The intellectual achievements of the Abbasid caliphs cannot be overemphasised. It covered a wide range of fields, science, literature, and the preservation and dissemination of knowledge. It not only laid the foundations for today's scientific developments, but also left a valuable legacy for the Islamic world that propelled the Islamic Golden Age to its zenith, and also had a profound impact on the European Renaissance. This era of high scientific and cultural prosperity cannot be separated from an academic institution, the House of Wisdom. Factors such as economic development, trade prosperity, political clarity, supportive rulers and social stability at that time combined to promote the creation of the House of Wisdom and its step-by-step growth into the most important academic centre of the time. The House of Wisdom was not only a centre for academic exchange, but also acted as a translation centre, an education centre and a resource centre, among other roles, and drove the scientific and cultural progress of the period.
