The Islamic Golden Age was a period of scientific, economic, and cultural flourishing in the history of Islam, traditionally dated from the establishment of the House of Wisdom in the early 8th century and lasting until the Sack of Baghdad and the subsequent collapse of the Abbasid Caliphate in the 13th century.[1]
History[]
Around the height of the period, Thābit ibn Qurra emerged as a leading visionary in the fields of mathematics, mechanical engineering, medicine, astrology, and astronomy, being instrumental in ushering in many of the scientific reformations of that period. He occupied his years after moving to Baghdad, then the center of the Islamic world, and occupied his years with teaching, study, and innovation until his death in 901AD. His son Sinan became one of the city's most important physicians who played a major role in the upkeep and development of the public hospitals during that era, and his grandson Ibrahim went on to become a distinguished mathematician.[2]
