The Muslim scientist, Ibn Firnas, invented a flying device in the 800’s A.D. Roger Bacon learned and was inspired by flying machines from Ibn Firnas’s glide. He invented his glider
before Bacon& Da Vinci. Roger Bacon drew a flying device after he saw Ibn Firnas’s invention; both were into aviation and engineering. Both scientists were a great influence for others and they both contribute in changes in this world. They both are an importance to science, math, scholars, and aviation. These inspirations and contributions show a relationship between both European& Muslims scholars. Although both scientists had same interests, they had their own unique way of thinking and their own different inventions. They both studied in the same fields but different subjects and different places. They wrote different books and had different languages & cultures. There is so much the Arab world has contributed to the European moderns. It was the Muslims who looked carefully after the knowledge of ancient times, elaborated, and passed it on to Europe & other parts of the
world. Therefore, Europeans did benefit from Muslim scholars, who had helped in the contribution in science, geography, mathematics, medicine, art, and literature.
The history of Ibn Firnas’s aviation and even Roger’s effort for travel is enriched in a great scholar’s inventor effort. This achievement in flying has given inspiration to the West and to the other parts of the world, which helped in the development of aviation. The invention of Ibn Firnas has proven to have influenced today’s modern aviation technology. His contribution to aviation and science has been given a chance for us to have a great idea of science. He is considered as ‘the father of the aviation field of the world’. If European and
Muslim scholars did not contribute, we would’ve had a hard time to get to where we are.
