Muslim Scientists :

A Journey of Innovation

Can you guess what this is?

Abu Ali Ibn Al-Haytham

Al-Battani- 365 days

Jabir Ibn Hayyan

"The first essential in chemistry is that you should perform practical work and conduct experiments, for he who performs not practical work nor makes experiments will never attain to the least degrees

of mastery. But you, O my son, do experiment so that you may acquire knowledge. Scientists delight not in abundance of material; they rejoice only in the excellence of their experimental methods."

Nobel Peace Prize 1999Ahmed Zewail

Zewail's key work has been as the pioneer of femtochemistry. He developed a method using a rapid laser technique (consisting of ultrashort laser flashes), which allows the description of reactions at the atomic level.

It can be viewed as a highly sophisticated form of flash photography.
