Abstract

The paper primarily deals with Muslim’s contribution in Science. As Islam declared education as a religious obligation and Islam also proved itself as a torch bearer of knowledge of the world after its advent in Arabia and extended its boundaries from Arabia to the edge of Asia and Africa. The Muslim rulers were the great patronage of modern sciences i.e., Physics, Mathematics, Chemistry, Astrology and Medicine. Among the different Muslim Scientists Prince Khalid, Imam Jafer Sadiq, Jabir Bin Hayayn, Abu Ali Seena, Abul Qaim Zaharavi, Abu Rehan Al-Baironi, Muhammad Bin Yahaya Idreesi, Muhammad Bin Zikriya Al-Razi, Ibn-ul-Haitha, Abu Nusa AL-Khuarzami, Ibn-e-Nafees and many other were very important. The Muslim Scientists were the followers of practical knowledge, and they always propagate the application of knowledge as practical rather than oral or theoretical. This paper highlights the role and contribution of Muslim Scientists in the field of Science while it also explores that Muslims were the founder of scientific knowledge in the world.
