I think the most important Muslim invention was the compass. It has evolved into the gps, something we use almost everyday. Plus, it helped know when to turn to Mecca.

I agree with you. The compass is very important because it eventually it turned into the modern gps that is very important to us in locating places.

I agree, cars would be useless, babies would not have singing elmo, and there would be no access to the internet. It has a big impact in modern society.

I agree! Without batteries so much stuff we use today would be useless. We wouldn't have cars, TVs, phones, or lots of other stuff too.

I agree and disagree with Jack. Yes, batteries are made with sulfuric acid and that without batteries we wouldn't basically have and technology, but it would be so bad without technology. Instead of teens being on their phone 24/7, they can go outside with their friend instead of texting them. It would be like the 160s all over again.

I disagree with you BRISY but agree with jack.I think the reason teens are on their phones all the time is because their parents let them do it, they gave them the opportunity to do it. And yes sulfuric acid allows us to do the thing I am literally doing right now, typing.

The best Muslim invention was toothpaste because without it our teeth would be very yellow and would fall out very easily which will mean we will not be able to talk well.

I think the most important invention was coffee. Some people need to wake up in the morning and coffee helps with that.

I disagree with Lidia. I disagree with her because I don't think that coffee was the most important. There are many other good ways to wake up in the morning. There are even some better and healthier ways to wake up in the morning. Like apples are very healthy and wake you up. Also smelling salt will wake you up even faster than coffee, but of course do not smell salt all the time or it could be bad. But if the Muslims did not create coffee we can not say that it would not be created later on by others. But also if coffee was not created we might have healthier habits of waking up every morning. This why I disagree with Lidia.

I think that the most important Muslim invention was the compass. I think this because it would be very hard to even tell were you are going. We would not have such thinks as radar or GPS. Also very importantly America might not have been discovered. I think this because compasses and maps were used to navigate oceans and travel in general. So because people would not be traveling the oceans with a good idea of what they were doing lots of stuff would not happened. Also the way if wars would probably change greatly. Many attacks are based on North, South, East, and West and knowing witch way they are. This is why I think that compasses were the most important Muslim invention.

I agree the compass is important. What would we do without the compass. People think they can just use GPS on their phone. If the compass wasn't made you wouldn't have GPS.

I think the most important thing the Muslim made is compass. People can get lost so if someone gets lost they can use the compass. Without the compass their wouldn't be GPS to help you figure out your destinations.

I think that the compass was an important muslim invention. If we didn't have a compass we wouldnt have a gps to know where to go. That is why I think it was important.

I think toothpaste is the most important invention because without it our mouths wouldn't be clean or healthy. toothpaste is also scented like mint so that is what also helps us have good smelling breath. toothpaste keeps away mouth diseases to so we don't catch them.

I believe that the most important Muslim invention was medicine and hospitals. I think that they are the most important because without it, a lot of people would be dead or dying. For example, one of the first types of medicine was the cure to Smallpox. Smallpox was killing many people and spread quickly. Without the cure, people would probably still be getting it and dying because of it. I think that hospitals were very important too, because without them, people could die a lot more because of injury or sickness. Also, they are used so much now, they are very important to the world.

I think medicine was the most important Muslim invention because without it, a lot of people would have died. And they were probably young people to *cough cough*. If we didn't have a cure for colds, runny noses, that would be BAD! Bad I tell you. BAD! And hospitals use medicine so, that's a plus. :P

I think that the most important Muslim invention is a cure for smallpox. I think this because, without it we might not have as many people living as we do now. Most of them would be very dead, I know that our bodies gave us a small immunity to it, but not all of us. With that said I think that the cure for smallpox was the best Muslim invention

I agree with you Austin about the smallpox cure. Well if we didn't know how to treat it we would be like the Native Americans once the pilgrims got here. A.K.A DEAD.

I think that the smallpox cure invention was the most impressive because smallpox is a very deadly disease. If you have smallpox is will kill you unless you use this invention. Smallpox is dangerous. Small pox can be cured.

I think the most important invention was the compass.I think that was the most important because without it was hard to tell which direction we were going, Once the compass was invented we were able to tell where we were going, because we did not have phones back then to tell us where to go the compass was the most important invention.

I think the advancments in medicine are the most important. If doctors didn't know what they do know more and more people would die for reasons we couldn't solve.

I think the best advancement is the art of medicine, most of the tools present doctors use are because of the Muslims. And they were the first to perform surgery. Their art in medicine have greatly influenced the way we use medicine today.

I think the advancements in medicine are the most important because it helped the creation of hospitals happen. You see I'm about to tell you a true story so this women was buying clothes on craigslist for her unborn baby. The woman finds some clothes she goes to the person who has the clothes house. The woman with the clothes smashes a bottle and cuts the baby out the pregnant woman's stomach. Luckily the woman who stabbed the pregnant one was arrest and also the pregnant woman walked to the hospital and was okay. How was the stabber lady caught, well she went to the same hospital the wounded lady did and the doctors put 2 and 2 together and they patched up the injured woman and her life was saved. WHO DO WE THANK FOR THE MEDICINE AND HOSPITALS THE MUSLIMS OF COURSE!!!!!!!! Sorry if that story A. Made you cry or B. made you squeamish.

I think the most important Muslim invention is medicine. Without medicine a lot of people would die from illnesses, like the common cold or even flu! Without medicine, I doubt that I would be to school most of the time because I would constantly be having bad headaches.
