We know Americans invented cars, airplanes, bicycles, and so on and discovered uses for electricity and so on. What is one great Muslim invention?

I was going to try and type or cut and paste some information for you here but, the site was too extensive. I have however provided the link. http://www.ummah.org.uk/science/default.html

LOL!!! Other than claiming to have invented and discovered everything, there is no specific invention the Muslims can claim. The Islamic countries show pretty well the lack of Muslim inventions, they pretty much import all cars, computers, food, medicine and the rest.

# 163: Let me help you EclipseVI, Muslims invented the stone age, tornados, hurricanes, floods, famine, stupidity, suffering, pain, depression, excuses, homosexuality, lesbinism, beastality, hatred, envy, and a damn good example of why some choose athieism. THe only relationship between God and Islam is that it's existance desecrates the world that he created.

Probably one of the most important inventions of all times was developed by Islamic MAthematical Scholars. This one invention is the foundation upon which rest all the science and technology we have today.

That invention is the place value system of counting and the concept of of "0" to stand in for a non-existent number. It may seem trivial today but it was very profound when the Islamic Mathematical Scholars first developed it.
