The media today is in the hands of the Westerners, the Europeans - It is in their hand, They have the Satellite, they have the Television, they have the CNN, they have the BBC- It... is in their hand. The media is in their hands - and whatever you read in your school books, and books which we read in college - you will read there that ‘from 8th to the 12th century it was the Dark Ages’. It was dark for the Europeans - not for the world. The Arabs and the Muslims were very much advanced from 8th to the 12th century -they were very much advanced. The Europeans were backward because… they said ‘dark for the world.’ It was not dark for the world - It was dark for the Europeans. With the limited instruments and technology what we had from 8th to 12th century- what discoveries the Muslim Scientists made - it is unbelievable. Today, because Science is Advanced we are making so many discoveries. There with the amount of limited facilities we had, the amount of discoveries Muslim Scientists made - it’s unbelievable. Even they have latinized the word many names for example ‘Geber'- when we read in our tent books 'Geber'’, we think it is an European, 'Jabir Ibn Haiyan ' actually. (Geber)
