Arab scholars played a crucial role in the development of science, mathematics, and philosophy during the Islamic Golden Age, which spanned from the 8th to the 14th centuries. They preserved and expanded upon the knowledge of ancient civilizations, including the Greeks and Romans, translating important texts into Arabic. Notable figures include Ibn Sina (Avicenna), who made significant contributions to medicine, and Al-Khwarizmi, who is often referred to as the father of algebra. These scholars established institutions like the House of Wisdom in Baghdad, where they collaborated and shared ideas. Their work laid the foundation for many modern disciplines, influencing both the Islamic world and Europe during the Renaissance. The legacy of Arab scholars continues to be recognized for its impact on education and intellectual thought.
