    To all you guys saying “who cares if he was Arab. What matters is what he did and not where he is from”.
    - Ironicly this does not seem to apply when the Arab is suddenly a bad guy?
    Edit:
    I see a lot of comments on the fact that the man was Persian.
    Have none of you even understood my point? I could have replaced “Arab”
    with “Persian” or “Muslim”. My point still remains, you geniuses. What are you even trying to debate here?

      also there is/was no "Arab" country but there was an Islamic Khilafat and that is were Al-Khwarizmi came from, and because it was a huge empire "Khilafa" and had much larger scientists who invented many of the science we have now, the Arabic Numerals become more famous and used all around the world

    It was invented between the 1st and 4th centuries by Indian mathematicians. The system was adopted in Arabic mathematics (also called Islamic mathematics) by the 9th century. Influential were the books of Al-Khwārizmī[3] (On the Calculation with Hindu Numerals, c. 825) and Al-Kindi (On the Use of the Hindu Numerals, c. 830). The system later spread to medieval Europe by the High Middle Ages.

    To your information brothers,
    There is someone who called ibn Al Haytham, he is the one that invented optics. And As a result we have things called camera and cinema Now. And he is an Arab.
    There is someone who called Abbas bin Fernas, he is the one that invented the idea of planes.
    There is someone who called Gaber bin Hayyan, He has been described as “the father of early chemistry”. And he is an Arab
    I don’t know why are you angry about Arabs scientists, or Muslims that took sciences from another culture and tried to develop and improve them.
    As humans we should take science from anywhere we can.
    The result will be for all humans.
    Same as the European that took sciences from Arab Universities.
    And improve them to higher levels
    And [By the way],
    University ( As a modern definition ) is invented by Arabs too 😉.
    So, keep calm. All of us are humans.

      Muhammad al-Fasari translated brahmagupta's brahma-sphuta bhashyam into Arabic. Another, Al-Khwarizmi, had some of Brahmagupta's findings al-Jamwal-Tafaric. B Hisal-al-Hind (al-Jam wal-tafriq bi hisal-al-Hind ) was published as a book called Addition and Subtraction in Indian Arithmetic.
      These Arabic books were translated into Europe centuries later and translated into Latin as Algorithmi de numero indorum, which spread through these books by Brahma Gupta and his contemporary great mathematicians throughout the world. But until recently, the Arabs and Europeans had propagated them as their own inventions.

      The thing about knowledge is that it's a process. A long chain of discovery. That's why I believe we shouldn't credit one single demographic for knowledge but rather humanity as a whole. It doesn't matter which group the knowledge came from but rather who and how. Even prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said to his companions, "Seek knowledge! Even if you have to go to the far east of China to obtain it." We can clearly see he doesn't care which group came up with the knowledge. Because we are all the children of Adam and Eve. Allah's most precious creation because humans were made to be more knowledgable than other creations. So, let us all grow together as our father and mother Adam and Eve would've wanted us to.

    Al-Khwarizmi wrote "Kitab al hisab al Hindi"( "book of Hindu numericals").
    This was translated into Latin by the name "Algorithmi de Numero Indorum" ("Al-Khwarizmi's Indian numericals").
    Khwarizmi also wrote "kitab al-jam' wa'l-tafriq al-ḥisāb al-hindī ('Addition and subtraction in Indian arithmetic').
    This was another work inspired from Indian mathematics which was largely in use until next 3 centuries.
    Khwarizmi's "Zij al-Sindhind" (Astronomical tables of Siddhanta) is another work consisting of approximately 37 chapters on astronomical calculations based on Indian astronomical methods. The word 'Sindhind' is literally means Hindus living along the Sindhu river
    Al Khwarizmi himself called it ilm ul Hind ("knowledge of Hindus"). But we call it "Algorithm" .

      utilize your logic please.
      Al-Khwirizmi learn a lot, developing something that are already exist into a very different and better version of it, just to made a greatness invention for human life.
      And you Indians claiming that it were yours? Somehow I found a comment from an indian guy, that the arabs invade Indians and stole their knowledge, like what in the fairy tales is this?
      Middle eastern peoples will always travel around the world to spread Islamic religion and life, and also in use for searching better knowledge.
      Why you Indians can't take some peace and accept islam? You guys really hate them huh? Doesn't your religion tells you to be a peace and mind person? Your gods tell you this didn't? I'm not surprised if you were ignorant about this, since you're Indians, they will never accept any good aspect from islam, not even religion, not even their invention, not even their contribute to the world, and not even their kindness.

    There's a simple reason it's called the Hindu-Arabic numeral system. They had their origins in Indian 2,300 years ago, but were eventually imported into the Arab caliphates some time in the 9th century. Through the work of mathematicians in the caliphates, whether Persian, Arab, or other, they eventually came to be known to the Europeans. Eventually, they were referred to as Arab numerals, because that's where the Europeans got them from.
    So if you don't like Hindu reference in the name, you can chalk that up to the naive Europeans not knowing the numerals originated in India. Whereas if you don't like the Arab reference, that is on account of where the Europeans got the numerals from. Either way, it is not inaccurate to call the numerals Hindu-Arabic, and is a good compromise for acknowledging the history of the numerals.

Egypt alone for example is the one invented many things in mathematics more than any other, Pi aka the golden ratio is found all over temples and the pyramids of Egypt Meaning they knew Pi well before every one else they also invented the metric and 0 system and the science of the pyramids can prove that, Pyramids still puzzle scientist today everything is precise to the centimeter. Baghdad was the center of knowledge at that time, they were able to gather all that knowledge from rich cultures and attributed to science and math to what we know today.

    Actually it's Arabic numerals not Indian because:
    1- Al-Khuarizmi developed the Indian numerals(१, २, ३, ४, ५, ६, ७, ८, ९, ०) into two types of fonts of numbers:
    -the western Arabic(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0)
    -and eastern Arabic(١، ٢ ٣، ٤، ٥، ٦، ٧، ٨، ٩، ٠)
    So basicaly he created a totaly new type font of numbers.
    2- it's exactly like the writting systems just developing, for example:
    -Phonaecian alphabet developed into Greek then into Latin so if you want to name the Arabic numerals as Indian instead, you must name the Greek alphabet as Phonaecian
    3- Al Khuarizmi was a Persian by ancestry but an Arab by culture, language, nationality and ethnicity.
    Actually I believe that all the people with the haplogroup j(j1+j2) are the same nation and they are all Arabs with different names so Persians Kurds Israelis Turks Azeris Akkadians Assyrians Babylonians Sabaeans Maganese Dilmunese Hijazis Phonaecians Canaanites Amorites Hittites Anatolians are Arabs.

( you can read this in history book called TARIKH TABARI) So it’s not because you have English name that you are American or British. Mexicans are not Spanish but they have Spanish name. When you are forced to covert to Islam you must have a Muslim name. A French friend of mine just married Muslim woman so converted to Islam and changed his name from Raphael to Rafigh. Anyway Iran have never been colonized, had never changed his language. All countries invaded by Arabes have been forced to become Muslims or speak Arabic.All people from syria , Lebanon, to North Africa are not Arabs they are Berbers and had their culture only Spain resisted against the religion and language and Iran for language and kept also its Zoroastrian traditions. Kharazm was a région of Iran at that time. Kharazmi as his name is showing is from Kharazm. I hope it’s clear now.

    Al Khwarizhmi acknowledged in his works that they were based on the "kitab-al Hind", the book of Hindu numerals and mathematics. Most Arabic mathematicians freely acknowledged that their work was based on Hindu texts. The so-called "Arabic numerals" of 1, 2, 3, 4... are NOT Arabic but Hindu. At best, the Arabs were somewhat honest transmitters of knowledge from India to the West. Similar is the case with many other "arabic inventions", including Damascus steel which was nothing but wootz steel from India.

    2. 1,2,3...etc are what we call “arabic numbers” and (١.٢.٣...) are the Indian numbers; you can obtain them by adding an Arabic keyboard and switch to numerical values.
    3. When I was a child we were taught that Indian numbers are what we used to call “Arabic number” and Arabic numbers are what we used to call “English numbers”.

      Muhammad al-Fasari translated brahmagupta's brahma-sphuta bhashyam into Arabic. Another, Al-Khwarizmi, had some of Brahmagupta's findings al-Jamwal-Tafaric. B Hisal-al-Hind (al-Jam wal-tafriq bi hisal-al-Hind ) was published as a book called Addition and Subtraction in Indian Arithmetic.
      These Arabic books were translated into Europe centuries later and translated into Latin as Algorithmi de numero indorum, which spread through these books by Brahma Gupta and his contemporary great mathematicians throughout the world. But until recently, the Arabs and Europeans had propagated them as their own inventions.

    It is true that Al-Khawarizmi is not Arabian by race, but he is still considered Arabian by culture. Even his name is a pure arabic name (Abu Abdullah Muhammed Ibn Musa). Because actually he with his family all immigrated to Arab world (Baghdad) from early age, became one of the Arabs, had his education and done his scientific achievements after that all in Arab world under the Arabic civilization, hence he and his achievement are attributed to it. So, he is Arab. And no mistake in saying that or in call it arabic numerals. It is not about race.

The church persecuted scholars like Gallilee, while Islam encouraged evolution and knowledge. I noticed that there are many video on the network of Western Christians and atheists reporting that Al Kawarizmi was not Arabic, but as far as we are concerned, we do not care because the most important thing for us he is Muslim and it makes them rage that at the same time the Christians were nothing in their dark age .

    @tirtha_debnath 2 года назад +8

    The decimal numerical system was invented by the Indians, not by the Arabs. Al-khwarizmi took it from us and introduced it to the europeans, then the europeans popularised it. This should be call as "The Hindu numeral" or "The Indian numeral".

      To be fair, he did say in the title of his work that it was a study of Hindu numerals. It's just the Europeans who couldn't differentiate between Arabs, Persians, and Hindus. They likely named the system after Arabs because that's who they would have directly interacted with to learn this system.

My friends, you should know something. There is no difference between an Arab or a non-Arab except with piety. We are all Muslims. We are one hand. We help each other. We stand for each other and face difficulties. your skin, but unfortunately there are not many people who understand the meaning of this and the enemies (colonialism) have succeeded in separating us and making us fight each other So as an Arab our education didn’t teach me this numbers were Islamic
