Yeah. They supposedly invented Arabic numbers and algebra too. A lot of good it did em, huh? I see those cited too. "Arabic" numerals are actually from India and algebra goes back to the Babylonians. There is very little that has been accomplished by the Arabs over the last 1500 years despite the constant claims to the contrary.

muslims invented the first prophylactics made of goat gut, but the Chinese perfected them by taking them out of the goat.
