One great cause of the decline and fall of the Muslim society was that the Muslims had lost their dynamics character and they had reached a dead end. There was no creative activity in the field of science or in the realm of thought and ideas. The Muslims could not see the dynamic force of the new knowledge in Europe.
Any society that ceases to be creative and falls in to rigid traditionalism loses its vitality and progressivism. The world in which the Muslims had built an empire and sustained it had changed.
The English and other European nations were making much development in the knowledge of science and techniques of organization. They had developed a strength that defiled resistance.
