Science And Islam Part1 WS PDTV XviD-COUNCiL

Posted on 06.01.2009 at 11:28 in TV Shows by Vantec

COUNCiL released an interesting documentary presented by BBC. This is the first out of three documentaries of  The Language of Science. A nice 1cd rip by COUNCiL.

Physicist Jim Al-Khalili travels through Syria, Iran, Tunisia and Spain to tell the story of the great leap in scientific knowledge that took place in the Islamic world between the 8th and 14th centuries.

Its legacy is tangible, with terms like algebra, algorithm and alkali all being Arabic in origin and at the very heart of modern science – there would be no modern mathematics or physics without algebra, no computers without algorithms and no chemistry without alkalis.

For Baghdad-born Al-Khalili this is also a personal journey and on his travels he uncovers a diverse and outward-looking culture, fascinated by learning and obsessed with science. From the great mathematician Al-Khwarizmi, who did much to establish the mathematical tradition we now know as algebra, to Ibn Sina, a pioneer of early medicine whose Canon of Medicine was still in use as recently as the 19th century, he pieces together a remarkable story of the often-overlooked achievements of the early medieval Islamic scientists.

    @99 then how come the earliest known Koran dates back from the 10th century then (some 300 years after Muhammad's death)?

    @ 102 pings the site you post is a propaganda against Islam no more .it's necessary to deform the image of Muslims and their creed to make support for extortion their rights ,land ,wealth killing their women and children like Europe and America always do France on Algeria ,Israel on Palestine and Lebanon , America on Iraq Serb on Bosnia .
    it's so easy to call every creed what ever on earth the creed of no peace Christianity,Judaism , capitalism , communism , atheism and it's so easy to make a lot of proofs on this two it just a game of propaganda .

    #29 is completely right. religion is a fatal virus. It is a machine invented by man and now is completely out of control. Look at what it inhibits? Worst of all everyone uses it and hides behind it to commit atrocious acts mostly for power and business purposes, always leading to the extreme. It is unfortunate that it is the building block of civility but I think of it as population control. Some use it for good, but it all depends on the preacher. That being said, do you believe in the words of your preacher or your God? I don't think the words of God come from a book.

    Koran was not invented by people. It was sent to prophet Muhammad S.A.W. in words by God. It was spread by Muhammad to his friends and relatives in words. Then, after he passed away, the words were collected by the leader at that time and documented as a Koran and it took years so people can read it like they did nowadays.

    And when we talk about Islam itself, it has nothing to do with terrorism. People did what they did because they're forced to do it because they live in a war country. If you're white and born as American but you're a Muslim, you're not going to blow yourself in public because you live in a country where there are no hundreds of children and women died everyday because of the mortar and bombs.

    Islam teaches people how to live your life. After that, it depends on you either you want to follow it or not. That's why people are given the so-called brain. Islam told us not to drink alcohol. Why? To prevent the bad thing (accident, rape, etc). Islam told us not to do sex with people who is not your husband/wife. Why? To prevent the bad thing (AIDS, HIV, divorce, abandoned children etc, you name it). One day of searching around the internet was not going to give you everything about Islam (especially when you are just reading, not understanding). Learn it first, then we can talk.

    I appreciate that rlslog is actually putting things like this up thank you very much. if we all get along with each other and except our differences and just try to get the answers ourselves by reading and researching we will not be puppeted by the main stream media who have no other religion but money and no other god but money we will prosper and become better and evolved humans. by pointing fingers at each other all we do is create hatred. instead we could try to fight the ignorance by educating ourselves. just imagine if all Muslims were terrorist there would be 1.8 billion of them that is nearly 1/6th of the world population that would mean every sixth person is a terrorist now common i am sure you are not that naive. what is happening in Israel is terrorism (killing children common). you could blame hammas all you want but the fact is that you as a civilized nation should come up with a diffrent strategy to get the so called terrorist and not by blowing schools up or hospitals and place of worship because by doing that you are making your self eqaul the so called terrorist that you are fighting. and this was said to me by an Israeli himself and his girl friend (both Israeli born) whom i met in a rally in New York to stop the genocide in GAZA. So for me to go say every Israeli is a child killer would be completely wrong weather i had met the Israeli couple or not. Generalizing some peoples action over the masses of people just because they had a few things in common is the biggest mistake a human could make. that is what those terrorist do when they hate American based on President Bush's actions.

    any ways i hope one day we could get along with each other. and the first step to get along with each other is by educating ourselves. Educated people don't promote hatred towards anyone so a person spreading hate should stop hating and get educated.

    And as far as asking questions i don't know who you met but let me tell you if you have any questions you could either ask me or go to this site http://www.whyislam.org not only could you call these people and ask them question you could even get free books to learn and see what Islam is about.

    Once again keep it up rlslog

    Too bad almost none of this "documentary" is true. The Arab world contributed a good bit of science and tech nology to the world, but that doesnt mean Islam did. Islam wasnt even around for most of this stuff they say that it invented. And some of the other stuff that it says Islam invented was actually done by other cultures.

    Way to go with trying to rewrite history…

    I think it was appalling of rlslog staff to demand that religion be protected from discussion , because it is a 'sensitive' subject. The followers of islam have been responsible for most of the worst atrocities worldwide in the last decade, and if that doesn't demand criticism i dont know what does.

    Shame on rlslog staff for pandering to fear and attempting to stifle free speech and free thinking.

    funny how islamic people believe that the earth is FLAT yet they are the pioneers of science…

    i don't even need to know science to guess that the earth can't possibly be flat…

    lets face it, islam is only good for jihad and bomb making

    Saying that Islam made a lot of scientific progress, is the same as saying that the Jews invented the theory of relativity. Completely absurd.

    The only link between Islam and science was the Falsafa in the 9th century. Muslims inspired by Greek rationalism, founded universities where much ancient knowledge was translated. After that Islam just used their fruits of labor and made very little progress, if any.
    Just like christianity, the Islamic world also has a history of book-burning and persecution, which continues even today.

    Its really strange that people contradict this documentary when it comes from a scholar who gives lectures in known Universities and is at BBC

    Those saying that muslims believe earth is flat, all I can say is that your IQ can't be positive.

    @118 – How can you claim "islam have been responsible for most of the worst atrocities worldwide in the last decade"

    Where is your proof? The Media? This is not evidence of anything, people cause atrocities, it stupid to blame a belief/religion for atrocities. Have you watched the news lately? Do you not see what the Israelies are doing in Gaza, to Muslims (followers of Islam)? And then you claim this? Did you not see all the innocents that died in Afghanistan and Iraq when the west went in with no reason? and then still you make this claim.

    And i know what you will say, look at all the suicide bombings, but these people do not claim to do this in the name of Islam, they claim to be Muslim and do this because of whatever reasons they give, not becuase Islam has told them too. Islam the word itself comes from the word "Peace" and you try to say that Islam caused atrocities. All you people should stop bashing a religion, if you want to watch the documentary then watch it. If you have nothing nice to say about Islam then keep your comments to yourselves. Gain a proper education about Islam before you start to bash it, not an education you gained from reading biased internet based material, but from real practicing Muslims. Learn what Islam is, then express your opinions.

    And if you want to argue still, just look through History, no religion has been perfect, look at Crusades, the Christians tore through not just the middle east, but through Europe in violence. When they entered Jeruselam they didn't take it over through peaceful means, they killed, raped and murdered. They killed innocents. Still you bash Islam.

    I go back to what the Zionist Jews are doing in Gaza today, more than 600 people have died and majority of them are civilians, they have bombed schools and killed children, babies, families. Still you people claim that Islam is a violent religion, a religion that is full of hatred and worse. You should all think before you express ridiculous opinions about a RELIGION.

    Just a note, i don't hate Christians or anyone else for what they have, i hate the people who committed those terrible crimes. So don't go bashing me for mentioning any other country or religion.

    wow…100 comments and not a single RS link!!!

    you guys should all get a life and realize that one can't argue about religion – everyone has got their opinion – and that's good – that's how it should be! let people think what they want to think…
    watch this documentary or don't…but stop leaving endless comments about religion

    have a good day
