Arabic works also played an important role in the transmission of mathematics to Europe during the 10th to 12th centuries.[2]

Dr. Sally P. Ragep, an historian of science in Islam, estimates that "tens of thousands" of Arabic manuscripts in mathematical sciences and philosophy remain unread, which give studies which "reflect individual biases and a limited focus on a relatively few texts and scholars"[
