` al-Saghir [sahih according to him]

It says in the Hadith's he wanted war with Rome, why should I believe you over the Hadith? You clearly know nothing of Islamic history.

You were just arguing the timurids were Iranian but now by your logic they're Turks? Okay fine by me, I was just trying to prove Iran has been a piece of shit after it became Muslim.

No he didn't encourage war with the Persians, he forbade it as he wanted to ally with them. After he died. Abu Bakr went to war with Persia after Persia infringed on their territory.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muslim_conquest_of_Persia#Revolt_of_the_Arab_client_states_.28602.29

That's a Hadith where during the Battle of Trench(a battle where a larger army was going to seige them), Muhammad tries to inspire his army by saying one say the Muslims will be in charge of Syria, Iraq, Egypt, the Mediterranean, and one day Constantinople too. So this inspired them to dig a trench faster and work harder to survive the siege.

He simply took Jeruselum and the Arab provinces of Rome, which was all he could take since Rome was stronger than them, so wanting a war with Rome would be stupid.

The Romans also controlled territory all the way to the Euphrates river.

Nowhere in that article does it say Persia attacked first, in fact it says the opposite, that Muslims invaded first "Arab Muslims first attacked the Sassanid territory in 633, when general Khalid ibn Walid invaded Mesopotamia".

>Since the 1st century BC, the border between the Roman (later Byzantine) and Parthian (later Sassanid) empires had been the Euphrates River. The border was constantly contested. Most battles, and thus most fortifications, were concentrated in the hilly regions of the north, as the vast Arabian or Syrian Desert (Roman Arabia) separated the rival empires in the south. The only dangers expected from the south were occasional raids by nomadic Arab tribesmen. Both empires therefore allied themselves with small, semi-independent Arab principalities, which served as buffer states and protected Byzantium and Persia from Bedouin attacks. The Byzantine clients were the Ghassanids; the Persian clients were the Lakhmids. The Ghassanids and Lakhmids feuded constantly—which kept them occupied, but that did not greatly affect the Byzantines or the Persians. In the 6th and 7th centuries, various factors destroyed the balance of power that had held for so many centuries.

The Arabs they had as puppets revolted and joined(allied, but to them it was considered joining) the Islamic Caliphate, then which they went to war with the Arabs.

>After the Ridda Wars, a tribal chief of north eastern Arabia, Al-Muthanna ibn Haritha, raided the Persian towns in Mesopotamia (what is now Iraq).

No, sine 0 is 0. Sine by itself is just a function. You just said the British couldn't become African by colonizing Africa, so how did Tamerlane the Turk become "Iranian/turkic". He never called himself Iranian he was a Turk through and through not even slightly Iranian.

>what is mixed race
Tamerlane descended from Genghis Khan, and other Turkic people as well as native Iranians.

The Abbasid Revolution was to overthrow a royal family which got corrupt due to their new wealth and power. The Arabs never tried to enforce anything on them, Iranian Muslims became a different culture and were autonomous.

>Arab Muslims conquests have been variously seen in Iran: by some as a blessing, the advent of the true faith, the end of the age of ignorance and heathenism; by others as a humiliating national defeat, the conquest and subjugation of the country by foreign invaders. Both perceptions are of course valid, depending on one's angle of vision… Iran was indeed Islamized, but it was not Arabized. Persians remained Persians. And after an interval of silence, Iran reemerged as a separate, different and distinctive element within Islam, eventually adding a new element even to Islam itself. Culturally, politically, and most remarkable of all even religiously, the Iranian contribution to this new Islamic civilization is of immense importance. The work of Iranians can be seen in every field of cultural endeavor, including Arabic poetry, to which poets of Iranian origin composing their poems in Arabic made a very significant contribution. In a sense, Iranian Islam is a second advent of Islam itself, a new Islam sometimes referred to as Islam-i Ajam. It was this Persian Islam, rather than the original Arab Islam, that was brought to new areas and new peoples: to the Turks, first in Central Asia and then in the Middle East in the country which came to be called Turkey, and of course to India. The Ottoman Turks brought a form of Iranian civilization to the walls of Vienna

I can't tell if you're just trolling with the sine thing anymore. Have you ever taken math passed high school?

>Caliph Umar was assassinated in November 644 by a Persian slave named Piruz Nahavandi. The assassination is often seen by various historians as a Persian conspiracy against Umar.[35] Hormuzan is said to have masterminded this plot. Caliph Uthman ibn Affan (644–656) succeeded Umar. During his reign almost the whole of the former Sassanid empire's territory rebelled from time to time until 651, until the last Sassanid emperor was assassinated near Merv ending the Sassanid dynasty and Persian resistance to the Muslims. Caliph Uthman therefore had to send several military expeditions to crush the rebellions and recapture Persia and their vassal states. The Empire expanded beyond the borders of the Sassanid Empire in Transoxiana, Baluchistan and the Caucasus. The main rebellion was in the Persian provinces of Armenia, Azerbaijan, Fars, Sistan (in 649), Khorasan (651), and Makran (650).[48]

Nah, bruh, the Persians just hated the caliphate and definitely didn't contribute to it aside from a few rebellions.

You've only shown me pages saying the Sassanid's have attacked their own client state and the client state of Byzantium.

lol what a load of shit, the first delhi sultanate was established in 1200 AD that is after Tarain in 1191-92, which led to the establishment of the Delhi Sultanate which is from 1203 onwards so 12th-13th century onwards to the arrival of the mughals in mid 16th century(1526). Mughals collapsed in the 1700s due to the Marathas and they were eventually overcome by the british who established themselves by around the late 1700s.

So 13th to 18th century, that is 5 centuries, islam has been active for 1500 years.

WE WAS KANGS

Islam didn’t really invent anything, they took credit for and/or inherited/assimilated the inventions/discoveries that the Dhimmi made under Arab regimes.

It all came from Christians(Copts, Nestorians), Zoroastrians, Jews, Pagans, Hindu and Greek Culture. People are mislead to think that Arabs/Muslims invented things and advanced knowledge because people were given Arabic names and their works published in Arabic which was virtually the official language of the land.

Examples:
Arab architecture was built/adapted by Dhimmi, Persian and Byzantine origins, Calipph Abd el-Malik hired Byzantine architects and craftsmen to build the dome of the rock, which is why it resembles the church of the holy sepulcher.

Avicenna, Omar Khayyam, al-Biruni, and Razi were Persian(Zoroastrian). Al-Khwarizmi credited as the father of algebra was a Persian, Al-Uqlidisi who is credited to introducing fractions was a Syrian. Bakht-Ishu and ibnIshaq who expanded medical knowledge were Nestorian Christians. Masha'allah ibn Athari a famous astronomer was a Jew.

Arabic numerals were Hindu origin. The Thabit ibn Qurra, who made many contributions to geometry was a pagan.

The knowledge and advances in medicine were made by Nestorian Christians at Nisibus, Nisibus being a hub of higher education offered by Nestorians. Hunayn ibn Ishaq al-'Ibadi (Johannitius) was a Nestorian Christian who primarily collected and translated Greek manuscripts into Arabic

The list can go on and on. But don’t misconstrue that there were no Muslim scholars that existed.
