Muslims integrated science, theology, and philosophy as they were urged to study, acquire knowledge, and learn from others' expertise and civilization. The significance of this study lies not in recounting the specific contribution of Muslims to the individual disciplines of science such as medicine, mathematics, astronomy, geometry, geology, mineralogy, chemistry, philosophy and architecture, and trigonometry. Those accounts though greatly important in their own right have been the central focus of a number of works. This paper highlights those aspects of Muslims' contribution to scientific body of knowledge that are subtle and perhaps more important to the development of the entire body of the scientific knowledge. Through an analysis of socio-cultural and historical context, the paper concludes that the contribution of Muslim scientist lies in (a) bringing to light the work of ancient Greek scholars in the field of science, and (b) bringing to the knowledge of Europe the works of Indian men of science, especially in mathematics, astronomy and medicine. Abstrak Sejarah sumbangan umat Islam terhadap bidang sains dan teknologi masa kini merupakan sejarah gemilang yang dilupakan. Umat Islam telah menyepadukan sains, ilmu agama, dan falsafah apabila mereka didesak untuk belajar dan mencari ilmu, serta mempelajari kepakaran dan ketamadunan masyarakat lain. Kajian ini sebenarnya tidak berfokus terhadap sumbangan-sumbangan yang spesifik oleh umat Islam dalam disiplin-disiplin sains seperti perubatan, matematik, astronomi, geometri, kaji bumi, mineralogi, kimia, falsafah dan senibina, serta trigonometri. Kajian-kajian menunjukkan bahawa pelbagai sumbangan orang Islam yang penting telah banyak diketengahkan. Walau bagaimanapun, kertas ini akan memberikan penekanan terhadap sumbangan umat Islam terhadap dunia sains ilmiah yang kurang ditonjolkan dan mungkin lebih penting peranannya dalam asas perkembangan terhadap dunia sains ilmiah secara keseluruhannya. Melalui analisis berdasarkan sosiobudaya dan konteks sejarah, kertas ini merumuskan bahawa sumbangan saintis Islam sebanarnya a) membantu menonjolkan hasil kerja orang Greek purba dalam bidang sains, dan b) mengetengahkan hasil kajian saintis-saintis India ke serata benua Eropah, terutamanya dalam bidang sains, matematik, astronomi dan perubatan.
