I believe the concept of zero was sourced from.Hindu minds, Y.
Algebra, however, is commonly sourced as a Moslem invention. Do you have any info that disputes this?
Arabs have always made many, great, self aggrandising, claims.

the algebra of india Quote:Give Indians proper credit for Algebra
During his speech on June 4 in Cairo, Egypt, President Barack Obama gave credit to Muslims for invention of many things, including algebra. I would like to bring out the facts about the history of Algebra.
http://indianrealist.wordpress.com/2010/01/26/give-indians-proper-credit-for-alg... Quote:How Arabs "invented" Algebra?
Arabs assure the world that they gave to it the great scientists and poets who invented practically all, since paper and ”Arabic” numerals to algebra and coca- cola. I used to take these stories for granted because my teachers taught me so, but then I decided to check if it´s true. This is what I found.
The Paper: It was a Chinese invention of the first century A.D. and it reached the Middle East via the Battle of Talas (near Tashkent) in 751, when some Chinese paper makers were captured by the Arabs.
The Mathematics: In the late eighth century, an Indian merchant brought to Baghdad two seminal mathematical works. One was the Brahmasphuta Siddhanta, known to Arabs as the Sindhind, the work of the great seventh-century Indian mathematician Brahmagupta. This contained early ideas about al-jabr, to give algebra its Arabic name. It was this work that Muhammad ibn-Musa al-Khwarizmi in the ninth century was to expand on so successfully. Khwarizmi became known as "the father of algebra" and gave his name to algorithms.
The same Indian merchant also brought a manuscript that introduced for the first time outside India the nine Hindu numerals we use to this day and are now called Arabic numerals. (Before that, numbers were written out as words or notated with letters of the alphabet.) This document also contained the first mention of the 0, which the Arabs called zephirum, from which our words zero and cipher are derived.
Of course, Muslim-born scientists did some improvement or improvisation to that ancient science they got from Greeks, Indians and Chinese. In modern time, Japanese are known to be the practitioners of that policy; they built their success on copying and improving the inventions made long before them. The Japanese cars are considered to be among the best in the world, but nobody says the car is the Japanese invention, right?
And another `roblem. Arabs say these scientitsts were all Muslims, and the world, accustomed to associate Muslims with Arabs, automatically think they were Arabs. But it´,s again, a lie. Al-Khwarizmi was not Arab, he was from Uzbekistan; Al-Razi was Persian, from Tehran; Al-Ghazzali – a Persian, too, (Al-Tabari was from Tabristan; Al-Farabi was from Turkistan; Al-Biruni was an Uzbek from Khwarizm; Ibn Sina was from Bukhara, Central Asia); Ibn Rushd was from Cordoba, Spain)...
And where are those “Great Arab Muslim scientists “ whose inventions made the revolution in the world?
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20110125114906AAE4mGc How can algebra be a muslim invention when people were doing algebra hundreds of years before Mohammad invented Islam?
If we look at the timeline of algebra we can see muslims are bullshit artists with the claim they invented it.
www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_algebra Quote:Diophantus of Alexandria sometimes called the father of Algebra was a greek mathematician, he was doing algebra over 400 years before Mohammad invented Islam.
www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diophantus The Islamic golden age came from conquered cultures, the arabs conquered Persia where the majority of the atheist scientists are from, the arabs conquered India and stole their mathematics.
The cultures that were conquered had their works stolen and passed off as islamic work.
When there was no more gold to conquer the islamic golden age came to a shuddering halt.
Islam originated in Saudi Arabia so where are the arab muslim scientists, you would have more luck trying to find a turd under a rocking horse.
Why are all the so called golden age scientists something other than arab?
Mohammad was a thief a highway robber and a murderer who stole from the trade caravans that passed between Syria and Arabia to finance the ummah when he went to Medina.
Why does allah need 20% of all war booty, Mohammad was a fraud.
