Arabian architecture is/was lovely. There's an online tour of the Al Hambra. Their mosaic art was also lovely as were their irrigated gardens and fountains. Granada, before Spain took it over, was very advanced in medicine. I read they were even doing brain surgery in the 1200's and doing it successfuly. Arab culture was much more advanced 500 years ago than it is now but their laws were just as brutal.

Arabian architecture is/was lovely. Maybe so. But you have to admit it hasn't exactly caught on throughout the rest of the world.
