The thinker Leopold Weiss or “Muhammad Asad” underlined the role of Cordova in paving the way for the age of renaissance, saying: “We would not be exaggerating if we said: The modern scientific age in which we live did not start in European cities, but in Islamic centers; in Damascus, Baghdad, Cairo, and Cordova.” The cities of Arabian Spain, as Irving noted, “became the resort of Christian artisans, to instruct themselves in the useful arts. The universities of Toledo, Cordoba, Seville, and Granada, were sought by the pale student from other lands to acquaint himself with the sciences of the Arabs, and the treasured lore of antiquity.”

Gustave Le Bon was a French Orientalist and researcher in sociology and psychology. Among his famous books is La Civilization des Arabes. he said: History has not seen conquerors more merciful than the Arabs .. And he said : "Within some centuries the Arabs changed Spain totally as per academic and economic advancement and made her the leader of entire Europe. This change was not only academic and economic but moral as well. They taught the Christians a valuable human character or at least tried to teach them i.e. to tolerate rival religions. They were so polite towards the conquered nations that they allowed the bishops and fathers of churches to hold their congregations.” “The Arabs had no sooner completed their conquest of Spain than they began to carry out the message of civilization in it." - Gustave Le Bon While comparing the Islamic rule in Andalusia(Spain) with the Roman Dark Ages that lasted for 300 yrs, French historian Gustave Le Bon substantiate his finding with such beautiful remarks about the then Arabs nd Muslim rulers of Rome in his book "Civilization of Arabs" “Within a century from the birth of Islam, the Arab empire expanded from Sind River to Spain."(P121 "Within less than a century, they were able to cultivate dead land, build up ruined cities, construct magnificent buildings and establish trade connections with other nations." - Gustave Le Bon "Then, they (the Arabs) devoted themselves to the study of sciences and arts, translation of Greek and Latin books into Arabic and foundation of universities that remained the only cultural refuge in Europe for a long time.” - Gustave Le Bon

George Sarton: In his book, The Civilization of the Arabs, he says: The Arabs previously led the world in two long phases, the first remained for two thousand years before Greece, and the second lived for four centuries during the Middle Ages, and no one can prevent these peoples from leading the world again in the near or far)

@rezalavasani3169 So what civilization are you talking about? About Darius the coward who was fleeing in battle? Or your barb,arian empire that did not create civilization or cultural influence? P.S..Your darius did not occupy 44% as you claimed, he dest,royed small parts of the Middle East and had no cultural influence like the Arabs and Greeks..The Persians were a “military empire” like the Mongols. They occ,upied, dest,royed and adopted the culture of other peoples and did not create a golden age or a golden culture.. If Persian nationalists lied to you and claimed that you have civilization and culture, so this is not my problem Read below👇

@rezalavasani3169 The Arab\islamic Golden Age originated in the land of the Arabs.. Universities were built by the Arabs.. Civilized cities such as Damascus, Medina, Baghdad, Cairo, Sicily, Cordoba and Seville were built by the Arabs.. The fathers of sciences were all Arabs such as Al-Kindi, Ibn Al-Nafis, Al-Masoudi, Al-Zahrawi, etc... Even non-Arab Muslim scholars (such as the Turks, Berbers and Iberians) were studying in universities Arabic, and their books are in Arabic, and their culture was Arabic Al-andalus is the greatest Islamic civilization ever built by the Arabs.. The golden age ended with the fall of the Arabs.. The Arabs are the cradle of Islamic civilization.. The founding fathers of Islamic civilization were Arabs (Muhammad, Abu Bakr, Omar, Othman and Ali) and not (Zardasht, Cyrus, Khosrau and Lol)

@rezalavasani3169 These are the founders of the golden age Arab caliphs and Arab universities and Arabic language And the fathers of Arab sciences And the scientific cities built by the Arabs idk what's 'Persian' about it !

@rezalavasani3169 Tell me, where were your ancestors when our father Abraham was establishing the greatest culture and building the first holy house? Where are your ancestors when the Semites built the oldest civilizations and invented the first alphabet? What did the Persians give to mankind? Where is your culture?? Where is your cultural influence?? Where are their scholars?? Where did you write them?? Where are their universities??? Where is their golden age?? nothing . Be proud of your barbarian empire (in fact, there is nothing to be proud of) .. and stop claiming our history, our scholars and our golden age Read below👇

@rezalavasani3169 what !!! Persian thie,ves are still continuing to |ie and stea| ! You are not shy! All scholars are Arabs, their culture is Arabic, their language is Arabic, nothing to do with Persians..the fathers of science were Arab, and all universities are Arab..they are not Persians and they did not speak Persian, |iar! Where is your Magian civilization and culture???? Nothing.. stop claiming our civilization and stealing our scientists

@rezalavasani3169 Most of the scholars are from the Arabia from Medina, Baghdad, Basra,etc. All universities were built by Arabs Scholars from the lands inhabited by the Persians are few.most of them are from the lands of Arabs or Turkic Even those from Persia are of Arab origin, as Ansari & Rumi All the scholars claimed by the Persian are from Uzbekistan “Turks”, and their language and culture is Arabic 🤔 and they are trying to give the impression that these few "Uzbek Turks" scholars who stole them are the only scholars of the golden age.

@rezalavasani3169 Dr. Naguib Mikhail says: “The Persians destroyed the pillars of civilizations in the East, shaking the foundations of cultural life in the countries they ruled, cutting the threads of the original civilizations, ripping them apart, and destroying artistic development everywhere. Then you claim that they have civilization? Loooool..if they have a civilization where is their cultural heritage..why don't they have a cultural influence like the Arabs and the Greeks!!
5
@rezalavasani3169 Why do the Ma,jus steal the golden age of the Arabs?? Most of the scholars were Arabs, not Persians. Universities are Arab, not Persian. The language is Arabic, not Persian. The caliphate is Arab, not Persian. What is the Persians about this!
5
@rezalavasani3169 In the period of the Arab/Islamic golden age, most of Persians were still non Muslims. The process of Islamization was mostly encouraged by Turkic empires. In Arab/Islamic golden age, Nearly all the famous poets and mathematicians/polymaths in “Islam” were ARAB.. even non-Arabs were Arabs in their culture, civilization and language So, most scientists were Arabs, and even non-Arab scientists had an Arab culture and Arabic language.. The Persians have nothing to do with Arab civilization and culture .. ok AGAIN ! Where is the golden age of the Majus??

@rezalavasani3169 Tell me, are these universities Persian?? Al-Qarawiyyin University al zaytona University Al Azhar university house of wisdom Mustansiriya University

@rezalavasani3169 Spanish study conducted to find out the scholars of Andalusia (the most important Islamic civilization)and it turns out (ten thousand Arab scholars in Andalusia alone) Do the Persians “in all their ancient and modern history” have such a huge number of scholars? These scholars are in "Al-andalus" only, not to mention the great Arab scholars throughout the Arab / Islamic empire Al-andalus is the greatest civilization not only Islamic but also in human history as described by the French historian and doctor in his book “The Civilization of the Arabs.” .. did the Persians create a civilization in their history like Al-andalus!
5
@rezalavasani3169 The Persians were an empire seizing the resources of the peoples. However, they did not have knowledge and an alphabet, while the Arabs were kingdoms, but they had scholars, books and an alphabet.. Arabs are like the Greeks (kingdoms with knowledge) and you cannot name one Persian in your empire ! Arabs before Islam,were had poetry,literature, architecture and alphabet .. even the doctor of Khosrau was Arab.. and they were Architects, emperors,generals in the Roman Empire. While the Persians before Islam had no knowledge, books, philosophy or alphabet !!! they couldn't even create their own writing system So what civilization are you talking about? Read below👇

@muhammadbayyun8938 Yes, it was ruled by the Arabs (the Lakhmids and the Hatras) and all their capitals were not in Persian lands, but Semitic lands.. Since the Persian invasion of Babylon, Mesopotamia did not flourish until after the Arabs regained the land of the Semites.

@rezalavasani3169 Our poets influenced European literature.. """""Read carefully"""" The Swiss scholar Sismondi published, that the form and content in the modern European poetry came from Arabic poetry in Andalus. Islamic poetry and literature owes to Arab literary culture Arabs are the cradle of Islamic civilization Not to mention the influence of Arabic literature on European literature, through Andalusian, Sicilian-Norman, troubadour and Provençal poets. Arthur John Arbury, a British orientalist specializing in mysticism and Persian literature, asserts that the first forms of Persian poetry that emerged were the poem and lyric poetry taken from Arabic literature Where is the influence of your empire? Where is your civilization your empire? Read below👇

@rezalavasani3169 Iran was not a culturally fertile land at all..! It was devoid of culture and science.. The Persians were like the Mongols, they were militarily strong, but they were culturally weak and they adopted the culture of others.. On the other hand, the Arabs and Greeks were small kingdoms, but they had a culture and an alphabet and they had a clear influence on peoples. So what civilization are you talking about? Read below👇 That's a nationalist myth from the 1950’s. In reality, Persians never had a literary culture before the Arab Conquests. That's why almost every Persian classic is from the post-Islamic period, not pre-Islamic. [Reza Zia-Ebrahimi –❛The Emergence of Iranian Nationalism (2016)] So what civilization are you talking about? Read below👇 The Arab culture from Indonesia to Chile.. while who cares about the culture of the Persians or the culture of Zoroaster!! Where is the influence of your empire? Where is your civilization your empire?

John Walter Literally, the Persians are very few. Most of the scholars are Arabs, and most of them are from Andalusia, Cairo and Baghdad. Where are the uncles of the Persians and their contributions in the time of the Magian Empire? scientists In Persia (eastern Iran and some areas of Afghanistan) were less civilized and the scientists in it (not famous) and were so few.. plus to, ll these scholars who claim to be Persians are from Uzbekistan (Turks) + All scholars, whether Arab or non-Arab, are part of our cultural sphere.

John Walter I want the Majus to be proud of a scientist named Zardasht bin Khosrau bin Magus, with the culture of the Majian and from Majian empire, not a scientist named Muhammad, Omar or Ali, from Arab culture, and he is part of the Arab civilization !🙂

Sigrid Hunke In her book "Allah's sun over the Occident" the influence exerted by the Arabs on the West was the first step in freeing Europe from Christianity We cannot ignore the fact that for over 750 years in the last millennium Arabs were the bearers of the torch of culture (first chancellor Oxford Robert Grosseteste ):The newly translated Arabic and Greek treatises had an immediate effect on the University of Oxford.
4
Speaking about Andalusia in general as a bridge between Islamic civilization and the West, Sigrid Hunke says: “The Pyrénées Mountains were not to prevent these contacts. Therefore, the Arab, Andalusian civilization found its way to the West.”

De Lacy O'Leary in "Arabic Thought in History" ,, "The Greek material received by the Arabs was not simply passed on by them to others who came after. It has a very real life and development in its Arabic surroundings. In astronomy and mathematics, the work of the Greek and Indian scientists was coordinated and there a very real advance was made. The Arabs not only extended what they had received from the Greeks but checked and corrected older records."

John William Draper in the "Intellectual Development of Europe",,, "I have to deplore the systematic manner in which the literature of Europe has continued to put out of sight our obligations to the Muhammadans. Surely they cannot be much longer hidden. Injustice founded on religious rancour and national conceit cannot be perpetuated forever. The Arab has left his intellectual impress on Europe. He has indelibly written it on the heavens as any one may see who reads the names of the stars on a common celestial globe."

Roger Bacon ,, "It was under their successors at Oxford School (that is, successors to the Muslims of Spain) that Roger Bacon learned Arabic and Arabic Sciences. Neither Roger Bacon nor later namesake has any title to be credited with having introduced the experimental method. Roger Bacon was no more than one of apostles of Muslim Science and Method to Christian Europe; and he never wearied of declaring that knowledge of Arabic and Arabic Sciences was for his Discussion as to who was the originator of the experimental method....are part of the colossal misinterpretation of the origins of European civilization. The experimental method of Arabs was by Bacon's time widespread and eagerly cultivated throughout Europe

@rezalavasani3169 O Persians, stop stea|ing our civilization (Arab/Islamic Golden Age) All scholars are Arab, all universities are Arab, and all civilized cities are built by Arabs.. It is the civilization of Muhammad, not Zoroaster It is the civilization of the Qur'an, not the Avesta Why did the Persians not have scientists or knowledge before Islam? Why your barb,aric Persian culture did not create a golden age? You are literally suffering from an identity crisis! You brag about scientists who are not from your culture, language, era, or race

@rezalavasani3169 The Persians were not people of civilization, they were people of war, and they were not spreaders of science, culture and arts like the Semites, but they were spreaders of ruin and destruction. as an official language of the country Persia no one knew before 500 BC.. they were nomadic groups in India.. and they had no architecture at all.. like Petra, one of the seven wonders of the world Count De Gobineau says: (The Persians did not invent anything new in the arts. Whether it was in the era of the Achaemenids, the Sassanids, or after the advent of Islam, the Persians did not have a style or art of their own, rather they borrowed from others) Dr. Ali Shariati : they "Persians" had no one before Islam apart from few "sages" no one cares about, and even the Academy of Gondishapur (which might have been overhyped) was founded by non-Persians (Greeks) and sustained by a non-Persian spirit. So what civilization are you talking about? Read below👇

John Walter The Arabs won Nobel prizes, they have the best universities, and invented the greatest technological invention" iPhone" Steve Jobs he is Arab, while the Persians couldn't make thire shoes. The best universities in the Middle East today are Arabic .. the Arabs won the Nobel .. no one Persian won the scientific or literary Nobel Prize !

John Walter How can the Persians create a golden age for an empire that is not Persian, for a language that is not Persian, and for a culture that is not Persian when they were not able to create a golden age for their empire!!

John Walter All universities were built by the Arabs, such as Al-Qarawiyyin, house of wisdom, Al-Zaytouna, Al-Azhar, Al-Mustansiriya, etc. the civilized cities built by the Arabs, such as Medina, Damascus, Baghdad, Seville, Cordoba, Sicily ,Toledo...etc. and Arab civilization in Al-andalus.

Robert Briffault in the "Making of Humanity" "It was under the influence of the Arabs and Arab revival of culture and not in the 15th century, that a real renaissance took place. Spain, not Italy, was the cradle of the rebirth of Europe. After steadily sinking lower and lower into barbarism, it had reached the darkest depths of ignorance and degradation when cities of the Saracenic world, Baghdad, Cairo, Cordova, and Toledo, were growing centers of civilization and intellectual activity .. It was there that the new life arose which was to grow into new phase of human evolution. From the time when the influence of their culture made itself felt, began the stirring of new life.

Le Bon says: “No sooner had the Arabs completed the conquest of Spain than they started to carry out the message of civilization there. In less than a century, they managed to give life to dead lands, reconstruct ruined cities, set up magnificent buildings, and strengthen close trade relations with other nations. They then started to dedicate themselves to studying sciences and arts and to translate Greek and Latin books and set up universities which continued to be a place for culture in Europe for a long time

@rezalavasani3169 O Persian thi,ef, are you not ashamed of lying.. you say that our Arab scholars are mare and claim that they are all mare!! All scientists from China to Andalusia, whether they are Arabs or non-Arabs (Turks, Berbers and Jews), are part of our cultural sphere, their culture and language was Arabic, and all their books were in Arabic, and they studied in Arab universities. They were born, lived and died in the Arab empire. Persian steal Arab history because they did not have a golden history, their history was bloody

@rezalavasani3169 Do you compare, O Persian, the civilization of the Arabs, their influence, and their ancient history with yours? You are ju,st an insect to Arabs! The Arabs are Abraham, Ismael, the Qaydians, Babylon, Edessa, the Nabataeans and the Dilmun. Their influence is great on the peoples culturally, linguistically and intellectually. The Umayyad Empire ruled most of the world, while your Berberic Persian Empire did not reach 1% of the Umayyad area ! Read below👇

@NuclearBomConsumer Tajik Tajik Tajik.. Why is this name repeated as a name for the Persians? Why don't you say Persians and instead mention the ethnic name of the Arabs in Central Asia because the Arabs (Tajiks) were the ones who created civilization in that region and that is why you want to claim the contributions of the Arabs (Tajiks)? Al-Bukhari is Turk/Uzbek, not Persian. He was educated in the city and his teachers are Arabs, and he belongs to the Islamic civilization. This Arab/Islamic civilization is the civilization of Muhammad and Omar, not Zoroastrian and Khusraw

@NuclearBomConsumer Tajik is a name intended for the Arabs in Central Asia, and the Asian peoples used to call the Arabs Tajik, and this is well known The Tajiks in early Islamic times were the Arab nobles who emigrated in Central Asia, not the Persians This is why the Persians call this name to reflect the contributions of the Arabs in Central Asia (the land of the Turks).

@NuclearBomConsumer Today's Tajiks are a nationality of the State of Tajikistan But the name Tajik in the early Islamic centuries were the noble Arabs who created a great civilization in that region, and then it became a name for Muslims or those who have an Islamic culture.
