The advent of Islam occurred in an ignorant society that paid little attention to science. Except for a short period, there was neither encouragement for learning nor effort to acquire knowledge. However, Islam, upon its arrival, encouraged the pursuit of knowledge and made it obligatory for every Muslim man and woman. It elevated the status of scholars, praised them, and emphasized the importance of seeking knowledge—even if it lay in the farthest corners of the world. The secret behind the brilliance and distinction of Islamic science compared to the sciences of previous civilizations lies in this very point: the advancement and superiority that resulted from a combination of factors, foremost among them the transformative role of the Holy Qur'an. Moreover, the specific historical circumstances also played a significant role in advancing scientific progress within Islamic civilization to a high level of development. Muslims were the ones who developed the true scientific research method based on experimentation, and they made significant contributions in fields such as medicine, pharmacology, mathematics, astronomy, chemistry, zoology, botany, and more. But has the scientific civilization of Muslims now come to an end? Has its light dimmed, leaving Muslims with no option but to rely—willingly or unwillingly—on the light of modern (Western) science? And what is the solution? This study reveals that modern Western science itself is but one link in a long chain—a period within an extensive history that began with the emergence of humans on earth. Contemporary science has not achieved its current dominant and powerful state in isolation. It has been built upon near and distant foundations and pillars. Modern Western science is currently the final link in a long chain, and other links will follow. Like the sciences of past civilizations, it, too, will eventually come to an end. In recent years, a number of Muslims have initiated a new awakening, and faint sparks of scientific brilliance and research have emerged here and there—perhaps the future holds promise. The method employed in this research is a historical-scientific one, based on scholarly studies, documents, and analysis.
