Before you buy the game, The truth about AC from a Islamic perspective: Assasins were "Nizaris Ismailis" a Shia sect and were enimies of Fatimids and Abbasids and most scholors in books refered them to Qarmatians or Batiniyya. These assasains killed many orthodox sunnis scholars in the name of justice but it was deviant Sect, unanimoulsy agreed by majority of muslims even the twelvers shites.

But here is a quranic verse and 2 hadiths about seeking knowledge that are 'sahih' (correct in chain of narration). 1- sura 58 verse 11 "Allah will raise those who have believed among you and those who were given knowledge, by degrees." 2- "Seeking knowledge is a duty upon every Muslim..." Sunan Ibn Majah 224 3- "He who follows a path in quest of knowledge, Allah will make the path of Jannah easy to him. The angels lower their wings over the seeker of knowledge, being pleased with what he does. The inhabitants of the heavens and the earth and even the fish in the depth of the oceans seek forgiveness for him. The superiority of the learned man over the devout worshipper is like that of the full moon to the rest of the stars (i.e., in brightness). The learned are the heirs of the Prophets who bequeath neither dinar nor dirham but only that of knowledge; and he who acquires it, has in fact acquired an abundant portion."

The Houses of Wisdoms were first universities. Europe was at that time backward and it was Islam that produced new ideas, which entered Europe in Renessanse.

[@TheMonkeyking555]

“Europe was backward” and yet this so called “Islamic Golden Age” was the result of Christians translating European science and philosophy from European languages into a language (Arabic) that had up until then NO science or philosophy. The universities of Oxford and Bologna were founded 900 years ago and remain major centers of learning and civilization. What major centers of learning are there in the Islamic world? (Besides theological schools like Al Azhar that have never contributed to human civilization as a whole).

[@skepticalzostrianos9875]

@@TheMonkeyking555 And so was the renaissance the product of a big compaign of translation of arabic books into latin by arabs living in muslim lands who recently had come under Christian rule. If you want to do a research about nuclear fusion, you won't start your research from scratch. You won't start by re-inventing numbers, algebra, physical constants, formulas, etc. You'll continue where other scholars or scientists stopped. Thats how science research is done. Should I remind you that the Al-Qarawiyyin is the world’s oldest, continually operating university who was founded by a Muslim woman and is still a major centers of learning? In case you're not familiar with history, Al-Qarawiyyin had taught several well-known philosophers and scholars (not-necessarily muslim) like: Maimonides, Ibn Arabi, Ibn Khaldun, Leo Africanus, Imam al-Bannani, Ahmad ibn Idris, etc. Al-Qarawiyyin is a major learning center for Maliki fiqh, whereas lets say the university of madina is of hanbali/wahhabi fiqh.

@@TheMonkeyking555Christianity is not necessarily western, especially nestorian

[@TheMonkeyking555]

@@harambesson1098 You’re correct, Christianity wasn’t “Western” but that dichotomy didn’t fully exist in what was then a politically and (somewhat) culturally United Mediterranean world under the Roman Empire. It was really the Islamic conquests that severed the Mediterranean world into competing (East vs. West and North vs. South) political-cultural zones. It’s also true about the Nestorians as they developed largely within Sassanid Persia. That said, Christianity as a religion (and this includes the Nestorians) largely developed out of and within a Greek speaking cultural milieu far more so than it did within the Syriac speaking world. The Nestorians ultimately relied on Greek translations into Syriac and upheld council of Nicaea even though the churches under Persian rule did not participate in it. Many of the Church fathers had a Classical Greek (pagan) education and were very much impacted by the Greek philosophical and especially Neoplatonic tradition (Christ as “Logos”) far more than can be said about Zurvanite Zoroastrianism. It was the fact that these later Nestorian Christians were so deeply familiar with the Greek language and Greek philosophy that enabled them to make these translations into Arabic. So, no the Nestorians were primarily not “Western” as those political and cultural connections had become somewhat severed by the schism and Islamic conquests, but it was their understanding of a Western language and philosophy that made them so important.
