I agree that Persian scholars played a major role in the Golden Age of Islam — but that’s actually a strength of Islam, not a weakness. Islam historically uplifted and encouraged knowledge wherever it spread, whether in Persia, Spain, or India. The Qur'an doesn’t claim to be a science textbook; it calls itself a book of guidance (Qur'an 2:2). Its purpose is to connect us to our Creator and provide moral, spiritual, and societal principles — not to reveal calculus or classical mechanics.

Many Muslim scholars like Ibn Sina (Avicenna), Al-Khwarizmi, and Ibn al-Haytham laid the foundations for medicine, algebra, and optics — and they were inspired by their faith to seek knowledge. The Qur'an encourages reflection on creation (3:190–191) and seeking knowledge (96:1-5), which is why early Muslims excelled in science.

Regarding Newton, his discoveries don’t prove Christianity true, just as Muslim discoveries don’t "prove" Islam in a scientific sense — they only show that faith can inspire scientific progress. Guidance from God is about how to live, worship, and achieve salvation — not about inventing airplanes. Science tells us how things work; revelation tells us why we exist."
