Well Jews do contribute to society more than muslims. Especially in the last hundred years.
(also Jews are a race, Muslims are not, so it's an odd comparison to begin with).
Their beliefs are irrelevant to their accomplishment.
Either way, none of this "Islamic inventors" is relevant to Islam or it's supposed truth.

But Islam did play a major role, there is a reason why it is called the Islamic Golden age. Without the rich economy, and common language across Africa, Europe, and the Middle East, that Islam created, no inventions would have been made. Any Historian will call you crazy if you said Islam played absolutely no role in those inventions.
Islam is more than just a religion, it is a way of life and it's teachings cover every aspect in life, one being to search for knowledge. It is an act of worship in Islam to seek knowledge. The Muslims were influenced by the teachings of Islam:
The oldest university according to UNESCO and Guinness world records in Morocco was founded by a muslim woman, Fatima al-Fihri in 859. A thousand years before any girl could get an education in the UK.What Muhammad[pbuh] said About Education/Study :
The seeking of knowledge is obligatory for every Muslim. [both male and female]
If anyone travels on a road in search of knowledge, Allah will cause him to travel on one of the roads of Paradise.
He who issues forth in search of knowledge is busy in the cause of Allah till he returns from his quest.
Seek knowledge from the cradle to the grave
He who leaveth home in search of knowledge, walk in the path of God”
Four things support the world: the learning of the wise, the justice of the great, the prayers of the good, and the valor of the brave”
Ibn Mas`ood, radiallaahu `anhu, said:
“True knowledge is not measured in relationship to how much you memorize and then narrate, but rather,true knowledge is an expression of piety [protecting oneself from what Allaah prohibited and acting upon what He mandated]. “Also, “Study and act upon what you learn.”
[Related by Abu Na`eem]
“All humans are dead except those who have knowledge;and all those who have knowledge are asleep, except those who do good deeds;and those who do good deeds are deceived, except those who are sincere;and those who are sincere are always in a state of worry.”
Imam Shafi’i (rahimullah)
“There is no worse calamity for knowledge and its people than when outsiders intrude. They are ignorant, but presume to know. They cause trouble yet think that they are helping.”
Imam Ibn Hazm Rahimahullah
Seek (beneficial) knowledge,because seeking it for the sake of Allaah is a worship. And knowing it makes you more God-fearing; and searching for it is jihad,teaching it to those who do not know is charity,reviewing and learning it more is like tasbeeh.Through knowledge Allaah will be known and worshiped.”
-Ibn Taymiyyah
A learned man who doesn’t restrain his passions is like a blind man holding a torch, he guides others but not himself.
-Shaykh Sa’di
Knowledge is my companion, it is with me wherever I go. My heart is its container, not the bookshelf.
–Ali RA
Science is learning about the creation, Islam is learning about the creator.
Alif, Lam, Meem. - 2:1 Quran
This is the Book about which there is no doubt, a guidance for those conscious of Allah(God) - 2:2 Quran
Who believe in the unseen, establish prayer, and spend out of what We have provided for them, - 2:3 Quran
And who believe in what has been revealed to you, [O Muhammad], and what was revealed before you, and of the Hereafter they are certain [in faith]. - 2:4 Quran
Those are upon [right] guidance from their Lord, and it is those who are the successful. - 2:5 Quran
Indeed, those who disbelieve - it is all the same for them whether you warn them or do not warn them - they will not believe. - 2:6 Quran
>Islam created common language / rich economy.
No. It didn't.
These also aren't part of the invention either. How are you even linking these inventions to Islam? They have nothing to do with the religion.
It's the same as every other religion, sorry. This is called "special pleading".
Do you even know the history of the UK?
How uneducated are you Robin? What grade level am I talking about here?
Have you even gone to highschool?
This isn't even something that's hard to research. Literally type in "Uk was founded in"!!
Fucking. Retard.
So you intend to tell me that something from the Middle Ages created rich culture, when the Akkadian dynasty prospered and conquered much of Mesopotamia, and became the world's first known Ancient Empire?
I could also tell you that if Mesopotamia had not been conquered, then the horse chariot that was famous in Roman times would never have been created. I could also tell you that had cuneiform not been created, that Mesopotamia and much of the middle-east would not know how to write in ancient times.
kay. That's just ignorant. Once again, the Islam supporters strike MPGH with their fallacies.
