2 Student A reads paragraphs 1, 3 and 5. Student B reads paragraphs 1, 2 and 4.
Then ask each other what these words refer to.
a Mecca b ‘al-sifr’ c algebra d Ibn-e-farnas
1 Do you recognize these words: alcohol, sugar, syrup, jacket, sofa? They all come from Arab words.
There are many things in modern culture all around the world that originally came from the Arabic
societies of a thousand years ago.
2 A long time before European doctors knew about medicine and disease, Muslim doctors knew what
caused many diseases and how to control them. Mecca, Medina, Cairo and other great Muslim cities
all had hospitals with large gardens.
3 The Arabs borrowed their numerical system from ancient India. When they did so, they called the
number 0 ‘al-sifr’. This means nothing or empty. The Arabic word was Latinised as zero. Algebra
comes from Arabic word ‘al-jabr’ which means changing a complicated set of numbers into a simpler
language of symbols. This knowledge of mathematics was used by the Muslims to explore the seas
and the stars: Sindbad was a real sailor who made voyages to China, Japan and Indonesia. All this
happened many years before the European voyages of discovery.
4 While the Muslims were ruling in Spain there was great progress in science, arts, agriculture, and
other products of civilization. The Muslims brought ideas like water irrigation — very important in hot
countries — and the use of water for mills to create power and for clocks. Ibn-e-farnas was a Muslim
scientist and inventor living in Spain. Around 800 AD he designed a flying machine — 700 years
before Leonardo da Vinci’s ideas. The Mosque in Cordoba is one of the few remaining buildings that
shows the incredible architecture and design of the ancient mosques all over the Muslim world.
5 Many people know that paper was invented in China, but not that paper was made of silk. It was the
Muslims who changed silk for cotton, which was much cheaper and easier to use. It was this invention
which allowed printing to develop in Europe. The Renaissance — one of the most important periods
in European history and learning — was possible only because of paper and printing.
