Islamic science (also known as Arabic science, science in medieval Islam, Islamic science and technology, the Islamic scientific Revolution, or Muslim scientific revolution) is a term used in the history of science to refer to the science developed in the Islamic world prior to the modern era, particularly during what is known as the Islamic Golden Age (dated variously between the 7th and 16th centuries). Most texts during this period were written in Arabic, a lingua franca of this period; scientists within the Islamic civilization were of diverse ethnicity (a great portion were Persians and Arabs, in addition to Berbers, Moors and Turks) and diverse religious backgrounds (mostly Muslims, in addition to many Christians and Jews, as well as Sabians, Zoroastrians and the irreligious).
