Islam in Europe: When Muslims Ruled in Europe

There is no doubt that this is a series of fascinating videos. But do they convey the truth about Islam in Europe, or do they whitewash the period in Spanish history? You decide.

One has to ask oneself the simple question: If the Muslims’ civilization in Al-Andalus was so wonderful, and the achievements so great, why has so little in the way of inventions and discoveries come out of the Muslim world ever since?

Further, if their building ability in those days was so exceptional, why do Muslim countries today need so many Western companies to build their cities in places like the Gulf? And if their medicine was so advanced, why do their doctors have to come and train in the West?

Was this documentary produced, perchance, by the renowned, politically-correct BBC? - ©Mark
