Invented by Muslim’s used by the world.
In 9th century Spain, Muslim inventor Abbas ibn Firnas designed a flying machine -- hundreds of years before da Vinci drew plans of his own.
so i know we have heard a lot from our parents, grandparents, teachers and historians as to how great the Muslims were and how they invented most of the things. You must have also heard about Muslim’s being really good eye doctors, dentists and flying around on glider kind of things. Some of them must have looked to you like jokes, to me they sometimes felt that way as theres a famous qoute that history usually is Biased. So it depends on who is writing it. But this latest post that i found on London, Englands CNN online edition opened my eyes and so will it do with you. Read on for learning a whole lot about our religious heritage and knowing how we were different than we are now and how education and research was much more important to us when we were not just terrorism or Oil gifted nations.

Top 5 richest Pakistani’s.
Pakistan is full of shady billionaires and millionaires who cannot be judged or discovered as to the close to non existent financial legalities that exist and the ease with which they can be avoided have never allowed us to know the full potential of powerful and influential people that exist here. People try to avoid coming in the limelight because with changing governments and directions of the government machinery they want to avoid taxes and other legal actions.
Pakistan would have had names much bigger then this if Bhutto had not hit the biggest magnates of our economic development with his nationalization scheme. We would have had people with the charisma of Tata and Birla groups who are developing unhampered rather supported by their governments. But alas life does change for people and it did, no consistency has killed some of the biggest and brought newer administration supported guys and some administration bred and fed guys which you will understand when you see the list.
We have not done much of a background search as to where this money came from or what were the means but you will get an idea yourself as to how people have changed after being in Administration and how they were before, but some people here are real business figures of immense potential and ask for nothing but respect for what they have done for the country.
