Zero was around a long time before islam. Probably 4000 - 5000 years ago. islam didn’t come about to around the 600’s A.D.

So we’re back to “zero” for islamic contributions to making the world better.

In fact, they burn all the books they find. They like keeping their people ignorant. Over 1/4 of its followers are illiterate — like Muhammad.

I think that was Hindus, but the Arabs did give us the other numbers. But I don’t know if they were Muslims at that time. Mohammed is late, c. 700 isn’t he?
