| 6 | 1001 inventions 1001 Inventions – Discover The Muslim Heritage In Our World. Muslim civilisation stretched from southern Spain as far as China. From the 7th century onwards, scholars of many faiths built on the ancient knowledge of the Egyptians, Greeks and Romans, making breakthroughs that paved the way for the Renaissance. The discoveries made by men and women in Muslim civilisation have left their mark on the way we live today. 1001 Inventions uncovers a thousand years of science and technology that has a huge but hidden impact on the modern world. | 2070 |
| 7 | International Society for the History of Islamic Medicine (ISHIM) There is a consensus amongst researchers of the history of medicine that early Arab and Muslim physicians had played a very important role in the development of medical science during the renaissance of Islamic civilization, which spanned for eight centuries. This was achieved through translating earlier medical and scientific scripts and developing these sciences in the light of their clinical expertise. Despite the above fact, it is well-known that, as yet, the full potential of the Islamic medical heritage has not been investigated in a way that shows its real role and importance in the development of modern medicine; especially its effect on the European Renaissance. So far, only a little part of this important heritage has been studied or come to light. Most of the scripts of Islamic medicine are dusting on the shelves of private and some public libraries around the world. In the light of this, a number of physicians, scholars and historians called for reviving this heritage on an international level. This is to be achieved through organization and teamwork. And this is how the idea of the International Society for the History of Islamic Medicine emerged. The first meeting of this society convened between 1-3 December 2000 in Doha (QATAR) and was chaired by HE Dr.H.A.Hajar Al-Binali, Minister of Health in Qatar. A number of physicians and historians have attended this meeting. | 1738 |

They highlight the proven scientific facts mentioned in the Qur’an and the Sunnah, which were unfeasible at the time of the Prophet (peace be upon him). Thus, it becomes crystal clear that the Prophet (peace be upon him) was truthful in conveying to the Muslims what Allah (Exalted and Glorified be He) revealed to him. | 2395 |

| 25 | Islamic Medicine on Line Many of things which humanity is discovering everyday in all branches of science including Medicine were predicted by the Holy Quran over 14 centuries ago. Although there is a great inter-relationship between modern medicine and some of our Islamic teachings, the criterions and characteristics of Islamic Medicine are that it is involved with Divine Ethics and Faith in Allah as the supreme authority. | 1839 |
| 26 | Truth in Science Truth in Science is an organisation promoting good science education in the UK. Our current focus is on the origin of life and its diversity. For many years, much of what has been taught in school science lessons about the origin of the living world has been dogmatic and imbalanced. The theory of Darwinian evolution has been presented as scientifically uncontroversial and the only credible explanation of origins. Nevertheless, you only have to read recent editions of academic and popular science journals to realise that there is a battle raging over this very issue. | 2293 |

| 7 | The Library of Congress USA The Library of Congress was established by an act of Congress in 1800 when President John Adams signed a bill providing for the transfer of the seat of government from Philadelphia to the new capital city of Washington. When the Library of Congress building opened its doors to the public on November 1, 1897, it was hailed as a glorious national monument and “the largest, the costliest, and the safest” library building in the world.

| 9 | The Virtual Museum of Iraq The Virtual Museum of Iraq is a scientific and cultural initiative promoted by the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and realized by the Italian National Research Council. The purpose of the project is to provide the public with the opportunity, through a web site, of coming into contact with the archeological, historical and artistic heritage of one of the most important museum institutions in the world, the National Museum of Iraq, in Baghdad. The museum, the foundation and development of which is linked to the historical and institutional events of Iraq itself, is home to an extraordinary collection of historical treasures. This collection grew and was extended thanks to the scientific surveys conducted by local and foreign archeological teams starting in the 1920’s. In 2003 the Baghdad Museum joined the sad list of world cultural sites destroyed or looted during wartime events. Thanks to the continuing efforts by local authorities and the international community, the activity of re-organization has been carry out and partially completed. The Virtual Museum of Iraq does not intend to reproduce faithfully the structure and the original set-up of the real museum, nor does it claim to be a comprehensive databank of all the objects contained therein. The network portal aims at being a tangible contribution to the knowledge (necessary basis for any safeguarding and conservation project) of an historical and archeological heritage of inestimable value and, at the same time, at becoming its communication projection on an international level. reconstructions of the contexts in which the monuments are located. A few numbers: 70 artifacts, 40 three-dimensional models, more than 100 images on file, 22 films, 18 archeological sites… all of which can be viewed in approximately six hours of navigation. The combination of interactive functions and various user formats, together with the special attention given to creating a user-friendly site and to the understanding the contents, make The Virtual Museum of Iraq portal a formidable instrument for exploring and learning about a cultural heritage that “disappeared” twice – the first time amidst the heavy layers of the sand of history, the second amidst the violence of the plundering during the war – and is still awaiting to be viewed by the world. | 1771 |
| 10 | Egyptian Museum The greatest collection of Egyptian antiquities is, without doubt, that of the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. It is a place of true discovery and, even after many visits, I continue to make new and delightful discoveries every time I venture into its many galleries. Apart from the Tutankhamun exhibits upstairs, there are countless coffins, amulets, ushabtis, household items, etc. Some of the Middle Kingdom tomb models of armies, boats and landowners surveying their livestock shouldn’t be missed. The human figures almost seem alive! Also upstairs is the Mummy Room where you can come face to face with some of the great rulers of ancient Egypt. | 1722 |
| 11 | The Natural History Museum UK The Natural History Museum is one of three large museums on Exhibition Road, South Kensington, London, England (the others are the Science Museum, and the Victoria and Albert Museum). The museum is home to life and earth science specimens comprising some 70 million items within five main collections: Botany, Entomology, Mineralogy, Palaeontology and Zoology. The museum is a world-renowned centre of research, specialising in taxonomy, identification and conservation.

The Natural History Museum Library contains extensive books, journals, manuscripts, and artwork collections linked to the work and research of the scientific departments. Access to the library is by appointment only. The museum is particularly famous for its exhibition of dinosaur skeletons, and ornate architecture — sometimes dubbed a cathedral of nature — both exemplified by the large Diplodocus cast which dominates the vaulted central hall. Originating from collections within the British Museum, the landmark Alfred Waterhouse building was built and opened by 1881, and later incorporated the Geological Museum. The Darwin Centre is a more recent addition, partly designed as a modern facility for storing the valuable collections. | 1754 |

| 33 | Renaissance – A Monthly Islamic Journal (Pakistan) Renaissance was launched in January 1991 with an aim to communicate the true message of Islam and to purge it from various innovations which have, over the years, crept into its edifice. The basic idea behind its initiation is to present the teachings of Islam in their pristine form and to apply its principles in current circumstances with a view to present positive solutions to the problems faced in the fields of law and politics, economics and sociology and indeed in all the other spheres of life. No doubt, a tempest has blown the Muslim fleet out of course. We are going through a period of general decline in all the affairs of life. A revolution in the intellectual and mental perspectives is the need of the hour. The challenge we face is prodigious and the effort required is Herculean. But then, there is a heartening aspect to this situation: In recent times, the task of such an intellectual and mental reformation has already been taken up by a religious scholar of exceptional intellect, Imam Hameed Uddin Farahi (d:1930). He, together with his most outstanding pupil Amin Ahsan Islahi (d:1997), has redirected the Muslim religious thought to the path from which it had deviated by opening the way to direct deliberation on the Qur’an. We intend to continue the work of intellectual revival begun by these two personalities in our own limited capacities so as to contribute whatever we can to the cause of this awakening. We are no scholars or men of learning, but very ordinary seekers of the truth. Our limitations and shortcomings are as evident to us as the midday sun, yet it is just the quest for the truth and the desire for its dissemination that has inspired us to undertake such a daunting task. In the tremendous pandemonium that prevails, our voice is no more than a whisper, yet something deep down in our hearts beckons us to devote even the last quantum of energy we have for the cause of truth: Stand upright, speak thy thought, declare, The truth thou hast that all may share, Be bold, proclaim it every where, They only live who dare. | 1806 |

| 41 | History of Islam: An encyclopedia of Islamic history The Encyclopedia of Islamic History (www.historyofislam.com) is the work of scholars whose intent is to create an enduring record of the role played by Islam in global history. It is maintained by the American Institute of Islamic History and Culture based in California. Professor Dr. Nazeer Ahmed (nazeer.ahmed@delixus.com) serves as its director. History is a Sign from the heavens. The Qur’an declares: “I will show you My Signs on the horizon and within your own souls until you have certainty of faith”. ‘On the horizon’ means history and nature. Thus history and science take on a sacred character in as much as they are “Signs” from God. This guiding principle separates this encyclopedia from other works of similar nature. |
