How did the Muslims create such a cosmopolitan society in Spain which sparked the Renaissance ?

Question

Muslims, Jews and Scientists from Europe created a cosmopolitan society of peace and mutual co-existance.

Islamic scholars of Religon (Mullahs,Imams,Ulama) were also scientists since the Quran encouraged the Muslims to look into science to see the power of God.

Muslim and Jewish scholars along with some Heretic Christians or "enlightened" scientists created a "JEWEL" in Europe.

Science, Mathematics,Astronomy, Philosphy etc. were discussed and studied with all three faiths living in harmony and peaceful coexistance.

This islamic attitude to science, mathematics and learning was so foreign in Europe that it was considered heresy and blasphemy.

This got the Catholic Church so UPSET they hunted down all the Muslims/Heritics and converted them by force or killed them.

The Church was so fanatically against free thought and scientific research that they blamed the Renaissance on Islam.

In revenge for undermining the awesome power of the Church (and planting a seed for Europe to emerge out of the Dark Ages) ,the Pope killed or baptised by force all the Muslims (and Jews) in Spain.

Then the Pope and Church along with loyal Kings started the Crusades to make sure Islam would not reach any further into Europe with their "heretical views".

The Islamic view of One God, no original sin, and the belief that there should be NO Religious hierarchy and NO organized church was a total slap in the face of Christiandom.

“The Renaissance of Europe did not take place in the 15th century. Rather it began when Europe learned from the culture of the Arabs. The cradle of European awakening is not Italy. It is the Muslim Spain.” (Robert Briffault, The Making Of Mankind)

“The Christian World came to wage crusades against Muslims but eventually knelt before them to gain knowledge. They were spellbound to see that Muslims were owners of a culture that was far superior to their own. The Dark Ages of Europe were illuminated by nothing but the beacon of Muslim Civilization.” (F.J.C Hearushaw, The Science of History.)

“The greatest crimes, the greatest “sin” of Mohammed in the eyes of Christian West is that he did not allow himself to be slaughtered, to be “crucified” by his enemies. He only defended himself, his family and his followers; and finally vanquished his enemies. Mohammed’s success is the Christians’ gall of disappointment… He did not believe in any vicarious sacrifices for the sins of others.” (Edward Gibbon, Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire.)



Only the atheists have the intellectual honesty to acknowledge these Islamic accomplishments :

Answer 1

*********

Actually, it was the fall of the Byzantine Empire that sparked the Renaissance. When all of the fleeing Byzantine scholars and historians fled to Europe, they brought with them a great influx of ancient greek and roman knowledge. This inspired Europe to bring again styles of greek and roman architecture, art, and styles of literature

What do atheists have to say about Muhammad?
How about this challenge from an expert on Islam, a
former Muslim himself:
**



The challenge is:

Disprove my accusations against Muhammad.

I accuse Muhammad of being:

a rapist
a pedophile (had sex with a child)
an assassin
a mass murderer
a ruthless torturer
a terrorist (I have been made victorious through terror)
a lecher
a misogynist
a narcissist
a thief and plunderer
a cult leader
a mentally deranged (was paranoid, heard voices, hallucinated of seeing jinns, Satan and angels, used to think he had sex with his wives when he did not, suffered from depression and had suicidal tendencies).

Answer 2

Your question, "How did the Muslims create any such worldly society in Spain which sparked the Renaissance ? ", became completely unanswered interior the context of your posting. Your posting seems to be like extra an attempt to develop up Islam, positioned down Christianity and to extol the virtues of the Muslim faith. that's no longer a foul ingredient even if it does not talk to the question you asked. the actuality of the question is that it became no longer the "Muslim faith" as lots by way of fact the Ottoman Empire that enabled the Arab international to journey their "Renaissance" long before Europe. the training of Mohammad relatively helped in that together with his coaching to locate and to boost wisdom however the Empire of that factor allowed for a extra genteel and balanced acceptance of alternative perspectives and ideology. After the fall of the Ottoman Empire (and via), the corruption of the leaders began to have its result. by way of fact that factor the Arab international became thrown back right into a sort of "dark a while" by way of fact wisdom and reason became being replaced with the help of religious zeal, furvor and extremism. in basic terms like the time of the Catholic trials, and burnings of books and persons so too the Muslim faith suffered on the palms of ideologs who in basic terms wanted their thank you to proceed to exist. IF God is God (no remember if of the Muslims, Christians, or different) then HE can take care of HIS word and HIS way - in spite of what guy could do. jointly as all religions have their bloodshed and wars, it is God Who will end it. A lifeless infadel won't be able to make the choice to maintain on with God. An infadel who sees, hears, and watches the affection of the followers in the direction of one yet another and in the direction of others will make a option to maintain on with. there is peace and prosperity while reason prevails, yet conflict and destruction while that reason is replaced with idealism and fanaticism of any kind.

Answer 4

The Holly Quran is more realistic than the bible and torah....and it is for sure that Mohammed is the most perfect person that the God created.
The ones who claim all those ****,please show me proof,,but you do not have any proof except your being 3rd rate people

Answer 5

Mohammad -pbuh- travelled a lot. He collected knowledges from other countries and cultures. THEN scientists of his society, "worked" on those knowledges and (thanks to those knowledgles) could (as every scientist does!!!) "invent" something "new" (or just repeat what they learned thanks to other cultures). Of course every one of us and every civilisation is useful for this Earth (I said civilisations, not people who bomb everything, everywhere!). "We all are cells of a same body"! Nowadays muslems, unfortunately, are not the kind of muslems of "past times" (the ones reported by Ghandi, included in this "past"). G(O)OD-BYE!
