To be honest, didn’t they invent mathematics? I think other daily items as well.

For sure, but that was long before Islam came along. Islam has suppressed any creativity by Arabs since Mohammed, which allowed other cultures (Europeans, Americans, Jews) to leapfrog them in science and culture. Israeli Jews post thousands of scientific articles every year while the billion Arabs worldwide post maybe dozens. Islam kills creativity (as well as killing innocent lives).

Thought it was mostly the Ancient Greeks and Romans. Archimedes is considered one of the three greatest math people who ever lived. Especially important was the Greek innovation of putting the subject into a theoretical footing, typified by Euclid's Elements.
