I was amused by the fellow who said "nothing comes to mind," because if it weren't for Arabian mathematicians, we wouldn't have the concept of zero.
The history of the west would be much poorer were it not for the Arabs who preserved Greek texts through the Medieval period.

Diverse group - great music, food and interesting history. Arabians from Saudi Arabia? Not very interesting.

A. Their coffee ! They were the first to know grow & drink coffee !
B. their ability to bargain. They do this best since all the markets are street vendor style and one has to know a great bargain.
C. their music: they use an extremely meditative flute named the shakuhachi.

Sorry, nothing comes to mind. At one time their society was very advanced and made strides in various disciplines, now it doesn't seem that way.
But in all fairness, I don't know many, except for my sister in law who is persian and a wonderful person.
Late breaking thought:
Some mid-eastern cuisine is quite nice!

Did you know that Arabs are Semites ?
Many people who speak,read & write Arabic
are NOT Arabs, so please avoid confusion &
specify which countries are involved.

Saudia Arabia: no street crimes, hardly any crime, very disciplined motoring, great hospitality to millions at the time of breaking fast in the month of Ramzan, cleanliness, polite police, quick justice, good hospitals, efficient government.

Damn.... can't think of a single thing!!! seriously!
On a later thought, I guess the Arab women have nice hair since they always keep it protected. lol.
For the guy who answered after me -> FYI, Zero was conceptualised by the Indians!!! And again, there seriously isn't anything that is interesting with the Arabs, really!
