Arabs Were the Ones Who Transmitted Knowledge to India

The Arabs were contributors to the transfer of sciences from the Arab East to India before the Prophetic mission.

Samuel Barrett Miles states that Arab traders were the reason for the transfer of sciences from the Arab East to India, and they were the cause of the worldly sciences that India possessed.

Scientific communication between India and the Arabs continued.

The researcher Crispin Bates mentioned that the Hindu Gupta dynasty, which ruled India from 320 to 547 CE, had numerous relations with the Arabs and acquired astronomical and mathematical sciences from them (perhaps referring to the Lakhmids and Ghassanids). Through these Arab sciences, they developed navigation and trade throughout the Indian Ocean.
