Islam kuda tunggangan politik NA dan dia dan penyokongnya pula menjadi kuda tunggangan DAP. NA is beyond recall. Nonetheless, things need to be said and stand corrected for that is required of Muslims otherwise we are deemed as collaborators. At stake also is Malay unity and hence survival.
On Point 38: Alfarabi (Abu Nasr Muhammad Ibn Muhammad Ibn Tarkhan Ibn Awzalagh al-Farabi, b.870-d.950) widely referred as "the second teacher" ie. second after Socrates was born in Turkestan. He first studied Islamic jurisprudence and music in Bukhara, then moved to Marv to study logic with a Nestorian Christian monk, Yuhanna Ibn Haylan.
Around 905, Alfarabi left Baghdad for Byzantium to study Greek sciences and philosophy for 8 years. He was among the first to explore the tensions between the philosophy of classical Greece and that of Islam, as well as religion generally.
Alfarabi's interest in mathematics is evidenced in commentaries on the 'Elements' of Euclid and 'Almagest' of Ptolemy, as well as writings on the history and theory of music. His political writings on the 'Philosophy of Plato and Aristotle' rendered him as the founder of Islamic political philosophy. He died in Damascus.
