No, it was pretty clear what I meant. I think everyone who's not an autistic retard knew what I meant.

You came in blustering while making untrue statements.

No, that was actually you. Let's examine your post that started it all:

You probably don't care but, at least until fairly recent history

What is recent history? Is that yesterday? Or do you mean "about 1000 years ago"?. In which case, your statement isn't really true. Hmmmm.

a goodly amount of our mathematics has come from Arabia and much of this was done during the times of the Muslim empires.

What is goodly supposed to mean? Is it a hyperbole, perchance? How do you quantify goodly. And does it really come from Arabia, or was it just collected there?

You may recognize that we named a whole discipline after him, called Algebra.

Bullshit.

"The word algebra comes from the Arabic الجبر (al-jabr "restoration") from the title of the book Ilm al-jabr wa'l-muḳābala by al-Khwarizmi."

"Muḥammad ibn Mūsā al-Khwārizmī[note 1] (Arabic: محمد بن موسى الخوارزمی‎‎; c. 780 – c. 850), formerly Latinized as Algoritmi,[note 2] was a Persian[3] mathematician,"

Boy I could go on and on with this.

Destroyed by your own rules of engagement.
