I'm not a muslim, I'm christian, but you're so wrong on that attitude about the muslims stopping where they were while the west has "moved forward." I think that is actually not true because it is the western ways that are the ones who've gone backward. Sometimes preservation, strength and will is moving forward. The western people have lost themselves I think.
