The question must be asked widely: Why are Muslims no longer capable of
creativity in philosophy, literature and art? Why are we no longer
offering something new in the field of empirical experimental sciences?
I'm talking about a billion and a half Muslims occupying 57 countries in
the world. A huge figure representing a quarter of the world. Yet the
number of Nobel prizes received by Muslims is only 9 before adding
Tawakul Karman. Only two of them are in the sciences. While Jews, who
represent only one country, whose numbers in the whole world are tiny,
not more than 14 million, received 200 prizes! Over 50 prizes in physics
and a similar number in medicine and physiology. Each Jew's
accomplishments is the equivalent of 2,000 Muslims!
