Islam is a universal religion that embraces all aspects of life and urges Muslims to seek knowledge in order to excel in this life and the Hereafter. However, most areas of knowledge are now dominated by Western theories and the current generation somehow does not acknowledge Muslim leading scholars, despite the fact that Western scholars initially took knowledge and theories from scholars of Islamic civilisation. Therefore, this book was published to disseminate knowledge of history and Islamic civilisation (theology, hadith, Islamic law, Sufism, history, philosophy) as well as modern sciences (mathematics, astronomy, science, medicine), particularly in Uzbekistan and Asia. This book documents the contributions of Muslim scholars such as Imam Bukhari, Ibn Sino, Mahmud Zamakhshari, Abu Mansur al-Maturidi, al-Khawarizmi, al-Biruni, and many others who have made significant contributions to the advancement of Islam, sociocultural, science, and other fields. This book also provides an overview of the Islamic studies academy and reference centre, which was established during the golden era of islamic civilization. As a result, it is hoped that this book will commemorate Muslim scholars' contributions to Islamic civilisation's advancement and instil a sense of gratitude in current and future generations.
