Islam Invented Camera & Photography!!!

[Kramer]

The camera obscura was first invented by the Iraqi scientist Ibn al-Haytham (Alhazen) as described in his Book of Optics (1015-1021).[3] English scientist Robert Boyle and his assistant Robert Hooke later developed a portable camera obscura in the 1660s.[4]

If You Go back in to Muslim History There Is Many Things They Invented.

I Like This Line From The Movie Lawrance Of Arabia When Prince Faysal Of The Binu Hashim Says "When We Arabs Were Living In Cordoba 1400 Years Ago With Lush And Watered Green Gardens And Light In The Streets You Were In Caves Painting Yourselves Blue looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool."

Meaning DOnt Look Down On Us.

The University Of Cordoba Was THe TOp In THe WOrld And Some Of Its Student Were European Royalty And Nobeles.

You are living in the past. The British make fun of themselves and say the last great invention they had was the jet engine. The Muslim has to go back to the 12th century for a great invention? This is madness.

I think it is time to fight the Wahaabi scum who are holding Islam in the dark ages.

[Cawar]

Islam needs nothig to invent in order to compete or show other relaigions/civilazions what Islam is capable of.

Its enough that Islam is for all ppl.

BTW...those inventions you mentioned were not by islam..it was by ppl who happened to be muslims.

Ever heard anyone saying christianity invented this or that??

Stop associatig anything "worldly" done by ppl good or bad by islam...its better that way.

Cilmiile,

How do you propose Islam get out of the Dark Ages? By abolishing it? Abandoning prayer? Explain.

Ever wondered why all the great inventions were back in the day? Cause Muslims were better and now that they've decided to lick ass to gaalos, they have become behind in all the latest inventions. When Muslims were actually good Muslims they literally were on "top of the world".

Prophet Muhammad SAW brought us all (mankind) from darkness into light. All we have now is all we need. In my opinion, let the kufaar worry about how to go from 0-60 m/p/h in 1.5 seconds instead of 5 seconds or inventing a toothbrush that cleans our teeth mechanically without any effort on our part. We should be more concerned with perfecting our Iimaan because all inventions in this world won't do anything for you in the Hereafter, unless they're Islamically inclined.

dont forget muslims invented paper while the europeans were still using stone.

And Muslims invented soap and shampoo while these ppl were shiting in the streets of London....It's 2008 and they still wipe shit all over themselves and don't have the dignity to wash.

You learn something new everyday. Mashallah I didn't know that. I knew muslims invented lots of things which helped the improvement of the world. The west always trys to make the muslims look dumb and backwards.

Also taking pictures of living beings like Humans and Animals is Haraam. But taking pictures of anything else is cool.
