balaord , may i ask u a simple question ? Do u consider urself to be a muslim or an Indian first ? And as for the so called so called Islamic contribution please rephrase it as Arabic contribution . And Did u know that Arabs were mostly traders and during that times they had a strong relationship with "Hindse" now India . And because of their strong connection they were able to take alot of advancements made by Indians and present it to europe . yes it's true that they helped europe but all those advancements were not their own but taken from either India/China . The biggest example i can give is the so called arabic numerals which was developed in India and adopted by arabs as it was easier for'em to calculate when they were trading using 0-9 .
