Abstract

The development of Islamic civilization goes hand in hand with physical and spiritual development. This can be highlighted in the 9th century golden age of Islam which witnessed the development of knowledge by Muslims scholars in various disciplines, including mathematics. Although the discourse in mathematical science only involves numbers, letters, and formulas, however, Muslims scholars took it as an instrument to manifest the greatest of God. Hence this article will discuss the development of mathematical knowledge in the spotlight of Islamic civilization. The method of study is qualitative through literature study. The study found that the Quran became a source of inspiration to Islamic scholars in mathematics so that the branch of knowledge such as number theory, arithmetic, algebra, and geometry. Then the sciences are developed and exploited by people around the world so far today.

Keywords: Islamic civilization, mathematic, history of mathematic

ABSTRAK: Perkembangan tamadun Islam bergerak seiring dengan pembangunan fizikal dan spiritual. Hal ini dapat disoroti pada kurun ke-9 zaman keemasan Islam yang menyaksikan perkembangan ilmu pengetahuan kalangan sarjana Islam dalam pelbagai disiplin ilmu, termasuklah ilmu matematik. Meskipun wacana dalam ilmu matematik hanya melibatkan angka, huruf, dan sejumlah formula, sarjana Islam menjadikannya sebagai instrument memanifestasikan kebesaran Tuhan. Justeru artikel ini akan membincangkan perkembangan ilmu matematik dalam sorotan tamadun Islam. Metode kajian adalah bersifat kualitatif melalui kajian kepustakaan. Kajian mendapati, al-Quran menjadi sumber inspirasi para sarjana Islam dalam ilmu matematik sehingga terhasilnya cabang ilmu seperti teori nombor, aritmetik, algebra, dan geometri. Kemudian ilmu-ilmu tersebut dikembangkan dan dimanfaatkan oleh masyarakat di seluruh dunia sehingga hari ini.
