Crusades

Crusades were Christian military expeditions organised mainly to recapture Palestine durring the Middle Ages . Palestine, also called the Holy Land, was important to Christians because it was the region where Jesus Christ had lived . The crusaders, who came from Western Europe were expanding its economy and increasing its military forces .
Kings , nobles and thousands of knights, peasants, and towns people took part in the crusades . They had two stated goals , to gain permanent control of the Holy Land and to protect the Bysantine Empire . But many crusaders also fought to increase their power, territory, and riches . Large numbers of poor people joined the expeditions simply to escape their hard lives .
The crusaders won some battles , but their victories had no permanent effect. However , the crusades increased already existing contacts between the East and the West .The crusaders were originally called armed pilgrimates . How the crusades began .
In the 600’s, Arab Muslims conquered Palestine, and most of the new Arab rulers allowed the Christians to visit the Holy places. However when the Turks crushed the Byzantines, in 1071, and became Muslims they made it difficult for Christian pilgrims to reach these places .
In 1095, the Byzantine Emperor asked Urban 2, Pope of the Roman Catholic Church , for assistance to fight the Turks. He agreed, he wanted to defend Christianity against Muslims and to recover holy places. Urban 2 gave a sermon urging European Christians to recapture holy land from Muslims, thus thousand of people joined the cause.

Arabic( Islamic) Influence on Medicine

Arabic, or what is called Islamic, science in terms of ******** in space and time denotes the scientific activities of individuals who lived in a region that might extended chronologically from the eighth century A .D .to the beginning of the modern era, and geographically from the Iberian Peninsula and north Africa to the Indus valley and from the southern Arabia to the Casian Sea that is , the region covered for most of that period by what we call Islamic Civilization, and in which the results of the activities referred to, were for the most part expressed in the Arabic ********.
The West has not not done justice to the influence of the Muslims on the historical development of medicine. Western writers have given little prominence to Islamic Scientific and intellectual contributions to this field. But the fact is that the Muslims carried the torch of science and thought in an age when no other civilization was able of doing so. At one time, learning was regarded as heresy, and the Eastern Christian Church persecuted all scientists.They, fleeing from persecution, found no refuge but the Islamic leaders, which look them in and acquired from them the scientific heritage of the time .They were given a great deal of veneration and respect by the Muslims, whoendeavoured to ensure for them a congenial atmosphere in which to work and to develop learning .That was the beginning of a universal cultural revolution which enlightened the ancient world, and which the West later embraced, inheriting from the Muslims theirscientific and intellectual achievements.
