May be you should also see the photographs of those muslim inventors. Pure Islamic dress, long beard, turban etc., they were all practising muslims.
They were inventors and Islam didn't come in their way. Rather Islam was catalyst for their inventions.
Today Muslims who have capability to invent think Islam to be extra baggage, they think one cannot progress in duniya with Islam . They are missing the catalyst of Islam.
Islam makes a man perfect, perfect to execute any thing in duniya.
Let me quote an example.
One starts a salah, now he is bound to finish the salah he made intentions for. One starts fasting from dawn, he is bound to finish the fasting till sunset. He cannot run away in between due to any reason. This helps a person who starts a research with great enthusiasm and zeal, but he has to maintain that till the end results are achieved.
Secondly all inventors should have the quality of zuhd (contentment), their friends and relatives may be flying round the globe, big cars, villas, costly dresses, good respect in the society etc., which these guys can afford by jumping to commercial jobs. But Poor inventor has to be content with his hut. But he may get name and fame after the inventions, but not money. Normally scientist are paid with peanuts, it is their internal urge to get result keeps them moving. In Islam practising zuhd is simple.
So brother in a nutshell Islam did help in inventions and continues to help in inventions, but there are no takers.
