Scientists fled to non-islamic places like Kerala and gave bith to "Kerala school of mathematics" which per latest research even influenced Issac Newton.

I can tell you who influenced Newton.I have read crest of peacock and the non-european roots of mathematicis by verghees. I bet you - If you have read this book - you wouldnt be talking rubbish about the contribution of Islam in the development of modern scince. Verghees has dedicated many chapters -just on Islamic impact alone

Here is the pdf on who is indeed the main motivation behind calculus
macalester.edu/~bressoud/pub/cbn1.pdf
This reasercher has singled out Abul Hazen as the influential figure in calclus
...Abu Ali al-Hasan ibn al-Haytham (also known by the Latinized form of his name: Alhazen) was one of the great Arab mathematicians. He was born in Basra, Persia, now in southeastern Iraq. Sometime after 996, he moved to Cairo, Egypt where he became associated with the University of Al-Azhar, founded in 970. He was prolific, writing over 90 books, and is most famous for his work in astronomy and optics. His interest in mathematics ranged over algebra, geometry, and number theory. I focus on him because he is the first person I know of to have integrated a fourth-degree polynomial.

Muslims countries themselves responsible for marginalization. They are not so open minded, these countries don;t have religious freedom for non muslims. Muslim countries discriminates a lot to their own non-muslims citizens. These kind of ideology encourage fundamantlism. Poverty and terrorism are not very much linked, poverty and crime are linked. And religious terrorism a crime not comes from poverty. First these countries should have to understand that where they stand. Muslims countries and follwers need to be moderate and otherwise this polarization will increase.

Islam is the problem, it destroys every good thing. Creativity is the light of God, God is the ultimate creator but HE shares this talent of creativity with humans, look that these poor Arabs, they had the creative light of God, and Islam destroyed it as it is the prime purpose of Satan to destroy God's good work. Look at pakistan, it was destroyed by Islam while India continues to kindle in the light of God. Look at All Islamic countries, the light has been extinguished by Islam.
Before the arrival of Islam there, What is now southern Afghanistan- were the learning centers of the Indian sub-continet. People fro what is now India (both north and south) use to to and study there in there univesities. That was more than a 1000 years ago. Now the same people grow beards, some lives in caves, some sells their daughters to pay debts, some live like retards.
Amazing what islam did to them- but hey they will ow defend islam with their lifes.

National science teachers association - the authority in school text books
..Studying the history of science helps students develop a sense of science (and mathematics) as a dynamic, human enterprise, and also provides a better understanding of the role that science has played in the development of various cultures. By coming to appreciate the immense contributions of Arab-Islamic scientists and scholars, students develop a deeper understanding of the foundations of modern science..
BIRTH PLACE OF DR SALAM, JHANG, A SMALL TOWN IN PAKI PUNJAB, IS NOW KNOWN MORE FOR JEHADI GROUP LASHKAR-E-JHEGAVI (its founder was from Jhang, thus the name).
RATHER, AS PER LATEST RESERACH, SCIENTISTS, REASERACHERS FROM NORTHERN INDIA WERE SO MUCH PERSECUTED THEY FLED TO KERALA- AND DEVELOPED MATHEMATICS- KERALA MATHEMATICS, WHICH IS SAID TO HAVE INFLUENCED EVEN NEWTON THRO' MISSIONARY PORTUGESE.
After it became Islamized, its fortune started falling.
So much so, even South Africa, a country which endured savaged onslaught of racism for centuries, quickly recovered and now overtaken Egypt as leader of Africa!

I can only pity you.Under Islamic civilization Egypt was not a seperate country - but part of huge flourishing civilization with Bagdhad as the capital and Damsacus as the capital for some time. Do you know the splendour of Baghdad? here is a short history on this from Mathemcatical association of america about the house of wisdom in Bagdhad

I guess I only have a simple question for you.
Why did the science stop after Islam came? Even if I accept the splendour of pre Islamic eras, why did the science stop when Islam was followed in these countries? If science did not stop even in India that was occupied by many people, if India could produce Raman, Ramanujan, Chandrasekah, Bose (all noble prize winners) and Vishwanathan Anand(world no 1 in chess) why could Islamic world not produces anyone in the past 800 years?

ALL OF BALAORDS URLS SAY THAT THESE DISCOVERY WAS MADE BY POOR IRAQIS IN 800 AD BEFORE ISLAM CAME.
ISLAM CAME AND DESTROYED EVERYTHING. THESE PEOPLE WERE GOOD, LOOK AT WHAT ISLAM DID TO THEM. IT MADE THEM ANIMALS FROM HUMANS. IT TOOK AWAY THEIR CONCSCIENCE AND INTELLIGENCE AND MADE THEM SUB HUMAN TERRORISTS WITH NO CREATIVITY AND NO RESPECT FOR HUMAN LIFE.
ISLAM IS THE PROBLEM.
BALOAORD, TEACH THESE PEOPLE TO GIVE UP ISLAM I AM SURE THEY ARE HUMANS AND GOD GAVE THEM BRAIN THEY CAN CONTRIBUTE TO HUMANITY LIKE THE PRE ISLAMIC ERAS.

Ali Sena has given an open challenge to all muslims to prove his site wrong. many have tried and failed like Ayatollah of Iran. Zakir Naik ran away from the challenge as he can only do trickeries in front of a supportive stupid islamic crowd and cannot do a real online debate with real proofs and calm arguments.

Stupid Alisina has given 50,000 dollor challenge for Islam-laughable - Muslim countries are buying parts of NASDAQ and OMX. I myself can pay 200000 dollors - His 50,000 challenge and my foot!!!
