Abdullah Hakim Quick, the first American graduate of the Islamic University of Madinah, presents the Muslim contribution to modern civilization and their influence on the world during their 700 year rule in Al-Andulus (present day Spain). Topics of discussion include the contributions to geography, navigation, astronomy, physics, medicine, chemistry, mathematics and pharmacology as well as the early history of Muslims in the Americas. This survey also analyzes why Muslim Spain declined from its status as a "wonder of the world" to a lost treasure which is lamented to this day. It concludes with a slideshow of photos, taken by Imam Quick himself, that illustrate much of the material covered. (Duration: 1 hour, 58 min)
