The contributiosn have every connection to the world we live in.You are probably mistaken of my intention of refering to these articles.I dont claim exclusivity.I know for a fact that our own India contributed heavily in mathematics-especially the survya siddhanta.
Aryabhatta is the first one to show sine is a function of angle,and the Muslim abul wafa is the first one to to tabluate the values for tangent.
But today the west is show casing it in the popular science as if it invented all these things.The truth is India as well as Muslims have made a great contribution to humanity.
I am for alliance of civilizations not for the clash.It is the idea of people who thrive in hate
